Seventeen novel angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides from the protein hydrolysate of Mytilus edulis : isolation, identification, molecular docking study, and protective function on HUVECs

damage by increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and NO levels to decrease the contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde. Therefore, seventeen ACE inhibitory peptides, especially YEGDP and WF, might be used as natural ingredients for the development of products with antihypertensive functions.
