Abstract:

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important physiological role in the regulation of blood pressure. Currently, many kinds of ACE inhibitory peptides derived from lactoprotein have been prepared. In this paper, the mechanisms and sources of ACE-inhibitory peptides are discussed, and the exploitation and application of ACE-inhibitory peptides in food and clinical field are reviewed.

Key words: ACE-inhibitory peptide, lactoprotein, angiotensin-converting enzyme
