Digested protein isolate from fresh and stored Carioca beans reduced markers of atherosclerosis in oxidized LDL-induced THP-1 macrophages

Oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) and its interaction with lectin type ox-LDL receptor (LOX-1) determine atherosclerosis progression. The potential of peptides from digested protein isolate (DPI) derived from fresh and stored Carioca bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) to prevent ox-LDL induced inflammation in human T...
