Peptides from hydrolysate of lantern fish (Benthosema pterotum) proved neuroprotective in vitro and in vivo

Benthosema pterotum is an underutilized deep-sea by-catch fish. Its protein hydrolysate (BPH) showed antioxidative activity. The BPH consisting of 13.2 mg/g of active peptides, Phe-Tyr-Tyr and Asp-Trp, significantly reduced H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptotic cell death in human...
