In silico and in vivo discovery of antioxidant sea cucumber peptides with antineurodegenerative properties

Since oxidative stress is often associated with neurodegenerative diseases, antioxidants are likely to confer protection against neurodegeneration. Despite an increasing number of food-derived peptides being identified as antioxidants, their antineurodegenerative potentials remain largely unexplored. Here, a sea cucumber peptide preparation - the peptide-rich fraction of <3 kDa (UF<3K) obtained by ultrafiltration from
