Identification, characterization and resistance to digestion assessment of hemp-derived dipeptidyl-peptidase IV inhibitory peptides (2025)

Hemp seeds (<i>Cannabis sativa</i> L.) are an adequate source of protein. Food-derived peptides exert bioactivity depending on the sequences. In this work, enzymatic hydrolysis with Alcalase (subtilisin) and Flavourzyme was carried out to obtain hemp protein hydrolysates with increased dipeptidyl-pe
