“…[28] and low when compare with P. thonningii 35.03 [21] but are higher than that of Gnetum africanum (4.60), M. ureans (4.00) and Parinari polyandra. The plants are good source of crude fibre when consumed because adequate intake of dietary fibre can lower the serum cholesterol level, heart disease, hypertension, constipation, diabetes and breast cancer [32].…”

“…Paclitaxel (Taxol) and docetaxel (Taxotere) are currently amongst the most effective clinically available chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer, and particularly ovarian and breast cancers [2][3][4][5][6]. Representative examples further include the aminopeptidase inhibitors bestatin [7,8] and amastatin [9] and an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, microginin [10,11].…”

“…Microginin-565 presented a structure with terminals Ahda and Tyr moieties and exhibited IC 50 within 6.8-13.2 μM which is a benchmark for potent ACEinhibitory drugs (Ishida et al 2000). The M r of the purified microginin and its fragmentation pattern matched with another tetrapeptide, microginin-FR11 isolated from Microcystis sp.…”

“…Treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) antagonists reduced the risk of poststroke death (Heeley et al 2014). Microginins (n =40) are the β-amino-α-hydroxydecanoic acid (Ahda)-containing linear cyanopeptides that inhibit ACE activity due to characteristic terminals Ahda and Tyr moieties (Ishida et al 2000).…”
