Two Saponins From Liquorice Reverse Secondary Structure Modifications of Lysozyme and Mitigate Cytotoxicity and Inflammatory Responses in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yesJournal of Food Quality, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Natural lysozyme (N‐Lyso) is an important natural preservative widely used in the food industry and biomedical fields. However, the specific properties and safety of lysozyme after secondary structure modification (M‐Lyso) are still poorly understood. Compared to N‐Lyso, M‐Lyso at the same concentration exhibits increased protease sensitivity, reduced ...
