Research progress on the mechanism of food-derived antihypertensive peptides
In this review, several mechanisms of antihypertensive peptides derived from food and its by-products were summarized. Mechanisms based on the RAAS system such as ACE/Ang Ⅱ/AT1R signaling pathways and ACE2/Ang (1-7)/MasR signaling pathways were included.

Alteration and release of aliphatic compounds by the polychaete Nereis virens (Sars) experimentally fed with hydrocarbons [PDF]
In the laboratory, marine worms were fed with a mixture of algae and several aliphatic hydrocarbons for 15 days. After ingestion by the worms, 34.9% of hydrocarbons are found in the faeces and only 3.1% accumulated in the gut.

Seaweed Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology [PDF]
Macroscopic marine algae, typically known as macroalgae or seaweeds, form an important living resource of the oceans, as primary producers. People have collected seaweeds for food, both for humans and animals for millennia.
