Peptide isolated from Spirulina reduces blood pressure

An Italian group of researchers studied the effect of consuming Spirulina on the reduction of blood pressure. Spirulina is a cyanobacteria considered a “superfood”, with high protein content, iron and other nutrients. Some research has indicated that Spirulina helps control blood glucose and lipid levels., It has anti-inflammatory properties and helps protect against certain types of cancer. Now, el trabajo publicado recientemente en la revista Hypertension muestra que el consumo de Espirulina reduce la presión arterial por medio de la ruta de señalización de fosfatidilinositol 3 recorder (PI3K/ACT). Los investigadores hallaron que un péptido de la Espirulina, SP6, interactúa con esta ruta de señalización liberando óxido nítrico, lo que consecuentemente reduce la presión arterial. De esta manera, los investigadores encontraron una fuente natural para regular positivamente el mecanismo por el cual el óxido nítrico actúa sobre el endotelio de los vasos sanguíneos.
