Abstract
After soymilk fermented by L. plantarum HFY09, the bound soybean isoflavones content was reduced, but free soybean isoflavones and peptides increased. In vivo results show that L. plantarum HFY09-fermented soymilk increased the T-SOD, MDA, GSH-Px, GSH, CAT, and NO in the serum, liver, and brain tissues of mice. The aforementioned soymilk also increased the Col I and hyaluronic acid, and reduced the contents of Col III, H2O2, and AGEs in the skin. L. plantarum HFY09-fermented soymilk upregulated Nrf2, HO-1, NOS1, NOS3, SOD1, SOD2, CAT, Nqol, Gclm expression in the liver and the spleen, reduced the NOS2 expression, and upregulated SOD1 SOD2, CAT, GSH-Px, TIMP1, and TIMP2 expression in skin, downregulated MMP3, and MMP9 expression. These results show that L. plantarum HFY09-fermented soymilk could effectively alleviate aging in D-galactose-induced aging mice, the mechanism may be related to the activation of Nrf2 signaling pathway by soy isoflavone aglycone and small molecule peptides.
