Cowpea bean β-vignin-derived AQQSY peptide exerts an anticancer effect by inducing cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase and modulating apoptotic signals

The anticancer effect of digested β-vignin and pure peptides from cowpea beans was investigated in cultivated human colon cancer cells. The effect of AQQSY on the cell cycle was similar to that of palbociclib, suggesting that AQQSY may function as a CDK-6-targeting agent. AQQSY peptide reduced the p...
