| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell damage, caused by excess reactive oxygen species (ROS), is implicated in numerous human diseases. In this study, we prepared a protein film by combing three types of protein, including serum albumin, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase. Because SOD and catalase is an antioxidant enzyme that removes hydrogen peroxide by converting it into water and oxygen, prepared film have the ROS eliminating ability. The anti-inflammatory effect of protein film was evaluated in an ulcerative colitis model induced by dextran sulfate sodium. Results showed that our prepared film contributes to the reduction of inflammation. Our approach using protein film will provide the useful information for the establishment of novel treatment for the inflammatory bowel disease called ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.
