Immunomodulatory Actions of Bovine Whey Protein Isolates, Glycomacropeptide, and Their Digests: Insights from Macrophage and Human Studies

Creator:

Olsen, Wyatt

Abstract:

Whey protein isolate (WPI) and glycomacropeptide (GMP) have shown potential immunomodulatory properties. In this study, we investigated their effects on pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion using both in vitro and in vivo models. In LPS-stimulated THP-1-derived macrophages, digested WPI and GMP reduced cytokine expression, while whole GMP increased secretion. The in human...
