Effects of pulse electric field (PEF) on antioxidant activity of pine nut (Pinus koraiensis) peptide were discussed using H2O2-induced HepG2 cells and changes of peptide structures were measured by MIR, NMR and CD spectra. Using HPLC-MS/MS, a novel peptide was identified as QDHCH. After PEF treatment the DPPH and ABTS radical inhibition, and CAA values of QDHCH were increased to 85.13%±0.17%, 95.45%±0.12%, and 4670.10μmol of quercetin equivalents/100g. The PEF-treated QDHCH has better protective oxidative stress inhibitory of 74.22±3.70%, and the T-SOD, CAT, GSH-Px and GSH-Rx activities in cells were significantly increased by 91.92, 7.98, 18.5 and 18.79U/mg prot, while the MDA content was decreased to 8.45±0.71U/mg prot compared with H2O2 damaged group. In addition, the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of QDHCH was increased by 10.53%; the basic structure was not changed by PEF, while the influenced secondary structures may induce the antioxidant activity improvement in HepG2 cells.
