description Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a recurrent inflammatory bowel disease that imposes a severe burden on families and society. In recent years, exploiting the potential of marine bioactive peptides for the treatment of diseases has become a topic of intense research interest. This study revealed the mechanism underlying the protective effect of the dominant polypeptide PKKVV (Pro-Lys-Lys-Val-Val) of Rhopilema esculentum cnidoblasts against DSS-induced UC through a combined analysis of the metagenome and serum metabolome. Specif ically, the polypeptide composition of R. esculentum cnidoblasts was determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS). Molecular docking showed that the dominant peptide PKKVV could bind better with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) than the original ligand. Subsequent animal experiments suggested that PKKVV could modulate disorganized gut microorganisms in mice with UC; affect serum metabolites through the arachidonic acid, glycerophospholipid and linoleic acid metabolism pathways; and further alleviate UC symptoms. This study provides a reference for the comprehensive development of marine bioactive substances and nonpharmaceutical treatments for UC.
