ABSTRACT
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are the main probiotics currently available in the markets and are essential for maintaining gut health. To guarantee probiotic function, it is imperative to boost the culture yield of probiotic organisms, ensure the sufficient viable cells in commercial products, or develop effective prebiotics. Recent studies have shown that protein hydrolysates and their derived peptides promote the proliferation of probiotic in vitro and the abundance of gut flora. This article comprehensively reviews different sources of protein hydrolysates and their derived peptides as growth-promoting factors for probiotics including Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Saccharomyces. We also provide a preliminary analysis of the characteristics of LAB proteolytic systems focusing on the correlation between their elements and growth-promoting activities. The structure-activity relationship and underlying mechanisms of growth-promoting peptides and their research perspectives are thoroughly discussed. Overall, this review provides valuable insights into growth-promoting protein hydrolysates and their derived peptides for proliferating probiotics in vivo or in vitro, which may inspire researchers to explore new options for industrial probiotics proliferation, dairy products fermentation, and novel prebiotics development in the future.
