VPP (Val–Pro–Pro) and IPP (Ile–Pro–Pro) are two famous antihypertensive peptides with possible benefits for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The study was aimed to investigate the effect of peptide analogues of VPP and IPP on glucose uptake activity in L6 myotubes. The analogues were designed by replacing the N-terminal, middle, or C-terminal amino acid residues of VPP and IPP with one amino acid at a time from five amino acid groups (polar, nonpolar, basic, acidic, and aromatic amino acids). Among 26 tripeptides tested, IQP, IPQ, VPE, and VEP showed significantly higher glucose uptake activity than their parent peptides, and all were successfully released from rice proteins at the contents of 5415.82 ± 63.34, 1586.77 ± 14.94, 354.07 ± 6.56, and 596.10 ± 2.32 ng/mg dry basis, respectively, and quantified by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (MS)/MS using multiple reaction monitoring. All four peptides were shown to promote glucose uptake via the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase pathway accompanied by glucose transporter type 4 (Glut4) translocation rather than the insulin signaling pathway.
