The lipid-transfer protein Ns-LTP1 was isolated from Nigella sativa seeds using a complex of chromatographic methods. Its effect on the course of experimental ulcerative colitis in rats was studied. The effect of biologically active peptides classified as lipid-transfer proteins on the course of experimental ulcerative colitis in rats was compared to that of sulfasalazine. It was found that lipid-transfer protein Ns-LTP1 had pronounced antiulcer, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects on a model of acute experimental colitis in rats and helped to restore body mass and temperature of the animals. This indicated it is promising for creation of a composition based on lipid-transfer protein Ns-LTP1 for therapy of inflammatory diseases of the colon, namely nonspecific ulcerative colitis.
