Core Tip	Bowman-Birk inhibitors (BBI) from legumes, such as soybean, pea, lentil and chickpea, are a class of naturally-occurring serine protease inhibitors with potential anti-inflammatory and chemopreventive properties within the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). BBI are extensively disulphide-linked within proteins and have been demonstrated to be structurally and functionally resistant to the challenges of the GIT in vivo. Recent data suggest that trypsin- and chymotrypsin-like proteases involved in early stages of carcinogenesis should be primary targets in investigating the potential of BBI as colorectal chemopreventive agents; so far, the therapeutic targets as well as action mechanism of BBI remain unknown.
