Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effects of a porcine liver protein hydrolysate (PLH) diet on lipid metabolism in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, a model of type II diabetes. OLETF rats (20-wk-old males) were pair-fed with either a PLH diet containing 20% PLH or a casein diet for 14 wk. Dietary PLH significantly lowered serum cholesterol and phospholipid concentrations, mainly by decreasing low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein fractions. Fecal cholesterol was significantly increased in the PLH diet group; however, the total bile acid concentration in the feces was not significantly different between the groups. In addition, the PLH diet significantly decreased serum thiobarbituric acid reactive substance concentrations. These results suggest that dietary PLH exerts hyperlipidemic and antioxidant effects, indicating that it is a novel functional food ingredient.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology is an international medium publishing in English of original work in all branches of nutritional science, food science and vitaminology from any country.
Manuscripts submitted for publication should be as concise as possible and must be based on the results of original research or of original interpretation of existing knowledge not previously published. Although data may have been reported, in part, in preliminary or
abstract form, a full report of such research is unacceptable if it has been or will be submitted for consideration by another journal.
