Abstract
ABSTRACT This study investigated the hypoglycaemic activity of Porphyra yezoensis polysaccharides (PPs). Forty eight KKAy mice were randomly assigned to four groups: one control group gavaged once daily with distilled water and three treatment groups gavaged once daily with different doses of PPs (100, 300 and 500 mg/kg) for 6 weeks. PPs administration decreased body weight, serum insulin, glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and intestinal α-amylase activity, increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and oral glucose tolerance. Intestinal α-amylase activities were positively correlated with serum glucose levels. Results indicated that PPs had hypoglycaemic activity and might be used for diabetes mellitus treatment.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Aquatic Food Product Technology publishes research papers, short communications, and review articles concerning the application of science and technology and biotechnology to all aspects of research, innovation, production, and distribution of food products originating from the marine and freshwater bodies of the world. The journal features articles on various aspects of basic and applied science in topics related to:
-harvesting and handling practices-
processing with traditional and new technologies-
refrigeration and freezing-
packaging and storage-
safety and traceability-
byproduct utilization-
consumer attitudes toward aquatic food.
The Journal also covers basic studies of aquatic products as related to food chemistry, microbiology, and engineering, such as all flora and fauna from aquatic environs, including seaweeds and underutilized species used directly for human consumption or alternative uses. Special features in the journal include guest editorials by specialists in their fields and book reviews covering a wide range of topics.
