Abstract:
In this study, the residue of
Auricularia heimuer polysaccharide after hot water extraction was used as raw material, and the soluble dietary fiber (HSDF) of
A. heimuer polysaccharide was extracted by compound enzyme method. Its molecular weight, monosaccharide composition and sugar chain composition were analyzed, its water holding capacity, oil holding capacity, swelling power and other physical and chemical properties were detected, and its lipid-lowering activity
in vitro was evaluated by measuring cholesterol adsorption capacity, lipase inhibition rate and cholate binding rate. The obese animal model was constructed by high fat diet (HFD) C57BL/6J mice, and treated with
A. heimuer soluble dietary fiber. The body weight, biochemical indexes, and pathological changes of liver tissue and adipose tissue of HSDF treated obese mice were evaluated, and its lipid-lowering efficacy in obese mouse model was explored. Results showed that the relative molecular weight of HSDF was 4.14×10
5 Da, which was a mixture of mannose, glucuronic acid, glucose, galactose, xylose and fucose. The molar ratio was 1808.87:0.00278:4.43:2.13:2.84:5.01. The average water holding capacity of HSDF was (11.62±0.302) g·g
−1, the average oil holding capacity was (2.95±0.259) g·g
−1, the average swelling capacity was (12.7±0.434) ml·g
−1, and the adsorption rate of intestinal cholesterol was 6.63 mg·g
−1; When the concentration is 1.2 mg·mL
−1, the binding rate of sodium glycocholate and sodium taurocholate can reach 92.91% and 90.93%. In addition, HSDF with a concentration of 2.0 mg·mL
−1 has a 75% inhibition rate of pancreatic lipase, and has good lipid-lowering activity
in vitro. At the same time, HSDF can significantly (
P<0.05) improve the organ index of HFD mice, improve the lipid accumulation, inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver and adipocyte enlargement in adipose tissue of HFD mice, and improve the cell area of white adipose tissue of epididymis by more than 50%, which has a good lipid-lowering effect
in vivo. The results can provide data support and theoretical basis for the subsequent research on dietary fiber of
A. heimuer and the research and development of functional food.
