Abstract This study examined the effects of lyophilized black raspberries (BRB) on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced aberrant crypt foci (ACF), colon tumors, and urinary 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels in male Fischer 344 rats. AOM was injected (15 mg/kg body wt ip) once per week for 2 wk. At 24 h after final injection, AOM-treated rats began consuming diets containing 0%, 2.5%, 5%, or 10% (wt/wt) BRB. Vehicle controls received 5% BRB diet only. Rats were sacrificed 9 33 wk feeding ACF...
Larval sea lamprey inhabit freshwater streams and migrate to oceans or lakes feed after a radical metamorphosis; subsequently, mature adults return spawn. Previous observations suggested that utilize the odor of conspecific larvae select for spawning. Here we report biochemical electrophysiological evidence this is comprised two unique bile acids released by larvae. High performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry demonstrated larval produce release acids, allocholic acid (ACA)...
Objective: Both chitosan and glucomannan have demonstrated hypocholesterolemic effects. A recent study in rats indicates that the combination of two is also a potent agent increases fecal fat excretion. The objective present was to determine effect supplement containing equal amounts on blood lipid concentrations excretion fat, neutral sterols bile acids.Methods: Twenty-one overweight normocholesterolemic subjects (11 males 10 females) were fed 2.4 g/day glucomannan. Prior taking (initial...
Binding of bile acids and phospholipids to a number dietary fibers cholestyramine (CH) within the small intestine was determined. The used were cellulose, wheat bran, oat guar gum (GG), lignin (LG). GG, LG, CH bound significant quantities acids. However, only reduced acid concentration aqueous phase intestinal contents. Significant phospholipid binding found with CH. None test substances significantly quantity solubilized lipid. Multiple regression analysis indicated that total in contents...
Twenty-four sows (12 nulliparous, 12 multiparous) were used to determine soluble fiber (SF) and insoluble (ISF) effects on energy digestibility, N balance, SF ISF digestibility. Experimental diets included a corn-soybean meal control (C; 1.20% SF, 9.78% ISF), 34% oat bran diet high in (HS; 3.02% 10.11% 12% wheat straw (HIS; 1.11% 17.86% 16% sugar beet pulp (HS + HIS; 2.32% 16.08% ISF). Sows assigned randomly within parity group individually fed meet their requirements according the NRC model...
Dietary fiber may contribute to satiety. This study examined the effect of two dietary characteristics, small intestinal contents viscosity and large fermentability, on satiety-and adiposity-related hormones in rats. Diets contained sources that were non-viscous, somewhat viscous, or highly either fermentable non-fermentable, a 2 × 3 factorial design. In fed state (2 h postprandial), rats non-fermentable fibers had significantly greater plasma GLP-1 concentration than fibers. fasted state,...
Given their putative role in chemoprevention, validated methods are needed for quantification of total glucosinolates. Based on the colorimetric reaction ferricyanide with 1-thioglucose, released by alkaline hydrolysis glucosinolates, we developed a simple and sensitive method spectrophotometric glucosinolates cruciferous vegetables. Lyophilized ground vegetables extracted 80% boiling methanol. Extracted isolated using strong anion exchange column then hydrolyzed 2 N NaOH to release...
