Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of different dietary induction models of inulin, resistant starch RS3 and their complexes on the body weight and intestinal flora in mice. Methods A total of 64 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into low-fat control group, low-fat inulin group, low-fat resistant starch RS3 group, low-fat composite group and high-fat control group, high-fat inulin group, high-fat resistant starch RS3 group and high-fat composite group for dietary intervention. The mice were weighed and fresh feces were collected weekly. Diet intervention was continued until the weight of the high-fat control group was more than 14% higher than that of the low-fat control group. The mice were then sacrificed after overnight fasting. Liver and epididymal fat were weighed, and the colon contents were collected for 16S amplicon sequencing analysis. Results In low-fat diet fed mice, the combined induction of inulin and resistant starch RS3 caused a significant decrease in body weight gain. In high-fat diet fed mice, inulin alone and the combined induction both caused a significant reduction in weight gain, and there was no significant difference between the two methods. In the high-fat diet groups, inulin, resistant starch RS3, and the compound could be distinguished by Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium and Alloprevotella respectively. In the low-fat diet groups, inulin, resistant starch RS3, and the composite groups could be distinguished by Coriobacteriaceae_UCG_002, Bacteroides and Helicobacter, respectively. Conclusion Inulin and resistant starch RS3 diet induction can significantly reduce the weight gain of C57BL/6 mice, change the structure of intestinal flora, and show the difference between high-fat and low-fat diets. Inulin and resistant starch RS3 may reduce body weight and promote fat metabolism by changing the structure of intestinal flora.
