摘要
Mice (20.0 +/- 2.0 g, n = 48 per group) were given 30 days oral administration of polysaccharide-from Plantago asiatica L. seeds at the dose of 04 g/kg body weight by gavage to investigate the effects of the polysaccharide on mouse colon. Results showed that the concentrations of total short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), acetic, propionic, and n-butyric acids in mouse colonic content of polysaccharide treated group were all significantly higher than that of control group (water) (p < 0.05). In addition, moisture of mouse colonic content of polysaccharide treated group was also notably higher than that of the control group (p < 0.05) indicating the intake of polysaccharide from P. asiatica L. resulted in a stronger water-holding capacity for colonic content throughout the experimental period. Furthermore, a decreased pH (from 7.5 +/- 0.1 to 7.2 +/- 0.1) was observed in mouse colon of the polysaccharide treated group compared with the control group (pH from 7.5 +/- 0.1 to 7.5 +/- 0.1). These results suggested that the intake of the polysaccharide from P. asiatica L. might be beneficial for the colon health.
