Abstract

Capsaicin has been shown to affect lipid metabolism. However, it is currently not known whether capsaicin would lower the intestinal absorption of cholesterol. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the effect of intraduodenally infused capsaicin on the lymphatic absorption of cholesterol and lipids in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 300-350 g were starved for 16 hr and the mesenteric lymph duct was cannulated. Each rat was infused at 3.0 mL/hr for 8 hr via the duodenal catheter with a lipid emulsion, which contained 33.3 kBq [$^{14}C$]-cholesterol, 20.7 μmol cholesterol, 452 μmol triolein, 3.1 μmol $\alpha$-tocopherol, and 396.0 μmol Na-taurocholate without (control) or with 5.0 mg capsaicin in 24 mL PBS buffer (pH 6.4). Simultaneously, lymph was collected hourly for 8 hr. There was no significant difference in lymph flow between the groups. However, the lymphatic absorption of 14C-cholesterol for 8 hr was significantly lower in rats infused with capsaicin than in those infused with no capsaicin. Also, the output of oleic acid for 8 hr was significantly decreased by capsaicin. However, the intestinal absorption of $\alpha$-tocopherol did not differ between the groups. The results indicate that the luminal infusion of capsaicin inhibits the intestinal absorption of cholesterol and lipids in rats.

본 연구는 capsaicin 투여가 콜레스테롤을 포함한 지방의 소장 흡수율에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 조사하기 위해서 설계되었다. 지방의 소장 흡수율을 측정하기 위해서 흰쥐 소장 지방 흡수율 측정모델을 이용하여, 쥐의 십이지장으로 capsaicin이 포함된 지질유화액을 8시간 동안 지속적으로 주 입하면서 8시간 동안 림프관으로 분비되는 14C-cholesterol, α-tocopherol, 지방산을 분석하여 capsaicin에 의한 영향을 비교하였다. 8시간 동안 분비된 림프액의 양은 대조군과 capsaicin군 간에 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. α-tocopherol의 흡수율에서도 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 그러나 총 8시간 그리고 시간대별 14C-cholesterol 흡수율은 대조군과 비교하였을 때 capsaicin군에서 유의적인 차이로 감소되는 경향을 보였다. 또한 중성지방의 흡수율의 비교에서도 팔미트산, 스테아르산, 아라키돈산, DHA의 흡수율은 두 군 간에 유의적인 차이가 없었으나 지방유화액을 통해 주입한 올레인산의 흡수율에서는 유의적인 감소현상을 보였다. 결론적으로, capsaicin의 응용성은 비만 치료 및 지방대사 조절과 관련해 특히, 소장 지방 흡수대사에 치중한 식이적인 수단의 근거로써 활용이 기대된다.
