This study was designed to evaluate the effects of fructose(F) or sucrose(S) and guar gum intake on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in 15-week-old male Goto-Kakizaki(GK) rats. Fifty rats were randomly assigned to 5 groups which were different in carbohydrate(25% of carbohydrate) and fiber(5% w/w) sources. The carbohydrate(CHO) sources of each group were comstarch(control group, 100% of CHO), fructose with cellulose(F), fructose with guar gum(FG), sucrose with cellulose(S), and sucrose with guar gum(SG). Each group was fed exterimental diet for 4 weeks. We measured food intake, body weight gain, adipose tissues weight and organs weight. We conducted oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) and measured plasma insulin concentration to examine carbohydrate metabolism. To evaluate lipid metabolism, we measured the lipid profile of plasma, liver and feces. Food intake and weight gain of FG or SG groups tended to be less than those of F or S groups. Perirenal and epididymal fat pad weights of SG group were significantly lower than those of S group and those of FG group tended to be lower than those of F group. In OGTT, blood glucose values of F or S groups were significantly higher than those of C group, and FG or SG groups tended to be lower than those of F or S groups during the experimental time. The area under the curve(AUC) of C group was significantly highest among the groups, AUC and plasma insulin concentration of FG or SG groups tended to be lower than those of F or S groups. Plasma and hepatic triglyceride (TG) of FG and SG groups were significantly lower than those of F and S groups, plasma and hepatic total lipid(TL) and total cholesterol(TC) of FG and SG groups tended to be lower than those of F and S groups. Fecal TL, TG and TC of FG or SG groups tended to be higher than those of F and S groups. In conclusion, intake of guar gum should improve carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in partial substitution of fructose or sucrose for cornstarch in GK rats.

The present study aimed to investigate the feasibility of using a diet low in lysine content as a means for increasing the intramuscular fat (IMF) content and pork muscle quality of finishing pigs. Thirty-two crossbred gilts and barrows weighing approximately 80 kg were fed either a low-lysine diet (0.60%; Low-lys) or a control diet (0.80% lysine; Med-lys) under a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. The animals were slaughtered at a 132-kg body weight (BW) on average, followed by physicochemical analyses and sensory evaluation on Longissimus lumborum (LL) and Semitendinosus (ST) muscles. The average daily gain (ADG) did not differ between the Med-lys and Low-lys groups. However, ADG exhibited a tendency of sex × diet interaction (p = 0.09), being greater for barrows vs. gilts on the Low-lys diet (p < 0.05), but not on the Med-lys diet. Backfat thickness adjusted for 132-kg BW also exhibited the interaction; it was greater for the Low-lys vs. Med-lys group within gilts but tended to be less for the former in barrows (p = 0.08). The IMF content was not influenced by the diet or sex in either LL or ST. The a^*, b^*, and Warner-Bratzler Shear Force values and fatty acid composition were influenced by the sex or diet in either or both of the muscles, but the treatment effects did not apparently influence the meat quality. Sensory scores for the flavor, juiciness, tenderness, umami, and palatability of cooked muscle were not influenced by the diet in either LL or ST. When the LL and ST data were pooled, scores for those sensory attributes were positively correlated with the IMF content, which was associated with overall greater IMF contents and greater sensory scores for ST vs. LL. Collectively, the Low-lysine diet seemingly elicited the intended lysine deficiency in gilts as indicated by the increased BFT due to the diet. However, the Low-lys diet was not effective for increasing the IMF deposition or eating quality of the pork muscle of finishing pigs slaughtered at high BW probably because its lysine content was not low enough to elicit either outcome.

Minerals is required small amounts among various nutrients, but it has a significant impact on sow longevity and reproduction performance. This study was carried out to see the beneficial effects of marine-derived Ca-Mg complex on the reproductive performance of sows during four-parity periods. Seventy-two gilts ([Yorkshire × Landrace] × Duroc), with an average body weight of 181 kg, were randomly allocated to three groups; CON (basal diet), 0.3LC (CON - MgO - 0.3% limestone + 0.4% Ca-Mg complex), and 0.7LC (CON - MgO - 0.7% limestone + 0.4% Ca-Mg complex). During parity 3 and 4, the expression level of SCD gene was lower in the umbilical cord of piglets born to 0.3LC and 0.7LC sows compared with the CON sows. During parity 2, 3 and 4, SLC2A2 and FABP4 gene expressions were higher in the umbilical cord of piglets born to 0.7LC sows and the placenta of sows from 0.3LC groups, respectively. Ca-Mg complex increased (p < 0.05) Ca and Mg concentrations in sows and their piglets' serum as well as in colostrum regardless of parities. The serum vitamin D concentration was higher (p < 0.05) in their first parity, whereas serum prolactin and estrogen concentrations were higher (p < 0.05) during the fourth and third parity, respectively. The growth hormone concentrations were higher (p < 0.05) in the piglets born to sows during the first and second parity. The fat and immunoglobulin A (IgA) concentrations in colostrum were higher (p < 0.05) during the third and fourth parity, respectively. A reduction (p < 0.05) in salivary cortisol, epinephrine, and norepinephrine concentrations was observed in 0.3LC and 0.7LC sow groups compared with CON after farrowing regardless of parity, however before farrowing, a reduction in norepinephrine was observed. Before farrowing, the epinephrine and norepinephrine concentrations were higher (p < 0.05) during the first and second parity. After farrowing, the concentration of these hormones was higher during the second parity. Taken together, sows' parity and dietary Ca-Mg complex supplementation influenced serum metabolites, colostrum nutrients, stress hormones as well as the gene expressions related to lipid and glucose metabolism.

대두 이소플라본은 갱년기 증상에 대한 유익한 효과 때문에 폐경여성들의 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 연구는 난소절제 쥐에서 대두 이소플라본인 제니스테인과 수영운동의 동시처리(Gen+SE)가 제니스테인 단독처리(Gen)와 수영운동 단독처리(SE)에 비해 비만과 간 기능 개선에 유익한 시너지 효과를 나타낼 것인지를 조사하였다. 난소절제 쥐는 무작위로 대조군(Con), Gen, SE 및 Gen+SE으로 나누어 8주 동안 고지방식이를 섭취하였다. 몸무게, 백색지방조직의 무게, 간 조직의 지질추적 및 혈청 속 ALT와 AST 수치를 조사한 결과, Con에 비해 Gen과 SE는 감소하였고 Gen+SE는 Gen과 SE에 비해 더 효과적으로 감소하였다. 간 조직에서 염증성 사이토카인인 IL-6와 TNF-𝛼 유전자의 발현은 Con에 비해 Gen과 SE 모두에서 감소하였고, Gen+SE는 Gen과 SE에 비해 더욱 감소하였다. 그러나 adiponectin 유전자의 발현은 반대의 결과가 나타났다. 간 조직에서 지방산 산화와 관련된 유전자의 발현은 Con에 비해 Gen과 SE에서 증가하였고 Gen+SE는 Gen과 SE에 비해 더 증가하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 대두 이소플라본과 수영운동의 상호작용은 난소절제 비만 쥐에서 비만 조절과 저하된 간 기능 개선에 매우 효과적이며, 이것은 난소절제 쥐에서 간의 지방산 산화를 촉진함으로써 발생한 것이라는 것을 제안한다.

본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 2015년부터 2018년도 자료를 활용하여 우리나라 만 19세 이상 성인의 KHEI와 복부비만의 관련성 및 hs-CRP의 매개 효과를 분석한 연구이다. 한국 성인 남성의 경우 허리둘레 90 cm 이상, 여성은 허리둘레 85 cm 이상인 경우에 복부비만군으로 정의하였다. 남성에서 복부비만군은 2,587명, 정상군은 5,007명이였고 여성의 복부비만군은 2,869명, 정상군은 7,307명이였다. KHEI, hs-CRP, 복부비만의 연관성 분석에서는 모든 공변량을 보정하였을 때 남성의 KHEI는 복부비만과 유의한 연관이 없었지만, hs-CRP와 음의 연관성이 있었다. 여성의 경우, 복부비만과 hs-CRP 모두 음의 연관성이 관찰되었다. 또한, 남성과 여성에서 hs-CRP 위험군 (> 1.0 mg/L) 이 hs-CRP 정상군 (≤ 1.0 mg/L)보다 복부비만 유병률이 유의하게 높았다. Bootstrapping을 이용한 매개효과 분석에서는 KHEI와 복부비만 관계에서 hs-CRP가 매개 효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났으며 공변량을 단계적으로 보정하였을때 증가하는 양상이 나타났다. 결론적으로, 본 연구 결과는 균형잡힌 식생활를 통한 높은 식사의 질이 hs-CRP에 영향을 미쳐 복부비만 예방에 중요한 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다.

본 연구에서는 정향과 마가목 복합물 (SS)의 항비만 효과를 알아보기 위해 실험을 진행하였다. SS 투여는 3T3-L1 세포 내 TG와 TC가 유의적으로 감소하는 효과를 나타냈으며, 지질 합성 관련 유전자와 지방산 산화 관련 유전자 발현을 조절하는 효과를 보여주었다. 비만이 유도된 C57BL/6 mice에서 SS 투여는 혈청 내 leptin 호르몬 수치를 감소시켰으며, AMPK/ACC/SREBP-1 경로를 경유하여 TG 합성을 억제하였다. 또한, 조직병리학적 분석을 통해 지질 축적과 지방세포의 크기가 감소된 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 SS는 비만의 예방과 치료를 위한 잠재력을 갖춘 소재로 사료된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of feeding frequency on a sow's reproductive performance and stress response during gestation. A total of twenty multiparous sows (Yorkshire × Landrace) were used in a completely randomized design based on their parity, body weight (BW), and backfat thickness (BFT), and the sows were allotted to two different feeding systems: 1) once daily feeding (OF) and 2) twice daily feeding (TF) in corn-soybean meal based diets. The gestation diet was formulated to contain 3,265 kcal of metabolizable energy (ME) / kg, 12.90% of crude protein (CP), and 0.75 % of total lysine. The lactation diet was formulated to contain 3,265 kcal of ME / kg, 16.80% of CP, and 1.08% of total lysine and provided ad libitum during lactation. In gestation, sow BFT and BF changes were not affected by feeding frequency, but higher BW and BW gain from day 35 to 90 and day 35 to 110 were observed in OF sow (p < 0.10). In lactation, feeding frequency did not influence on BW, BW gain, BFT, BF changes, average daily feed intake, and wean-to-estrus interval. Also, there were no differences in litter size, litter weight and piglet weight in lactating sows. OF sows had higher (p < 0.05; p < 0.10) protein, solid-not-fat, and total solid concentrations in colostrum compared to TF sows, while OF sows had a lower (p < 0.05) lactose concentration in colostrum compared to TF sows. Sows in OF showed significantly lower average daily water consumption (ADWC) from day 35 to 110 of gestation (p < 0.05). While there were no significant differences in stereotypic behaviors and salivary cortisol levels during gestation between treatments, the OF sows showed less time spending on the activity at day 105 (p < 0.05). In conclusion, reduced feeding frequency increased BW gain during gestation, decreased activation time, and changed the colostrum composition. This information may contribute to the understanding of the physiological and behavioral change of gestating sows by manipulating feeding frequency.
