This study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of a new combination of root extracts of the (maca) plant, known for its nutritional and energizing features as well as its antioxidant properties, on nutrient digestibility and nutrient transporters expression.
A total of 28 Sprague-Dawley rats (8-week-old) were divided into four groups: (i) control, (ii) ., (iii) high-fat diet (HFD), and (iv) HFD+. Maca was given to the rats as a powdered combination of the plant roots with a daily dose of 40 mg per kg BW. Maca administration significantly increased the digestibility of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), and ether extract (EE), and some nutrient transporter (Pept1/2, Fatp1, Glut1/2, and Sglt1)-expressions compared with non-treated control and HFD groups in the jejunum and ileum tissues ( < .0001).
Maca supplementation improved the digestibility of nutrients and expressions of nutrient transporters in the small intestine of the rats. These results indicate the positive communication between maca consumption and nutrient absorption in the small intestines of the animals.
本研究旨在调查玛咖植物根提取物的一种新组合对营养物质消化率和营养转运蛋白表达的影响。玛咖以其营养、提神特性以及抗氧化性能而闻名。
总共28只8周龄的斯普拉格-道利大鼠被分为四组：（i）对照组，（ii）……，（iii）高脂饮食组（HFD），以及（iv）HFD +组。将玛咖作为植物根的粉末组合给予大鼠，每日剂量为每千克体重40毫克。与未处理的对照组和HFD组相比，给予玛咖显著提高了空肠和回肠组织中干物质（DM）、有机物（OM）、粗蛋白（CP）和乙醚提取物（EE）的消化率，以及一些营养转运蛋白（Pept1/2、Fatp1、Glut1/2和Sglt1）的表达（P <.0001）。
补充玛咖提高了大鼠小肠中营养物质的消化率和营养转运蛋白的表达。这些结果表明食用玛咖与动物小肠中营养物质吸收之间存在积极联系。
