Abstract
Description
本発明は、腸内細菌叢を改善するために好適に使用される経口組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to oral compositions preferably used to improve the gut microbiota.
腸内細菌叢は、腸内フローラともいわれ、腸内の細菌が構成する体内の生態系である。腸内細菌叢は、腸管上皮を介して宿主と相互作用しており、例えば、便秘、下痢、感染症、アレルギー性疾患、炎症性腸疾患、肥満及び糖尿病などの種々の疾患に関係することが明らかになっている。腸内細菌叢は、個体毎に異なっており、またその個体の健康状態や摂取する飲食物によっても変化し得ることが知られている。例えば、ヒトの肥満時には、腸内細菌叢でBacteroidetes属の細菌の構成比率が低く、Firmicutes(ファーミキューテス門)に属する細菌の構成比率が高いことが知られている。体重の減少に伴って、Bacteroidetes属の細菌の構成比率が高くなり、Firmicutesに属する細菌の構成比率が低下する。このため、腸内細菌叢を改善することで、その個体の健康状態を良好な状態に改善することができるものと考えられており、そのための研究が種々行われている(例えば、特許文献1〜4等)。 The intestinal flora, also called the intestinal flora, is an ecosystem in the body composed of bacteria in the intestine. The gut microbiota interacts with the host via the intestinal epithelium and may be involved in a variety of diseases such as constipation, diarrhea, infections, allergic diseases, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity and diabetes. It has become clear. It is known that the intestinal bacterial flora varies from individual to individual and can change depending on the health condition of the individual and the food and drink ingested. For example, it is known that when humans are obese, the composition ratio of bacteria belonging to the genus Bacteroidetes is low in the intestinal flora, and the composition ratio of bacteria belonging to Firmicutes is high. As the body weight is reduced, the composition ratio of bacteria belonging to the genus Bacteroidetes increases, and the composition ratio of bacteria belonging to Firmicutes decreases. Therefore, it is considered that the health condition of the individual can be improved to a good condition by improving the intestinal bacterial flora, and various studies for that purpose have been conducted (for example, Patent Document 1). ~ 4 mag).
ところで、短鎖脂肪酸(SCFA)は、腸内細菌によって生成される有機酸であり、ヒトをはじめとする哺乳動物の健康維持に欠かせない役割を果たしていることが知られている。ヒトの場合、酢酸、プロピオン酸、及び酪酸の3種が代表的な短鎖脂肪酸であり、ヒト大腸において腸内細菌により作られ、大腸の粘膜上皮から吸収される。酪酸は、大腸上皮細胞のエネルギー源として、酪酸とプロピオン酸は主に肝臓や筋肉で代謝されて利用される。また、短鎖脂肪酸は、大腸において、腸内のpHを低下させることで病原性微生物が生育しにくい環境とし、腸内細菌叢のバランスを整える効果が知られている。その他、腸管上皮のバリア機能を強化し、感染防御の手助けとなること(以上、非特許文献1)、腸管を刺激して腸の蠕動運動を高めて便通を促す(非特許文献2)等の効果が知られている。こうした短鎖脂肪酸の効果に着目して、腸内での短鎖脂肪酸の生成増加を目指した研究も種々行われている(例えば、特許文献5〜6等)。
By the way, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are organic acids produced by intestinal bacteria and are known to play an indispensable role in maintaining the health of mammals including humans. In the case of humans, three types of short-chain fatty acids, acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid, are typical short-chain fatty acids, which are produced by intestinal bacteria in the human large intestine and absorbed from the mucosal epithelium of the large intestine. Butyric acid is used as an energy source for colonic epithelial cells, and butyric acid and propionic acid are mainly metabolized and used in the liver and muscles. In addition, short-chain fatty acids are known to have the effect of adjusting the balance of the intestinal bacterial flora by lowering the pH in the intestine in the large intestine, making it difficult for pathogenic microorganisms to grow. In addition, it strengthens the barrier function of the intestinal epithelium and helps prevent infection (above, Non-Patent Document 1), stimulates the intestinal tract to enhance the peristaltic movement of the intestine, and promotes bowel movement (Non-Patent Document 2). The effect is known. Focusing on the effects of such short-chain fatty acids, various studies aimed at increasing the production of short-chain fatty acids in the intestine have been conducted (for example,
またエクオールは、代表的なイソフラボンであるダイゼインの代謝産物であるO−デスメチルアンゴレンシン(O-DMA)と比較してエストロゲン様作用が高い等の様々な特徴を有する化合物であり、従来から、骨粗鬆症への治療や予防作用(例えば、特許文献7等)、更年期症状の緩和、メタボリックシンドロームの予防、肌のしわやたるみの改善、乳がんなどの予防作用等が報告されている(例えば、非特許文献3等)。またエクオールは、その他にも抗酸化作用(シミの改善、美白)や抗アンドロゲン作用(前立腺がん等の予防、脱毛改善)が報告されている。 In addition, equol is a compound having various characteristics such as high estrogen-like action as compared with O-desmethylangolencin (O-DMA), which is a metabolite of daidzein, which is a typical isoflavone. It has been reported that it has a therapeutic and preventive effect on osteoporosis (for example, Patent Document 7), alleviation of menopausal symptoms, prevention of metabolic syndrome, improvement of wrinkles and sagging of skin, and preventive effect on breast cancer (for example, non-patent). Document 3 etc.). In addition, equol has also been reported to have antioxidant effects (improvement of stains, whitening) and antiandrogen effects (prevention of prostate cancer, improvement of hair loss).
かかるエクオールは、イソフラボンのアグリコンであるダイゼインが腸内で腸内細菌により代謝されることで生成する代謝物である。しかし、腸内細菌叢や腸内のエクオール産生菌の量は人によって区々であり、体内でエクオールを産生する能力は個人差があることが知られている。このため、腸内細菌叢に影響を与えることで、エクオールの産生効率を高める試みもなされている。 Such equol is a metabolite produced by the metabolism of daidzein, which is an aglycone of isoflavone, by intestinal bacteria in the intestine. However, it is known that the amount of the intestinal flora and the amount of equol-producing bacteria in the intestine varies from person to person, and the ability of the body to produce equol varies from person to person. Therefore, attempts have been made to increase the production efficiency of equol by affecting the intestinal bacterial flora.
本発明は、腸内細菌叢を改善するために好適に使用される経口組成物を提供することを課題とする。より詳細には、腸内細菌叢を改善することと同時に、腸内細菌中の短鎖脂肪酸産生菌の存在割合を増加する;腸内細菌中のエクオール産生菌の存在割合を増加する;及び/又は、腸内細菌中の病原性細菌の存在割合を低減することができる、経口組成物を提供することを課題とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide an oral composition suitably used for improving the intestinal bacterial flora. More specifically, it improves the intestinal flora and at the same time increases the abundance of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria; increases the abundance of equol-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria; and / Alternatively, it is an object of the present invention to provide an oral composition capable of reducing the abundance ratio of pathogenic bacteria in the intestinal bacteria.
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決すべく鋭意検討を重ねていたところ、黒大豆種皮抽出物を摂取すると、腸内細菌叢における細菌構成比が変わり、腸内細菌中のエクオール産生菌の存在割合が増加すること、腸内細菌中の短鎖脂肪酸産生菌の存在割合が増加すること、及び/又は、腸内細菌中の病原性菌の存在割合が低下することを見出した。このことから、黒大豆種皮抽出物を摂取することで、腸内細菌叢が改善されて、健康増進を図ることができると考えられる。 As a result of diligent studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors changed the bacterial composition ratio in the intestinal flora when ingesting the black soybean seed coat extract, and the presence of equol-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria. It has been found that the proportion increases, the abundance of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria increases, and / or the abundance of pathogenic bacteria in the intestinal bacteria decreases. From this, it is considered that ingestion of black soybean seed coat extract improves the intestinal bacterial flora and promotes health.

(Action of intestinal bacterial flora improving agent)
The target audience for this improver is humans or non-human animals. It is preferably human. Non-human animals include pets (pets), laboratory animals, and animals kept in zoos and aquariums. By administering (ingesting) this improving agent to humans or non-human animals, the bacterial composition ratio of the intestinal flora of the human or non-human animals is adjusted, and the abundance ratio of bacteria beneficial to the living body is increased. It is possible to reduce the abundance of bacteria that have an adverse effect on the living body. In addition, by reducing the change in the bacterial composition ratio of the intestinal flora caused by ingesting a high-fat diet, especially the increase in the abundance of bacteria that have an adverse effect on the living body, before or near the intake of a high-fat diet. It is possible to return to a state or even better.
本改善剤を摂取することで、腸内細菌叢において、例えば、下記の変化が誘導される。
生体に有益な腸内細菌の存在割合の増加
(A)腸内細菌中のエクオール産生菌の存在割合の増加
本改善剤をヒトまたは非ヒト動物が摂取することで、腸内に存在するエクオール産生菌の存在割合を増加することができる。エクオール産生菌は、体内に摂取されたダイゼイン等のイソフラボンを、よりエストロゲン様活性の高いエクオールに変化させる作用を有する。つまり、本改善剤は、体内に取り込まれることで、腸内に存在するエクオール産生菌の存在割合を増加させて、それによりイソフラボンの代謝や活性化を促進することでエクオール産生を促進する。エクオール産生菌としては、好ましくはAdlercreutzia属の細菌、より好ましくはAdlercreutzia equolifaciensを挙げることができる。
Ingestion of this improving agent induces, for example, the following changes in the intestinal flora.
Increase in the abundance of intestinal bacteria that are beneficial to the living body (A) Increase in the abundance of equol-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria Equol production in the intestine by ingestion of this improving agent by humans or non-human animals The abundance rate of bacteria can be increased. Equol-producing bacteria have the effect of converting isoflavones such as daidzein ingested into the body into equol with higher estrogen-like activity. That is, this improving agent promotes equol production by increasing the abundance ratio of equol-producing bacteria present in the intestine by being taken into the body, thereby promoting metabolism and activation of isoflavones. Examples of the equol-producing bacterium preferably include bacteria of the genus Adlercreutzia, and more preferably Adlercreutzia equoli faciens.
なお、イソフラボンとは、フラボノイドの一種でありダイゼイン及びその類縁体であるグリシテイン、ゲニステインのアグリコン骨格を基本とする化合物の総称である。イソフラボンにはアグリコンの他、配糖体並びにそのアセチル化体、およびマロニル化体を含む。具体的には、イソフラボンアグリコンとしてダイゼイン、グリシテインおよびゲニステイン、イソフラボン配糖体としてダイジン、グリシチンおよびゲニスチン、イソフラボン配糖体のアセチル化体としてアセチルダイジン、アセチルグリシチンおよびアセチルゲニステイン、イソフラボン配糖体のマロニル化体としてマロニルダイジン、マロニルグリシチンおよびマロニルゲニステインが挙げられる。これらのイソフラボンは1種単独で使用してもよく、また2種以上を組み合わせて使用してもよい。イソフラボンを含む可食性素材としては、例えば、イソフラボンを含む植物(例えば、大豆等の豆科植物)のイソフラボン含有部位(大豆、大豆胚軸等)、その処理物(例えば、乾燥物や抽出物)、それらの加工食品(例えば、豆腐、豆乳、発酵豆乳、納豆等)を挙げることができる。 In addition, isoflavone is a kind of flavonoid and is a general term for compounds based on the aglycone skeleton of daidzein and its analogs glycitein and genistein. In addition to aglycone, isoflavones include glycosides, their acetylated products, and malonylated products. Specifically, daidzin, glycitein and genistein as isoflavone aglycon, daidzin, glycitin and genistine as isoflavone glycosides, acetyldaidzin, acetylglycitin and acetylgenistine as acetylated isoflavone glycosides, and malonyl of isoflavone glycosides. Examples include malonyldaidzin, malonylglycitin and malonylgenistine. These isoflavones may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Examples of edible materials containing isoflavones include isoflavone-containing sites (soybeans, soybean germ shafts, etc.) of plants containing isoflavones (for example, soybean plants such as soybeans), and processed products thereof (for example, dried products and extracts). , Those processed foods (for example, tofu, soymilk, fermented soymilk, natto, etc.) can be mentioned.
このように、本改善剤によれば、ヒトまたは非ヒト動物の腸内細菌叢を改善し、エクオール産生菌の存在割合を増やすように腸内細菌叢の細菌構成比を調整することで、イソフラボンからエクオールの生成を高めてエクオールに基づく作用効果を発揮することが可能になる。なお、エクオールに基づく作用効果としては、制限されないものの、更年期障害の症状(のぼせ・ほてり、頭痛、めまい、自律神経失調症様の症状、頻脈、血圧変動など)の緩和;過酸化脂質産生の抑制;皮脂の過剰分泌の抑制(にきびや吹き出物の予防または改善);がん(乳がん、子宮体がン、前立腺がん、胃がんなど)の予防;II型糖尿病(空腹時血糖値、インスリン耐性)の予防または改善;生活習慣病(糖尿病、高脂血症、動脈硬化、高コレステロールなど)の予防または改善;骨粗鬆症の予防または改善、骨密度の増加、骨中ミネラル濃度の増加;皮膚の老化(肌のハリや弾力性の低下、シミ、シワ、たるみ)の予防または改善;血流改善(冷え症、肩こり、緊張性頭痛、肌のくすみや乾燥などの予防または改善);男性型脱毛の予防または改善等から選択される少なくとも1つの作用効果を期待することができる。 Thus, according to this improving agent, isoflavones are produced by improving the intestinal flora of human or non-human animals and adjusting the bacterial composition ratio of the intestinal flora so as to increase the abundance of equol-producing bacteria. It is possible to increase the production of equol and exert the action effect based on equol. The effects based on equol are not limited, but alleviate the symptoms of menopausal disorders (such as swelling / burning, headache, dizziness, autonomic imbalance-like symptoms, tachycardia, and blood glucose fluctuation); Suppression; Suppression of excess skin oil secretion (prevention or improvement of acne and pimples); Prevention of cancer (breast cancer, uterine body cancer, prostate cancer, stomach cancer, etc.); Type II diabetes (fasting blood glucose level, insulin resistance) Prevention or amelioration of lifestyle-related diseases (diabetes, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, high cholesterol, etc.); Prevention or improvement of skin firmness and elasticity, stains, wrinkles, sagging; improvement of blood sugar (prevention or improvement of coldness, stiff shoulders, tension headache, dullness and dryness of skin); prevention or improvement of male hair loss At least one action and effect selected from improvement and the like can be expected.
(B)腸内細菌中の短鎖脂肪酸産生菌の存在割合の増加
本改善剤をヒトまたは非ヒト動物が摂取することで、腸内に存在する短鎖脂肪酸産生菌の存在割合を増加することができる。具体的には、短鎖脂肪酸産生菌としては、コハク酸を産生するParabacteroides属の細菌、酢酸・乳酸を産生するBlautia属の細菌、及び酪酸を産生するRuminococcaceae科の細菌からなる群より選択される少なくとも1つを挙げることができる。これらの短鎖脂肪酸産生菌によれば、腸内で有用な機能を発揮する短鎖脂肪酸の腸内における存在量を増加させることができる。つまり、本改善剤によれば、ヒトまたは非ヒト動物の腸内細菌叢を改善し、腸内で有用な機能を発揮する短鎖脂肪酸の腸内における存在割合を増やすように腸内細菌叢の細菌構成比を調整することで、短鎖脂肪酸に基づく作用効果を発揮することが可能になる。
腸内における短鎖脂肪酸の作用効果や健康との関わりを下記に説明する。
(B) Increasing the abundance ratio of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestinal bacteria Increase the abundance ratio of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria present in the intestine by ingesting this improving agent by humans or non-human animals. Can be done. Specifically, the short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria are selected from the group consisting of bacteria of the genus Parabacteroides that produce succinic acid, bacteria of the genus Blautia that produce acetic acid and lactic acid, and bacteria of the family Ruminococcaceae that produce butyric acid. At least one can be mentioned. According to these short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria, the abundance of short-chain fatty acids that exert useful functions in the intestine can be increased. In other words, according to this improver, the intestinal flora of human or non-human animals is improved, and the abundance of short-chain fatty acids that exert useful functions in the intestine is increased in the intestine. By adjusting the bacterial composition ratio, it becomes possible to exert an action effect based on short-chain fatty acids.
The effects of short-chain fatty acids in the intestine and their relationship to health are explained below.
a.有害物質からのバリア機能の強化
酢酸には大腸のバリア機能を高める働きがあると言われている。また酪酸にも、腸管細胞のMUC2遺伝子を活性化することで、粘膜物質であるムチンの分泌を促し、大腸を保護する作用があると言われている。
a. Strengthening the barrier function from harmful substances Acetic acid is said to have the function of enhancing the barrier function of the large intestine. Butyric acid is also said to have the effect of promoting the secretion of mucin, a mucosal substance, and protecting the large intestine by activating the MUC2 gene in intestinal cells.
b.発がん予防
短鎖脂肪酸は腸内を弱酸性にすることで有害な二次胆汁酸をできにくくするため、大腸癌の予防につながると言われている。また、酪酸には、大腸細胞の異常な増殖を抑える、アポトーシスを促す、大腸細胞の病変を抑えるなどの作用で大腸癌の発症を抑えるといわれている。
b. Cancer prevention Short-chain fatty acids are said to help prevent colorectal cancer because they make the intestines weakly acidic, making it difficult to produce harmful secondary bile acids. In addition, butyric acid is said to suppress the onset of colorectal cancer by suppressing the abnormal proliferation of large intestine cells, promoting apoptosis, and suppressing the lesions of large intestine cells.
c.肥満の予防
短鎖脂肪酸は脂肪細胞にある短鎖脂肪酸受容体に作用して脂肪細胞へのエネルギーの取り込みを抑え、脂肪細胞の肥大化を防ぐ。また、神経細胞にある短鎖脂肪酸受容体にも作用し、交感神経系を介してエネルギー消費を促すなど、エネルギーバランスを整える働きがある。
c. Prevention of obesity Short-chain fatty acids act on short-chain fatty acid receptors in adipocytes to suppress the uptake of energy into adipocytes and prevent adipocyte enlargement. It also acts on short-chain fatty acid receptors in nerve cells and promotes energy consumption via the sympathetic nervous system, and has the function of adjusting the energy balance.
d.糖尿病の予防
酪酸には腸管にあるL細胞に作用して、腸管ホルモンであるGLP-1の分泌を促す作用がある。GLP-1は糖尿病を予防・改善する作用があり、インスリンを分泌する膵臓β細胞数の減少を抑えたり、インスリン分泌を促す作用がある。
d. Prevention of diabetes Butyric acid acts on L cells in the intestinal tract to promote the secretion of the intestinal hormone GLP-1. GLP-1 has the effect of preventing and ameliorating diabetes, suppressing the decrease in the number of pancreatic β-cells that secrete insulin, and promoting insulin secretion.
e.食欲の抑制
酪酸は腸管のL細胞からGLP-1のほかPYYのような腸管ホルモンも分泌する。GLP-1やPYYは、脳に作用して食欲を抑える働きがあり、満腹感を持続させて過食を防ぐことが知られている。
e. Suppression of appetite Butyric acid secretes GLP-1 as well as intestinal hormones such as PYY from L cells in the intestinal tract. GLP-1 and PYY are known to act on the brain to suppress appetite, maintain a feeling of fullness, and prevent overeating.
f.免疫機能の調節
腸は全身の免疫細胞のおよそ60%が集中し、腸の免疫バランスの崩れ(特に過剰な免疫反応)が全身に影響すると言われている。酪酸には過剰な免疫反応を抑えるTreg細胞という免疫細胞を増やす効果があり、これには酪酸が大腸上皮細胞のヒストンのアセチル化を促進する働きが関与していることが分かっている。また腸の免疫疾患である炎症性腸疾患にも酪酸が有用であるといわれている。さらに自己免疫疾患の予防や改善に腸内に存在する乳酸菌が有用であるといわれている。
f. Regulation of immune function It is said that about 60% of the immune cells in the whole body are concentrated in the intestine, and the imbalance of the intestine (especially excessive immune response) affects the whole body. Butyric acid has the effect of increasing immune cells called Treg cells, which suppress the excessive immune response, and it is known that butyric acid promotes the acetylation of histones in colonic epithelial cells. Butyric acid is also said to be useful for inflammatory bowel disease, which is an immune disease of the intestine. Furthermore, it is said that lactic acid bacteria existing in the intestine are useful for prevention and improvement of autoimmune diseases.
g.その他
腸内に存在する乳酸菌の割合が増加することにより、前述する自己免疫疾患の予防または改善に加えて、感冒罹患の予防または改善や、善玉菌の増加および悪玉菌の抑制による整腸、下痢、便通等の改善を期待することができる。
g. Others By increasing the proportion of lactic acid bacteria present in the intestine, in addition to the prevention or amelioration of autoimmune diseases mentioned above, prevention or amelioration of cold illness, increase of good bacteria and suppression of bad bacteria are used to regulate the intestine. , Diarrhea, bowel movements, etc. can be expected to improve.

各試験区の被験動物について、各飼料及び飲用水を2週間自由に摂取させた後に採取した盲腸内容物から、定法に従ってDNAを抽出し、株式会社生物技研に依頼して16S rRNA遺伝子のV3-V4領域を増幅し、Illumina MiSeqによるメタ16S菌叢解析を行った。得られた17サンプルの合計871,376リード(平均51,258リード)QIIME(Quantitave Insights Into Microbial Ecology)を用いて菌叢解析を行った。得られた菌叢解析から、科・属レベルの菌叢構成を求めた。
2. Analysis of intestinal bacterial flora in the contents of the cecum DNA was extracted from the contents of the cecum collected after free intake of each feed and drinking water for 2 weeks for the test animals in each test group, and DNA was extracted according to a conventional method. The V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified and meta 16S flora analysis was performed by Illumina MiSeq. A total of 871,376 reads (51,258 reads on average) of the 17 samples obtained were used for bacterial flora analysis using QIIME (Quantitave Insights Into Microbial Ecology). From the obtained bacterial flora analysis, the bacterial flora composition at the family / genus level was determined.
エクオール産生菌であるAdlercreutzia属の細菌の盲腸内存在比(%)を図1に示す。同様に、短鎖脂肪酸のうちコハク酸を産生する菌(Parabacteroides属の細菌)の盲腸内存在比(%)を図2(A)、酢酸や乳酸を産生する菌(Blautia属の細菌)の盲腸内存在比(%)を図2(B)、酪酸を産生する菌(Ruminococcaceae科に属する細菌)の盲腸内存在比(%)を図2(C)に示す。また、病原性細菌であるDesulfovibrionaceae科に属する細菌の盲腸内存在比(%)を図3に示す。 The abundance ratio (%) of bacteria of the genus Adlercreutzia, which is an equol-producing bacterium, in the cecum is shown in FIG. Similarly, among the short-chain fatty acids, the abundance ratio (%) in the cecum of bacteria producing succinic acid (bacteria of the genus Parabacteroides) is shown in FIG. The internal abundance ratio (%) is shown in FIG. 2 (B), and the abundance ratio (%) of butyric acid-producing bacteria (bacteria belonging to the family Ruminococcaceae) in the cecum is shown in FIG. 2 (C). In addition, the abundance ratio (%) in the cecum of bacteria belonging to the family Desulfovibrionaceae, which is a pathogenic bacterium, is shown in FIG.
図1に示すように、(a)コントロール群、及び(b)コントロールA群と比較して、(c)黒大豆種皮抽出物群は、腸内のエクオール産生菌が顕著に増加していることが確認された。また図2(A)〜(C)に示すように、(a)コントロール群、及び(b)コントロールA群と比較して、(c)黒大豆種皮抽出物群は、腸内の短鎖脂肪酸産生菌(コハク酸産生菌、酢酸・乳酸産生菌、酪酸産生菌)が顕著に増加していることが確認された。一方、図3に示すように、(a)コントロール群、及び(b)コントロールA群と比較して、(c)黒大豆種皮抽出物群は、腸内の病原性細菌が顕著に低下していることが確認された。 As shown in FIG. 1, equol-producing bacteria in the intestine were significantly increased in (c) black soybean seed coat extract group as compared with (a) control group and (b) control A group. Was confirmed. Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 (A) to 2 (C), (c) black soybean hull extract group is a short-chain fatty acid in the intestine as compared with (a) control group and (b) control A group. It was confirmed that the number of producing bacteria (succinic acid-producing bacteria, acetic acid / lactic acid-producing bacteria, butyric acid-producing bacteria) increased remarkably. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, the pathogenic bacteria in the intestine were significantly reduced in (c) black soybean seed coat extract group as compared with (a) control group and (b) control A group. It was confirmed that there was.
なお、高脂肪食を摂取しつづけると、腸内細菌叢が崩壊することが知られている。本実験では、高脂肪食の摂取に代えて、被験動物((b)コントロールA群、(c)黒大豆種皮抽出物群)に一次胆汁酸(コール酸)を含む飲料水を摂取させることで、腸内細菌叢を崩壊した状態または崩壊し得る状態で実験を行った。図1〜3に示すように、こうした状態でも、黒大豆種皮抽出物を摂取させることで、腸内のエクオール産生菌や短鎖脂肪酸産生菌などの有用菌が顕著に増加し(図1及び2参照)、一方、一次胆汁酸を摂取させることで増加した病原性細菌が、黒大豆種皮抽出物を摂取させることで有意に減少した(図3参照)。これらのことから、黒大豆種皮抽出物を経口的に摂取することで、腸内細菌叢の細菌構成比が改善され、それに応じて健康増進をもたらすことができることが示唆された。 It is known that the intestinal bacterial flora collapses when a high-fat diet is continuously ingested. In this experiment, instead of ingesting a high-fat diet, the test animals ((b) control group A, (c) black soybean hull extract group) were allowed to ingest drinking water containing primary bile acid (cholic acid). , The intestinal flora was disrupted or could be disrupted. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, even in such a state, by ingesting the black soybean seed coat extract, useful bacteria such as equol-producing bacteria and short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria in the intestine increased remarkably (FIGS. 1 and 2). (See), on the other hand, the pathogenic bacteria increased by ingestion of primary bile acids were significantly reduced by ingestion of black soybean seed coat extract (see FIG. 3). These results suggest that oral ingestion of black soybean seed coat extract can improve the bacterial composition ratio of the intestinal flora and thereby promote health accordingly.
