Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of food processing, and in particular relates to a dietary fiber-isochlorogenic acid complex and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa var.glabra Regel) is a plant of the genus Brassica in the family Cruciferae. It has a very long history of cultivation and is the largest vegetable crop in terms of planting area and yield. However, Chinese cabbage processed products are mainly clean cabbage, sauerkraut, spicy cabbage, etc., with low comprehensive utilization rate, and a large amount of waste such as cabbage outer leaves will be generated during the processing. Relevant studies have shown that Chinese cabbage is rich in dietary fiber, but there are few reports on the extraction method of soluble dietary fiber (SDF) from Chinese cabbage, and there is even less research on its health benefits.

[0003] Traditional SDF extraction mainly adopts water extraction, acid extraction and alkali extraction. Water extraction is simple to operate and low in cost, but the extraction time is long and the extraction rate is low. Acid-base extraction is often used to extract SDF containing acidic groups or acidic SDF, which can promote the dissolution of SDF and shorten the extraction time, but it is easy to destroy the glycosidic bond and spatial structure of SDF. At present, the auxiliary extraction methods based on traditional solvents include enzyme-assisted extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, subcritical extraction and supercritical extraction. These auxiliary methods have significantly improved the extraction efficiency, but are also accompanied by the degradation of SDF and higher extraction costs. With the continuous deepening of SDF research, efficient, safe and green SDF extraction methods are important prerequisites for its low energy consumption and high application value. Traditional solvent extraction methods mainly use water, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, sodium hydroxide and ethanol as solvents, which usually require a large amount of solvent. The extraction process is prone to waste of solvents and has certain safety hazards and environmental pollution problems. In recent years, deep eutectic solvents (DES) have been widely studied due to their low production cost, simple synthesis method, ability to avoid adverse effects on the structure and activity of SDF caused by excessively high temperature and inappropriate acidity and alkalinity during the extraction process, and excellent extraction effect and degradability.

[0004] Stevia, also known as stevia and sweet grass, is a perennial herb of the genus Stevia in the Asteraceae family. Stevia is the main source of stevioside. The stevia residue industrial by-product after stevioside is extracted contains rich isochlorogenic acid.

[0005] Therefore, further exploring the nutritional functions of Chinese cabbage and developing functional composite products are of great significance to solving the problem of high yield and low value of Chinese cabbage. Summary of the invention

[0012] The soluble dietary fiber from the outer leaves of Chinese cabbage and the isochlorogenic acid from stevia are mixed in a mass ratio of 1:2 to 6 to obtain a dietary fiber-isochlorogenic acid complex;

[0013] The hydrogen bond donor in the low eutectic solvent is lactic acid, and the hydrogen bond acceptor is one of choline chloride, glycine and alanine; the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor are mixed in a molar ratio of 1-2:1-3.

[0014] Preferably, the Chinese cabbage outer leaf powder is mixed with a low eutectic solvent at a mass volume ratio of 1 g:30-50 mL.

[0015] Preferably, the ultrasonic conditions of the Chinese cabbage outer leaf powder and the low eutectic solvent are 70-80° C. for 40-55 min.

[0016] Preferably, the ultrasonic power of the stevia residue and the ethanol aqueous solution is 500-600W.

[0017] Preferably, the Chinese cabbage outer leaf soluble dietary fiber and stevia isochlorogenic acid are mixed and stirred at room temperature for 3 to 5 hours, and then dialyzed for 40 to 50 hours to equilibrium.

[0104] This example sets up a single factor experiment on the ultrasonic time (20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 60min), water content (30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%), solid-liquid ratio (1:10, 1:20, 1:30, 1:40, 1:50g / mL), and ultrasonic temperature (50℃, 60℃, 70℃, 80℃, 90℃) of the dietary fiber of the outer leaves of Chinese cabbage to study the effect of ultrasonic-assisted DES on the SDF yield and optimize the extraction process. The extraction method of soluble dietary fiber from the outer leaves of Chinese cabbage is the same as steps (1) to (3) of Example 1, and the difference from Example 1 is the change of ultrasonic time, water content, solid-liquid ratio and ultrasonic temperature. The determination and calculation of SDF yield are the same as Example 12.

[0105] Through single factor experiment, the process of ultrasonic-assisted DES extraction of SDF was optimized. The research results are as follows Figure 1As shown in the figure, with the gradual increase of ultrasonic time, the yield of SDF showed a trend of gradually increasing and then decreasing. When the ultrasonic time was 50min, the highest SDF rate was 12.13%. With the gradual increase of water content, the yield of SDF showed a trend of gradually decreasing. Since DES is difficult to synthesize when the water content is lower than 30%, the highest SDF yield was 13.30% when the water content was 30%. With the gradual increase of the solid-liquid ratio, the yield of SDF showed a trend of gradually increasing and then decreasing. When the solid-liquid ratio was 1g:30mL, the highest SDF yield was 13.35%. With the gradual increase of ultrasonic temperature, the yield of SDF showed a trend of gradually increasing and then decreasing. When the ultrasonic temperature was 80℃, the highest SDF rate was 13.45%. The results show that the optimal process conditions are ultrasonic time of 50min, water content of 30%, solid-liquid ratio of 1g:30mL, and ultrasonic temperature of 80℃.

[0107] This example studies and compares the effects of the optimal extraction process determined in Example 13, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 on the yield of soluble dietary fiber from Chinese cabbage outer leaves. The determination and calculation of SDF yield are the same as in Example 12, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0110] Note: The same letters indicate no significant difference, while the different letters indicate significant difference (P<0.05)

[0111] The results are shown in Table 2. Compared with the hot water method and ultrasound-assisted enzyme method, the yield of ultrasound-assisted DES method increased by 6.27 times and 4.98 times, respectively, and the time was shortened by 1.4 times. The above results show that ultrasound-assisted DES is an efficient method for preparing SDF from Chinese cabbage outer leaves.

[0112] Example 15 Protective effect of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on intestinal barrier damage in mice

[0113] 1. Experimental method: Establishment of intestinal barrier injury model in mice: Male ICR mice, with a body weight range of 20 g ± 2 g, were adaptively fed for 3 days and then randomly divided into a negative control group, a model group, a low, medium, and high (125, 250, 500 mg / kg·bw) intervention group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex (SDF-SICA) prepared in Example 10, and a low, medium, and high (125, 250, 500 mg / kg·bw) intervention group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber (SDF) extracted according to the optimal extraction process determined in Example 13, with 10 mice in each group, and gavage was continued for 21 days. From the 19th day onwards, except for the negative control group, the mice in the model group, the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex intervention group and the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber intervention group were intraperitoneally injected with 50 mg / kg·bw of cyclophosphamide saline solution, and the mice in the negative control group were injected with an equal volume of saline, once a day for 3 days.

[0114] 2. Evaluation method:

[0115] (1) Evaluation of the protective effect of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on the intestinal barrier of mice: After intraperitoneal injection on the 21st day, the mice were fasted for 24 hours and given drinking water. After the experiment, blood samples were collected from the mice, and serum was taken to detect D-amino acid oxidase (DAO), D-lactic acid (D-LA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the serum. All the methods and steps were carried out according to the instructions of the kit for detecting DAO, D-LA and LPS. The mice were killed by cervical dislocation, and the thymus and spleen of the mice were removed, weighed and recorded, and the immune organ index was calculated. Part of the intestine was fixed in tissue fixative, and the supernatant was taken. Biochemical indicators such as immunoglobulin A (sIgA), β-defensin (β-DF) and lysozyme (LZM) were determined strictly according to the instructions of the kit, and the morphological observation and cell count of the sections were performed. The ileum tissue was taken and the protein imprints of Occludin, Claudin-1 and ZO-1 were detected using a chemiluminescence detection system. Gas chromatography was used to determine the content of short-chain fatty acids in cecal contents. High-throughput sequencing of 16SrDNA of intestinal flora was used to determine the alpha diversity, beta diversity, and microbial changes at the phylum and genus levels of cecal intestinal flora.

[0116] (2) Evaluation of the protective effect of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on the immune function of mice: ELISA kits were used to measure the levels of immunoglobulins, inflammatory factors and complement in mouse serum.

[0117] 3. Results Analysis

[0118] (1) Protective effect on the morphology and structure of intestinal mucosal epithelium

[0119] like Figures 2-3 As shown in the figure, the villi of the jejunum and ileum of the mice in the negative control group were neatly arranged and elongated, with small gaps between the villi. The villi of the jejunum and ileum of the mice in the model group were irregular in shape, the villi of the small intestine were loose and shortened, and some villi broke and fell off, indicating that the model was successfully established.

[0120] Compared with the model group, the improvement in the low-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was milder; the villus morphology of the medium- and high-dose groups of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was greatly improved, the villi were long and closely arranged, the phenomenon of villus breakage and shedding was reduced, and the villus gap became smaller. After treatment with the same dose of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber, the villus structure of the jejunum and ileum of mice did not show significant improvement. Therefore, cyclophosphamide has a destructive effect on the villus morphology of the mouse intestine, and the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can improve the damage of cyclophosphamide to the villus structure of the small intestine and protect the intestinal barrier.

[0126] Note: Compared with the negative control group, # represents P < 0.05, ## represents P < 0.01; compared with the model group, * represents P < 0.05, ** represents P < 0.01.

[0127] According to the results in Tables 3 and 4, compared with the negative control group, the length of jejunal villi and V / C in the model group were significantly reduced (P<0.05), and the length of ileal villi and V / C were significantly and extremely reduced (P<0.01). Due to the early intervention of the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex, the length of jejunal villi in the medium and high dose groups increased significantly (P<0.05), and the length of ileal villi increased extremely significantly (P<0.01). The V / C of the jejunal high dose group and the V / C of the ileal medium and high dose group increased extremely significantly (P<0.01). This shows that the intervention of 250 and 500 mg / kg·bw of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex protects the villi structure of the small intestine of mice well.

[0128] (2) Effects on diamine oxidase (DAO), D-lactic acid (D-LA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

[0132] Note: Compared with the negative control group, # represents P < 0.05, ## represents P < 0.01; compared with the model group, * represents P < 0.05, ** represents P < 0.01.

[0133] Diamine oxidase, D-lactic acid and lipopolysaccharide are important indicators for judging intestinal barrier damage. The level of diamine oxidase in serum can specifically reflect the integrity of the intestinal wall tissue structure, while D-lactic acid and lipopolysaccharide can reflect the damage to the intestine and changes in permeability.

[0134] According to the results in Table 5, the negative control group of D-LA and DAO in the serum indexes of mice showed extremely significant differences with the model group, and the negative control group of LPS showed significant differences with the model group. The low-dose group of serum LPS content showed significant differences compared with the model group, and the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex showed extremely significant differences compared with the model group; the low-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex showed significant differences compared with the model group, and the medium-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex showed extremely significant differences compared with the model group; the serum DAO content of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex intervention group showed significant differences with the model group. After the same dose of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber was treated, there was no significant improvement in the serum D-amino acid oxidase (DAO), D-lactate (D-LA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of mice. This shows that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can protect mucosal epithelial cells and reduce intestinal damage.

[0135] (3) Protective effect on intestinal immune barrier

[0136] According to the results in Table 6, compared with the negative control group, the relative mass of immune organs in the model group decreased significantly (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the relative mass of thymus and spleen in the group treated with Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex in advance increased, among which the low-dose group increased significantly (P < 0.05), and the thymus index in the high-dose group increased extremely significantly (P < 0.01). After treatment with the same dose of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber, the thymus index and spleen index of mice did not improve significantly. This indicates that Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can reduce the damage of cyclophosphamide to immune organs.

[0144] The changes in the number of intraepithelial lymphocytes in the intestines of mice in each group are shown in Table 7. Compared with the negative control group, the number of intraepithelial lymphocytes in the model group was extremely significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the number of intraepithelial lymphocytes in the jejunum and ileum of the medium-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was significantly increased (P < 0.05), and the number of intraepithelial lymphocytes in the jejunum and ileum of the high-dose group was extremely significantly increased (P < 0.01). After treatment with the same dose of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber, the number of lymphocytes in the jejunum and ileum of mice did not improve significantly.

[0147] Note: Compared with the negative control group, # represents P < 0.05, ## represents P < 0.01; compared with the model group, * represents P < 0.05, ** represents P < 0.01.

[0148] The changes in the number of intestinal goblet cells in each group of mice are shown in Table 8. Compared with the negative control group, the number of goblet cells in the jejunum and ileum of the model group mice was extremely significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the number of goblet cells in the jejunum and ileum of the medium-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was significantly increased (P < 0.05), and the number of goblet cells in the jejunum and ileum of the high-dose group was significantly increased (P < 0.01). After treatment with the same dose of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber, the number of goblet cells in the jejunum and ileum of mice did not improve significantly. This shows that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex formula can restore the damage caused by cyclophosphamide to intestinal immune cells and protect the intestinal immune barrier.

[0149] like Figure 4 As shown, the levels of sIgA (secretory immunoglobulin A), β-DF (β-defensin) and LZM (lysozyme) in the mouse small intestinal tissue homogenate model group were significantly lower than those in the negative control group (P < 0.05), indicating that the cyclophosphamide intestinal injury model was successfully established; the levels of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex in different treatment groups were significantly increased compared with the model group (P < 0.05).

[0150] sIgA, β-DF and LZM are all important components of intestinal immunity in mice. The above three indicators in the high-dose group were significantly upregulated compared with the model group (P < 0.05), indicating that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex formula has a good protective effect on the small intestinal immune barrier.

[0151] (4) Effects on short-chain fatty acids in intestinal contents

[0152] Effects of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on the levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the cecum of mice injured by cyclophosphamide Figure 5 As shown. Compared with the negative control group, the SCFAs in the model group decreased (p<0.05, p<0.01). Due to the early intervention of the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex in each dose group, the levels of multiple short-chain fatty acids and total short-chain fatty acids in the medium and high dose groups increased significantly or extremely significantly (p<0.05, p<0.01). This shows that the intervention of the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex formula can increase the production of short-chain fatty acids in the cecal contents of mice.

[0153] SCFAs are metabolites of dietary fiber used by beneficial intestinal bacteria. The low energy produced has health benefits for colon cells. In addition, short-chain fatty acids can promote the secretion of the mucus layer and provide nutrition for intestinal epithelial cells, thereby improving the physical barrier capacity; they can affect the pH value of the intestine to regulate the chemical barrier, and they can also provide nutrients for immune cells, promote the secretion of mucin, lubricate the intestine, and reduce the adhesion of pathogenic bacteria to the intestinal mucosa, thereby enhancing the immune barrier.

[0154] (5) Protective effect of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on intestinal physical barrier

[0155] Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of ZO-1, Claudin-1 and Occludin. Figures 6 to 8 As shown in the figure, compared with the negative control group, the expression of ZO-1 protein in the small intestine of the model group mice was significantly reduced (P < 0.01); compared with the model group, the protein expression levels of the low-dose and medium-dose groups of the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex were significantly increased (P < 0.01), which indicates that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex activated the expression of ZO-1 protein in the small intestine tissue of mice ( Figure 6 ); Compared with the negative control group, the expression levels of Claudin-1 and Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex in the small intestine of the model group mice were significantly increased (P < 0.05), and the expression levels of high-dose group proteins were extremely significantly increased (P < 0.01) ( Figure 7 ). The expression of occludin protein in the model group was significantly reduced (P<0.01); the protein expression level in the medium-dose and high-dose groups of the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was significantly increased (P<0.01) ( Figure 8 ).

[0156] The intestinal physical barrier function is closely related to the tight junctions of intestinal epithelial cells, which are complexes composed of multiple proteins, including occludin, ZO protein, claudin, etc. The results of this experiment showed that after cyclophosphamide modeling, the occludin and claudin-1 proteins in the mouse intestine were significantly downregulated, indicating that the permeability of the mouse intestine increased and the physical barrier was damaged. The Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can significantly upregulate the expression of intestinal occludin and claudin-1 proteins, slow down the trend of increased intestinal permeability, and protect the intestinal physical barrier from the damage caused by cyclophosphamide to the intestine.

[0157] (6) Impact on intestinal flora

[0158] Alpha diversity indicates the species abundance and species diversity of a sample. The present invention analyzed the effects of CSF on the Shannon index, Simpson index and Chao index of the intestinal microbiota in the cecum of mice at the OTU level. The richness of the microbial community was positively correlated with the above indexes. Fig. 9 Compared with the negative group, the Shannon, Simpson and Chao indexes of the model group were all down-regulated; compared with the model group, the Shannon index, Simpson index and Chao index of the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex all rebounded, among which the Simpson index and Shannon index rebounded significantly (p < 0.05). Therefore, the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can improve the Alpha diversity of intestinal flora to a certain extent, and has the tendency to inhibit the decrease in intestinal flora richness caused by cyclophosphamide.

[0159] The principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) method was used to analyze the β-diversity of the mouse cecal microbial intestinal flora. Fig.10 As shown in the figure. Each point in the figure represents a mouse sample, and the distance between points indicates the degree of difference. The closer the distance between samples on the coordinate graph, the higher the similarity. Fig.10 It was found that compared with the negative control group, the sample points in the model group were relatively far away and scattered, indicating that the cecal intestinal flora of the mice in the model group had undergone significant changes. Compared with the model group, the sample points in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex were relatively clustered and close to the scattered points of the negative control group, indicating that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex formula treatment can significantly reverse the intestinal flora disorder of mice caused by cyclophosphamide.

[0160] At the phylum level, the maximum abundance of intestinal flora in different groups of mice was ranked. Fig.11 The results showed that the abundance of Firmicutes and Desulfobacteria was the highest in each group of mice, and the composition of the dominant phyla of intestinal flora at the phylum level was similar between the negative control group and the high-dose group, while the model group was quite different from the other two groups.

[0161] Depend on Fig.12 The results showed that compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Desulfobacteria in the model group increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Desulfobacteria in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex decreased significantly (P<0.01), and there was no significant difference with the negative control group ( Fig.12A). Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Actinobacteria in the model group decreased slightly, but there was no significant difference; compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Actinobacteria in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex increased significantly (P<0.05) ( Fig.12 B). Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Proteobacteria in the model group decreased slightly, but there was no significant difference; compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Proteobacteria in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex increased significantly (P<0.01) ( Fig.12 C). Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the model group decreased. Compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex increased, and the relative abundance was similar to that of the NC group, but there was no significant difference among the three groups ( Fig.12 D).

[0162] Fig.13 The top 30 species with the highest abundance at the genus level in the intestinal flora of each group of mice are shown, among which Desulfovibrio and Akkermansia have the highest abundance. As can be seen from the figure, in terms of the composition of the dominant bacterial phyla of the intestinal flora at the genus level, the negative control group and the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex are relatively similar, and the model group is quite different from the other two groups.

[0163] according to Fig.14The results showed that compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of the intestinal harmful bacteria Desulfovibrio in the model group increased significantly (P < 0.01), and compared with the model group, the relative abundance of the intestinal harmful bacteria Desulfovibrio in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex decreased significantly (P < 0.01), and there was no significant difference with the negative control group. Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Akkermansia in the model group decreased significantly (P < 0.01), and compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Akkermansia in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex did not reverse, but there was no significant difference between the model group and the high-dose group. Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Lactobacillus in the model group decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the relative abundance of Lactobacillus in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex increased significantly (P<0.05) compared with the model group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups. Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Lachnospira in the model group decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the relative abundance of Lachnospira in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex increased significantly (P<0.05) compared with the model group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups. Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Helicobacter in the model group increased significantly (P<0.05), and the relative abundance of Lachnospira in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex decreased significantly (P<0.01) compared with the model group. Compared with the negative control group, the relative abundance of Clostridium in the model group increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the relative abundance of Clostridium in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex decreased significantly (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the high-dose group and the negative control group.

[0164] (7) Protective effect of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex on immune function of mice

[0165] 1) Results of mouse serum immunoglobulin expression

[0166] The ELISA kit method was used to determine the levels of IgA, IgM and IgG in mouse serum. Fig.15As shown. Compared with the negative control group, the IgA in the serum of the mice in the model group was extremely significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the IgA in the serum of the mice in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was extremely significantly increased compared with the model group (P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, there was no significant difference in the IgM in the serum of the mice in the model group, and the IgM in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was extremely significantly increased compared with the model group (P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, the IgG in the serum of the mice in the model group was extremely significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the IgG in the serum of the mice in the high-dose group of Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex was extremely significantly increased compared with the model group (P<0.01). The above results show that the Chinese cabbage soluble dietary fiber-stevia isochlorogenic acid complex can improve the decrease in the humoral immune function of mice caused by cyclophosphamide.
