Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine fermentation, and particularly relates to a fermentation composition with blood lipid lowering effect, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Hyperlipidemia is a common metabolic disease caused by dyslipidemia, resulting in abnormally high plasma cholesterol and triglycerides. It is a major risk factor for conditions such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, vascular dementia, and coronary heart disease. Statistics show that HL is on the rise. Therefore, timely intervention and treatment of HL is of great practical significance for improving public health and alleviating medical pressures.

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners throughout history have believed that the primary cause of HL is the accumulation of phlegm, which blocks the blood vessels and impairs the flow of Qi and blood. Over time, this leads to blood stasis and obstruction of the meridians. They also believed that phlegm and blood stasis are caused by imbalance in the five internal organs. Specifically, spleen and stomach deficiency leads to insufficient Qi flow and transformation, which in turn hinders the liver's ability to regulate and release Qi, leading to blood stasis and burdening the heart, lungs, and kidneys. Modern nutritionists believe that food is the primary means of treating disease, and that dietary measures should be taken to alleviate the development of hyperlipidemia. Traditional Chinese medicine has traditionally emphasized the correspondences between the liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys: green, red, yellow, white, and black. In traditional Chinese medicine, black beans, adzuki beans, white lentils, mung beans, and soybeans correspond to the five colors. Research has also confirmed that these five ingredients, including adzuki beans, white lentils, mung beans, and soybeans, play an important role in alleviating inflammation, providing antioxidant protection, and lowering blood lipids. However, these five ingredients contain foreign proteins, which can cause side effects such as diarrhea and bloating. Therefore, it is of practical significance to deal with it.

[0004] Traditional processing methods often involve steaming the five ingredients to eliminate the side effects of foreign proteins. This process is time-consuming, and the resulting ingredients become soft and mushy, making them difficult to further process. In recent years, fermentation technology using edible fungi, similar to probiotics, has been increasingly utilized in the development of new TCM products. This fermentation technology, based on traditional TCM fermentation processing methods, integrates modern microecology, bioengineering, and fermentation engineering to create a new, modern pharmaceutical technology for TCM. Poria cocos is a traditional Chinese medicine. It has a sweet, mild flavor, and is non-toxic. It enters the heart, spleen, lung, and kidney meridians, and has the effects of dispelling dampness and promoting diuresis, benefiting the spleen and stomach, protecting the kidneys, and calming the mind and promoting fluid production. Modern research has also confirmed that Poria cocos can lower blood lipids. Therefore, using black beans, adzuki beans, white lentils, mung beans, and soybeans as fermentation substrates and Poria cocos as the fermentation strain to produce novel fermentation products exhibits synergistic lipid-lowering properties. Furthermore, combining these two ingredients into a novel fermentation system is unprecedented in current technology. Summary of the Invention

[0057] Take 1.0 kg each of black beans, red beans and white lentils, mix them, soak them in water for 4 hours, filter them, crush them, and sterilize them at high temperature in a high-pressure sterilization equipment to obtain fermentation raw materials; and compared with Example 3, the mixed grain flour is fermented with yeast during the fermentation process to obtain comparative example sample 2.

[0058] Animal experiments

[0059] In order to further verify the pharmacological effects of the present invention, animal experiments were conducted on the fermentation compositions obtained in the examples and comparative examples to further verify the lipid-lowering effect of the fermentation compositions of the present invention.

[0060] Animal Grouping: 90 male SD rats, weighing 180-200g, were randomly divided into a control group and a hyperlipidemia group and adaptively housed for 7 days. A hyperlipidemia rat model was established using a high-fat diet for 18 weeks. Subsequently, the hyperlipidemia rats were randomly divided into a model group, a simvastatin group, Example 1 group, Example 2 group, Example 3 group, Example 4 group, Comparative Example 1 group, and Comparative Example 2 group.

[0061] Dosage: The dosage of simvastatin was 2.0 mg / kg. The rats in Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Example 4, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 groups were all given the drug by oral gavage at a dosage of 2.0 g / kg for 21 consecutive days.

[0062] Determination of index factors: After the last administration, rats in each group were fasted for 10 hours but not water. Then, rats were anesthetized with 1.0% sodium pentobarbital solution, and blood was collected from the abdominal aorta. The blood was allowed to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, and then centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes to obtain serum, which was quickly transferred to a -80°C refrigerator for storage. The levels of TG, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C in the serum of rats in each group were measured using a kit. At the same time, the liver tissue of the rats was removed and directly fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution. The liver was divided into two parts. One liver sample was fixed in 10% formalin solution and stained with HE. The degree of liver cell damage was observed using an electron projection microscope. The other liver sample was stained with Oil Red O to observe the lipid accumulation in the hepatocytes of rats in each group.

[0063] Table 1 Serum factor determination indicators of each group

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] The results are shown in Table 1: Compared with the blank group, the levels of TG, TC, and LDL-C in the serum of the model group rats were significantly increased (p < 0.05), and the HDL-C content was significantly decreased (p < 0.05); the results show that the animal model was successfully established. Compared with the model group, the levels of TG, TC, and LDL-C in the serum of the simvastatin group and the rats in Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4 were significantly restored, and the HDL-C content was significantly increased (p < 0.05); this shows that the samples of Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4 do have significant lipid-lowering activity. Compared with the model group, the comparative examples 1 and 2 groups also had a certain regulatory effect on TG, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C in the serum of hyperlipidemic rats, but their regulatory effect was not as good as that of the example group of the present invention, and there was no significant effect. It can be concluded that the fermentation composition obtained by the preparation method of the present invention has significant lipid-lowering activity.

[0067] Comparison of HE staining results

[0068] HE staining method: The liver was immersed in 10% formalin solution, dehydrated with graded ethanol, transparentized with xylene, immersed in wax, and embedded. The embedded tissue wax blocks were sectioned (5 μm thickness) using a freezing microtome. The sections were routinely dewaxed to water, stained with Ehrlich hematoxylin for 20 minutes, separated with 1% hydrochloric acid and ethanol, and bluing with tap water for 20 minutes. The sections were first washed with distilled water; then eluted with 70%, 80%, and 90% ethanol for 3 minutes each, and then stained with eosin solution for 10 seconds; then eluted with 95% and 100% ethanol for 10 minutes each, followed by permeabilization with xylene, mounting with neutral gum, and observed under an electron microscope.

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, compared with the blank group, the liver damage in the model group was more serious, and its cell vacuolation was obvious. Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the present invention can improve the degree of liver damage in rats with hyperlipidemia and reduce cell vacuolation; Comparative Examples 1 and 2 can also improve the liver condition of model rats, but their effects are obviously weaker than those of the example samples, which shows that the fermentation composition obtained by the process of the present invention has a significant improvement on the liver damage caused by hyperlipidemia.

[0070] Comparison of Oil Red O staining results

[0071] Oil Red O staining method: Add saturated Oil Red O stock solution to distilled water at a ratio of 3:2 (Oil Red O: distilled water), let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes, and filter before use. Rat liver tissue fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde was thoroughly washed with distilled water, sectioned, and rinsed in 60% isopropanol. After staining with Oil Red O for 10 minutes, the sections were differentiated with 60% isopropanol until the interstitial tissue was clear. After washing with distilled water, the sections were mounted with glycerol gelatin and observed under an optical microscope.

[0072] like Figure 2 As shown, compared with the blank group, the model group had severe liver lipid accumulation and obvious cellular lipid droplets. Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the present invention can improve the lipid accumulation degree in the liver of hyperlipidemia rats and reduce the lipid droplet content; Comparative Examples 1 and 2 can also improve the liver condition of the model rats, but their effects are obviously weaker than those of the example samples, which shows that the fermentation composition obtained by the process of the present invention has a significant improvement on the liver lipid accumulation caused by hyperlipidemia.

[0073] In summary, the fermentation composition obtained by the preparation method of the present invention has a significant effect on lowering blood lipids and has a good development prospect in its application to related diseases such as hyperlipidemia and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

[0074] The above description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to enable one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein but is intended to conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
