Abstract:
This study evaluated the possible protective impact of different vintages of Hongqu rice wines on metabolic syndrome (MetS) in rats induced by high-fat/high-fructose diet (HFFD). Methods Rats were randomly divided into six groups and treated with (a) basal diet (13.9 kJ/g); (b) HFFD (20.0% w/w lard and 18.0% fructose, 18.9 kJ/g) and (c–f) HFFD with 3-, 5-, 8- and 15-year-aged Hongqu rice wines (9.96 ml/kg body weight), respectively, at an oral route for 20 weeks. Results Hongqu rice wines could alleviate HFFD-induced augment of body weight gain and fat accumulation, and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Glycolipid metabolic abnormalities caused by HFFD were ameliorated after Hongqu rice wines consumption by lowering levels of fasting insulin, GSP, HOMA-IR, AUC of OGTT and ITT, and lipid deposition (reduced contents of TG, TC, FFA and LDL-C, and elevated HDL-C level) in the serum and liver, probably via regulating expressions of genes involving in IRS1/PI3K/AKT pathway, LDL-C uptake, fatty acid β-oxidation, and lipolysis, export and synthesis of TG. In addition, concentrations of MDA and blood pressure markers (ANG-II and ET-1) declined, and activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT) were improved in conditions of Hongqu rice wines compared to those in the HFFD group. Eight-year-aged Hongqu rice wine produced a more effective effect on alleviating HFFD-caused MetS among different vintages of Hongqu rice wines. Conclusion To sum up, Hongqu rice wines exhibited ameliorative effects on HFFD-induced MetS in rats based on antiobesity, antihyperlipidemic, antihyperglycemic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and potential antihypertensive properties.
