ABSTRACT: Background and objective
Bioactive peptides exert great influence in animals and human health by targeting gastrointestinal tracts. The colitis model of mice was induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Thirty-two 8-week-old mice weighing 23 g on average were randomly assigned to four groups of 8 each: mice fed basal diet (CON), mice fed basal diet with 5% DSS (DSS), mice fed 0.03% IRW with 5% DSS (IRW-DSS), and mice fed 0.03% IRW with 5% DSS (IQW-DSS). After an adaptation period of 3 days, on day 8, all mice were slaughtered. Serum samples were collected to determine the level of amino acids; colonic tissue was quick-frozen for the determination of gene expression.Methods
The aim of this study was to assess the ability of two kinds of peptides (IRW and IQW) to repair intestinal inflammatory in the DSS-induced model in accordance with serum amino acids and intestinal inflammatory factors.Results
The results demonstrated that the addition of IRW and IQW had a mitigating effect on DSS-induced intestinal inflammation. The level of Asp decreased in the serum of mice supplemented with IRW-DSS (P < 0.05), and IQW enhanced the level of Leu, but lowered the level of Ser (P < 0.05). IQW and IRW addition reduced the level of TNF-α and IL-17 (P < 0.05). No other significant effects were observed.Conclusions
The present study demonstrated that intracolic administration of IRW and IQW might be a novel option for preventing inflammatory bowel disease via regulating the level of serum amino acid and enhancing the intestinal immune defense.
