Abstract

Cholesterol-lowering effects of ${\beta}-glucan-enriched$ barley fraction were investigated in rats fed 0.5% cholesterol and barley as a fiber source. Male rats of Sprague-Dawley strain were divided into six groups and fed different diets for 5 weeks: normal (cholesterol-free), control (cellulose 5%), fiber-free, and three groups containing ${\beta}-glucan-enriched$ barley fractions. Although plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels were not significantly different among different diet groups, ${\beta}-glucan-enriched$ barley fraction-fed groups had higher HDL-cholesterol concentrations than the cellulose control group after 5 weeks of experiment. The fecal excretion of cholesterol and triglyceride was significantly increased by barley diets. Fecal concentrations of cholesterol and triglyceride in cellulose control group were 38.2 and 2.6 g/day, respectively, whereas those of barley-fed groups were $52.4{\sim}59.2$ and $6.8{\sim}9.5$ g/day, respectively, during the experimental period.

메보리인 송학과 찰보리인 찹쌀보리를 대상으로 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량을 높인 농축획분을 제조한 후 이를 실험식이에 첨가하여 흰쥐의 혈장과 분변 콜레스테롤 대사에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 보리 ${\beta}-glucan$ 농축획분을 식이섬유원으로 첨가한 N glucan(5%)군과 W glucan(5%)군의 혈장의 총 콜레스테롤 함량은 fiber-free 군 및 control 군보다 낮았다. 혈장의 HDL 콜레스테롤 함량은 control 군이 30.2 mg/dL인 반면 N glucan(5%)군에서 39.6 mg/dL, W glucan(5%)에서 33.8 mg/dL로 나타나 보리 ${\beta}-glucan$ 농축획분 섭취에 의해 증가되었으며 통계적인 유의성이 메보리인 N glucan(5%)군에서 관찰되었다. 식이섬유 함량 10%까지 농축획분 첨가량을 증가시킨 W glucan(10%)군을 W glucan(5%)군을 비교해보면 식이섬유 함량이 증기됨에 따라 혈장의 중성지방 수치가 낮아지고 HDL 콜레스테롤 함량이 다소 증기되었으나 유의적이 차이는 아니었다. 변의 무게는 보리 ${\beta}-glucan$ 첨가 군들이 control 군보다 $1.5{\sim}2$배 이상 많았다. Control군인 cellulose 첨가군은 변으로 38.2 g/day의 콜레스테롤과 2.6 g/day의 중성지방을 배설하였다. 따라서 0.5%의 콜레스테롤을 첨가하고 5%의 식이섬유를 보리 ${\beta}-glucan$ 농축획분으로부터 공급했을 때 체내 지질 흡수가 일어나지 않도록 효율적으로 콜레스테롤과 중성지방이 배설되는 것으로 나타났다. 중성지방 배설과 관련된 효과는 송학 메보리보다 분자량이 크고 점성이 높은 찰쌀보리가 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
