What is The effect of Sichuan pepper on gut microbiota in mice fed a high-sucrose and low-dietary fibre diet about?
Sichuan pepper (Zanthoxylum bungeanum, HJ), a spice widely used in China, has antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-obesity properties. In this study, to confirm the value of HJ as a functional food, the in vitro antioxidant and bile acid-lowering capacities, as well as the effects on caecal microbiota, were compared with those of cumin (Cuminum cyminum, CM) and coriander (Coriandrum sativum, CR) seeds in Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice fed a high-sucrose and low-dietary fibre diet. The total phenolic content, superoxide anion radical-scavenging capacity, and Fe-reducing power of the HJ aqueous solution were higher than those of CM and CR (p < 0.05). The bile acid (taurocholic, glycocholic, and deoxycholic acids)-lowering capacity of the HJ suspension was also higher than those of CM and CR. Compared with mice fed a control diet (no fibre, NF), caecal Lactobacillus gasseri-and Muribaculum intestinale-like bacteria were higher in mice fed a diet containing 5% (w/w) of CM, CR, or HJ for 14 days. Bifidobacterium pseudolongum-, Lactobacillus murinus/ animalis-, and Faecalibaculum rodentium-like bacteria were significantly increased, while Desulfovibrio-like
