Description:D-xylulose(chemical formula: C5H10O5) is a pentanalose monomer of xylose oligosaccharide. In recent years, research has shown that the bifidobacterium in the intestines to the human body has a great role in promoting proliferation, the consumption of xylose can improve the microenvironment of the human body, improve immune system function, and xylose and calcium intake, at the same time can improve the body of calcium absorption and retention rate, prevent constipation, and food good compatibility, its itself in the body after using facilitated diffusion is not fully absorbed. It has a certain effect on the reduction of serum triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein and the increase of high-density lipoprotein, and can reduce the levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in the experimental animals. In addition, from the groups of liver tissue homogenate related enzymology index test results analysis, D - xylulose can significantly improve the lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase, the content of glutathione peroxidase is the most effective at high doses, prompt D xylulose hyperlipidemia prevention effect is dose dependent, D - xylulose for hyperlipidemia had happened with the regulation of therapeutic effect, can be further study and the application prospect of exploration as an adjuvant therapy drug.
The lipid-lowering effect of d-xylulose on hyperlipidemia model rats was not significantly different in cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, and low-density lipoprotein (P > 0.05), but the data showed a trend of improvement, and the effect was obvious in the high-dose group. It is speculated that this result may be related to the short experimental time. Morphological manifestations showed that d-xylulose had a significant protective effect on liver cells after hepatic steatosis.
According to the analysis of the detection results of enzymatic indexes related to liver homogenization in each group, d-xylulose can significantly improve the content of lipoprotein lipase, liver lipase and glutathione peroxidase, and the highest dose of the drug has the most significant effect, suggesting that d-xylulose has dose-dependent effect on the prevention of hyperlipidemia.
Xylulose is a ketopentose, a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms, and including a ketone functional group. It has the chemical formula C5H10O5. In nature, it occurs in both the L- and D-enantiomers.
