| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our present study investigates the functionality of Japanese yam propagules using high-fat loaded mice, with significant increase in plasma alanine-amino transferase concentration and hepatic triacylglycerol level. However, high-fat loading together with propagules suppressed the increases of these parameters. Hepatic transcriptome revealed that the ingestion of propagules mitigated fatty acid metabolic disorder, oxidative stress and ER stress. The mice fed on Japanese yam propagules may thus delay the generation of their hepatic disorder through the modulation of metabolic disorder.
