| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effect of inhibiting metabolic syndrome by ingestion of milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) was examined in vivo and in vitro.
MFGM showed the effect of preventing arteriosclerosis in two stages by suppressing foaming of macrophages and inducing apoptosis in it. The mouse intervention study with MFGM showed significant suppression effect of suppression of weight gain, liver triglyceride and increase of blood free fatty acid concentration. In addition, suppression of the expression of the inflammatory cytokine such as TNF-α in adipose tissue and suppression of blood glucose concentration increase were observed.
From these facts, MFGM is expected to improve chronic inflammation due to obesity and insulin resistance, and it was shown that MFGM could be a candidate for metabolic syndrome suppression foods.
