| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether PHGG ameliorates small intestinal mucosal damage and alters the intestinal microbiota using a rat small bowel resection (SBR) model. Sprague Dawley rats were divided into sham operation (Sham), Sham/PHGG, SBR, and SBR/PHGG groups. On day 21, all rats were euthanized. To assess small intestinal mucosal damage, the degeneration rate was morphometrically evaluated and immunohistochemically examined using anti-CD45 antibodies. Analyses of fecal microbiota using 16S rRNA and short-chain fatty acid production were also performed. The mucosal degeneration rate was significantly higher in the SBR group than in the Sham or SBR/PHGG groups. The number of CD45-positive cells was significantly higher in the SBR group than in the Sham, Sham/PHGG, or SBR/PHGG groups. PHGG administration alleviated small intestinal mucosal damage which could be associated with modulation of the intestinal microbiota.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究に使用した水溶性食物繊維Guar Gum (PHGG)はすでに市販されており、希少糖と同様に抗炎症作用による細胞保護作用があることが分かった。薬剤ではないため、短腸症候群のみならず、炎症性腸疾患にも応用がしやすいと思われた。
