肥胖作为全球性公共卫生问题,与肠道菌群失衡密切相关。该研究旨在探究小米多酚奎宁酸(quinic acid,QA)对肥胖人群肠道菌群的调控作用,将QA与肥胖人群的粪便进行体外厌氧发酵,进行发酵动力学参数监测(pH、OD600),利用16S rRNA测序及HPLC代谢物分析,评估QA对菌群结构、代谢活性和功能的影响。结果表明,QA干预显著加速发酵初期pH值下降,促进后期菌群生长;菌群结构分析显示,QA降低了厚壁菌门(Firmicutes)与拟杆菌门(Bacteroidetes)比值,并显著提升经黏液真杆菌属(Blautia)和魏斯氏菌属(Weissella)的丰度。此外,QA通过激活奎宁酸脱氢酶和莽草酸脱氢酶,促进莽草酸生成,改善了肠道菌群代谢。该研究揭示了QA通过调节肠道菌群结构及代谢活性改善肥胖相关代谢紊乱的潜在机制,为开发靶向肠道微生态的功能食品提供了理论依据。
