Resumo(s)
This study tested the hypothesis that naturally and industrially produced trans-fatty acids can exert
distinct efects on metabolic parameters and on gut microbiota of rats. Wistar rats were randomized
into three groups according to the diet: CONT-control, with 5% soybean oil and normal amount of
fat; HVF-20% of hydrogenated vegetable fat (industrial); and RUM-20% of ruminant fat (natural).
After 53 days of treatment, serum biochemical markers, fatty acid composition of liver, heart and
adipose tissue, histology and hepatic oxidative parameters, as well as gut microbiota composition
were evaluated. HVF diet intake reduced triglycerides (≈ 39.39%) and VLDL levels (≈ 39.49%). Transfatty acids levels in all tissue were higher in HVF group. However, RUM diet intake elevated amounts
of anti-infammatory cytokine IL-10 (≈ 14.7%) compared to CONT, but not to HVF. Furthermore,
RUM intake led to higher concentrations of stearic acid and conjugated linoleic acid in all tissue; this
particular diet was associated with a hepatoprotective efect. The microbial gut communities were
signifcantly diferent among the groups. Our results show that ruminant fat reversed the hepatic
steatosis normally caused by high fat diets, which may be related to the remodelling of the gut
microbiota and its anti-infammatory potential.
