In this year, we conducted a screening experiment using different food products (Manuka Honey, Rice Bran and Soy Beans) in the animal models that we have created in last year.Unfortunately, Manuka Homey and Soy Beans supplementation did not improve colitis. As such, we aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of Oryza sativa, rice bran(RB) dietrary intervention on 2.0% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-included colitis C57BL/6L mice mode. Body weight loss, disease activity index, colon length and colon histopathology were improved in BR-fed mice. Time-course microbiome and metabolome results suggest that RB-related alterations of gut environment can prevent colitis via establishing gut homeostasis. Our approach is an important tool in developing new therapeutic applications of RB.
