【 摘 要 】

Epidemiological studies have identified increased colorectal cancer (CRC) risk with high red meat (HRM) intakes, whereas dietary fibre intake appears to be protective. In the present study, we examined whether a HRM diet increased rectal O-6-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine (O(6)MeG) adduct levels in healthy human subjects, and whether butyrylated high-amylose maize starch (HAMSB) was protective. A group of twenty-three individuals consumed 300 g/d of cooked red meat without (HRM diet) or with 40 g/d of HAMSB (HRM + HAMSB diet) over 4-week periods separated by a 4-week washout in a randomised cross-over design. Stool and rectal biopsy samples were collected for biochemical, microbial and immunohistochemical analyses at baseline and at the end of each 4-week intervention period. The HRM diet increased rectal O(6)MeG adducts relative to its baseline by 21% (P<0.01), whereas the addition of HAMSB to the HRM diet prevented this increase. Epithelial proliferation increased with both the HRM (P<0.001) and HRM + HAMSB (P<0.05) diets when compared with their respective baseline levels, but was lower following the HRM + HAMSB diet compared with the HRM diet (P<0.05). Relative to its baseline, the HRM + HAMSB diet increased the excretion of SCFA by over 20% (P<0.05) and increased the absolute abundances of the Clostridium coccoides group (P<0.05), the Clostridium leptum group (P<0.05), Lactobacillus spp. (P<0.01), Parabacteroides distasonis (P<0.001) and Ruminococcus bromii (P<0.05), but lowered Ruminococcus torques (P<0.05) and the proportions of Ruminococcus gnavus, Ruminococcus torques and Escherichia coli (P<0.01). HRM consumption could increase the risk of CRC through increased formation of colorectal epithelial O(6)MeG adducts. HAMSB consumption prevented red meat-induced adduct formation, which may be associated with increased stool SCFA levels and/or changes in the microbiota composition.
