| contents | Ginsenosides From Panax ginseng Improves Hepatic Lipid Metabolism Disorders in HFD ‐Fed Rats by Regulating Gut Microbiota and Cholesterol Metabolism Signaling Pathways Yue Zhu Kang‐xi Zhang Qing‐yun Bu Shu‐xia Song Yue Chen Hong Zou Xiao‐yan You Guo‐ping Zhao Phytotherapy Research ABSTRACT A high‐fat diet (HFD) is often associated with hepatic lipid metabolism disorders, leading to dysfunction in multiple body systems. Ginsenosides derived from Panax ginseng have been reported to possess potential effects in ameliorating lipid metabolism disorders; however, their underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently explored. This study aims to investigate the bioactivities of ginsenosides in combating lipid metabolism disorders and obesity, with a focus on their mechanisms involving the cholesterol metabolism signaling pathway and gut microbiota. Our results demonstrated that ginsenoside treatment significantly reduced overall body weight, body weight changes, liver weight, and eWAT weight, as well as alleviated hepatic steatosis and dyslipidemia in HFD‐fed rats, without affecting food intake. These effects were dose‐dependent. Furthermore, 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that ginsenosides significantly increased the relative abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila, Blautia, Eisenbergiella, Clostridium clusters XI, XVIII, and III, while decreasing the relative abundance of Clostridium subcluster XIVa and Dorea. In addition, ginsenoside treatment significantly regulated the expression of hepatic genes and proteins involved in the cholesterol metabolism signaling pathway (FXR, CYP7A1, CYP7B1, CYP27A1, ABCG5, ABCG8, Insig2, and Dhcr7), potentially inhibiting hepatic cholesterol biosynthesis while promoting cholesterol transport to HDL and its excretion via bile and feces. Notably, levels of 7‐dehydrocholesterol (7‐DHC) and 27‐hydroxycholesterol (27‐OHC) were reduced, while 5β,6β‐epoxycholesterol (5,6β‐epoxy) levels were elevated following ginsenoside treatment, indicating significant modulation of oxysterols by ginsenosides. Moreover, bile acid enterohepatic circulation was regulated through the enhancement of hepatic FXR‐CYP7A1 signaling and intestinal FXR‐FGF15 signaling in HFD‐fed rats treated with ginsenosides, which was closely linked to gut microbiota composition. Collectively, our findings suggest that ginsenosides alleviate hepatic lipid metabolism disorders by modulating gut microbiota and the cholesterol metabolism signaling pathway in HFD‐fed rats. 10.1002/ptr.8402 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
