A diet supplemented with soy protein may ease the severity of chronic inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, according to American research carried out on mice and cultured human colon cells. The news comes ahead of World Inflammatory Bowel Disease Day, May 19.
据美国开展的一项基于老鼠和人工培养的人类结肠细胞的研究表示：一份补充大豆蛋白的饮食或能缓解炎症性肠道疾病病情，比如克罗恩病和溃疡性结肠炎O4e|uuT8F]TE*|。这一消息发生在5月19日世界炎症性肠道疾病日之前,!qvp4sg=v。
Researchers at Penn State University in the USA found that soy protein concentrate had an antioxidant and cytoprotective effect in cultured human bowel cells and moderated the severity of inflammation in mice with induced inflammatory bowel disease.
美国宾夕法尼亚州立大学的研究人员发现：大豆蛋白浓缩物在人工培养的人肠细胞中含一种抗氧化剂，并有保护细胞的作用，能缓和患有炎症性肠道疾病的小鼠的炎症程度3&FnWg%gFmgyklvilk。
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are two forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), characterized by chronic inflammation of all or part of the digestive tract, generally the intestine, the colon and the rectum. Symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, appetite loss and weight loss.
克罗恩病和溃疡性结肠炎是两种不同的炎症性肠道疾病，其特征是全部或部分消化道，通常为肠、结肠和直肠的慢性炎症!(yN1^jg_V,VP。症状包括腹痛、腹泻、疲劳、没胃口和体重下降ANQR|oglGQCpHaG。
Mice with an induced condition similar to ulcerative colitis were given a dietary soy protein concentrate (12%). An equivalent amount of other forms of protein was removed from their diet to replicate a more human-relevant scenario. Both body weight loss and swelling of the spleen improved in the mice. What's more, the scientists observed reduced inflammation in the colon and improved gut barrier function.

The researchers consider that the inflammation-moderating effects may be linked to soy protein, but not solely. In fact, the soy protein concentrate contains 70% protein as well as some soy fiber, which could also have a beneficial effect on the digestive system. The scientists plan further studies to investigate.

Four million people worldwide suffer from IBD. Both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are treated with anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory therapies or by surgery in severe cases. World Inflammatory Bowel Disease Day is May 19, 2017. The study is published in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry.
