Hypolipidemic and Antioxidant Effects of Fermented Rice Buckwheat on High-fat Caenorhabditis elegans

This research aimed to investigate the hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of fermented rice buckwheat. A high-fat model of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) was established by high sugar (10 mmol/L) induction. After the treatment of fermented rice buckwheat, its effects on the longevity, motility, egg production, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, resistance to oxidative stress, and antioxidant enzyme activity of high-fat C. elegans were determined. At the same time, its effect on the triglyceride and free fatty acid content in high-fat C. elegans were examined. The results showed that the maximum life span of high-fat C. elegans intervened by fermented rice buckwheat significantly increased by 30.90% (P
