Palm oil (PO), leaf lard oil (LO), rapeseed oil (RO), sunflower oil (SO), and linseed oil (LINO) are the five of the most typical dietary lipids, while few studies have explored and compared their influences on the serum lipid profiles, colonic short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) composition and colon health of Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. Results from the present work showed that PO and LO groups showed significantly higher serum TG and TC level compared with Ctrl group, whereas, the LDL-C/HDL-C and TC/HDL-C ratio were significantly lower in the RO, SO and LINO groups. Different dietary lipid consumption (15% of the normal diet) decreased the colonic SCFAs concentration. The saturated fatty acid (SFA) was negatively correlated, while unsaturated fatty acid (UFA)/SFA ratio was positively correlated, with colonic isobutyric acid concentration. The C18:2ω6 and ω3 fatty acids were positively correlated with colonic butyric acid and isovaleric acid concentration, respectively. Results also demonstrated that PO and LO could decrease the colon villus length and crypt depth, and led to colon injury, which might be due to their high SFAs content. Moreover, results suggested that PO and LO could specifically up-regulate the colon inflammation related gene expression levels and down-regulate the Muc2 expression levels, thus, imposing negative impact on the mucus layers. The present study could provide some information for nutritional evaluation about these dietary lipids.
