헛개나무(Hovenia dulcis THUNBER var. koreana Nakai) 추출물의 간 기능 개선 작용 및 간암세포 증식억제 효능 검정

The ADH-like and ALDH-like activities in the Hovenia extracts were studied. The Hovenia extracts have an high effects on the alcohol and acetealdehyde degradation. The ADH-like and ALDH-like activities in the Hovenia extract were $1.14\;unit/{\mu}{\ell}$, $0.33\;unit/{\mu}{\ell}$ respectively. The Hovenia extracts were decreased concertration of fusel oil by biochemical function of alcohol hydrolysis. In this study, antihepatotoxic and anticancer activity of Hovenia extracts were inviestigated. The ethanol extracts have a highest GST activity. Furthermore the growth of SNU-398 cancer cells were inhibited by the addition of Hovenia extracts. The culture media mixture to Hovenia extract of $1\;mg/m{\ell}$ was not observed connective cell and adhere to flat of liver cancer cell.

헛개나무의 추출물을 이용하여 alcohol과 acetaldehyde, fusel oil류 대한 분해효과를 검정한 결과 alcohol 분해 및 숙취해소에 효과가 높은 것으로 확인하였으며, 체내 독성물질 제거를 위한 GST activity를 측정한 결과 헛개나무 추출물이 GST 효소와 비교 시 약 2배 정도의 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 헛개나무 추출물의 간암세포의 성장에 미치는 효과를 알아본 결과 $1\;mg/m{\ell}$에서 간암세포의 성장을 억제하는 것을 확인하였다.
