Abstract
To investigate possible effects of buckwheat on blood glucose level and blood pressure, Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups and fed either AIN-76 diet or modified AIN-76 diet with buckwheat flour for 4 weeks. At the end of experiment, determinations of blood pressure and blood glucose level(glucose tolerance test) were performed. In order to determine insulin levels in both fasted and glucose loaded serum, the animals in both groups were subdivided into two groups. Blood pressure was slightly decreased in the group fed buckwheat( 6mmHg) but not significantly. Glucose tolerance curve of the animal fed buckwheat flour showed clearly different pattern from that of the control group with decreasing tendency. Mobilization of serum insulin was 1.5 times faster in buckwheat group than in control group 1 hour after glucose loading. Further research is needed to find what substance(s) in buckwheat do this role.
메밀보충급여가 백서의 혈압 및 혈당에 미치는 효과를 검토 하고자 AIN-76 diet와 AIN-76 diet의 탄수화물원을 박피 메밀분으로 교체한 식이로 4주간 사육하여 성장율, 혈당, 인슐린 분비능, 혈압 등의 변화를 측정하고 고찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 동일실험 기간동안 체중증가량 및 식이섭취량은 대조군과 메밀투여군 사이에 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 메밀보충 급여군은 혈당강하작용이 있음이 관찰되었으며, 혈압은 유의성이 없으나 수치적으로 어느 정도 감소시키는 경향을 보였다. 또한 메밀보충급여에 의해 공복시 혈청 인슐린 수준은 낮았으며 혈당을 투여한 후 혈중의 당이 증가하면 분비되는 인슐린 양도 빠르게 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으나 유의성은 없었다.
