Abstract

This study was designed to investigate the effect of dietary ${\beta}-carotene$ level on the lipid metabolism and lipid peroxide metabolizing enzyme activities in rats. Male Sprague -Dawley rats were fed on diets containing five levels of ${\beta}-carotene$ (0, 10, 120, 1200, 12000mg/kg diet ; BC 0, BC 1, BC 2, BC 3, BC 4 group). The rats were sacrificed after 7 weeks of the feeding periods. Lipid peroxide value of mitochondrial fraction of rat liver was elevated in ${\beta}-carotene$ restriction group when compared to $\beta$ -carotene groups. Superxide dismutase activity increased significantly by ${\beta}-carotene$ supplementation. Both catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities were reduced with increasing ${\beta}-carotene$ supplementation, except only ${\beta}-carotene$ restriction group. In liver, the contents of total lipid and cholestero decreased by ${\beta}-carotene$ supplementation but triglyceride content was not different among treatment groups. HDL-and total cholesterol ratio in plasma of 12, 000 ${\beta}-carotene$ group decreased, and was similar to that of ${\beta}-carotene$ restriction group.

{\beta}-carotene$은 비타민 A 활성형인 retinol로 전환되어 그 기능을 수행하는 영양소로 알려져있지만 {\beta}-carotene$ 자체로서의 생리적, 영양학적 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 {\beta}-carotene$을 수준별로 공급하여 체내의 지질대사와 항산화 효소의 활성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 계획되었으며 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 간 미토콘드리아에서의 과산화지지르이 함량은 제한군과 과잉 공급군이 다른 처리군들에비해서 상대적인 증가를 보였고 BC 2군에서 가장 낮은 값을 나태내었다. SOD의 활성은 {\beta}-carotene$ 제한군이 공급군에 비해서 유의적으로 증가하여 SOD 활성에 대한 {\beta}-carotene$의 조절효과를 보여주었고 catalase와 GSH-Px의 활성에 대한 {\beta}-carotene$의 조절효과를 보여주었고 catalase와 GSH-Px의 활성은 과잉 공급군의 경우 가장 낮은 값을 보여주었다. {\beta}-carotene$ 공급에 따른 지질 함량의 변화는 간의 경우에 총지질 함량은 {\beta}-carotene$ 공급에 따라 감소하였고 중성지질은 전 군에서 유의적인 차이가 보이지 않았으며 인지질은 BC 2군과 BC 3군에서 유의적으로 낮은 값을 보였다. 콜레스테롤 함량은 BC 1군에서 가장 낮은 값을 보였다. 혈장에서는 {\beta}-carotene$ 공급이 증가함에 따라 중성지질의 함 은 증가하는 경향이었고 HDL-콜레스테롤은 BC 4군에서 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었다. HDL-콜레스테롤 함량비는 {\beta}-carotene$ 공급에 따라 증가되었으나 과잉공급군에서 제한군과 같은 수준으로 감소되었다. 이상의 결과에서와 같이 12,000mg의 {\beta}-carotene$을 급여한 군에서는 지질대사 관련효소 활성도와 체내 지질함량이 적정량을 급여한 군에 비해 크게 변화하였으나 10~1,200mg을 급여한 실험군들 사이에서는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않아 {\beta}-carotene$의 정량적 평가를 위한 지속적인 연구가 필요하다고 본다.하다고 본다.
