Radioprotective Effect of Ginseng Components on Antioxidant Enzymes, Glutathione and Lipid Peroxidation of Liver in ${\gamma}$ -Irradiated Mice
홍삼 분획물이 감마선을 비사한 생쥐 간에서 항산화물질과 지질과산화에 미치는 방사선 보호효과
Abstract
In the present study, to determine whether the antioxidative components of Korean red ginseng protect against radiation damage and the possible relationship among the radioprotective effects and antioxidant actions, the effects of total saponin (200 mg/kg, ip) and lipophilic fraction (200 mg/kg, oral) preferment of mice on the survival ratio, major antioxidant enzymes (SOD, catalase and glutathione peroxidase) activities, glutathione levels and lipid peroxidation in the liver were exiled for 2 weeks after whole
