Abstract

Effects of Ramaria botrytis methanol extract on hepatotoxicity in $benzo({\alpha})pyrene(B({\alpha})P)-treated$ mice were investigated. R. botrytis methanol extract was intraperitioneally injected once a day for successive 5 days, followed by treatment with $B({\alpha})P$ on the fifth day. Antioxidant activities of R. botrytis methanol extract were examined by measuring the free radical-scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. In DPPH method, R. botrytis methanol extract showed strong antioxidative activies. The increased activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase after $B({\alpha})P-treatment$ were decreased by treatment of R. botrytis methanol extract. Glutathione content and glutathione S-transferase activity depleted by $B({\alpha})P$ were significantly increased, but elevation of lipid peroxide content induced by $B({\alpha})P$ was decreased by R. botrytis methanol extract. These results suggest that R. botrytis methanol extract is believe to be a possible protective effect against $B(\alpha)P-induced$ hepatotoxicity in mice.

싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 항산화 효능을 DPPH법에 의한 free radical 소거작용능 및 $B({\alpha})P$로 간 독성이 유발된 마우스에서 항산화 효소, 글루타치온 및 과산화지질 함량 변화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 먼저 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 항산화능을 DPPH radical 소거 작용법으로 시험한 결과 싸리버섯 추출물은 강한 자유라디칼 소거 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 $B({\alpha})P$투여로 인한 간 조직중의 SOD, catalase 그리고 GSH-Px의 활성은 유의적으로 증가되었다가, 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 전 처리로 이들 활성이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 반면, GST 활성과 간 조직중의 글루타치온 함량은 $B({\alpha})P$ 단독군에서는 감소되었다가 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물 투여시 유의적인 증가를 보였다. 그러나 지질과산화물 함량은 $B({\alpha})P$ 투여시 증가되었다가 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 투여시 유의적으로 감소되었다. 이상의 결과로 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물은 항산화계 효소의 활성 증가로 인한 $B({\alpha})P$에 의한 간 손상에 대한 보호효과를 가지는 것으로 사료된다.
