Abstract
In order to investigate the availability of insect resources for agrobiotechnological or medical purposes, we examined antioxidant (DPPH and FRAP assay) and cell viability by oxidant stress and NO inhibition assay by treatment of the extracts of Statilia maculata Thunberg, Tenodera angustipennis Saussure and Tenodera aridifolia Stoll. We found that Tenodera angustipennis Saussure and Tenodera aridifolia Stoll extract (DW, etanol, methanol) had high levels of anti-oxidant activity, whereas Tenodera aridifolia Stoll extract showed increased cell viability by hydrogen peroxide and inhibition of NO production. These findings suggest that Statilia maculata Thunberg, Tenodera angustipennis Saussure and Tenodera aridifolia Stoll, extract have potentials to be developed for agrobiotechnology or medicinal use, indicating that mechanistic study including inhibition against molecular inflammation will show a possibility for the development of useful insect resources.
한의학에서 사마귀는 여러 치료의 목적으로 사용이 되는 한약재이다. 본 연구는 사마귀의 항산화활성과 산화스트레스에 대한 억제활성을 검증하기 위하여 실시하였다. 사마귀 3종에 대하여 항산화활성과 과산화수소에 의한 세포사멸 억제 효과, NO 활성 억제 효과를 실시하였다. DPPH, FRAP 활성은 사마귀와 왕사마귀 추출물에서 높게 나타났다.
