Abstract

The hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects from Wa-song (Orostachys japonicus) extracts with mixtures of medicinal herbs (such as Baekbokyung, Changchul and Sa-in) were evaluated in the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Thirty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to five groups; normal, diabetic control (D-control), a group fed a medicinal herbs mixture (D-MH), and a group fed composites of O. japonicus with mixtures of medicinal herbs (1:1, D-MHOA and 3:1, D-MHOB). All were fed on their diet for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, the body weight of all experimental groups increased compared to the diabetic control group, with the D-MHOB group having a significantly higher increase. Fasting glucose levels in all experimental groups (compared to the D-control group) significantly decreased after 2 weeks, but between 2~3 weeks, the levels in the D-MH group were similar to the D-MHOA group. After 4 weeks, the fasting glucose level of the D-MHOB group was the lowest compared to the other groups. In a test of oral glucose tolerance, blood glucose levels were highest 60 minutes after feeding glucose; however this level improved significantly in the groups fed an experimental diet compared to the D-control group. Glycosylated hemoglobin levels were 1.9 times higher in the D-control group than the normal (3.9%), but levels in the experimental groups were significantly decreased in D-MHOA and D-MHOB groups compared to the D-MH group. In the high amounts of O. japonicus to medicinal herbs mixture, total lipids and cholesterol significantly decreased in the serum, while HDL-C levels increased. GPT activity was significantly lower in the D-MHOB group compared to the other groups. Lipid peroxide levels decreased in the D-MHOA and D-MHOB groups compared to the D-MH group. Antioxidant activity was higher depending on the dose of O. japonicus. Overall, O. japonicus exhibited effective hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic actions enhanced by a combination of medicinal herbs.

생약재(백복령, 사인 및 창출) 추출물을 동량으로 혼합한 것에 와송 추출물을 첨가하여 만든 복합물이 당뇨쥐의 혈당강하 및 혈중 지질 성분 변화에 미치는 영향을 실험하였다. 정상군, 당뇨 대조군, 생약재 혼합물 급여군(D-MH), 생약재 혼합물과 와송 추출물의 1:1 복합물 급여군(D-MHOA) 및 1:3 복합물 급여군(D-MHOB)으로 구분하여 4주간 실험 사육하였다. 실험 사육 4주 후 체중의 증가량은 모든 실험군이 당뇨 대조군에 비해 증가되었으나, D-MHOB군에서만 유의적인 증가를 보였다. 실험 사육 기간 동안 공복 혈당은 실험 식이의 급여 2주 후부터 모든 실험군에서 대조군에 비해 유의적인 감소를 보였으며, 2~3주 동안에는 D-MH군과 D-MHOA군 간에 비슷한 수준이었다. 4주 후에는 D-MHOB군의 공복 혈당이 가장 낮았다. 내당능 측정 결과, 포도당 급여 60분에 모든 실험군에서 최고 혈당치를 보였으나, 생약재 혼합물 및 와송의 복합물 급여군이 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 개선되었다. 당화 헤모글로빈 함량은 정상군(3.9%)에 비해 대조군이 약 1.9배 증가되었으며, D-MH군에 비해 D-MHOA 및 D-MHOB군에서 유의적으로 감소되었다. 생약재에 대한 와송의 첨가량이 많을수록 혈청 총 지질 및 총 콜레스테롤 함량은 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 감소되었으나, HDL-C 함량은 D-MHOB군이 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 높았다. GPT 활성은 D-MHOB군이 여타의 실험군에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다. 생약재 혼합물 급여군에 비해서 와송 추출물의 첨가군에서 지질과산화물 함량은 감소되었으나 와송의 첨가량에 따른 유의차는 작았다. 항산화 활성은 와송의 첨가량에 따라 유의적으로 증가하였다. 따라서 와송은 생약재 혼합물에 첨가됨으로써 혈당 저하 및 지질 개선 효과를 증가시키는 것으로 확인되었다.
