Abstract

The protective effects of Red Ginseng on liver damage induced by linac X-ray and paraquat were investigated. To one group of ICR male mice were given in Red Ginseng(200mg/kg/day for 7days, orally) before 5Gy(1.01Gy/min) dose of linac X-ray irradiation. To another group were given in Red Ginseng (200mg/kg/day for 7days, orally) before paraquat(30mg/kg/day, orally) was Radiation irradiation group were given with saline(0.1ml) and 5Gy. Contrast group were given with saline(0.1ml). The levels of H2O2, catalase and MDA in liver tissue were measured. In Red Ginseng to paraquat(RG+PQ) group and Red Ginseng(RG+Rad) group than irradiation group(Rad), the catalase level were significantly increased, and the catalase levels were appeared at radiation protection. The Red Ginseng was significantly decreased to MDA and H2O2 level to paraquat(RG+PQ) group and Red Ginseng(RG+Rad) group than irradiation group(Rad). Therefore, Red Ginseng was very excellent protector on radiation and paraquat of liver in mice.

방사선과 paraquat에 의해서 유도된 간 손상에 대한 홍삼추출물의 보호효과를 비교 연구하였다. ICR계 생쥐에게 X선의 5Gy조사와 paraquat투여 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하였다. 대조군은 생리적 식염수를 투여하고 방사선조사군은 생리적 식염수를 투여하면서 5Gy를 조사하였다. 홍삼추출물 투여군은 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하면서 5Gy를 조사하였다. Paraquat투여군은 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하면서 paraquat(30mg/kg/day)를 투여하였다. 그리고 각각의 실험군에서 간조직의 H2O2, catalase, MDA를 측정하였다. 그 결과 방사선조사군과 paraquat투여군보다 홍삼추출물 투여군에서 catalase함량이 유의성 있게 증가하여 간의 보호효과가 있었으며 H2O2와 MDA함량도 유의성 있게 감소하였다. 홍삼추출물은 간 조직에 대한 방사선조사 및 paraquat투여로부터 매우 우수한 방호제라고 할 수가 있다.
