Abstract

An anti-amnesic effect of water extract from Dendropanax morbifera Lev. leaves (DMW) on memory dysfunction in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats was investigated to assess its potential industrial value. Daily administration of DMW (11 weeks) significantly reduced serum glucose, insulin, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels increased by an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 55 mg/kg). In addition, the administration of DMW decreased escape latency and increased the time spent in the platform quadrant in the Morris water maze test. Step-through latency in a passive avoidance test was also improved. Finally, DMW produced ameliorating effects on STZ-induced cholinergic deficit through an inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase and the increment of acetylcholine level in the hippocampus. These results suggest that DMW might be used as a natural substance for improving diabetic induced cognitive impairment.

본 연구는 스트렙토조토신에 의해 당뇨가 유발된 기억력 감퇴 모델에서 황칠나무 잎 열수추출물(DMW)의 학습 및 기억력 개선 효과를 평가하기 위해 수행되어졌다. 6주령의 SD-래트를 총 5개 군으로 분리 하였고, 11주간 24시간 간격으로 DMW를 100과 300 mg/kg b.w.농도로 경구 투여 하였으며, 양성대조군으로 donepezil (1 mg/kg b.w.)을 처리하였다. 7일 간격으로 체중과 혈당을 측정하였으며 STZ군에 비해 DMW군에서 유의한 체중 증가를 확인 할 수 있었다. 혈당 측정 결과 DMW군에서 6주째부터 혈당이 감소하기 시작하였으며, STZ군에 비해 유의적인 혈당 감소를 나타내었다. 혈청 내 바이오마커 측정 결과 혈중 포도당은 DMW 시료군에서 유의하게 감소하였고, 인슐린 호르몬 농도와 혈액 요소질소 또한 유의한 감소를 나타내었다. 간 기능 수치와 TG, TC, 그리고 크레아틴 농도에서는 각 군 간의 유의적 차이는 확인할 수 없었다. Morris water maze test와 passive avoidance test를 통해 STZ로 유도한 당뇨 모델에서 학습 및 기억력 장애를 확인 하였으며, DMW를 투여함으로서 학습 및 기억력이 유의적으로 회복, 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 뇌 해마에서 Ach 함량과 AchE 활성 측정 결과, 당뇨 대조군에 비해 Ach 함량은 증가하였으며, AchE의 활성은 유의적으로 감소 한 것을 확인 하였다. 본 연구 결과로 STZ로 유도된 고 혈당 동물모델에서 황칠나무 잎 열수추출물(DMW)의 당뇨 개선 및 학습, 기억력 개선 효과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 이는 당뇨의 개선 효과와 더불어 고 혈당으로 인한 퇴행성 치매의 예방과 치료에도 일부 효과적일 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 황칠 열수추출물(DMW)이 당뇨에 의한 학습 및 기억력의 저하에 있어 효과적인 대안으로서 보다 더 넓은 분야에서 연구되기를 바라는 바이다.
