당뇨병 상태에서 항산화영양소인 carotenoids의 공급이 체내 항산화비타민의 함량에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대하여 조사하고자 Sprague-Dawley종 흰쥐를 이용하여 당뇨를 유도하고 비타민 A와 E의 함량 변화를 측정하였다. 당뇨를 유도하기 전에는 체중증가량에 있어서 별다른 차이를 나타내지 않았으나 당뇨가 유도된 후에는 체중증가량이 감소되었으나 $\beta$-carotene의 섭취에 의한 영향은 나타나지 않았다. 식이섭취량은 당뇨쥐에서 대조군에 비해 별다른 차이를 나타내지 않았으나 식이효율은 대조군에 비해 당뇨군에서 유의적으로 감소되었다. 당뇨 유도로 흰쥐의 혈당치는 대조군에 비하여 2배 이상 증가하였으나 당뇨군 사이에서 $\beta$-carotene의 급여에 의한 혈당강하 효과는 관찰되지 않았다. 혈장의 retinol 함량은 당뇨군에서 유의적으로 감소하였으나 $\beta$-carotene의 급여에 의한 영향은 관찰되지 않았다. 당뇨군에서 retinol함량이 유의적으로 감소되었고 혈장의 $\alpha$-to-copherol의 함량은 혈장 지질 함량을 이용하여 보정하였을 때 당뇨군에서 현저한 감소를 보였으나 $\beta$-carotene의 급여에 의한 영향은 나타나지 않았다. 간조직 중의 retinol과 retinyl palmitate 함량은 당뇨 유발군에서 유의적인 감소를 보였으며, $\beta$-carotene 급여에 의해 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그러나 $\alpha$-tocopherol 함량은 당뇨 유도와 $\beta$-carotene급여에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다. 이상의 결과를 통해 볼 때 당뇨병 환자의 혈관계 합병증을 예방하기 위해 한국인의 식생활에서 $\beta$-carotene 섭취를 효과적으로 할 수 있는 실제적인 식사관리 방안을 강구한다면 당뇨병환자의 혈관계 합병증을 완화시킬 수 있으리라고 여겨진다.

방사선 조사식품의 지용성 비타민에 대한 안정성을 확인하기 위하여 지용성 비타민 중 $\beta-carotene$, 비타민 $D_3$, $\alpha-tocopherol$을 택하여 한국인의 상용 식품이면서 각각의 급원식품인 귤, 멸치, 쇠고기에 대해 방사선조사 전후의 해당 비타민 함량을 분석하였다. 귤의 $\beta-carotene$의 함량은 조사구가 비조사구에 비해 약간 증가하는 경향을 보였으나 유의적이지는 않았다. 멸치의 비타민 $D_3$ 함량은 조사선량에 비례하여 5kGy 조사 시 $109.30\%$, 10kGy 조사 시 $125.25\%$로 증가하였다. (p<0.05). 소고기의 $\alpha-tocopherol$ 함량은 고지방 부위인 등심육의 경우 조사선량에 따라 큰 폭으로 감소되어 비조사구에 비해 10kGy 조사구에서 $84\%$의 감소율을 보였으나, 지방함량이 비교적 적은 사태육의 경우 조사구 모두에서 비조사구 대비 약 $13\%$의 감소율을 보였다. 순수 용액의 비타민 A, 비타민 $D_3,\;\alpha-tocopherol$은 조사선량에 비례하여 함량이 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며 특히, 비타민 $D_3$는 지용성 비타민 중 조사에 가장 안정한 비타민으로 나타났고, $\alpha-tocopherol$의 경우는 10kGy 처리구에서 전량 감소를 보여 지용성 비타민 중 조사에 가장 취약한 비타민으로 나타났다. 마이크로웨이브 처리구나 가열 처리구에서는 이들 지용성 비타민들의 손실이 거의 없었다. 이사의 결과로부터 10kGy이내의 방사선 조사 시, 귤의 $\beta-carotene$ 함량에는 영향을 미치는 않는 것으로 보이며, 비타민 $D_3$의 경우는 적어도 10kGy까지는 매우 안정함을 보여주었고 지방함량이 높은 등심육의 경우 $\alpha-tocopherol$의 상당한 분해가 일어남을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intake of antioxidant vitamins and plasma concentrations of those in 60 maternal-infant pairs (30 in normal term delivery group, NT; 30 in preform delivery group, PT). We also investigated the relationship between vitamin levels of maternal-umbilical cord plasma and pregnancy outcome. Mean energy intakes of NT and PT pregnant women were 93.2% and 85.4%, and their protein intakes were 113.3% and 110.9% of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA), respectively. While vitamin A intakes were only 51.2% and 39.6% of the RDA in NT and PT pregnant women. The vitamin E intake was about 50% of the RDA (NT 6.27 mg, PT 7.78 mg). The levels of retinol in maternal plasma of NT and PT were $1.51\mumol/\ell\;and\;1.43\mumol/\ell$, respectively. The retinol levels in umbilical cord plasma in NT and PT were $0.72\mumol/\ell\;and\;0.61\mumol/\ell$, respectively. The level of $\beta-carotene$in maternal plasma of NT was 0.49 $\mu$mol/$\ell$, significantly (p ＜ 0.01) higher than that of PT ($0.31\mumol/\ell$).The $\beta-carotene$ of umbilical cord plasma of NT and PT were $0.702\mumol/\ell\;and\;0.01\mumol/\ell$, respectively. The plasma $\alpha$-tocopherol of maternal of NT and PT were $0.72\mumol/\ell\;and\;0.01\mumol/\ell\;29.51 /mumol/\ell\; and 27.17\mumol/\ell,\;respectively.\; The $\alpha$-tocopherol of umbilical cord plasma of NT and PT were $4.16\mumol/\ell\;and\;3.80\mumol/\ell$, respectively. The antioxidant vitamin levels (retinol, $\beta-carotene,\;and\;\alpha$-tocopherol) in maternal plasma were significantly higher (p＜0.0001) than those in umbilical cord plasma. However, there was no correlation between the vitamin levels in maternal plasma and those in umbilical cord plasma. The maternal plasma $\beta$-carotene level showed a positive correlation to gestational age. Also Apgar score at 1 min produced a positive correlation to maternal plasma $\beta$-carotene level.

Carotenoids는 항암 효과가 있는 것으로 알려져 있으나 각각의 carotenoids가 대장암에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 명확하게 밝혀진 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 4가지 종류의 carotenoids가 인간의 대장에서 유래한 암세포인 HT-29 세포의 증식에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $\alpha$-carotene, $\beta$-carotene, lutein lycopene을 농도를 달리 하여 세포 배양액 에 첨가하여 살아있는 세포의 수를 측정한 결과 $\beta$-carotene는 세포의 증식을 다소 증가시키는 반면 $\alpha$-carotene, lutein, lcopene은 세포의 증식을 감소하였다. 세포의 증식을 억제한 carotenoids 중에서 lycopene이 그 효과가 가장 컸다. ErbB receptor family는 세포의 증식을 촉진하고 대장암에서 그 발현이 증가된 것으로 보고되었기 때문에 lycopene이 heregulin-ErbB3 signaling을 억제하는지를 조사하였다. Lycopene는 ErbB2 단백질을 감소하였고 ErbB3 단백질의 변화를 초래하였다. Heregulin을 첨가하여 인산화를 유도한 경우 ErbB3의 인산화, ErbB3와 p85의 결합, Akt 인산화가 lycopene에 의해 억제되었다. 이 결과들은 carotenoids 중 lycopene이 대장암 세포 증식 억제 효과가 가장 크고, 대장암 세포의 DNA 합성을 억제하고 apoptosis를 유도하는 lycopene효과의 일부는 Erb-B3와 Akt의 인산화 감소에 기인하는 것임을 나타낸다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effects of the starch concentration of filled hydrogel and the addition of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and simulated mastication processing in an oral phase on lipid digestion and ${\beta}-carotene$ bioaccessibility of filled hydrogels. Methods: Lipid digestion and ${\beta}-carotene$ bioaccessibility of the filled hydrogels were measured after the samples were passed through an in vitro gastrointestinal tract model consisting of oral, gastric, and small intestinal phases. Results: The initial rate and final extent of lipid digestion were higher in the filled hydrogels than in the emulsion when the filled hydrogels were treated in an oral phase without simulated mastication processing and addition of ${\alpha}-amylase$, regardless of starch concentration. However, when the filled hydrogels were minced using mortar and pestle for 2 min and were exposed to ${\alpha}-amylase$, the filled hydrogel fabricated with 5% starch showed the lowest lipid digestion rate and extent compared to the emulsion and other filled hydrogels. Bioaccessibility of ${\beta}-carotene$ was higher in the filled hydrogels than in the emulsion, regardless of the digestion method performed in an oral phase and starch concentration. However, there were appreciable differences in bioaccessibility of the filled hydrogels depending on whether or not simulated mastication and addition of ${\alpha}-amylase$ were employed. Conclusion: These results suggested that the rheological properties of initial filled hydrogels and simulated mastication processing in an oral phase plays an important role in determining the lipid digestion and ${\beta}-carotene$ bioacccessibility entrapped within filled hydrogels.

The spontaneous frequency of genetic damage and the possible relationship of this damage to total radical-trapping antioxidant potential(TRAP) and antioxidant vitamins, including plasma levels of $\alpha$-carotene, $\beta$-carotene, cryptoxanthin, retinol, $\alpha$-tocopherol and ${\gamma}$-tocopherol in humans were investigated in 57 subjects using two indices of genetic damage, SCE & HFC frequency. The mean of SCE and HFC frequencies were weakly correlated with plasma TRAP(r=-0.305, p<0.1 for SCEs: r=-0.297, p<0.1 for HFCs, respectively), but those were strongly negatively correlated with plasma $\beta$-carotence(r=-0.385, p<0.01 for SCEs : r=-0.392, p<0.01 for HFCs) and cryptoxanthin(r=-0.312, p<0.05 for SCEs : r=0.335, p<0.05 for HFCs, respectively) levels in the subjects. However, those DNA damage markers including SCE and HFC did not correlate with either plasma $\alpha$-carotene, $\alpha$-tocopherol or retinol concentrations. The mean of SCE and HFC frequencies were positively correlated with plasma ${\gamma}$-tocopherol level(r=0.421, p<0.01 for SCEs : r=0.399, p<0.01 for HFCs, respectively). These findings indicate that increased cytogenetic DNA changes, as determined by SCE and HFC frequencies are possibly associated with generation of free radicals in lymphocytes and decreased plasma antioxidant vitamin($\beta$-carotene and cryptoxanthin) status in the subjects.

Background: Despite many epidemiological studies on the effects of dietary antioxidant micronutrients on risk of cervical cancer, the findings remain uncertain and little evidence is available for serum nutrient markers. The present study aimed to examine the relationship between serum carotenoid, retinol and tocopherol concentrations and risk of cervical cancer among Chinese women. Materials and Methods: We conducted a hospital-based case-control study in which 358 adults (158 incident cases and 200 controls) were recruited from Xinjiang, China. Serum levels of carotenoids (${\alpha}$-carotene, ${\beta}$-carotene, ${\beta}$-cryptoxanthin, lycopene and lutein/zeaxanthin), retinol, and tocopherols (${\alpha}$-tocopherol and ${\gamma}$-tocopherol) were assessed by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Results: We found inverse associations between serum carotenoid (${\alpha}$-carotene, ${\beta}$-carotene, and lutein/zeaxanthin) and tocopherol (${\alpha}$-tocopherol) concentrations and the risk of cervical cancer after adjusting for potential confounders, but a null association for retinol. The ORs for 1-SD increase were 0.71 (95 % CI: 0.56-0.92; p=0.003) for total carotenoids and 0.75 (95 % CI: 0.60-0.94; p=0.008) for total tocopherols. Conclusions: These results show that higher serum concentrations of some carotenoids and tocopherols are associated with a lower risk of cervical cancer among Chinese women.
