The main active components of Panax ginseng are ginsenosides. Ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1 are accepted as marker substances for quality control worldwide. The analytical methods currently used to detect these two compounds unfairly penalize steamed and dried (red) P. ginseng preparations, because it has a lower content of those ginsenosides than white ginseng. To manufacture red ginseng products from fresh ginseng, the ginseng roots are exposed to high temperatures for many hours. This heating process converts the naturally occurring ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1 into artifact ginsenosides such as ginsenoside Rg3, Rg5, Rh1, and Rh2, among others. This study highlights the absurdity of the current analytical practice by investigating the time-dependent changes in the crude saponin and the major natural and artifact ginsenosides contents during simmering. The results lead us to recommend (20S)- and (20R)-ginsenoside Rg3 as new reference materials to complement the current P. ginseng preparation reference materials ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1. An attempt has also been made to establish validated qualitative and quantitative analytical procedures for these four compounds that meet International Conference of Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for specificity, linearity, range, accuracy, precision, detection limit, quantitation limit, robustness and system suitability. Based on these results, we suggest a validated analytical procedure which conforms to ICH guidelines and equally values the contents of ginsenosides in white and red ginseng preparations.

The purpose of this study was to develop a new preparation process of ginseng extract using high concentrations of ginsenoside $Rg_3$, a special component in red ginseng. From when the ginseng saponin glycosides transformed into the prosapogenins chemically, they were analyzed using the HPLC method. The ginseng and ginseng extract were processed with several treatment conditions of an edible brewing vinegar. The results indicated that ginsenoside $Rg_3$ quantities increased over 4% at the pH 2-4 level of vinegar treatment. This occurred at temperatures above $R90^{\circ}C$, but not occurred at other pH and temperature condition. In addition, the ginseng and ginseng extract were processed with the twice-brewed vinegar (about 14% acidity). This produced about 1.5 times more ginsenoside $Rg_3$ than those processed with regular amounts of brewing vinegar (about 7% acidity) and persimmon vinegar (about 3% acidity). Though the white ginseng extract was processed with the brewing vinegar over four hr, there was no change for ginsenoside $Rg_3$. However, the VG8-7 was the highest amount of ginsenoside $Rg_3$ (4.71%) in the white ginseng extract, which was processed with the twice-brewed vinegar for nine hr. These results indicate that ginseng treated with vinegar had 10 times the quantity of ginsenoside $Rg_3$, compared to the amount of ginsenoside $Rg_3$ in the generally commercial red ginseng, while ginsenoside $Rg_3$ was not found in raw and white ginseng.

Macrophage scavenger receptors (MSRs) induce microglial interaction with ${\beta}$-amyloid fibrils (fA${\beta}$) that are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although microglia are know n to have a dual effect on formation of plaque and clearance of fA${\beta}$ in the AD brain, receptor-mediated phagocytosis is a very important tool for preventing amyloid plaque via activated microglia in the early stage of AD. In the study, we examined whether ginsonoside Rg3 enhances the microglial Phagocytosis of A${\beta}$1-42 through Phagocytosis assay, gene expression (RT-PCR) and protein assay (western blots) for the cell responsiveness presented between Rg3-treated and non-treated groups. Fluro-labeled Ac-LDL and E.coli particles were used as control proteins for phagocytosis. In previous studies, this was a particularly interesting property of Rg3 in the stimulation and phagocytosis of macrophages in the periphery. We report here that ginsenoside Rg3 increased the expression of type-A MSR (MSR-A) in microglia and thus accelerated the phagocytosis with an effective degradation of engulfed fA${\beta}$. This result suggests that Rg3 may play an important role in removing fA${\beta}$ by enhancing the receptor-mediated phagocytosis. In addition, Rg3 could be a potential candidate for balancing the rate of production of fA${\beta}$ in AD brain.

본 연구는 수삼의 저장기간 (무저장, 2일, 6일, 8일, 10일) 및 저장온도 $(20^{\circ}C,\;34^{\circ}C,\;-10^{\circ}C)$로 구분하여 제조된 홍삼의 품질 및 이화학적 특성변화를 비교 조사하였다. 수삼의 수분함량은 저장일이 길어질수록 감소하는 경향이었다. 수삼을 10일동안의 단기간 저장온도는 $34^{\circ}C$의 냉장저장이 적합하다고 생각한다. 전질소 함량은 저장일 10일로 갈수록 무저장구에 비해 다소 증가하는 경향이었다. 저장온도별로는 실온, 냉동, 냉장저장 순으로 무저장구보다 전질소 함량이 증가함을 보였다. 각각의 저장구별 페놀성 화합물의 함량은 무저장구에 비하여 저장기간이 길수록 증가하는 경향이었다. 저장 온도별로는 냉장 저장구가 실온, 냉동 저장구에 비하여 다소 페놀성 화합물의 함량이 높았다. 저장조건별 홍삼의 사포닌 Rf 에 대한 8종의 $ginsenoside\;Rb_1,\;Rb_2,\;Rc,\;Rd,\;Re,\;$Rg_3,\;Rg_1,\;Rg_2$의 상대적 함량 (%)비 변화를 분석한 결과, 각각 저장조건에서 Rf 대한 $Rb_1,\;Rg_1$의 상대적 함량비가 저장기간이 늘어날수록 감소하는 경향이었다. 기타 ginsenoside 함량변화는 시료간의 차이에서 나타난 것으로 판단되며 저장조건에 따른 변화 경향은 뚜렷하지 않았다. 관능적 성질에서 각각 저장구별로 홍삼의 품질, 맛과 향을 종합적으로 평가하여 볼 때, $34^{\circ}C$에서 냉장저장 운반하는 것이 홍삼 향미의 안정적 유지에 가장 적합한 것으로 평가되었다.

Effects of extrusion conditions (barrel temperature and moisture content) and fermentation time on the antioxidant properties of root hair of tissue cultured raw mountain ginseng (MG) were investigated. The barrel temperature/ moisture combinations were: $110^{\circ}C$/25% (MG1), $140^{\circ}C$/25% (MG2), $110^{\circ}C$/35% (MG3) and $140^{\circ}C$/35% (MG4). Red ginseng (RG) was also investigated. The contents of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and polyphenolic increased after fermentation in RG and even more in MG, while extruded ginseng samples exhibited little change. The increases noted with MG and RG occurred during the first 4 days of fermentation. DPPH radical scavenging activity decreased after extrusion and was significantly higher in MG (20.93%) than RG (1.63%) on the first day of fermentation. DPPH radical scavenging activity in the barrel temperature/moisture combinations were 19.01% (MG1), 14.45% (MG2), 20.37% (MG3) and 15.78% (MG4). The content of polyphenolic compounds in ginseng samples displayed a similar trend. Acidic polysaccharide in RG and MG1${\sim}$MG4 were higher than MG, but decreased during fermentation. Crude saponin in RG and MG1${\sim}$MG4 decreased after 15 days of fermentation, while increasing in MG.

Panax ginseng C.A. Mayer (Araliaceae, P. ginseng) has been used for the enhancement of vascular and immune functions in Korea and Japan for a long time. Ginsenoside $Rb_1$ and $Rg_3$ isolated from P. ginseng head-part butanolic extract (PGHB) were investigated for anti-inflammatory activity. Ginsenosides and PGHB did not affect the cell viability within $0\;-\;100\;{\mu}g/ml$ concentration to RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cells. Ginsenosides and PGHB inhibited partly lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitrite production in a dose-dependent manner. The ginsenosides and PGHB showed partially chemical nitric oxide (NO) quenching (maximum 40%) in the cell-free system. Also, ginsenoside $Rb_1$ and $Rg_3$ inhibited markedly approximately 74 and 54% of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA transcription from LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Taken together, the inhibitory effect of ginsenosides and PGHB on NO production did not occur as a result of cell viability, but was caused by both the chemical NO quenching and the regulation of iNOS. Additionally, the ginsenoside $Rb_1$ and PGHB inhibited prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) synthesis in a concentration-dependent manner, showed approximately 70-98% inhibition at $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ concentration. And the treatment with ginsenosides and PGHB attenuated partially LPS-upregulated cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene transcription. Ginsenoside $Rg_3$ suppressed LPS-stimulated interleukin-6 (IL-6) level to the basal in RAW 264.7 cells. From these results, ginsenoside $Rb_1,\;Rg_3$, and PGHB may be useful for the relief and retardation of immunological inflammatory responses and its action may occur through the reduction of inflammatory mediators, including NO, $PGE_2$, and IL-6 production.

A mixture of 20(R)- and 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg$_{3}$ was obtained under mild acidic hydrolysis from protopanaxadiol saponins, ginsenosides Rb$_{1}$, Rb$_{2}$, Rc and Rd. The product was acetylated to give the peracetates, which were further converted into 20(R)-ginsenoside Rg$_{3}$, 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg$_{3}$, 20(R)-ginsenoside Rh$_{2}$ and 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh$_{2}$ by the direct alkaline treatment depending upon two kinds of temperature conditions respectively. The structure and physicochemical properties of a prosapogenin, 20(R)-ginsenoside Rh$_{2}$, were investigated.
