The aim of this study was to evaluate the basic data of Cirsium setidens Nakai fine powder (FPC), which will then be used in the development of functional fooditems. We measures and evaluated the level of pectolinarin content, phenol content, flavonoids content, antioxidants and anti-obesity properties of FPC. Our results from the study showed that the pectolinarin, phenol, and flavonoids contents of FPC measured at 10.95±0.1 5mg/g, 12.92±0.18 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g and 26.47±0.77 mg rutin equivalent (RE)/g, respectively. The exhibited antioxidant activity of FPC increased significantly depending on the dosage, and additionally. FPC did not show any cytotoxicity up to the dosage level of 500 μg/mL. During adipocyte differentiation, FPC significantly inhibited ROS production and lipid accumulation, compared with the control substance. These results suggest that FPC could be considered a promising resource of natural antioxidants and could serve a variety of health-improving roles in the production of functional food ingredients.

Cirsium setidens, Allium hookeri, Aronia melancocarpa, are popular dietary ingredients for Asian cuisine or beverage. this study attempted to search and report the antioxidant activity of extracts of aronia, gondre and samchae, which are used for food in Korea. As a result, total phenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity tended to increase, and Gondre extract showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity effect. The results of a study on the ABTS radical scavenging activity of extracts of Gondre, Aronia, and Samchae showed a tendency for radical scavenging activity to increase as the concentration increased. Gondre hot water extract showed the highest ABTS radical scavenging activity. In this way, antioxidant activity was shown in the order of Gondre, Aronia, and Samchae, and the concentration showed a high activity effect at high concentrations. In the cell protection effect results, the concentration of Gondre extract was 500 ㎍/mL, the Samchae alcohol extract was used at concentrations of 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10 ㎍/mL, and the Aronia extract was used at concentrations of 125 ㎍/mL. and showed a cytoprotective effect at 250 ㎍/mL. We hope that these research results will be used as basic data for the development of various functional foods.

This paper is 1) to find out food tourism possibility with representative local food in Dan Yang, 2) to suggest some guidelines to draw food tourists with how activities related with food affect on visit intention. The questionnaires are distributed 250 in Kyoung gi provice including Seoul. then used for data analysis 248. The results are as followed; First, 43.5% of the all respondents means for having food tourism, but 18.5% means no experiences, just having interest in food tourism. The types of food tourism showed simply visiting famous restaurant or participate on food festival. That means high possibility for food tourism. Second, tourists are tend to chose it according to recommend food by local residents, personal own taste, local cuisine & ingredients, visiting for traditional market in community, and participate on food festival in tour destination. Third, respondents are trying to chose local cuisine such as mushroom broth, mackjeok gui(Korean style barbeque), mixed rice with various herb, and rice with garlic & geondrei herb. Fourth, three variables which are food culture oriented, knowledge & information of food, health oriented in food tourism had high significant in visit intention.

For improvement germination rate of Cirsium setidens, wet seeds were storaged for 20 to 80 days at $4^{\circ}C$ and germinated at $18^{\circ}C$ in the dark or light condition. To assess the effects of shading and plant age on the growth, fresh yield and seed yield under rain shelter in highland at altitude of 800m above sea level, seeds were sown in an open field in late september,1990. In early May the next the seedlings were transplanted for vegetatable and seed production in the plastic houses for rain shelter. They were grown from 1991 to 1993 in the houses covered with the shading nets ranging from 0 to 70% for vegetable production and 0 to 50% for seed production. Germination rate inceased as the storage period lengthened, and the rate came to $60\sim80%$ at 60days after germination. It was more effective in lighting than in darkness. For vegetable production, the shading net treatments showed more values in almost the characters checked at the third year than the non-shading treatment. No. of stem, no, of leaves, stem length and degree of softening were no different between shading net treatments, but the other characters were significantly different. Ratio of survival, density of chlorophyll and ratio of dry matter of plants were highest in the plots of 50%, 70%, and 30% of shading, respectively. The highest fresh yield was recorded from 2-year plants, 70% of shading from them showed the greatest yield. The highest seed yields were produced 2-year-old plants of non-shading plot. For seed production, the non-shading treatment is best, and the highest seed yields were obtained in both the second and third years.

Naturally occurring antioxidants, such as polyphenols are widely found in fruits, vegetables, wines, juices, and other plant-based dietary sources and are divided into several sub classes, including phenylpropanoids, flavonoids, stilbenoids, and lignans. As part of the our ongoing search for bioactive food ingredients, the antioxidant and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation inhibitory activities of the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Cirsium setidens were investigated in vitro bioassay system. The antioxidant properties were evaluated through radical scavenging assays using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) ($ABTS^+$) radicals. In addition, the activity of C. setidens against diabetes complications was also tested via AGEs formation inhibition assay. The total phenolic contents were determined using a UV-VIS spectrophotometric method. All tested samples showed a dose-dependent radical scavenging and AGEs inhibitory activities. In particular, the n-butanol (BuOH)-soluble portion showed the most potent radical scavenging activities against DPPH and $ABTS^+$ radicals with $IC_{50}$ values of $24.3{\pm}1.7$ and $25.0{\pm}3.3{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Futhermore, the inhibition of AGEs formation by the n-BuOH-soluble portion ($IC_{50}$ value; $46.0{\pm}1.5{\mu}g/mL$) was higher than that those of the soluble portions for the other solvent. The results showed that C. setidens could be considered as an effective source of natural antioxidants and other ingredients.

Oxidative stress is one of the key mechanisms involved in neuronal damage. Neuroprotective effects and underlying mechanisms of action of several wild vegetables, Cirsium setidens (CS), Pleurospermum kamtschaticumin (PK), and Allium victorials (AV), against oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide in SK-N-SH cells were investigated. CS and AV up to $400{\mu}g/mL$ showed no detectable effects on cell viability of human SK-N-SH neuro-blastoma cells compared with control. Incubation of SK-N-SH cells with hydrogen peroxide resulted in significant induction of cell death and reaction oxygen species (ROS) production, whereas treatment of cells with CS and AV significantly reduced cell death and ROS production, respectively. Among the wild vegetables tested, CS and PK showed more effective DPPH radical scavenging activity than AV, whereas PK showed strong cytotoxicity in SK-N-SH cells compared with the control. CS showed much higher inhibitory effects on cell death and ROS generation against oxidative stress than AV. Thus, CS was selected for subsequent experiments. Ethyl acetate (EA), hexane, butanol, aqueous, and chloroform extracts from CS significantly inhibited cell death and ROS generation in SK-N-SH cells induced by oxidative stress. EA extract from CS (CS-EA) showed the highest DPPH radical-scavenging activity, intra-cellular ROS-scavenging activity, and neuroprotective effects. CS-EA attenuated apoptosis signal-regulating p38 activation by inhibiting phosphorylation. The findings suggest that CS-EA protects neuronal cells through antioxidant activity and inhibition of phosphorylation of p38 in brain neural cells.
