Hepatic diseases are divided into two types: alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Non-alcoholic liver injury finally induces fatty liver and damages liver function. Many studies have demonstrated that Ecklonia stolonifera has antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and hepatoprotective activities. We conducted a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to examine the efficacy of E. stolonifera extracts (ESE) on biochemical markers of hepatic function. Sixty-five subjects with mild or moderate liver injuries were randomly allocated to receive either 420 mg/d of ESE or a placebo for 12 weeks. Fifty-five participants completed the trial. No significant adverse events were observed among the subjects during the study. The primary end points were changes in plasma levels of aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), and γ-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT). The secondary end points were changes in lipid profile levels, including total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL). Compared with the baseline, AST and ALT levels decreased significantly in the ESE group compared to those in the placebo group (P<0.001). In addition, γ-GT levels in the ESE group were significantly lower than those in the placebo group (P=0.016). There were no differences in the TC, TG, HDL, and LDL levels between groups. In conclusion, ESE consumption for 12 weeks improved liver parameters in subjects with liver injury. Regular consumption of ESE could maintain liver health in individuals at risk of hepatic damage.

식품분야는 기술의 발전속도가 비교적 빠르지 않으나 적용범위가 광범위하므로 정량적인 분석 방법을 도입하여 연구트렌드를 분석함으로써 연구테마 및 아이템을 발굴하는데 시사점을 제공 할 수 있다. 미국 NIH에서는 인체 미생물체의 메타지노믹스 연구를 시작하는 등 선진국을 중심으로 제2의 휴먼지놈프로젝트라고 불리는 장내미생물 균총에 대한 연구결과가 속속 제시되고 있다. 이런 측면에서 human microbiome 연구동향을 분석하여 식품 관련연구에 활용하기 위해 특허와 논문의 서지정보를 활용하여 정량적인 분석을 시도하였다. 분석대상은 1992년 이후로 2011년 말까지 전세계에 출원된 human microbiome 관련 특허와 논문을 대상으로 하였고, 분석프로그램은 Thomson Reuters에서 제공하는 Thomson Innovation을 사용하였다.
