The antilipidperoxidative effects of Brazilin and Hematoxylin were investigated at the levels of liver~total homogenates, -microsomal fraction, -mitochondrial fraction and the sera of SD-rats intoxicated with $CCl_4$ and ethanol. Both natural dyes markedly inhibited the lipidperoxidation induced by $CCl_4$ and ethanol. Brazilin and Hematoxylin showed the inhibitory effects on the both enzymatic (NADPH-dependent) and nonenzymatic (Ascorbate-induced) lipidperoxidation pathways. but it is supposed that the antilipidperoxidative powers of them mainly result from the inhibition of the nonenzymatic lipidperoxidation.

Effects of Galgeun(Pueraria radix) extracts on plasma and liver lipid composition, liver function and antioxidative capacity were investigated in rat fed high oxidized fat. Plasma total cholesterol and triglyceride concentration increased in the high oxidized fat groups, however these values showed a tendency to decrease in the Galgeun extracts groups. Plasma HDL-cholesterol concentration revealed a tendency to increase in Galgeun extracts groups. The concentration of liver total cholesterol showed no significantly different in all treatment groups, however liver triglyceride concentration showed a tendency to decrease in galgeun extracts groups. Thiobarbituric acid(TBARS) concentration in plasma and liver showed a tendency to decrease in galgeun extracts groups. The galgeun extracts samples have also decreased the plasma GOT and GPT activities, whereas they have increased the liver glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase activity.

This study was undertaken to evaluate as antioxidant activity against lipid peroxidation. Silymarin and silybin extracted from Silybum marianum were successively purified wit solvent fractionation by silica gel column chromatography. These isoflavonoid inhibited superoxide anion production in the xanthine oxidase system. In the rat liver microsomes, silymarin or silybin rapidly inhibited lipid peroxidation which was initiated enzymatically by reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADPH) or non-enzymatically by ascorbic acid or Fenton's reagent (H2O2+Fe2+). Mitochondrial lipid peroxidation was also inhibited by silymarin and silybin. silymarin and silybin inhibited on terminating radical chain reaction during lipid peroxidation in the enzymatic system of microsomes or in the linoleic acid hydroperoxide induced peroxidation system.

The effect of three polyacetylene compounds. panaxydol. panaxynol and panaxytriol isolated from Korean ginseng on $CCI_4-induced$ lipid peroxidation in vitro and in vivo hepatic microsomal lipid peroxidation were investigated. Lipid peroxide levels both in serum and liver and serum enzyme (GOT. GPT. LDH) activities of normal or $CCI_4-treated$ mice and rats were also determined after administration of polyacetylenes. Hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 content and activities of aniline hydroxylase and aminopyrine demethylase were measured after treatment of polyacetylenes with or without carbon tetrachloride. As results. treatment with polyacetylenes to control mice did not influence the levels of lipid peroxides and serum enzyme activities while panaxynol did. Panaxynol itself inhibited liver lipid peroxidation in normal mice. Polyacetylene compounds protected hepatic lipid peroxidation and lowered serum lipid peroxide levels induced by $CCI_4$ Polyacetylenes prevented leakage of LDH to serum but elevated GOT and GPT levels caused by $CCI_4$ were not changed by polyacetylene pretreatment. $CCI_4$ caused losses in the content of cytochrome P-450 and activities of aniline hydroxylase and aminopyrine demethylase. When polyacetylenes were treated without $CCI_4$ panaxydol and panaxynol induced aniline hydroxylase and all three polyacetylenes induced aminopyrine demethylase. Cytochrome P-450 contents were not affected by polyacetylenes. In vitro hepatic microsomal lipid peroxidation was inhibited by polyacetylenes and $DL-{\alpha}-tocopherol$ in a concentration-dependent manner.

Effects of powdered pine needle (Pinus densiflora seib et Zucc) on serum and liver lipid composition and antioxidative capacity were investigated in rat fed high oxidized fat. Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 161.25$\pm$2.51 g were blocked into four groups according to body weight and raised seven weeks with basal diet (normal group, I), basal diet and 10% oxidized fat (control group, II), basal diet, 10% oxidized fat and 2% powdered pine needle (2% powdered pine needle group, III) and basal diet, 10% oxidized fat and 3% powdered pine needle (3% powdered pine needle group, IV). Food intake, body weight gain and feed efficiency were not significantly different among oxidized fat diet groups. The level of plasma total cholesterol showed a tendency to decrease, whereas the plasma HDL-cholesterol concentration revealed a tendency to increase in pine needle groups. However plasma triglyceride level showed no significant differences in the treatment groups. Intake of the oxidized fat has increased the levels of liver cholesterol and triglyceride. The powdered pine needle showed a tendency to decrease thiobarbituric acid values in plasma and liver. The pine needle samples have also decreased the plasma GOT and GPT activities, whereas they have increased the liver glutathione peroxidase activity.

This study aimed to analyze and compare results from psychological relaxations by using profile of mood state (POMS) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) level as a scale of oxidative damage before and after walking in the forest and on the street. 29 participations (15 men and 14 women) walked in the forest and on the street for 30 minutes of each for two days. The participations filled a questionnaire for POMS and conducted an heart rate variability test, oxidative damage test (MDA as biological marker through a urine test) before and after walking. To compare the psychological states after walking in the two difference places, walking in the forest showed statistically more meaningful results in the section of tension, depression, anger, fatigue, confuse and total mood disturbance (p<0.01) than walking on the street. According to the MDA results, a concentration of MDA showed significant increase after walking on the street (p=0.014). On the contrary to this, a concentration of MDA tended to decrease after walking in the forest (p=0.076). The study showed that the psychological states were more stable and oxidative damages were more decreasing after walking in the forest than walking on the street. In the conclusion, MDA would be biological indicator for assessing the effect of alleviation on the oxidative stress after walking in the forest.

생체막의 주요 구성성분인 인지질의 2번 위치에 결합한 불포화지방산은 각종 전이금속이나 각종 활성산소들의 공격을 쉽게 받아 지질과산화반응이 일어나서 생체에 유독한 화합물을 생성하게 된다. 생체는 이러한 기구의 해독을 위하여 크게 2가지 방어기전을 갖고 있다. 즉 Vitamin- C, $\alpha$-tocopherol, flavonoid, SOD, catalase 등과 같이 생성된 활성산소를 제거시키는 기구와. 활성산소에 의해 생성된 과산화물을 제거시키는 기구로 glutathione peroxidase (GPX)가 알려졌으며 GPX에 의해 독성이 낮은 수산화물까지 환원시키는 기구가 보고되었다. 그러나 인지질의 과산화물 그대로는 GPX의 기질이 쥘수 없으므로, 산화된 지방산을 절단하는 효소에 대한 기구의 해석이 요구되고 있다. 최근 여러질병에 관련되어 있는 인지질 2번위치의 지방산을 분해하는 phospholipase $A_2$ (PLA$_2$)가 과산화지질의 분해에 관여한다는 주장이 제기되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 rat liver microsome에 $CCl_4$투여로 일어나는 과산화반응에 있어서 PLA$_2$의 역할을 규명하기 위하여 본 실험을 행하였다.

본 연구는 streptozotocin 유발 당뇨쥐에서의 MFO계활성 변화 및 이에 지질과산화를 관찰하고자 체중이 140kg 내외의 Sprague-Dawley 종 흰쥐 숫컷을 대조군과 당뇨 유발 시험군으로 나누어 4주간 사육하였다. 당뇨군은 STZ로 당뇨를 유발시켰으며 당뇨 유발 6일후 쥐를 희생기켜 간조직 및 폐조직 microsome 중의 cytochrome $P_{450}$ 및 cytochrome $b_[5}$ 함량과 NADPH-cytochrome $P_{450}$ reductase 활성도를 측정하고 아울러 microsome내의 지질과산화물을 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 실험군간에 식이 섭취량은 차이가 없었으나, 체중 증가량과 식이 효율은 당뇨군이 STZ군에 비해 현저하게 감소하였다. 간장 및 폐조직의 무게는 대조군과 당뇨군간에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 간조직 및 GP조직 중의 cytochrome $P_{450}$ 함량은 대조군에 비해 당뇨군이 150%, 175%씩 증가하였다. 간조직 및 폐조직 중의 cytochrome $b_{5}$은 대조군에 비해 당뇨군이 53%,116%씩 각각 증가하였다. 간조직에서의 NADPH-cytochrome $P_{450}$ reductase 활성은 당뇨군이 대조군에 비해 46% 증가하였으며, 폐조직에서는 75%증가하였다. 지질과산화물가는 당뇨군이 대조군에 비해 간족에서는 약 95% 높았으며 폐조직에서는 73%높았다. 이상의 결과에서 STZ 유발 당뇨쥐에서는 MFO system의 활성도가 대조군에 비해 현저하게 증가되고 지질과산화반응이 같으 srudgid이 촉진되었으며 폐조직에서도 간조직에서와 비슷한 경향이었다. 이러한 것은 당뇨군에서는 MFO system의 활성증가로 free radical 생성이 증가되고 그 결과 지질과산화가 촉진되었다고 볼 수 있다.

Inhibitory effects of quercetin and rutin on lipid peroxidation of microsomes caused by iron(II) were investigated with respect to the scavenging action for oxygen radicals produced during oxidation of iron and the chelating action for iron. Lipid peroxidation by $Fe^{2+}$ alone was markedly inhibited by quercetin or rutin in a dose dependent fashion. Lipid peroxidation by ascorbate or NADPH in the presence of $Fe^{2+}$ was almost completely inhibited by both quercetin and rutin. The peroxidative action of $Fe^{2+}$ was inhibited by SOD and DABCO and slightly inhibited by catalase, DMSO and mannitol. Quercetin and rutin inhibited oxidation of $Fe^{2+}$ which is responsible for DETAPAC and they showed a significant initial chelating effect. Quercetin and rutin effectively inhibited lipid peroxidation by $H_{2}O_{2}$ and decomposed $H_{2}O_{2}$. Both $OH{\cdot}$ production in the presence of $Fe^{2+}$ and $^1O_2$ production by U.V. irradiation were inhibited by quercetin and rutin. Lipid peroxidations by $Cd^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Pb^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ were almost completely inhibited by quercetin. Quercetin and rutin significantly prevented the loss of sulfhydryl groups by $Fe^{2+}$. These results suggest that inhibitory effects of quercetin and rutin on the peroxidative action of $Fe^{2+}$ in the presence or absence of ascorbate and NADPH may be attributable to their scavenging action on reactive oxygen species and chelating action on iron.
