본 연구는 장기능 개선 및 변비 질환의 예방 및 치료에 효과적인 천연 식품인 무(Raphanuse sativa var. nigra L.)로부터 추출, 정제된 조성물, 보다 상세하게는 무의 물 추출물에서 정제 분획된 분자량 3-10 kDa가 주성분으로 장기능 및 변비 질환의 개선 효과를 가지는 조성물에 관한 것이다. 무의 물 추출물을 Balb/c mice를 이용한 활성탄 식이의 장 이동 효과와 SD rats를 이용한 loperamide-induced constipation method에 의한 항변비 효과를 검색하였다. 또한 항변비 효과 검색을 종료한 후, 희생한 횐쥐의 대장관 내 점액질 분비 효과를 조사하였다. 특히, 대장에 많이 존재하는 MUC2 분비 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 무의 물 추출물은 식수만 투여한 대조군에 비해 용량에 비례해서 활성탄 식이의 장 이동 효과가 현저하게 증가되었고, 다양한 용매 분획에서는 무의 물 분획이 가장 큰 장 이동 효과를 나타내어, 물 분획이 장 이동을 촉진시키는 활성 물질이 가장 많이 함유된 분획으로 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 물 분획을 분자량 크기로 3 kDa 이하, 3-10 kDa, 10-300 kDa, 300 kDa 이상의 4가지 세 분획으로 나누어 활성탄 식이의 장이동 효과를 조사한 결과, 이들 세 분획중에서 3-10 kDa의 분자량을 가진 분획이 주요 구성 물질로 장 이동 촉진 효과를 보였다. Loperamide를 이용해 3-10 kDa의 변비해소 작용을 알아 본 결과에서도 무 물세분획(3-10 kDa) 투여로 변비 유발기간 내내 변량이 증가되었으며, 변비 유발군에 비해, 사료 섭취량의 증가는 변비 유발 물질인 loperamide를 계속 섭취함에도 불구하고 변비가 해소되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 무 물세분획(3-10 kDa)의 대장관내 점액질의 분비에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과에서도, 대장관 내 변의 개수가 정상군과 거의 같은 수준의 변 개수가 관찰되어 배변촉진 효과가 확인 되었고, 항체(Biogenex AM358)를 사용하여 면역조직 화학법으로 MUC2 관찰시, 변비 유발군에서는 MUC2로 염색된 세포가 현저하계 감소되나, 무 물세분획(3-l0 kDa) 투여시 뚜렷하게 MUC2 염색이 증가되었다.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of egg shell membrane hydrolysates (ESMH) on skin whitening, wound healing, and UV-protection. ESMH was divided into three groups by molecular weight (Fraction I: above 10 kDa of ESMH, Fraction II: 3 kDa-10 kDa of ESMH, Fraction III: below 3 kDa of ESMH). As a result, all of ESMHs showed over 90% of protein contents. The wound healing experiment using HaCaT cells showed that the fraction I was slightly superior to other fractions depending on the concentration though it was not significantly different. In the experiments of inhibition of tyrosinase and L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) oxidation to verify the L-DOPA whitening effect, the whole ESMH (before fractioning) showed a similar amount of inhibition effect with arbutin (control). In the inhibition of melanin formation in B16-F1 melanoma cells, the fraction I showed a high inhibitory effect. In the experiment for protecting the skin from ultraviolet rays using HaCaT cells, all the fractions showed a higher rate of cell viability than the control. In conclusion, this study confirmed that the cosmetic effects of ESMHs such as skin whitening, wound healing, and UV-protection, which were divided depending on the molecule weight. We could confirm that the possibility of ESMHs as a material for functional cosmetics.

To investigate the effect of Holstein colostrum peptide fraction on proliferation of immune cell, polypeptide fractions were separated from acid whey into 3 fractions depending on molecular weight by ultrafiltration: Fraction I, which contains the polypeptide larger than 10,000 Da, Fraction n, which contains the polypeptide ranging from 1,000 Da to 10,000 Da and Fraction III, which contains the polypeptide smaller than 1,000 Da. EL-4 cell (murine T lymphoma cell) was used to evaluate immune enhancing effect of each fraction from Holstein colostrum. Fraction n showed the highest proliferative effect of the colostrum whey fractions on EL-4 cell at 1mg/mL compared with whole whey and other fractions and this proliferative activity was shown in dose dependent manner. Fraction n showed the highest proliferative effect on PMA (Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) stimulated EL-4 cell. Heated Fraction n showed similar effect to native one on proliferation of both EL-4 cell and PMA stimulated EL-4 cell.

Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron-binding glycoprotein that is present in colostrum, milk, and other body secretions. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of lactoferrin hydrolysates (LHs) on the production of immunomodulatory factors, including inflammatory related cytokines. The nuclear factor (NF)-κB reporter assay using human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK-293) revealed that NF-κB activity was significantly decreased by 1, 50, and 100 ㎍/mL of LH and the fractions above and below the 10 kDa LH. The mRNA expression of interferon (IFN)-γ in rat basophilic leukemia mast cells (RBL-2H3) treated with the fraction above the 10 kDa LH decreased in a dose-dependent manner, but the cells treated with LH and the fraction below the 10 kDa LH showed an increased expression of IFN-γ in a dose-dependent manner. The level of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression decreased dose-dependently in RBL-2H3 cells treated with LH and the fraction above the 10 kDa LH, but the cells treated with the fraction below the 10 kDa LH showed an increased COX-2 expression in a dose-dependent manner. The mRNA expression of interleukin (IL)-4) was dose-dependently decreased by the fraction below the 10 kDa LH in human mast cells (HMC-1). The mRNA expressions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6 were significantly dose-dependently decreased by the fractions above and below the 10 kDa LH, but was dose-dependently increased by LH. The production of IL-4 was a little increased by the fraction above the 10 kDa LH compared to the positive control, but was decreased with LH and the fraction below the 10 kDa LH in HMC-1 cells. It was concluded that LF hydrolysates had an immunomodulating effect on anti-, pro-inflammatory and anti-allergic reactions.

효소에 의한 단백질 분해로 우리 밀의 저 알레르겐화를 시도하기 위한 기초 연구로서 금강밀에서 gluten fraction을 추출하여 동물 실험을 통하여 경구 섭취된 gluten에 대한 항체 생성을 유도하였다. Gluten fraction은 UTH buffer로 추출하여 10-50kDa 사이의 분자량에서 여러 밴드가 확인된 분획을 얻었으며 약 25 kDa, 34 kDa 그리고 45 kDa 부근의 밴드가 주요하게 나타났다. 그리고, 경구 투여로 유도된 gluten에 대한 항체는 ELISA와 western blot의 항원-항체 반응을 실시하여 anti-gluten lgG, IgE를 확인하였다. 또한 경구 투여의 투여 시간 경과에 따라 항체가는 상승하였다. 추출된 gluten fraction은 bromelain, papain, ficin 그리고 b.p. protease 각 효소의 최적 pH와 온도에서 가수 분해하여 gluten fraction의 알레르겐 저감화를 시도하였다. 효소 분해 후 gluten fraction의 저분자화 정도는 anti-gluten 하체에 대한 ELISA를 실시하여 검토하였다. 그 결과 bromelain, papain, ficin의 경우보다 b.p. protease을 처리한 경우가 ELISA value를 크게 저하시켰다. 이것은 gluten fraction이 b.p protease 효소 가수분해에 의해 생성된 항체가 인식하는 amino acid 서열 (epitope)이 분해되었음을 나타낸 것이다. 마지막으로 b.p. protease의 분해능력을 1mg, 2mg, 3mg/10mL로 첨가량을 달리하여 검토한 결과 첨가량에 따른 변화는 거의 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 금강밀의 gluten fraction 10mL에 b.p protease 1mg으로 4시간 처리하여 단백질을 분해하여 우리밀의 항원성 저하 가능성이 탐색되었다.

To investigate the effect of bovine colostral whey fractions on in vitro proliferation of mouse splenocytes, polypeptide fractions were separated from acid whey into 3 fractions depending on molecular weight by ultrafiltration: Fraction I, which contains the polypeptide larger than 10,000 Da, Fraction n, which contains the polypeptide ranging from 1,000 Da to 10,000 Da and Fraction III, which contains the polypeptide smaller than 1,000 Da. Fraction II showed the highest proliferative effect of mouse splenocytes among the colostral whey fractions and this proliferative activity increased in dose dependent manner. Unheated Fraction II and Fraction III showed significantly (p<0.01) higher proliferative effects than others but heated Fraction II showed the highest enhancing effect of mouse splenocyte among heated whey fractions (p<0.01). The supplementation of Fraction II and Fraction m showed greater proliferative effect of mouse splenocytes stimulated by concanavalin A (Con A) than that of whole whey or Fraction L Proliferative effect of mouse splenocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutinin (PHA) was the highest when Fraction II was supplemented Proliferative effect of the colostral whey fractions on mouse splenocytes by stimulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was markedly enhanced by supplementation of Fraction II and Fraction m compared with whole whey and Fraction L It was estimated that colostral whey fraction containing IGF-I positively affected proliferation of mouse splenocyte.

Enzymatic hydrolysate of porphyran from Porphyra yezoensis was prepared by treatment with ${\beta}$-agarase. The hydrolysate was fractioned into molecular sizes of <3, 3-30, and 30-300 kDa using an ultrafiltration membrane. The membrane fractions were further separated into neutral and anionic fractions using Dowex $1{\times}8$ ion exchange chromatography. After hydrolysis of porphyran with ${\beta}$-agarase, 23.2% of the starting porphyran was recovered as a neutral fraction of low-molecular weight (<3 kDa), and 28.9% remained as an enzyme-resistant anionic fraction of high molecular weight (>300 kDa). Desulfation of porphyran and $^{13}C$-NMR analysis of the anionic fraction of low molecular weight (<3 kDa) showed that the anionic fraction has a backbone consisting of 3-linked ${\beta}$-D-galactose units alternating with either 4-linked a-L-galactose 6-sulfate or 3, 6-anhydro-a-L-galactose units. These results indicate that porphryan is a copolymer of two moieties, about 25% of which are composed of neoagarose moieties and 75% as anionic moieties.

In the present study, we investigated to the antioxidant and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of the northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) by-products (PBB) hydrolysates prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis. The antioxidant and ACE inhibitory activities of five enzymatic hydrolysates (alcalase, protamex, flavourzyme, papain, and trypsin) of PBB were evaluated by the 2, 2'-azino-bis [3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid] ($ABTS^+$) radical scavenging and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities, reducing power and Li's method for ACE inhibitory activity. Of these PBB hydrolysates, the protamex hydrolysate exhibited the most potent ACE inhibitory activity with $IC_{50}$ value of $0.08{\pm}0.00mg/mL$. The PBB protamex hydrolysate was fractionated by two ultrafiltration membranes with 3 and 10 kDa (below 3 kDa, between 3 and 10 kDa, and above 10 kDa). These three fractions were evaluated for the total amino acids composition, antioxidant, and ACE inhibitory activities. Among these fractions, the < 3 kDa and 3-10 kDa fractions showed more potent $ABTS^+$ radical scavenging activity than that of > 10 kDa fraction, while the > 10 kDa fraction exhibited the significant reducing power than others. In addition, 3-10 kDa and > 10 kDa fractions showed the significant ACE inhibitory activity. These results suggested that the high molecular weight enzymatic hydrolysate derived from PBB could be used for control oxidative stress and prevent hypertension.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: In this study, potential anti-inflammatory effect of enzymatic hydrolysates from Styela clava flesh tissue was assessed via nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccahride (LPS) induced RAW 264.7 macrophages and in vivo zebrafish model. MATERIALS/METHODS: We investigated the ability of enzymatic hydrolysates from Styela clava flesh tissue to inhibit LPS-induced expression of pro-inflammatory mediators in RAW 264.7 macrophages, and the molecular mechanism through which this inhibition occurred. In addition, we evaluated anti-inflammatory effect of enzymatic hydrolysates against a LPS-exposed in in vivo zebrafish model. RESULTS: Among the enzymatic hydrolysates, Protamex-proteolytic hydrolysate exhibited the highest NO inhibitory effect and was fractionated into three ranges of molecular weight by using ultrafiltration (UF) membranes (MWCO 5 kDa and 10 kDa). The above 10 kDa fraction down-regulated LPS-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), thereby reducing production of NO and prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 macrophages. The above 10 kDa fraction suppressed LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin $(IL)-1{\beta}$, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$. In addition, the above 10 kDa fraction inhibited LPS-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38. Furthermore, NO production in live zebrafish induced by LPS was reduced by addition of the above 10 kDa fraction from S. clava enzymatic hydrolysate. CONCLUSION: The results of this study suggested that hydrolysates derived from S. clava flesh tissue would be new anti-inflammation materials in functional resources.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of eggshell membrane hydrolysates (ESMH) on the anti-inflammatory, anti-wrinkle, anti-microbial activity, and moisture-protection for cosmetic use. Whole ESMH (before fractionation), and fraction I (>10 kDa), fraction II (3-10 kDa), and fraction III (<3 kDa) of the hydrolysates were assessed in this experiment. As lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and IFN-${\gamma}$ caused the inflammation on Raw264.7 cell, whole ESMH and fraction I showed to be effective in inhibiting the induction of cell inflammation depending on the concentration, and also showed outstanding effect to suppress the skin inflammation. Fraction I inhibited collagenase and elastase activities to a greater extent than the other fractions, while all fractions had antibiotic effects at concentrations of 10 mg/disc and 20 mg/disc. In addition, it showed the moisture protection effects of skin on the holding amount and losing amount of moisture in upper-inner arm of the human body with a relatively low loss rate in skin, which confirmed that the hydrolyzed fractions of ESM helps to form the superior protective layer of moisture. It was concluded that ESMH fractions with different molecular weights, especially the 10 kDa fraction, have anti-lipopolysaccharide, anti-IFN-${\gamma}$-induced inflammation, anti-collagenase and elastase activities, and thus can be used as a cosmetic agent to protect skin.
