The present study was investigated on in vitro anti-obesity effect of 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol from Cudrania tricuspidata. We isolated various compounds from Cudrania tricuspidata. Among these compounds, anti-obesity effects of 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol was examined by lipase activity assay, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type IV (PDE4) activity assay, and citrate synthase activity assay. 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and Cudrania tricuspidata extracts inhibited the enzymatic activities of lipase, PDE4, and citrate synthase. Lipase is known to mediate the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol in adipose tissue and cholesterol esters in other tissue or cells. Also, PDE4 hydrolyses cAMP, a crucial secondary messenger for in metabolic pathways including glucose and lipid metabolism, lipolysis, and thermogenic function. 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and Cudrania tricuspidata extracts induced the inhibitory effect against each enzymatic activity on several specific substrates as observed by detection at 405 or 412 nm. These findings might be attributable to the inhibition of adipogenesis, and partial prevention of obesity. In conclusion, these results show that 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and Cudrania tricuspidata may be a critical candidate as a natural anti-obesity source.

본 연구에서는 기질 화합물로써 일련의 4-hydroxybenzyl alchol (4-HBA) 유도체들의 치환기($R_1$ 및 $R_2$) 변화에 따른 tyrosinase 활성저해에 관한 3차원적인 구조-활성 상관관계(3D-QSARs) 모델을 유도하고 정량적으로 검토하였다. 그 결과, 입체장(S), 정전기장(E), 소수성장(Hy), 수소결합 받게장(HA) 및 수소결합 주게장(HD)의 조합조건에서 통계적으로 양호한 CoMSIA FF 모델(상관성; $r^2$ = 0.858 및 예측성; $q^2$ = 0.951)을 유도하였다. 등고도 분석결과에 의하면 기질분자의 $R_2$-치환기는 입체적으로 작고 음전하를 띄며, 소수성이면서 수소결합 주게장을 선호하지 않는 치환기가 올수록 tyrosinase 활성저해 작용이 용이하다. 그리고 $R_1$-치환기는 수소결합 주게장을 선호하는 치환기 이어서 $R_1$-치환체가 용이하게 탈 양성자화가 일어나야 tyrosinase 활성저해 작용을 용이하게 할 것이라고 예상되며, 이를 위해서는 $R_1$-치환기가 비 치환체(H)이어야 될 것으로 예상되었다.

$\beta$ -Glucosidase-catalysed synthesis of glucosides with aromatic alcohols and monoterpene alcohols as accepters and cellobiose as a donor in the presence of various commercial $\beta$ -glucosidases were described. $\beta$ -Glucosidases from Aspergillus niger spp,. Trichoderma spp., Penicillium sup. and bitter almond have been shown to catalyze synthesis of $\beta$ -glucosides of benzyl alcohol, 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 2-phenylethyl alcohol, geraniol and citronellol in the presence of cellobiose as sugar donor. Among enzyme preparations tested, each $\beta$ -glucosides prepared from Aspergillus niger were isolated in the pure state by Diaion HP-20 and silica gel column chromatography. The products were identified as $\beta$ -glucosyl products of benzyl alcohol, 2-hydroxyhenzyl alcohol, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol, geraniol and citronellol by spectrometry (UV, IR, $^1$H-NMR, $^{13}$ C-NMR) and enzymatic hydrolysis with $\beta$ - glucosidase. Monoterpene alcohols with a sterically hindered hydroxyl group, such as linalool, $\ell$-menthol and $\alpha$-terpineol were not used as acceptors in transglycosylation reaction.

4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol (4-HB alcohol)은 두통, 경련 행동, 현기증과 같은 신경계 질환에 유익한 효과를 나타내며 천마의 주요 생리활성 성분 중의 하나이다. 대사공학을 통해 4-hydroxybenzoate (4-HBA)를 생산하는 균주로부터 4-HB alcohol을 생산하는 재조합 Corynebacterium glutamicum을 개발하였다. 먼저 4-HBA를 생산하는 APS809로부터 염색체 내 NCgl2922 유전자에 Methanocaldococcus jannaschii 유래의 aroK 유전자를 삽입한 APS963을 개발하였다. 4-HBA의 카로복실 산을 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4-HB aldehyde)로의 환원을 촉매하는 Nocardia iowensis 유래의 car 유전자를 염색체에서 발현하는 균주를 개발하기 위해 NCgl1112 유전자 일부 단편에 car 유전자가 삽입된 GAS177를 개발하였다. 더 높은 농도의 4-HB alcohol을 생산하기 위해 4-HB alcohol을 aldehyde로 산화를 촉매하는데 관여하는 creG 유전자를 염색체상에서 제거된 GAS255를 개발하였다. 최종적으로 chorismate를 4-HBA로 전환하는 효소의 유전자 ubiCpr을 pcaHG에 삽입된 GAS355를 개발하였으며, 80 g/l 포도당을 함유한 삼각플라스크에서 발효하여 생산성을 평가한 결과, 2.3 g/l 4-HB alcohol이 생산되었으며 부산물로 0.32 g/l 4-HBA, 0.3 g/l 4-HB aldehyde가 축적되었다.

In order to product dry goods of Gastrodiae Rhizoma with high quality, tubers were treated with various dry methods such as cutting, drying methods and steaming. In cutting than no cutting, they were shown shorter drying hours and lower drying yield. Drying hours in freeze drying was shorter than those of hot air and far-infrared ray. Total polyphenol content was higher in cutting than no cutting. According to steaming, it was increased in freeze drying but decreased rapidly in the other dry methods. Among all treatments, hot air dry treatment with cutting and no steaming had the highest total polyphenol content. Gastrodin and 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol contents generally were similar or higher in cutting than no cutting. By steaming, gastrodin content in freeze drying was decreased but 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol content was increased. But hot-air and infrared ray dry, they were shown opposite results. Gastrodin and 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol contents showed opposite reaction to each other and were shown various response by dry methods.

본 연구에서는 천마(Gastrodia elata)추출물의 분획과 butanol 분획층의 연속적인 silicagel column chromatography를 통하여 유효성 분인 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol 1. bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) methane 2. gastrodin(4-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyloxybenzyl alcohol) 3을 분리하였다. 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol 1과 gastrodin(4-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyloxybenzyl alcohol) 3은 tyrosinase에 대한 저해작용은 없으나 B16 melanoma 세포의 melanin 새성을 억제한다는 것을 발견하였다. Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane 2 ($IC_{50}$/ = 400 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)은 arbutin ($IC_{50}$/ = 400 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL) 보다 약 $\frac{1}{4}$의 tyrosinase 활성 저해작용을 나타내었지만 B16 melanoma 세포의 melanin 생성 억제는 오히려 arbutin 보다 높게 나왔다. 또한 butanol 분획층 ($IC_{50}$/ = 46$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)의 tyrosinase에 대한 활성 저해 작용이 arbutin ($IC_{50}$/ = 114 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)보다 높은 억제 작용을 나타내었고 B16 melanoma 세포의 melanin 생성 억제도 arbutin 보다 높게 나왔다. 특히 butanol 분획층으로부터 분리된 페놀성 혼합물 ($IC_{50}$/ = 2.37 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)은 arbutin 보다 약 50배 가까운 매운 높은 tyrosinase 활성 억제 작용을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로부터 천마추출물로부터 분리된 유효성분들이 tyrosinase에 대한 저해작용 뿐만 아니라 B16 melanoma 세포의 melanin 생성을 억제하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Monomeric antioxidant 1 was prepared by the reaction of 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol with N-[4-(chlorocarbonyl)phenyl]maleimide in the presence of imidazole. Monomeric antioxidant 2, bearing carbamate group, was synthesized from the reaction of 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and azidomaleimide. Antioxidant 3 was prepared by the reaction of N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)maleimide and 3-(3,5-ditert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionic chloride in the presence of triethylamine. These reactive antioxidants were grafted onto polypropylene (PP) by melt-processing with free radical initiators in a mini-max moulder. From the infrared spectra of the grafted PP, it was found that the monomeric antioxidants were grafted onto PP. IR spectroscopic methods were used for the quantitative determination of the extent of grafting of monomeric antioxidant. To optimize the reaction conditions, the influences of the concentration of DCP, monomeric antioxidant, reaction time and temperature on the extent of grafting were studied.

Gastrodia elata Blume (Chunma) belongs to Orchidaceae, which is a perennial parasitic herbaceous plant and grows in the woods of the central provinces of China, Korea and Japan. Recently, the constituents of the tubers of this plant have been investigated by researchers who have revealed the presence of phenolic compounds including gastrodin as a major constituent, together with 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, parishin, 4,4-dihydroxybenzyl sulfoxide, vanillin, vanillyl alcohol, beta-sitosterol, organic acids and polysaccharides, etc. In this study, we used ultrasonicator and two kinds of enzymes for enhancement of extraction yield. We also used electronic nose for the aroma pattern analysis of Chunma extracts. The concentrations of glucose and functional constituents (gastrodin, vanillin, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol) were measured by biochemistry analyzer and HPLC, respectively. Therefore, we showed that the yield of extraction was increased and discomfortable odor was reduced.

전통적인 포제 방법을 이용하여 천마의 불쾌취 및 쓴맛, 비린맛 등을 제거하고, 천마의 주된 유효성분인 gastrodin과 p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol을 증가시키기 위한 연구를 시도하였다. 포제법의 일환으로 생천마와 건천마를 쌀뜨물과 젖산발효액에 침지하였으며 유의적인 결과를 얻었다. 이러한 결과가 침지액 중의 유기산 등에 의한 효과에 기인한 것으로 판단되어 대표적 유기산 10종을 선별하여 0.5%로 제조 한 후, 24시간동안 침지시켰다. 그 결과 젖산에 침지된 천마에서 가장 좋은 관능평가를 얻을 수 있었으며, 농도별로 젖산액 처리하였을 경우 1.0%에서 가장 좋은 관능평가를 얻었다. 또한 1.0% 젖산에 침지한 후 4시간 증자한 후 천마의 유효성분인 gastrodin, p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol의 함량이 약 20%가 증가되었으며, 기타 유효성분의 대부분 유의적 변화를 나타내지 않았다. 또한 젖산 침지에 따른 천마의 휘발성 향기성분을 측정한 결과 천마 불쾌취의 주성분이라고 판단되는 4-methylphenol과 butanal 등 총 11종을 분리하였다. 이러한 결과로 부터 천마의 관능 및 유효성분의 향상을 위한 전처리 방법으로 1.0% 젖산액에 생천마를 24시간 침지한 후 $98^{\circ}C$에서 4시간 증자 후 건조하는 방법이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
