고추장은 체중감소 효과를 보였는데 흰쥐를 이용한 식이섭취 실험에서 발효 숙성된 전통고추장이나 공장식 상품고추장은 고지방 식이로 인한 체중 증가를 감소시켜 정상에 가까운 체중을 유지하도록 하였다. 반면에 발효되지 않은 고추장의 경우 고춧가루군과 거의 비슷한 감소효과를 나타내었으며 발효된 전통고추장이나 공장식 상품고추장에 비해서 체중감소효과가 그리 크지 않았다. 발효된 전통고추장은 높은 체중 감소효과와 더불어 부고환 지방 및 신장 주위 지방조직의 총지방, TG, 콜레스테롤의 함량도 낮추는 효과를 나타내었으나 발효되지 않은 고추장식이군은 감소효과가 크지 않아 발효의 유무가 체중감소, 지방조직감소에 큰 변수임을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 천연소재 혼합물이 혈중 지질 함량 및 부고환 지방세포의 크기에 미치는 영향을 측정하였다. 그 결과 혈액 중 총 콜레스테롤과 LDL 콜레스테롤은 천연소재 섭취에 의한 유의적인 감소 효과가 나타나지 않았지만, 중성지방은 정상식이군에서 감소하였고 HDL 콜레스테롤은 정 상식이군에서 증가하였다. 부고환 지방조직은 고지방식이 섭취에 의해 지방세포 크기가 유의적으로 증가되었으나 천연소재 섭취로 인하여 유의적으로 감소하였다. 이는 천연소재섭취에 의해 체지방 축적이 억제되어 지방세포의 hypertrophy를 억제했기 때문으로 사료된다.

This study investigated the effects of carnitine and/or ${\gamma}$ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) supplementation on lipid profiles and some immune related nutrient in mice. Balb/c male mice were orally treated with either an AIN-76 diet (Con), a control diet plus carnitine (CS, 0.5 g/kg bw), a control diet plus GABA (GS, 0.5 g/kg bw) or a control diet plus carnitine plus GABA (CGS, 0.25 g/kg bw, respectively) for 6 weeks. There were no significant differences in feed consumption, energy intake, body weight gain or feed efficiency ratio among the groups during the experimental period. However, abdominal fat deposits were smaller in CS, GS and CGS groups compared with the Con group. Serum and liver triglycerides also were lower in CS, GS and CGS and serum total cholesterol was significantly lower in the CGS group compared with the Con group. Serum LDL cholesterol was lower in the CGS group and liver HDL cholesterol was significantly higher in the CS group compared with Con group. In serum, stearic acid and selecholeic acid were lower, but arachidic acid was higher in the CS group. Liver stearic acid was higher but oleic acid lower in CGS group compared with Con group. In carnitine supplemented groups, serum and liver nonesterified carnitine (NEC), acidsoluble acylcarnitine (ASAC), total carnitine (TCNE) concentrations were higher in only the CS group, not CGS group. Serum vitamin A and E concentrations were not different among the groups. These results may suggest that carnitine and/or GABA supplementation improves lipid profiles in mice, but did not affect the immune-related nutrients that we measured under the experimental conditions of this study.

녹각이 동양의학에서 보혈강장제라는 사실에 근거하여 생체내 물질대사에 중요한 역할을 하는 간장의 장해시 효소활성 변동에 미치는 녹각의 효능을 구명할 목적의 일환으로 간독성 물질인 benzo(a)pyrene으로 간장해를 유도한 후 각각의 녹각추출물을 급여함으로써 간해독 과정에 관여하는 효소의 활성을 생화학적 측면에서 비교하였다. 각각의 녹각추출물 급여로 인한 체중증가량, 식이섭취량 및 식이효율은 녹각추출물 군간의 유의성은 나타나지 않았으나, Control군에 비하여 유의적인 증가를 보였고 B(a)P 투여군에서도 Cont-B군에 비하여 녹각추출물 급여군에서 유의적인 증가를 나타내었다. 체중 100g당 장기무게는 간장의 경우 benzo (a)pyrene 투여로 증가하는 경향을 보였으나 비장과 신장 및 심장에는 별다른 차이가 없었다. 녹각추출물 급여로 4주간 사육한 흰쥐에서 간해독계 효소중 cytochrome P-450의 함량은 Control 군에 비하여 ben-zo(a)pyrene 투여로 유의적인 감소를 보였으며, 녹각추출물과 benzo(a)pyrene을 병행 투여한 실험군 중 Water-B군이 정상군에 가깝게 증가되었다. 간조직 중의 glutathione함량은 Water군과 Neutral군에서 증가를 보였으나 benzo(a)pyrene 투여로 감소하였다. 또한 간조직 중의 glutathione peroxidase 활성은 녹각추출물 급여에 따른 영향은 없었으며, benzo(a)pyrene 투여로 감소된 활성이 water-B군에서 정상군에 가까운 증가를 나타내었다. 간조직 중의 과산화지질 함량은 Water-B군에서 그 감소 정도가 가장 현저하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 녹각추출물 중의 water-ext.와 neutral-ext.에 함유되어 있는 유효성분이 간장의 해독기구 효소활성을 유도하고, benzo(a)pyrene의 대사를 촉진시키므로 간손상을 억제할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

괴각 추출물을 농축하여 동결 건조해서 실험동물인 Sprague-dawley rats의 해당 식이에 0.5% 수준으로 첨가하여 4주간 사육하면서 체중은 3일 간격으로 섭취는 2일 간격으로 일정한 시각(오전 9시)에 측정하였으며, 활성산소 및 항산화 활성 측정은 2주 간격으로 측정하였다. 또한 실험이 종료된 후 실험동물을 단두 도살하여 혈청 중 total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose, phospholipid를 측정하여 지질함량에 미치는 영향을 측정한 결과 아래와 같은 결론을 얻었다. 괴각 추출물을 Sprague dawley rats에 급여 후 식이섭취량, 식이효율 및 체중증가량을 측정한 결과 각 군 간에 차이를 보이지 않았으며 2주 간격으로 항산화 활성 및 활성산소를 측정한 결과 2주째부터 항산화에서 차이를 보였으며 활성산소 생성량은 대조군과 비교했을 때 큰 차이가 없었다. 4주 후 괴각 추출물 급여군의 항산화 값은 대조군에 비해 17.04%로 높게 나타났다. 실험식이 종료 후 실험동물에서 적출한 장기의 무게를 측정한 결과 심장, 신장, 장, 간 모두 커다란 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한, 혈청중의 total cholesterol 함량 측정 결과 괴각 추출물 급여군이 대조군에 비해 낮은 함량을 나타내었고, HDL-cholesterol 함량에서는 대조군에 비해 높은 함량을 보였다. Triglyceride 함량은 거의 차이가 없었으며 glucose 함량은 대조군에 비해 낮았고, phospholipid 함량은 높았으나 차이가 없었다. 이상에서와 같이 괴각 추출물을 이용한 동물실험에서 항산화 활성 및 혈청의 지질대사에 개선 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 향후 이들 추출물을 항산화활성 및 지질대사 개선에 기능성을 갖는 식품소재로의 이용 가능성이 기대되며 향후에 추출물 투여농도의 증가나 투여기간의 연장에 따른 추가적인 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

The current study investigated the effect of Korean safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) seed powder and its water and ethanol extracts on bone metabolism during recovery from rib-fracture induced by surgical operation in rats. 10-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing about 320 g were divided into 9 groups after arrival: 10d control (AIN 76 semi-purified diet), 10d safflower seed powder (10d SS-powder), 10d safflower seed ethanol extract (10d SS-EtOH), 10d safflower seed water extract (10d SS-$H_2O$), 20d control (AIN-76 semi-purified diet), 20d safflower heed powder (20d SS-powder), 20d safflower seed ethanol extract (20d SS-EtOH), 20d safflower seed water extract (20d SS-$H_2O$), and 20d sham-operation (20d sham), The dietary level for all the supplements was 5% based on the raw material weight. The rats were fed the experimental diets for 10 days before the rib fracture operation and for a further 10 or 20 days after the operation. A number 9 rib was fractured surgically and a sham-operation also performed. The rats were then sacrificed on the l0th or 20th day after the operation. The body weight initially decreased after the operation in all the rib-fractured groups, then gradually recovered. The concentrations of plasma osteocalcin were higher in the control group than in all the safflower-supplemented groups 10 and 20 days after the rib-fracture (p < 0.05). The bone-specific ALP (alkaline phosphatase) activity was significantly higher in the SS-EtOH group than in the other groups 20 days after the rib-fracture (p < 0.05). The level of urinary DPD (deoxypridinoline) was significantly higher in the SS-EtOH and SS-$H_2O$ groups than in the other groups 10 days after the rib-fracture. When comparing the PTH (parathyroid hormone) and calcitonin levels, the SS-$H_2O$ group exhibited the highest PTH level among the groups 10 and 20 days after the rib-fracture. Thus, it was concluded that the bone turnover during the fracture-healing period was more rapid in the rats supplemented with safflower seed powder or its fractions than in the control rats. Furthermore, the SS-$H_2O$ fraction was identified as the most effective in stimulating bone remodeling, as bone resorption and bone formation were both significantly increased during fracture healing when compared to the control group.

This study was performed to investigate the growth rate, hematological and serological changes of the rats when they were fed with the high(at diets supplemented with or without chitosan for five weeks. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley male rats($235.7{\pm}10.7g$ of body weight) were randomly divided into three groups control group(C) and two treatment groups. Rats in the control group were fed with the high-fat diet containing 10% lard, 1% cholesterol and 0.5% sodium cholate(w/w) which was modified from the formula of the American Institute of Nutrition-76(AIN-76) diet. Rats in treatment groups were red with above diet supplemented with 2.5% of chitosan(CS-2.5) or 5.0% chitosan(CS-5) on the weight to weight basis, respectively. The supplementation of chitosan did not induce any significant difference on the final body weight, gain of body weight and amount of feed intake of rats in between control and treatment groups but the feed efficiency of rats in CS-5 was lower than that of rats in C(p<0.05). The hemoglobin concentrations and hematocrit values showed no significant differences among groups. In addition the values of glucose concentration, total protein, albumin, globulin and albumin/globulin(A/G) ratio showed no significant differences among groups. The values of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C) in sera of rats in CS-5 were lower than those in both C and CS-2.5(p<0.01). The values of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) in sera of rats in CS-5 were higher than in both in C and CS-2.5(p<0.05). The values of atherogenic index(AI) of rats in CS-5 were the lowest among groups(p<0.01). AI of CS-2.5 were lower than that or C(p<0.05). The values of triglyceride in sera of rats showed no significant differences among groups. The values of AST in sera of rats in CS-2.5 were lower than those in both C and CS-5(p<0.05). However ALT values showed no significant differences among groups. Therefore the supplementation of chitosan to high fat diet reduced effectively the serum lipid levels such as total cholesterol, LDL-C and triglycerides which were regarded as to cause the cardiovascular diseases moreover it elevated effectively HDL-C value which was regarded protect cardiovascular diseases.

This study was performed to investigate the changes of the serological lipid-related parameters of the rats when they were fed with the high fat diets supplemented with or without rutin for five weeks. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley male rats ($272.2{\pm}7.2 g$ of body weight) were randomly divided into three groups: control (C) group and two treatment groups. Rats in the C group were fed with the high-fat diet containing 20% lard, 1% cholesterol and 0.5% sodium cholate (w/w) which was modified from the formula of the American Institute of Nutrition-76 (AIN-76) diet. Rats in treatment groups were fed with above diet supplemented with 0.75% rutin (R-0.75) or 1.5% rutin (R-1.5) on the weight to weight basis, respectively. The supplementation of rutin did not induce any significant difference on the final body weight, gain of body weight, the amount of feed intake and the feed efficiency of rats in both control and treatment groups. In addition the values of glucose concentration, total protein, albumin, globulin and albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio showed no significant differences among groups. The values of total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) in sera of rats in both R-0.75 and R-1.5 groups were lower than those in C group but the significances were showed in only between R-0.75 and C group (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively). The values of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) in sera of rats in both R-0.75 and R-1.5 groups were higher than those in C group but the significances were showed in only between R-1.5 and C group (p < 0.01). The values of atherogenic index(AI) of rats in both R-0.75 and R-1.5 groups were the lower than those in C group (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). The values of triglyceride in sera of rats showed no significant differences among groups. The values of AST and ALT in sera of rats showed no significant differences among groups. Therefore the supplementation of rutin to high fat diet in rats reduced effectively the serum lipid levels such as TC and LDL-C which were regarded as to cause the cardiovascular diseases, and moreover it elevated effectively HDL-C value which was regarded to protect cardiovascular diseases.

This study was performed to investigate the changes of the serological lipid-related parameters of the rats when they were fed with the high fat diets supplemented with or without naringin for five weeks. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley male rats($272.2{\pm}7.2$ g of body weight) were randomly divided into three groups(eight rats per each group) : control(C) group and two treatment groups. Rats in the C group were fed with the high-fat diet containing 15% lard, 1% cholesterol and 0.5% sodium cholate(w/w) which was modified from the formula of the American Institute of Nutrition-76(AIN-76) diet. Rats in treatment groups were fed with above diet supplemented with 0.1% naringin(N-0.1) or 0.2% naringin(N-0.2) on the weight to weight basis, respectively. The supplementation of naringin did not induce any significant difference on the final body weight, gain of body weight, the amount of feed intake and the feed efficiency of rats in between control and treatment groups. In addition the levels of glucose, total protein, albumin, globulin and albumin/globulin(A/G) ratio in sera of rats showed no significant differences between control and treatment groups. The levels of total cholesterol(TC) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C)in sera of rats in both N-0.1 and N-0.2 groups were significantly lower than in C group(p<0.05). The levels of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C) were significantly higher in both N-0.1 and N-0.2 groups than in C group(p<0.05). The values of atherogenic index(AI) were significantly lower in both N-0.1 and N-0.2 groups than in C group(p<0.05). The levels of triglyceride in sera of rats showed no significant differences between control and treatment groups. The values of AST and ALT were significantly lower in both N-0.1 and N-0.2 groups than in C group(p<0.05). Therefore the supplementation of naringin to high fat diet in rats reduced effectively the serum lipid levels such as TC and LDL-C and AI which were regarded as to cause the cardiovascular diseases, and moreover it elevated the HDL-C value effectively which was regarded to protect cardiovascular diseases.
