In the present studγ, we investigated the component analγsis, measurements of antioxidant activities and anti-microbial activities from fruit of Acanthopanax senticosus HARMS in order to detect the biological activities and develop novel functional resources. Different solvents extraction ratios were different according to different solvent extraction of Acanthopanax senticosus HARMS. Composition analysis we highly composed as 72.33%. The minerals of different organs were highly composed of potasium as 5951.3 mg/100g. The monosaccharldes are composed of the arabinose, xylose, mannose, galactose, glucose. Antioxidamt activity was measured in water extracts: $57.3\;{mu}/ml$, ethanol extracts $630.1\;{\mu}g/ml$, methanol extracts: $248.5\;{\mu}g/ml$, 71% ethanol extracts: $198.97\;{\mu}g/ml$, 75% methanol exracts: $96.77\;{\mu}g/ml$, chloroform extracts. $1194.83\;{\mu}g/ml$ at $IC_{50}$ value. The antimicrobial activities were observed in extracts from Acanthopanax senticosus HARMS against am negative bacteria and gram positive bacteria.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Acanthopanax senticosus extracts(ASE) on alcohol administered mice. The administration of Acanthopanax senticosus extracts(60 mg/kg) had beneficial actions toward alcohol degradation in acute alcohol treated mice. In the acute alcohol degradation experiment, serum alcohol concentration were lower 3 and 6 hours after taking ethanol(5 g/kg) in ASE treated mice. The oral administration of ASE showed decreased gastric mucous membrane damage produced in ethanol treated mice. In addition, intraperitoneal(i.p.) administration of ASE showed antiinflammatory effects in inhibition tests of vascular permeability produced by acetic acid. ASE also reduced concentrations of nitric oxide(NO), tumor necrosis alpha(TNF)-${\alpha}$ and interleukin(IL)-6 in macrophages that were activated by LPS. These results demonstrate that Acanthopanax senticosus extracts possesses the potential to stimulate alcohol degradation and inhibit inflammatory effects in mice.

Antidiabetic effects of an aqueous and solvent extract prepared from the root, stem and fruit parts of Acanthopanax senticosus, were investigated in experimental Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats model. The n-butanol and water extracts of A. senticosus were orally administrated once a day for 6 days. The n-butanol extracts of fruit (FB) showed highest efficiency than other groups (water extracts of stem, root and fruit; butanol extracts of stem, root) on serum glucose values in the STZ-induced diabetic rats. We have studied gene expression of glucose transporter genes in C2C12 skeletal muscle cell line during differentiation treated by the n-butanol and water extracts of A. senticosus, SW, RW, FW, SB, RB and FB. The GLUT4 gene was high expressed by FB treatment. These findings suggest that FB of A. senticosus have GLUT4 gene expression activity for glucose homeostasis and may have beneficial effects on blood glucose lowering in the diabetic patients.

Antioxidant properties of the extracts of Acanthopanax senticosus were investigated. The dried roots, stems or leaves were extracted with hot water or ethanol each. The ethanol extracts exhibited higher potency than aqueous extracts in scavenging free radicals and in inhibiting microsomal lipid peroxidation: the aqueous extracts of stems showed higher anti-oxidant effects than the root extracts. Copper-mediated LDL oxidation was also protected by the ethanol exlracts: antioxidant effects of the extracts tested were stronger than ascorbic acid, but not butylated hydroxytoluene. The activity of angiotensin converting enzyme was effectively suppressed by the aqueous extracts of the stems. However, in vivo antioxidant properties of the ethanol extracts of the stems did not seem to be significant, judged from the lipid peroxide values of serum and liver in normal mice. Thus, the ethanol extracts of the stems were shown to be more potent for protecting biological systems against various oxidant stresses in vitro, but not in vivo.

Acanthopanax senticosus, a member of the Araliaceae used as an invigorant in traditional Korean medicine, is known to relieve physical fatigue. The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of eggs laid by hens fed on Acanthopanax senticosus extracts on physical endurance and reproductive parameters. Male Sprague-Dawley rats at 4 wk of age were divided into 3 groups of 15 rats each: group A (14% egg yolk powder from hens fed with Acanthopanax senticosus extracts+86% AIN-93G), group B (14% plain egg yolk powder + 86% AIN-93G) and group C (7% fat source + 93% AIN-93G), and studied for 5 wk. The rats' physical endurance was measured via forced swimming tests. According to the results, 53.3% rats of group A swam for longer than 20 min, in group B and C, only 48.9% and 46.7% of the rats achieved this. In terms of reproductive parameters, sperm motility was significantly higher in group A than in groups B and C (p<0.05). However, no differences in sperm count were detected among the groups. Additionally, the serum testosterone levels of groups A and B were higher than that of group C. Our findings suggest that rats fed with egg yolk powder from hens fed on Acanthopanax senticosus extracts may improve athletic endurance and reproductive parameters in rats.

Acanthopanax senticosus has been used in East Asia as a traditional medicine. The purpose of this study is the investigation of an extraction method for A. senticosus var subinermis (ASvS) leaves to improve their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Six extracts were prepared: extracted with water (W), ethanol (Eth), water or ethanol after ultra high pressure (WP, EthP), and water or ethanol after an extrusion process (WEx, EthEx). Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing ability showed that all extracts had a significant antioxidant activity. In anti-inflammatory activities, Eth and EthEx significantly inhibited the release of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$, and interleukin (IL)-$1{\beta}$ independent of cell viability in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Inducible NO synthase (iNOS) protein was significantly decreased by EthEx. These findings present that Eth and EthEx extracts of ASvS leaves have anti-inflammatory activities, and EthEx extract suppresses LPS-induced NO through the down-regulation of iNOS and pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Using high-fat-fed C57BL/6 mice, therapeutic effects of oral administration of aqueous extracts of Platycodon grandiflorum and Acanthopanax senticosus on obesity were evaluated by comparing body and liver weights, feed intake, adipose tissue mass, blood lipid profile, and triglyceride and total cholesterol levels in liver and feces. Obesity was successfully induced in high-fat diet group. P. grandiflorum and A. senticosus were effective in reducing food intake, serum lipid levels, adipose tissue accumulation, and weight. P. grandiflorum extract reduced triglyceride and cholesterol levels in liver by excluding them in feces. A. senticosus extract increased triglyceride level in liver but decreased in feces, and decreased total cholesterol in liver and feces, indicating active ingredient of A. senticosus exert antiobesity effect through mechanism different from that of P. grandiflorum extract. These results suggest aqueous extracts of P. grandiflorum and A. senticosus have synergistic effect for prevention of hyperglyceridemia and obesity.

In vitro 실험을 통한 가시오가피 물 추출물 첨가가 마우스의 면역세포 증식에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구 결과, 음의 대조군에 비해 가시오가피 물 추출물을 첨가한 모든 농도에서 비장세포 증식능이 증가하였으며, 특히 고농도인 $500{\sim}1,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 유의적으로 증가하였다. 반면, 복강 대식세포로부터 유도된 사이토카인 생성의 경우, IL-2, IFN-${\gamma}$, TNF-${\alpha}$ 사이토카인 생성량을 측정한 결과, TNF-${\alpha}$ 사이토카인은 가시오가피 물 추출물 $50{\mu}g/mL$ 농도와 $250{\sim}1,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 대조군보다 유의적으로 높은 분비량을 보인 반면, IFN-${\gamma}$에서는 변화를 보이지 않았다. IL-2의 경우, $100{\sim}500{\mu}g/mL$에서 유의적으로 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다. 이상의 결과에 의하면 가시오가피 물 추출물은 마우스 비장 세포를 증식시키고, 사이토카인 분비량에도 영향을 줄 것으로 보이며, 면역 기관의 주요 기능을 증진시킬 가능성이 있을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 가시오가피 물 추출물이 면역 증진 기능성식품 개발의 소재로 활용될 가능성이 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 가시오가피 추출물의 부위, 추출 용매, 산 가수분해 전처리에 따른 항산화 활성을 알아보고자 FRAP assay를 실시하였으며, 총 페놀 함량을 측정하고, 가시오가피 추출물의 항산화 활성과 총 페놀 함량간의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 또한 가시오가피 추출물 처리가 조골세포 증식률과 alkaline phosphatase 활성에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 가시오가피의 골다공증 예방 가능성을 규명하고자 하였다. 연구결과 가시오가피에 함유된 총 페놀 함량과 FRAP법으로 측정된 항산화 활성 간에 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으므로, 가시오가피의 항산화 활성은 함유된 폴리페놀에 의해 나타나는 것으로 풀이된다. 그러나 가시오가피에 함유된 폴리페놀 함량과 항산화 활성은 가시오가피의 부위와 추출 용매 및 산 처리 여부에 따라 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 가시오가피의 에탄올 추출물이 물 추출물에 비하여 조골세포 증식을 유의적으로 증가시켜주는 것으로 나타났다. 가시오가피의 물 추출물은 조골세포에서 염기성 인산 분해 효소의 활성을 유의적으로 증가 시켰다. 이는 가시오가피의 부위와 추출 용매 및 전처리 과정에 따라 추출되는 활성 성분의 종류와 양에 차이가 있기 때문으로 풀이된다. 이 결과는 가시오가피의 가공법을 선정하는데 고려되어야 할 중요한 사항으로 사료된다. 본 연구를 통하여 가시오가피의 항산화 활성과 조골세포 증식 효과가 제시되었다. 한국산 가시오가피를 건강 기능 식품 소재로 개발하기 위해서는 동물 실험과 인체 시험을 통한 심도 있는 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.
