계피나무의 어린가지인 계지의 열수추출물에서 높은 보체계 활성효과(항보체 활성)를 발견하여 대량으로 열수추출한 추출물(CC-O)에 대하여 메탄올 환류, 에탄올 침전, 투석, 동결건조를 실시하여 메탄올과 에탄올에 비가용성인 고분자 획분(CC-1)에서 증가된 활성을 보였다. 60.3%의 당과 32.8%의 단백질로 구성되어 있는 CC-1 획분에서 보체계 활성화 본체를 파악하기 위하여 pronase처리에 의한 단백질 분해 및 periodate를 이용한 다당부위를 선택적으로 산화시킨 후, 각각의 활성을 조사한 결과 pronase 처리한 CC-1에서는 보체계활성 효과를 그대로 유지한 반면, CC-1의 periodate 산화물은 CC-1에 비하여 활성이 50% 이하로 감소한 사실로부터 보체계 활성화 물질이 다당임을 확인하였다. CC-1을 양이온 계면 활성제인 cetavlon으로 처리 후 CC-2, CC-3, CC-4 및 CC-5의 4획분으로 분리하였으며 수율과 활성이 가장 높은 CC-2분획을 음이온 교환 수지인 DEAE-Toyopearl 650C column에 흡착시켜 비흡착획분(CC-2-1)과 7개의 흡착획분$(CC-2-II{\rightarrow}CC-2-VIII)$으로 분획하였다. 이 중 0.2 M NaCl로 용출된 CC-2-III 획분을 Sephadex G-100 및 Sepharose CL-6B 겔여과 크로마토그래피를 행하여 주요 활성다당체인 CC-2-IIIa-3를 최종적으로 정제하였다. HPLC상에서 거의 순수한 단일 peak로 확인된 CC-2-IIIa-3는 41.1%의 산성당을 함유하는 산성다당체로서 분자량은 240,000으로 확인되었다. CC-2-IIIa-3의 항보체 활성$(ITCH_{50})$은 1 ㎎/ml의 농도에서 대조군의 94%를 나타내었으며 구성당 조성은 arabinose, xylose, glucose, galactose, galacturonic acid 및 glucuronic acid가 5.56 : 3.77 : 1.87 : 1.00: 5.12 : 3.13의 비율로 존재하였다.

약산성 다당 GL-4IIb2'에 대해 연속적 부분 산가수 분해 과정을 거쳐, 2종의 oligo당 획분 PA-2' 및 PA-1-III를 분리하고 그들의 구조분석을 행하였다. PA-2'는 주요 구성당으로 Rha 와 특이당 Kdo를 동일한 비율로 함유하고 있었으며, permethylated oligosaccharide-alditol로 전환시켜, GC-MS로 분석한 결과, m/z 189$(bA_1)$및 m/z 308 $(aJ_2)$에서 6-deoxyhexose와 Kdo에 기인하는 fragment ion이 관찰되었다. 이 peak는 m/z 162에서 특징적인 ion을 나타낸 반면 m/z 177 ion이 관찰되지 않음으로써 Kdo의 C4위치가 아닌 C5위치가 치환되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 한 methyl화 분석 결과, PA-2'은 환원말단 Rhap와 5-substituted Kdo가 높은 비율로 검출되었으며 환원 형태의 PA-2'를 대상으로 $^1M-NMR$ 분석을 하였을 때 ${\delta}$ 5.09 ppm에서 ${\alpha}-L-Rha$의 anomeric proton에 기인한 단일 signal이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과로 부터 PA-2'는 주로 ${\alpha}-L-Rhap-(1{\rightarrow}5)-Kdo$로 구성되었다는 사실을 알 수 있었다 한편. PA-1-III는 소량의 Ara 믹 Dha와, 다량의 Rha 및 Kdo가 주요 구성당으로 나타났으며, PA-1-III 획분의 permethylated oligosaccharide-alditol 유도체는 GC상에서 3개의 peak (1P, 2P 및 3P)로 분리되었다. 이들의 MS 분석 결과, 높은 비율로 검출된 1P는 $Rhap-(1{\rightarrow}5)-Kdo$의 구조로 나타났으며 반면 낮은 비율의 2P및 3P는 $Araf-(1{\rightarrow}5)-Dha$의 동일구조를 갖는 것으로 확인되었는데 이는 Dha의 carbonyl 환원과정 중 생성된 epimer로 판단되었다.

Background: Korean ginseng has been widely evaluated to treat human diseases; however, most studies on Korean ginseng have focused on its root. In this study, polysaccharides [acidic-polysaccharide-linked glycopeptide (APGP) extracted with 90% ethanol and hot water] were prepared from Korean ginseng berries, and their effect on immunosenescence was explored. Methods: The effect of APGP on thymic involution was evaluated by measuring the size of thymi dissected from aged mice. The effect of APGP on populations of immune cells, including natural killer (NK) cells, dendritic cells, age-correlated CD11c-positive B cells, and several subtypes of T cells [CD4-positive, CD8-positive, and regulatory (Treg) T cells] in the thymi and spleens of aged mice was analyzed by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis. Serum levels of interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-6 were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis. Profiles of APGP components were evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Results: APGP suppressed thymic involution by increasing the weight and areas of thymi in aged mice. APGP increased the population of NK cells, but showed no effect on the population of dendritic cells in the thymi and spleens of aged mice. APGP decreased the population of age-correlated CD11c-positive B cells in the spleens of aged mice. APGP showed no effect on the populations of CD4- and CD8-positive T cells in the thymi of aged mice, whereas it increased the population of Treg cells in the spleens of aged mice. APGP further decreased the reduced serum levels of IL-2 in aged mice, but serum levels of IL-6 were not statistically changed by APGP in aged mice. Finally, HPLC analysis showed that APGP had one major peak at 15 min (a main type of polysaccharide) and a long tail up to 35 min (a mixture of a variety of types of polysaccharides). Conclusion: These results suggested that APGP exerted an anti-immunosenescent effect by suppressing thymic involution and modulating several types of immune cells.

To find antitumor components from higher fungi, the mycelia of Collybia confluens (Pers. ex Fr.) Kummer were cultured in artificial media. For efficient production of the mycelia, the influences of various modifications of culture conditions were examined. A water-soluble protein-bound polysaccharide fraction, Fr. A, was obtained from the mycelia by hot water extraction. When Fr. A was purified and fractionated by DEAE-cellulose and Sepbadex G-200 gel filtration chromatographies into four fractions which were designated B, C, C-I and C-II. The tumor inhibition ratios of these fractions ranged from 46% to 75% against the solid forms of sarcoma 180 in ICR mice at doses of 20 and 50 mg/kg/day when given intraperitoneally. Especially, Fr. C which was named Collyban(CB) exhibited a marked life-prolonging effect of the mice against ascitic forms of sarcoma 180 at a dose of 50 mg via i.p. administration. To extend spectra of the antitumor activities and eliminate the effects of allograft rejection, the characterization of antitumor effects of CB was performed in syngeneic host-tumor systems. It did not show any antitumor activity against L1210 murine leukemia in $CD_2Fl$ mice but prolonged their life span against ascitic forms of $MM_{46}$ carcinoma in $C_3H/He$ mice. Also it exhibited antitumor activity against human cervical cancer HeLa cells that were xenografted into nude mice having BALB/c genetic backgrounds by the i.p. injection at a dose of 100 mg/kg/day. In order to characterize the antitumor components, CB was examined by chemical analysis. It was acidic protein-bound polysaccharides composed of 31% polysaccharide, 27% protein and 3% hexosamine. CB was fractionated into two fractions, Fr. C-I(M.W.: 500 Kd) and Fr. C-II(M.W.:30 and 8 Kd) by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration chromatography.

Dried ginseng (DG) is in fact the representing ginseng product in the worldwide market. Although it is made in various packages depending on the processing method, size and age of DG, basic scientific data reporting the chemical components are limited. In this study, 4-year-old curved ginseng (CG), one of the domestic DG products, was selected for further investigation. Eighty-six samples of 30 and 50 piece-grade CG, which are the most widely distributed in the market, were collected for 5 yr. Their major components, such as moisture, total sugar, acidic polysaccharides, total phenolic compounds, and saponins, were analyzed to figure out the standard quality characteristics. The moisture content of all CG samples was less than 15%. The total water-soluble sugar contents were 22.9% to 47.8% and 23.2% to 49.5% in the 30 and 50 piece-grade CG, respectively. The acidic polysaccharide contents were 3.6% to 6.7% and 2.9% to 6.9% in the 30 and 50 piece-grade CG, respectively. The total phenolic compound content was 0.4% to 0.5% in CG, regardless of the piece-grade. The crude saponin content, which represents the active component of ginseng, was over 2% in all samples. In 30 piece-grade CG samples, the contents of major ginsenosides, Rb1, Rf, and Rg1, were 2.2 to 4.7 mg/g, 0.4 to 1.3 mg/g, and 1.6 to 4.0 mg/g, respectively. The ginsenoside contents in 50 piece-grade CG samples were 2.1 to 3.9 mg/g (Rb1), 0.5 to 1.2 mg/g (Rf), and 1.3 to 3.4 mg/g (Rg1). Overall, since there were relatively high standard deviation and coefficient of variation in all the chemical component contents that were assessed, we found some difficulties in showing the CG standard chemical component characteristics by average, standard deviation, and other statistical analysis factors.

Effects of extrusion conditions (barrel temperature and moisture content) and fermentation time on the antioxidant properties of root hair of tissue cultured raw mountain ginseng (MG) were investigated. The barrel temperature/ moisture combinations were: $110^{\circ}C$/25% (MG1), $140^{\circ}C$/25% (MG2), $110^{\circ}C$/35% (MG3) and $140^{\circ}C$/35% (MG4). Red ginseng (RG) was also investigated. The contents of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and polyphenolic increased after fermentation in RG and even more in MG, while extruded ginseng samples exhibited little change. The increases noted with MG and RG occurred during the first 4 days of fermentation. DPPH radical scavenging activity decreased after extrusion and was significantly higher in MG (20.93%) than RG (1.63%) on the first day of fermentation. DPPH radical scavenging activity in the barrel temperature/moisture combinations were 19.01% (MG1), 14.45% (MG2), 20.37% (MG3) and 15.78% (MG4). The content of polyphenolic compounds in ginseng samples displayed a similar trend. Acidic polysaccharide in RG and MG1${\sim}$MG4 were higher than MG, but decreased during fermentation. Crude saponin in RG and MG1${\sim}$MG4 decreased after 15 days of fermentation, while increasing in MG.

Ginsing polysaccharide, known to have an immune regulating effect, was administered to 23 randomly selected healthy male subjects with a mean age of 23 years in accordance with an IRB approval. Then, these subjects underwent physico-chemical tests and serum proteome was analyzed from the blood sample taken from these subjects. Analyses of proteome involved image analysis, protein sections and protein identification in sequence after two-dimensional electrophoresis was carried out. During the physico-chemical test, 4 subjects were excluded from the study. In the proteome analysis, identified were 5 spots such as SP40, 40, Cytokeratin 9, hypothetical protein LOC544932, Apolipoprotein E ,similar to Human albumin, which showed differences in the amount of protein expression. In conclusion, changes of 5 proteins were remarkable before and after administration of ginsing polysaccharides. In certain cases, hepatic and renal slight injury occurred. Thus, further clinical study on dosage regimen would be necessary for securing the basis for concentration-dependent effectiveness and safety.
