To discover the sources with antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibitory activities in Korean traditional medicines, 10 extract of medicinal plants were screened for their potential to scavenge stable 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical, inhibit hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$), total phenolic content, and inhibition of tyrosinase. The potency of DPPH radical scavenging activity was shown in the extract of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica Nakai that has a greater effect with $IC_{50}$ values of $6.49{\pm}5.43{\mu}g/mL$, than BHA ($IC_{50}=20.99{\pm}0.74{\mu}g/mL$), L-ascorbic acid $(IC_{50}=20.59{\pm}1.06{\mu}g/mL),\;and\;{\alpha}-tocopherol\;(IC_{50}=25.55{\pm}0.26{\mu}g/mL)$ as a positive control. The ${\cdot}OH$ scavenging activities were observed in the plants tested. Acanthopanax senticosus, Cirsium setiders, U. davidiana exhibited scavenging activity of more than 60% at $500{\mu}g/mL$. The scavenging activity(%) of BHA and a-tocopherol were 64.32 and 55.87% at $500{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The total phenolic content was determined, in order to assess its effect on the extract's antioxidant activity. The total phenoic content of $33.37{\pm}0.52mg/g$ was conformed by methanolic extract of U. davidiana. The U. davidiana and Morus bombycis exhibited tyrosinase inhibitory activity with a $34.28{\pm}1.32\;and\;75.57{\pm}1.10%$, respectively. In particular, M. bombycis has stronger tyrosinase inhibitory activity than albutin with $36.48{\pm}3.56%$ as a positive control. This work showed that the inhibitory abilities of Korean medicinal plants, such as U. davidiana and M. bombycis, on DPPH free radical, inhibit hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$), and inhibition of tyrosinase and total phenolic content, can be useful in the prevention and treatment of free radical-relate disease. Investigations into further isolation of inhibitory principles of U. davidiana and M. bombycis are now in progress.

An antioxidative activity of Portulaca oleracea was tested by in vitro experimental models. The antioxidative activities were determined by evaluation the DPPH radical scavenging activity and by measuring lipid peroxide using 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA). The crude extract was sequentially partitioned with n-hexane, 15% aq. MeOH, EtOAc, n-BuOH, $H_2O$. Among them, a remarkable antioxidative effect was observed in the fractions of EtOAc and n-BuOH. The DPPH radical scavenging effect $(IC_{50}=17.90{\mu}g/ml)$ of the n-BuOH soluble fraction was comparable with that of natural antioxidant, ${\alpha}-tocopherol(IC_{50}=\;6.99{\mu}g/ml)$ and the inhibitory effect of lipid peroxidation in mouse liver homogenate was similar to that of natural antioxidant, L-ascorbic acid at a concentration of 0.1mg/ml to 5mg/ml. From the BuOH soluble fraction yielded two biophenolic glycosides, 3-hydroxy-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)phenyl-4-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside(1) and 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethyl-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside(2) using column chromatography and revered-phase HPLC. In particular, the DPPH radical scavenging activity of 2 was comparable to that tocopherol$(IC_{50}=6.59{\mu}g/ml)$.

본 연구는 이용도가 높은 녹두의 국내 생산 부족으로 수입이 증가되고 있는 중국산 녹두의 천연 항산화성 소재로 활용시 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였으며, 녹두의 메탄올 추출물의 페놀성 화합물 함량과 in vitro 항산화 모델(DPPH 라디칼 소거능, ABTS 라디칼 소거능)을 통하여 항산화 활성을 측정하였다. 중국산 녹두 추출물의 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 $174.83{\pm}2.90GAE\;mg/g$ 및 $68.87{\pm}2.84QE\;mg/g$으로 나타났다. 중국산 녹두 추출물의 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 ABTS 라디칼 소거능은 농도 의존적으로 유의적으로 증가하였으며(p<0.05), 초기 ABTS 라디칼의 50%를 소거하는데 필요한 농도($IC_{50}$)는 2.85 mg/mL로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로부터, 중국산 녹두는 페놀성 화합물이 풍부하며, 천연물 유래 항산화성 소재로서 활용 가능성이 높은 것으로 기대된다.

This study was conducted to measure changes in polyphenol components and antioxidant effects of Cirsium Lineare (Thunb.) after fermentation by lactic acid bacteria. First, Cirsium Lineare (Thunb.) extract (CE, unfermented) and Cirsium Lineare (Thunb.) extract fermented with Lactobacillus paracasei (FCE) were prepared. Changes in components resulting from fermentation were confirmed through changes in polyphenol compound content and silymarin derivative pattern, and antioxidant activity was confirmed using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, 2,2'azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) analyses. As a result, polyphenol contents of CE and FCE were confirmed as 21.94 ± 1.15 and 67.90 ± 4.48 mg GAE/g, respectively. Both values were increased approximately three times by fermentation, and there was also a change in the silymarin derivative pattern. In the case of DPPH radical RC₅₀ values in particular, CE and FCE were confirmed to inhibit DPPH radicals by 50% at concentrations of 129.44 ± 5.85 and 50.00 ± 3.47 ㎍/mL, respectively, with the FCE value approximately 2.5 times lower than that of CE. In addition, ABTS radical scavenging and FRAP activity were confirmed to share similar trends as DPPH radical scavenging activity. When CE and FCE were compared, FCE showed a better antioxidant effect overall. In conclusion, this study suggested that FCE prepared through lactic acid bacteria fermentation may be utilized as a powerful antioxidant material.

In our search for bioactive phenolics from plants, the culms of Phyllostachys bambusoides has been selected for investigation of anti-cariogenic and 1,1-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging agents based on the initial screening results. Fractionation process of n-hexane and $CHCl_3$ extracts afforded four phenolic constituents, ferulic acid (1), vanillin (2), coniferaldehyde (3), and coniferyl alcohol (4) as guided by their DPPH free radical scavenging activities. Additionally, activity-guided fractionation of EtOAc extract with anti-cariogenic activity has resulted in the isolation of coniferaldehyde (3), 2,6-dimethoxy-p-benzoquinone (5), p-methoxycinnamic acid (6), (${\pm}$)-balanophonin (7), and 6-methoxychromanone (8). The structures of 1 - 8 were determined by spectroscopic data interpretation, and also by comparison of their data with the published values. Phenolic compounds 1 - 4 exhibited similar DPPH radical scavenging activities compared with the synthetic antioxidant, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and compounds 3 and 5 - 8 showed significant antibacterial activity against cariogenic oral streptococci, Streptococcus mutans and S. sobrinus.

Assai 열매추출물의 자유 라디칼 소거능을 측정하기 위하여 DPPH를 이용한 자유 라디칼 소거능 실험을 수행하여 항산화 효과를 측정한 결과, assai열매추출물의 농도가 높을수록 DPPH활성이 뛰어남을 알 수 있었고, ROS를 이용하여 항산화 효과를 확인하였다. 배양된 대식세포에 assai열매추출물을 농도별로 첨가한 결과, 농도가 높을수록 과산화수소에 의해 유도된 산화적 자극이 감소하였다. 또한 세포 생존에 미치는 영향을 알고자 assai열매추출물을 농도별로 첨가하여 24시간후 세포의 형태변화를 MTT assay로 실시한 결과, 산화적 자극에 의해 발생한 세포 손상이 assai 열매추출물의 농도가 높아질수록 감소하는 것이 확인되었다. 따라서 assai열매추출물은 천연 항산화제로서의 가능성을 보였다.
