알코올에 의한 지방간(지방변성증)은 에탄올 대사에 의해 감소되는 당량의 과도한 발생에 의해 유발된다. 일반적으로 만성적인 에탄올 투여는 간 지질의 합성을 증가시키는 sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c (SREBP-1c)를 조절함으로써 지방변성증을 유발시킨다. SPEBP-1c에서 에탄올의 영향은 간에서의 지방대사를 조절하는 NAD⁺ 의존적 단백질 탈아세틸화효소인 mammalian sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1)에 의해 조정된다. 홍삼은 항당뇨와 항비만 효과를 위해 아시아에서 광범위하게 사용되는 한약재이다. 홍삼의 약리학적 치료학적인 효과는 진세노사이드와 같은 생물활성 성분에 의해 주로 일어난다. 따라서 우리는 마우스 간세포주인 AML-12 세포에서 SREBP-1과 SIRT-1에대한 한국홍삼 추출물의 조절효과를 평가하였다. 알코올과 홍삼추출물(0-1,000 μg/ml)을 AML-12 세포주에 처리하고, 지방소립을 Oil red O 염색법으로 확인하고, western blots을 사용해 SIRT-1과 SREBP-1의 발현을 확인하였다. 에탄올을 처리한 세포에서 홍삼추출물은 SIRT-1과 SREBP-1c의 발현을 회복시켰다. 또한 에탄올이 처리된 세포에서 홍삼추출물과 진세노사이드 Rb₂와 Rd가 SREBP-1을 유의적으로 감소시키는 것으로 확인 되었다. 결과적으로 홍삼과 활성 진세노사이드 성분인 Rb₂와 Rd가 SIRT-1과 간 지질대사를 변화시키는 SREBP-1c의 아세틸화의 조절을 통해 알코올에 의한 간지방변성을 억제하는 것을 확인하였다.

Objectives: This study aimed for establishing the discriminative criteria for Aucklandiae Radix, Inulae Radix, Vladimiriae Radix and Aristolochiae Radix, which can be confused as 'Mokhyang', because of similar appearances and synonyms. Methods: Morphological characteristics of dried herbal medicines were compared by macroscopic observation. To examine microscopic features of 'Mokhyang', paraffin embedding and the staining by using Ju's method were conducted. Physicochemical experiments were performed using HPLC analysis and antioxidant assay. Results: The types of stem, phyllotaxy and leaf shape were chosen as macroscopic criteria and the size, oil spots, color and root top as well as phloem and central cylinder were compared using microscopic features. The HPLC results showed different amounts of costunolide and dehydrocostuslactone among Aucklandiae Radix, Inulae Radix and Vladimiriae Radix. However, Aristolochiae Radix only contained aristolochic acid. The antioxidant assays also showed that Vladimiriae Radix exhibited strongest antioxidant activity followed by Aucklandiae Radix, Inulae Radix and Aristolochiae Radix. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that macroscopic, microscopic and physicochemical methods would be useful tools for the discrimination of 4 kinds of 'Mokhyang'.

Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriense are often used in treatment of human diseases such as hemorrhage, blood congestion and inflammation in Korea. However, there was not report on the anti-obesity efficacy of water extracts from different organs of C. japonicum var. ussuriense. Here, we investigated the antioxidant effects of water extracts of flowers, leaves and roots from C. japonicum var. ussuriense. Total polyphenol amounts of the flower extract showed higher than those of leaf and root extract. Flower extract also showed the high antioxidant activities such as DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power. We also investigated the anti-obesity effects of water extracts of flowers, leaves and roots from C. japonicum var. ussuriense in 3T3-L1 cells and high fat diet-induced obesity mice. The mice were divided into four groups [high fat diet (HFD) control, HFD + leaf extract, HFD + flower extract and root extract] and administered with each extract (200 mg/kg) for 12 weeks. The flower and leaf extract significantly suppressed the levels of oil red O and triglyceride content. The flower and leaf extract also significantly reduced the triglyceride, total cholesterol and lower density lipoprotein levels of plasma as well as body and abdominal fat weight. Furthermore, oral glucose tolerance in the flower and leaf extract groups were significantly ameliorated in comparison to the high fat diet group. Therefore, these results indicate that the flower and leaf extract could ameliorate obesity and attenuate blood glucose level in high fat diet-induced obesity mice. We conclude that this study may provide positive insights into water extracts of flowers and leaves from C. japonicum var. ussuriense as a functional food ingredient for treatment of obesity.

This study was conducted to develop a fast and efficient screening method to determine the quantity of fatty acid in peanut oil for high oleate breeding program. A total of 329 peanut samples were used in this study, 227 of which were considered in the calibration equation development and 102 were utilized for validation, using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS). The NIRS equations for all the seven fatty acids had low standard error of calibration (SEC) values, while high R2 values of 0.983 and 0.991 were obtained for oleic and linoleic acids, respectively in the calibration equation. Furthermore, the predicted means of the two main fatty acids in the calibration equation were very similar to the means based on gas chromatography (GC) analysis, ranging from 36.7 to 77.1% for oleic acid and 7.1 to 42.7% for linoleic acid. Based on the standard error of prediction (SEP), bias values, and $R^2$ statistics, the NIRS fatty acid equations were accurately predicted the concentrations of oleic and linoleic acids of the validation sample set. These results suggest that NIRS equations of oleic and linoleic acid can be used as a rapid mass screening method for fatty acid content analysis in peanut breeding program.
