With a view to obtaining basic informations on the morphological, physiological and ecological aspects of hop in Korea, this experiments were conducted in 4 locations (Suwon, Hongchun, Pyungchang and Hoengsung) from 1972 to 1974. The varieties used in this experiments were Hallertau, Saaz, Shinshuwase and Cascade. the results obtained are summarized as follows.

Neuropharmacological profile of Humulus lupulus (hop) extract was studied in mice. At doses above 100 mg/kg(i.p.), it decreased spontaneous locomotor activity and raised the nociceptive threshold in the hot-plate test. At doses above 250 mg/kg (i.p.), it increased pentobarbital-induced sleeping time and produced muscle relaxant effect. At the dose of 500 mg/kg, anticonvulsive effect against pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsion and hypothermic effect was observed.

Wearing a mask is still advised since COVID-19 continues to spread. However, masks may also irritate the skin and cause mask acne, often known as "maskne", which is a type of acne mechanica caused by friction between the skin and clothing. Therefore, there is a need to develop an effective maskne cosmetic. In this study, we made the maskne cosmetics containing humulus lupulus extract and copper tripeptide-1 and investigated its stability and safety. To measure stability, a centrifugation test and heat-cool cycling were done, and changes in viscosity and pH were measured for 8 weeks. The Cumulative Irritation Test (CIT, WKIRB-202111-HR-096) was performed and positive reactions were determined by the ICDRG criteria. The results indicated that the samples were stable after centrifugation, temperature cycling, viscosity, and pH tests. In addition, cosmetic safety test results revealed that maskne cosmetics containing humulus lupulus extract and copper tripeptide-1 did not cause any skin responses. These findings indicate that prepared maskne cosmetics' stability and safety were comparable to those of currently available commercial cosmetics.

Xanthohumol was isolated from hops (Humulus lupulus L.), and then investigated anti-oxidant effect by AAPH-induced LLC-PK1 cell and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORCA) assays and MMP-12 inhibitory effect by direct MMP-12 inhibition assay. The treatment of xanthohumol protected LLC-PK1 cells from AAPH-induced cell damage such as cell viability, SOD and GSH-px reduction in a dose dependant manner (0.1, 1, and $5{\mu}M$), the SOD value was 2.98, 4.51, and 5.77 U/mg protein, and GSH-px value was 30.12, 49.32, and 60.11 U/mg protein. ORAC value of xanthohumol was showed as 4320, 12004, and $14209{\mu}M$ TE/g at the concentration 0.1, 1, and $5{\mu}M$, respectively. The change of SOD and GSH-px values was significantly correlated with the results of ORAC assay, that is, AAPH-induced cell and ORCA assays. In addition, inhibition of MMP-12 that is known to play an important role in skin aging was 14%, 37%, 46%, and 79% at the concentration of 0.01, 0.1, 1, and $5{\mu}M$, respectively. On the basis of these results, xanthohumol from hops (Humulus lupulus L.) showed interesting biological and pharmacological activity such as anti-oxidant effect and anti-aging.

Hop cones (Humuli Strobili) are the female inflorescences of hop plants (Humulus lupulus L.) belonging to the family Cannabaceae. They have been used as herbal remedies to treat mood and sleep disturbances, and mainly to add as a bittering ingredient in brewing process. Considerable interests on pharmacological and biological activities of hop cones have been focused on their major constituents, namely, phloroglucinols (humulone, lupulone), terpenes (myrcene, humulene), and prenylated flavonoids (xanthohumol, isoxanthohumol, 6-prenylnaringenin, and 8-prenylnaringenin). The present review describes and discusses biological activity profiles of these major compounds in the hop cones.

Nutrition influences cancer incidence and offers a variety of preventive dietary factors including non-nutritive plant metabolites. To identify novel potential chemopreventive agents, we have set up cell- and enzyme-based in vitro marker systems relevant for prevention of carcinogenesis in vivo. This experimental approach led to the identification of Xanthohumol (Xn), a prenylated chalcone from hop (Humulus lupulus L.) as a most promising broad-spectrum chemopreventive agent.(omitted)

Rho iso-alpha acids-rich extract (RIAA) from Humulus lupulus (hops) and proanthocyanidins-rich extracts (PAC) from Acacia nilotica exert anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic activity in vitro and in vivo. We hypothesized that a combination of these two extracts would exert enhanced effects in vitro on inflammatory markers and insulin signaling, and on nonfasting glucose and insulin in db/db mice. Over 49 tested combinations, RIAA:PAC at 5:1 ($6.25{\mu}g/mL$) exhibited the greatest reductions in $TNF{\alpha}$-stimulated lipolysis and IL-6 release in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, comparable to $5{\mu}g/mL$ troglitazone. Pretreatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes with this combination ($5{\mu}g/mL$) also led to a 3-fold increase in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake that was comparable to $5{\mu}g/mL$ pioglitazone or $901{\mu}g/mL$ aspirin. Finally, db/db mice fed with RIAA:PAC at 5:1 (100 mg/kg) for 7 days resulted in 22% decrease in nonfasting glucose and 19% decrease in insulin that was comparable to 0.5 mg/kg rosiglitazone and better than 100 mg/kg metformin. RIAA:PAC mixture may have the potential to be an alternative when conventional therapy is undesirable or ineffective, and future research exploring its long-term clinical application is warranted.

국내 홉 생산은 외국산 수입으로 1990년대 초반 이후 중단된 상태이나, 최근 수제맥주 붐의 영향으로 국내 생산에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 홉 생산 및 육종을 위한 기반연구로 외국산 도입 홉 6개 품종을 대상으로 생육특성 및 증식기술 개발중심으로 수행하였다. 2021년과 2022년 진행한 홉 생육조사에서 재식 후 4년차보다 5년차에서 일반적으로 홉의 착화고, 착화수, 구화의 크기와 무게가 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 홉 삽목 실험의 결과, 일반적으로 발근제 '아토닉' 처리를 하지 않은 물꽂이에서도 전체 평균 발근율이 88%로 높았지만 아토닉을 침지하거나 희석하여 관주할 경우 발근율이 93%로 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 아토닉 처리 방법에 따른 발근력과 발근율에는 품종간 차이가 있었다. 발근 삽목묘를 상토 이식 후 생존율을 확인 하였을 때, 조직배양실에서 삽목한 것이 온실에서 삽목한 것에 비해 상당히 생존율이 떨어졌다. 따라서 홉 삽목시에는 물꽂이 만으로도 높은 삽목 성공률을 얻을 수 있으며, 상토 이식 후 식물체를 안정적으로 관리하는 기술 개발이 홉 대량증식에서 중요할 것으로 판단된다. 조직배양 기술을 통해 홉을 증식할 땐 IAA 0.1 ㎎/L에 BAP 1 ㎎/L 보다 TDZ 1 ㎎/L를 첨가하여 배양하는 것이 다경유도에 효과적이다. 이러한 삽목 및 조직배양 증식과 순화 기술을 정립하면, 국내 홉 건전묘 생산에 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
