This study was designed to investigate the antihyperlipidemic activity of Fermented Rhus Verniciflua Stokes Extract(FRVSE) on diet-induced hyperlipidemia in rats. The animals were divided into 4 groups of the normal group(fed with normal diet), control group(fed with high fat diet), sample A group(fed with high fat diet and medicated FRVSE 192 ㎎/㎏/day), sample B group(fed with high fat diet and medicated FRVSE 384 ㎎/㎏/day), and received oral administration of each prescription with diet for a period of six weeks. The changes in the body weight, the liver weight, the epididymal fat weight, and the plasma levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride(TG), high density lipoprotein(HDL) cholesterol and low density lipoprotein(LDL) cholesterol were measured. In sample A group, the weight of liver and plasma level of TG decreased significantly. There was a significant decrease in the plasma level of total cholesterol, TG and LDL cholesterol in the sample B group. These results suggest that the FRVSE have a good antihyperlipidemic activity and a potential to treat hyperlipidemia.

영양소와 약물은 생물학적 운명 -즉, 흡수.대사.배설 과정이 유사하여 이 과정에서 상호 작용한다. 약물은 영양소의 흡수.대사.배설에 영향을 미치고 이로 인해 영양상태를 변화시킬 수 있다. 또한 영양상태 및 식이요인은 약물의 이용상태를 변경시킬 수 있다. 따라서 약물치료를 받는 개개인은 좋은 영양상태 유지를 위한 지식을 필요로 하고, 그 질병과 연계한 식이 변형의 중요성을 인식하여야 한다. 영양가 높고 균형 잡힌 식사가 개인의 건강을 유지하는데는 물론이고 영양 불량이나 약물의 약리작용 변경으로 인한 위험을 감소시킬 수 있다.

Eleutherococcus senticosus Maxim. has been successfully used as an oriental medicine for various diseases including allergic disorders. Histamine is a major factor on various allergic responses and it is reported that histamine was released from mast cells by sensitization of allergens. In this study, ethanol extracts from E. senticosus Maxim. were prepared and the composition was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The eleutheroside B as a primary effective component of E. senticosus was contained approximately 225 mg/kg in root bark extracts. The extracts were found to significantly inhibit compound 48/80-induced histamine release form mast cells in dose dependent manner. However the extracts had low cytotoxicity on the mast cells with MTT assay. These results showed that E. senticosus Maxim. extracts may be the effective materials on inflammatory disorders.
