The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs)-enriched diet supplemented with different levels of $\alpha$-tocopherol on the activities of hepatic lipogenic-related enzymes and the contents of liver and plasma lipid fractions in laying Tsaiya ducks. A total of 180 30-wk-old laying Tsaiya ducks, at the beginning of peak production, were allotted into 6 treatments with 3 replicates each. Ducks were fed one of the 6 experimental diets, containing 4% tallow (control), and 4% fish oil supplemented with graded levels of $\alpha$-tocopheryl acetate ($\alpha$-tocopherol) at 0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 mg/kg, respectively, for 6 wks. Feed and water were supplied ad libitum throughout the experimental period. The results indicated that the n-3 PUFAsenriched diet supplemented with different levels of $\alpha$-tocopherol did not affect (p>0.05) egg weight, feed intake, body weight change or liver and abdominal fat weights. Egg production, egg mass and feed efficiency significantly (p<0.05) improved as dietary $\alpha$-tocopherol levels increased. The activities of hepatic lipogenic-related enzymes including acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6. 2. 1. 3; ACC), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1. 1. 1. 49; G-6-PDH), ATP-citrate cleavage enzyme (EC 4. 1. 3. 8; CCE), NADP-malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.40; NADP-MDH) and fatty acid synthetase (FAS) were higher (p<0.05) in birds fed with the tallow diet than in those fed with fish oil diets and increased with increasing dietary $\alpha$-tocopherol levels. None of the dietary treatments significantly affected the contents of triglyceride and total cholesterol in the liver, or total cholesterol, phospholipid and total lipid in the plasma. However, the contents of phospholipid and total lipid in the liver, and triglyceride in the plasma increased as dietary $\alpha$-tocopherol levels increased. Increasing dietary $\alpha$-tocopherol levels decreased the non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) content in the plasma and trended to decrease the cholesterol contents in the egg yolk. The lipid metabolism of laying Tsaiya ducks was influenced not only by the dietary fat but also by the supplementation levels of $\alpha$-tocopherol.

It can be hypothesized that dietary fatty acids can modulate immune responses in fish by inducing apoptosis of immune cells since dietary polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) increase apoptosis by oxygen radicals generated by peroxidation. Thus we examined the effects of deferent dietary lipid sources such as squid liver oil (FO), linseed oil (LO) and soybean oil (SO) on oxidation (Cytochrome C oxidase; COS), apoptosis (TNF-${\alpha}$ Scinderin like) and immune (IL-$1{\beta}$ and NKEF) gene expression in the main immune organ (head kidney) in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) by Q-PCR analysis after feeding diets containing each oil (5%) for 15 weeks. Linseed oil and soybean oil were chosen to compare n-3 or n-6 enriched vegetable oils, respectively. Consequently, COS, TNF-${\alpha}$ and Scinderin like gene expression was increased in SO group, indicating the induction of oxidation and apoptosis. Meanwhile, no significant difference was found in immune gene expression. In conclusion vegetable oils containing n-3 PUFA like linseed oil seems to be more suitable lipid source than soybean oil for replacement of fish oil in flounder since n-6 PUFA in SO leads to activation of apoptosis pathways within the cellular damage in head kidney.

The purpose of our study was to determine the impact of rosemary extract in duck eggs, as determined by in vitro antioxidant capacity, lipid oxidation, fatty acid profiles, and flavor analyses. Three groups of salted duck eggs were compared: A control group and group enriched with 0.1% and 0.5% (w/v) rosemary extracts for 28 days of salting. In a time-dependent manner, the radical scavenging activity and reduction power of eggs with 0.5% (w/v) rosemary extract were significantly higher those of the control at 28 days after salting. The fatty acid profiles of salted egg were significantly affected by rosemary extract and salting time. Palmitic acid was the most abundant fatty acid in salted egg treated with rosemary extract, followed by linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. Furthermore, the treated eggs contained more docosahexaenoic acid than the control ones. And the treated eggs also have a considerable impact on the lipid oxidation process (primary and secondary oxidation). As a result, rosemary extract can be used as a natural antioxidant spice to prevent oxidation and extend the shelf life of eggs during storage. Furthermore, flavor research using solid phase microextraction - gas chromatography - mass spectrometry and an electronic nose demonstrated that adding rosemary extract to salted eggs could give them a distinct flavor.

총 식이섬유 함량과 에너지 수준을 동일하게 조정한 보리첨가식이 및 ${\beta}-glucan$ 함량을 높인 농축획분 첨가식이가 간에서의 지질대사에 미치는 영향을 시험하였다. 체중을 고려한 간무게 결과는 콜레스테롤 투여로 증가되는 것으로 나타났으며 보리 및 ${\beta}-glucan$ 투여에 의한 차이는 없었다. Control군과 fiber-free군의 간에서는 normal(cholesterol-free)군의 간과는 달리 콜레스테롤 첨가로 인하여 심한 지질 침착이 관찰되었다. 반면 보리첨가군의 경우 동량의 콜레스테롤을 섭취하였으나 지질 침착이 거의 없거나 미약하여 normal 간과 유사한 형태였다. 간의 단위무게당 콜레스테롤과 중성지방 농도는 보리 ${\beta}-glucan$ 농축획분을 첨가한 N glucan(5%)와 W glucan(5%)군에서 각각 대조군의 50%와 60%이하 수준으로 현저하게 감소하였다. 식이섬유 함량이 10%가 되도록 찰보리 농축획분의 양을 증가시킨 W glucan(10%)군의 간 콜레스테롤 저하효과는 더욱 현저하였다. 따라서 0.5%의 콜레스테롤을 첨가하고 5%와 10%의 식이섬유를 보리로부터 공급했을 때 변으로 배설된 콜레스테롤과 중성지방을 보상하기 위한 간에서의 생합성 증가는 일어나지 않고 오히려 간의 콜레스테롤과 중성지방 함량이 현저히 낮아지고 간에 지질 침착이 일어나지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

아연 고함유 효모 S. cerevisiae FF-10의 항산화능을 검토하기 위하여 DPPH 전자 공여능, linoleic acid을 이용한 ferric thiocyanate법과 TBA법에 의한 과산화지질 생성 정도 및 흰쥐 간 조직 생체막을 이용한 TBARS법에 의한 과산화지질 생성 정도를 측정하였다. 본 실험은 효모 생육배지인 YM 기본배지와 아연 생산량을 증대시키는 YM 최적배지에서 각각 배양된 S. cerevisiae FF-10의 세포 파쇄액의 항산화 활성을 비교하였다. DPPH 전자 공여능은 양성 대조구로 사용한 BHT에서 가장 높았고, YM 기본배지 보다는 YM 최적배지에서 배양된 FF-10 세포 파쇄액에서 항산화 활성이 높게 나타났다. 간 조직 생체막 과산화지질 생성 정도는 BHT > 최적 생산배지 > 기본배지 순으로 저해되었다. Linoleic acid를 이용한 과산화지질 생성정도는 음성 대조구에서 반응 1일째부터 급격히 증가한 후 반응종료일까지 계속 그 수준이 유지되었고, 양성 대조구인 BHT 처리구에서는 과산화지질 생성이 억제되어 높은 항산화활성이 확인되었으며, YM 기본배지 보다는 YM 최적배지에서 높은 과산화지질 생성 저해활성을 보였다. 이상의 결과에서 in vitro 항산화 실험계인 DPPH radical scavenging activity, 간 조직 생체막과 linolic acid 지방산을 이용한 ferric thiocyanate and TBARS 측정에서 항산화 활성은 양성 대조구인 BHT 보다는 낮았으나 최적배지에서 배양된 아연 고함유 효모 S. cerevisiae FF-10 균주의 세포 파쇄액에서 모두 높게 나타나 in vivo 항산화 실험계에서도 확인이 필요한 것으로 사료되어 진다.

The major cuticular components have been shown to be synthesized in the epidermis. Therefore, cloning of epidermis-specific genes could yield information to be used to isolate and characterize the enzymes involved in the cuticle biosynthesis. A subtractive cDNA library was prepared from Senecio odorus in which epidermis-specific cDNAs were enriched. Differential screening of the library using epidermal and non-epidermal probes revealed two cDNAs. One of them designated epi425 was identified, based on the sequence homology, as a member of a new class in the LTP gene family and the other clone designated epi23 as a gene encoding an aldehyde decarbonylase. Northern blot analyses showed that epi425 and epi23 cDNAs hybridized with a transcript of about 600 and 2, 100 nucleotides, respectively, from the epidermis but not from the non-epidermal tissues. Further characterization of these clones will provide more information on the mechanism of the cuticle biosynthesis.

Objective: The current study aimed to investigate the impact of high-fat diets composed of different animal and vegetable fat sources on serum metabolic health markers in Japanese quail, as well as the overall lipid content and fatty acid profiles of the edible bird tissues following significantly increased dietary lipid supplementation. Methods: Fifty seven male quail were divided into six groups and fed either a standard diet or a diet enriched with one of five different fats (22% coconut oil, lard, palm oil, soybean oil, or sunflower oil) for 12 weeks. The birds were subjected to an oral glucose tolerance test following the feeding period, after which they were euthanized and blood, liver, breast, and thigh muscle samples collected. Total fat content and fatty acid profiles of the tissue samples, as well as serum uric acid, triglyceride, cholesterol, total protein, albumin, aspartate transaminase, and total bilirubin concentrations were assessed. Results: High-fat diet feeding had no significant effects on the glucose tolerance of the birds. Dietary fatty acid profiles of the added fats were reflected in the lipid profiles of both the liver and breast and thigh muscle tissues, indicating successful transfer of dietary fatty acids to the edible bird tissues. The significantly increased level of lipid inclusion in the diets of the quail used in the present study was unsuccessful in increasing the overall lipid content of the edible bird tissues. Serum metabolic health markers in birds on the high-fat diets were not significantly different from those observed in birds on the standard diet. Conclusion: Thus, despite the various high-fat diets modifying the fatty acid profile of the birds' tissues, unlike in most mammals, the birds maintained a normal health status following consumption of the various high-fat diets.

The feeding effects of Herba hottuynia extracts on the lipids profiles and the content of TAB-reactive substances were evaluated in rats fed a high cholesterol diet. Hot water or ethanol extracts of the dried leave were evaporated and lyophilized . The experimental animals wer edevided to four groups and fed the following diets for 4 weeks : BAsal (cholesterol-free diet), CHOL(cholesterol-enriched diet),CW (cholesterol plus water extract) and CE(cholesterol plus ethanol extract). Dietary cholesterol increased significantly the activities of serum GOT and GPT, but the extracts feeding (0.5% of diet) did not influence the activities induced by dietary cholesterol. Although dietary cholesterol increased significantly the concentrationof serum andliver cholesterol, it tended to decrease the concentation of serum triglycerides. CHolesterol feeding had a lowering effect on the lipid peroxidation value of serum, but not inliver.Furthermore, the extracts feeding, especially water extract, decreased markedly the liver peroxidation value. The results suggest that Houttyunia cordata extracts have an in vivo antioxidant effect, judged from the TBA value in the liver rats fed a high cholesterol diet.
