The purpose of this study was to investigate in vivo lipid peroxidation in rats under conditions of streptozotocin-induced oxidative stress and the antioxidant effects of probucol. In vivo lipid peroxidation was observed by measuring low molecular weight aldehydes and related carbonyl compounds in rat urine. Three groups of male Wistar rats weighing 165-190 g were used: normal (N), streptozotocin-induced oxidative stress (OS) and oxidative stress plus probucol treatment (P). following streptozotocin treatment of the rats, a variety of secondary lipid peroxidation products were increased. The levels of butanal, hexanal, hex-2-enal, kept-2-enal, octanal, non-2-enal, deca-2,4-dienal, 4-hydroxyhex-2-enal, 4-hydroxyno n-2-enal, malondi aldehyde(MDA), and unknown carbonyl compounds were significantly increased in the oxidative stress group compared to the control group. Treatment with probucol resulted in significant decreases in buoal, hexanal, hex-2-enal, octanal, deca-2,4-dienal, 4-hydroxyhex-2-enal, MDA and unknown carbonyl compounds. Hept-2-enal, hepta-2,4-dienal and non-2-enal appeared to have a tendency to decrease due to pobucol treatment.

Oxidative stress and its consequent lipid peroxidation exert harmful effects, which have been currently involved in the generation of carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced fibrosis(cirrhosis). In this study, it was investigated whether dried extract of 田螺(Concha Cipangopaludinae; CC) has liver functional improvement, antioxidative and antifibrotic effect in rats those were induced liver fibrosis by CCl₄ administration. The female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups(Normal, AC, AC-CC) and were observed in 6 weeks. Except for normal group, liver fibrosis(cirrhosis) in rats were developed by CCl₄ administration(0.8 ㎖/rat/week). And the rats were treated with prepared CC(p. o. 2 ㎖/day/rat). At the time of sacrifice, the liver, kidney and spleen were weighed and the ratio of organ weight/body weight was calculated. The MDA, hyp and biochemical parameters(AST, ALT, ALP, t-bili) were measured in sera and liver tissue of rats. The strong yellow color of urine was observed in all CCl₄-treated group compared with normal group, but jaundice didn't appear in CCl₄-treated group. The mortality of CCl₄-treated group is very low(<13%) during 6 weeks of observation time. The ratio of liver/body as well as the weight of liver in CCl₄-treated rats significantly increased compared with that in normal group(p<0.001). The level of clinical parameters in sera of all liver fibrosis(cirrhosis) developed rats were significantly higher than that of normal group(p<0.001-0.05). Especially the value of BUN, ALP, t-bilirubin in AC-CC group showed 20.9%, 19.6%, 47.9% lower than that in AC group. The content of hyp in CCl₄-treated rats was significantly higher than normal group(p<0.001～<0.05), and showed 12.2% lower value in the AC-CC group than AC group(p<0.05). The production of lipid peroxidation(MDA) in sera and liver tissue significantly increased under the fibrotic(cirrhotic) condition(p<0.001～<0.05). Especially the MDA value of AC-CC group in sera significantly 46.5% decreased compared with that of AC group(p<0.05), and the MDA value of AC-CC in liver tissue showed 21.4% lower than that of AC group. Concha Cipangopaludinae can be improved hepatic function, and maybe have effect of liver protection, antioxidation and antifibrosis.

Buffalograss는 내한, 내서, 그리고 내한발에 우수한 주요 잔디 종 중 하나이다. 다양한 환경에서 buffalograss의 생리학적 조정(integration)을 이해하는 것은 균일한 잔디의 질을 도모하고 경종적 재배방법의 개발에 도움이 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 물 부족의 스트레스 처리에서의 buffalograss의 생리학적 조정과정에서 lipid peroxidation과 산화방지제의 연관성을 평가하였다. 한 실험에서 buffalograss는 네 개의 구분된 칸막이 성장 유닛의 중심에서 재배되었고, 일주일에 한번(+), 일주일에 두 번(-) 관수처리와 모래(S) 또는 피트(P)와를 혼합한 다섯 가지 토양 조합으로 처리하였다(P+S-P-S+, P+P+P+P+, S-S-S-S-, P-P-P-P-, and S+S+S+S+). 그 결과, 균일하게 혼합된 상토에서 생장한 줄기의 수가 네개의 단일 상토에 정착한 것보다 더 많았다. 두 번째 실험에서는 Hoagland 용액($S_o$), 또는 20% PEG-6000이 함유된 Hoagland용액($S_s$) 안에 하나의 라미트(무성생식체) 혹은 연결된 라마트를 다음과 같은 여러 가지 처리와 비교 실험하였다. 연결된 라미트들의 처리는 Hoagland 용액안의 어린 라미트($Y_{os}$)와 20%PEG-6000가 함유된 Hoagland 용액안의 성숙한 라미트($O_{os}$), Hoagland 용액 단독에 성숙한 라미트($O_{ys}$), 20%PEG-6000 함유된 Hoagland 용액안의 어린 라미트($Y_{ys}$)였다. Lipid peroxidation, antioxidants, proline은 각기 다른 수분 stress 정도에서 라미트들 간의 생리학적 활성을 보여 주었다. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Guaiacol peroxidase (G-POD), malondi aldehyde (MDA), free proline의 활성도 처리 후 시간에 따라 상대적인 생리학적 활성을 보였다.
