항산화성의 카로티노이드계 물질의 우수 급원인 파프리카를 돈지 모형계에 사용하여 항산화효과를 보고자 하였다. 돈지에 원적외선 $50^{\circ}C$에서 건조한 파프리카 분말(PP) 3, $5\%$와 fresh paprika(FP)를 $3\%$ 첨가하여 $4^{\circ}C$에서 8일 동안 지질 산화 억제 효과를 비교하였다. PP와 FP 첨가군의 POV와 TBA값 증가율은 대조군에 비해 현저히 낮았으며, 특히 FP $3\%$ 첨가군은 냉장저장 8일째에도 거의 변화가 없었고, 불포화지방산 파괴는 가장 작게 나타나 가장 우수한 지방산화억제효과를 보였다. 그러므로 돈지 모형계에서 파프리카의 지질산화 억제효과는 원적외선건조로 인한 항산화성분의 파괴로 감소하며, 항산화성분이 다량 함유된 FP는 육제품 지방산화에 대해 우수한 산화방지제로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다

This study aims to investigate the biological activities related to hair loss of short anti-oxidant peptides (DK peptides) $5{\alpha}$-reductase inhibition and anti-oxidation. The series of DK peptides were generated amphipathic helical properties using leucines, lysines and tryptophan residues. Cell viability and free radical scavenging activities were performed using 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, respectively. The DK peptides were investigated for inhibitory activity against $5{\alpha}$-reductase. Antioxidant activities were determined by means of, 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays. All peptides could inhibit $5{\alpha}$-reductase in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophage. In conclusion, DK peptides was suggested as the most attractive ingredients for improving hair loss, because of the high inhibitory against $5{\alpha}$-reductase inhibition.

Objectives: Peroxynitrite ($ONOO^{-}$), formed from the reaction of superoxide <${\cdot}O_2^{-}$) and nitric oxide (NO), is a cytotoxic species that can oxidize several cellular components such as proteins, lipids and DNA. It has been implicated in diseases such as aging process, Alzheimer's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer and arteriosclerosis. Due to the lack of endogenous enzymes responsible for $ONOO^{-}$ inactivation, developing a specific $ONOO^{-}$ scavenger is of considerable importance. The aim of this study was to evaluate $ONOO^{-}$ scavenging activity and its mechanism in Cheonga-hwan (CAH). Methods: The $ONOO^{-}$ scavenging activity in CAH was assayed by measuring oxidized dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR 123) by fluorescence. The scavenging efficacy was expressed as $IC_{50}$, showing the concentration of each sample required to cause 50% inhibition of DHR 123 oxidation. In a separate study, the protective effect of CAR on $ONOO^{-}$-induced nitration of bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated using immunoassay with a monoclonal anti-nitrotyrosine antibody, and a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody from sheep. Results: CAH showed potent scavenging activities of $ONOO^{-}$, NO and ${\cdot}O_2^{-}$. The data demonstrated that CAH led to decreased $ONOO^{-}$-mediated nitration of tyrosine through electron donation. CAH showed significant inhibition on nitration of bovine serum albumin by $ONOO^{-}$ in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusions: CAH can be developed as an effective peroxynitrite scavenger for the prevention of the $ONOO^{-}$ involved diseases.

To evaluate the antioxidant effect of flavonoids and a-tocopherol on purified fish oil(up to $40\%$ of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids), lipid peroxidation, and fatty acids content during storage and upon heating were determined. The potential of these compounds for inhibiting and delaying both oxidation and lipoxygenase processes was also evaluated. The oxidation of fish oil was effectively inhibited by flavonoids and a-tocopherol. The antioxidizing effect of these compounds increased in proportion to their concentration. The addition of a-tocopherol and catechin-a-tocopherol mixture were prolonged induction period of lipid oxidation by 3.5 to 4 times. All other flavonoids also shown more than twice the prolonging effect. Lipoxygenase activity was decreased by catechin and a-tocopherol effectively.

본 연구는 왕겨를 이용한 항산화, 항노화에 효과적인 초액을 대량생산하여 기능성을 검증하고 왕겨초액 내의 기능성물질을 분석하여 사업화의 가능성을 타진하고자 하였다. 정제된 왕겨초액을 분획하여 기능성이 확인된 부분을 HPLC 기기를 이용하여 확인한 결과 caffeic acid 외에 7종의 polyphenol 유래물질에서 기능성을 확인하였다. 기능성 화장품소재 시험으로는 세포 생존율 측정(MTT assay), 주름개선 (collagenase inhibition assay, elastase inhibition assay), 미백(tyrosinase inhibition assay), 항산화 시험(DPPH free radical scavenging assay, SOD-like activity, xanthine oxidase inhibition assay)이 실시하였다. 피부주름형성은 콜라겐의 합성과 분해가 중요한 원인으로 작용한다고 알려져 있지만, 최근 많은 연구에서 엘라스틴의 재형성과 분해 또한 주름형성 기전에서 중요한 작용을 하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 왕겨초액은 $100{\mu}L/mL$의 농도에서 collagenase 저해효과가 100%, elastase 저해효과가 55% 이상으로 주름개선 효과가 우수하였다. 왕겨초액은 $100{\mu}L/mL$의 농도에서 tyrosine에 대한 tyrosinase 저해효과가 80% 이상으로 미백효과가 우수하게 나타났다. DPPH radical 소거율, xanthine oxidase 저해와 SOD-like 활성을 이용하여 항산화 효과를 측정하였다. 왕겨초액 $100{\mu}L/mL$의 농도에서 DPPH radical 소거율이 80%, xanthine oxidase 저해효과가 80%, 그리고 SOD-like 활성이 100%를 나타내었다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 정제 왕겨초액을 이용한 산업화를 위한 가능성을 타진하여 효과가 좋음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 결과로 왕겨초액을 이용한 기능성 화장품의 소재로 뿐만 아니라, 식품 및 의약외품의 품목허가를 통하여 고부가가치의 상품화소재로의 가능성이 있다고 사료됩니다.

In this study, we evaluated anti-oxidation and whitening effects of Ligularia stenocephala extract for use as the cosmeceuticals. L. stenocephala was extracted by three different solvents which was n-Hexane, ethyl acetate, $H_{2}O$. The free radical (1,l-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) scavenging activity of extract of L. stenocephala was in the order: ethyl acetate fraction of leaf ($IC_{50}$ value of 10.512ug/mL) > ethyl acetate fraction of stem ($IC_{50}$ value of 31.877ug/mL) > $H_{2}O$ fraction of leaf ($IC_{50}$ value of 129.194ug/mL). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activity of extract of L. stenocephala was in the order: ethyl acetate fraction of leaf ($IC_{50}$ value of 0.230mg/mL) > ethyl acetate fraction of stem ($IC_{50}$ value of 0.528mg/mL) > $H_{2}O$ fraction of leaf ($IC_{50}$ value of 0.799mg/mL). Tyrosinase inhibition activity of L. stenocephala extracts was reduced 29.477% on ethyl acetate fraction of leaf, 13.583% on ethyl acetate fraction of stems. Therefore, L. stenocephala extracts may be useful as a new antioxidant and whitening agent to inhibit melanogenesis.

In the present study, the halophyte C. falcatum extract and its solvent fractions (n-hexane, 85% aqueous methanol, n-butanol, and water) were evaluated for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Antioxidative ability was measured by DPPH radical, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and peroxynitrite scavenging, DNA oxidation inhibition, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). For DPPH radical and peroxynitrite scavenging, DNA oxidation inhibition, and FRAP, 85% aq.MeOH and n-BuOH fractions showed significant scavenging activity. For production of intracellular ROS in HT-1080 cells, 85% aq.MeOH fraction showed the highest scavenging activity. In addition, anti-inflammatory activity was also assessed by measuring the inhibitory effect against mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory factors (NO, IL-1β, IL-6 and COX-2) in LPS-stimulated Raw 264.7 macrophages. For NO production, crude extract exhibited a strong inhibitory effect at a concentration of 100 ㎍/ml. For mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and COX-2), n-BuOH greatly suppressed expression levels of IL-1β and IL-6 at 100 ㎍/ml concentration while 85% aq. MeOH fraction significantly inhibited that of COX-2 even at 100 ㎍/ml. These results suggest that C. falcatum may be used as a potential source for the development of a natural antioxidant or anti-inflammatory agent.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) receptor plays an important role as a molecular detector of noxious signals in primary sensory neurons. Activity of TRPV1 can be modulated by the change in the environment such as redox state and extracellular cations. In the present study, we investigated the effect of the mercury chloride ($HgCl_2$) on the activity of TRPV1 in rat dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons using whole-cell patch clamp technique. Extracellular $HgCl_2$ reversibly reduced the magnitudes of capsaicin-activated currents ($I_{cap}$) in DRG neurons in a dose-dependent manner. The blocking effect of $HgCl_2$ was prevented by pretreatment with the reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT). Inhibition of $I_{cap}$ by $HgCl_2$ was abolished by point mutation of individual cysteine residues located on the extracellular surface of TRPV1. These results suggest that three extracellular cysteines of TRPV1, Cys616, Cys634 and Cys621, are responsible for the oxidative modulation of $I_{cap}$ by $HgCl_2$.

L-camitine ($\beta$ -hydroxy-${\gamma}$ -trimethyl-ammoniumbutyric acid) is a small water-soluble molecule important in mammalian fat metabolism. It is essential for the normal oxidation of fatty acids by the mitochondria, and is involved in the trans-esterification and excretion of acyl-CoA esters. In this paper, to investigate the relationship between aging and L-camitine, we investigated the effects of in vitro MMP inhibition and activity and expression of UVA-induced MMP 1 in human skin fibroblasts. Fluorometric assays of the proteolytic activities of MMP-l were performed using fluorescent collagen substrates. ELISA (enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay), gelatin-substrate zymography, and RT-PCR ELISA techniques were used for the effects of L-camitine on MMP expression and activity, MMP mRNA expression in UVA irradiated fibroblast. L-camitine inhibited the activities of MMP-l in a dose-dependent manner and the $IC_{50}$/ values calculated from semi-log plots were 2.45mM, and L-carnitine showed strong inhibition on MMP-2 (gelatinase) activity in UVA irradiated fibroblast by zymography. Also, UVA induced MMP expression was reduced 40% by treated with L-carnitine, and MMP-l mRNA expression was reduced dose-dependent manner. Therefore L-carnitine was able to significantly inhibition the MMP activity, regulation of MMP expression in protein and mRNA level. All these results suggest that L-carnitine may be useful as new anti-aging cofactor for protection against UVA induced MMP expression and activity.

본 연구의 목적은 홍미삼의 기능성 연구의 일환으로 총 페놀성 화합물의 추출방법과 DPPH에 대한 수소공여능, linoleic acid의 산화방지활성 및 LDL에 의한 항산화활성 등을 중심으로 연구한 결과이다. 홍미삼에 60% 에탄올를 첨가하여 추출회수별 총 페놀성 화합물을 조사한 결과 3회까지 추출했을 때 대부분이 추출되었기 때문에 추출횟수는 3회가 적당한 것으로 판단되었다. 60% 에탄올 추출액의 수율은 3회까지 추출했을 때 약 37.35%가 추출되었다. 추출 용매에 따른 총 페놀성 화합물의 추출 효율은 물 추출구를 100%로 했을 때, 60% 에탄올 용액으로 추출한 뒤 농축하여 물로 부피를 재조정한 시험구는 122%로 조사되었다. 항산화활성 조사에서 DPPH에 대한 수소공여능에서 시간이 경과함에 따라 항산화 활성이 약간씩 증가하나 활성은 약한 편이었다. Linoliec acid 산화에 대한 산화억제 효과는 1,500 ppm 농도에서 약 72.23%의 저해율을 나타났으며, LDL에 대한 산화방지 효과는 250 ppm 농도에서 그 저해율이 약 22.52%로 나타났다.
