Pine(Pinus densiflora Sieb et Zucc.) is one of rhe popular plant drugs which has been used as a medicine in Asia. To investigate the effect of pine needle extract (PNE) on oxygen radicals and their scavenger enzymes in brain membranes of Sprague- Dawley (SD), make SD rats were fed basic diets(control group), and experimental diets (PNE group) with 0.5 and 1.0% of PNE 6 weeks. Mitochondrial hydroxyl radical levels in brain of 0.5%-PNE and 1.0%-PNE groups were significantly inhibited to 30% and 25%, respectively, and microsomal hydrogen peroxide levels in brain of 0.5%-PNE and 1.0%-PNE groups were significantly inhibited to 15% compared with control group. Cytosolic superoxide rdical levels in 1.0%-PNE group were significantly inhibited to 20% compared with control group. Lipid peroxide(LPO) levels in brain mitochondria of 0.5%-PNE and 1.0%-PNE groups were significantly lower(25% and 35%) than that in control group. Mn-superoxide disumtase (SOD) activities in brain of 0.5%-PNE and 1.0%-PNE groups were significantly higher(18% and 12%) than those in control groups, but Cu,Zn-SOD activities in brain of 0.5%-PNE were significantly activated to 15% compared with control group. Glutathione peroxidase(GSHPx) activities in brain of 1.5%-PNE and 1.0% PNE groups were significantly higher(14% and 12%) than those in control group. These results suggest that more beneficial effects such as inhibition of oxygen radicals and lipid peroxide(LPO). and oncreases of scavenger enzymes in brain membranes of SD rats may be effectively modulated by administration of pine needle extract (PNE)

This study was edsigne to investgate the effect of pine needle extract (PNE) on lipid adn oxygen radical metabolisms in serum of Sprague-Dawly (SD). Pine(Pinus densiflora Sieb et Zucc.) is one of the popular plant drugs which gas been used as a medicine in Asia. Male SD rats were fed basic (control group) and experimental diets(RGE group) with 0.5 and 1.0% of PNE for 6 weeks. Body weights gain in 0.5-PNE and 1.0-PNE groups were slightly lower than that in control group, but ther is no significant differences brtween these groups. Total energy intake, feed and gross efficiencies showed almost no change in these groups. Total cholesterol and triglyceride (TG) levels in serumof SD rats in .50-PNE and 0.1-PNE froups sho9wed almost no change colpared with control group. Serum LDL-cholesterol levels significantly decreased (12%) in 0.5-PNE group, while serum HDL-cholesterol levels significantly increased(14%) in 1.0-PNE group compared with control group. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and lipid peroxide (LPO) levels in 50-PNE and 0.1-PNE groups were significantly lower (17 and 13%, 24% and 12%, respectively) than those in control group. Superoxide disumutase (SOD) activity in 50-PNE and 0.1-PNE groups significantly increased about 30 to 15% compared with control group. There results suggest that lower LDL-cholesterol and LPO levels, higher HDL-cholsterol level, and higher SOD activity in serum of rats may be effectively modulated by administration of pine needle extract(PNE).

This study was designed to investigate the effects of pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb et Zucc) needle extract (PNE) on membrane fluidity and oxidative stress in liver membranes of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats as a study on investigation of anti-aging effect and determination of chemical structures of PNE through the animal experiments. Male SD rats were fed basic diets (control group) and experimental diets (0.5% and 1.0%-PNE group) for 6 weeks. Administrations of 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE resulted in a marked decreases (15∼25% and 23∼26%, respectively) in cholesterol accumulations of liver mitochondria and microsomes compared with control group. Membrane fluidities were significantly increased (15∼25%) in liver microsomes of 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups compared with control group. Formations of basal and induced oxygen radicals (BOR and IOR) in liver mitochondria were significantly inhibited (11∼12% and 10∼15%, respectively) by administrations of 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE compared with control group. Lipid peroxide (LPO) levels were remarkbly decreased about 20% in liver mitochondria and microsomes of 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups compared with control group. Oxidized protein levels calculated with carbonyl group were significantly decreased about 15% in liver mitochondria of 1.0%-PNE group compared with control group. These results suggest that PNE may play a effective role in a attenuating a oxidative stress and increasing a membrane fluidity.

Male SD rats were fed basic diets (control group) and experimental diets (0.5% and 1.0%-PNE group) for 6 weeks. There were no significant differences in hydroxyl radical (·OH) formations of liver mitochondria and microsomes in 0.5%-PNE group, while ·OH formations were significantly decreased (10% and 18%, respectively) in liver mitochondria and microsomes of 1.0%-PNE group compared with control group. Microsomal hydrogen peroxides and cytosolic superoxide radicals were remarkably decreased (20% and 20∼25%, respectively) in 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups compared with control group. Mn-SOD activities in mitochondria were significantly increased about 10% in 1.0%-PNE group, while Mn-SOD activities in mocrosomes were remarkably increased (16∼20%) in 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups compared with control group. There were no significant differences in Cu, Zn-SOD activities of liver cytosol in 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups, while glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and catalase (CAT) activities were significantly decreased (28∼30% and 15∼30%, respectively) in liver cytosols of 0.5% and 1.0%-PNE groups compared with control group. These results suggest that these PNE may play a effective role in a attenuating a oxygen radical formations and increasing a scavenger enzyme activities.

뇌 세포막 유동성의 촉진 및 LPO생성의 억제효과는 중풍 등 뇌혈관질환을 억제할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 혈관성치매의 예방에도 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다[26,18]. 따라서 솔잎 EtOAc획분을 하루 25, 50, 100 mg/kg BW로써 SD계 랫트에 45일동안 투여하여 뇌조직중의 세포막 유동성 (membrane fluidity : MF), 기초 및 유도활성산소(BOR 및 IOR), 산화적 스트레스로서 과산화지질(lipid peroxide : LPO) 및 산화단백질(oxidized protein : OP), 그리고 리포푸신(lipofuscin : LF)의 축적에 미치는 영향을 평가하여 보았다. 솔잎 EtOAc획분의 투여에 의하여 뇌조직의 mitochondria 및 microsome획분에서 용량의존적으로 MF가 증가효과가 나타났지만, EtOAc-100 투여그룹의 mitochondria 획분에서만 약 10%의 유의적인 MF의 증가효과가 인정되었다. 뇌조직의 mitochondria에서 기초 및 유도활성산소로서 BOR 및 IOR의 생성은 EtOAc-50 및 EtOAc-100투여그룹에서 각각 9.2∼10.2% 및 17.1∼24.0%의 유의적인 억제효과가 인정되었고, microsomes에서 BOR 및 IOR의 생성은 EtOAc-50및 EtOAc-100투여그룹에서 각각 11.6∼16.6% 및 12.1∼16.1%의 유의적인 억제효과가 인정되었다. 산화적 스트레스에 미치는 영향은 mitochondria 및 microsomes획분에서 EtOAc-50 및 EtOAc-100투여그룹에서 각각 8.5∼12.0% 및 11.6∼18.5%의 유의적인 LPO의 생성 억제효과가 인정되었지만, 뇌조직의 두 획분에서 OP의 생성은 EtOAc획분의 용량의존적으로 억제되었지만, 유의성은 인정할 수 없었다. 또한 뇌조직에서 LF의 축적도 EtOAc획분의 용량 의존적으로 억제효과가 나타났지만, 유의성은 인정할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과에서 평가하여 볼 때 솔잎 EtOAc획분의 투여는 뇌조직의 유동성을 촉진하고 LPO의 생성을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있지만, 현재의 투여농도에서는 OP 및 LF의 생성을 방지할 수 없을 것으로 생각된다.

Nail withdrawal tests were conducted on clear wood of domestic small diameter logs. Nails were driven into the cross and longitudinal sections of each specimen, then nail withdrawal tests were performed. Nail withdrawal loads are strongly dependent on the direction of nail positions. The average load values for the nail withdrawal both in cross section and longitudinal section are higher in high specific gravity (SG) wood of sawtooth oak (Quercus acutissima Carr.) than those in low SG wood of Korean red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.) and pitch pine (Pinus rigida Mill.). The average ratio of the nail withdrawal loads for side-grain and end-grain are higher in the low SG wood than that in the high SG of wood. Both linear and non-linear regression analyses were conducted on nail withdrawal load with SG, good correlations were obtained between nail withdrawal load and SG.

To understand the effect of supplement of water extract of pine needle(WEPN) on shelf-life enhancement of the kimchi, activities of four enzymes and number of lactic acid bacteria, during fermentation of the kimchi, were assayed. Enzyme activities of kimchi fermented for 7 days with supplement by 2% water extract of pine needle showed amylase of 86.4%, protease of 85.8%, polygalacturonase of 61.5% and $\beta$-galactosidase of 58.8% against the control kimchi. WEPN showed weak inhibitory effect when it was applied to the isolated enzymes in vitro then those menifested by the kimchi in vivo. Number of total bacterial cell of WEPN supplemented kimchi increased by 10 folds than control between 7 to 14 days of fermentation. On contrast, number of lactic acid bacteria decreased maximaly to 21% of control by fermentation. The clear zone formed on paper disk by WEPN against L. plantarum was larger than that of Leu. mesenteroides.

솔잎혹파리(Thecodiplosis japonensis Uchida et Inouye) 방제용으로 소나무의 수간에 주입된 침투성 살충제 phosphamidon(2-chloro-2-diethylcarbamoyl-1-methylvinyl dimethyl phosphate)의 대사를 구명하기 위하여 $[vinyl,\;carbonyl-^{14}C]phosphamidon$을 약 10년생 소나무의 수간에 주사하고 그 솔잎 추출액을 autoradiography한 결과 phosphamidon은 소나무 체내에서 신속히 분해됨을 알 수 있었다. 솔잎의 phosphate buffer 추출액 중에서 phosphamidon은 주대사산물인 ${\alpha}-chloroacetoacetic$ acid diethylamide를 비롯하여 ${\alpha}-chloroacetoacetic$ acid ethylamide, 3-hydroxy-N,N-diethylbutanamide, acetoacetamide, 그리고 trimethyl phosphate 등의 대사산물을 생성하였으며, 이 대사작용은 소나무 체내에서도 유사하리라 추정된다. 또한 주 대사경로는 구조식중 P-O-vinyl 결합의 가수분해와 관련있는 것으로 보인다.
