Medicinal plants were screened for the inhibitory effects on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 pretense. Of the extracts tested, the strong inhibitory effects were observed in the acetone extracts of the pericarp of Camellia japonica. Camelliatannin H from the pericarp of C. japonica showed a potent inhibitory activity on HIV-1 pretense. Effects of the extract and compound from leaves of Zanthoxylum piperitum on the enzyme activities were investigated in the liver of bromobenzene-treated rats. The methanol extract and protocatechuic acid isolated from Z. pipetitum reduced the activity of aniline hydroxylase that increased by bromobenzene, while did not affect the activities of aminopyrin N-demethylase and glutathione S-transferase. The extract and protocatechuic acid recovered significantly the activity of epoxide hydrolase decreased by bromobenzene.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the causative agent of AIDS, still continues to spread rapidly in the world population, especially in Africa and Southeast Asia. At present, two kinds of therapeutic approaches are used for treatment of AIDS. One is to target HIV reverse transcriptase, which is responsible for the viral genome transcription. The other is to inhibit HIV pretense PR, which is essential for the processing of viral proteins. Drug combinations based on these approaches can reduce the blood virus to an undetectable level. However, a small amount of virus may lurk inside the immune cells in a dormant state. Another major obstacle of long-term treatment of the disease is remarkable mutation in HIV. Most of the clinical chemotherapeutic agents have one or more of these problems. High cost and harmful side-effects further reduced the desirability of these drugs. In the course our studies on development of anti-HIV agents from natural products, we investigated various crude drugs for their inhibitory activity against HIV-induced cytopathic effects (CPE) in culture cells, HIV-pretense (PR), HIV-reverse transcriptase (RT) including ribonuclease H (RNase H), and HIV integrase (INT). In the present paper, some inhibitory substances relating to the development of anti-HIV agents are reported.

A peptide inhibiting HIV-1 pretense was isolated from the hydrolysate of manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) proteins digested with thermolysin. The peptide was purified by using membrane filtration, gel permeation chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, and reverse phase HPLC, The amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined to be Ile-Tyr-Glu-Gly. This tetrapeptide sequence exists in some proteins of Physarum polycephalum and Mycobacterium smegmatis. Chemically synthesized Ile-Tyr-Glu-Gly showed the $IC_{50}$/ value of 22.3 $\mu$M.

대두에는 이소플라본(isoflavone), 콩단백질, 올리고당(oligosaccharides), 식이섬유(dietary fiber), pretense inhibitor, 사포닌(saponin), 피틴산(phytic acid), 피니톨(pinitol) 등과 같은 다양한 기능성 성분이 함유되어있다. 대두 이소플라본의 경우, boiling, steaming, roasting의 가열 방법 중 roasting이 손실을 최소화하는 가열방법이며, 대두제품 중에는 대두, natto, 두부, 두유, 된장, 고추장 순으로 함량이 감소한다. 대두나 단순대두 가공품의 경우는 glucoside의 비율이 높은 것에 비하여, natto를 제외한 발효 대두에 있어서 aglycone의 함량이 상대적으로 더 높게 나타난다. 대두 올리고당 함량(%)은 생대두분말(2.87)>대두(2.75)>두유(2.59)>두부(0.56)>natto(0.34) 순으로 높다. 생대두의 경우 상당량의 BBPI(Bowman-Birk pretense inhibitor)가 함유되어 있으나 다양한 가공, 조리 공정을 거친 대두 가공제품의 경우 대부분의 BBPI가 소실 또는 불활성화 되는 것으로 나타난다. 대두 phytate는 열과 수침에 비교적 안정하나, 발표기간이 길어지면 함량이 감소한다. 대두 피니톨은 수용성이며 열 및 산, 알칼리 조건에서 매우 안정하다. 대두는 생으로 섭취하지 않고 익혀서 먹거나, 다양한 대두제품의 형태로 섭취하므로, 생리활성을 기대하며 대두제품을 섭취할 때, 대두의 조리 및 가공 과정이 기능성 성분에 미치는 영향을 고려하는 것이 필요하다고 사료된다.
