The objectives of the present study were to examine the antioxidant activity of autofocusing fractions from egg white protein hydrolysates and obtain higher antioxidant peptide fraction, which could be applied to the food model system. Alkaline protease hydrolysate of egg white protein exerted higher antioxidant activities than other protein hydrolysates and were fractionated on the basis of the amphoteric nature of sample peptides by preparative isoelectric focusing without toxic solvents and reagents, which is termed autofocusing. Neutral and basic fractions showed higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than the acidic fractions. The acidic and neutral fractions showed higher hydroxyl (OH) radical scavenging activity and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values than the basic fractions. The acidic fractions showed higher metal chelating activity than basic fractions. Antioxidant activities of some autofocusing fractions except for ORAC showed higher compared to the crude hydrolysate. These results suggest that peptides fractions from egg white protein are effective antioxidant, and that autofocusing could be useful to increase antioxidant activity for application to food system.

The anti-hepatotoxic activity of Panax ginseng was studied using galactosamine (GalN)-induced cytotoxicity in primary cultured rat hepatocytes. Panax ginseng was fractionated into dammarane glycosides and protein fractions. The dammarane glycosides was further fractionated into panaxadiol and panaxatriol glycosides fractions. The protein fraction was further fractionated into four groups according to the molecular weight; larger than 10,000 dalton, between 5,000 and 10,000 dalton, between 1,000 and 5,000 dalton and between 500 and 1,000 dalton. A significant lowering action on the elevated glutamicpyruvic transaminase (GPT) activity in the culture medium of hepatocytes treated with 1.5 mM GalN was noticed with all four protein fractions studied at the concentration of both $50\;{\mu}g/ml$ and $100\;{\mu}g/ml$. However, the effect of dammarane glycosides fractions was not significant. It was noted that the addition of $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ of protein fractions smaller than 5,000 dalton significantly enhanced the syntheses of protein and RNA in the damaged hepatocytes induced by the treatment of 1.5 mM GalN. Dammarane glycosides fractions significantly enhanced protein synthesis at the concentration of $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ in the damaged hepatocytes by treatment of 1.5 mM GalN.

In the process of the incorporation of orthophsphate into protein and other cell constituents, the role of inorganic polyphosphate and RNA-polyphosphate complex and the correlation between them were pursued by analyzing the contents of $^{32}P$ and total P in various fractions of Chlorella cells, which had been uniformly labeled with $^{32}P$ before the inoculation in a normal "cold" medium or P-free medium during the culture. The effects of ionizing radiation and various micronutritional-element deficiencies on the phosphate incorporation into, and biosynthesis of, protein and other introgenus compounds in the cells were also observed. When the uniformly $^{32}P$-labeled algae were grown in a normal "cold" medium the contents of $^{32}$ P in the fractions of protein, DNA and RNA-polyphosphate complex increased, but those in the fraction of acid-insoluble polyphosphate decreased. On the other hand, amount of $^{32}P$in the fraction of RNA was almost unchanged in spite of rapid increase of the total P. In the growing period of $^{32}P$-labeled algae in a P-free medium, amounts of $^{32}P$ in the fractions of DNA, protein and lipid increased, while those in the fractions of RNA-polyphosphate and inorganic polyphosphates decreased. When the algal cells were irradiated with about 70, 000r of gamma-rays before the inoculation in the medium, amounts of phosphate in the fractions of DNA, RNA, nucleotides and protein decreased during the culture, compared with those of the control. However, the phosphate content in the fraction of acid-insoluble polyphosphate of the irradiated cells increased than those of the control. In the growing period of the algae in a Mo-free, medium, amounts of acid-soluble total phosphate and nucleotides of the cells increased, while the amounts of residual protein and RNA decresed compared with those of the normal cells. Amounts of alkali-labile protein and phospholipid of the cells grown in a B-free medium decreased, whereas amount of phosphate in acid-soluble fraction increased compared with the control. In general, the contents of protein and RNA in each microelement deficient cells decreased more or less, compared with those in the normal cells.in the normal cells.

In order to investigate the antiotoxic effect of red ginseng extract on serum protein of mouse treated with methyl mercury playing a role as toxic contaminant in ecosystem, variations of the serum protein contents, electrophoretic patterns, and blood components were studied. Mice were divided into 3 groups: Control, group I treated only with methyl mercury, and group II treated together with methyl mercury and red ginseng extract. The total serum protein content of the control group was 5.8g/dl and those of groups I and II were slightly decreased as compared with the control. The control group showed 11 serum protein fractions and groups I and II showed 10 fractions except prealbumin. The amounts of albumin, ${\alpha}_1-$, ${\alpha}_2-$ globulin fractions were decreased and those $\beta$-, $\gamma$-globulin fractions were increased in groups I and II. The amount of each serum protein fraction in group II showed approximately the same level as the control. The hematocrit value and the number of white blood cells of groups I and II were increased, whereas the number of red blood cells showed the decrease as compared with the control.

본 연구에서는 약콩(Glycine soja Siebold et Zucc.) 분획 추출물의 미백효능을 관찰하기 위해 B16F10 멜라노마 세포에서 TRP-1 (tyrosinase related protein-1), TRP-2 (tyrosinase related protein-2), 티로시나제 발현을 평가하였다. 그 결과 약콩 분획 추출물 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 2.0 mg/mL 농도에서 82% 이상의 높은 세포생존율을 나타내었다. ${\alpha}$-melanocyte stimulating hormone (${\alpha}-MSH$)을 처리한 B16F10 멜라노마 세포에 약콩의 EtOAc 분획 추출물을 처리한 결과 티로시나제 발현이 감소되었으며 TRP-1, TRP-2 단백질 발현이 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 약콩 분획 추출물이 멜라닌생합성과 관련되는 단백질의 발현을 감소시켜 피부 미백효능을 나타내는 것으로 기대할 수 있다.

여러가지 육가공품(肉加工品)중 특정 단백질 원료의 첨가여부를 판정하여 변조식품(變造食品)을 검출하는 한 방법으로서, 각종 육류단백질, non-meat protein, 어육(魚肉)가공품을 대상으로 disc SDS-Poly acrylamide gel electrophoresis의 사용 가능성을 실험하였다. Total protein fraction에 대한 전기영동 결과 복잡하고 많은 band를 보여 각 시료에 고유한 특성을 찾아보기 어려웠다. Low salt-soluble protein fraction에서는 total protein fraction 에서 보다 band 수가 상당히 감소함을 보였고 각 단백질 원료에 대하여 보다 고유한 band pattern을 나타내었다. Acetone-insoluble protein fraction 에서는 non-meat protein의 경우 육류단백질과 상당히 다른 경향을 나타내었고. 소세지 원료의 가열처리에 의하여 단백질의 band수와 양이 감소하였다. 따라서 적당한 단백질 추출조건(抽出條件)을 설정하여 전기영동을 실시하면, 특정(特定) 단백질을 첨가한 변조식품의 검출이 가능해질 것으로 생각된다.

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is known to cause porcine enzootic pneumonia (EP), an important disease in swine production. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of sonicated protein fractions of M. hyopneumoniae on inflammatory response and gene expression in the murine alveolar macrophage MH-S cell line. The effects of sonicated protein fractions and intact M. hyopneumoniae on the gene expression of cytokines and iNOS were assessed using RT-PCR. The Annealing Control Primer (ACP)-based PCR method was used to screen differentially expressed genes. Increased transcription of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, COX-2, and iNOS mRNA was observed after exposure to the supernatant (SPT), precipitant (PPT), and intact M. hyopneumoniae protein. A time-dependent analysis of the mRNA expression revealed an upregulation after 4 h for IL-6 and iNOS and after 12 h for IL-1β and TNF-α, for both SPT and PPT; the fold change in COX-2 expression was less. A dose- and time-dependent correlation was observed in nitrite (NO) production for both protein fractions; however, there was no significant difference between the effects of the two protein fractions. In a differential gene analysis, PCR revealed differential expression for nine gene bands after 3 h of stimulation — only one gene was downregulated, while the remaining eight were upregulated. The results of this study provide insights that help improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of and macrophage defenses against M. hyopneumoniae assault, and suggest targets for future studies on therapeutic interventions for M. hyopneumoniae infections.

In order to investigate the effects of red ginseng extract to methyl mercury toxicities in mice, the serum lipoproteins, tissure protein patternsm and growth rates were studied. Animals wee divided into 3 groups of the control, group I treated with methyl mercury chloride only, and group II treated together with methyl mercury chloride and red ginseng extract. In serum lipoprotein fractions of group I, beta lipoprotein fraction was increased and pre-beta lipoprotein fraction was decreased in comparision to those of the control. However, there was almost no difference in quantities of serum lipoprotein fractions between the control and group II. Total pretein contents of groups I and II were increased in liver and those of groups I and II in the kidney were decreased. However, in comparison to group I, total protein contents of group II in the liver and kidney were similar values with those of the control. Percentage of tissue protein fractions between control and group I in the liver and kindey showed considerable difference. On the other hand, the percentage of protein fractions of group II approximated to that of the control. Daily average growth rate of body weight in group II was similar to the control, but that of group I was decreased significantly in comparison to the other 2 groups.

Effects of the protein fraction of Panax ginseng on chicken embryonic skeletal muscle cells cultured with a decfiient medium were studied. The protein fraction was further fractionated into four groups according to the molecular weight; larger than 10,000 dalton(fraction A), between 5,000 and 10,000 dalton(fraction B), between 1,000 and 5,000 dalton(fraction C), between 500 and 1,000 dalton(fraction D). According to the microscopic observation, all four protein fractions at the concentration of $10{\sim}100{\;}{\mu}g/ml$ showed the tendency to stimulate the growth and differentiation of the muscle cells. The activity of acetylcholinesterase in muscle cells was significantly elevated by the protein fraction A at the concentration of $100{\mu}{\;}g/ml$. Protein fractions B,C and D significantly enhanced the synthesis of RNA in the muscle cells. The synthesis of DNA in muscle cells was significantly enhanced by protein fractions A,B and C.

We analyzed total protein (TP), albumin (AL), aspartic aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), urea nitrogen (UN), creatinine (CRE) and serum protein electrophoretic fractions in sera of rural elderly patients to evaluate the health status in rural elderly patients. We observed that the frequencies of patients showed lower level of total protein, albumin, and both total protein and albumin than them of reference range were 20.3%, 22.8% and 19.0%, respectively. The rates of patients showed higher level of AST, ALT, both of AST and ALT, UN, creatinine and both of UN and creatinine than them of reference range were 33.8%, 40.0%, 30.0%, 17.7%, 15.2% and 7.9%, respectively. Comparison of protein fractions of each patient to reference range showed that 77.2% of patients showed normal in all of patterns. Few of patients showed abnormal pattern in albumin (13.6%), ${\alpha}1-globulin (0.0%),\;{\alpha}_2-g10bulin(1.1%),\;{\beta}-globulin(1.9%)\;and\;{\gamma}-globulin(6.2%)$. These data suggest that many of rural elderly patients may suffer from heart, liver and kidney diseases. The serum protein fractions are not typical criterion to evaluate the disease, but production of proteins in rural elderly patients may be affected by liver disease and kidney disease.
