The Present study was conducted to investigate the effects of Ginseng extract on the tension-area curve for stearic acid monolayer. At the same time, the effects of Ginseng extract on osmotic and mechanical fragility of human red cells and histamine release from rabbit leukocytes were studied, The results are summarized as follows. 1. The Ginseng alcohol extract was found to expand liquid expanded phase of stearic acid monolayer, thus it is speculated that this agent may be acting as a surface active substance. 2. Osmotic hemolysis was inhibited by the Ginseng alcohol extract and the same effect was also observed in the presence of Ginseng saponin. However, the Ginseng alcohol extract was found to decrease hematocrit ratio of the RBC suspension, therefore, the inhibition of the osmotic hemolysis by this agent may be secondary effect to the reduced cell volume. 3. The mechanical hemolysis was also inhibited by the Ginseng alcohol extract but the inhibition was independent of changes in hematocrit ratio. 4. Histamine release from rabbit leukocytes was significantly increased in vitro in the presence of the Ginseng alcohol extract.(p<0.05)

In order to evaluate the effectiveness of KOK(kyungokko) experimentally used for longevity hematology, erythrocyte hemolysis and TBA(thiobarbituric acid) were measured, after LKOK(low concentration KOK) and HKOK(high concentration KOK) were administrated to mice pretreated with AAPH (2,2'-Azobis(2-amidinopropane), hydrocholoride, free radical inducer. In hematology WBC and hemoglobin were reduced significantly, while the number of platelet was significantly incresed as compared with control. Erythrocyte hemolysis by damage of free radical on cell membrane of RBC and TBA(Thiobarbituric acid) were significantly inhibited in both sample groups as compared with control. These results suggest KOK had antioxidant effect.

The present study was investigated fatty acid composition of the phospholipid in the RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction after vitamin E and/or insulin treatment to evaluate the effect of vitamin E on the oxidative stress in STZ-treated rat and BB rat. Results obtained through the experiments were summarized as follows; 1. Effect of vitamin E and/or insulin treatment in STZ-treated rat 1) In the insulin treated group and the combination treated groups of vitamin E with insulin, body weights were increased compared to STZ-treated rat(STZ control group). Especially it was more significantly increased in the combination treated group of high dose vitamin E with insulin. 2) The composition of fatty acids of the phospholipid in RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fractions was shown a decreased C16:1, C18:1, C20:4 and an increased C16:0, C18:0, C18:2 in STZ control group compared to normal control group. In RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fractions after vitamin E with insulin treatment in STZ-treated rat, effect on the composition of fatty acids of the phospholipid was shown the result of a decreased C16:0, C18:0, C18:2 and an increased C16:1, C18:1, C20:4. 3) Hemolysis rate of the RBC to $H_2O_2$ was increased in the STZ control group and it was decreased below the hemolysis level of normal control group by vitamin E treatment. 2. Effect of vitamin E and/or insulin treatment in BB rat 4) Only in microsomal fraction, fatty acid composition was different between insulin treatment group and vitamin E with insulin treatment group. It was increased C16:0 and C18:1, and decreased C18:0 and C18:2 in vitamin E with insulin treatment group: But C20:4 was not different in two groups. These results suggest that the combination treatment of vitamin E and insulin could prevent the oxidative change of fatty acids in P-lipid of the RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction in STZ-treated rats and BB rats.

천연에서 유래한 항산화 및 항용혈 소재개발을 위해 복분자 에탄올 추출물의 생리활성 효능 평가를 실시하였다. 복분자를 에탄올 추출한 후, 획득한 추출물을 섬유아세포주인 HS68에 처리하여 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 SOD 유사 항산화 효능을 평가하였다. 또한 Sprague Dawley 렛트 적혈구 세포에 과산화수소로 산화를 유도한 후 추출물의 항용혈 효능을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 추출물은 농도 의존적으로 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 SOD 유사 활성이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 렛트 적혈구를 이용한 항용혈 평가에서는 과산화수소를 단독으로 처리한 양성대조군보다 추출물을 처리한 군에서 항용혈율이 농도 의존적으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 이들 결과는 복분자 추출물이 항산화효능과 항용혈 약용 식물 소재로서의 가능성을 내는 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives : To develop a natural antioxidant and anti-hemolytic agents, we investigated the effects of ethanol extracts of Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos. Methods : Aerial parts of Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos were extracted with 80% ethanol. Antioxidant activity of Carpesii Fructus or Farfarae Flos extract was evaluated by employing three different assays, i.e., 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-suphonic acid) diammonium (ABTS) scavenging and reducing power activities. Also, anti-hemolytic activity of Carpesii Fructus or Farfarae Flos extract was determined using [2,2'-azobis (2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH)]-induced hemolysis, glutathione (GSH) depletion and malondialdehyde (MDA) formation in normal rat red blood cells (RBC) or plasma. Results : The extracts obtained from Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos dose-dependently increased the scavenging activity on DPPH- or ABTS-induced radicals and the reducing power activities. Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos were similar to the scavenging activity and the reducing power of butylated hydroxy anisole effect at high concentration ($1,000{\mu}g/mL$). RBC oxidative hemolysis and plasma MDA formation induced by AAPH were significantly suppressed by the extracts of Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos in a dose-dependent manner. Also, Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos extracts prevented the depletion of cystosolic antioxidant GSH in RBCs. Carpesii Fructus generally had better than the free radical scavenging activity, the reducing power and anti-hemolytic effects of Farfarae Flos. Conclusions : These results suggest that Carpesii Fructus and Farfarae Flos may have value as the potential antioxidant and anti-hemolytic medicinal plant.
