This study evaluated the protective effect of Chungkookjang (CKJ) extract, a Korean traditional fermented soybean product made from Bacillus species in rice straw and boiled soybean, and one of its main flavonoids, genistein, against Trp-P-1 induced cytotoxicity and DNA damage in HepG2 cells. CKJ and genistein exhibited protective effect against Trp-P-1 induced cytotoxicity and Trp-P-1 induced DNA single strand breaks. CKJ and genistein inhibited Trp-P-1 induced CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 transcription in HepG2 cells. Our results indicated that CKJ and genistein have the protective effect against Trp-P-1 induced cytotoxicity and DNA damage. Via inhibiting expression of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2. CKJ can be used as a promising functional food material that prevents the genotoxicity induced by carcinogens produced by the heat treatment of foods such as heterocyclic amines (HCAs) that cause genomic instability.

As a part of the host cell development for a amplified recombinant trp operon, $aroP^-$ mutation was introduced in a E. coli host strain. $aroP^-$ mutation was induced by transposon Tn10 and transduced into the E. coli host cell by bacteriophage P1Kc. The effect of $aroP^-$ mutation on the excretion of tryptophan in E. coli $trpR^{-ts}/ColE_1 -trp^+$ cells was investigated. Mutant lacking the general aromatic transport system was resistant to ${\beta}-2-thienylalanine\;(2{\times}10^{-4}\;M)$, p-fluorophenylalanine $(2{\times}10^{-4}M)$, or 5-methyltryptophan $(2{\times}10^{-4}\;M.)[^3H]-tryptophan$ uptake of the $aroP^-$ mutant strain was reduced considerably as compared with $aroP^+$ counterpart. The rate of $[^3H]-tryptophan$ uptake of the $aroP^-$ mutant strain treated with $NaN_3(3{\times}10^{-2}\;M)$ was much less affected than that of $aroP^+$ counterpart. The $aroP^-$ transductants increased the tryptophan excretion from E. coli $trpR^{-ts}/ColE_1 -trp^+$ four times more than $aroP^+$ counterpart.

조리가공 중 생성되는 주요 발암성 이환방향족아민(heterocyclic aromatic amine)인 Trp-P-1 및 Trp-P-2가 human 및 rat keratinocytes에 대해 나타내는 세포 독성을 colony expansion법의 의해 조사, 비교하였다. 특히 Trp-P-2는 human keratinocytes에 대해서는 독성을 나타내지 않은데 반해 rat keratinocytes(계대수 2-5)에 대해서는 독성을 나타내는 선택성을 나타내었다. 이러한 Trp-P-2의 종(species)간 독성감수성 차이가 대사 효소계 활성이나 mutagenic activation상의 차이에 기인되는지를 살펴본 결과, CYP4501As 및 독성감수성 차이가 크게 나타났던 human 및 rat keratinocytes의 microsome에서 거의 같았다. 이와 같은 결과는 CYP4501A1 및 CYP1B1의 mRNA의 발현정도를 northernblot에 의해 살펴보았던 결과에서도 일치하였다. 반면 Trp-P-2의 대사활성화 및 해독화에 관여하는 효소인 N.O-acetyltransferase(NAT)활성은 rat keratinocytes보다 human keratinocytes에서 높았다. 일반적으로 독성물질의 해독화에 관여하는 glutathione S-transferase(GST) 또한 rat keratinocytes보다 human keratinocytes에서 높게 나타났다. Trp-P-2가 mutagenic metabolite로 활성화되는 정도를 salmonella microsome microsuspension assay로 살펴본 결과, 독성 감수성 차이가 크게 나타났던 human 및 rat keratinocytes간의 활성은 비슷한 것으로 나타났다. DNA 및 단백질 adduct형성능의 경우, human 및 rat keratinocytes간 DNA adduct형성능에는 차이가 없었고, 단백질 adduct형성능의 경우만 Trp-P-2에 대한 독성감수성 정도가 컸던 rat keratinocytes가 다른 세포들에 비해 크게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, CYP1A- 또는 CYP1B1-관련 마이크로솜 효소활성이나 mutagenic activation은 human 및 rat keratinocytes간에 나타났던 독성 감수성의 차이를 설명할 수 없으며, 해독화에 관여하는 효소활성이 종간 관찰되었던 독성 감수성의 차이에 더 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 보인다.

The inhibitory effects of rice extract on mutagenicity induced by 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido [4,3-b]indole(Trp-P-1), 3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido [4,3-b]indole(Trp-P-2), sodium azide(SA), 2-nitrofluorene(2NF), mitomycin C(MMC), aflatoxin $B_1(AFB_1)$ and 4-nitroquinoline oxide(4-NQO) were investigated using Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay, SOS chromotest and spore rec-assay. In Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay, methanol extract from brown rice (Illpumbyeo, Japonica variety) showed the highest inhibitory effect among other extracting solvent including hexane, chloroform and water. Methanol extract showed stronger inhibitory effect, above 85%, on indirect-acting mutagens(Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2 and $AFB_1$) than those on direct-acting mutagens(4-NQO, 2NF). In SOS chromotest, methanol extracts showed $77.6{\sim}88.9%$ effects on SOS function induced by Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2, $AFB_1$ and 4-NQO. In spore rec-assay, methanol extracts inhibited the mutagenicity induced by $AFB_1$ and MMC. As the concentration of methanol extract increased, inhibitory effect on mutagenicity increased but reached at steady state as inhibition rate of 90% when the concentration was above 5 mg/plate. In inhibitory effects of methanol extracts by various rice varieties, all of 11 varieties turned out to have inhibitory effect on mutagenicity. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in inhibitory effect of methanol extracts between brown and white rice against Trp-P-1, but showed difference (p<0.05) against 4-NQO.

The antimutagenic activity of resveratrol on the mutagenicity induced by Trp P-1 (3-amino-1,4-dime-thyl-5H-pyrido{4,3-b}indole) was studied using the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and 100. Trp P-1 showed strong mutagenecity in S. typhimurium TA98, but was higly decreased mutagenecity in S. typhimurium TA100. This result suggests that the mutagenecity of Trp P-1 can be mainly induced by the DNA lesions causing frame shift. Resveratrol itself did not show antibacterial effect upon 300 $\mu\textrm{g}$/assay. Resveratrol showed the strongest inhibitory effect with dose dependent manner on the mutagenicity induced by Trp P-1. The inhibition rates of resveratrol at concentration of 2, 10, 25, 50, 100, 300 $\mu\textrm{g}$/assay were 13%, 37%, 52%, 65%, 81%, 89%, respectively.

On the mutagenicity induced by 3-amino-l,4-dimethyl-5-H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol (Trp-P-1) and 2-aminotluorene (2-AF), the antimutagenic effects of edible muntain herb juices were examined by the Ames assay using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. Juices prepared from aralia bud, small water dropwort, mugwort, roots of belltlower and sedum didn't have mutagenicity. Most of sample juices showed the antimutagenicity. Especially, juices prepared from aralia bud, small water dropwort and mugwort were found to possess strong antimutagenic effects. Sedum was moderatly effective and root of belltlower had little effect on mutagenicity caused by Trp-P1 and 2-AF. The experimental results with TA98 were similar to those with TA100 in the antimutagenicity test of edible mountain herb juices. In this study, antimutagenicity on Trp-P-1 was more effective than that on 2-AF.

The objective of the this study was to investigate the binding capacity and removal ability of lactic acid bacterial strains obtained from Korean soybean paste for mutagenic heterocyclic amines (HCAs) formed during cooking of protein-rich food at high temperature. Among 19 strains identified by carbohydrate fermentation and 16S rRNA sequencing, the live cell or cell-free culture supernatant of Lactobacillus acidophilus D11, Enterococcus faecium D12, Pediococcus acidilactici D19, L. acidophilus D38, Lactobacillus sakei D44, Enterococcus faecalis D66, and Lactobacillus plantarum D70 inhibited the mutagenesis caused by either 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b] indole (Trp-P-1) or 3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b] indole (Trp-P-2) in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The bacterial cells of the isolated strains showed greater binding activity than the pure cell wall, exopolysaccharide, and pepetidoglycan. The carbohydrate moieties of the cell wall or protein molecules on the cell surface have a significant role in binding Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2, since protease, heating, sodium metaperiodate, or acidic pH treatments significantly (P<0.05) reduced the binding efficacy of the tested bacteria. Addition of metal ions or sodium dodecyl sulfate decreased the binding ability of E. faecium D12, L. acidophilus D38, and E. faecalis D66. Therefore, the binding mechanisms of these strains may consist of ion-exchange and hydrophobic bonds. Especially, the high mutagen binding by L. acidophilus D38 and L. plantarum D70 may reduce the accumulation or absorption of Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2 in the small intestine via increased excretion of a mutagen-bacteria complex.

Extracts of six seaweeds obtained from solvents such as water, methanol, hexane and ethyl ether have been tested for desmutagenic activities in the Salmonella typhimurium/microsome systems. Water extracts obtained from tangle, sea-tangle, and gompi were moderately effective on the mutagenicity of Trp-P-2 and aflatoxin $B_1$. Methanol extracts of sea-tangle and gompi were effective against Trp-p-2, and all samples of methanol extracts were very effective from 1.0mg to 2.0mg per plate on the mutagenicity of MeIQ and aflatoxin $B_1$. Hexane extracts of tangle, ses-tangle, gompi and sea-straghorn were very effective on the mutagenicity of Trp-p-2, MeIQ and aflatoxin $B_1$ except laver and green laver. Ethyl ether extracts of gompi and sea-straghorn were most effective from 1.0mg to 2.0mg per plate on the mutagenicity of Trp-P-2. Especially, ethyl ether extracts of all samples were great effective on the mutagenicity of MeIQ and aflatoxin $B_1$.

In vitro antimutagenic activity of methanol extract from brrwn rice and its physico-chemical characteristics were investigated using Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay and SOS chromotest. Methanol extracts of brown rice were not mutagenic compared with direct and indirect, mutagenicities of 4NQO (4-nitroquinoline oxide), 2NF(2-nitrofluorene), Trp-p-1(3-Amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido-[4,3-b]indole), and Trp-p-2(3-Amino-1-methy-5H-pyrido-[4,3-b]indole). Antimutagenic activity against the indirect mutagenicties induced by Trp-p-1, Trp-p-2 and AFB1 (aflatoxin B1) was found in methanol extract. Even though antimutagenic activity showed dose-dependent, it remained constant at inhibition rate ranging 60~90% when the concentration was abov 3mg/plate in the S. typhimurium reversion assay and 0.2~0.6 mg/assay in the SOS chromotest. The antimutagenic activity of the methanol extracts was stable at various pH (2, 7 and 10), temperatures (60, 80 and 10$0^{\circ}C$)and heation times (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 min at 10$0^{\circ}C$).

The desmutagenic effects of ${\alpha}$-hydroxycarbonyl compounds, such as glyceraldehyde, glycolaldehyde, dihydroxyacetone, furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, maltol, acetol and acetoin and ${\alpha}$-dicarbonyls, such as diacetyl, glyoxal, methyl glyoxal and 2, 3-pentanedione were investigated against the mutagenic heterocyclic amines, such as Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2, Glu-P-1, Glu-P-2 and IQ. Most of the carbonyl compounds suppressed the mutagenicity of heterocyclic amines for S. typhimurium TA98, ${\alpha}$-dicarbonyl compounds showing a higher desmutagenic effect than ${\alpha}$-hydroxycarbonyl compounds. Among the ${\alpha}$-hydroxycarbonyl compounds, glyceraldehyde, glycolaldehyde and dihy-droxyacetone showed more effective desmutagenicity, and diacetyl among the ${\alpha}$-dicabonyl compounds had the highest desmutagenic effect. These carbonyl compounds alone also showed mutagenicity to S. typhimurium TA100 without S-9 mix. The reaction of carbonyl compounds with mutagenic heterocyclic amines also eliminated the mutagenicity of the former for S. typhimurium TA100.
