i) total ginsenoside의 분리 시판백삼(900g)을 상법에 따라 처리, 조 saponin을 얻었으며 (24g) 이를 20(S)-protopanaxadiol을 얻는 원료로 사용하였다. ii) 20(S)-protopanaxadiol의 분리연구 본 연구에서 가장 중요한 단계는 20(S)-protopanaxadiol을 다량 얻는 것이다. 그러나 인삼 saponin을 산으로 가수분해하면 진성 aglycone 인 20(S)-protopanaxadiol이 얻어지지 않고 artifact sapogenol인 panaxadiol이 얻어진다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 sodium ethoxide의 ethanol 용액, sodium butoxide의 butanol 용액, sodium methoxide의 pyridine 용액, sodium methoxide의 DMSO 용액등의 조건에서의 가수분해를 검토한 결과 aprotic polar splvent인 DMSO용매중에서의 분해가 가장 좋음을 알았다. iii) ginsenoside Rh$_2$의 합성연구 Koenigs-Knorr 법에 의하여 bromosugar와 20(S)-protopanaxadiol의 glycosidation 반응결과 약 40%의 수득률로 합성됨을 확인하였다.

Ginseng (the root of Panax ginseng C. A. MEYER, Araliaceae) has been used for traditional medicine in China, Korea, Japan and other Asian countries for the treatment of various diseases including psychiatric and neurologic diseases as well as diabetes mellitus. So far, ginseng saponins (ginsenosides) have been regarded as the principal components responsible for the pharmacological activities of ginseng. Ginsenosides are glycosides containing an aglycone (protopanaxadiol or protopanaxatriol) with a dammarane skeleton and have been shown to possess various biological activities including the enhancement of cholesterol biosynthesis, stimulation of serum protein synthesis, immuno- modulatory effects and anti-inflammatory activity. Several studies using ginsenosides have also reported anti-tumor effects, particularly the inhibition of tumor-induced angiogenesis, tumor invasion and metastasis, and the control of phenotypic expression and differentiation of tumor cells.

Tissue factor (TF) is a cell surface receptor of coagulation factor Ⅶ and is the principal initiator of the vertebrate coagulation cascade. TF is found in high levels in some organs such as brain, lung and placenta, whereas blood monocytes, endothelial cells contain only trivial amount of TF when quiescent, and is stimulated to synthesize TF by infections or vascular lesions. TF is reported to be found in high levels in atherosclerotic plaques, cancer cells. TF activation in various cells in many infectious or immunologic diseases tells us the physiologic importance of TF. We screened many edible vegetables for TF inhibitor, by measuring the prothrombin time to detect the TF activity, and we picked Aster scaber to isolate the TF inhibitory substance. Aster scaber showed two kinds of anti thrombotic activity, one is TF inhibition and the other is elongation of plasma recalcification time. The anti thrombotic substances were found to be saponins which has echinocystic acid as aglycone.

The biologically active component of licoris(Glycyrrhizae Radix L.) is considered to be glycyrrhetinic acid, an aglycone of glycyrrhizin, on the basis of chemical and pharmacological studies. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of glycyrrhetinic acid on the hepatic morphine-6-dehydrogenase activity, which catalize morphine to morphinone. Morphine-6-dehydrogenase was further purified by centrifugation, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ fractionation, sephadex G-100, hydroxyapatite column. Hepatic morphine-6-dehydrogenase activity was significantly decreased by the treatment of glycyrrhetinic acid. When effect of glycyrrhetinic acid on the hepatic morphine-6-dehydrogenase was investigated in vitro, it was powerfully inhibited the enzyme activity with dose-dependent manner. From the above results, glycyrrhetinic acid inhibits hepatic morphine-6-dehydrogenase activity and decreases the morphine induced harmful side effects.

A new cycloartane glycoside (1) was isolated from the aerial part of Thalictrum uchiyamai Nakai (Ranunculaceae). On the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence, the aglycone structure of this compound was characterized as 116, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid, a new derivative of cycloartane triterpene. Also the oli-gosaccharide moiety of this glycoside were determined as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosyl- ($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranose by application of HMBC technoque. Consequently, the structure of compound 1 was elucidated as 29-O-${alpha}$-L-rhanmnopyranosy-($1rightarrow2$)-[${beta}$-D-xylofuranosyl-($1rightarrow6$)-${beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-16, 25-dihydroxy-3, 24-diacetoxy-9, 19-cycloartane-29-oic acid ester.

This study was performed to investigate the possibility of using three commercial bifidobacteria as a starter for soybean paste fermentation. In order to determine susceptibility to inhibition by high concentrations of salt in soybean paste, cell growth of three strains in sterilized soybean paste was analyzed. Bifidobacterium breve KCTC 5081 was the most resistant to salt, whereas Bifidobacterium bifidum KCTC 5082 showed low cell viability. Conversion efficiencies from glycoside isoflavone to aglycon isoflavone in soybean paste ranged from 11.3~28.6%, with Bifidobacterium longum KCTC 5734 the best strain. Therefore, B. longum KCTC 5734 may be used as a starter for Cheonggukjang fermentation, which is low-salt fermented soybean paste.

A new quaternary ammonium compound, hydrolyzed ginseng-sapoin quaternary (HGSQ), from hydrolyzed Korean ginseng-saponin and 2, 3-epoxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride has been developed as a conditioning agent for hair care products. This structure has the hydrophilic group from the introduced cationic and the hydrophobic group from the aglycone of ginseng saponin. Its properties: surface tension, conductivity, critical micelle concentration, eye irritation, sorption onto hair, force reduction (%) for 20% extension and moisture retention effect comparing with the commercial standards. Also half-head tests of HGSQ-containing shampoo were carried out to compare the conditioning effects in shampoos.

A procedure of $^3H$-radio labeling synthesis for the dammarane triterpene glycosides of Korean ginseng was established by using the ginsenoside $Rg_1$ as starting material. The protons in $C-{11}$ and $C_{13}$ of the aglycone moiety of the glycoside were exchanged with tritium by keto-enol tautomerization of 12-keto-ginsenoside $Rg_1$ which was prepared by partial acetylation, Sarett oxidation and saponification, producing nona-acetate, nonaside $Rg_1$. The acety1-ketone and 12-keto-derivative of ginsenotritated ketone was reduced by metallic sodium and isoproponol to produce the end product $^3H$-ginsenoside $Rg_1$ with 3% radio-chemical recovery in one experiment.

The estrogenic activity of 47 plant extracts was assessed by reporter gene assay using MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines stably transfected with luciferase reporter gene. The estrogenic activity of food extracts was expressed as 17${\beta}$-estradiol(E2) equivalent concentration(EEQ), the concentration of E2 that resulted in the same relative luciferase unit(RLU) of the food extract of 0.2mg/$m\ell$.(omitted)

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.
