The effect of addition in different amounts of leek(4, 8, 12% respectively) during fermentation of kimchi was investigated. Fermentation characteristics such as pH, acidity and total reducing sugars as well as microbiological properties were determined. During fermentation, pH was more slowly lowered in kimchi added with leek than in control and titrable acidity of these kimchi was lower than that of control. Viable cells of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria in these kimchi were higher than that of control during fermentation. Content of total reducing sugars was higher than that of control. Three kinds of reducing sugars such as fructose, glucose and galactose were detected and the dominant one appeared to be fructose. These results suggested that addition of leek seems to retard fermentation of kimchi due to their anti microbial actvity.

To evaluate hepatoprotective effects of G009, an hepatoprotective agent which was extracted from the mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum IY009, we were, studied using $CCl_4$-and galactosamine-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. The ratio of liver weight to body weight, the value of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(GOT) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) activities, the change of a lipids in serum, and the inhibitory activity of malondialdehyde (MDA) formation in serum and liver homogenate were determined in rats. G009 was not significantly changed of the ratio of liver weight to body weight and the content of lipids in serum, but reduced the serum GOT and GPT values in $CCl_4$-and galactosamine-induced hepatotoxicity in rat. Especially, protective effect of G009 on rat hepatic injuries induced by galactosamine was significantly appeared. $CCl_4$ increased markedly the formation of lipid peroxides in the liver homogenate, and serum. The increase of lipid peroxides by $CCl_4$-induced hepatotoxicity was markedly reduced by the treatment with G009. These results suggest that the hepatoprotective effects of G009 may be correlated with its anti-lipid peroxidative activity, therefore, it may be potential agent for hepatic disease.

In this study, the anti-lipidperoxidative effects of G009, a polysaccharide extracted from Ganoderma lucidum IY009, was determined in ascorbic acid-$Fe^{2+}$-adenosine 5-diphosphate-intoxicated rat. In a model of ascorbic acid-Fe$^{2+}$-adenosine 5-diphosphate-induced hepatotoxicity in rat, G009 exhibited anti-lipidperoxidative effect in rat liver homogenate, and that malondialdehyde values of the liver homogenate inhibited from 48.1% to 74.8% in comparison to controls (p<0.05). The malondialdehyde formation in serum inhibited 66.5% at 100 mg/kg of G009. Also, serum levels of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase and glutamic pyruvic transaminase in peroxidizer-induced rats treated with G009 was decreased compared with control. Especially, the formation of lipid peroxides in serum was related to glutamic pyruvic transaminase levels. These results suggest that G009 has a protective effect on ascorbic acid-$Fe^{2+}$-adenosine 5-diphosphate-induced hepatic injury through an inhibition of lipid peroxidation in liver.r.

Lactobacillus acidophilus BK13과 Lactobacillus paracasei BK57 균주로부터 얻은 세포, 배양상등액 및 박테리오신 용액의 anti-Helicobacter pylori 활성과 위장상피세포에 대한 세포독성을 평가하였다. 실험균주를 MRS 배지 상에서 30시간 배양한 결과, L. acidophilus BK57 ($126.8{\pm}7.9mM$) 보다 L. paracasei BK57 ($155.9{\pm}7.9mM$)가 더 많은 양의 유산을 생산하였다. 또한, BK13 균주의 최대 박테리오신 활성(128 AU/ml)은 $37^{\circ}C$에서 30시간 배양 후 관찰되었으나, 이는 BK57의 활성(256 AU/ml) 보다는 낮았다. BK13 및 BK57 균주의 살아있는 세포를 H. pylori와 혼합 배양한 결과, 유산균의 초기균수에 의존하여 H. pylori의 저해효과가 나타났다. 게다가 BK13과 BK57로부터 얻은 배양상등액과 박테리오신은 H. pylori의 성장을 억제할 뿐만 아니라 위장상피세포에 대한 부착력과 urease 활성도 저해하였다. 한편, 이러한 균주들이 생산한 유산은 위암세포에 대한 세포독성 효과가 대조구보다 유의한 수준으로 높게 나타났다. 따라서 BK13과 BK57 균주의 항균물질은 위장질환의 원인균인 H. pylori를 저해시키는데 효과적이므로 이들 유산균은 H. pylori 감염으로부터 위장을 보호하는데 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

Background : To investigate the effect of Hwanggeumjackyak-tang (HJT) on Dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) induced ulcerative colitis. Methods : The experimental animals were divided into three groups; group 1, normal group(Normal); group 2, DSS-induced colitis and untreated group(UT+DSS); group 3, DSS-induced colitis and HJT 200 mg-treated group(HJT200+DSS). We evaluated cytotoxicity after HJT administration and confirmed the anti-inflammatory effect by histological changes in the intestine and genetic analysis of mucosal cells after HJT administration for each group. In addition, microbiological weapons and metabolites in faeces were examined, and the correlation between gut microbiome and metabolites was also investigated. Result : HJT was not observed to be cytotoxic, even at relatively high concentrations, and was effective in protecting the barrier and preventing intestinal inflammation by suppressing the increase in mucus secretion and the expression of inflammatory factors in mucosal cells. HJT treatment affected the increase in the amount and diversity of the gut microbiome in faeces and the increase in metabolites thought to be involved in alleviating inflammation in the gut. Conclusion : This study demonstrates the therapeutic potential of HJT in ulcerative colitis. Further studies should be carried out to confirm our findings.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is the causative agent of a mosquito-borne encephalitis and is transmitted to human via persistently infected mosquito vectors. Although the virus is known to cause only acute infection, there were reports that showed neurological sequelae, latent infection in peripheral mononuclear cells, and recurrence of the disease after acute encephalitis. Innate resistance of certain cell lines, abnormal SN1 expression of the virus, and anti-apoptotic effect of cullular bcl-2 have been suggested as probable causes of JEV persistence even in the absence of defective interfering (DI) particles. Although possible involvement of DI particles in JEV persistence was suggested, neither has a direct evidence for DI presence nor its molecular characterization been made. Two questions asked in this study are whether the DI virus plays any role in JEV persistent infection if it is associated with and what type of change(s) can be made in persistently infected cells to avoid apoptosis even with the continuous virus replication, DI-free standard stock of JEV was infected in BHK-21, Vero, and SW13 cells and serial high multiplicity passages were performed in order to generate DI particles. There different-sized DI RNA species which were defective in both structural and nonstructural protein coding genes. Rescued ORFs of the DI genome maintained in-frame and the presence of replicative intermediate or replicative form RNA of the DI particles confirmed their replication competence. On the other hand, several clones with JEV persistent infection were established from the cells survived acute infections during the passages. Timing of the DI virus generation during the passages seemed coincide to the appearance of persistently infected cells. The DI RNAs were identified in most of persistently infected cells and were observed throughout the cell maintenance. One of the cloned cell line maintained the viral persistence without DI RNA coreplication. The cells with viral persistence released the reduced but continuous infectious JEV particle for up to 9 months and were refractory to homologous virus superinfection but not to heterologous challenges. Unlike the cells with acute infection these cells were devoid of characteristic DNA fragmentation and JEV-induced apoptosis with or without homologous superinfection. Therefore, the DI RNA generated during JEV undiluted serial passage on mammalian cells was shown to be biologically active and it seemed to be responsible, at least in part, for the establishment and maintenance of the JEV persistence in mammalian cells. Viral persistence without DI RNA coreplication, as in one of the cell clones, supports that JEV persistent infection could be maintained with or without the presence of DI particles. In addition, the fact that the cells with JEV persistence were resistant against homologous virus superinfection, but not against heterologous one, suggests that different viruses have their own and independent pathway for cytopathogenesis even if viral cytopathic effect could be converged to an apoptosis after all.
