만성 알코올 섭취는 산화적 스트레스 및 치매와 같은 신경퇴행성질환을 발병시킨다. 본 연구는 홍화씨 추출물의 in vitro 항산화 활성과 ethanol로 손상을 유도한 신경교세포에서의 보호 효과를 확인하기 위해 수행되었다. 홍화씨 추출물은 50, 100, 250, 500 ㎍/mL의 농도에서 농도 의존적으로 in vitro에서 1,1-diphenyl-2-prcrylhydrazy (DPPH), hydroxyl radical (·OH), superoxide radical 및 nitric oxide radical 소거능이 증가하였다. 특히 DPPH 및 ·OH radical 소거능 측정 결과, 각각 500 ㎍/mL, 100 ㎍/mL의 농도에서 80% 이상의 radical 소거능을 나타내었다. 홍화씨 추출물의 신경교세포 보호 효과를 확인하기 위해, C6 신경교세포에 500 mM ethanol을 처리하여 산화적 손상을 유도하였다. Ethanol을 처리한 C6 신경교세포는 세포 생존율의 감소 및 reactive oxygen species (ROS) 생성량이 증가하여 세포 손상을 나타내었다. 반면 홍화씨 추출물을 처리하였을 때 세포 생존율 증가 및 ROS 생성 억제를 통해 ethanol로 유도된 신경교세포 손상에 대한 보호 효과를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해, 홍화씨는 알코올로 유도된 신경교세포의 산화적 스트레스에 대한 보호 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

The stability of yellow and red dyes prepared from safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) in aqueous solution and in solid state was investigated. External factors such as light irradiation and temperature on the stability were examined during storage. Changes in absorbance of dye solutions and the color changes of fabrics dyed after long time storage were measured. Also, color reproducibility during storage was investigated by dyeing test on various fabrics. Red colorant in aqueous solution was very unstable to light, resulting that about 40% of absorbance were lost in 12hrs. The absorbance of yellow dye solutions was not decreased within 84hrs. In aqueous medium, yellow dye was much more stable than carthamin. Both dyes are relatively stable for long storage when they are stored in solid state compared to when in aqueous solution. Color changes are marginal in both dyes.

We previously reported the hepato-protective effect of butanol soluble fraction of methanolic extract of Carthamus tinctorius L. Semen on carbon tetrachloride induced hepatotoxicity. In this study, the active component from the butanol soluble fraction was isolated by column chromatographic separation using Silica gel and Sephadex LH -20 and identified by spectroscopic methods such as Mass, $^1$H - NMR and $\^$13/C-NMR. The hepato-protective effect of the isolated active component on the CCl$_4$-induced liver damaged rats has been evaluated by performing blood chemical analysis and biotransformational enzyme analysis.

Antioxidative compounds contained in roasted safflower seeds were investigated. Six phenolic compounds, N-feruloylserotonin, N-(p-coumaroyl) serotonin, matairesinol, 8'-hydroxyarctigenin, acacetin 7-Ο-β-D-glucoside(tilianine) and acacetin were isolated and identified from the extract of seeds. The inhibitory effects of six phenolic compounds on 1,1-dipheny1-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical and lipid peroxidation induced by H₂O₂/FeSO₄in rat liver microsomes were determined. Two serotonins showed more potent DPPH radical scavenging activity, and a stronger inhibitory effect on the lipid peroxidation than that of α-tocopherol. In addition, acacetin and matairesinol also considerably inhibited lipid peroxidation, while 2-hydroxy-arctigenin and tilianine were inactive. These results suggest that phenolic compounds, including serotonins, lignans and flavonoids in the roasted safflower seeds can be used as potential dietary natural antioxidants.

본 연구는 5가지 경북약용작물(홍화자, 향부자, 형개, 위유, 작약)의 항산화와 항염증 효과에 대해서 검증하였다. 추출은 70% 에탄올에서 추출하였다. 항산화 활성을 측정하기 위해 총플라보노이드, 폴리페놀 함량을 측정하였고, 추출물의 소거활성은 a-a-Diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl ($DPPH{\cdot}$), 2,2-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid ($ABTS{\cdot}$), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), superoxide anion 저해활성으로 측정하였다. 홍화자 추출물에서 높은 총 폴리페놀과 플라보노이드 함량과 뛰어난 $DPPH{\cdot}$, $ABTS{\cdot}$, FRAP, superoxide anion 소거활성을 나타내었다. 또한, 홍화자 추출물에서 가장 높은 NO 생성 저해 활성을 나타냈다. 그 결과 홍화자 추출물은 항산화와 항염증 활성에 효과를 가진 기능성 소재로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

The chemical compositions of the seeds of the safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) plant were evaluated to determine possible compound having proliferative effects on human osteoblast cells. Three-[4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) test and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity were used to assess the effects of the isolates on the human osteoblast-like line (Saos-2). Activity guided fractionation led to the isolation of ALP activating lignin and alkaloid glycosides through the extraction of the seeds, solvent partitioning and repeated silica gel and octadecyl silica (ODS) column chromatographic separations. The data from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Mass (MS), and Infrared (IR) analyses enabled the determination of the chemical structure and characterization of two compounds as a tracheloside and an N-(p-coumaroyl)-serotonin mono-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside. These two compounds showed respectively $149.2{\pm}4.2$ and $138.9{\pm}3.5%$ ALP activity compared to the control when evaluated at a concentration of $100\;{\mu}g/mL$.

In order to develop new materials for the functional feed, the components of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) was studied. Chemical composition, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids of the seed and the flower of safflower were analyzed. The chemical composition of safflower seed was 3.48% (w/w) moisture, 17.10% crude protein, 30.10% crude fat, 6.11% crude ash and these of safflower flower was 7.47% moisture, 26.30% crude protein, 11.50% crude fat, 5.73% crude ash. Mineral contents of the seed were K 170.70ppm, P 14.82ppm, Ca 13.17ppm, Mg 7.83 ppm whereas these of the flower were K 64.99 ppm, P 49.90 ppm, Ca 10.43ppm. Other mineral contents were less than 7.00ppm in all parts. The composition of the amino acid were approximately as follow, the major amino acid in all parts were aspartic acid, leucine, glycine, and arginine, the contents of these were 12.17mg/g, 11.52mg/g, 8.27mg/g, 6.99mg/g, 4.86mg/g in the seed, 19.35mg/g, 31.67mg/g, 10.30mg/g, 9.06mg/g, 12.51mg/g in the flower, respectively. The mahor fatty acids in the all parts were linoleic acid (C아래첨자). The linoleic acid and the palmitic acid (C아래첨자) in the seed and the flower parts were 77.75% (w/w), 19.32% and 8.37%, 25.62% respectively. On the basis of chemical analysis, the safflower showed to have relatively high contents of crude protein and crude fat, minerals, polyunsaturated fatty acid as linoleic acid. These results suggested that safflower was found to be a useful material of natural health food for the functional food development.
