1990년 4월부터 1992년 2월까지 인제대 부속 서울 백병원과 상계 백병원에 내원한 환자 중 대변에서 분선충(Strongwloides stercoralis)의 rhabditoid 유충 또는 기생세대 자충이 검출된 분선충 감염증 9례를 보고하고자 한다. 환자들은 50대와 70대 사이의 남자 7명 및 여자 2명으로 퇴행성 관절염으로 스테로이드계 약물을 장기 복용하였거나 소화기 장애, 고혈압, 간질환 정신장애 등 다양한 질환을 동반하고 있었다. 관절염, 소화기 장애 등으로 입원한 57세 여자 환자 1례에서는 albendazole 및 mebendazole 투여 4-5일 째의 설사변에서 분선충의 기생세대 자충 (parasitic females) 220마리가 회수되었다. 이 환자는 관절염에 대한 스테로이드 장기 복용으로 면역기능이 저하된 상태에서 자가감염된 중감염(hyperinfection) 예로서 우리 나라에서 기생세대 자충이 확인된 세 번째 증례이기도 하다.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of dietary ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid on decreasing the plasma lipid levels and the thrombotic activity in rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats (B.W 120 g) were fed a experimental diet containing 5% lard (46.05% saturated fatty acids) , corn oil (51.36% linoleic acid) , evening primrose oil (EPO,72.80% linoleic acid and 9.16% ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid) or borage oil (BO,40.29% linoleic acid and 24.25% ${\gamma}$-liolenic acid) for 30 days. Although there were no significant differences in the food intake among the groups, the body weight gain of the BO group was significantly lower than that of the other groups. The bleeding time of the BO group was significantly longer than that of the other groups. There were significantly differences in the whole blood clotting time among the groups except for the EPO and corn oil groups, where the whole blood clotting time of the BO group was the highest among the groups, and that of the lard group was the lowest. The plasma triacyglyceride (TAG) , total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations were the lowest in the BO group, but highest in the lard group, and there were significant differences among the groups. The plasma HDL-C concentrations were in the following order: BO, EPO, corn oil and lard groups and there were significant differences among the groups. The excretions of fecal neutial steroids and acidic steroids of the BO group were the highest among the groups, and there were significant differences compared to the other groups. The results suggest that dietary EPO and BO containing ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid has an antithrombotic activity, and inhibits the increasing of plasma TAG, TC and LDL-C concentrations compared to lard, which contains saturated fatty acids, or corn oil, which contains linoleic acid.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of Cnidi rhizoma (CR) water extract on fat accumulation in fatted rats induced by the oral high fat administration for six weeks. Total cholesterol, neutral lipid and epididymal fat pad of CR groups were lower than the control group. On the other hand, high density lipoprotein(HDL) -cholesterol was somewhat higher In CR than In the control group. In addition, the same result as the above case was obtained when examining adipose for liver and epididymal fat components. During the feeding experiment, level of low density Lipoprotein(LDL) and very low density Lipoprotein (VLDL) increased while HDL was decreased. The degree of LDL and VLDL was decreased however, and HDL was, increased In CH groups as compared with the control group. Insulin and cortisol were higher than the control group, due to the fat accumulation. Experiment group showed the increased excretion as compared with the control group, in the excretion of bile acid and neutral sterol. The liver of the control group observed by the light microscope appeared to the fatty liver, but CR groups showed some improvement of the fatty liver. Based on the above results, it was shown that It Is possible to improve fat accumulation induced, by high fat dietary through using the oral administration of Cnidi rhizoma boiling extract solutions.

흰쥐에 cholesterol(0.5%) 및 A. keiskei(5%)를 급여 한 후 혈장 및 간장 지질대사 및 분변 중의 neutral steroids 및 담즙산 배설에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 혈장 cholesterol 농도는 식이중 cholesterol 첨가에 의해 현저히 증가되었으며, A. keiskei 급여시 유의적으로 감소하였다. 식이중 cholesterol 첨가는 혈장 HDL-cholesterol 함량을 유의적으로 감소시키는 반면 LDL-cholesterol을 크게 증가시켜 동맥경화지수를 높였다. A. keiskei 급여는 혈장 LDL-cholesterol의 유의적으로 감소시켰으며, 동맥경화지수도 cholesterol을 급여하지 않은 군에서 0.21, cholesterol 급여 군에서 0.52를 보여 A. keiskei를 급여하지 않은 각각의 대조군에 비하여 유의적 감소를 보여 A. keiskei가 혈장지질 개선효과를 보였다. A. keiskei 급여는 또한 cholesterol 급여와 관계없이 혈장 triglyceride 함량을 유의적으로 감소시키는 결과를 보였으나, 혈장 인지질 함량에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. A. keiskei 급여는 간조직의 total cholesterol, free cholesterol, cholesteryl ester 및 phospholipid 함량에는 영향을 미치지 않았으나, triglyceride 함량은 식이중 cholesterol 첨가와 관계없이 유의적으로 감소시켰다. A. keiskei는 cholestanol, 총 neutral steroid 및 담즙산의 배설을 증가시켰다. 이와 같은 결과로 보아 A. keiskei에 의한 혈장 cholesterol의 감소는 cholesterol 흡수의 감소 및 cholesterol을 cholestanol으로의 전환과 담즙산으로의 배설이 증가됨에 일부 기인하는 것으로 사료된다.
