  • 본 논문의 목적은 benfuracarb 원제(90.2%)에 함유된 불순물의 glutathione-S-transferase와 amidase에 대한 저해 특성과 해당 불순물의 구조를 밝히는데 있다. Benfuracarb 원제, 유효성분 및 불순물은 glutathione-S-transferase(GST)를 효과적으로 저해하였으나, 그 저해력은 GST 효소 저해제인 ethacrynic acid의 저해력보다는 낮았다. 즉, GST에 대한 benfuracarb 원제, 유효성분 및 불순물의 $I_{50}$은 각각 $9.7{\times}10^{-4}M,\;>1.0{\times}10^{-3}M,\;1.8{\times}10^{-4}M$이었으나, ethacrynic acid의 $I_{50}$$1.7{\times}10^{-5}M$이었다. Benfuracarb 원제, 유효성분 및 불순물은 amidase를 저해하였는데, 이들의 효소저해력은 iprobenfos의 저해력($I_{50},\;8.2{\times}10^{-7}M$)보다는 낮은 $6.0{\times}10^{-5}M,\;4.3{\times}10^{-4}M,\;7.6{\times}10^{-5}M$이었다. Benfuracarb 원제에는 4종의 불순물(IM $1{\sim}4$)이 검출되었는데, 이들 중 IM 2와 3은 GST와 amidase의 활성을 저해하였던 반면, IM 4는 효소활성을 저해하지 않았다. 이들 불순물 중 효소활성 저해특성을 갖는 IM 2와 3을 IR, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, LC-MS를 이용하여 구조를 분석한 결과, IM 2는 ethyl-N-isopropylamino propionate로, 그리고 IM 3은 ethyl-N-isopropyl-N-(chlorosulfenyl) aminopropionate로 확인되었다.

  • 식이성단백이 methanethiol에 의한 간기능에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 검토코자 흰쥐를 저단백식이(LP : casein 7%) 및 고단백식이 (HP : casein 20%)로 1개월간 성장시킨 뒤 methanethiol을 투여한 다음, 간무게, 혈청 ALT 활성을 측정하여 간기능 정도를 두 군간에 비교하였다. 동시에 이에 대한 원인을 규명하는 일환으로 간조직 중 glutahione함량과 glutathione 포함효소의 일종인 glutathione S-transferase (GST)활성을 측정하여 다음과 같은 실험 결과를 얻었다. Methanethiol 투여로 인한 대조군에 대한 간무게와 혈청 ALT활성 증가율은 LP군이 HP군보다 높았으며, 간 glutathione함량과 간 GST활성이 HP군 보다 LP군이 낮게 나타났다. 이상 성적을 종합해 볼 때 methanethiol에 의한 간 독성은 식이 중 단백함량감소에 비례해서 증가되며 이는 LP군이 HP군 보다 methanethiol해독에 관여하는 간 glutathione함량과 GST활성의 감소에 기인되기 때문인 것으로 생각된다.

  • Distributions of physiological inhibitors of a tau-type pumpkin glutathione S-transferase(CmGSTU3) have been investigated in different organs of pumpkin plants, including the onion bulb and water hyacinth root. Inhibitory effects were observed in alcoholic extracts of all plant parts, but the extracts prepared from the roots of either water hyacinth or pumpkin plant showed the highest effect on CmGSTU3 toward 1-chloro-2,4- dinitrobenzene(CDNB). Results of various chromatographies indicated that a number of inhibitory substances were present in the alcoholic extract of each plant organ. Some macromolecules in the plant extracts exhibited inhibitory effects; however, the extracts might contain a large number of unknown low-molecular-weight inhibitory substances. Some of the low-molecular-weight inhibitors in water hyacinth root extract showed characteristics fluoresce under UV light.

  • Glutathione S-transferase (28GST) with molecular mass of 28 kDa is an anti-oxidant enzyme abundant in Clonorchis sinensis. In adult C. sinensis, 28GST was localized in tegumental syncytium, cytons, parenchyma, and sperm tails examined by immunoelectron microscopy. C. sinensis 28GST was earlier found to neutralize bio-reactive compounds and to be rich in eggs. Accordingly. it is suggested that 28GST plays important roles in phase II defense system and physiological roles in worm fecundity of C. sinensis.

  • The effects of the methanol extract of the leaves of Brassica juncea and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, major compound isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of this plant on hepatic lipid peroxidation and drug-metabolizing enzymes, were evaluated in rats treated with bromobenzene. The extract and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ of oral administration did not show any significant effects on activities of aminopyrine N-demethylase and aniline hydroxylase, enzymes forming toxic epoxide by bromobenzene as well as on glutathione content. However, both methanol extract and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ significantly recovered the decreased activities of glutathione s-transferase and epoxide hydrolase, and also reduced the lipid peroxide level in rats treated with bromobenzene. From the results, the protections of this plant against bromobenzene-induced hepatotoxicity are thought to be via enhancing the activities of epoxide hydrolase and glutathione s-transferase, enzymes removing toxic epoxide, and reducing the lipid peroxide level.

  • In order to gain further insight on the relationship between structure and function of glutathione S-transferase (GST), the six active-site mutants, R13T, K44T, Q51A, Q64A, S65A, and D98A, of human GST P1-1 were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by affinity chromatography on immobilized GSH. The active-site mutants showed marked differences in substrate specificity. The substitution of Gln51 with threonine resulted in a drastic decrease in the specific activities to <10% of the wild-type value. The substitution of Arg13 with threonine resulted in more decreased specific activity toward cumene hydroperoxide and in the $I_{50}$ values of S-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) glutathione and benanstatin A. These results suggest that the substitution of Arg13 with threonine changes the conformation of the active site to increase the affinity for the product or electrophilic substrate. Lys44 seems to be in the vicinity of the H-site of hGST P1-1 or may contribute to some extents to the electrophile binding.

  • Tamoxifen citrate (TAM), is widely used for treatment of breast cancer. It showed a degree of hepatic carcinogenesis. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the antioxidant capacity of green tea (Camellia sinensis) extract (GTE) against TAM-induced liver injury. A model of liver injury in female rats was done by intraperitoneal injection of TAM in a dose of $45\;mg\;Kg^{-1}\;day^{-1}$, i.p. for 7 successive days. GTE in the concentration of 1.5%, was orally administered 4 days prior and 14 days after TAM-intoxication as a sole source of drinking water. The antioxidant flavonoid; epicatechin (a component of green tea) was not detectable in liver and blood of rats in either normal control or TAM-intoxicated group, however, TAM intoxication resulted in a significant decrease of its level in liver homogenate of tamoxifen-intoxicated rats. The model of TAM-intoxication elicited significant declines in the antioxidant enzymes (glutathione-S-transferase,glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase) and reduced glutathione concomitant with significant elevations transaminase) levels. The oral administration of 1.5% GTE to TAM-intoxicated rats, produced significant increments in the antioxidant enzymes and reduced glutathione concomitant with significant decrements in TBARS and liver transaminases levels. The data obtained from this study speculated that 1.5% GTE has the capacity to scavenge free radical and can protect against oxidative stress induced by TAM intoxication. Supplementation of GTE could be useful in alleviating tamoxifen-induced liver injury in rats.
