흡연은 활성 산소/질소종의 생성을 증가시켜 체내 산화적 스트레스를 증가시키고 폐의 염증을 유발한다. 이는 흡연자들의 체내 항산화 영양소들의 감소와 밀접한 관계를 가지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 항산화, 항염증 기능을 가진 비타민 E 중 식이에 많이 포함되어 있는 GT를 이용하여 흡연에 의한 항산화, 항염증 작용을 알아보기 위한 선행 연구로 고농도의 GT 식이가 혈액과 간, 폐의 AT, GT농도와 이들의 대샤산물인 CEHC 농도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고자 실시하였다. 연구 결과 고농도 GT 식이는 체내 혈액과 간, 폐 조직에 GT를 축적시키고 G-CEHC의 배설을 증가시켰다. 흡연은 대조군의 혈액과 폐 AT 농도는 증가시켰지만, 고농도 GT군의 혈액과 폐의 GT농도와 간의 G-CEHC의 농도를 감소 시켰다. 이러한 변화는 흡연에 의한 산화적 스트레스 상태에서 각기 다른 기능을 가진 조직의 요구량에 따라, 폐의 이용률을 높이기 위해 혈액으로 운반되는 양을 증가시키고 폐로의 운반을 임시적으로 증가시켜 조직의 AT, GT 농도를 선택적으로 조절하고 GT의 생체 이용률의 증가 때문이라 사료된다. 하지만 정확한 기전에 대한 연구들이 부족한 실정이므로 고농도의 GT 식이가 흡연에 의해 유도된 체내 산화적 스트레스와 폐의 염증 반응에 긍정적인 효과를 알아보기 위한 후속 연구가 절설히 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

Objective: Heat stress (HS) triggers oxidative stress and respiratory alkalosis in pigs. The objective of this experiment was to study whether a short-term supranutritional amount of dietary vitamin E (VE) can mitigate oxidative stress and respiratory alkalosis in heat-stressed pigs. Methods: A total of 24 pigs were given either a control diet (17 IU/kg VE) or a high VE (200 IU/kg VE; HiVE) diet for 14 d, then exposed to thermoneutral (TN; $20^{\circ}C$, 45% humidity) or HS ($35^{\circ}C$, 35% to 45% humidity, 8 h daily) conditions for 7 d. Respiration rate and rectal temperature were measured three times daily during the thermal exposure. Blood gas variables and oxidative stress markers were studied in blood samples collected on d 7. Results: Although HiVE diet did not affect the elevated rectal temperature or respiration rate observed during HS, it alleviated (all p<0.05 for diet${\times}$temperature) the loss of blood $CO_2$ partial pressure and bicarbonate, as well as the increase in blood pH in the heat-stressed pigs. The HS reduced (p = 0.003) plasma biological antioxidant potential (BAP) and tended to increase (p = 0.067) advanced oxidized protein products (AOPP) in the heat-stressed pigs, suggesting HS triggers oxidative stress. The HiVE diet did not affect plasma BAP or AOPP. Only under TN conditions the HiVE diet reduced the plasma reactive oxygen metabolites (p<0.05 for diet${\times}$temperature). Conclusion: A short-term supplementation with 200 IU/kg VE partially alleviated respiratory alkalosis but did not reduce oxidative stress in heat-stressed pigs.

The concentrations of $\alpha$-tocopherol in the brain, liver, and serum were studied with and without saponification process between control and vitamin E supplemented rats. Young rats, 80-120g body weight, were fed control and vitamin E supplemented diets, ad libitum, for four weeks. $\alpha$-Tocopherol concentrations were determined by high pressure liquid chromatography. The $\alpha$-tocopherol concentration per wet weight base in the brain tissue was significantly lower than that in the liver. Vitamin E supplementation had no effect on brain $\alpha$-tocopherol levels in contrast to the significant increase in lover $\alpha$-tocopherol concentration with and without saponification is significantly greater in the brain than in the liver or serum. Further study is needed to clarify the nature of interaction or /and binding between $\alpha$-tocopherol and the complex membrane system in brain tissue. It can be speculated from this and other studies that the metabolism and the nature of interaction of $\alpha$-tocopherol with the complex membrane system in brain tissue rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids seems different from that in liver tissue or serum.

Objective: The present work was undertaken to evaluate the effects of storage time, choline chloride, and high concentrations of Cu and Zn on the kinetic behavior of vitamin degradation during storage in two vitamin premixes and four vitamin-trace mineral (VTM) premixes. Methods: Two vitamin premixes (with or without 160,000 mg/kg of choline) were stored at 25℃ and 60% humidity. Besides, four VTM premixes were used to evaluate the effects of choline (0 vs 40,000 mg/kg) and trace minerals (low CuSO4+ZnO vs high CuSO4+ZnO) on vitamin stability in VTM premixes stored in room, and the VTM premixes were stored in room temperature at 22℃. Subsamples from each vitamin and VTM premix were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months. The retention of vitamin A (VA), vitamin D3 (VD3), vitamin E (VE), vitamin K3 (VK3), vitamin B1 (VB1), vitamin B2 (VB2), vitamin B3 (VB3), vitamin B5 (VB5), and vitamin B6 (VB6) in vitamin premixes and VTM premixes during storage was determined. The stability of vitamins in vitamin premixes and VTM premixes was determined and reported as the residual vitamin activity (% of initial) at each sampling point. Results: The effect of choline on VK3 retention was significant in vitamin premixes (p<0.05). The negative effect of storage time was significant for the retentions of VD3, VK3, VB1, VB2, VB5, and VB6 in vitamin premix (p<0.05). For VTM premixes, negative effect of storage time was significant (p<0.05) for the losses of vitamin in VTM premixes. Choline and high concentrations of Cu and Zn significantly increased VA, VK3, VB1, and VB2 loss during storage (p<0.05). The supplementation of high concentrations of Cu and Zn significantly decreased the concentrations of VD3 and VB6 (p<0.05) in VTM premixes at extended storage time. Conclusion: The maximum vitamin stability was detected in vitamin and VTM premixes containing no choline or excess Cu and Zn. The results indicated that extended storage time increased degradation of vitamin in vitamin or VTM premixes. These results may provide useful information for vitamin and VTM premixes to improve the knowledge of vitamin in terms of its stability.

Background: Cisplatin (CDDP) is one of the most active cytotoxic agents in the treatment of cancer. We investigated the effect of selenium (Se) with high dose vitamin E (VE) administration to prevent CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Materials and Methods: In this study, 40 female Wistar rats were randomly divided into five equal groups. The first group, which served as the control, was administered physiological saline (2.5 cc/day, 5 days) intraperitoneally (IP), while group A was administered cisplatin (6 mg/kg BW/ single dose) plus physiological saline IP. Groups B, C, D received IP five doses of Se (1.5 mg/kg BW), and a high dose of VE (1000 mg/kg BW) (Se-VE) in combination before, simultaneously, and after CDDP, respectively. The rats were sacrificed five days after CDDP administration. Plasma malondialdehide (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase, urea, creatinine levels, renal histopathological changes were measured. Results: The histopathological injury score, plasma levels of MDA, urea, creatinine were found to increase in group A compared to the control (p<0.05), while plasma levels of GSH-Px, GSH and catalase decreased (p<0.05). In contrast, plasma levels of MDA decreased (p<0.05) in groups B, C, D, which were treated with Se- VE, whereas levels of GSH-Px, GSH were found to increase only for group D (p<0.05). Plasma urea, creatinine levels improved in the treatment groups compared to group A (p<0.001). Histopathological changes caused by CDDP were also significantly improved after Se-VE treatment (p<0.05). Conclusions: Oxidative stress increases with CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Se-VE supplementation might thus play a role in the prevention of CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in patients.

식이 vitamin E 수준이 Cd 중독된 휜쥐 뇌조직 내의 지질과산화와 항산화계에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 체중 $60\pm5g되는$ Spraue-Dawley종 흰쥐 숫컷을 식이내 vitamin E 함량을 0, 40, 400mg/kg of diet로 나누어 각각 2주 및 4주간 사육한 후 체중 kg당 2.5mg Cd을 하루에 한번씩 4회 투여하여, 실험 종료 후 쥐를 희생시켜 뇌조직내의 SOD, GSH-Px, GST의 항산화 효소활성 및 지질과산화가를 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 전 실험기간 동안 체중변화를 관찰한 결과 대조군에 비해 실험군들이 모두 유의적으로 감소하였고, 식이 섭취량은 2주간 사육한 대조군과 각 실험군간에 차이가 없었으나, 4주간 사육한 대조군에 비해 Cd-0E군만이 유의적으로 낮았다. 식이 효율도 2주 및 4주 모두 대조군에 비해 실험군들이 모두 낮았다. 뇌, 간장 및 신장의 무게는 대조군과 실험군 간에 유의적인 차이가 없었다. SOD의 활성을 관찰한 결과 대조군에 비해 Cd-0E군이 유의적으로 낮았으나 Cd-40E와Cd-400E군과는 차이가 없었다. GSH-Px 활성은 대조군에 비해 실험군이 Cd-400E, 40E, Cd-0E순으로 낮았다. G57 활성을 측정한 결과는 대조군에 비해 Cd-0E, Cd-40E군에서는 유의적으로 낮았으며, Cd-400E와는 차이가 없었다. 뇌조직의 지질과산화가를 측정한 결과, 대조군에 비하여 Cd-0E, Cd-40E, Cd-400E 군은 각각 2.5배, 1.8배, 1.4배 증가하였다. 그리고 Cd-40E, Cd-400E는 Cd-0E군에 비해 각각 28.8%, 44% 지질과산화가가 각각 낮았다. 2주 및 4주 동안 실험구간의 효소활성 및 과산화지질 함량은 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로 Cd 중독된 흰쥐 뇌조직에서는 대조군에 비해 지질과산화 반응이 촉진되었으나 식이내 vitamin E의 적절한 첨가는 항산화계를 강화시킴으로써 뇌조직의 과산화적 손상을 완화시키는데 기여함을 알 수 있었다.

this study was conducted to examine the atherogenic effect of high cholesterol diet (experimental diet) that influences changes of lipoprotein cholesterol metabolism and arterial wall. Seven NewZealand white rabbits were fed control diet, an the other 7 rabbits 2% cholesterol diet for 10 weeks. Results obtained from this study are as follows: 1) High cholesterol diet resulted in a gradual increase of plasma total cholesterol level, reaching upto 1422 mg/dl at the seventh week. 2) CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) activity was significantly higher in high cholesterol group (64.9% at the 7th week) than control group (49.3% at the 7th week) during most of the experimental period except the 6th week. 3) The cholesterol supplementation induced fatty liver and a decrease of hepatic HMG-CoA reductase activities (2.1 moles vs. 0.3nmoles) compared to control group. 4) Bands of apo B-100 and apo E in plasma lipoprotein were thicker in high cholesterol-fed animals tan control animals as visualized by SDS-PAGE. 5) Oxidizability of plasma lipoproteins measured in vitro was greater in high cholesterol group tan control group, but vitamin E level higher in control group. 6) he effect of cholesterol feeding for 10 weeks also led to early fatty streaks in aortic intima. High cholesterol feeding was atherogenic to rabbits, an this seems to be mediated through elevated CETP activities that regulate plasma HDL cholesterol level and decrease an efficiency of reverse cholesterol transport in lipoprotein cholesterol metabolism. The enhanced oxidizability of plasma lipoproteins and lowered vitamin E level may also contribute to the formation of faaty streaks in aorta of cholesterol-fed rabbits.

본 연구에서는 알코올을 이용하여 만성위궤양 실험동물 모델을 확립하고 설정된 동물모델을 대상으로 비타민 E 투여 수준(결핍 0 mg/mL oil/day, 정상 1 mg/mL oil/day, 보충 10 mg/mL oil/day)에 따른 위궤양 치유효과를 살펴보고자 수행되었다. 비타민 E를 투여시킨 기간은 총 7일로서 위의 조직학적 검사, 혈청의 gastrin 농도, 위 조직의 histamine 농도, 위 조직 내의 항산화 효소인 GPx 활성도와 catalase 농도 및 MPO 활성도를 측정하였으며 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 만성군에서 식이섭취량과 15% 에탄올 식수섭취량에는 유의적인 차이가 없었으나 체중증가량은 비타민 E 결핍군에서 유의적으로 낮았다. 급성군에 비해 만성군에서 위 무게가 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 또한 급성군에서 다량의 출혈과 선상의 괴사가 나타났으며 비타민 E 결핍군 또한 약간의 출혈과 선상의 궤양이 남아있었으나 비타민 E 정상군과 보충군의 경우 출혈이나 궤양은 관찰되지 않았다. 혈청 gastrin의 경우 비타민 E 결핍군에서 유의적으로 높았으며 비타민 E 투여수준에 따라 유의적으로 낮아졌다. 또한 위 조직에서 histamine 농도는 급성군보다 만성군에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났지만 만성군에서 비타민 E의 투여수준에 따른 histamine 농도의 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 위 조직에서의 MDA 농도는 비타민 E 결핍군과 정상군에 비해 보충군에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났으며 급성과 만성유도에 따른 MDA 농도 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한 대표적인 항산화 효소인 GPx와 catalase의 경우 비타민 E 정상군과 보충군에서 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 위 조직에서의 MPO 활성도는 비타민 E 결핍군에 비해 정상군과 보충군에서 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 결론적으로 알코올로 유도한 만성위궤양 실험동물 모델에서 비타민 E의 보충은 위궤양 치유효과가 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 비타민 E 보충은 혈청 gastrin 농도를 감소시켜 위에서의 산 분비를 감소시키며 또한 위 조직 내의 MPO 활성도를 감소시켜 proinflammatory cytokine을 방출을 억제시키고 결과적으로 위 세포내로의 호중구 침투를 감소시켜 위궤양 치유과정을 촉진시키는 것으로 보인다. 따라서 비타민 E의 결핍상태보다 비타민 E를 보충하였을 때 빠른 위궤양 치유효과가 있는 것으로 사료되며, 평소 권장량을 충족시킬 수 있는 비타민 E의 충분한 식이섭취가 중요하다고 생각한다.
