We have investigated the effect of MeOH extract of the adventious root culture of Panax ginseng on hyperlipidemic rats induced by fat-rich diet. We also analyzed and compared the content ginsenoisdes of the cultured ginsengs by HPLC. After oral administration of the MeOH extract to hyperlipidemic rats for four weeks, the variables including body weight, cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglyceride levels in serum were measured. One of the cultured ginseng roots (CBN3) decreased cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and increased HDL-cholesterol levels in serum. HPLC analysis demonstrated that CBN3 contains more $Rb_1$ and Rd ginsenosides than any other cultured ginsengs and cultivated ginseng. These results suggest that CBN3 with high contents of $Rb_1$ and Rd may be useful in lowering blood cholesterol.

Hyperlipidemia is one of dangerous factors causing the arteriosclerosis. For the study of Cheunggansoyosan-gamibang( CGSYS) on antihyperlipidemic effect, we had fed mice divided to three groups (basal diet, hyperlipidemic diet, hyperlipidemic diet + CGSYS), and observed the change of weight, total cholesterol. triglyceride, HDL-cholesterol. LDL-cholesterol. sGOT, sGPT on the serum per every 7days for 6weeks. Also to compensate for the results above, we had tested rat liver. The results of this Study were obtained as fallows ; 1. Cholesterol change on blood was decreased by CGSYS. 2. Total cholesterol. triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol were significantly decreased by CGSYS. 3. HDL-cholesterol was significantly increasd by CGSYS. 4. sGPT was significantly decreased by CGSYS. 5. sGOT was not changed by CGSYS. 6. In case of supplying CGSYS. fatty degeneration was not observed in liver portal area. This study suggests that Cheunggansoyosan-gamibang was significant effect with hyperlipidemia.

The purpose of this study was designed to observe the effects of Zizyphus jujuba seed extract on the concentrations of the lipids and blood glucose in the S.D. rats fed the experimental diets for 4 weeks. Concentrations of total cholesterol, atherosclerotic index, LDL, LDL-cholesterol, free-cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, triglyceride (TG), phospholipid (PL) and blood glucose in serum were significantly higher in the cholesterol administration groups (group 2 (cholesterol+water), group 3 (cholesterol+Zizyphus jujuba seed extract)) than those in the control group (group 1, basal diet+water). But the concentrations of total cholesterol, atherosclerotic index, LDL, LDL-cholesterol, free-cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, TG, PL and blood glucose in serum ware remarkably lower in the group 3 than those in the group 2. In the ratio of HIDL-cholesterol concentration to total cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol concentration, Zizyphus jujuba seed extract administration group was higher percentage than in the group 2. The activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine amino-transferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in serum were rather lower in the Zizyphus jujuba seed extract administration group (group 3) than in the cholesterol diet group (group 2). From the above research, Zizyphus jujuba seeds were effective on the improvement of the blood glucose, lipid compositions in serum of dietary hyperlipidemic rats. And particularly, Zizyphus jujuba seeds were more effective as a therapeutic regimen for the control of metabolic derangements in adult disease.

The effects of Artemisia princeps var orientalis(mugwort), Circium japonicum var ussuriense (Unggungqui) on cadiovascular system in hyperlipidemic rats were investgated. Thirty rats devided into 5 experimental groups, were fed with the diet contained 1% chlesterol, 0.25% sodium cholate, 10% coconut oil and 5% lard by the same method of previous paper1). Contractile and relaxation responses in the isolated artria and thoracic aortae were measured and the morphological changes of the aortic endotherium from the rats were inspected. The responses of the right atrial to isoproterenol were significantly lower value in Ungungqui powder diet group(UP) and mugwort powder diet group(MP) than the control. The contraction force by injectin of phenylephrine and calcium in isolated thoracic aortae was significantly low value in the UP and the MP groups compaired to the control. The relaxation rate by acetylcholine in isolated thoracic aortae represented significantly higher value in UP than control. The morphological changes of endothelial cell suface was smallest in UP and the damage of endothelium by retarded in MP. Although Ungungqui and mugwort extract diet groups(UE, ME) were advanced, those were less than control.

To demonstrate anti-hyperlipidemic activity of the 19${\alpha}$-hydroxyursane-type triterpenoid (19${\alpha}$-HUT)-rich fraction, this fraction was prepared from the extract of Rubus crataegifolius leaves. This fraction was found to have anti-hyperlipidemic effect in a high fat diet-induced rat model from the observation of reduction of abdominal fat pad weights, atherogenic index and hypercholesterolemia at 30 and 60 mg/kg (p.o.) The 19${\alpha}$-HUT fraction was subjected to SiO$_2$, ODS, and/or Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography to yield a new triterpenoid (1) called pomolic acid ester along with nine known triterpenoids which are all 19${\alpha}$-HUTs: euscaphic acid (2), tormentic acid (3), 23-hydroxytormentic acid (4), kaji-ichigoside F$_1$ (5), rosamultin (6), niga-ichigosides F$_1$ (7) and F$_2$ (8), suavissimoside F$_1$ (9) and coreanoside F$_1$ (10). The structure of compound 1 was established as 28-O-formyl-3,19-dihydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid on the basis of 2D-NMR spectroscopic data and mass spectrum. Compound 1 was isolated for the first time from natural sources.

Effect of the ingestion of porphyran extracted from Porphyra yezoensis on calcium, magnesium and potassium contents in serum and tissue was investigated using hyperlipidemic and hypercholesterolemic rats. The contents of calcium magnesium and potassium in serum of rats fed porphyran for four weeks were higher than those of the control group. The contents of calcium and potassium were decreased with increasing a porphyran level while magnesium content was increased. Liver calcium contents in an $1\%$ porphyran group were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those in the control group, and magnesium contents in a $10\%$ porphyran group were higher than those in the control group. Kidney calcium and magnesium contents in rats fed porphyran were significantly (p<0.05) high compared with the control group. However, potassium content in kidney was Increased as a porphyran level was increased in diet. Spleen calcium and potassium contents were significantly lower in the porphyran groups than those in the control group. Rats fed the $5\%$ porphyran diet had higher magnesium content in spleen than any other diets. The results showed that diets supplemented with several porphyran levels had variable effects on the contents of calcium, magnesium and potassium in serum and tissue of hyperlipidemic rats.

Increased consumption of fresh vegetables that are high in polyphenols has been associated with a reduced risk of oxidative stress-induced disease. The present study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant effects of spinach in vitro and in vivo in hyperlipidemic rats. For measurement of in vitro antioxidant activity, spinach was subjected to hot water extraction (WE) or ethanol extraction (EE) and examined for total polyphenol content (TPC), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), cellular antioxidant activity (CAA), and antigenotoxic activity. The in vivo antioxidant activity of spinach was assessed using blood and liver lipid profiles and antioxidant status in rats fed a high fat-cholesterol diet (HFCD) for 6 weeks. The TPC of WE and EE were shown as $1.5{\pm}0.0$ and $0.5{\pm}0.0mg$ GAE/g, respectively. Increasing the concentration of the extracts resulted in increased ORAC value, CAA, and antigenotoxic activity for all extracts tested. HFCD-fed rats displayed hyperlipidemia and increased oxidative stress, as indicated by a significant rise in blood and liver lipid profiles, an increase in plasma conjugated diene concentration, an increase in liver thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) level, and a significant decrease in manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity compared with rats fed normal diet. However, administration of 5% spinach showed a beneficial effect in HFCD rats, as indicated by decreased liver TBARS level and DNA damage in leukocyte and increased plasma conjugated dienes and Mn-SOD activity. Thus, the antioxidant activity of spinach may be an effective way to ameliorate high fat and cholesterol diet-induced oxidative stress.
