In this paper, the influences of adrenergic neuronal blockades of different mode: guanethidine and ${\alpha}$-methyl-para-tyrosine on the changes induced by carbon tetrachloride $(CCl_4)$ of hepatic total lipid, glycogen, and lipid peroxide contents and serum lactic dehydrogenase activity were investigated in male mice. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) The hepatic total lipid and lipid peroxide contents and serum lactic dehydrogenase activity were markedly increased by $CCl_4$, but hepatic glycogen content were decreased. 2) The hepatic total lipid and lipid peroxide contents and serum lactic dehydrogenase activity were not significantly changed by guanethidine(20mg/kg) or ${\alpha}$-methyl-para-tyrosine (5 mg/kg) injection. 3) The increase of hepatic total lipid induced by $CCl_4$ was inhibited by the pretreatment of guanethidine or ${\alpha}$-methyl-para-tyrosine, and the increase of hepatic lipid peroxide content induced by $CCl_4$ was slightly inhibited by them. But the decrease of hepatic glycogen content and the increase of serum lactic dehydrogenase activity induced by $CCl_4$ were not affected by them.

Seventy percent ethanol extracts were prepared from 6-year-old fresh, white and red ginseng cultivated in Kangwha, and administered orally into rats for the comparison of their effects. And their effects on the production of lipid peroxide in the livers of ethanol-administered rats were measured. Red ginseng administered group showed the largest body weight increase. However, fresh, white, red ginseng extract administered group showed no significant change in concentration of total lipid, triglyceride and free cholesterol in serum. White and red ginseng extract administeration decreased blood-sugar levels significantly. Lipid peroxide content in livers of white and red ginseng administered groups was decreased significantly. Red ginseng administered group showed greater decrcase in lipid peroxide content than that of white ginseng administred group. The increase of lipid peroxide content in the livers of ethanol-administered group was inhibited by administration of fresh, white, and red ginseng extract. And the strongest-inhibitory action was observed in red ginseng administered group. Therefore, it is supposed that red ginseng has the most powerful antiaging effect.

To study the nutritional value of warty sea squirt, Styela clava, which is one kind of urochoda and it has been used as special seafood stuffs by Korean, the seasonal variations of nutrient was investigated. The moisture content was ranged from 83.6% to 86.8% in experimental period. Maximun glycogen content showed up in June (3.7g/100g sample). The protein(N$\times$6.25) and lipid content varied with glycogen whereas ash content was not changed remarkably, showing 2.8$\pm$0.3%. Predominant minerals in edible portion and integuments were sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium in order. Predominant constitutiional amino acids were asparagine, glutamic acid, taurine, aspartic acid, lysine and glycine and amino acids occupied 50% of the total amino acid. Porportion of nonpolar lipid to total lipid increased from April to early June while polar lipid level decreased. The neutral lipid was composed of triglyceride(59.32%) and free sterol(23.52%), and followed by diglycerides, monoglycerides, esterified sterols and hydrocarbon, free fatty acid. The phospholipid was mainly composed with phosphatidyl choline(49.7%), and phosphatidyl ethanolamine(33.0%). The major fatty acids of the total lipid in warty sea squirt were C20 : 5(17%), C22 : 6(13.76%), C16 : o(13.91%) and C16 : 1(12.52%).

The effects of dietary cellulose on the lipid metabolism in albino rats were observed, especially the effects of dietary cellulose from three different sources; cereal, vegetable and pure-cellulose. The results were summarized as follows. 1. Dietary cellulose from rice bran and vegetable resulted in lowering of reserved lipid in the body and the effect of rice bran was remarkable as compare to that of vegetable. 2. But the fatty acids composition in serum, liver, gastrocnemius, small intestine and epididymal fat pad was unchanged by dietary cellulose. This means the effect of dietary cellulose was only to change the body fat in quantify and not in quality. 3. Cellulose from rice bran increased serum cholesterol content and maintained medium level of serum total lipid. Cellulose from vegetable decreased serum total lipid and cholesterol content. Pure-cellulose decreased also serum total lipid and cholesterol content but the effect was not as low as vegetable cellulose. 4. It need to be further investigated on the different effects of cellulose from three sources on serum cholesterol content, particularly the increasing effects of rice bran.

This study was performed to examine the effect of excess vitamin A feeding on lipid profile and vitamin A content of rats. 12 male Sprague-Dawley rats. weighing 114.1$\pm$0.9g, were divided into control and excess vitamin A group, and fed experimental diet for 6 weeks. In the excess vitamin A group, the level of vitamin A was 400, 000 1.U./kg diet(100 times of standard level). It was observed that vitamin A excess group had higher levels of plasma total lipid, total cholesterol, and trighlyceride and lower HDL ratio, indicating a high risk to coronary heart disease. In the liver, total CHOL and TG content were also high, and fatty liver was produced by excess Vitamin A. Vitamin A contents of organs were higher when excess vitamin A was given. These results suggested that excess vitamin A could be a dietary factor increasing the lipid contents of plasma and liver. Therefore, it could be said that vitamin A megadose can be one of the risk factors to coronary heart disease.

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the antioxidant effect of nitrite on total, neutral, and polar lipids and fatty acid composition in laboratory-cooked ground pork. Muscle samples (Biceps femoris) were analyzed using Iatroscan, gas chromatography, phosphorus content, and TBARS value. The total and neutral lipid contents of muscle were higher in nitrite-untreated meat (0 ppm) than in nitrite-treated meat (100 ppm) but the reverse was observed for polar lipid contents. The results for neutral lipids showed a similar trend when compared with total lipids. Polyunsaturated fatty acids contents of total, neutral and polar lipid in 100 ppm treated meat were higher than that of 0 ppm. The phosphorus content was higher in 100 ppm meat than in 0 ppm but the reverse was observed for TBARS value. These results showed that the addition of 100 ppm nitrite to ground pork resulted in a remarkable antioxidant effect during refrigeration storage.

This study was undertaken to determine the effects of fish oil supplementation with low dose on the lipid content and fatty acid composition of breast milk. Among 18 lactating women who were exclusively breast-fed their babies, 6 were in control group and 12 were in fish lil groups. The subjects in fish oil groups were supplemented with 1.96g/d or 3.92g/d of fish oil for 2 weeks from 10 to 12 weeks of postpartum. All subjects consumed their usual diet at home. Breast milk samples were collected at the final day of experiment. By fish oil supplementation, the concentrations of triglyceride, cholesterol, free fatty acid and phospholipid as well as total lipid in breast milk tended to increase, but not significant. There was no dose-dependent response. The fatty acid composition of breast milk was not changed by fish oil supplementation. These results suggest that low dose of fish oil supplementation may increase of lipid content, but does not affect on the fatty acid composition of breast milk.

This study was conducted to investigate the synergic effect of dietary selenium and methionine levels on hepatic lipid metabolism in ethanol treated rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats were fed diets containing three levels of methionine(0,3 and 9g/kg diet) with or without selenium(0.45mg/kg diet). Ethanol was administered with 25%(v/v) ethanol orally at the same time once a day in ethanol group and isocalori sucrose was administered to the control group. The rate were sacrificed after 5 and 10 weeks of feeding period. Glutathione content was decreased by ethanol treatment and significantly increased in proportion to level of dietary methionine and was higher in selenium deficiency group than that of selenium admin-istration group. Lipid peroxide content was significantly increased in deficiency of both methionine and selenium(LMet-Se+EtOH) group. Total lipid triglyceride and cholesteol contents in liver were increas-ed and phospholipid content was decreased in ethanol treated group and ethanol treatment accelerated those increment and decrement in methionine deficiency(LMt) group and excessive methionine admin-istration(HMet)group.

In this study, we examined the effects of different water activities (Aw: 0.3, 0.5, and 0.8) on the lipid composition and oxidation of wheat flour after 28 days of storage in the dark at $60^{\circ}$C. The lipid content of the flour was 2.7%, and had decreased significantly (p<0.05) at the end of the storage period. Decrease in monoacylglycerol and increase in free fatty acids were observed, however, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylinositiol were not detected after storage. Phosphatidylehtanolamine was more stable than phosphatidylcholine during the dark storage of flour. The flour lipids consisted of palmitic (18%), stearic (1%), oleic (14%), linoleic (63%), and linolenic (4%) acids, and the relative content of linolenic acid decreased after 28 days of storage. The conjugated dienoic acid content of the flour lipid had increased due to lipid oxidation during dark storage. Hydrolysis of neutral lipids and glycolipids, and lipid oxidation, were higher in the flour stored at Aw 0.8 than in the flour stored at Aw 0.3 or 0.5.
