This study was designed to evaluate the gastroprotective activity of cirsilineol in hydrochloric acid (HCl)/ethanol-induced gastric ulcer model. Cirsilineol was administered at the doses of 20 and 40 mg/kg in HCl/ethanol-induced rats. The gastroprotective ability was verified by determining the ulcer score, total acidity, hemoglobin, inflammatory cytokines, lipid peroxides, and enzymatic antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in gastric tissue and serum biochemical analysis. The results showed a favorable increase in the hemoglobin level, antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT), restored electrochemical balance (carbon dioxide & anion gap) while a noticeable decrease in ulcer index, total acidity, lipid peroxides, inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1 beta [IL-1β], IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha) in rats treated with the cirsilineol. The serum biochemical analysis on liver markers (alkaline phosphatases, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase), kidney markers (urea, creatinine, albumin, globulin, total protein), and lipid profile (triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, total cholesterol) were attenuated by cirsilineol treatment in rats. Histopathology showed enhanced gastric protection and preserved the integrity of gastric mucosa upon cirsilineol administration. These results ultimately suggest that cirsilineol has gastroprotective effects that prevent the development of gastric ulcer.

쇠고기내의 oleic acid(18:1)의 힘량은 고기의 향미와 다즙성에 영향올 미치며, 그 함량이 높으면 혈중 콜레스테롤을 낮출 수 있는 요인이 된다. 본 연구는 한우의 간 조직과 등심 조직에서 불포화지방산의 조성과 불포화지방산 합성효소의 mRNA 발현량의 차이를 비교분석하여 그 상호 관련성에 대해 조사하였다. 단일불포화지방산인 palmitoleic acid(16:1)와 oleic acid (18:1)의 조성은 등심 조직에서 총 지방산의 51%를 차지하고 있었으나, 지방대사가 활발한 간 조직에서는 22%에 지나지 않았다. 반면에 포화지방산인 palmitic acid(16:0) 와 stearic acid (18:0)의 조성비는 등심 조직과 간 조직에서 각각 37%와 58%'를 차지하였다. 이같이 단일불포화지방산의 조성은 조직간 현격한 차이가 나타나며, 조직내 stearoyl-CoA desaturase(SCD) 활성을 나타내는 포화지방산에 대한 불포화지방산의 비율인 불포화도(the desaturation index)를 살펴보면 등심 조직은 간 조직보다 약 3.6배 높았다. SCD는 palmitic acid(16:0) 와 stearic acid(18:0)를 기질로 하여 palmitoleic acid(16:1)와 oleic acid (18:1)로 전환하는 중요한 효소이다. 등심 조직과 간 조직에서 단일 불포화지방산의 조성비 차이가 SCD mRNA 의 발현량과 어떤 관련성을 가지는지를 RT PCR 법을 이용하여 분석되었다. 그 결과, SCD mRNA는 등심 조직에서 간 조직보다 약 3배 많이 발현되었다. 이상과 같이 한우 등섬 조직과 간 조직에서 단일불포화지방산의 조성의 현격한 치아는 SCD 활성지표인 지방산의 불포화도(3.6배 차이)와 SCD mRNA 발현량(3배 차이)과 상호 밀접한 관련성으로 해석할 수 있었다.

Otitis media with effusion (OME) is an inflammatory disease of the middle ear cleft. Oxygen free radicals have been implicated in a variety of inflammatory disorders. Oxygen free radicals may also be involved in the pathogenesis of OME. To evaluate the involvement of oxygen free radicals in the pathogenesis of OME, the level of malondialdehyde, which gives an index of lipid peroxidation by oxygen free radicals, was measured by the reaction with thiobarbituric acid. Malondialdehyde level in the middle ear fluid from the OME group was higher than that in the normal control group. Malondialdehyde level in the middle ear fluid from a mucoid subgroup was higher than that in the serous subgroup. Malondialdehyde levels in the middle ear fluid from the serous subgroup was significantly correlated with symptom duration. The Pearson correlation coefficient between malondialdehyde levels in the middle ear fluid from the serous subgroup and symptom duration was 0.842 (P<0.05). These results indicate that lipid peroxidation by oxygen free radicals may be involved in the pathogenesis of human OME.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the effects of bread supplemented with silkworm powder and cholesterol on the lipid metabolism in rats. When the rats were fed on bread supplemented with silkworm powder and cholesterol, their net weight tended to decrease as compared with the controls. Although the rats' food intake was increased, it did not increase significantly, but the feed efficiency ratio was substantially reduced. The levels of total and LDL-cholesterols were reduced, but the levels of HDL-cholesterol were increased. The HDL-cholesterol to total cholesterol ratio and level of triglyceride level were increased substantially. The atherogenic index was reduced when rats were fed on bread supplemented with silkworm powder, and thus we concluded that the bread caused an improvement in symptoms associated with high-cholesterol.

The effect of leaf dehydration process and air flow capacity of bulk curing on physical properties and composition of cured leaves was studied, respectively, during flue- curing. Cured leaves from excessive moisture during yellowing stage and those from rapid dehydration Process inevitably during later stages, tend towards lower equilibrium moisture contents, higher shatter index, hither protein nitrogen, and leaf scalding or deterioration of Beaves with redish cast. Early dehydration at the yellowing stage re suited in increasing of p Bamitic, stearic, linoleic, and linolenic acid contents, but showed reduction of brightness difference between upper and lower surface of the cured leaves, Leaf surface lipid decreased with the progress of curing stages, more conspicuously during later stage. Lowering air flow capacity of fan by 50oye during stem drying stage resulted in increasing of leaf surface lipid and 25oye decreasing of electric power consumption , but curing period and kerosene consumption were not affected.

The effect of sulfur-containing amino acids on lipid metabolism was studied in rats fed casein as a protein source. Plasma cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and atherosclerotic index decreased in the cysteine group compared to the methionine group. Plasma triglyceride and phospholipid level were not affected by the supplementation of the sulfur-containing amino acids. The levels of cholesterol and triglyceride in liver decreased by both methionine and cysteine. Cysteine increased the fecal excretion of coprostanol, total neutral steroid and bile acid. The results suggest that plasma cholesterol level is affected by dietary ratio of cysteine/methionine and that the hypocholesterolemic effects of cysteine is, at least in part, through reducing cholesterol absorption from small intestine and through enhancing fecal excretion of bile acids.

능이버섯의 항비만 건강식품으로서의 이용가능성을 분석하였다. 고지방식이에 의해 유도된 비만쥐에 6주 동안 능이버섯 분말을 섭취시켜, 능이버섯의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 비만지수, 혈청지질, 장기무게 등의 여러 가지 요인들을 분석하였다. 고지방식이를 먹인 쥐 혈청의 중성지방, 총콜레스테롤 및 Ldl은 유의적으로 증가하였으나 능이버섯분말을 먹인 쥐는 증가하지 않았다. 고지방식이 쥐에서 R$\ddot{o}$hrer index는 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 증가하였으나 버섯 분말을 섭취한 쥐는 R$\ddot{o}$hrer index가 유의적으로 감소하였다. 특히 몸무게에 대한 간 무게의 비율은 대조군에 비해 비만식이 쥐에서 높았다. 이러한 결과들은 버섯을 먹인 쥐에서의 비만지수와 장기무게의 유의적인 변화는 혈청에서 중성지방의 감소 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 그렇기 때문에 능이버섯은 비만과 관련된 질병을 막을 수 있는 건강식품의 하나로 이용 될 수 있는 가능성이 있다.

Gonadosomatic index, condition index and reproductive cycle with the gonadal development of the female Octopus ocellatus were investigated by histological observations and morphometric data, from January to December, 2000. And changes in biochemical components of the ovary and the trunk tissues including the digestive organ associated with gonadal development were studied by biochemical analysis from January to October, 2001. The specimens were collected at the coastal waters of Buan, Jeollabuk-do, Korea, from January 2000 to October 2001. O. ocellatus is a dioecious organism. The gonad of O. ocellatus locates medially in posterior region of the body. Morphology of the ovary shows round and oval in shape, the average diameter and external colour of ripe ovary was 32 mm and semitransparent light brown in colour. As the ovary was getting mature, transparent elongated eggs covered with chorion were present in the ovarian cavity. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) showed a similar pattern with those of the condition index. The GSI and condition index began to increase in March and reached the maximum in April. And then, their values decreased from May and reached the minimum in September. Reproductive cycle of O. ocellatus can be categorized into five successive stages: early developing stage (September to December), late developing stage (November to March), ripe stage (March to May), partially spawned stage (April to June), and degenerative/resting stage (June to October). Follicle cells attached to an oocyte were involved in vitellogenesis in the cytoplasm of the vitellogeneic oocyte and formation of chorion (secondary egg membrane) of the ovarian eggs. Spawning occurred between April and June. The spawning period was once a year and the peak took place between May and June. This species belongs to semelparity. According to changes in biochemical contents of the ovary and the digestive organ, monthly variations of moisture, total protein, total lipid and glycogen contents (%) in the ovary showed a negative correlationship with those of the trunk tissues including the digestive organ. Accordingly, it is assumed that the ovary only may be received nutrient supply (total lipid content) for gonadal development from the trunk tissues including the digestive organ (r = -0.55, p < 0.05).
