The optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme activity were 45$^{\circ}C$ and 10.0, respectively. The enzyme was stable in a pH range of 5 to 10, and 62% of its activity was lost on heat treatment of 60$^{\circ}C$ for 20 min. The activity of the purified enzyme was inhibited by $Fe^{2+},\;Zn^{2+}\;and\;Pb^{2+}$, and slightly activated by $Mn^{2+}\;and\;Ca^{2+}$. ${\gamma}$-Chloromercuribenzoic acid, 2,4-dinitrophenol and $H_{2}O_{2}$ did not show inhibitroy effect on the lipolytic activity of the alkaline lipase but ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid inhibited the enzyem activity. This suggested that the enzyme have metal group in its active site. Sodium salts of bile acids stimulated the enzyme activity. Analysis of hydrolyzates of olive oil after the reaction revealed that Serratia liquefaciens AL-11 produced non-specific lipolytic enzyme.

The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of cimaterol on growth performance, carcass quality and cellular functional activity of broilers as affected by the various protein and energy levels. In starter period (0-21 days) all chicks were fed the basal diet which contained approximately 23 % crude protein and 3200 kcal of metabolizable energy per kg of diet. The cimaterol was added during 22-49 days and during the period of 8th week the cimaterol was withdrawn. In finisher period (22-49 days), a $2{\times}2{\times}3$ factorial arrangement consisting of 2 levels of cimaterol (0 mg/kg, 0.25 mg/kg), 2 levels of protein (19%, 17%) and 3 levels of energy (3200, 2900, 2600 kcal/kg) was used. In the finisher period, the body weight gain and feed efficiency was improved by the supplementation of cimaterol. The high protein and high energy level with supplementation of cimaterol had showed the highest body weight gain and feed efficiency, without significant difference. The administration of cimaterol had no effects on percentage of abdominal fat content, giblet and neck. Eventhough the difference was not significant (p>0.05), carcass yield was improved slightly by the administration of cimaterol. The effect of cimaterol on carcass composition was clearly demonstrated that protein content of broilers was not increased (p>0.05) but fat content decreased significantly (p<0.05). The ultilization of nutrients in experimental diets was not significantly affected by feeding cimaterol compared to control group. The results of in vitro studies with liver and adipose tissue showed that cimaterol increased the lipolytic activities at 19% protein level whereas at 17% protein level this effect was variable. Lipogenic activities in liver and adipose tissue were not affected with the administration of cimaterol but the activities increased as energy decreased, particularly in liver tissue. In cell studies with acinar culture of liver tissues, cimaterol had no effect on protein synthetic activity but the parameter was increased at higher level of dietary protein and energy. Protein secretion in liver was increased by the supplementation of cimaterol. In addition, at high protein level the protein secretion was increased and has shown the highest values at medium energy level.

In this study, we investigated the anti-obese activity of sevennight extract in high fat diet-ob/ob C57BL/6J mice by oral administered for 1 weeks. Mate water extract (MATEWi) was found to lower whole body and epididymal adipose tissue weights and lowered plasma levels of triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC), HDL and LDL, compared to those in high fat fed ob/ob group. These results suggest that Mate extract ameliorates obesity through activation of lipogenic enzymes and FA oxidation resulting from phosphorylation of AKT and GSK-$3{\beta}$, and could be developed as a potential therapeutic agent for obese mices.

Objective : This study was conducted to offer basic materials for the clinical study of Chi acupuncture (carboxytherapy). Methods : Recent clinical studies were reviewed for carboxytherapy (carbon dioxide therapy) and the ancient and present texts were reviewed for Chi acupuncture. Results and Conclusions : Chi acupuncture is oriental medical therapeutic treatment using carboxytherapy. Chi acupuncture refers to the transcutaneous administration of CO2 gas for therapeutical purposes relating to obesity, cellulites, local circulation and skin irregularity. Recent studies have demonstrated the effects of this therapy on adipose tissue by showing vasomotor effects, increasing local circulation and inducing a partial increase in tcPO2. Chi acupuncture influences the microcirculation and likely has a positive effect upon the physiological oxidative lipolytic process.

본 시험은 Sprague-Dawley 계통 흰쥐 수컷에게 지방의 종류와 식이급여 횟수를 달리하면서 급여하였을 때 성장 및 지방대사에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 4종류의 지방(팜유, 우지, 대두유 및 경화대두유) 및 2종류의 식이급여형태(ad-libitum, 4$\times$meal feeding)를 달리하여 4$\times$2 요인시험으로 실시하였다. 4주간 시험식이를 ad-libitum(AL)군은 식이를 제한없이 자유롭게 섭취하도록 하였으며, meal feeding(MF)군은 1일 1회 즉, 09:00~12:00까지만 식이를 제한없이 급여하였다. 사양시험 종료후 간조직에서의 콜레스테롤합성 능력을 알아보기 위해 흰쥐의 간조직을 채취하여 in vitro 배양 시험을 실시하였다. 또한 간과 지방조직에서의 지방합성 및 분해 능력을 알아보기 위해 사양시험이 끝난 흰쥐의 간과 지방조직을 채위하여 in vitro 세포배양에서의 지방합성 능력과 지방분해 능력을 측정하였다. 본 시험에서 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 성장하는 흰쥐의 증체량, 식이섭취량 및 식이효율은 AS(ad-libitum+hydrogenated soybean oil)군이 다른군에 비해 유의하게(p<0.05) 증가하였다. 식이지방의 종류에 의한 영향은 받지 않고, 식이급여형태에 의한 차이를 보여 MF군이 AL군에 비해 식이섭취량이 감소하였고, 중체량도 60%정도로 유의성있게(p<0.05)감소했다. 2) 간조직의 콜레스테롤합성 능력은 식이급여형태에 의한 차이를 보여 MF군이 AL군에 비해 간조직의 콜레스테롤합성 능력이 증가되는 경향을 (p<0.001) 보였는데 특히 불포화도가 높은 대두유군에서 유의성있게(p<0.05) 증가되었다. 3) 간조직의 in vitro 지방합성 능력은 MP(meal feeding+palm oil)군이 AP(ad-libitum+palm oil)군보다, MHS(meal feeding+hydrogenated soybean oil)군이 AHS(ad-libitum+hydrogenated soybean oil)군보다 유의하게(p<0.05) 증가했고, AB(ad-libium+beef tallow)군과 MB(meal feeding+beef tallow)군에서 지방합성 능력이 현저하게 증가되는 경향을(p<0.05)보였다. 식이급여형태나 식이지방의 종류에 대한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 간조직에서의 in virto 지방분해 능력은 MF군이 AL군에 비해 유의하게(P<0.001) 증가했고, 식이지방의 종류에 의한 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 4) 지방조의 in vitro 시험에 의하면 MF식이가 AL식이에 비해 지방합성 능력이 유의성있게(p<0.05) 증가하였으나, 지방분해 능력은 저하되었다(p<0.001). 식이지방의 종류에 의한 영향을 받아 우지군이 다른 지방군에 비해 지방합성 능력이 유의성있게(p<0.001) 증가되는 경향을 보였으나, 지방분해 능력은 식이지방의 종류에 의한 영향을 받지 않았다.

본 연구에서는 꽃송이버섯 추출물을 처리하여 분화된 3T3-L1 지방 세포와 비만 유도 쥐에서 지질분해 효과를 살펴보았다. In vitro, preadipocyte에서 MTT assay를 이용하여 세포독성 실험을 한 결과 시간, 농도에 관계없이 세포생존율에 영향을 미치지 않았고, 분화된 지방세포에서의 지방분해 효과는 농도 의존적으로 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 이외에도 지방세포에서 지방분해 산물인 glycerol 양을 측정한 결과 48, 72시간에서 시간, 농도 의존적으로 유의성 있게 증가하였다. Lipolytic enzyme의 CPT-1 및 UCP-2 발현을 측정하기 위해 Western blot assay를 실시한 결과 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물이 CPT-1 및 UCP-2의 발현을 증가시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. In vivo에서 고지방 식이에 의해 비만이 유도된 쥐에 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물을 처리한 후 실험 종료 시 실험동물의 체중은 고지방식이를 공급한 군에 비해 저농도, 고농도 꽃송이버섯을 처리한 군 각각 유의적으로 감소하였다. 실험동물의 장기와 지방조직 무게를 측정한 결과, 대조군에 비해 추출물을 처리한 군에서 체중과 장기 및 지방조직의 감소가 저농도, 고농도 모두 유의하게 나타났으며, 혈청 및 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과, 혈청지질의 중성지방, 총 콜레스테롤 함량 모두 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며, HDL-콜레스테롤 함량은 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과 중성지방은 유의적으로 낮게 나타났고 총 콜레스테롤 역시 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 혈청 및 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물이 비만이 유도된 쥐의 혈청 및 간의 지질 농도 변화를 낮추는 효과가 있다고 사료된다. 따라서 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물은 lipolytic enzyme의 발현을 증가시켜 지방산의 산화 반응 및 열 발생에 의한 에너지 소비율을 증가시켜 lipid accumulation을 감소시키며, 이로 인한 체중 감소 및 혈청이나 간의 지질함량을 개선시켜 지질분해 효과를 보여줌으로써 비만 예방 및 치료를 목적으로 하는 식품 소재로서의 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

Effect of the acid hydrolysate of silk fibroin on obesity was investigated in obese(057BL/KsJ-db/db) mice. After 8 weeks feeding of 1%(w/w) or 3%(w/w) fibroin hydrolysate, the extents of reduction in body weight were significantly higher than that of obese control. The weight reduction in female mice was higher than that in male mice. Plasma leptin in male mice increased up to 1.8-fold higher level than obese control by feeding hydrolysate. In case of female mice, however, it rather decreased with increased feeding concentration of hydrolysate. From the results of high glycine and serine contents of peptide fractions contained in fibroin hydrolysate, it was inferred that fibroin peptides might affect xylosyltransferase(XT) activity on chondroitin sulfate synthesis causing to change susceptibility of adipocytes to hormones such as insulin followed by the reduced leptin synthesis in female mice. The result of the higher lipolysis in hydrolysate-fed group than obese control indicated that the reduction in body weight was due to the increased lipolytic activities in male and female mice in common.

The purpose of this research was to investigate effects of baicalin on the differentiation of preadipocytes, 3T3-L1, and to characterize the action of baicalin that affect the responses of 3T3-L1 cells during differentiation. In various culture conditions, effects of baicalin and adrenoreceptor agonists such as phenylephrine(PE) and isoproterenol(IPR) on cell differentiation were examined. Also, effects of the drugs on differentiation, triglyceride(TG) contents, expression of insulin receptor, cAMP contents, the cytosolic $Ca^{2+}$ levels, and amount of calmodulin(CaM) were examined. The results suggest that baicalin has adrenergic receptor blocking activity during the process of differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells and that in the early stage of the adipose conversion, the effect of baicalin on the adipocyte differentiation is mediated by the regulation of insulin receptor expression, but by alterations of the cAMP and the calcium metabolism in the late stage. These results also suggest that the action of baicalin may be significant in the lipid metabolism, lipogenic and lipolytic pathways, of adipose cells.

In this study, we investigated the anti-obese activity of HPJ extract in C57BL/6J mice. The C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into five groups: normal control group (Con), high fat diet control group (HFD), treatment groups with HPJ at 125 mg/kg (HPJ125), 250 mg/kg (HPJ250), or 500 mg/kg (HPJ500). To induce an obesity, mice were fed by a high fat diet for 6 weeks, and mice were administered with HPJ extract once a day for 8 weeks. At the end of treatment, we examined the effect of HPJ extract on body weight, plasma lipid, and lipogenic enzymes. HPJ extract was found to lower whole body and epididymal adipose tissue weights and lowered plasma levels of glucose, insulin, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) and leptin, compared to those in HFD group. Histological analyses of the liver and fat tissues of mice treated with HPJ extract revealed significantly decreased number of lipid droplets and decreased size of adipocytes compared to the HFD group. In addition, HPJ extract preserved the morphological integrity of pancreatic islets. To elucidate an action mechanism of HPJ extract, Western blot and RT-PCR were performed using epididymal adipose tissues. HPJ extract up-regulated the levels of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and its substrate, acetyl-CoA carboxylasse (ACC). HPJ extract also attenuated lipogenic gene expressions of sterol regulatory element-binding protein $1{\alpha}$ (SREBP$1{\alpha}$), fatty acid synthase (FAS), sterol-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) and glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) in dose-dependent manners. In contrast, expressions of lipolytic genes such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-$\alpha$ (PPAR-${\alpha}$) and CD36, and fatty acid $\beta$-oxidation gene, carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1) were increased. These results suggest that HPJ extract ameliorates obesity through inhibiting synthesis of lipogenic enzymes as well as stimulating fatty acid oxidation resulting from activation of AMPK, and HPJ extract could be developed as a potential therapeutic agent for obese patients.
