Centella asiatica accumulates large amounts of triterpene saponin, such as centellasaponin, asiaticoside, madecassoside. We examined the effect of two candidates, MJ (Methyl jasmonate) and TDZ (thidiazuron), on asiaticoside production and the accumulation of bAS mRNA associated with asiaticoside biosynthesis in leaves of cultured whole plants. The growth of whole plants treated with 0.1 mM MJ was found to decrease significantly, however, the growth of whole plants treated with 0.1 mM MJ plus 0.025 mg/l TDZ was better than that treated with MJ alone. When MJ alone was added to culture medium, asiaticoside contents in leaves were higher than that of control after 7 days of treatments. The maximum level of bAS $({\beta}-amyrin\;synthsae)$ mRNA in leaves of whole plant treated TDZ and MJ was transiently observed after exposure to 5 days. These results showed the up-regulation of bAS gene by adding TDZ and MJ at the molecular level, however, synergic effects of TDZ and MJ on asiaticoside biosynthesis were not testified.

Ginseng(Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) is important medicinal plant but requires 4-year cultivation for root harvest because of slow growth. In contrast, ginseng hairy roots induced by introducing Ri-plasmid of Agrobacterium rhizogenes into genomic DNA of plant cells show vigorous growth, and the hairy roots produce the same or more saponins than natural ginseng roots. Therefore, hairy roots can be used for commercial purposes. The present study was carried out to induce hairy roots with both active growth and high saponin contents. Numerous hairy roots of Panax ginseng were obtained after root disks of three-year old roots were infected with Agrobacterium rhizogenes R1000 A4T in dark condition after one month of culture. About 3 hundred lines of hairy roots were selected according as morphological characters on medium with carbenicillin. After pre-selection of fifteen lines of hairy roots with active growth, KGHR-l and KGHR-8 lines were finally selected which had characters of high content of ginsenoside-Rd and ginsenoside-Re, respectively. The optimum growth of hairy roots was achieved in the culture of 1/2 MS liquid medium in dark (22 $^{\circ}C$) under 60 rpm gyratory shaking. Hairy roots grew well in 5L Erlenmeyer flasks, lL roller drums, 10L jar-fermenters, and especially in 20L air-lift culture vessels.

We have reported cytotoxicities based on several types of sugar linkage in saponins in addition to antitumor and antiinflammatory effects. In order to find further structure-activity relationship on the cytotoxicity of saponins. we intended to isolate oleanane disaccharides Irom the saponin-containing extract of Akebia Quinata (Lardizabalaceae).

This study was conducted to know the elects of light intensity of polyethylene net shading on the growth status, photosynthesis and root yield of ginseng plants. Polyethylene net shading of loft transmittance was the best one among light intensities of polyethylene net used in view of photosynthesis and decreasing of early leaf defoliation. According to increase of light intensity under the shading chlorophyll contents of ginseng leaves were decreased. As it was increased over 2 mg/g Photosynthesis and total saponin of leaves showed on the decrease remarkably. The rate of alternaria blight of ginseng plants showed the positive correlation between light intensity and leaking rate. The shading of 10% transmittance in root yield was increased by 40% in 6-year-old ginseng plant as compared with common straw shading, due to decreased missing plant and increased root weight.

Background: The quality of a vaccine depends strongly on the effects of the adjuvants applied simultaneously with the antigen in the vaccine. The adjuvants enhance the protective effect of the vaccine against a viral challenge. Conversely, oil-type adjuvants leave oil residue inside the bodies of the injected animals that can produce a local reaction in the muscle. The long-term immunogenicity of mice after vaccination was examined. ISA206 or ISA15 oil adjuvants maintained the best immunity, protective capability, and safety among the oil adjuvants in the experimental group. Objectives: This study screened the adjuvant composites aimed at enhancing foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) immunity. The C-type lectin or toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist showed the most improved protection rate. Methods: Experimental vaccines were fabricated by mixing various known oil adjuvants and composites that can act as immunogenic adjuvants (gel, saponin, and other components) and examined the enhancement effect on the vaccine. Results: The water in oil (W/O) and water in oil in water (W/O/W) adjuvants showed better immune effects than the oil in water (O/W) adjuvants, which have a small volume of oil component. The W/O type left the largest amount of oil residue, followed by W/O/W and O/W types. In the mouse model, intramuscular inoculation showed a better protection rate than subcutaneous inoculation. Moreover, the protective effect was particularly weak in the case of inoculation in fatty tissue. The initial immune reaction and persistence of long-term immunity were also confirmed in an immune reaction on pigs. Conclusions: The new experimental vaccine with immunostimulants produces improved immune responses and safety in pigs than general oil-adjuvanted vaccines.

액체배양을 통한 부채마의 부정근 배양시 첨가되는 생장 조절제의 종류와 농도에 따른 부정근의 생장과 steroidal saponin 생산과의 관계를 조사하였다. NAA와 BA 농도별 부정근 생장은 NAA를 단독으로 1.0 mg/L를 처리한 곳에서 가장 효과적이었으나 NAA에 BA를 첨가하면 부정근의 생장에 오히려 억제효과를 보였다. 20종의 각각 다른 배양주로부터 dioscin, prosapogenin A 및 prosapogenin C의 함량을 조사한 결과 배양주에 따라 큰 차이를 보였는데, 그 중 dioscin 함량이 건물당 2.5%로 가장 높았던 10번 배양주를 선발하였다. 부정근에 함유된 세 종류의 steroidal saponin 함량은 부정근의 생장이 왕성한 4주까지는 낮으나 부정근의 생장이 거의 정지되는 5주째에 급격히 증가하였다. Dioscin과 prosapogenin C의 함량은 NAA보다 IBA를 처리한곳에서 현저히 높으나 prosapogenin A의 함량은 이들 두성분의 종류와 농도에 영향을 받지 않았다.

고기능성 홍삼사포닌성분의 함량을 증대시키기 위한 목적으로 홍삼엑스에 열처리, 산(acid)처리하여 그 가능성을 조사하였다. 산도를 조정하지 않은 무처리구(control, pH 4.4)에 $120^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 경우 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$의 함량이 약 2배 정도 증가였다. 구연산으로 pH 2.0으로 조정하고 온도처리한 처리구에서는 2.8배나 많은 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$ 성분이 증가하였으나 다른 유효한 사포닌의 파괴가 두드러져 처음 홍삼엑스에 함유되어 있던 총사포닌의 65% 정도가 소실되었다. $80^{\circ}C$에서 12시간 처리를 한 경우에는 pH를 2.5와 2.0로 조정한 처리구에서는 11.20 mg과 12.50 mg으로 홍삼엑스의 3.3 mg보다 3.3배 이상 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$ 성분이 변환되었다. Ginsenoside-$Rb_1,\;Rb_2$, Rc, Re, $Rg_1$의 함량이 산도가 높아짐에 따라서 급격히 소실되었고 홍삼 특이성분(ginsenoside-$Rg_3,\;Rh_2,\;Rh_1$)의 함량은 현저히 증가되었다. 매실엑스로 pH를 2.5로 조정한 처리구에서는 13.34 mg으로 홍삼엑스의 3.3 mg보다 4배 이상 변환된 것으로 분석되었다. 비록 31%정도의 total saponin의 감소가 있었으나 $120^{\circ}C$의 고온처리에서 처럼 다른 유효한 사포닌의 큰 손실 없이 $60^{\circ}C$에 12시간 처리하는 것만으로도 다량의 ginsenoside-$Rg_3$를 생산하는 것을 확인하였다.

수삼 추출물에서 홍삼특이 사포닌 성분의 함량을 증대시키고자 추출온도 및 시간에 따른 사포닌 성분별 함량 변화를 조사하였다. 수삼을 $85^{\circ}C$에서 48시간 추출 시 총 사포닌 함량이 23.5 mg/g(D.W.)로 가장 많았으며, 본 조건에서 추출한 인삼추출물의 항알러지 기능성을 검토하고자 랫트 비만세포에서 compound 48/80로 유도된 히스타민 유리 작용을 억제하는 인삼추출물의 효능을 분석하였다. 인삼추출물의 비만세포에 대한 세포 독성 시험 결과 각 추출물은 수시간 노출시 높은 세포 생존율을 보이고 있었고 비교적 고농도인 0.5 mg/ml 처리군에서도 80% 이상의 세포 생존율을 보였다. 인삼추출물의 히스타민 유리 억제 효과를 조사하기 위해 랫트 비만세포에 대표적인 탈과립 유도제인 compound 48/80을 단독 또는 각 추출물을 동시에 처리한 후 얻어진 상청액의 히스타민의 정량을 실시한 결과 비만세포는 compound 48/80의 처리 조건에서 대조군에 비하여 30% 가량의 히스타민 유리량이 증가하였는데, 인삼추출물 처리 시 히스타민 유리 수준이 정상 수준에 가까이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 인삼추출물의 항 알러지 목적으로의 이용 가능성을 제시하고 있다.
