본 연구에서는 미성숙 목화다래 추출물의 항산화능을 알아보기 위해 다래를 크기별로 구분하여 총 폴리페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량과 DPPH radical의 소거능, 아질산염 소거능, ABTS radical 소거능 및 SOD 유사활성을 측정하였다. 추출물의 페놀성 화합물과 플라보노이드 함량은 목화다래의 크기가 작을수록 높게 나타났으며, DPPH radical 소거능 및 ABTS radical의 소거능 또한 작은 크기에서 상대적으로 높은 활성을 보였다. 이는 다른 선행연구들에서와 같이 페놀함량이 높은 실험군에서 DPPH radical 소거능과 ABTS radical 소거능이 높게 나타나 유의성을 확인하였다. 아질산염 소거능은 인체 위 내부환경과 같은 pH 1.2에서는 높은 활성을 보이다가 pH 4.2에서는 점차로 활성이 떨어지는 결과를 보였으며, 중성에 가까운 pH 6.0에서는 아질산염 소거에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 SOD 유사활성은 대조군인 ascorbic acid에 비하면 낮은 활성이었지만, 기 보고된 다른 천연물들의 효소활성과 비교하였을 때 더 높거나 비슷한 결과를 나타냈다. 이와 같이 본 실험을 통해 미성숙 목화다래의 뛰어난 항산화 활성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 향후 화장품이나 기능성 식품 등에 있어서 새로운 소재개발의 가능성을 시사해주는 것으로서, 그동안 주로 천연 솜의 생산을 위해 재배되어왔던 목화의 제한적 활용성을 더욱 다양하게 해줄 것으로 기대된다.

It has been well known that extended exposure to reactive oxygens causes severe damage to susceptible biomolecules. In this study, the effects of flavonoids including trifling and kaempferol from Ginseng leaves on single oxygen induced photohemolysis of erythrocytes and free radical scavenging activities were investigated . Each flavonoid aglycone (5-50UM) such as kaempferol, quercetin or baicalein exhibited a high protective effect against the photohemolysis. They protected the cells by scavenging 102 and free radicals. Although the free radical scavenging activities of the flavonoid glycosides were not much lower than those of their corresponding aglycones, their insolubility into lipid bilayers of membrane made them less effective in preventing the photohemolysis induced by 1O2. The 102 and free radical scavenging activities of flavonoids were estimated by the decomposition of the flavonoid by 1O2 and the bleaching of free radicals by the flavonoid, respectively. The solubilization of the flavonoid into micelle or erythrocytes was deduced from spectrophotometric and microscopic observations. The cooperation of L-ascorbic acid and a flavonoid, and a possible involvement of lipoxygenase or cyclooxygenase in the photohemolysis mechanism were discussed. Keywords Panax ginseng C.A Meyer, ginseng leaves, flavonoids, singe1 oxygen, Photohemolysis.

It has been well known that extended exposure to reactive oxygens causes severe damage to susceptible biomolecules. In this study, the effects of flavonoids including trifolin and kaempferol from Ginseng leaves on singlet oxygen induced photohemolysis of erythrocytes and free radical scavenging activities were investigated. Each flavonoid aglycone (5-50$\mu$M) such as kaempferol, quercetin or baicalein exhibited a high protective effect against the photohemolysis. They protected the cells by scavenging $^1O_2$ and free radicals Although the free radical scavenging activities of the flavonoid glycosides were not much lower than those of their corresponding aglycones, their insolubility into lipid bilayers of membrane made them less effective in preventing the photohemolysis induced by $^1O_2$. The $^1O_2$ and free radical scavenging activities of flavonoids were estimated by the decomposition of the flavonoid by $^1O_2$ and the bleaching of free radicals by the flavonoid, respectively. The solubilization of the flavonoid into micells or erythrocytes was deduced from spectrophotometric and microscopic observations.

Recently new soybean saponins with D DMP (2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-2,3,- dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one) moiety have been isolated from legumes. The purpose of this study is to characterize ROS scavenging activities of DDMP saponins ($\alpha$g, $\beta$g saponin) isolated from Glycine max (L.) Merrill. The scavenging activity on OH was examined in terms of lipid peroxidation in the rat liver homogenates and the same activity on $O_2$ was also determined in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system, respectively. Up to 0.25 mg DDMP saponins ($\alpha$g and $\beta$g saponins) did not cause any significant effects on the prevention of lipid peroxidation as compared with the control group. In terms of superoxide scavenging activities, 0.25 and 0.5 mg $\alpha$g saponin inhibits only 2.6% and 5.5% (p<0.05) of the control group, respectively. However, $\alpha$g saponin dose-dependently (p<0.01, r=0.955) inhibits the formation of superoxide radical unto 21.3% of the control group with a maximal dose of 0.5 mg (p<0.01), equivalent to 0.17 units of superoxide dismutase activity.

A furanofuranoid lignan glycoside, with radical scavenging on peroxynitrite, total reactive oxygen species (ROS) and 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, was isolated from the rhizome of Salvia miltiorrhiza and characterized as (+)-1-hydroxypinoresinol-1-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside based on spectroscopic evidence. The compound exhibited peroxynitrite, total ROS and DPPH radical scavenging activities with $IC_{50}$ values of 3.23$\pm$0.04, 2.26$\pm$0.07 and 32.3$\pm$0.13 $\mu$M, respectively. Penicillamine, Trolox (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid) and L-ascorbic acid, acting as positive controls, showed radical scavenging activities with $IC_{50}$ values of 6.72$\pm$0.25, 1.43$\pm$0.04 and 11.4$\pm$0.07 $\mu$M, respectively.

유색감자의 식품학적 가치를 향상시키고, 고기능성 유색감자 신품종 육성 및 기능성식품의 천연소재로써 기초자료를 제공하고자 일반감자인 '수미'와 다양한 유색감자의 생리 활성을 평가하였다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 '수미'가 120.0 mg/100 g powder, '블루'가 151.1 mg/100 g으로 유색감자가 일반감자보다 더 많은 폴리페놀을 함유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 전자공여능은 추출물의 농도가 높아질수록 활성이 증가하였으며, '레드'와 '하령'을 제외한 유색감자의 활성이 '수미'보다 뛰어났다. Hydroxyl radical 소거능은 $2,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 '하령'을 제외한 나머지 유색감자의 활성이 '수미' 보다 높았으며, 특히 '블루'가 65.5%로 가장 높았다. 전단구 백혈병 세포주인 THP-1에 대한 세포 독성은 '블루', '자서', '자심'이 강한 활성을 나타내었고, 간암세포 $HepG_2$에 대한 증식 억제 효과는 '블루'만이 높은 항암효과를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과, 유색감자는 일반감자보다 항산화 및 항암활성이 뛰어난 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 유색감자 중에서도 '블루'의 생리활성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 '블루'를 비롯한 다양한 종류의 유색감자는 기능성식품 소재로써 개발할 가치가 매우 높음을 알 수 있으며, 특히 감자가 주식 또는 부식으로 손쉽게 섭취하는 식용작물임을 감안할 때 그 가능성은 더욱 증대될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of red algae in Jeju Island. The algal extracts were obtained with MeOH and fresh water at 20 and 70°C, and screened for antioxidant activities using hydroxyl radical (HO·), superoxide anion (O2–), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and DPPH free radical scavenging assays. Among them, Gracilaria verrucosa methanolic extract at 20°C (20ME, 96.85%), G. textorii aqueous extract at 20°C (20AE, 88.01%), Grateloupia filicina 20AE (85.35%), and Polysiphonia japonica 20ME (94.92%) exhibited the highest scavenging activities against HO·, O2–, H2O2, and DPPH free radicals, respectively. Moreover, P. japonica (20ME and 70ME) is correlated between DPPH free radical scavenging activity and polyphenolic contents. These results indicate that some red algae in Jeju Island could be potential candidates for development of antioxidants.
