The ferrokinetics and red cell life spans of the patients with chronic glomerulonephritis were investigated by the double tracing method using radioactive iron ($^{59}Fe$) and chromium ($^{51}Cr$). According to the serum NPN levels, the patients were subdivided into 3 groups: Group 1. 6 patients, had the levels below 40 mg/dl Group 2. 6 patients, had the levels between 41 mg/dl to 80 mg/dl Group 3. 10 patients, had the levels above 80 mg/dl The results were as follows: 1) Red blood cell-, hematocrit- and hemoglobin values were moderately reduced in patients with normal serum NPN levels, while markedly reduced in patients with elevated serum NPN levels. 2) The plasma volume was increased, while the red cell volume was decreased in patients with elevated serum NPN levels, hence, total blood volume was unchanged. 3) The serum iron level was slightly reduced h patients of groups 1 and 2, while was within the normal ranges in patients of group 3. 4) i) In patients with normal serum NPN levels, the plasma iron disappearance rate, red cell iron utilization rate, red cell iron turnover rate, daily red cell iron renewal rate, circulating red cell iron and red cell iron concentration were within the normal ranges, while the plasma iron turnover rate was slightly reduced. ii) In patients with elevated serum NPN levels, the plasma iron disappearance rate was delayed, while the plasma iron turnover rate was within the normal ranges. The red cell iron utilization rate, red cell iron turnover rate and circulating red cell iron were decreased and the period in which the red cell iron utilization rate reachd its peak was delayed in Group 3 patients. The daily red cell iron renewal rate and the red cell iron concentration were unchanged. iii) The mean red cell life span was within the normal ranges in patients with normal serum NPN levels, while was shortened in patients with elevated serum NPN levels.

현대사회는 생활습관, 공해, 오염, 독성물질 등 여러 종류의 산화스트레스를 받는 환경에 노출되어 있으며, 이런 산화스트레스들은 인간에게 있어 여러 질병을 야기한다는 많은 증거 들이 나오고 있다. Ferric Nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)는 iron-induced oxidative Stress로 인해 신장독성에 관여되어 있다고 보고된 물질이다. 이에 본 연구진은 랫드에 항산화 효과가 있는 차전초(Plantago asiatica) 추출물을 투여하고 Fe-NTA를 복강 주사하여 선장에서 iron-induced oxidative stress를 유발한 후, 산화스트레스를 얼마나 억제하여 주는 지를 혈액에서 신장기능 지표인 blood urea nitrogen (BUN)과 creatinine (Cr)을 측정하고, 신장조직에서는 항산화 바이오마커들인 reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR) 및 지질과산화물 (lipid peroxide)인 malondialdehyde (MDA)를 측정 하였다. 신장기능 이상시 증가되는 BUN 및 Cr은 Fe-NTA에 의해 산화스트레스만 유발한 그룹에서는 $116.82{\pm}5.20$ mg/dL과 $2.70{\pm}0.20$ mg/dL로 아무것도 처리하지 않은 대조군의 $18.54{\pm}1.29$ mg/dL, $0.52{\pm}0.04$ mg/dL에 비해 약 6.3배 및 5.2배의 증가를 나타냈다. 반면 차전초를 투여한 1g/kg b.w. 군에 서 BUN 및 Cr의 활성 이 각각 $95.76{\pm}7.89$ mg/dL과 $2.16{\pm}0.340$ mg/dL, 2g/kg b.w. 군에서는 $89.34{\pm}26.93$ mg/dL 과 $2.20{\pm}0.51$ mg/dL, 4 g/kg b.w. 군에서는 $39.54{\pm}21.93$ mg/dL과 $1.16{\pm}0.55$ mg/dL으로 농도 의존적으로 유의적 (p < 0.05) 차이를 보이며 감소하는 결과를 보였다. 항산화의 바이오마커로 작용하는 GSH, GST 및 GR은 Fe-NTA에 의해 산화스트레스만 유발한 그룹에서는 각각 $59.45{\pm}12.32$ mmol GSH/g tissue, $49.88{\pm}4.55$ Units/g tissue, $56.70{\pm}5.40$ Units/g tissue로 아무것도 처리하지 않은 정상그룹의 $142.82{\pm}16.51$ mmol GSH/g tissue, $124.69{\pm}13.073$ Units/g tissue, $107.31{\pm}8.70$ Units/g tissue에 비해 58.4%, 60.0%, 47.2%로 현저하게 감소하였다. 반면 차전초 추출물을 1, 2, 4 g/kg b.w. 으로 투여한 그룹에서의 GSH는 $77.86{\pm}12.62$, $123.11{\pm}12.72$, $147.97{\pm}26.27$ mmol GSH/g tissue로 Fe-NTA만 처리한 그룹에 비해 약 1.3배, 2.1배, 2.5배 증가하였으며, GST는 $66.59{\pm}5.01$, $83.25{\pm}8.38$, $124.68{\pm}13.67$ Units/g tissue.로1.3배,1.7배, 2.5배 증가, GR은 $67.37{\pm}8.66$, $80.34{\pm}6.06$, $98.67{\pm}10.11$ Units/g tissue로 1.2배, 1.4배, 1.7배 증가하였다. 산화스트레스로 유발되는 지질과산화물을 신장에서 측정 하였을 때 Fe-NTA에 의해 산화스트레스만 유발한 그룹은 $215.70{\pm}49.73\;{\mu}mol$/g tissue로 대조군 그룹의 $46.20{\pm}10.65\;{\mu}mol$/g tissue보다 지질과산화를 많이 일으켜 4.7배 많은 MDA를 생성한 것을 나타냈지만, 차전초 추출물 1, 2,4 g/kg b.w. 투여한 그룹은 MDA의 생성량이 $141.74{\pm}10.79$, $116.11{\pm}9.19$, $86.52{\pm}22.30\;{\mu}mol$/g tissue로 약 34.3%, 46.2%, 59.9% 감소한 것을 확인하였다. 신장에서 iron-induced oxidative stress에 의해 독성을 유발하는 Fe-NTA를 처리 하였을시 신장손상 지표인 BUN과 Cr은 증가하고, 항산화 지표인 GSH와 GST, GR은 감소함과 동시에 지질과산 화물인 MDA는 증가하였다. 그러나 차전초 추출물을 농도를 달리하여 투여한 후 Fe-NTA로 산화스트레스를 유발한 그룹은 농도 의존적으로 BUN과 Cr은 감소하고, 항산화 지표들은 증가함과 동시에 MDA는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 Fe-NTA만 처리한 그룹과 유의적 차이를 보였다. 위 결과들을 종합하면 Fe-NTA는 산화스트레스에 의해 신장에 심각한 손상을 줄 수 있으며, 차전초 추출물은 항산화 효과를 바탕으로 하여 Fe-NTA에 의한 신장 손상에 대한 보호 또는 개선 효과가 있음을 확인 하였다.

This study was done to investigate effects of smoking, drinking and exercise on body composition, dietary intakes, serum lipids of male high school students in Seoul. Body Composition was analyzed by the Bioelectrical Impedance Fatness Analyzer. Dietary survey was conducted by 24-hour recall method and nutrient intakes were analyzed by the Computer Aided Nutritional analysis program for professional (CAN-Pro). All data were statistically analyzed by SAS PC package program. Mean and standard error were examined for each items. The significant difference was examined by student's t-test. Body composition data showed that protein mass, mineral mass and lean body mass of regular exercisers were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than those of irregular exercisers. Energy and protein intakes of male high school students were 1868 kcal/day (69.2% RDA), 68 g/day (91.3% RDA), respectively. Ca, Fe and Vitamin B$_2$ intakes were lower than 2000 RDA. Analysis of serum lipids showed that serum levels of HDL-cholesterol of drinkers were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than those of nondrinkers. Overall results imply that smoking and alcohol drinking of adolescent males may not much influence on serum lipids levels because pack-years of smoking or the amount of alcohol drinking was not serious enough to be harmful to health.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between obesity and, erythrocyte SOD (superoxide dismutase) activity and serum antioxidant mineral (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn and Se) concentrations of adolescents. Subjects were assigned to one of two groups such as obese ($BMI{\geq}25$, 32 boys, 24 girls) and normal group (18.5 < BMI < 23, 27 boys, 30 girls) Subjects were evaluated based on anthropometric measurements, 24-hr dietary recalls and blood analysis. The mean age of the total subjects was 13.8 years. The mean weight (p < 0.001), BMI (p < 0.001) and body fat (p < 0.001) of obese were higher than those of normal group. There was no significant difference in nutrient intake between obese and normal groups. SOD activity of obese group was not significantly different from normal groups, in both males and females. However, in the males, serum Cu concentration of obese were significantly lower than those of normal group. In the females, Serum Mn concentration of obese were significantly lower then those of normal group. In the correlation analysis, BMI of the subjects had significantly negative correlations with serum Cu, Zn and Mn. To summarize the results, increase of obesity may lead to decrease of serum antioxidant minerals such as Cu, Zn and Mn.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of copper supplementation on mineral utilizations in rats. Intakes, excretions, and tissue levels of Fe, Zn, Cu, Ca, Mg, Na, K were compared in rats fed diet with 100, 200, 400% of copper requirement(1Cu, 2Cu and 4Cu, respectively) for 6 weeks. The feed intake was significantly higher in 2Cu compared to 1Cu group, however, body weight gain was not significantly different among the three groups. While the serum level of Fe was significantly decreased, that of Cu was significantly elevated by Cu supplementation. The liver and kidney levels of Mg and Na, intakes of all the minerals, urinary excretions of Fe, Cu, Ca and Mg were significantly higher in 2Cu and/or 4Cu compared to 1Cu. The fecal excretions, retentions and absorptions of all the minerals were not affected by Cu supple mentation. In summary, these results suggest that dietary Cu supplementation has no effect on mineral utilizations, but effect on distribution in tissues of rats.

This study was performed to investigate the correlations among physical anthropometric measurement, diet intakes, physical fitness test, and serum lipids in eight sedentary women(control group), and twenty seven exercising women(aerobic groups), aged 35~45 years. The results of the study are as follows : 1) systolic blood pressure(SBP) and diastolic blood pressure(DBP) of aerobic groups were lower than serf entary. Pulse rate was decreased according to the length of aerobic periods. Muscular endurance and jump power of all subjects were stronger than standard range, and those of aerobic exercising groups were stronger than control group. Muscular power of the upper half of the body In all subjects were lower than standard range. 2) Daily calorie intakes of all subjects were in the ring: of recommended dietary allowances (RDA) for Koreans. But daily protein Intakes were higher than RDA. daily cholestrol intakes of all subjects were slightly less than 200~300 mg: which is normal consumption of Koreans. 3) There was a significant positive correlation between serum 7G and daily protein intakes. It was considered that excessive protein intake converted to serum 7G. There was not a significant correlation between serum TC and dietary TC. Therefore, dietary TC seemed to have not much effect on serum TC. Physical fitness was negatively related to serum TG, TC, LDL-C, but positively related to HDL-C, HDL-C /TC. It was found that the serum lipids could be changed better according to improving the physical fitness. There were significant positive correlations between SBP and serum TC, LDL-C. (According to this results), the higher SBP, the higher serum TC, LDL-C tended to be. There was a significant positive correlations between sit up and weightloss nth exercise r=0.7(p<0.001), push ups and weightless with exercise r=0.5(p<0.001). It was considered that muscle strength could be improved according to the weightloss. 4) The purpose of exercise in aerobic groups was rather promoting health than reducing body fatness. Most of al1 subjects (83.2%) drank caffeine-contained beverage therefore, we should concern about that absorption of Fe could be Interrupted and blood pressure could be elevated by caffeine.

This study was performed to investigate the anthropometric data, serum profiles, and nutrient intakes of high school students who are living in Seoul. Anthropometric data showed that mean height and weight were 174.1 cm and 66.6 kg in 99 male and 161.4 cm and 54.0 kg in 116 female students. Mean BMl for male and female students were 21.9 and 22.3 kg/$m^2$, and subjects with BMI > 25 kg/$m^2$ were 14 and 7%, respectively. Total cholesterol, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol of subjects were 149.6$\pm 3.1,\; 46.4 \pm 1.3,\; 86.4 \pm 2.3$,/TEX> mg/dl for males and 169.2 $\pm 3.1,\;50.7 \pm 1.0,\; 100.9 \pm 2.7 mg/dl$ for females, respectively. Hemoglobin (Hb) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) were 12.8 $\pm 0.1 g/dl, \;437.3 \pm 7.2\mug/dl\; in\; male\; and\; 11.9 \pm 0.1 g/dl,\; 439.4 \pm 5.7\mug/dl$ in female, respectively. Based on Hb classification, 45.6% of male and 45.0% of female students fell into anemic condition. Intakes of energy, Ca, Fe, Zn, riboflavin, and folate were below the Korean RDA. In particular Ca (male and female, respectively, 64.6 and 64.3% RDA) and Fe (male and female, respectively, 78.6 and 64.3% RDA) intakes were extremely low. Serum triglyceride was positively significantly correlated with weight (r =0.22), BMI (r =0.279), waist circumference (WC, r =0.235), triceps skin-fold thickness (TSF, r =0.197) and obesity index (OI, r =0.279). Hb concentration was positively correlated with height (r + 0.387), weight (r =0.349), BMI (r =0.191) and waistlhip ratio (WHR, r =0.380). As for the correlation between serum profiles and nutrient intakes, the Hb concentration was positively correlated with energy (r =0.163), protein (r =0.149), Na (r =0.153), vitamin A (r =0.165), thiamin (r =0.201) and niacin (r =0.192, p < 0.01). These result suggest that the prevalence of Ca and Fe deficiency of student is high and dietary guideline for prevent anemia in this age needs to contain the adequate intake of energy and its related vitamins.

This study was to investigate the effect of fermentation extracts on the concentration of serotonin and melatonin in the serum of the ICR mice. The ICR mice were divided into water control group, lactobacillus fermentation solution including (Lactobacillus paracasei and Bifidobacterium longum B6) control group, positive control group (milk and doxylamine succinate), negative control group (caffein) and the groups treated with the extracts of Berberis koreana bark (WE: water extracts, FE-L.P: fermentation extracts of Lactobacillus paracasei, FE-B.L: fermentation extracts of Bifidobacterium longum B6). After ten-day feeding treatment, the mean concentration of serotonin for water control, WE, FE-L.P and FEB. L group was 134.72, 183.01, 232.09 and $223.78 ng/m{\ell}$, respectively. The mean concentration for FE-L.P and FE-B.L group were approximately 66% larger than that for water control group. The mean concentration of melatonin for water control, WE, FE-L.P and FE-B.L group was 76.92, 106.66, 157.56 and $141.81pg/m{\ell}$, respectively. The mean concentration of melatonin for FE-L.P and FE-B.L group were also larger than that for water control group. Our results indicated that the fermentation extracts of Berberis koreana bark have relatively greater potential to induce secretion of serotonin and melatonin. Therefore, the fermentation extracts have antidepressant effect.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation among mineral intakes, blood pressure, and blood lipids for health management of Korean adults over 20 years old. Subjects were recruited from the district where they lived, which included rural (Yoju, n = 137) , coastal (Taean, n = 100) , and urban district (Suwon, n : 117) . hnthropornekical measurement, blood pressure measurement, dietary intake assessment using 24-hour recall method, and blood collection and analysis of blood lipids were conducted. The average age, height, weight, and BMI were 54.1 years, 168.5 cm, 67.3 kg, and 24.5 kg/$m^{2}$ for men and 53.9 years,153.8 cm,59.2 kg, and 25.0 kg/$m^{2}$ for women, respectively. The mean daily intakes of total food and energy were 1219.1 g and 1740.9 kcal for men and 1071.3 g and 1432.6 kcal for women. The mineral intakes of men and women were 448.5 mg and 400.4 mg for calcium,955.3 mg and 803.7 mg for phosphorus, 13.3 mg and 11.1 mg for iron, 4302.8 mg and 3393.3 mg for sodium,2588.0 mg and 2264.9 mg for potassium, and 8.9 mg and 7.3 mg for zinc. The daily intakes of energy, calcium, zinc, vitamin $B_{2}$, and vitamin I were $76.1\%$, $60.1\%$, $73.1\%$, $68.6\%$, and $80.4\%$ of RDAs, respectively. The intakes of energy, calcium, zinc, vitamin $B_{2}$ and I were not meet Korean RDAs. Especially, calcium, zinc, and vitamin $B_{2}$ were less than $75\%$ of RDAs. Blood pressure of the subjects was 128.3/75.5 mmHg for men and 124.1/73.7 mmHg for women. Serum lipids of men and women were 180.2 mg/dL and 184.9 mg/dL for total cholesterol, 160.8 mg/dL and 137.6 mg/dL for triglyceride,41.5 mg/dL and 44.7 mg/dL for HDL-cholesterol,106.6 mg/dL and 112.7 mg/dL for LDL-cholesterol, and 3.5 and 3.3 for atherogenic index. While serum triglyceride and AI of men was significantly higher, HDL-cholesterol was lower than those of women. In the relation among mineral intakes, blood pressure, and serum lipids, we found a significantly negative correlation of intakes of calcium, calcium/phosphorus, calcium density with systolic blood pressure. There were significantly negative correlation between intake of calcium/phosphorus and serum cholesterol, calcium density and serum cholesterol, sodium intake and serum HDL-cholesterol. Based on these results, we concluded that high intakes of calcium, calcium/phosphorus and low sodium intake were associated with favorable blood pressure and serum lipid profiles in adult men and women.

본 연구는 2가철-아스코르빈산착체(Fe-Asc)에 의한 파아지 불활화에 있어서 Fe-Asc의 작용부위에 관해 연구하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Fe-Asc의 단백질에 대한 작용에 관하여 우혈청알부민과 J1파아지의 구조단백질을 사용하여 검토한 결과 Fe-Asc의 처리구와 미처리구에 있어서 SDS-폴리아크릴아미드 겔 전기영동패턴, 아미노산 조성 및 자외선 스펙트럼에 변화는 보이지 않았다. 이에 대하여 Fe-Asc를 pUC18 DNA, M13mp8, ${\lambda}$ DNA 및 J1 파아지의 DNA에 작용시키면 아가로오스겔 전기영동패턴에 변화가 보여 사슬절단이 확인되었다. pUC18 DNA는 Fe-Asc와 반응시 먼저 수퍼코일형의 두가닥사슬 DNA의 한쪽 가닥에 절단이 일어나 개환형으로 되고 잇따라 두 가닥 사슬절단이 일어나 선형으로 되어 저분자화하는 것이 확인되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 Fe-Asc에 의한 파아지 불활화는 파아지 DNA의 손상에 기인한다고 생각된다.
