Effects of dietary fatty acids and vitamin E on antioxidant vitamin status were studied in rat brain sections. Sources of dietary fat(10t%) were safflower oil(SO) poor in $\omega$3 fatty acid and mixed oil (MO) with computer-adjustd fatty acid ratios(AA/DHA=1.4, $\omega$6/$\omega$3=6.3, P/M/S=1.0/1.5/1, AA=2.%)with (ME) and without(MO) vitamin E(500mg/kg diet). Rats were fed the three kinds of diet from 3-4 wks prior to the conception. At the age of 3 & 9wks of the 2nd generation rat, antioxidant vitamins were measured in frontal cortex(FC), corpus striatum (CS), cerebellum(CB) and hippocampus(HP) using a multiwavelength, reverse phase gradient HPLC system. The levels of antioxidant vitamins converged to the similar value in all groups at 9 wks of age. Retinol, lycopene and cryptoxanthin levels of all experimental groups were found to be the highest in hippocampus at both 3 & 9wks of age. The levels of vitamin E appeared to be higher in the order of HP>CS-CB>FC in MO & ME. Beta-carotene and retinol showed the lowest level in hippocampus of vitamin E supplemented groups, even though vitamin E level tended to be higher in other sections. It seemed that vitamin E has an inhibitory action on the uptake of beta-carotene or acts as a preferred antioxidant to beta-carotene in certain section of the brain. By improving fatty acid balance (AA/DHA = 1.4, $\omega$6/$\omega$3=6.3, P/M/S=1.0/1.5/1, AA = 2%), the levels of vitamin E, retinol, lycopene & beta=carotene tended to be higher in MO than in SO, although crytoxanthin became lower at 3wks of age. In short, dietary fatty acids and vitamin E have different influence on antioxidant vitamin status in different rat brain sections. The higher levels of antioxidant vitamins in hippocampus should be pursued further in relation to behavioral development of rats.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vitamin E supplementation on the lipid peroxidation and activities of antioxidative enzymes in the pancreas of diabetic KK mice. KK mice were fed high ft diet containing 20% corn oil(wt/wt), and sacrificed at 2 months of diabetes. A hish vitamin E diet consisted of the high fat diet supplemented with an excessive amount of 이-$\alpha$-tocopheryl acetate (2080IU/kg diet). The incidence of diabetes mellitus was 61% when mice were fed the high fat diet, but was 44% when mice were fed the high vitamin E diet, Vitamin E supplementation fhus seems to have the effect of decreasing of decreasing the onset of diaetes. In the diabetic group, we found increases of MDA (malondialdehyde) and antioxidative enzyme activities. Treatment with vitamin E did not modify the level of fasting blood glucose. However, MDA and antiosicative enzyme activities in diabetic mice were decreased by the high vitamin E diet. Increased levels of lipid peroxidation products suggests the occurrence of oxidative damage in the pancreas of diabetic mice. The increased level of antiosicative enzyme activities could be due to an adaptive response to conditions of increased peroxidative stress. Significant normalization on catalase activity was noted in vitamin E supplemented animals.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of dietary vitamin E on the lipid peroxidation by dietary iron-injected to male rats. Sprague-Dawely strain male rats were divided into three experimental groups, namely control, iron injected and iron-vitamin E injected groups. The control group was fed with normal diet; the iron injected group was given normal diet and while injected intraperitoneally 30mg of ferric hydroxide/100g of body weight 20 times every 3 days. The iron-vitamin E injected group was intraperitoneally administered 30mg of ferric hydroxide/100g of body weight 20 times every 3 days and vitamin E every day with the dose of 5IU(5mg)/100g body weight. All experimental groups were maintained for 60 days with feeding on the respective ratio. The results obtained from this experiment were summarized as following: 1. The net weight gain was significantly decreased by the iron injection, but much increased by the vitamin E injection. 2. The contents of unsaturated fatty acid in phospholipid in liver, kidney, muscle and serum were decreased by the iron injection, but increased by the vitamin E injection. 3. The increment of malondialdehyde contents was induced by the iron overloading, but significantly decreased by the vitamin E injection. Therefore, it is suggested that dietary iron administration to male rats facilitates the lipid peroxidation in vivo and vitamin E has the inhibiting effect on lipip peroxidation process by iron.

To clerify the cytotoxicity of reactive oxygen species in cultured hippocampal neurons of neonatal mouse, toxic effect was measured by MTT assay after cultured cells were incubated for 3 hours in the media containing 1～40 μM concentrations of H₂O₂. In addition, the protective effect of vitamin E was determined in these cultrures. Cell viability was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner after exposure of 10 μM H₂O₂ to cultured mouse hippocampal neurons for 5 hours. In the protective effect of vitamin E, vitamin E prevented the H₂O₂-induced cytotoxicity in these cultures. From these results, it suggests that H₂O₂ has toxic effect in cultured mouse hippocampal neurons and vitamin E has protective effect on the cytotoxicity induced by H₂O₂.

Induction of NAD(P)H : (quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase (QR) which obligatory two electron reduction of quinones and prevents their participation in oxidative cycling and thereby the depletion of intracellular glutathione, has been used as a marker for chemopreventive agents. We postulated that vitamin E, an antioxidant, which induces QR as the gene of QR was reported to contain antioxidant reponsive element in the 5'-flanking region. Vitamin E resulted in significant induction of QR in both hepalclc7 cells and mouse tissues. QR induction was observed; to be maximal at 25uM vitamin E for hepalclc7 cells while it was maximal in the level of 2.5∼5 μmoles vitamin E/㎏ BW for mouse tissues. Thus the cancer-preventive effect of vitamin E may be exerted by it induction of intracellular detoxifying enzymes.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the synergistic effects of vitamin C and E on methylmercury (MeHg) toxicity in juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. In a $3{\times}3$ factorial design, 9 experimental diets containing three different vitamin C (0, 200 or 400 mg/kg diet in the form of l-ascorbyl-2-monophosphate) and vitamin E (0, 100 or 200 mg/kg diet in the form of dl-${\alpha}$-tocopheryl acetate) levels with the Hg toxicity level (20 mg/kg diet in the form of MeHg) were formulated. Triplicate groups of fish averaging $2.3{\pm}0.05g(mean{\pm}SD)$ were fed one of the 9 diets in a flow through system for 8 weeks. Fish fed 400 mg vitamin C/kg diet with 100 or 200 mg vitamin E/kg diet showed significantly (P < 0.05) higher weight gain (WG) than did fish fed the other diets. Fish fed 400 mg vitamin C/kg diet at all vitamin E levels and those which fed vitamin C and E equally at a rate of 200 mg/kg diet showed significantly (P < 0.05) higher feed efficiency (FE), specific growth rate (SGR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) than did fish fed the other diets. Fish fed 200 and 400 mg vitamin C/kg diet exhibited significantly (P < 0.05) lower Hg concentration in their muscle as well as kidney than did fish fed the other diets. Therefore, these results clearly indicated that the synergistic effects of these two vitamins on MeHg toxicity by supplementing dietary vitamin C (200 and 400 mg/kg diet) with vitamin E (100 and 200 mg/kg diet) in juvenile olive flounder.

魚油섭취시 식이 vitamin E의 변화가 체내의 과산화물생성과 여러 종류의 생리적인 항산화물질의 상태에 주는 변동을 조사하기 위하여, 체중 $150pm15$g의 Sprague-Dawley종의 숫쥐를 실험식이에 따라 대조군, F0, FI, FII군으로 나누어 4,8,16주 동안 사육하였다. 식이지방수준은 10%(w/w)로 대조군 에게는 대두유를, 魚油군들(F)에게는 menhaden oil:대두우(9:1)의 혼합유를 주었고, vitamin E 수준은 대조군 30, F0군 2, FI군 30, FII군 140 T.E 이었다. F0군의 혈장 vitamin E는 극미량이었고, 간과지방조직에서도 제일 낮았으며, 기간이 길어짐에 따라 감소하였다. FI,FII군의 혈장 vitamin E 수준은 ml당으로는 대조군에 비하여 낮았으나, mg lipid 당으로는 같거나 높았거, 간에서는 8주에, 지방조직에서는 16주에 그 함량이 높은 현상을 보였고, 모든 조직에서 FII군이 FI군보다 높은 경향이었다. 혈장 TBARS값도 ml당으로 보면, FI,FII군이 대조군보다 낮은 추세였으나 mg lipid당으로는 높았고, FII군은 FI군에 비하여 낮은 경향이었다. 그러나 간조직 지질과산화물은 16주에 FII군만 제외하고, 어유군들이 대조군에 비하여 높아 FO>FI>FII>대조군 순이었다. 혈장과 간조직의 vitamin A, 혈액 GSH는 대체로 FII과 대조군이 비슷하게 제일 높고, FI,FO순으로 낮아지는 경향이있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 식이지방 종류와 vitamin E의 수준이 체내 과산화물 생성뿐 아니라 체내의 여러 황산화기능 관련문질의 상태에 영향을 주고 있다고 결론을 지을 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of vitamin E on the oxidative damage and glomerular filteration rates(GFR) of kidney in streptozotocin(STZ) induced diabetic rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats weihing 100$\pm$10gm were randomly assigned to one normal and three STZ-induced diabetic groups which were subdivided into vitamin E free diet(DM-0E group)40mg vitamin E per kg diet(DM-40E group) and 400mg vitamin E per kg diet (DM-400E group), Vitamin E level of normal group was 40mg per kg diet. diabetes was experimentally induced by intravenous injection of 55mg/kg of body weight of STZ in citrate buffer(pH 4.3) after 4 weeks feeding of experimental diets. Animals were sacrificed at the 6th day of diabetic states. Activities of xanthine oxidase(XOD) in DM-0E DM-40 and DM-400E groups were significantly increased by 133%, 110%, and 74% respectively compared to normal group. The contents of microsomal superoxide radical(O2) in kidney were 106% and 119% higher of DM-0E and DM-40E groups than normal group respectively but that of DM-400E group was similar to normal group. The level of urnary microalbumin in DM-0E group was increased as 5 times much as normal group at the 6th day. Those of DM-40E and DM-400E groups were decreased to 16% and 36% respectively compared to DM-0E group. The content of urinary $\beta$2-microglobulin in DM-0E DM-40E and DM-400E group were increased by 268%, 181% and 163% respectively compared to normal group. GFR in DM-0E and DM-40E were significantly increased but was nor significantly different from DM-400E groups compared to normal group. In conclusion the supplementation of dietary vitamin E reduced peroxidative damage of renal glomerular and renal dysfunction in diabetic rats.
