초록

본 연구는 3주간 $CCl_4$를 투여한 랫트를 이용하여 각 장기 및 혈액 생화학치의 변화를 조사, 과산화지질가를 감도가 좋은 형광발광 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용해 측정, 간세포를 전자현미경적으로 관찰 등의 방밥으로 간기능에 미치는 PRC의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 실시하였다. 그 결과, PRC투여군은 정상대조군에 비하여 체중은 감소하고, 상대적 간장 중량의 감소경향, GOT 및 GPT의 수치가 감소하였으며, 특히 과산화물가가 유의하게(p<0.001) 감소하였다. 이로 인한 결과를 명확히 뒷받침해 주고 있는 간세포에 대한 전자현미경적 관찰의 결과는 RPC투여의 효과를 간세포의 형태학적 관찰에서 간세포에 대한 PRC의 효과를 나타내 주었다. 이 결과는 칡 카테킨이 사염화탄소로 유도된 간장의 과산화지질의 형성을 방지해서 간기능을 회복시키는데 효과적이라는 것을 시사한다 하겠다.

These studies were carried out to investigate the effects of Puerariae radix catechins(PRC) administration on the biochemical parameters of liver function in liver of carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)-treated rats. Thirty six healthy Sprague-Dawley rats weighing about 120g were used for this experiment and divided intot he following 3 groups : normal control group(NCON), $CCl_4$ control group(CCON), PRC treated group(PRC). Fifty percent $CCl_4$ in oil was administered(I.P.) by 2ml per kg body weight two times a week for 3 weeks. PRC treated groups were administered orally at the leaves of 1% per day in distilled water for 8 weeks. Lipid hydroperoxides were analyzed by using chemiluminescence-high performance liquid chromatography(CL-HPLC) method as a phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide value(PCOOH) in liver tissues. $CCl_4$ treatment significantly(p<0.05) resulted in an increase in GPT & GOT activities and liver hydroperoxide values comparing with those of the untreated control, while administration of PRC to the $CCl_4-treated$ rats significantly(p<0.001) decreased GPT & GOT activities and liver hydroperoxide value. Their ultrastructual changes of hepatocellular organelles were shown to clarify the morphologic nature of protective effects of PRC on hepatocytic injuries. $CCl_4$ treatment observed to change the ultrastructual nature of outer membrane of hepatocytes. However, the hepatic changes on PRC treatment to $CCl_4$ group was not found. PRC administration may inhibit the formatiion of liver lipid hydroperoxides in vivo and were very effective in recovering the liver function in $CCl_4-treated$ rats.
