헛개나무 열매를 주성분으로 제조한 새로운 처방이 알코올 분해 및 간 손상에 미치는 영향

Abstract

We investigated whether two-kinds of mixture (NHDT-1 and NHDT-2) mainly composed of Hovenia dulcis Thunb had beneficial actions for alcohol and acetaldehyde degradation in acute alcohol treatment and liver protection from fatty liver induced by chronic alcohol administration. In acute alcohol degradation experiment, serum alcohol and acetaldehyde concentrations exhibited lower 1, 3 and 5 hours after taking 3 g ethanol per kg body weight in NHDT-1 treated rats, but not NHDT-2 including ginseng. On the contrast to the acute effect on alcohol degradation, the long-term alcohol administration revealed that NHDT-2, not NHDT-1, protected the increase in serum concentration of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotrasferase and ${\gamma}-triglyceride$ metabolism similar to the rats not consuming alcohol, leading to decreased triglyceride accumulation in blood and liver. In liver morphological study, NHDT-1 preserved the regular hepatocyte morphology, decreased fat accumulation and reduced sinusoidal leukocyte infiltration in hepatocytes. In conclusion, NHDT-1 plays an important role in alcohol and acetaldehyde degradation without protecting liver damage while NHDT-2 works as hepatocyte protector from alcohol mediated damage.

본 연구에서는 헛개나무열매를 주성분으로 제조한 두 종류의 혼합물들(NHDT-1과 NHDT-2)이 알코올 및 아세트알데히드의 분해를 촉진시켜 숙취의 발생을 저하시킬 수 있는지 여부와 만성적으로 알코올을 복용시켰을 때 간손상 및 지방간의 발생을 억제할 수 있는지 여부를 조사하였다. NHDT-1은 헛개나무열매에 진피, 창출 및 감초를 첨가하여 제조하였고, NHDT-2는 NHDT-1에 홍삼을 첨가하여 제조하였다. NHDT-1과 NHDT-2의 조성 차이는 홍삼임에도 불구하고 백서에게 투여하였을 때 알코올 및 아세트알데히드의 분해와 간손상을 억제하는 작용에는 차이가 있었다. 홍삼이 함유되어있지 않은 NHDT-1은 급성 알코올 실험에서 알코올 및 아세트알데히드 분해를 촉진시켜 혈청농도를 저하시켰으나, 홍삼이 함유된 NHDT-2는 혈청 알코올과 아세트알데히드 농도를 저하시키지 못했다. 급성실험과는 반대로 장기간 알코올을 투여한 실험에서는 NHDT-1은 NHDT-2에 비해 알코올로 인한 간의 손상과 지방간 발생을 억제하지 못했다. 결론적으로 간기능이 좋은 상태에서 일시적으로 복용하는 경우에는 NHDT-1이 알코올과 아세트알데히드의 분해를 촉진하여 숙취해소에 효과적이지만, 간이 좋지 않은 상태에서는 장기간동안 NHDT-2를 복용하여 간의 기능을 향상시키는 것이 음주 후 숙취제거에 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.
