Screening of Extracts from Marine Green and Brown Algae in Jeju for Potential Marine Angiotensin-I Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitory Activity

제주 자생 해양 녹조류와 갈조류 추출물로부터의 항고혈압 활성

This study was conducted to screen in vitro angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of methanol (MeOH) and aqueous extracts which were prepared by four different extractions-80% methanol extracts(ME) at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;70^{\circ}C$, respectively and aqueous extracts (AE) at both temperatures with the residue of the MEs-of ten marine green algae and nineteen brown algae collected along Jeju coast of Korea. Most marine brown algae extracts showed higher capacities than those of marine green algae in ACE inhibitory activity. Particularly, $70^{\circ}C$ MeOH extract (70ME) of Hizikia fusiforme showed the strongest inhibition activity (about 87%) among all the extracts. Also, 70 MEs of Enteromorpha linza, Ishige sinicola, Laminaria ochotensis, Petrospongium rugosum, Sagrassum horneri, Undaria pinnatifida and $20^{\circ}C$ MeOH extracts (20ME) of Myagropsis myagroides, Petrospongium rugosum, $20^{\circ}C$ aqueous extracts (20AE) of Codium contractum, Enteromorpha compressa, and $70^{\circ}C$ aqueous extracts (70AE) of Ecklonia cava, Petrospongium rugosum showed moderate ACE inhibitory activities more than 50% and the other extracts exhibited weak activities. On tile other hand, E. cava had the best ACE inhibitory activity among 70AEs. This indicates that 70AE of E. cava contains potential anti-ACE macromolecular. We tried to proteolytic digest 70AE of E. cava to induce production of anti-ACE peptides from E. cava 70AE. The enzymes used are five pretenses including Kojizyme, Flavourzyme, Neutrase, Alcalase, and Protamex, which are food grade-commercial enzymes from Novo Co. Flavourzyme-digest of E. cava 70AE showed the highest inhibitory activity about 90%. And the five different enzymatic digests of the E. cava 70AE ranged from 2.33 to 3.56 ${\mu}g/mL$, respectively in $IC_{50}$ values of anti-ACE activity.

제주 연안에 서식하는 해양 녹조류와 갈조류의 항고혈압 활성을 알아보기 위해 해조류로부터 메탄올과 물을 이용하여 상온($20^{\circ}C$)과 $70^{\circ}C$에서 각각 4가지 종류의 추출물을 제조하여 스크리닝하였다. 결과, 녹조류에서는 비교적 낮은 ACE 저해활성을 보였으나, 갈조류에서는 70ME 잇바디괭생이모자반, 말미역, 바위주름, 넓패, 톳, 다시마 및 70AE 감태에서 ACE 저해활성이 높게 나타났다. 또한 70AE 감태의 가수분해물은 $2.33{\sim}3.56{\mu}g/mL$의 $IC_{50}$값을 보여 매우 높은 ACE 저해활성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 해조류의 ACE 저해활성이 수용성 추출물뿐만 아니라 메탄올 추출물에서도 나타나는 것은 해조류 유래 fucoxanthin, phlorotannin 및 polyphenol계 화합물 등에 의한 영향도 있을 것으로 사료된다.
