Abstract

Caesalpinia sappan L. is an indeciduous tree distributed in China, India, Miyanmar and Vietnam. Its heartwood has long been used in oriental folk medicines to treat diseases. In this study, antioxidative activities of Caesalpinia sappan L. and the effect of gamma irradiation on its chemical and biological properties were investigated. The ethyl acetate fraction (EtOAc fr.) of Caesalpinia sappan L. was irradiated with 100 kGy of gamma ray. The dark red color of EtOAc fr. was significantly (p<0.05) removed by irradiation (Hunter L and b values increased and a value decreased). The total phenolic content of EtOAc fr. was 865 mg/g and it was increased to 1195 mg/g by gamma irradiation. DPPH radical and superoxide anion radical scavenging activities and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity of EtOAc fr. were very high and its activities were also increased by gamma irradiation. EtOAc fr. also inhibited the irradiation-induced DNA damage of lymphocyte as determined by comet assay. In conclusion, EtOAc fr. of Caesalpinia sappan L. extract showed high antioxidative activities in vitro. Furthermore, gamma irradiation on EtOAc fr. ameliorated the color and antioxidative properties. Therefore, it can be suggested that Caesalpinia sappan L. may be a good material for antioxidant function and gamma irradiation may be applied for the improvement of chemical and biological properties of Caesalpinia sappan L.

본 연구에서는 소목 열수추출물을 용매 순차 분획하여 얻은 EtOAc 분획물을 가지고 감마선 조사(100 kGy)한 후 색상 변화와 항산화활성 향상 변화를 평가하였다. 평가시험으로서 소목 용매 순차 분획물과 선정된 EtOAc 분획물에 감마선을 조사(100 kGy)후 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성에서 4가지 유기용매 분획물(chloroform, ethylacetate, n-butanol, $H_{2}O$) 중 EtOAc 분획물의 전자공여능 $IC_{50}$ 값이 비조사구와 조사구 각각 0.71 및 0.61 ${\mu}g/mL$로 현저히 높았으며, 비조사구와 조사구 각각 $38.5{\sim}91.5%$ 및 $45.7{\sim}94.8%$의 라디칼 소거활성을 보여 조사구의 활성이 높게 나타났다. 또한 감마선 조사(100 kGy)한 EtOAc 분획물의 색상 변화는 명도(L값) 및 황색도(b값)의 경우 조사 후 증가한 반면, 적색도(a값)는 감소하였다. 총 페놀 함량은 비조사구와 조사구 각각 865 및 1195 mg/g으로 조사 후 유의적인 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). Superoxide anion radical 소거활성 시험에서 EtOAc 분획물의 비조사구와 조사구 각각 $16.3{\sim}84.7%$ 및 $20.2{\sim}92.5%$로 조사구의 superoxide anion radical에 대한 소거활성이 높게 나타내었고 첨가수준 50 ${\mu}g/mL$ 이상의 농도에서는 60% 이상의 소거력을 나타내었다. 지질과산화 억제 시험에서 EtOAc 분획물의 비조사구와 조사구 각각 $14.6{\sim}85.6%$ 및 $19.5{\sim}93.4%$로 조사구의 지질과산화에 대한 억제 효과가 높게 나타내었고 첨가수준 0.4 ${\mu}g/mL$와 0.8 ${\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서는 비조사 시료에 비해 유의적으로 높은 활성을 나타내었다(p<0.05). Comet assay를 이용한 EtOAc 분획물의DNA 방어효과 시험에서 생쥐 림프구에서 방사선에 의한 DNA 외가닥 절단 정도를 측정한 결과 TM 값은 정상대조군에서 $3.85({\pm}0.15)$이었고 방사선 조사군의 경우 $22.6({\pm}0.38)$로 증가되었다. 감마선 조사시킨 시료처리군의 경우 10 ${\mu}g/mL$에서 각각 $15.6({\pm}0.28)$, $12.01({\pm}0.31)$로서 DNA의 외가닥 절단에 대한 유의한 억제효과를 관찰할 수 있었다(p<0.05). 이러한 결과는 소목의 구성성분 중 brazilein, brazilin, gallic acid, quercetin 같은 다양한 페놀성 화합물과 플라보노이드의 배당체들이 방사선 조사에 의해 이탈됨에 따른 페놀 함량이 증가하여 항산화 활성도 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 소목 추출물에 감마선 조사기술을 이용한다면 항산화 활성의 향상과 색택 개선 등 산업적으로 활용도가 높은 천연소재를 제조할 수 있으리라 사료된다.
