Abstract

In order to determine the effects of puffing red ginseng (PRG) powder on the antioxidant enzyme activities of hepatotoxicity in benzo($\alpha$) pyrene[B($\alpha$)P]-treated mice, the mice were divided into 5 groups. The dried red ginseng were prepared by puffing conditions of moisture content 10% and puffing pressure $5\;kgf/cm^2$, and then powdered. PRG powder was injected i.p. once a day for 5 successive days, followed by the administration of B($\alpha$)P treatment on the fifth day. We also evaluated the relationship between lipid peroxidation and PRG powder on oxidative stress. The increased activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase observed following B($\alpha$)P-treatment were reduced by the treatment of PRG powder. Whereas the glutathione content and glutathione S-transferase activity depleted by B $\alpha$)P were significantly increased, the B($\alpha$)P-associated elevation of cytochrome P-450 activities and lipid peroxide content were reduced as the result of PRG powder treatment. Especially, PRG powder had higher antioxidant activities than RG powder. These results suggest that puffing red ginseng powder can protect against B($\alpha$)P intoxicification through its antioxidant properties.

팽화홍삼분말이 B($\alpha$)P의 투여에 의한 간 독성이 유발된 마우스에서의 글루타치온 및 과산화지질 함량, 항산화 효소활성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. B($\alpha$)P 투여에 의해 증가된 혈청 내 ALT와 AST의 활성이 팽화홍삼분말을 투여하면 감소하였다. 간 조직중의 SOD, catalase 그리고 GSH-Px의 활성도 B($\alpha$)P 투여로 유의적으로 증가되었다가, 팽화홍삼분말의 투여로 이들 활성이 유의적으로 감소하였고, 반면, 글루타치온 함량과 GST 활성은 B $\alpha$)P 단독군에서는 감소되었다가 팽화홍삼분말 투여 시 유의적인 증가를 보였다. 그러나 cytochrome P-450 활성과 지질과산화물 함량은 B ($\alpha$)P 투여 시 증가되었다가 팽화홍삼분말의 투여 시 유의적으로 감소되었다. 특히 홍삼분말보다 팽화시킨 홍삼분말에서 더 큰 항산화능을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 팽화홍삼분말은 항산화 효소의 활성에 의한 B($\alpha$)P에 의한 간 손상에 대한 보호효과를 가지는 것으로 사료된다.
