Abstract

The effects of acetic acid fermented juice prepared with submerged culture media of Antrodia camphorata mycelium (AJA: pH 3.2, acidity 2.0, Brix degree 3.2) on blood glucose levels and serum lipid profiles of rats in which diabetes was induced with streptozotocin (STZ) were investigated. Rats were divided into normal controls (NC), diabetic controls (DM), and groups receiving diluted (1:1, with water) AJA (A1) and undiluted AJA (A2). The volume of liquid given to both A1 and A2 animals was 0.5 mL/100 g body weight. In the A1 and A2 groups, compared with the DM group, polyphagia, liver enlargement, and weight loss caused by diabetes were considerably alleviated, but did not attain the levels of NC group rats. In the A1 and A2 groups, the levels of blood glucose were 17.1% and 28.2% lower than in the DM group. There was no significant difference in the levels of fructosamine between the DM and A1 group, but the A2 group had a level 16.3% lower than the DM group. In the A1 and A2 groups, compared with the DM group, serum triglyceride levels decreased by 44.1-48.0%, serum total cholesterol by 24.0-31.1%, and serum LDL-cholesterol by 25.2-51.1%. The level of HDL-cholesterol in A2 animals rose by 45.9% compared to NC rats. The results show that AJA may be a useful beverage for diabetes patients, offering both antihyperglycemic activity and improvement in levels of serum lipids.

우장지버섯 균사체 배양액으로 발효시킨 초산발효액 (AJA: pH 3.2, acidity 2.0, brix degree 3.2)이 streptozotocin으로 유발한 당뇨쥐의 혈당과 혈청지질에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 실험용 식이는 AIN-76 diet를 기본으로 하여 조제하였으며 실험동물은 5주령의 평균체중이 $140{\pm}10\;g$인 Sprague-Dawly계 흰쥐를 사용하여 정상대조군(NC), 당뇨 대조군(DM), 당뇨유발 후 체중 100 g당 AJA 1/2 희석액 0.5 mL 경구투여군(A1) 및 당뇨유발 후 체중 100 g당 AJA 0.5 mL 경구투여군(A2)의 4군으로 나누어 5주간 경구 투여하였다. A1 및 A2군은 DM군에 비하여 당뇨에 의하여 나타나는 다음 및 체중감소현상과 간의 비대현상이 완화되었다. A1 및 A2군의 5주째 혈당은 DM군에 비하여 17.1 및 28.2%가 감소되었으며, fructosamine의 함량은 A1군에서는 뚜렷한 차이가 없었으나 A2군에서는 16.3%가 감소되었다. A1 및 A2군은 DM군에 비하여 혈중 triglyceride 함량은 $44.1{\sim}48.0%$가, total cholesterol 함량은 $24.0{\sim}31.1%$가, LDL-cholesterol 함량은 $25.2{\sim}51.1%$가 각각 감소하였으며, HDL-cholesterol 함량은 A1군에서는 유의차가 없었으나 A2군에서는 45.9%가 증가하였다. 이상의 결과, 우장지버섯 균사체배양액으로 제조한 초산발효액은 STZ로 유도한 고혈당을 완화시키는 항당뇨작용과 혈중지질대사를 개선 시켜주는 효과가 있어 앞으로의 활용이 기대된다.
