Abstract

To develop soybean cake as a functional food material, the anti-oxidative and cytotoxic activities against human colon cancer cells of crude saponins isolated from 70% (v/v) ethanol extracts of cake were investigated. The Diaion HP-20 adsorption method was used for isolation of crude saponins, which were then eluted with 100% ethanol. The non-saponin fraction was removed by elution with $H_2O$ and 20% (v/v) ethanol. The results of thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis confirmed that crude saponins were present in the 100% ethanol extract of soybean cake. The hydrogen-donating properties of saponins were more than 60% at a concentration of $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$. malondialdehyde(MDA) production was $1,200\;{\mu}mol\;MDA/g$ in mouse liver homogenate treated with crude saponins at the concentration of $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$. This value was lower than that of the control, which was $3,700\;{\mu}mol\;MDA/g$. Saponins inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Saponins also resulted in a decrease in the proportion of cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, whereas the cell proportion in G2/M phase was increased with $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ saponins. Thus, we conclude that saponins may induce G2/M cell cycle arrest.

본 연구는 폐기되고 있는 대두박을 기능성 식품 원료로 이용하기 위하여 대두박 70%에탄올 추출물로부터 Diaion HP-20 흡착수지를 이용하여 조사포닌을 분리 한 후 이들에 대한 항산화 효과 및 대장암세포 성장 억제효과를 조사하였다. Diaion HP-20 흡착 수지를 이용하여 분획한 물, 20% 및 100% 주정 분획물을 TLC상 확인한 결과 100% 주정분획물에서 조사포닌들이 함유되어 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 대두박 조사포닌은 $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 고농도에서 60% 이상의 수소 공여능을 나타내었다. 또한 대두박 조사포닌이 $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$의 농도로 처리된 흰쥐의 간 균질물에서 MDA의 생성량이 대조군의 $3700\;{\mu}mol\;MDA/g$ liver에 비하여 $1200\;{\mu}mol\;MDA/g$ liver로 낮게 나타내어 대두박 조사포닌은 고농도에서 항산화 효과가 있음을 알 수 있다. 대두박 조사포닌은 인체 대장암(SW480)세포의 성장을 농도 및 시간 의존적으로 억제하였으며, 대두박 조사포닌 $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$의 농도로 처리군에서는 G1 phase의 비율은 감소한 반면 G2/M phase의 비율은 증가하여 G2/M phase를 억제하는 것을 추측할 수 있었다.
