초록

본 연구는 녹용 추출물이 scopolamine으로 기억손상을 유발한 실험동물의 기억력 개선과 AChE, MAO-B의 활성억제, 신경전달 물질인 ACh 함량을 치매 치료제인 tacrine과 비교하여 분석하였다. 공간인지력을 평가하는 Morris water maze test에서 scopolamine(2 mg/kg, i.p.)으로 기억손상을 유발한 경우 4일간의 인지훈련에도 불구하고 platform을 찾아가는 escape latency 시간이 증가되었으며, tacrine과 녹용추출물 투여군은 훈련 2일째부터 유의적으로 escape latency 시간이 감소하였다. 실험 5일째 platform을 제거한 probe test에서도 녹용 추출물 처리군은 scopolamine 처리군보다도 escape latency 시간이 유의적으로 감소하여 장기기억 개선효과가 있음을 보여주었다. 뇌의 신경전달물질인 ACh 생성은 대조군 대비 scopolamine 투여군은 84.7% 감소하였으나, 녹용 추출물 투여군(97.5%)은 치매 치료제인 tacrine(97.8%)과 비슷하게 정상적인 수치로 ACh 생성량을 증가시켰다. Tacrine 처리군은 scopolamine 투여로 상승한 뇌조직과 혈청의 AChE 활성을 유의적으로 감소시켰고, 녹용 추출물 처리군은 뇌조직의 AChE 활성을 유의적으로 감소시켰다. 뇌조직의 MAO-B 활성은 그룹 간 유의적인 차이는 없었으나, tacrine과 녹용 추출물 처리군이 scopolamine 투여군보다 MAO-B 활성을 감소시키는 경향을 보였다. 따라서 녹용 추출물은 scopolamine으로 기억손상을 유발한 치매 동물모델에서 신경전달물질을 분해하는 효소의 활성을 저해함으로써 장기기억 활성을 촉진하고 콜린성 신경계를 자극하여 기억 및 학습 증진에 효과적으로 작용하는 천연물 유래 기능성 물질로 사료된다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the ameliorating effects of deer antler extract on the learning and memory impairments induced by the administration of scopolamine (2 mg/kg, i.p.) in rats. Tacrine was used as a positive control agent for evaluating the cognition enhancing activity of deer antler extract in scopolamine-induced amnesia models. The results showed that the deer antler extract-treated group (200 mg/kg, p.o.) and the tacrine-treated group (10 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly ameliorated scopolamine-induced amnesia based on the Morris water maze test. Although there was no statistical significance of brain ACh contents among the experimental groups, the brain ACh contents of the deer antler extract-treated group was slightly higher than that of the scopolamine-treated group. The inhibitory effect of deer antler extract on the acetylcholinesterase activity in the brain was significantly lower than that of scopolamine-treated group. The tacrine- and the deer antler-treated groups reduced the MAO-B activity compared to the scopolamine-treated group, but not significantly. These results suggest that the deer antler extract could be an effective agent for the prevention of the cognitive impairment induced by cholinergic dysfunction.
