Abstract

Three kinds of dietary composites-R+T, R+F, and R+TF-were combined in green tea (T), dietary fiber (F), and green tea dietary fiber mixture (TF) to red garlic extract (RG), respectively. The effects of their diets on anti-obesity were investigated $in$ $vitro$ and $in$ $vitro$ in obese rats induced high fat-cholesterol. In $in$ $vivo$ rats, the total phenolic content of the R+T and R+TF was 1.9~2.0 times higher, and their total cholesterol adsorption was 9.5~11.5 times higher than that of RG. $In$ $vivo$, male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 6 groups (Normal, HFC, HRG, HR+T, HR+F and HR+TF). Afterwards, the diets of the HRG, HR+T, HR+F, and HR+TF groups were supplemented with 1% of RG and its dietary composites (R+T, R+F, and R+TF) for 4 weeks, respectively. The final body weight of the HRG, HR+T, HR+F, and HR+TF groups decreased significantly compared to the group fed high fat-cholesterol (HFC), but the food efficiency ratio was not significantly different from the HFC group. The liver weight of the HFC group doubled compared to the normal group, whereas that of HR+T and HR+TF groups decreased significantly. The weight of visceral and epididymal fat decreased significantly in the groups fed the composites compared to the HFC group. The obesity index of HR+TF group decreased significantly only when compared to the HFC group. The serum lipid profile such as total lipids, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL- and VLDL-cholesterol, as well as the atherogenic index and cardiac risk factors decreased drastically in all experimental groups compared to the HFC group, and the levels of HR+T, HR+F and HR+TF groups were a similar trend. GPT activity was not significantly different among the groups fed the composites, and it decreased significantly in the HRG group. The content of the lipid peroxide level decreased significantly in the HRG group and in the groups fed the composites, compared to the HFC group. Serum antioxidant activity was the highest in the HR+T group. We suggest that the hypolipidemic and anti-obesity effect of the RG composites, achieved by mixing green tea extract and/or dietary fiber, was due to their total phenolic content and total cholesterol adsorption effect.

홍마늘 추출물과 녹차, 식이섬유 및 녹차 식이섬유를 혼합한 3종의 복합물(R+T, R+F 및 R+TF)을 이용하여 고지방-콜레스테롤을 급이한 흰쥐에 대해 항비만 효과를 $in$ $vitro$$in$ $vivo$에서 측정하였다. 녹차 복합물(R+T) 및 녹차 식이섬유 복합물(R+TF)은 홍마늘 추출물(RG)보다 총 페놀 함량이 1.9~2.0배 높았으며, 콜레스테롤 흡착활성은 9.5~11.5배 높은 활성이었다. 실험군은 6군(정상군, 고지방-콜레스테롤 식이 급이군(HFC), R+T 급이군(HR+T), R+F 급이군(HR+F) 및 R+TF 급이군(HR+TF))으로 나누어 각 추출물을 식이에 1% 수준으로 4주간 급이 하였다. 실험군에서 최종 체중은 대조군에 비해 유의적인 감소를 보였으나, 식이효율은 대조군과 유의차가 없었다. 간장의 중량은 정상군에 비해 대조군이 2.0배 정도 증가되었으며, HR+T군과 HR+TF군에서 유의적으로 감소하였다. 내장지방과 부고환 주변지방 함량은 복합물 첨가군에서 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 비만도 지수는 대조군에 비해 HR+TF군에서만 유의적으로 감소하였다. 총 지질, 총 콜레스테롤, 중성지질, LDL- 및 VLDL-콜레스테롤 등의 혈중 지질성분과 동맥경화 지수, 심혈관 질환 위험지수는 대조군에 비해 홍마늘 추출물 및 복합물 첨가군에서 유의적으로 감소하였으나, HR+T군, HR+F군 및 HR+TF군간에는 비슷한 수준이었다. GPT 활성은 복합물 첨가군간에 유의차가 없었으나, 홍마늘 추출물 첨가군보다는 유의적으로 낮은 활성이었다. 지질과 산화물 함량은 대조군에 비해 홍마늘 추출물과 복합물 첨가군에서 유의적으로 감소되었다. 항산화 활성은 HR+T군에서 가장 높았다. 따라서 홍마늘 복합물의 체내 지질 개선 및 항비만 효과는 시료 중의 녹차나 식이섬유의 총 페놀 함량 및 콜레스테롤 흡착활성에 기인된다고 생각된다.
