Abstract

This study investigated the biological activities and chemical characteristics of Monascus-fermented Angelica gigas Nakai (A. gigas) with a view to the development of health foods. We also investigated the effect of the cultivation region of three A. gigas cultivars, namely Sancheong, Pyeongchang, and Jecheon. After fermentation, the content of decursin and decursinol angelate was increased compared to non-fermentation; the highest content of decursin and decursinol angelate was found in non-fermentation Pyeongchang A. gigas (PA) at 615.504, 326.742 ppm and fermented Pyeongchang A. gigas (FPA) at 792.610, 429.500 ppm, respectively. The highest content of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and minerals was found in the FPA group, in which DPPH (${\alpha},{\alpha}^{\prime}-diphenyl-{\beta}-picrylhydrazyl$) radical scavenging activity and Fe/Cu reducing power were stronger in fermented than in non-fermented A. gigas. The FPA group in particular showed the highest activity. We measured nitric oxide (NO) production from lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 cells and the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation. The inhibition of activity of NO production and cancer cell (MCF-7 and Hep3B) viability was significantly decreased in the FPA group. The results suggest that FPA may be highly useful as a health food. Overall, the study provides basic data for understanding the biological activities and chemical characteristics of A. gigas fermented by Monascus purpureus for the development of health foods.

본 연구는 발효 참당귀를 이용한 건강 기능성 식품개발을 위해 산청, 평창 및 제천산 참당귀를 Monascus purpureus로 발효시켜 제조한 발효 참당귀의 이화학적 특성 및 생리활성을 평가하였다. 발효 참당귀의 decursin 및 decursinol angelate 함량은 발효전보다 증가한 바, 평창 참당귀(PA)군의 615.504 및 326.742 ppm이 발효 후 각각 792.610 및 429.500 ppm으로 증가되었다. 총 페놀성 화합물과 플라보노이드 및 미네랄 함량이 발효로 인해 증가하였고, DPPH를 이용한 자유라디칼 소거능 및 Fe, Cu를 이용한 환원력 비교를 통해 발효 참당귀군에서 높게 나타났으며, 이중 FPA군에서 활성이 높은 것을 확인하였다. LPS처리 RAW 264.7세포의 NO생성능과 유방암 세포(MCF-7) 및 간암 세포(Hep3B) 성장 저해능 확인 결과 발효 참당귀군에서 활성이 높게 나타났다. 이와 같이 M. purpureus 발효 산청, 평창 및 제천 참당귀를 비교한 결과 평창 참당귀에서 건강 기능성 식품으로의 활용 가치가 높을 것으로 사료된다.
