초록

타우린은 심혈관 질환을 예방하고 간 기능 개선 및 당뇨병 및 혈소판 기능을 향상시키는 여러 작용을 보고하고 있다. 하지만, 타우린이 인체에 미치는 영향에 대하여 우리나라에서 연구된 결과가 많지 않다. 이에 기본 용량을 복용 후 혈당질환과 간질환, 지질 질환에 대한 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상자는 타우린 복용군 15명과 대조군 15명을 대상으로 시행하였다. 타우린은 기본 용량인 1,000 mg을 식후에 2주 동안 복용 후 변화를 확인하였다. 대상자 모두 기숙사에서 제공하는 식사 외에 약이나 기타 음식을 절제하도록 하였다. 그 결과 타우린 복용군에서 간 기능 검사인 GGT는 섭취 전 $23.53{\pm}25.73IU/L$, 섭취 후 $15.15{\pm}4.91IU/L$로 감소하였다(P=0.186). 지질 대사인 TG는 섭취 전 $100.4{\pm}28.33mg/dL$, 섭취 후 $80.22{\pm}17.08mg/dL$로 유의한 결과를 보였다(P<0.05). T-cho, LDL-C이 감소를 보였고, HDL-C이 약간 증가를 보였다. 결과적으로 간 기능과 지질대사 개선에 도움을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 혈액학적 검사에서는 segmented neutrophil 백분율이 감소하고, lymphocyte 백분율이 증가를 보였다. 결과적으로 면역학적 기능과 관계가 있으리라 사료된다.

Taurine has been reported to prevent cardiovascular disease and improve liver function, diabetes, and platelet function. However, there are few studies on the effects of taurine in Koreans. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of basal doses of taurine on blood glucose, liver disease, and lipid diseases among Korean college students. The study included a taurine intake group and a control group; each group consisted of 15 students. Taurine was administered at a standard dose of 1,000 mg for 2 weeks postprandial. All subjects were excluded from medication or other food besides meals provided by the dormitory. The liver test gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) in the taurine group decreased to $23.53{\pm}25.73IU/L$ before intake and to $15.15{\pm}4.91IU/L$ after intake (P=0.186). Lipid metabolite triglyceride (TG) was $100.42{\pm}28.33mg/dL$ before intake and $80.22{\pm}17.08mg/dL$ after intake (P<0.05). Total cholesterol (T-Cho), low density cholesterol (LDL-C), and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Consequently, taurine improved liver function and lipid metabolism. Hematologic tests showed a decrease in segmented neutrophil percentage and an increase in lymphocyte percentage. Thus, taurine also seems to be related to immunological function.
