Abstract

In order to develop samultang with reduced side effects, modified samultang using omija was oral administered to rats with ovarian resection, and changes in evaluation indicators of functional efficacy in women's menopause were measured. In weight gain, relative weight of uterus and vagina, blood lipid-related indicators, and changes in blood estradiol, there was no statistically significant improvement effect in modified Samultang compared to the control group. However, the expression of estrogen receptor alpha and beta in intrauterine tissue tended to increase, and the expression of phosphorylated ERK, which is known to be involved in estrogen receptor signaling, showed a significant increase in activation in ERK and AKT. The expression amount of phosphorylation AKT was not significant, but showed an increasing tendency. Even though the test substance was administered in a relatively small dose, it is judged that the test substance modified Samultang has the ability to activate estrogen receptor. In the future, it is expected that it can be used as a useful natural mixture to show the efficacy of samultang with fewer gastrointestinal disorders.

부작용을 줄인 사물탕을 개발하고자 오미자를 사용한 변형 사물탕을 난소를 절제한 랫드에 경구투여하고 여성갱년기 기능성 효능의 평가지표 변화를 측정하였다. 체중 증가, 자궁과 질의 상대 장기중량, 혈중 지질관련 지표, 혈중 estradiol 의 변화에서 대조군과 비교하여 변형 사물탕이 통계적으로 유의한 개선효과는 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 자궁 조직내 단백질 변화에서 estrogen receptor alpha 와 beta 의 발현이 증가하는 경향성이 관찰되었고 estrogen receptor 신호전달에 관여하는 것으로 알려진 ERK와 AKT에서 활성화에 기여하는 인산화 ERK의 발현량이 유의한 증가를 나타내었고 인산화 AKT의 발현량은 유의하진 않지만 증가하는 경향성을 나타내었다. 난소절제로 유도한 여성갱년기 모델에서 시험물질 변형 사물탕을 비교적 적은 용량 투여했음에도 이러한 결과를 나타내는 것은 시험물질인 변형 사물탕에 estrogen receptor를 활성화시키는 능력이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 추후 위장장애가 적으면서 사물탕의 효능을 나타내고자 할 때 유용한 천연물 배합으로 이용이 가능할 것으로 본다.
