Recently new soybean saponins with D DMP (2,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-2,3,- dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one) moiety have been isolated from legumes. The purpose of this study is to characterize ROS scavenging activities of DDMP saponins ($\alpha$g, $\beta$g saponin) isolated from Glycine max (L.) Merrill. The scavenging activity on OH was examined in terms of lipid peroxidation in the rat liver homogenates and the same activity on $O_2$ was also determined in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system, respectively. Up to 0.25 mg DDMP saponins ($\alpha$g and $\beta$g saponins) did not cause any significant effects on the prevention of lipid peroxidation as compared with the control group. In terms of superoxide scavenging activities, 0.25 and 0.5 mg $\alpha$g saponin inhibits only 2.6% and 5.5% (p<0.05) of the control group, respectively. However, $\alpha$g saponin dose-dependently (p<0.01, r=0.955) inhibits the formation of superoxide radical unto 21.3% of the control group with a maximal dose of 0.5 mg (p<0.01), equivalent to 0.17 units of superoxide dismutase activity.

프로필렌을 선택산화시켜 아크로레인을 제조하는 반응을 Bi-molybdate 촉매상에서 고정층 반응기를 사용하여 연구하였다. ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$위에 $MoO_3$를 담지시킨 M/BM-series 촉매는 함침법으로 제조되었고, 역으로 BM/M-series 촉매는 $MoO_3$위에 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$을 침전시켜 제조하였다. 또한 촉매의 특성분석을 위하여 질소흡착과 XRD, SEM을 이용하였다. M/BM-series 촉매에서는 $MoO_3$가 작은 입자로 분산되고 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$의 결정구조는 $MoO_3$상이 추가되어도 그 형상이 변하지 않는 채로 유지되었으나, BM/M-series 촉매의 표면형상 및 전체 구조는 촉매제조 중에 생기는 침전물인 $Bi(OH)_3$가 소성 도중 $MoO_3$와 반응하여 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$을 형성하는 관계로 그 조성에 따라 매우 불규칙적으로 변화하였다. 반응실험 결과, 두 종류의 촉매 모두에서 excess $MoO_3$가 포함되었을 때 활성이 크게 증가하였는데, 이는 선별산화반응이 주로 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$에서 일어나고 $MoO_3$는 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$에 산소 공급을 원활히 하여 활성을 증가시키기 때문으로 판명되었다. 또한 이러한 활성 증가는 ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$와 기계적 혼합물 (mechanical mixture)에서도 관찰되었다.

Purpose: Obesity is associated with alterations in vitamin D metabolism and elevation of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Increased PTH level in obesity is likely one of the factors contributing to the dysregulation of vitamin D metabolism. We investigated the effects of lowering the PTH level in high-fat diet-induced obese mice on vitamin D metabolism. Methods: Five-week-old male C57BL/6N mice were fed either with control (10% energy as fat) or high-fat (60% energy as fat) diets ad libitum for 12 weeks, and vehicle or cinacalcet HCl (30 ㎍/g body weight) was gavaged daily during the final week of the experiment. The following groups were studied: CON (control diet + vehicle), HFD (high-fat diet + vehicle), and HFD-CIN (high-fat diet + cinacalcet HCl). PTH, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]₂D), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), calcium, and phosphate levels in circulation, and the expression of genes related to vitamin D metabolism in the liver and kidneys were determined. Results: Renal 1α-hydroxylase expression in the HFD group was higher than that in the CON group despite the lack of a difference in the PTH levels between the 2 groups. The plasma PTH level in the HFD-CIN group was 60% lower than that in the HFD group (p < 0.05). In parallel, the HFD-CIN group had lower adipose tissue amount (9% lower), renal 1α-hydroxylase expression (48% lower), and plasma 1,25(OH)₂D concentration (38% lower) than the HFD group. Conclusion: Lowering the PTH levels in high-fat diet-induced obese mice recovered the expression of renal 1α-hydroxylase and might be associated with lower amounts of white adipose tissue.

Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent stimulator of bone resorption in periodontitis. Co-culture systems of mouse calvaria-derived osteoblasts and bone marrow-derived preosteoclasts were used as an in vitro osteoclast differentiation. This study revealed that co-cultures using ddY or ICR mouse strain responded differently to LPS while responded equally to $1{\alpha},25(OH)_2D_3$. Thus, the different response to LPS indicates dissimilarity of two mouse stains in their capacity for generating osteoclasts while the two mouse strains share the similarity in response to $1{\alpha},25(OH)_2D_3$. To identify which cells between osteoblasts and preosteoclasts in the co-culture are responsible for the dissimilarity, the reciprocal co-cultures were performed between ddY and ICR mouse strains. The treatment of $1,25(OH)_2D_3$ to ddY/ICR (osteoblasts from ddY/preosteoclasts from ICR) and ICR/ddY reciprocal co-cultures also showed the similarity. In case of LPS treatment, the results of ddY/ICR were similar to ddY/ddY and the results of the other reciprocal co-culture, ICR/ddY combination, were consistent with those of ICR/ICR. It suggests that the dissimilarity between the two mouse strains may resident in osteoblasts but not in preosteoclasts. Therefore, the osteoblast is responsible for mouse strain-dependent osteoclastogenesis in response to LPS. Although mouse models will continue to provide insights into molecular mechanisms of osteoclastogenesis, caution should be exercised when using different mouse strains, especially ddY and ICR strains as models for osteoclast differentiation.

Seven flavonol glycosides from the EtOAc fraction of Ginkgo biloba leaves were identified by high performance liquid chromatography. Separation by reversed phase chromatography on $Lichrosorb^{\circledR}$ RP-18 column was achieved by isocratic elution. The content of the major acylated flavonol glycoside, kaempferol 3-0-[$6'-O-{p}-coumaroyl-{\beta}-_D-glucosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\alpha}-_L-rhamnoside$] was about 8.0% and 0.55% for EtOAc fraction and MeOH extract, respectively.
