인삼 추출물 제조 부산물인 인삼박의 지용성 성분을 n-hexane 으로 추출하고, 추출물의 항산화 및 항암 활성을 인삼의 n-hexane 추출물과 비교하였다. 인삼박의 hexane 추출물(HEGM)의 총 폴리페놀 화합물 함량은 188.8 mg/100 g으로, 인삼의 hexane 추출물(HEG)의 82%를 함유하고 있었다. HEGM의 DPPH 유리 라디칼 소거활성은 $IC_{50}$이 2.07 mg/mL이었고, 이는 총 폴리페놀 함량과 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. HEG가 농도에 비례하여 인체 폐암세포(A549, $GI_{50}=20.0{\mu}g/mL$)와 대장암세포 (SNU-C4, $GI_{50}=37.0{\mu}g/mL$)의 생육을 억제하는 것과 동일한 양상으로 HEGM도 폐암세포($GI_{50}=34.0{\mu}g/mL$)와 대장암세포($GI_{50}=45.2{\mu}g/mL$)의 생육을 효과적으로 억제하였다. 따라서, 본 연구는 인삼박에서 얻어진 HEGM이 항산화 및 항암 활성을 갖는 자원으로서의 활용 가능성을 보여주었다.

현재 알츠하이머 질환의 주요한 치료제는 아세틸콜린 분해 저해제(acetylcholinesterase inhibitors)이나, tacrine의 경우 간독성 때문에 지금은 거의 사용되지 않고 있다. 이외에 알츠하이머 질환의 잠재적 치료로서 항산화제와 항아밀로이드 요법이 대두되어 치매의 예방 및 치료를 위한 무독성의 약물 개발을 위해서 많은 연구가 수행되고 있으나 아직까지 치매의 발병 기전이나 뚜렷한 효능을 가진 치료제에 대한 보고가 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 새로운 자원에서 알츠하이머 질환의 치료제로서의 가능성을 탐색하고자 전초 추출물 35종과 부위별 추출물 36종의 식물 추출물 71종에서 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 PEP 활성 저해율을 측정하였다. 항산화 활성을 살펴 본 결과, 식물 전초에서는 땃딸기(Fragaria yezoensis)에서 $90.4\%$의 라디칼 제거 효과를 보였고, 은행나무(Gingko biloba), 치자나무(Gardenia jasminoides for. grandiflora), 산철쭉(Rhododendron yedoensa var. poukhanense)등의 줄기, 털진달래(Rhododendron mucronulatum var. ciliatum), 치자나무(Gardenia jasminoides for. grandiflora)와 물개암나무(Corylus sieboldiana var. mandshurice)의 잎 부위에서 $88\%$ 이상의 높은 라디칼 제거 효과를, 산수유(Cornus officinalis) 열매 부위 추출물에서는 약 $95\%$ DPPH 라디칼 제거 효과를, 은행나무(Gi템 biloba), 우산고로쇠(Acerokamotoaum)등의 뿌리 부위에서 $85\%$ 이상의 DPPH 라디칼 제거 효과를 보였다. PEP활성의 저해율을 측정하여 비교한 결과, 식물 전초의 경우 딸기(Fragaria ananassa), 땃딸기(Fragaria yezoensis), 고추나물(Hyperircum erectum)에서 높은 저해율을 줄기 부위의 경우 다래(Actinidia arguta), 산철쭉 (Rhododendron yedoensa var. poukhanense)의 줄기 부위, 산철쭉(Rhododendron yedoensa var. poukhanense)과 생열귀나무(Rosa davurica), 삼나무(Cryptomeria japonica), 털진달래(Rhododendron mucronulatum var. ciliatum)의 및 부위에서 90$\%$ 이상의 높은 PEP 활성 저해율을, 산수유(Cornus officinalis)의 열매 추출물이 95.3$\%$의 저해율을, 우산고로쇠(Acer okamotoanum) 뿌리 추출물이 $83.3\%$의 저해율을 나타냈다. 식물 추출물 71종에서 땃딸기(Fragaria yezoensis) 전초, 산수유(Cornus officinalis) 열매 부위의 경우 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 PEP 활성 저해율에서 모두 $90\%$ 이상의 활성을 보이는 등 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 PEP 활성 저해율 사이에 유의수준 0.000에서 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 따라서 PEP 활성 저해 메커니즘에 대한 항산화 작용의 영향을 더욱 더 조사할 필요가 있을 것으로 판단되며, 산수유와 땃딸기와 같은 식물 자원은 항산화활성과 PEP 활성 저해능이 모두 높으므로 알츠하이머 질환의 치료 및 예방 물질로서의 개발 가능성이 큰 것으로 보인다.

The methanolic extract of Rosa davurica Pall. roots exhibited strong antioxidant activity in a 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay and was found to be a dose-dependent inhibitor of non-enzymatic formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which are relevant to diabetes complications. HPLC-diode array detector (DAD) analysis of the R. davurica Pall. root extract led to the identification of four compounds: hydrocaffeic acid, catechin, epicatechin, and ellagic acid. Catechin was present in the largest amount and exhibited high antiglycation activity. A CYP3A4 assay was used to investigate potential interactions between drugs and the extract, and results suggest that the R. davurica Pall. root extract had moderate potential for interfering with drug metabolism. The R. davurica Pall. extract did not display anti-inflammatory activity on the level of that for tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$) in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophage assay; however, the extract did exhibit low to moderate immunostimulatory activity in a pro-inflammatory macrophage assay. Therefore, we conclude that R. davurica Pall. root is a promising anti-AGE agent with low to moderate risks of associated inflammation or drug interaction.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of yam powder addition (0~40%) on the quality characteristics and oxidative stability of yackwa made with rice flour. While most rice flour (34.35%) had a particle size more than $250{\mu}m$, 75% of yam powder had a particle size less than $65{\mu}m$. Width, height, and volume of rice yackwa added with yam powder increased with increasing yam powder content. While L and b values of rice yackwa added with yam powder decreased with increasing yam powder content, a value increased. Hardness and chewiness of rice yackwa added with yam powder increased as storage period increased at $25^{\circ}C$ for 9 days, whereas they decreased with increasing yam powder content. In a discrimination test, brown color, flavor, sweetness, and bitterness increased with increasing yam powder content, whereas hardness decreased. In a preference test, taste, texture, and overall acceptance increased with increasing yam powder content. The acid and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values of rice yackwa added with yam powder increased as storage period increased. However, acid and TBA values of the treated groups decreased with increasing yam powder content compared to the control group. Although 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities decreased with increasing storage period, values increased with increasing yam powder content. It was found that yackwa quality, preference, and oxidative stability increased during storage with increasing yam powder content. From these results, addition of 40% yam powder would be the optimal conditions for making rice yackwa.

Muscle-based by-products are often undervalued although commonly reported having a high amount of natural bioactive peptides. In this study, elastin was isolated from the protein of broiler hen skin while its hydrolysate was prepared using Elastase. Assessment of antioxidative properties of elastin-based hydrolysate (EBH) was based on three different assays; 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) radical, 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical and metal chelating ability. The EBH was purified further using ultrafiltration, gel filtration and Reverse- Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC). The IC₅₀ of ABTS radical activities for EBH were decreased as EBH further purified using ultrafiltration (EBH III; 0.66 mg/mL)>gel filtration (EB-II; 0.42 mg/mL)>RP-HPLC (EB-II4; 0.12 mg/mL). The sequential identification of the peptide was done by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/ TOF-MS) of the potent fractions obtained from RP-HPLC (EB-II4). The presence of hydrophobic amino acids (Val and Pro) in the peptide sequences could potentially contribute to the high antioxidant activity of EBH. The sequences GAHTGPRKPFKPR, GMPGFDVR and ADASVLPK were identified as antioxidant peptides. In conclusion, the antioxidative potential from poultry skin specifically from elastin is evident and can be explored to be used in many applications such as health and pharmaceutical purposes.

This study was conducted to investigate the cognitive improvement and memory recovery effects of Korean and Chinese Crataegus pinnatifida ethanolic extracts on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in mice. In vivo studies were carried out with mice treated with Korean Crataegus pinnatifida extracts (KCF) and Chinese Crataegus pinnatifida extracts (CCF) in doses of 5 and 50 mg/kg (p.o.) and scopolamine was injected 30 min before the behavioral testing. Antioxidant activity was assessed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) assay and 2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assay, and acetylcholinesterase inhibition by Ellman's modified method. The chlorogenic acid and hyperoside as marker compounds of KCF and CCF was quantified by ultra-performance liquid chromatography analysis (UPLC). Results showed that KCF was more contained high content of chlorogenic acid and hyperoside than CCF. In addition, KCF was more exerted free radical (DPPH and ABTS) scavenging activity and blocked AChE activity than CCF. In vivo studies also showed that KCF administration has a further improved the memory of scopolamine-treated mice than CCF in Y-maze test, passive avoidance test and Morris water maze test. These results revealed that KCF more prevents scopolamine-induced memory impairments through antioxidant and acethylcholinesterase inhibition effect compared CCF.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the quality characteristics of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge leaf (AMBL) fermented with lactic acid bacteria and the applicability of its biologically active compounds. Methods and Results: An assessment of physicochemical properties such as pH, total acidity, free sugars, and isoflavonoid (calycosin-7-o-β-d-glucoside, ononin, calycosin, and formononetin) was conducted. Furthermore, the levels of antioxidant compounds, including polyphenols and flavonoids, and radical scavenging activities of the extracts using 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate and 2,2-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) were investigated. The calycosin content in the water extract of AMBL fermented with Leuconostoc mesenteroides increased by approximately twice as much as the control. Conclusions: These results indicate that L. mesenteroides can be used to improve biological activity through fermentation, and that AMBL can be used as a functional materials and edible resource in industrial areas.

Objective: To find biological functions such as antibacterial and antioxidant activities in several tropical plants and to investigate the possibility of antibiotic substitute agents to prevent and treat diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria. Methods: Plants such as Poncirus trifoliata fruit (Makrut), Zingiber officinale Rosc (Khing), Areca catechu L. (Mak), Solanum melongena L. I (Makkhuayao), and Solanum melongena L. II (Makhurapro) were extracted by methanol, n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. The free radical scavenging activities were measured using 2-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl photometric assay. Antibacterial activities with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were observed by agar diffusion assay against pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli, Burkholderia sp., Haemopilus somnus, Haemopilus parasuis, Clostridium perfringens, and Pantoea agglomerans. Results: Poncirus trifoliata fruit methanol extract showed antibacterial activities against gram-negative and gram-positive pathogens. Additionally, this showed the strongest antibacterial activity against Burkholderia sp. and Haemopilus somnus with MIC $131{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Areca catechu L. water extract showed antibacterial activities against Burkholderia sp., Haemopilus somnus, and Haemopilus parasuis. The MIC value for Haemopilus parasuis was $105{\mu}g/mL$ in this. Antioxidant activity of Zingiber officinale Rosc n-hexane extract showed 2.23 mg/mL effective concentration 50% ($EC_{50}$) value was the highest activity among tropical plants extracts. Total polyphenol content in Zingiber officinale Rosc methanol extract was $48.4{\mu}g/mL$ and flavonoid content was $22.1{\mu}g/mL$ showed the highest values among tested plants extracts. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that tropical plants used in this study may have a potential benefit as an alternative antibiotics agent through their antibacterial and antioxidant activities.

This study was conducted to determine the potent physiological activity of traditional wild tea ("Don tea"; coin-shaped tea) as affected by different harvesting times, aging periods and extracting temperatures, No difference in anti-oxidative activities in the harvesting time and extracting temperature of tea leaves was observed. However, short aging periods of Don tea showed high ABTS {2-2-azonobis (3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulphonic acid)} activity, ranging from 71.52 to 79.96%. DPPH (${\alpha},\;{\alpha}-diphenyl-{\beta}-picryl-hydrazyl$) radical scavenging activity of Don tea was 71.10 to 91.40%. Especially, longer aging period and an extracting temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ showed higher DPPH radical scavenging activity. With longer aging periods and an extraction at $90^{\circ}C$, nitrite radical scavenging activity of Don tea ranged from 74.04 to 94.92%. On the other hand, angiotensin 1-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition activity of Don tea was 59.77-81.97%. It showed higher activity when harvested in June and August, aged for longer periods, and extracted at $100^{\circ}C$. These results suggested Korean traditional Don tea exhibited the highest physiological activity when aged over 8 months.
