Houttuynia cordata root on non-lipid oxidative damage. The antioxidative efects of methanolic (MeOH) extract of Houttuynia cordata rooton non-lipid, including liposome oxidation, oxidation of deoxyribose, protein oxidation, chelating, scavenging,and 2'-deoxyguanosine (2'dG) oxidation were investigated. Houttuynia cordata root exhibited highantioxidative effect in a liposome model system. The inhibitory effect of MeOH extract on deoxyribosedamage exhibited antioxidative effect and it afforded considerable protection against damage to deoxyribose.In addition, MeOH extract at over 300extracts exhibited metal binding ability for hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, the oxidation of 2'dG to 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine was inhibited by MeOH extracts, and scavenging activity for hydroxyl radicalexhibited a remarkable effect. The present results on biological model systems showed that MeOH extractswas effective in the protection of non-lipids against various oxidative model systems.

Objectives: The enzymatic hydrolysis is one of the processing methods that improve its effectiveness on medicinal herbs. In this research, changes in ingredients and activity by enzymatic hydrolysis were studied. Methods: For this study, a carbohydrate hydrolase such as viscozyme, which converts glycosides to aglycone, was applied to induce constituent changes in Sophora japonica Linne, Houttuynia cordata Thunberg and Leonurus japonicus Houttuyn. Changes in antioxidant activity were measured using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazl (DPPH) method, and changes in ingredients were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. Results: As a result of enzymatic hydrolysis, the content of quercetin was increased from 1.26 mg/g to 29.66 mg/g in Sophora japonica Linne, from 0 mg/g to 0.66 mg/g in Houttuynia cordata Thunberg and from 0.43 mg/g to 0.71 mg/g in Leonurus japonicus Houttuyn. As a result of the antioxidant experimentation, the IC₅₀ of Sophora japonica Linne decreased from 5 ug/ml (MeOH extract) and 9.1 ug/ml (EtOAc fraction) to 3.0 ug/ml, Houttuynia cordata Thunberg decreased from 15.6 ug/ml (MeOH extract) and 13.6 ug/ml (EtOAc fraction) to 11.2 ug/ml, and Leonurus japonicus Houttuyn decreased from 14.4 ug/ml (MeOH extract) and 12.6 ug/ml (EtOAc fraction) to 10.2 ug/ml. Conclusion: In conclusion, it was confirmed that glycoside rutin contained in the three medicinal herbs was changed to quercetin which is the aglycone, by the enzymatic hydrolysis using viscozyme. In terms of antioxidant activity, Sophora japonica Linne showed a significant antioxidant activity value that closes to the control group butylated hydroxyanisole. Houttuynia cordata Thunberg and Leonurus japonicus Houttuyn showed a minor increase in antioxidant activity.

다제내성균의 증가는 사용할 항생제가 적거나 심지어 선택할 항생제가 없기 때문에 감염환자의 치료에 커다란 위협이 되고 있다. 최근 다양한 천연 추출물이 내성세균에서 항균효과 및 상승효과를 보인다는 보고가 많다. 어성초(Houttuynia cordata)는 항균, 항바이러스 및 항산화 효과를 보이는 전통적 약초이다. 이에 저자들은 임상의 주요 내성균에 대한 어성초의 항균효과를 알아보고, 이들의 적절한 항균효과 측정방법을 평가하고자 한다. 우선 현재 가장 많은 문제를 야기하는 주요 내성균인 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE), carbepenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB) 각각 10 균주를 선택하여, CLSI 기준으로 디스크 확산법 및 미량액체배지희석법으로 감수성 시험을 하였다. CLSI 기준으로 시행한 디스크 확산법에서 $4,096{\mu}g/mL$에서 $30,000{\mu}g/mL$ 까지의 농도에서 모든 균의 억제대는 관찰되지 않았다. 그러나 액체배지 희석법에서는 MRSA, VRE, CRAB의 $MIC_{90}$이 각각 $4,096{\mu}g/mL$, $8,192{\mu}g/mL$, $4,096{\mu}g/mL$를 보였다. 결론적으로 어성초는 MRSA, VRE, CRAB 등 주요 임상 내성균에서 우수한 항균효과를 보이며 천연물의 항균효과를 평가에 디스크 확산법보다 액체배지 희석법이 유용하다고 할 수 있다. 만약 디스크 확산법으로 항균효과를 측정하려면 천연물에 대한 균 접종 농도의 변경 등 새로운 기준이 요구된다.

The optimization of the addition ratios of Houttuynia cordata, Saururus chinensis, and Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum hot water extract to Houttuynia cordata beverage was evaluated by applying response surface methodology. The quality characteristics of a selected best product were investigated. Sweet, savory, and fishy taste, and overall acceptability were optimized by response surface methodology using a central composite design. The concentration of effect of Houttuynia cordata, Saururus chinensis, and Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum hot water extract was modeled using an equation. Hot water extracts of Houttuynia cordata ($1.75{\sim}1.89%$), Saururus chinensis ($1.03{\sim}1.04%$), and Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum ($2.17{\sim}2.31%$) represented the optimal concentration conditions to obtain the best taste. The physical and chemical characteristics of the beverage manufactured at optimized conditions were pH 4.18, soluble solids 0.41 $^{\circ}Brix$, total acidity 0.21%, color value ($L^*$ value 40.08, $a^*$ value 4.53, and $b^*$ value 10.69), total polyphenol 54.63 mg/L, and electron donating ability 26.98%.

어성초에서 발견되는 다양한 활성성분 중 강력한 항산화작용인 있는 quercitrin의 존재로 인해 건강식품이나 천연물의약품으로의 활용 목적으로 각광 받아 왔다. 본 연구에서는 어성초 추출물을 점농어의 사료에 첨가하여 장기간 급이함으로써, 가식부에 잔류하는 quercitrin으로 인해 식품의 가치를 높일 수 있는지 하는 가능성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 점농어에 어성초 추출물을 0.1, 0.5 및 1.0%의 수준으로 1개월간 급이하면 quercitrin이 hepatopancreas>muscle>serum의 순으로 잔류한다. 한편 Quercitrin을 순수물질 상태로 점농어, 틸라피아, 랫드 및 마우스에 20 mg/kg로 단회 경구 투여하고 48시간 후 조직내의 quercitrin 농도를 측정하면 점농어와 틸라피아에서는 어성초 추출물을 투여한 것과 동일한 잔류 농도 패턴을 보이지만 시험한 두 종의 포유동물에서는 liver>serum>muscle의 순으로 잔류 농도가 관찰된다. 이 결과로부터, quercitrin의 어류 가식부 근육내에서 발견된 상대적으로 높은 축적성은 기능성식품의 생산 측면에서 유리한 패턴의 특성으로 생각된다. 한편 최고 농도인 어성초 1.0%의 1개월간 투여 후 점농어의 성장에서 유의한 수준의 저해가 관찰되었으며 동시에 이 농도에서 간장 손상지표인 혈청내 효소의 변화도 관찰되었다. 결론적으로 어성초는 기능성 수산식품의 개발에 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하지만 이때 어류에서 독성이 나타나지 않는 수준의 농도로 제한하는 것이 현명한 것으로 보인다.

This study was performed to investigate the protective effect of Houttuynia cordata Thunb on hepatotoxicity in carbon tetrachloride$(CCI_4)$ intoxicated rats. The examined effects hexane, chloroform, butanol and water fractions prepared from the Houttuynia cordata Thunb methanol exlract and rats were administrated with those orally once a day for successive 6 days, fellowed by treaoent with $CCl_4$ on the sixth day. After 6 days, the activities of aminotransferase, alkalinephosphatase, ${\gamma}-glutamyl$ transpeptidase, lactate dehydrogenase and contents of triglyceride, hepatic lipid peroxide in butanol fraction pretreated rats were significantly decreased compared to the only $CCl_4$ treated rats, also depletion glutathione content induced by treatment with $CCl_4$ was prevented by butanol fraction pretreated rats. In addition, activities of hepatic superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase in butanol fiaction pretreated rats were significantly decreased compared to the only $CCl_4$ treated rats, but the activity of hepatic glutathione-S-transferase was not significantly effect. These results suggest that butanol fiuction of Houttuynia cordata Thunb methanol extract have potent hepatoprotective effect against carbon tetrachloride intoxicated rats.

Polyphenol profiles, physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, and inhibitory effect of adipocyte differentiation of Houttuynia cordata fermented with Lactobacillus brevis B84 were evaluated. Six polyphenols were characterized for this plant by using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS), and the results were compared with total phenolic content by a spectrophotometric method. The total amount of the identified polyphenols was lower than that determined by the spectrophotometric method. However, the fermentation process influenced polyphenol composition such as content of vanillic acid and caffeic acid. The phytochemical profiles were evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry detection ($HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS^n$). Total sugar and reducing sugar contents decreased after fermentation. Antioxidant activities such as DPPH, ABTS, and superoxide anion radical scavenging and reducing power were evaluated to compare the beneficial effect after fermentation. Fermented H. cordata increased the lipolytic effect in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Overall, the results indicate that the fermentation of H. cordata with L. brevis B84 produces changes of phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, and lipolytic effect.

어성초(Houttuynia cordata)는 삼백초과(Saururacease)에 속하는 다년생 초본으로 잎, 줄기 및 뿌리의 전초를 약제로 사용하고 있으며, 민간에서는 혈행개선, 폐렴, 급만성기관지염, 장염, 요로감염증, 종기 치료에 주로 이용되고 있다. 최근에는 항산화, 항염증, 항균 및 암세포 성장억제, 간손상 및 신경세포 사멸 억제, 카드뮴 독성 감소효과 등이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 어성초 지상부의 에탄올 추출물 및 이의 헥센 분획물, 에틸아세테이트 분획물, 부탄올 분획물 및 물 잔류물을 조제하여 항혈전, 항당뇨, 항산화 및 적혈구용혈활성을 평가하였다. 어성초의 총 폴리페놀 및 총 플라보노이드 함량은 에틸아세테이트 분획물에서 가장 높았으며, 상기 분획물은 5 mg/ml 농도에서 용매 대조구보다 2.09배, 2.19배 및 1.69배 연장된 TT, PT, aPTT를 보여 강력한 항혈전 활성을 나타내었으며, DPPH, ABTS 및 nitrite radical에 대해 각각 30.9, 19.9 및 49.6 ㎍/ml의 RC50을 보여, 9.8, 5.2 및 11,8 ㎍/ml의 RC₅₀를 나타낸 vitamin C의 항산화력에 비교되었다. 트롬빈 저해활성이 강력한 헥센 분획물이 강력한 적혈구 용혈활성을 나타내는 바와 달리, 상기 에틸아세테이트 분획물은 1 mg/ml 농도까지 전혀 용혈활성이 나타나지 않았다. 본 연구결과는 어성초의 항혈전 활성에 대한 최초의 보고로, 어성초의 quercitirin, hyperoside, orientin 및 isoquercitrin이 항혈전 및 항산화 활성에 관련되어 제시하고 있으며, 향후 어성초를 이용한 기능성 항혈전 식품소재 개발 가능함을 제시하고 있다.
