To evaluate the effect of ethanol pretreatment on the liver and serum xanthine oxidase(XO) activity, the bromobenzene(40mg/kg body wt., i.p.) was orally given 3 times daily to the Sprague-Dawley male rats pretreated with 5% ethanol throughout 2 months. Bromobenzene treated rats pretreated with ethanol showed the more decreased activity of serum and liver XO, and lower value of V than those of only bromobenzene treated rats. Bu the bromobenzene treatment, ethanol pretreated rats showed the more decreased levels of serum alanine aminotransferase activity and liver weight/bo여 weight(%), and decreased degree of liver damage on histopathological observation than the control group.

The effects of scoparone, one of coumarin derivative on the hepatic bromobenzene metabolizing enzyme system was estimated in rats. Scoparone pretreatment revealed dose-dependently the recovery of decrease in epoxide hydrolase activity due to the bromobenzene(310 mg/kg, i.p.) treatment. And also scoparone and scopoletin (each 5mg/kg, p.o.) pretreatments showed two times increase in the $V_{max}$ values compared to those of bromobenzene-treated group which were calculated from tripartite reciprocal plots. The mode of protective effect of scoparone against bromobenzene induced toxicity is considered to be due to the induction of microsomal enzyme activity by scopoletin, the intermediate metabolite of scoparone. The changes in cytochrome P-450 activity, aminopyrine N-demethylation, aniline hydroxylation and glutathione S-transferation in scoparone-treated group were not significantly different from those of the control group.

We have studied the mechanism by examining the effect of ginseng on the epoxide hydrolase which is catabolized the reactive intermetabolite of bromobenzene, and bromobenzene-induced hepatotoxicity. It was observed that ginseng saponin fraction protects against bromobenzene-induced hepatotoxicity in mice as evidenced 1. increased the epoxide hydrolase activity, 2. lower serum transaminase activity, 3. decreased the formation of lipid peroxide. These results suggested that the inducing effect of ginseng on the epoxide hydrolase is believed to be a possible detoxication mechanism for the bromobenzene toxicity in mice.

Bromobenzene투여시 GE-132의 해독기전을 추구할 목적으로 epoxide생성계와 해독계 효소 및 glutathione 관련 효소계의 활성에 GE-132가 어떤 영향을 주는가를 검토하여 다음과 같은 실험 결과를 얻었다. GE-132(100mg/kg)의 전처리로 cytochrome P-450, amino=pyrine demethylase 및 aniline hydroxylase와 해독계 효소인 epoxide hydrolase활성에는 영향을 미치지 않았으나, glutathions S-transferase활성은 증가 하였다. Bromobenzene(460mg/kg)을 주사하였을때 glutathione S-transferase의 활성이 현저히 감소되던 것이 GE-132의 투여로 대조군 수준으로 증가되었다. 조직내 glutathione의 함량변동도 bromobenzene 투여로 감소되던 것이 GE-132의 전처리로 bromobenzene단독 투여군보다 증가되었으며 ${\gamma}-glutamylcystein$ synthtase의 활성은 각 실험군에서 별다른 영향이 없는데 비해 glutathione reductase의 활성은 bromobenzene투여로 억제 되던 것이 GE-132의 전처리로 대조군 수준으로 활성을 유지하고 있었다.

Holotrichia was tested for the effects on damages of liver tissue induced by bromobenzene. Holotrichia was treated firstly into samples, and then bromobenzene intoxicated animal models were set with them. In vitro, the level of lipid peroxide in tissue of liver proportinally decreased with the level of concentration of extract prepared from Holotrichia It was much more decreased, when lipid peroxidation was induced with ferrous iron ($Fe&{+2}$). In vivo, after the extract was administered to the animal model for twenty days, the level of lipid peroxide in liver decreased compared to that of bromobenzene-treated group. The enzyme activities of epoxide hydrolase and glutathione S-transferase in liver highly increased in Holotrichia pre-medicating group compare with the group treated with only bromobenzene. And we can get the same results in the enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase. The level of glutathione followed by Holotrichia pre-medicationg administration, increased as highly as normal group in compare with the group treated with only bromobenzene. Also, the enzyme activities of AL T, AST and $\{gammer}-GTP$ in liver considerably decreased. In conclusion, Holotrichia recovers the damage of liver due to bromobenzene intoxication by the increased activities of lipid peroxidation and bromobenzene scavenging enzymes.

Objective : To investigate the hepatoprotective effects of Gami-oryungsan on the liver damage induced by bromobenzene. Method : The development of fibrosis and acute liver injury was examined by the chemical analysis of AST, AL T, ${\gamma}$-GTP . and epoxide hydrolase glutathione S-transferase glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity, lipidoperoxide levels, glutathione levels were measured and oberved. Results : The increasing levels of lipidoperoxide was decreased proportionally according to dose of extract GO. Epoxide hydrolase glutathioneS-transferase glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity highly increased in GO pre-acupunctured group compared with the group treated with only bromobenzene. The increase of serum AST, AL T, ${\gamma}$-GTP enzyme activity of mice by bromobenzene was inhibited by the administration of GO. Lipidoperoxide levels in rat's liver decreased compared to the case of bromobenzene-treated group. The levels of Glutathione decreased by bromo benzene were increased highly in GO pre-acupunctured group. Conclusion : These results suggest that GO extract recovers the damage of liver due to bromobenzene intoxication by decreasing the lipid peroxidation AST AL T ${\gamma}$-GTP enzyme activity and increasing epoxide hydrolase glutathioneS-transferase glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity, glutathione levels.

The full NMR assignment of hispidulin 7-0-neohesperidoside (1) isolated from Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriense was made with the aid of 2D correlation NMR techniques such as HMQC and HMBC. To investigate detoxification of bromobenzene-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation by compound 1, hepatic lipid peroxide level and the activities of enzymes responsible for production and removal of epoxide were studied. The level of lipid peroxide elevated by bromobenzene was significantly reduced by compound 1. This compound administered daily over one week before intoxication with bromobenzene did not affect the activities of aminopyrine N-demethylase, aniline hydroxylase, glutathione S-transferase. Epoxide hydrolase activity was decreased significantly by bromobenzene, which was restored to the control level by pretreatment of persicarin. The results suggest that the bromobenzene-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation by compound 1 is reduced by enhancing the activity of epoxide hydrolase, an enzyme removing bromobenzene epoxide.

The methanol extracts of some marine algae were tested for investigating the effects on the formation of lipid peroxide and the activities of free radical generating enzyme in vitro in bromobenzene-treated rat. The extracts of Enteromorpha compressa, Capsosiphon fulvescens, Gelidium amansii, Hizikia fusiformis, Sargassum siliquastrum and Sargassum thunbergii which decreased the formation of lipid peroxide, inhibited the activity of xanthine and aldehyde oxidases by adding of each extracts. Phloroglucinol isolated from Ecklonia stolonifera reduced bromobenzene-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation. This compound administered daily over one week before intoxication with bromobenzene did not affect the activities of aminopyrine N-demethylase, aniline hydroxylase and glu tathione S-transferase. Epoxide hydrolase activity was decreased by bromobenzene, which was restored by pretreatment of phloroglucinol, The results suggest that the bromobenzene-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation by phloroglucinol is reduced by enhancing the activity of epoxide hydrolase.

The effects of the methanol extract of the leaves of Brassica juncea and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, major compound isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of this plant on hepatic lipid peroxidation and drug-metabolizing enzymes, were evaluated in rats treated with bromobenzene. The extract and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ of oral administration did not show any significant effects on activities of aminopyrine N-demethylase and aniline hydroxylase, enzymes forming toxic epoxide by bromobenzene as well as on glutathione content. However, both methanol extract and isorhamnetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ significantly recovered the decreased activities of glutathione s-transferase and epoxide hydrolase, and also reduced the lipid peroxide level in rats treated with bromobenzene. From the results, the protections of this plant against bromobenzene-induced hepatotoxicity are thought to be via enhancing the activities of epoxide hydrolase and glutathione s-transferase, enzymes removing toxic epoxide, and reducing the lipid peroxide level.
