  • 활성산소 소거 효소인 superoxide dismutase (SOD)가 결핍된 효소 변이주들을 대상으로 하여, 활성산소 유발물질인 paraquat을 배지에 첨가하여 배양하면서 산소 독성을 관찰하였다. 호기 상태에서 는 MnSOD (mitochondria SOD) 결핍 효모는 CuZnSOD (세포질 SOD) 결핍 효모보다 성장이 많 이 저하되었지만, 혐기 상태에서는 이들 SOD 결핍 효모 모두 성장 속도에서 야생 효모와 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. Paraquat으로 처 리한 결과, 호기 배양 에서 CuZnSOD 결핍 효모는 O.OlmM 이상에서 성 장하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 O.OOlmM paraquat을 배지에 첨가한 후 호기적으로 배양하면서 세포내 성분의 변화를 관찰하였더니, CuZnSOD 결핍 효모에셔는 catalase 역가가 떨어진 반면 glutathion peroxidase 역가와 세포막 지질의 과산 화물이 증가하였으며, MnSOD 결핍 효모에서는 catalase 역가와 glutathion peroxide 역가가 모두 조금씩 증가하면서 세포막 지질의 과산화물은 그다지 변화하지 않았다. 이러한 사실로부터 CuZnSOD 가 없는 경우 활성산소 소거계로써 catalase 보다 glutathion peroxidase가 훨씬 활성화되어지지만, 이렇게 활성화된 glutathion peroxidase로는 세포질내 산소 radical을 완벽히 제거하는데에는 다소 불충분 하다는 사실을 알 수 았었다. 한편, 혐기적 배양에서 는 SOD 결핍 효모들의 catalase 역가는 모두 감소 한 반면, glutathion peroxidase 역가는 다소 증가하였고, 또한 세포막 지질의 과산화물은 다소 감소하는 추세를 보였다. 이는 혐기 상태에서 산소 radical 이 소량밖에 생기지 않으므로, 활성화된 glutathion p peroxidase에 의해 어느 정도 극복되어지기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 두 집단 간에 어느 정도 방향성은 있는 것으로 판단된다.ds for eagerness for lasting life not only in this world but also in the other world., Keun-Kap, Scarf, Pee-Bak, Hung-Kap, Pok-Kap, Yang-Dang-Kap, We-Yo-Kap, Kum-Kap, and caries arms.

  • Protective roles of antioxidant enzymes, copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD), manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), and catalase of Candida albicans against exogenous reactive oxygens and oxidative killing by macrophages were investigated. The initial growth of C. albicans was inhibited by reactive, oxygen-producing chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide, pyrogallol, and paraquat, but it was restored as the production of antioxidant enzymes were increased. The growth inhibition of C. albicans by reactive, oxygen-producing chemicals was reduced by treating the purified candidal SOD and catalase. Also, in the presence of SOD and catalase, the oxidative killing of C. albicans by macrophages was significantly inhibited. These results suggest that antioxidant enzymes, CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase of C. albicans may play important roles in the protection of C. albicans not only from exogenous oxidative stress but also from oxidative killing by macrophages.

  • A Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cDNA was cloned from the spider, Araneus ventricosus. The A. ventricosus SOD1 (AvSOD1) cDNA contains an open reading frame of 495 bp encoding 165 amino acid polypeptide with a predicted molecular mass of 17,114 Da and pI of 6.55, and possesses the typical metal binding ligands of six histidines and one aspartic acid common to SOD1s. The deduced amino acid sequence of the AvSOD1 cDNA showed $51\%$ identity to Ceratitis capitata SOD1, and $50\%$ to SOD1 sequences of both Drosophila melanogaster and Chymomyza amoena. Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of AvSOD1 transcripts in all tissues examined.

  • Leaf water and osmotic potential, chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, and electrolyte leakage were measured to evaluate tolerance to water stress in wild-type (WT) and transgenic tobacco plants (TR) expressing copper/zink superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in chloroplasts. Leaf water potential of both WT and TR plants decreased similarly under water stress condition. However, leaf osmotic potential of TR plants more negatively decreased in the process of dehydration, compared with WT plants, suggesting osmotic adjustment. Stomatal conductance (Gs) in WT plants markedly decreased from the Day 4 after withholding water, while that in TR plants retained relatively high values. Relatively low chlorophyll content and photosynthetic rate under water stress were shown in WT plants since $4^{th}$ day after treatment. In particular, damage indicated by electrolyte leakage during water stress was higher in WT plants than in TR plants. On the other hand, SOD and APX activity was remarkably higher in TR plants. These results indicate that transgenic tobacco plants expressing copper/zink superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in chloroplasts improve tolerance to water stress.

  • Aralia cordata Thunb. (Araliaceae, ACT) is an remarkable herbal plant that has been widely used in traditional oriental medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases and cardiovascular disorders. In this study, we have established a vascular aging model in rats by orally administrating excessive vitamin $D_2$ (500,000 IU/kg/day) for 4 days followed by feeding high cholesterol diet for 16 weeks and then rats were randomly divided into control group, high cholesterol diet (HCD) group, HCD+ACT (30 mg/kg) and HCD+ACT (60 mg/kg) group. ACT (30, 60) significantly reduced total cholesterol (TC) content compared with HCD, but no significant differences in the serum lipids. Secondly, we measured the serum levels of Oxidized Low-dencity Lipoprotein (OxLDL) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in order to further investigate the anti-vascular aging mechanism of ACT. The results, ACT (30, 60) treatments decreased OxLDL, MDA content and increased Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase activity compared with HCD treatments. The results suggested that ACT inhibited OxLDL production rather than serum lipids lowering and that ACT could be used as potential anti-atherosclerotic agent in aged cells.
