본 연구는 복분자 미숙과와 홍삼 물 추출물을 이용하여 인간 간암세포주(HepG2)와 위장관세포주(Caco-2)를 이용하여 콜레스테롤 억제효과 및 그와 연관된 HMG-CoA reductase 활성 억제효과 및 LDL 및 HDL과 관련된 분자기전을 조사하였다. 그 결과 복분자 미숙과와 홍삼 추출물은 모두 콜레스테롤 합성 억제 효과를 보였을 뿐만 아니라 HMG-CoA reductase 활성 억제효과를 보였다. 또한 두 추출물은 단독 투여시 보다 복합 투여시 부가효과를 보였다. 그리고 LDL receptor와 이를 조절하는 SREBP-2를 증가시키고 콜레스테롤 transport 인 ABCA1의 발현을 증가시켜 LDL를 낮추고 HDL를 높이는 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 특히 두 추출물의 복합 투여시 훨씬 높은 시너지 효과를 나타냄을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 전통적으로 오랜 기간 사용되어온 천연물인 복분자와 홍삼이 콜레스테롤 예방에 효과적임을 입증한 결과로 관련 대사증후군의 예방에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

남자 중학생에 대한 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)의 체지방감소, 동맥경화 지표 개선 및 신체활력개선 효과를 연구하였다. 체지방율이 30% 이상 인 건강한 남자 중학생 희망자 24명을 CLA섭취군과 대조군(placebo)으로 무작위로 나누고 CLA (하루에 2회, 총 6 g)와 placebo를 이중맹검법으로 총 12주간 처리하였다. 실험전과 마지막에 인체구성, 혈중 지질조성 및 운동력을 조사하였다. CLA는 체지방과 body mass index (BMI)를 유의성 있게 감소시켰지만, placebo는 효과가 없었다. CLA는 low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, total cholesterol 및 tryglyceride를 유의성 있게 낮추었고, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol는 증가시켰다. 운동능력인 trunk flexion, closed-eyes foot balance, standing long jump, shuttle run 및 sit-up를 향상시켰다. 이 결과는 CLA가 체지방을 감소시키고, 동맥경화 및 인체활동능력을 개선할 수 있어 비만 청소년의 체력을 관리하는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

This study was designed to determine whether low-density lipoporoteins (LDL) extracted from egg yolk in extender improve the function of Korean Jeju Black Bull semen. The semen was cryopreserved with 5% ethylene glycol (EG) or 7% glycerol (G) extenders containing 10% egg yolk (EY), 4% LDL and 5% EY or 8% LDL. Frozen-thawed sperm were evaluated sperm motility, viability, membrane integrity and acrosome integrity. Post-thawed sperm motility has been significantly higher (p<0.05) in 4% LDL + 5% EY ($69.00%{\pm}4.18$; EG and $63.00%{\pm}9.75$; 7% G) than 8% LDL ($57.00%{\pm}5.70$; EG and $52.00%{\pm}4.47$;G). Treatment of 4% LDL + 5% EY-EG ($66.85%{\pm}5.06$) has been significantly improved sperm viability compared to other treatments except 10% EY - EG. Moreover, in membrane integrity, swollen sperm ratio has been only significantly increased (p<0.05) in 4% LDL + 5% EY - EG ($64.65%{\pm}6.10$) among all treatments. In assess to detect acrosome integrity, especially, AR pattern ratio has been significantly decreased (p<0.05) in 4% LDL + 5% EY - EG among all treatments. In sperm viability as time passes, between 4% LDL + 5% EY and 10% EY, there was no significant difference, but 8% LDL was significantly decreased sperm viability in EG (1 and 2 hrs) and G (30 min, 1, 2, 5 and 12 hrs) extender. However, there were no significant differences among all treatments except 8% LDL-G in sperm membrane integrity. 8% LDL-G has been significantly decreased swollen sperm ratio at 5 hrs after thawed. It is concluded from these results that 4% LDL + 5% EY to the freezing extender showed more positive effect on the frozen-thawed spermatozoa in Korean Jeju Black bull.

In hypertriglyceridaemic individuals, atherosclerogenesis is associated with the increased concentrations of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and VLDL-associated remnant particles. In vitro studies have suggested that VLDL induces foam cells formation. To reveal the changes of the proteins expression in the process of foam cells formation induced by VLDL, we performed a proteomic analysis of the foam cells based on the stimulation of differentiated THP-1 cells with VLDL. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) analysis, 14 differentially expressed proteins, containing 8 up-regulated proteins and 6 down-regulated proteins were identified. The proteins are involved in energy metabolism, oxidative stress, cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis, such as adipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP), enolase, S100A11, heat shock protein 27 and so on. In addition, the expression of some selected proteins was confirmed by Western blot and RT-PCR analysis. The results suggest that VLDL not only induces lipid accumulation, but also brings about foam cells diverse characteristics by altering the expression of various proteins.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Lycii fructus on the serum lipid in rats fed high fat diet. We compared the effects of L. fructus and L.fructus water extract both adminstered with high fat diets on rats that had previously been on high fat or standard diets. Two separate experiments were conducted for 6 weeks. respectively. In experiment I, 4 groups of rats were fed experimental diets consisting of either \circled1 6 weeks of a standard diet(control), \circled2 6 weeks of a high-fat diet(HHC), \circled3 3 weeks of a high-fat diet followed by 3 weeks of a high-fat diet containing L. fructus(HHL) or \circled4 6 weeks of a high-fat diet with L. fructus extract in place of water for the last 3 weeks (HHT). In the second set of experiments, a high-fat diet (SHC), high-fat diet containing L.fructus(SHL) or high-fat diet with L. fructus extract in place of water (SHT) were fed for 3 weeks after 3 weeks of standard diet feeding. Rats fed L. fructus diet consumed more diets than high-fat diets. THe results of experiment I showed significant decreases(p<0.05) in serum triglyceride(TB) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels with L. fructus feedings, but did not show andy changes in total cholesterol (TC) level. High density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) level was increased significantly(p<0.05) with L. fructus feedings. Therefore, the ration of LDL-C to HDL-C(LDL-C/HDL-C) which is used as an atherosclerosis index was significantly (p<0.05) low, while the HDL-c/TC ration was significantly(p<0.05) high with L.fructus intake. However, no significant were found in serum cholesterols and TG levels in experimentII. The results of these experiments indicate that , regardless of the feeding from, L. fructus can be beneficial in lowering serum TG and LDL-C levels for habitual high-fat diet intakers. L.fructus also seems to be effective in elevating serum HDL-C level, theregy having beneficial effects on atherosclerosis by influencing the serum lipoprotein profile.

This study investigated the effects of chromium propionate on growth performance, serum traits and immune response in weaned pigs. Twenty-four 4 wk-old crossbred weanling pigs (initial body weight about 9.52${\pm}$0.48 kg) were randomly allotted into one of two groups, a control group (basal diet), chromium propionate group (diet supplemented with 200 ${\mu}g$ $kg^{-1}$ (ppb) of chromium propionate). This experiment was conducted over nine weeks. Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 100 ${\mu}g$ $kg^{-1}$ BW was used as the stress-inducing agent in the middle (4 wks) and final (8 wks) periods. The experimental results indicated that chromium propionate had no effect on growth performance (p>0.05). Chromium propionate supplementation reduced the percentage of LDL+VLDL (low and very low-density lipoprotein) and increased HDL (high-density lipoprotein), but did not affect other serum traits. Pigs supplemented with chromium propionate had higher antibody titers specific for sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and serum total globulin relative to the control during the final period (p<0.05). A challenge with LPS increased white blood cells in the chromium propionate group in both experimental periods (p<0.05). The chromium propionate group exhibited higher IgG and $\gamma$-globulin than the control during the middle experimental period (p<0.05). Moreover, the PHA (phytohemagglutinin) challenge result in the chromium propionate group was better than the control group (p=0.056). Greater neutrophil activity was displayed than in the control (p<0.05). This suggests that chromium propionate supplementation benefited the weaned pigs in lipoprotein and immune response.

계란의 난황으로부터 유래한 IgY의 분리와 정제과정이 흐름을 정리한 결과, 난황에서의 수용성 단백질의 분리단계가 단백질의 수율을 증가시키는데 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구에서는 자연 침전방법을 통하여 실험하였는데 수율의 증가를 위해서는 원심분리와 같이 수용성 단백질의 양을 많이 얻을 수 있는 방법이 필요하고, 인지질이나 lipoprotein등의 성분의 제거효율을 높이기 위해서는 x-carrageenan등과 같은 natural gum성분의 첨가와 같은 방법이 필요하다. 그러므로 자연침전을 이용하여 수율의 증가측면과 비용의 절감의 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 보다 효율적인 IgY의 분리를 위해서는 초기 단계에서 수율의 극대화와 불순성분 제거의 최대화가 동시에 요구되고 있다. 전처리 후의 시료를 이용하여 이온교환 크로마토그래피와 gel filtration chromatography를 통해 순도 90% 이상의 IgY를 얻을 수 있었다.

This study compared the lipid metabolism of white Leghorn layers between the growing and the laying periods. The study was conducted on thirty layers in the growing period (14 weeks old) and in the initial laying period (36 weeks old; 14 weeks from the onset of laying). Results indicated that all plasma lipid traits were significantly different (p<0.05) between the two periods. The estrogen concentration in the laying period was about 3 fold that in the growing period. Triacylglycerol (TG) concentration in the laying period was about 12 fold that in the growing period. The phospholipids, cholesterol, glycerol and non esterified fatty acid (NEFA) in the laying period were also higher than those in the growing period (p<0.05). Lipogenic enzyme activities in the laying period were higher than in the growing period (p<0.05). High-density lipoprotein (HDL) was the largest lipoprotein portion in growing layers. In laying hens, the major lipoprotein portion was very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). It was also shown that protein is the primary component of HDL and TG is the largest portion of VLDL in both periods. In laying hens, VLDL contained more TG than that in growing layers (p<0.05). The VLDL particle size in laying hens was larger than that in growing layers (p<0.05). This study indicates that the lipid metabolism traits of a layer in the laying period were different from those in the growing period. The lipogenesis related traits in the laying period were markedly greater than in the growing period.
