은행잎 엑스 3종류를 이용하여 활성산소와 염중관련 아라키돈산 유리의 억제능을 보았다. 은행잎 엑스, Ginkgolide A, Ginkgolide B의 3종류 모두 pyrogallol 자동산화에서는 항산화능을 발휘하지 못하였으나, DPPH법의 전자공여능에서는 환원력을 나타내었다. 10 ${\mu}M$ 과산화수소($IC_{50}=10\;{\mu}M$)로 U937의 지질과산화 유도 시 은행잎 엑스 3종류 모두 400 ${\mu}g/mL$이상에서는 보호하였으나, 은행잎 엑스가 가장 좋았다. 단백질 분해실험에서는 Ginkgolide A만이 효과가 좋아 50 ${\mu}g/mL$에서도 거의 억제하였다. TPA와 calcimycin을 U937에 첨가하여 염중 유도의 중요 물질인 아라키돈산 유리를 유도하였다. 이 아라키돈산 유리 유도 시 은행잎 엑스 3종류 모두 10 ${\mu}g/mL$에서도 뛰어난 억제능을 보였으며, 특히 Ginkgolide B는 유도 시에 비하여 11배 억제하였으며, 비유도시인 대조군보다도 약 4배의 억제능을 보였다. 따라서 은행잎 엑스가 항산화능에 의해 아라키돈산 유리를 억제하는 것이 아니라 아라키돈산 유리의 전 단계의 어느 부분을 강하게 억제하여 아라키돈산 유리가 저해되는 것으로 생각된다.

In this study, we analyzed and quantified the contents of magnolol (1), honokiol (2), and obovatol (3) in the leaves of Magnolia species by HPLC. HPLC methods were developed and validated by ICH guide lines comparing the linearity, intraday precision, inter-day precision. The optimal conditions were as follows; wavelength: 288 nm, column: Zorbax Eclipse XDBC18 $(2.1\times150\;mm,\;5{\mu}m)$, mobile phase: Acetonitril - 0.1 % $H_3PO_4$ (45:55, v/v) buffer, flow rate: 0.5 ml/min. The contents of magnolol, honokiol and obovatol were 1.08%, 2.37%, and 0.57% in the leaves of M. officinalis, 0.50%, 0.03%, and 1.54% in the leaves of M. biloba, 0.37%, 0.03%, and 0.76% in the leaves of M. obovata. The contents of effective ingredients in the leaves of M. officinalis and M biloba were higher than that of M. obovata. Especially, the content of obovatol in the leaves of M. biloba was remarkably high. This result showed that the shapes of leaves have a certain relationship with the content of obovatol.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive molecules due to their unpaired electron. They have been suspected as one of the major tissue damage inducers in biological metabolic systems. Antioxidant enzymes, such as catalase and superoxide dismutase, could not repair all the oxidative damages resulting from those excessive toxic ROS. It is, therefore, urgent to develop effective antioxidants to relieve from the oxidatire damages. In this study antioxidative effects were investigated by using two flavonoids such as quercetin and naringenin and a flavonoid-rich extract, Ginkgo biloba extract in combination with paraquat that is known as a strong generator of oxygen radicals. The results are summeringed as follows: 1. To assess radical scavenging ability reduction concentrations (IC$_{50}$) of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazine (DPPH) within 15 minutes were measured. The values of the IC$_{50}$ of quercetin and Ginkgo biloba extract were 15.4 $\mu$M and 13.2$\mu$g/ml, respectively. Their radical removing activities showed concentration-dependent manners. 2. In the hydrogen peroxide assay by using PMS-NADH system, quercetin, naringenin and Ginkgo biloba extract led to removing hydrogen peroxide in concentrationdependent manner whose removing abilities at 100$\mu$M or 100 $\mu$g/ml were 75.6, 25.8 and 26.0%, respectively. 3. In the hydrogen peroxide-induced rat blood hemolysis assay all three compounds led to similar effects whose hemolysis inhibition ratios at 100$\mu$M or 100$\mu$g/ml were 68.0, 5.14 and 55.8%, respectively. 4. In the xanthinee oxidase assay by measuring degree of NADH oxidation in the presence of hypoxanthine and xanthinee oxidase, both quercetin and Ginkgo biloba extract showed excellent activities showing 42.8 and 24.2% inhibiting xanthine oxidase activity at 100$\mu$M or 100$\mu$g/ml concentrations, respectively.

In this study, an improved method for the quantitative analysis of ginkgolic acids (GAs) in Ginkgo biloba leaf extract was developed. The samples were extracted with a mixture of chloroform and 50 % ethanol, after which the chloroform extract was dried and reconstituted in methanol. GAs with 13:0, 15:1, and 17:1 in the extract were successfully separated within 40 min and determined with high throughput performance using an online column-switching HPLC method using an SP column C8 SG80 ($4.6{\times}150mm$, $5{\mu}m$) and a Cadenza 5CD C18 column ($4.6{\times}150mm$, $3{\mu}m$). The developed HPLC method was validated for Ginkgo biloba leaf extract. The validation parameters were specificity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and limits of detection and quantitation (LODs and LOQs, respectively). It was found that all of the calibration curves showed good linearity ($r^2$ > 0.9993) within the tested ranges. The LODs and LOQs were all lower than $0.04{\mu}g/mL$. The established method was found to be simple, rapid, and high throughput for the quantitative analysis of GAs in ten commercial Ginkgo biloba leaf extract and dietary supplements. The samples were also analyzed in LC-electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) - multiple-ion reaction monitoring (MRM) mode to confirm the identification results that were obtained by the column switching HPLC-DAD method. The developed method is considered to be suitable for the routine quality control and safety assurance of Ginkgo biloba leaf extract.

은행 종자와 잎은 많은 연구와 개발이 이루어졌으나, 외종피는 알러지 등의 부작용으로 사용을 기피해왔다. 본 연구에서는 버려지는 은행 외종피로부터 작물재배에 많은 피해를 주는 선충을 방제할 수 있는 천연물을 찾고자 했다. 은행 외종피 유기용매추출물의 H₂O 분획물과 EtOAc 분획물에서 살선충 활성을 확인하였고, EtOAc 분획물에서 살선충 활성이 가장 높게 나타났으며, EtOAc 분획물을 0.1 mg/mL 농도 처리에서 74%의 살선충 활성이 나타났다. 4차례의 TLC를 실시하여 살선충 물질을 순수 분리하였으며, prep-TLC 에서 R_f 0.5에 single spot을 확인하였고, HPLC 분석에서 R_t 8.609에서 single peak를 확인하였다. 순수 분리한 물질을 GB4-3으로 명명하고, 살선충 활성을 조추출물과 농도별 비교하였다. 은행 외종피 조추출물 10 ㎍/mL 처리 후 18시간 후에 약 45%의 살선충 활성을 나타냈고, 20 ㎍/mL 처리한 곳에서는 55%의 활성을 보였다. 은행 외종피 추출물로부터 순수 분리한 물질 GB4-3을 20 ㎍/mL 처리한 곳에서는 18시간 후에 약 69%의 살선충 활성을 나타나 살선충제 개발 후 보소재로서 가치가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 부식선충에 대한 살선충 활성과 식물기생 선충에 대한 살선충 활성의 유의성은 선행 보고에서 볼 수 있으나, 은행 외종피를 이용한 선충방제제 개발을 위해서는 식물기생성 선충류에 대한 살선충 활성을 조사할 필요가 있다. 농산물재배와 식물생육에 심각한 피해를 주는 선충 방제를 위한 친환경적 방제제의 개발은 절실히 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 식물이나 미생물 등의 생물소재를 이용하거나 천연소재의 부산물을 이용 또는 이들을 혼용한 혼합제제로 개발한다면 상승효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

Polyphenol Oxidase(PPO) was purified from an extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves by ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by sephadex G-150 column chromatography, which resulted in a 18-fold increase in specific activity. The enzyme was most active at pH 8.5 and the temperature optimum for the PPO catechol oxidation reaction was $45^{\circ}C$. Heat inactivation studies showed that heating for 7, 9 and 48 min, at 80, 70 and $60^{\circ}C$ respectively caused a 50% loss in enzymatic activity and that the enzyme was completely inactivated after heat treatment at $90^{\circ}C$ for 60 min. Km values of the PPO for catechol, hydroquinone and 4-methylcatechol derived from Lineweaver-Burk plots were $6.06\;{\times}\;10^{-4}M,\;1.02\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M,\;1.41\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M$ respectively. Of the substrates tested, 4-methylcatechol was oxidized most readily and the enzyme did not oxidize monophenols. The enzyme datalyzed browning reaction was completely inhibited in the presence of reducing reagents, namely ascorbic acid, cysteine, glutathione, 2-mercaptoethanol, potassium metabisulfite at 0.5 mM level. Sodium chloride showed very little inhibition effect on Ginkgo biloba leaves PPO. Lineweaver-Burk analysis of inhibition data revealed that the inhibition by cysteine, 2-mercaptoethanol, potassium cyanide was competitive with ki values of $1.1\;{\times}\;10^{-5}M,\;2.4\;{\times}\;10^{-5}M,\;8\;{\times}\;10^{-5}M$, respectively. Among the divalent cations, $Cu^{2+}ion$ was a strong activator on PPO and $Mn^{2+}ion$ was little or no effect on PPO activity $Ni^{2+}ion$ was an inhibitor on PPO.

Antimutagenicity profiles of the enzymatic browning reaction products(EBRP) were investigated. The rec-assay with Bacillus subtilis strains $H17(rec^+)$ and $M45(rec^-)$ was carried out using their spores. The biological activities were evaluated for seven different enzymatic browning reaction products, which resulted from the reactions of seven polyphenols with polyphenol oxidase isolated from Ginkgo biloba leaves. In the spore $rec^-$ assay, most of the polyphenolic compounds tested were positive, whereas their enzymatic browning reaction products were tested negative. The mutagenicity of enzymic browning mixtures of the polyphenols and the enzymes obtained from Ginkgo biloba leaves showed negative results in the mutagenicity test using Bacillus subtilis strains $H17(rec^+)$ and $M45(rec^-)$. In the case where polyphenol oxidase inhibitors were added in the enzymatic reaction mixtures with polyphenols, the polyphenols showed mutagenic effect in the spore $rec^-$ assay. This suggests that the activity of polyphenol oxidase is decreased.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the combined effects of ginkgo biloba extract, ginkgolide A and B and aspirin on SK-N-MC, human neuroblastoma cell viability and mRNA expression of growth associated protein43 (GAP43), Microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), B-cell lymphoma2 (Bcl2) and protein53 (p53) gene in hypoxia and reperfusion condition. Methods: SK-N-MC cells were cultured with Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) media in $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ incubator. The cells were cultured for 8 hours in non-glucose media and hypoxic condition and for 12 hours in normal media and $O_2$ concentration. Cell survival rate was measured with Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) reagent assay. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to estimate mRNA levels of GAP43, MAP2, Bcl2, and p53 genes. Results: The ginkgolide A and B increased viable cell number decreased in hypoxic and reperfused condition. The co-treatment of ginkgolide B with aspirin also increased the number of viable cells, however, there was no additive effect. Although there was no increase of mRNA expression of GAP43, MAP2, and Bcl2 in SK-N-MC cells with individual treatment of ginkgolide A, B or aspirin in hypoxic and reperfused condition, the co-treatment of ginkgolide A or B with aspirin significantly increased GAP43 and Bcl2 mRNA levels. In MAP2, only the co-treatment of ginkgolide A and aspirin showed increasing effect. The mRNA expression of p53 had no change in all treating conditions. Conclusion: This study suggests that the combined treatments of Ginkgo biloba extracts and aspirin increase the regeneration of neuroblastoma cells injured by hypoxia and reperfusion.
