본 연구에서는 고려인삼세포 현탁배양에 의한 회분배양 실험에서 쟈스몬산과 안식향산이 ginsenoside 생산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 세포내에서 이차대사계를 활성화시키는 중간 신호전달 물질(signal transducer)로 알려진 쟈스몬산은 50 $\mu$M 이상의 농도로 투여되었을 때 ginsenoside 생산을 증가시킬 수 있었다. 그 이상의 농도에서는 세포 생장을 저하시키는 결과를 보였다. 쟈스몬산 투여 후 12시간가지 ginsenoside의 생산은 증가하였고, 그 이후에는 더 이상 증가하지 않았다. 안식향산과 쟈스몬산을 동시에 투여하면 ginsenoside 생산이 9.6배 증가하는 결과를 나타내었다. 이는 쟈스몬산 단독투여 때보다 2.2배 증가된 결과였다.

Cultures of hairy root induced from ginseng(Panax C.A. Meyer) transformed with Agrobacterium rhizogenes (strain A4, ATCC 15834) were established and morphologically two different hairy root strains (HB1, HB2) were obtained. To determine the optimum growth rate, the hairy root (HB2) was cultured in various liquid medium supplemented with or without plant growth hormone. The growth rate of hairy root cultured on MS medium was 1.3-3.1 times higher than those cultured on other media, and the optimum sucrose concentration and pH were 3-6%, 5.5-6.5, respectively. Also, the growth rate of hairy root was increased when 0.02 M ammonium nitrate, 1.2 mM potassium phosphate (monobasic) and 0.5 mg/l IBA were supplied to liquid medium. The saponin patterns and contents of hairy root (HB2) were determined by TLC and HPLC. The crude saponin contents were 4.67% and the total saponin contents were 1.0%, on dry weight basis.

인삼에서 생리활성이 보고된 알카로이드 분획에 관한 성분연구의 일환으로 백삼 50kg으로부터 알카로이드 분획 2.6g(수율:$5{\times}10^{-3}$%)을 분리하였으며, $CHCl_3$/MeOH(10 : 1)의 전개용매로 TLC한 결과 약 13종 이상의 Dragendorff 시약에 양성인 spot들을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 인삼 종류별 비교에 있어서는 백삼, 홍삼 및 전칠인삼은 서로 별 차이가 없었지만 미국인삼에 있어 No.2(Rf 0.71), No.3(Rf, 0.68)등의 spot가 검출되지 않았다. 또한 백삼에서 1종의 알카로이드 성분을 순수분리하여 화학적, 분광학적인 방법으로 구조를 구명한바 $N_9$-formyl-1-methyl-$\beta$-carboline으로 동정하였다.

The structural components of cell wall in various parts of Korean ginseng were analysed. Pectin was abundant in the cortex and epidermis of root, and leaf. Hemicellulose in root was more than in other parts of ginseng. Cellulose content of stem and seed coat was much higher compared to other parts and lignin content was highest in seed coat.

Water-soluble browning pigments were artily purified from Korean red ginseng through the several procedures such as fractionation by n-butanol, precipitation by ethanol, dialysis and gel filtration. At least four kinds of water-soluble browning pigment were separated from each other, two kinds of low-molecular-weight and two kinds of high-molecular-weight pigments.

We studied a assay method on the measurement of superoxide dismutase (SOD Superoxide : superoxide oxidoreductase, EC. 1. 15. 1. 1) activity with photoreduced flavin and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) as superoxide (${O_2}^{-}$) source and detector, respectively. The $\Delta$E (1000 ng SOD$.$$min.)^{-1}$ of photoreduced flavin-NBT system was 0.08, whereas that of xanthine-xanthine-cytochrome system used broadly in experiments was 0.014. Therefore, the new method was regarded more simple and utilizable than xanthine-xanthine cytochrome system method. In the present paper, we also carried out to investigate the SOD activity and isozyme pattern for the parpose of study of leaf-burning disease in ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) leaves.

This experiment was conducted to obtain the basic information on new- and latent-bud formation, and stem vestige arrangement on the rhizome of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. Latent buds emerged from meristematic region between shoot and root of the embryo, and new buds for the next year were distributed both at the bottom portion of the stem and the rhizome. In the new buds, organs such as leaf, stem, and flower bud were already completely differentiated, while the latent bud had an undifferentiated meristematic tissue arranged linearly in a vertical line, indicating that each year new- and latent-buds are formed successively. This result suggests that the number of stem vestige may be used for the determination of ginseng age. Key words Rhizome, new-bud, latent-bud, histology, morphology, stem vestige, vestige arrangement.

Effects of red ginseng acidic polysaccharides (RGAP) on immune system were studied. The proliferation of spleen cells was induced by RGAP treatment per se. Cotreatment of lipopolysaccharide $(100\;{\mu}g/ml)$ or concanavalin A $(1\;{\mu}g/ml)$ with RGAP further stimulated the spleen cell proliferation. BALB/c mice treated with RGAP showed a slight splenic hyperplasia and increased antibody forming cell response to sheep red blood cells. Flow cytometry analysis revealed an influx of macrophages in the mice treated with RGAP.

We studied the folilar wiping effects of antioxidants (ascorbate, glutathione and sodium azide), which effectively inhibited the chlorophyll bleaching or completely recorved the early stage of photosynthesis of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, on photosynthesis, stomatal resistance, free sugar, starch, and total saponin contents of ginseng under the excess light intensity (45 kLux) during 6 days. Ascorbate and glutathione, endogenous antioxidant, recovered photosynehtsis and stomatal resistance, and reduced the photoinhibition by the excess light intensity (45 kLux) on free sugar, starch and total saponin contents. But sodium azide, exogenous $^{1}O_2$ quencher, showed negative effect. Therefore, we assumed that carbohydrates and saponin metabolisms of ginseng by antioxidants (ascorbate, glutathione) were normal. For the reduction of inhibition by excess light in ginseng a program for the higher activation of antioxidants and antioxidative enzymes in ginseng leaf will be desirable. Key words Antioxidants, ascorbate, glutathione, Photoinhibition, ginseng.

A genuine dammarane-glycoside, named as ginsenoside $ Rs_3$, was isolated from the MeOH extracts of Korean red ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) through repeated silica gel column chromatographies and its chemical structure was determined as (20S)-protopanaxadiol $3-O-[6^{11}-O-acetyl-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl (1{\rightarrow2)-{\beta}-D-$glucopyranoside on the basis of several spectral and physical evidences including HMBC and FAB-MS.
