This study was performed to investigated the effect of dietary fat sources on renal senescence in aged rats. Seventeen month old male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups according to urinary protein excretion. Four month old rats were used as a control group. The rats were fed one of three different experimental diets ; 20% beef tallow, 20% corn oil 20% fish oil diet. They were fed experimental diets ad libitum for 16 weeks . The results are summarized as follows. Serum lipid concentrations were higher in aged rats than in control rats, with the beef tallow group showing the highest level, followed by the corn oil and fish oil groups. Old rats showed higher HDL and lower LDL levels than the control groups. Age and dietary fat had no effect on VLDL. GFR for the both age groups were increased with experimental period with the beef tallow group showing the highest value. Urinary protein excretion was also increased with experimental period in both age groups. There was a large increase in urinary protein in old rats that were fed beef tallow and corn oil, but not in old rats fed fish oil. On the contrary , the effect of dietary fat on urinary protein was not found in control groups. There was individual susceptibility in the effect of dietary fat on urinary protein. Old rats fed beef tallow with high initial urinary protein showed highest increase, but , the change was not significant in rats with a low initial value . It was also found that the increase was kept low in rats of the fish oil group with high initial urinary protein. The corn oil group showed in between values. There were no differences in urine and renal tissue concentrations of TXB2 . Aged rats showed a tendency of having higher urinary PGE2 excretion and lower renal cortex content. Since higher PGE2 excretion was reported to be associated with decreased renal function, this might suggest that the aged rats show renal function reduction. Light microscopic examination showed that glomerular segmental sclerosis, mesangial matrix expansion and tubular atrophy were more frequently present in aged rats, and that these changes were more significant in the beef tallow group, followed by corn oil and fish oil groups. The percentage of urinary protein excretion was increased in aged rats in association with increased glomerular sclerosis and mesangial matrix . This change could be partly due to a change in eicosanoids metabolism . Therefore, modification of dietary fat could affect the eicosanoids metabolism in kidney and renal senescence.

This experiment was designed to evaluate the effects of the processing method of common vetch seed (CVS) (Vicia sativa) on laying performance, egg quality, metabolic parameters and liver histopatology during the peak production period in hens. Lohman layers, 46 wk of age in 6 replicate cages each containing 4 hens, were allocated randomly to one of four dietary treatments. Diets were control (C) diet containing no common vetch and experimental diets containing 25% raw common vetch (RCV), 25% soaked in water for 72 h with exchange of water every 24 h (SCV) and 25% soaked&boiled at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 minute common vetch (SBCV). Inclusion of RCV into the diet deteriorated all laying performance variables. SCV did not alleviate the adverse effect of raw common vetch on feed intake, egg weight, feed conversion, final weight and weight change. SCV partially alleviated egg production (p<0.001). SBCV diminished the adverse effect on feed intake, egg weight, feed conversion, final weight and weight change compared to raw vicia sativa (p<0.001). No significant difference was detected between SBCV and the control group in terms of egg production, feed conversion, final weight and weight change. Regardless of the processing method, all the common vetch groups had lower shell strength compared to the control group. Haugh units did differ between all groups (p<0.001). Inclusion of RCV and SCV into the basal diet decreased triglyceride, cholesterol, total protein and serum glucose concentrations (p<0.001). Hovewer, inclusion of SBCV into the basal diet increased these parameters. Liver samples were stained with Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and evaluated by light microscopy. A biopsy of native liver tissue was used as a control. No histopathologic finding was present in the control group. Raw V. sativa compared with the control caused lipid accumulations in hepatocytes, severe congestion of hepatic blood vessels, inflammation, increased numbers of Kupffer cells and sinusoidal dilatations. Whereas, the livers from groups given treated V. sativa showed only different degrees of sinusoidal dilatations. Findings from the present study point out the risk of increased hepatic damage due to use of raw Vicia sativa. Increasing treatment of V. sativa lead to a decrease of liver damages. Inclusion of raw and soaked vetch seeds in rations affected adversely all parameters examined in laying hens. But alleviation was observed when soaked and boiled vetch seeds (SBCV) were fed. The results of these experiments indicated that soaked&boiled Vicia sativa seeds may safely be used at a 25% level in rations of laying hens.

IGFs and IGFBPs have an important role in controlling glucose homeostasis. This study was conducted to investigate the changes of insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-I. IGF-II and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) on fasting and postprandial state in Korean diabetes, Twenty eight healthy subjects and fifty seven diabetic patients participated in this study. The healthy subjects were not knowingly suffered from any disease and were not receiving any medical treatment, and diabetic subjects were undergo medical treatment, continuously. Weight and height were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg) divided by the square of height (m2). Blood pressure was measured. Plasma lipid profiles were analyzed by enzymatic methods, plasma Insulin and glucose levels were measured in fasting and postprandial state, respectively. The levels of serum IGFs and IGFBP-3 were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). The levels of glucose and insulin were significantly higher in diabetes than normal subjects on fasting as well as postprandial state (p<0.0l). The levels of IGF-I was significantly lower in diabetes than normal subjects, however in postprandial state, there was no significant difference between diabetes and control subjects, The levels of IGF-II were significantly lower in diabetes than control subjects both fasting and postpradial state, The level of IGFBP-3 were not significantly different between diabetes and normal subjects. Fasting IGF-I, IGF-II and IGFBP-3 levels were positively correlated with those levels on postprandial state, fasting IGe levels of IGF-I levels were positively correlated with fasting insulin levels, and postprandial IGF-I levels were positively correlated with fasting glucose, postprandial insulin and postprandial insulin levels, plasma triglyceride levels were correlated with plasma triglyceride levels. The IGFBP-3 levels were not correlated with IGF components, glucose, insulin and plasma lipids, These results demonstrate that in diabetes, the components IGF-I/IGFBPs system were significantly correlated with plsma glucose and insulin levels both fasting and postprandial state.

Hepatocyte nuclear factor-$4{\alpha}$ (HNF-$4{\alpha}$)는 췌장 베타세포의 발생, 분화에 중요한 역할을 하는 전사인자로서, 그 유전자 변이와 MODY와의 연관성이 보고된 바 있다. 특히, 일본인의 경우에는 HNF-$4{\alpha}$ 12352 C>T가 제2형 당뇨병과의 연관성이 있다고 보고되어 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 HNF-$4{\alpha}$의 유전자 변이와 제2형 당뇨병 사이에 어떠한 연관성이 한국인에서도 있는지 알아보았다. 그 결과, HNF-$4{\alpha}$의 유전자 변이인 12352 C>T와 제2형 당뇨병사이에는 구체적인 연관성이 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 제2형 당뇨병과의 연관성이 있다고 보고된 이전의 일본인이나 유럽인을 대상으로 한 연구결과와 다소 차이가 있는 것이며, 한국인을 위한 고유의 통계적 data로서 의미가 있는 것이라 하겠다. 이러한 차이를 보이는 원인을 유추해본다면, 인종에 따라 서로 다른 유전적 그리고 환경적인 요인의 차이에 의해 다형성이 미치는 영향력에 차이가 있기 때문으로 생각된다. 이는 당뇨병과 같은 질환이 특정한 한 두 개의 유전자 이상에 의해서 발생되기 보다는, 여러 유전자들이 상호 작용함으로써 발생할 뿐만 아니라 환경적인 요인의 영향을 많이 받기 때문에 인종이나 민독과 같은 인구 집단 사이에 유전인자의 차이가 생기는 것으로도 판단된다. 따라서 연구결과의 임상적인 의의를 확실하게 확인하기 위하여서는 향후 대상 환자 수와 대조군을 더욱 늘리고 다양한 HNF-$4{\alpha}$ 유전자 다형성을 후보로 하여 추가적인 연구를 할 필요가 있을 것으로 생각된다.

In this study, we examined the effects of dietary 1,3-diacylglycerol (DG) compared to conventional triacylglycerol (TG) oil on the postprandial response of total and chylomicron TG, glucose, insulin, and free fatty acid (FFA). This study was conducted using a cross-over design. Ninety subjects participated in the high-fat meal tolerance test where they were randomly assigned to consume two experimental sandwiches containing mayonnaise with TG or DG oil with a seven-day interval. Blood samples were collected before ingestion and at 2, 3, 4 and 6 hr time point after ingestion and analyzed for total and chylomicron TG, glucose, insulin, FFA and phospholipid fatty acid composition. Both TG and DG ingestion had similar effects on postprandial TG response, but a different response from chylomicron TG. Compared with the TG group, TG levels were significantly lower only at 6 hr time point in the DG group. On the other hand, chylomicron TG rose steeply at 2 hr time point and decreased faster in this group. Also, the adjusted value to fasting levels was the same as the unadjusted level. Fasting levels and net differences in insulin were significantly lower at 3 hr time point where chylomicron TG levels were significantly lower in the DG group. But those of glucose and FFA in the TG and DG groups did not differ significantly. Fasting and postprandial levels of fatty acid composition in serum phospholipids in the two groups did not differ significantly. In conclusion, this study indicated that one could reduce the magnitude of postprandial lipemia without influencing glucose metabolism by consumning DG oil as a substitute for TG oil. Based on the correlation of coronary artery disease and postprandial lipemia, dietary DG ingestion might have a beneficial effect in treating such a disease. Further studies are required to clarify the long-tenn effects of dietary DG on blood lipid levels in humans.

본 연구에서는 중년여성을 대상으로 식행동 개선을 초점을 두어 6개월 간 교육을 실시하여 식사의 질, 체성분 및 혈액 성분 변화를 알아보았다. 프로그램 종료 후 대상자를 식행동 점수 변화 정도에 따라 식행동향상군과 식행동비향상군으로 나누어 비교해 본 결과, 식행동향상군의 체중, BMI, 복부지방률 그리고 내장지방의 감소율이 식행동비향상군보다 더 컸고, 식이섬유, 칼슘, 철분, 비타민 C의 섭취 변화율도 식행동향상군이 식행동비향상군보다 더 컸으며, 식행동향상군에서만 각 영양소의 INQ와 MAR이 유의적으로 증가하였다. 또한 식행동향상군의 중성지방의 감소율이 식행동비향상군의 감소율보다 더 컸다. 동일한 영양교육에 참여하였지만 대상자가 스스로 잘못된 식행동을 개선할 경우, 식이섭취 수준이 더 많이 개선되었을 뿐만 아니라 식사의 질도 향상되었고, 체중과 체지방의 감량하였으며, 혈중 지질 수준도 향상시키는 효과를 보였다 이상의 연구에서처럼 식행동이 향상됨에 따라 체중감량과 식사의 질 개선 그리고 혈중 지질 변화에 효과적임을 알 수 있었고, 장기적으로 만성질환을 예방 관리할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 따라서 추후에 이루어지는 비만관리 프로그램은 영양지식의 전달에 초점을 맞추기보다는 균형잡힌 영양소 섭취와 식행동 개선 및 향상을 유도하는 교육내용이 포함되어 있는 체계적인 프로그램을 장기간 시행하여 식행동 향상에 따른 효과를 살펴보는 것이 필요하다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the health behaviors and nutritional status related to dyslipidemia in Korean middle-aged adults (between 50 and 64 years old) from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examinations Survey data (2007~2010). A total of 4,721 subjects were analyzed in this study. The subjects were divided into three groups (normal, borderline, and dyslipidemia) according to serum lipid levels. Parameters included in this study were drinking and smoking, anthropometric parameters, blood and nutritional parameters. The latter parameter included food/nutrients intake. All data was adjusted by sex, region, education level, and age. General linear model and logistic regression model were used for statistical analysis. The dyslipidemia group was comprised of more men than women. By contrast, the borderline group was comprised of more women than men (p<0.001). No significant differences were observed for other general characteristics. There were more smokers and drinkers(drinking per time) in the dyslipidemia group (p<0.05). Anthropometric data showed significant difference, ie, height (p<0.05), weight, body mass index, waist circumference, percent body fat, and blood pressure were higher in the dyslipidemia group (p<0.001). Only blood urea nitrogen showed no significant difference among groups. The HbA1c (p<0.01), fasting blood glucose, GOT, GPT, creatinine levels were higher in the dyslipidemia group (p<0.001). So it is required for the management of obesity in dyslipidemia group. The dyslipidemia group ate less sea food (p<0.05). The nutrients intake of energy and protein, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, calcium, phosphorus were lower in the dyslipidemia group (p<0.05). Therefore, to lower dyslipidemia prevalence rates, it is necessary to increase the intake of foods containing ${\omega}-3$ fatty acids. We also suggest a meal management program and nutritional education to recognize the risk of dyslipidemia, especially for people such as the individual in the borderline and dyslipidemia study groups.

당뇨 합병증을 일으키는 중요 매체인 산화 스트레스에 대한 매생이 추출물과 그 지표물질인 pheophorbide a (PhA)의 정소 조직 내 산화 스트레스 보호 효과를 streptozotocin(STZ)에 의해 유발된 당뇨 쥐 모델에서 확인하였다. 당뇨를 유발하는 물질로 알려진 STZ를 40 mg/kg body weight(b.w.)의 농도로 복강 투여하여 당뇨를 일으킨 후, 매생이 추출물(CFE)샘플을 각각 4, 20 mg/kg b.w. 그리고 PhA를 0.2 mg/kg b.w.로 9 주간 투여하여 실험하였다. 정소 조직에서 산화 스트레스에 생성되는 체내 과산화물 지표인 혈액 nitric oxide와 지질 과산화물이 당뇨 유발군에 비해 CFE와 PhA 투여군에서 유의적인 감소를 보였으며, 체내 과산화물 축적을 제어하는 효소인 glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase가 정상 수준으로 회복되었다. 또한, 체내 항산화 방어기작에서의 중요한 효소인 superoxide dismutase, catalase 활성 또한 샘플 투여 시 회복되는 것을 보아 CFE 투여군과 PhA투여군에서 조직 내 항산화 효소 조절과 함께 과산화물 축적 저해 효과를 통하여 당뇨 상태에서 고혈당에 의한 산화 스트레스가 일으키는 생식 조직 손상으로부터 매생이 추출물과 그 지표물질인 PhA는 보호 효과를 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

간기능 보호 작용이 있는 것으로 알려진 DDB, selenium과 glutathione의 혼합제제인 DWP-04의 간보호 작용을 검토할 목적으로 DWP-04를 실험동물에 경구로 투여하고서 D-galactosamine으로 간독성을 유발하여 혈액의 변동 및 간 조직에서의 활성산소 생성계 및 해독계의 활성에 미치는 영향을 관찰한 결과 GaIN의 단독투여는 대조군에 비하여 혈중 간 기능 지표효소 및 간 조직에서의 지질과산화의 함량이 현저히 증가하였으나, DWP-04의 전처리로 현저히 감소되었다. CaIN의 단독 투여로 활성산소의 생성계인 phase 1계의 효소가 현저히 증가하던 것이 DWP-04의 처리로 억제되었으며 해독계인 phase II계의 효소는 GaIN의 투여로 대조군에 비하여 억제되던 것이 DWP-04의 전처리로 정상군에는 미치지 않으나 유의성 있게 증가되었다. 간 조직중 glutathine의 함량은 CaIN의 투여로 현저히 억제되었으며 DWP-04의 투여로 증가하였는데 이러한 결과는 DWP-04의 투여로 glutathione peroxidase의 활성보다는 $\gamma-glutamylcysteine$ synthetase의 활성을 조절한 결과로 생각된다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 DWP-04의 투여는 활성산소의 생성 및 해독계를 조절하므로서 GaIN으로 인한 간손상을 보호하는 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.
