대구 및 대구 인근 경북지역 초등학교 4∼5학년에 재학 중인 남아 42명, 여아 55명을 대상으로 조사대상자들의 비만도에 따른 신체 계측치와 체성분 측정치, leptin를 비롯한 생화학적 자료들을 비교 분석하고, 이들 인자들간의 상호 관련성을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 여러 가지 방법으로 비만을 판정한 결과 체질량지수 25를 기준으로 하였을 때 비만군의 분포는 총 조사대상자의 30.9%, 상대체중 120%를 기준으로 하였을 때는 27.8%, 체지방을 25% 이상을 기준으로 했을 때는 56.7%로 나타났다. 체질량지수와 상대체중 상호간에는 높은 상관성 (r = 0.87, p <0.01)을 나타내었으나, 체지방율과는 중 정도의 상관성을 나타내었다 (r = 0.54, r = 0.59, p < 0.01). 2) 신체계측 및 체성분 분석 결과, 비만군이 대조군보다 신장, 체중 체지방량 제지방량, 근육량, 체지방을, 복부지방을, 체질량지수, 상완위 근육둘레가 남녀 모두 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p < 0.001). 특히 남아의 경우 비만군이 근육형태의 분포에서는 대조군과는 달리 저근육형 과체중의 분포가 매우 높게 나타났고, 신체발달점수도 유의하게 낮게 나타났다. 전체 조사대상자의 반 이상이 상하체 균형이 허약한 것으로 나타났다. 3) 혈액의 생화학적 검사 결과, 남아의 경우 HDL-cholesterol을 제외한 모든 측정치가, 여아의 경우 중성지방과 iron의 농도가 비만군이 대조군보다 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 혈중 leptin농도는 남녀 모두 비만군이 대조군보다 유의적으로 높게 나타났으나, 성별에 따른 혈중 leptin농도는 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 그러나 대조군에서는 여아가 남아보다 비만군에서는 오히려 남아가 여아보다 높은 경향을 보였다. 4) Leptin농도와 신체계측치 및 체성분 측정 치와의 관계에서 혈청 leptin함량은 측정된 모든 신체 계측치 및 체성분 분석치와 유의적인 높은 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 다변량분석 결과 전체대상자 중에서는 체질량지수가. 비만여부에 따라 분석하였을 때 대조군의 경우는 총지방량이 비만군의 경우는 체질량지수가 각각 독립적으로 leptin 농도에 실질적으로 예언력을 갖는 것으로 나타나 체지방 분포도에 따른 차이보다도 총체지방량 및 체질량지수와 관련이 더 있음을 보여주었다. 5) Leptin농도와 생화학적 지표와의 관련성을 분석한 결과, leptin 농도는 HDL-cholesterol를 제외한 측정된 모든 생화학적 지표와 유의적인 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 다변량분석 결과 전체대상자 중에서는 total-cholesterol, iron, 중성지방, ferritin의 농도가 각각 독립적으로 leptin 농도에 실질적인 예언력을 갖는 것으로 나타났고 비만 여부에 따라 분석하였을 때 비만군에서만 total-cholesterol, iron의 농도가 각각 독립적으로 leptin농도에 실질적인 예언력을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

Objetives This experimental study is designed to investigate the effects of kwakhyangjungkisangamibang extract on the changes of adipose tissues, serum insulin and leptin levels in rats induced by a high fat diet. The leptin has been proposed to be involved in the role of food intake and energy expenditure. Methods During the 8 weeks of experimental period, male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed on the 2 different diets: the normal diet AIN-76A and high fat(beef tallow) diet ad libitum, of which 40% of the calories intake was fat. 9 rats in the control and high fat diet group were killed for the baseline experiment at 4 weeks of age. The high fat diet group was divided into three groups: control group, experimental group I(high fat diet plus kwakhyangjungkisangamibang extract), and experimental group II(high fat diet plus mahuang). The body weight, hypodermal fat tissue, serum lipid profile, insulin and leptin levels were measured after the administration of the high fat diet and extract. Results 1. The body weight was decreased in experimental group II, but there was not a significance difference compared to the control group. 2. The peritoneal, visceral, and hypodermal adipose tissue was decreased in experimental group I, but there was not a significance difference compared to the control group. 3. The lipid profile was decreased in experimental group I, but not in group II. 4. The insulin concentration was increased in experimental group I and II, but there was not a significance difference compared to the control group. 5. The leptin level was increased significantly in experimental group I(p<0.05) and II(p<0.01) compared to the control group. Conclusion The results of this study indicate that kwakhyangjungkisangamibang has an effect on the regulation of obesity.

The aim of this study was to compare nutrient intakes, serum hormones (leptin, adiponectin, insulin), salivary cortisol and ${\alpha}$-amylase of middle-aged women by the percentage of body fat (% fat). Subjects were assigned to 3 groups by body fat (%) group I (27.5%), group II (32.5%), group III (37.7%). WHR of group II (0.97) was significantly higher than of group I, III (0.95) (p < 0.05). Nutrient intakes were not different among 3 groups. Serum leptin levels of group III ($16.53{\mu}g/ml$) were higher than in group I ($10.07{\mu}g/ml$), group II ($12.24{\mu}g/ml$) (p < 0.05). Salivary cortisol levels of group II ($0.39{\mu}g/dl$) were higher than in group I ($0.17{\mu}g/dl$) and group III ($0.15{\mu}g/dl$) (p < 0.05). Adiponectin concentrations were negatively correlated with TAS (r = -0.29) and positively correlated with HDL cholesterol (r = 0.27). Insulin levels were negatively correlated with total cholesterol (r = -0.33), Zn intake (r = -0.31) and positively correlated with WHR (r = 0.31). The overall anthropometric indices showed positive relations with leptin levels. Salivary cortisol levels were positively corelated with WHR (r = 0.28), total cholesterol (r = 0.31), MDA (r = 0.29) and intakes of SFA (r = 0.35) and MUFA (r = 0.3). Salivary amylase levels were positively correlated with overall nutrient intakes (energy, CHO, fat, cholesterol. Fe, SFA, MUFA, Zn, Na, vitamin $B_2$, r = 0.24-0.5) and was negatively correlated with HDL cholesterol (r = -0.34). These results suggested that 1) WHR would be a helpful index in the assessment of metabolic risk diseases. 2) Understanding of individual stress exposure should be considered in developing strategies for prevention and treatment of obesity.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of obesity on the physiological levels of adiponectin, leptin and components of metabolic syndrome (MS) in male workers, aged 30-40 years. Methods: Body mass index (BMI) was measured with Anthropometric equipment. Blood pressure and serum parameters were measured with an automatic digital sphygmomanometer and autochemical analyzer, respectively. Adiponectin and leptin were analysed by ELISA kits and MS was defined based on the NCEP-ATP III. Results: Body fat mass of waist and hip, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were significantly higher, as expected, in the BMI>25kg/$m^2$ in comparison with the $BMI{\leq}25kg/m^2$. While fasting glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR and leptin in the BMI>25kg/$m^2$ were also significantly higher compared with $BMI{\leq}25kg/m^2$, HDL-cholesterol and adiponectin were significantly higher in $BMI{\leq}25kg/m^2$. On multiple logistic regression analysis for the components of MS, exercise, adiponectin and leptin were an only independent factor for MS in non-obese male workers($BMI{\leq}25kg/m^2$) after adjustment for age, cigarette smoking and drinking habits. Conclusion: These results suggested that the obesity in men was associated with physiological levels of adiponectin and leptin contributing to feedback control of MS and that dysfunction and/or declination in feedback control system associated with changes in physiological levels of neurptrophics: adiponectin and leptin might ultimately induce MS.

This study analyzed the antioxidant properties of Equisetum arvense and its effects on serum factor levels in mice fed a high-fat diet. The aim was to establish a new effective resource for biologically active materials. E. arvense stem and root extracts were obtained using deionized water at $95^{\circ}C$, and 70.5% ethanol at $85^{\circ}C$. These extracts were used to analyze the total phenolic compounds and antioxidant (ABTS, DDPH, and FRAP) activities. The effects of prepared ground samples were evaluated by feeding them to mice. E. arvense extracts showed strong antioxidant effects. The caffeic acid content was highest in the 70.5% ethanol extract of the vegetative stem, as determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The blood concentrations of insulin and leptin were significantly lower in mice fed a high-fat diet supplemented with extracts of the root, reproductive stem, and vegetative stem of E. arvense than in mice fed only a high-fat diet. These results suggest that the polyphenolic compounds in E. arvense extracts exert various antioxidant effects. The stems and root of E. arvense can lower the blood levels of insulin and leptin, even after consumption of a high-fat diet.

Objectives : This experimental study was designed to investigate the effects of EjinTang-Gamybang(Erchentang-jiaweifang ; ETG) on the change of some values related to obesity and observe the complications coming from obesity in obese rat induced by high fat diet. Methods : Experimental group were as follows ; normal group were fed normal diet and administered DDW $1.0m{\ell}$ to rat during 7 weeks, control group were fed high fat diet and administered DDW $1.0m{\ell}$ during 7 weeks, sample A were fed high fat diet and administered ETG 500 mg/kg $1.0m{\ell}$ during 7 weeks, sample B were fed high fat diet and administered ETG 700 mg/kg $1.0m{\ell}$ during 7 weeks. Results & Conclusions : 1. Sample A and Sample B significantly decreased body weight, serum LDL-cholesterol level, serum free fatty acid level, serum total lipid level, serum phospholipid level and serum leptin level in comparison with control group. 2. Sample B significantly decreased serum total cholesterol level and serum triglyceride level in comparison with control group. 3. Sample B significantly increased serum HDL-cholesterol level in comparison with control group. According to above results, the author suggested that ETG was able to be used for the herbal medication of obesity. 4. ETG significantly increased rCBF, and increased CMF in a dose-dependent. 5. ETG significantly decreased MABP in a dose-dependent. 6. rCBF was significantly and stably increased by ETG(10 mg/kg, i.p.) during the period of cerebral reperfusion, which contrasted with the findings of rapid and marked increase in control group. This results were suggested that ETG significantly increased rCBF by dilating arterial diameter and activating serum leptin level. So that, the present author thought that ETG had an effects of obesity and complication coming from obesity(ischemic cerebral and cardiac disease).
