The effects of 3% Cortex Eucommiae extracts on serum lipid contents were evaluated in rats. Forty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing $100{\pm}10g$ were divided into seven groups and fed different fat diets for four weeks. Each group was administered with following group: Control, basal fat diet, saturated fat diet and unsaturated fat diet respectively was fed 1% cholesterol, Cortex Eucommiae extracts 3%. The contents of serum lipid contents triglyceride in the basal fat diet group were higher than those of control group. The contents of total-cholesterol in serum of the saturated fat diet group was significantly higher than other group. The contents of HDL-cholesterol in serum of the 3% Cortex Eucommiae extract group were higher than those other fat diet group. The contents of LDL-cholesterol in serum of the 3% Cortex Eucommiae ex1ract group was lower than other fat diet groups. These results suggest that 3% Cortex Eucommiae extract group may reduced elevated levels of serum lipid contents in rats different fed fat diet.

This study was carried out to examine whether kimchi has hypolipidemic effect and to know how it exert lipid-lowering effect in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with kimchi-fee diet, or 3%, or 5%, or 10% kimchi diets for 6 weeks. Plasma cholesterol level was lowered in rats fed all concentrations of kimchi diets, and plasma triglyceride(TG) level was lowered in 10% kimchi diet group compared with that of control significantly(p<0.05). Th intake of kimchi lowered VLDL-cholesterol and VLDL-TG levels, whereas increased HDL-cholesterol level significantly(p<0.05). LDL-cholesterol level was lowered only in 5% kimchi diet group and LDL-TG level was lowered in all kimchi diet groups compared with those of control significantly (p<0.05). the intake of 5% and 10% kimchi diets also lowered the levels of hepatic cholesterol, TG, total lipid, and apolipoprotein B, whereas increased the levels of fecal total fat, cholesterol, TG, and apolipoprotein A-1 significantly(p<0.05). Triiodothyronine(T$_3$) level was elevated in rats fed kimchi diet, whereas thyroxine(T$_4$) level was not affected by kimchi treatment. These observations support that the intake of kimchin in rats loweres plasma and hepatic lipid levels by increasing the excretion of TG and cholesterol through feces, by the elevation of T$_3$ level, and by the altered lipoprotein metabolism.

흰쥐에 cholesterol(0.5%) 및 A. keiskei(5%)를 급여 한 후 혈장 및 간장 지질대사 및 분변 중의 neutral steroids 및 담즙산 배설에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 혈장 cholesterol 농도는 식이중 cholesterol 첨가에 의해 현저히 증가되었으며, A. keiskei 급여시 유의적으로 감소하였다. 식이중 cholesterol 첨가는 혈장 HDL-cholesterol 함량을 유의적으로 감소시키는 반면 LDL-cholesterol을 크게 증가시켜 동맥경화지수를 높였다. A. keiskei 급여는 혈장 LDL-cholesterol의 유의적으로 감소시켰으며, 동맥경화지수도 cholesterol을 급여하지 않은 군에서 0.21, cholesterol 급여 군에서 0.52를 보여 A. keiskei를 급여하지 않은 각각의 대조군에 비하여 유의적 감소를 보여 A. keiskei가 혈장지질 개선효과를 보였다. A. keiskei 급여는 또한 cholesterol 급여와 관계없이 혈장 triglyceride 함량을 유의적으로 감소시키는 결과를 보였으나, 혈장 인지질 함량에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. A. keiskei 급여는 간조직의 total cholesterol, free cholesterol, cholesteryl ester 및 phospholipid 함량에는 영향을 미치지 않았으나, triglyceride 함량은 식이중 cholesterol 첨가와 관계없이 유의적으로 감소시켰다. A. keiskei는 cholestanol, 총 neutral steroid 및 담즙산의 배설을 증가시켰다. 이와 같은 결과로 보아 A. keiskei에 의한 혈장 cholesterol의 감소는 cholesterol 흡수의 감소 및 cholesterol을 cholestanol으로의 전환과 담즙산으로의 배설이 증가됨에 일부 기인하는 것으로 사료된다.

Objective : Yegangji-tang (YJT) is noted in China as effective medicine for hyperlipidemia. This experiment was performed to determine the effects of Yegangji-tang (銳降脂湯: YJT) on antioxidant activity and hyperlipidemia induced by hypercholesterolemic diet in mice. Methods : We observed three experimental groups: normal, control, and treatment. Rats were provided a normal diet in the normal group, and the other groups were provided a hypercholesterolemic diet to induce hyperlipidemia. After 2 weeks, YJT was treated to the treatment group. We observed the change of body and liver weight, change of serum total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity of liver tissue, cholesterol gene revelation control efficiency, and histologic change of liver and abdominal aorta. Results : Total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides decreased significantly with YJT, whereas HDL cholesterol increased significantly. Lipid peroxidation decreased and antioxidant activity of the liver increased significantly. Gene revelation of ACAT and HMG-CoA reductase in hepatic tissue decreased significantly with YJT. We also found that tissue defects of the liver and abdominal aorta were controlled by YJT on histologic study. Conclusion : These results suggest that YJT might be effective in treatment and prevention of hyperlipidemia.

본 연구에서는 한국인 성인에서 ant-HCV 양성인 군에서 HCV RNA 유무에 따른 지질, 인슐린저항성 및 대사증후군의 지표 수준의 차이를 알아보고자 하였다. 2004년 1월 1일부터 2010년 12월 31일까지 부산의 일개 대학병원 건강증진센터를 방문하여 검사한 효소면역측정법에서 anti-HCV 양성인 수진자 중 RT-PCR을 시행한 성인 222명을 대상으로 하였다. 이 중 HCV RNA가 양성인 사람이 85명, HCV RNA가 음성인 사람이 115명, HCV RNA의 음전이 확인된 사람이 22명이었다. 허리둘레, 체질량지수, 혈압과 총콜레스테롤, LDL 콜레스테롤, HDL 콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 인슐린저항성의 상관 관계를 분석하고, 나이, 성별을 보정한 후 세 군간의 콜레스테롤, 대사적 지표, 인슐린저항성의 차이를 알아보았다. HCV RNA 양성군에서 음성군 및 음전군과 비교하여 허리둘레, 체질량지수, 혈압, 중성지방, HDL 콜레스테롤, 인슐린저항성 등에 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. HCV RNA 양성군에서 음성군에 비해 총콜레스테롤과 LDL 콜레스테롤이 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다($186.24{\pm}37.63$ vs $197.22{\pm}37.23mg/dl$ ($mean{\pm}SD$), p=0.041, $111.66{\pm}34.06$ vs $121.38{\pm}35.50mg/dl$ ($mean{\pm}SD$), p=0.042). 나이, 성별을 보정한 뒤, HCV RNA 양성군과 음성군 간에 고콜레스테롤혈증과 LDL 콜레스테롤혈증의 교차비는 0.51(95% 신뢰구간 0.28-0.94, p=0.03), 0.46(95% 신뢰구간 0.24~0.87, p=0.02)이다. HCV RNA 양성군에서 음성군에 비해 고콜레스테롤혈증, LDL 콜레스테롤혈증의 유병률이 통계학적으로 유의하게 낮았으나, HCV RNA 음전군은 양성군에 비하여 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. C형 간염과 대사증후군의 관계를 보다 정확히 규명하기 위해서는 향후 보다 대규모 집단에서 전향적인 코호트 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was carried out to compare UCP2 polymorphism, dietary habits, and obesity index in normal and obese university students. The survey was carried out using self-questionnaires collected from the 126 normal and 60 obese university students. The results are summarized as follows. Breakfast was skipped in 43.7% of normal and 49.3% of obesity students and it appeared obese students eat faster than normal students. The percentage of weight control experience were 49.2 and 71.0 in the normal and obese students, respectively. Blood levels of lipid profiles(triglyceride, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol), hemoglobin, AST and ALT were anaylzed. In UCP2 genes, the frequency of deletion homozygote(DD) was 71.5%, heterozygote(DI) was 26.9% and insertion homozygote(II) was 1.6%. Plasma levels of triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol of normal students were 79.06, 172.25, 100.86 and 57.03 mg/dl, and those of obese students were 93.06, 173.22, 101.22 and 54.39 mg/dl, respectively. Blood parameters were in normal range in both group. Plasma triglyceride, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels of obese students were higher than those of normal students. On the other hand, plasma HDL cholesterol levels of obese students were lower than those of normal students. Plasma levels of AST and ALT were in normal range in both group. However, AST and ALT levels of obese students were higher than that of normal students. Thus, it was recommended for them to have a nutritional education program to improve their dietary and living habits for obese students’health. Nutritional education program should also be organized practically and systematically.

In order to investigate the relationships of obesity in childhood to plasma lipid, blood pressure and blood glucose concentration, we selected 21 subjects for the moderate obese group(MO), 9 for mild obese group(MI), and 19 for the control group(C) among children aged 10~12. While the level of plasma triglyceride and VLDL-cholesterol of the MO group was much higher than that of group C, a significantly lower percentage of HDL-cholesterol was found in the MO compared to the percentage found in group C. Also the level of the total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol of the MI group as well as the MO was much higher than that of C. The elevated total-cholesterol level of the Mi group was due to increased LDL-cholesterol and that of the MO was due to increases in both VLDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol. As the result of these differences, the atherogenic index of the MO was significantly higher than that of C. The incidence of hypercholesterolemia( 200mg/dl) of the MI and MO was 60.0% and 77.8% respectively, All of the physical parameters and indexes except height were positively correlated with plasma lipid levels, systolic blood pressure, and blood glucose concentration. The analyses of the correlated with plasma lipid levels, systolic blood pressure, and blood glucose concentration. The analyses of the correlation indicated that central fat to peripheral fat ratio and waist to thigh girth ratio seemed to be closely associated to plasma lipid levels and atherogenic index. The MO had significantly higher systolic blood pressure than C and significantly higher blood glucose concentration was found in both MI and MO than in C. These results confirmed that obesity in childhood may be relevant to chronic metabolic diseases such as abnormal lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure and diabetes mellitus.

To investigate the effects of yellow soybean powder on serum lipid level and enzyme activities, male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were given hyperlipidemic diets for 6 weeks. Rats(n=8) were divided into three groups consisting the normal group(N), hyperlipidemic diets group(C) and hyperlipidemic diets and yellow soybean powder group(YSP). YSP group lowered triglyceride, total lipid, phospholpid, ester-cholesterol and free-cholesterl than control group. YSP group lowered total-cholesterol, VLDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol but increased HDL-cholesterol of the serum compared to the control group. Athergenic Index(AI) and LHR(LDL-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio) of YSP group was decreased by control group (p<0.05). On the other hand, glutamic oxaloacetate transaminase(GOT), glutamic pyruvate transaminase (GTP), lactate dehydrogenase(LDHase) and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) enzymes activities were decreased by hyperlipidemic diets group (C). These results suggest that yellow soybean powder fed a lipid lowering effect in serum of rats.
