The purpose of this study was to investigate the biological activities of cultivated Angelica gigas Nakai (CAG) and wild Angelica gigas Nakai (WAG) extracts prepared by extraction with water, 30% ethanol, 60% ethanol, or 90% ethanol. The electron donating ability of the WAG extracts was higher than that of the CAG extracts and 0.1% and 1.0% solutions of the comparative substance, L-ascorbic acid. The superoxide dismutase-like activity of the CAG extracts was higher than that of WAG extracts. Superoxide dismutase-like activity was highest (33.95%) in the CAG water extract. The total polyphenol content was highest in the 60% ethanol extracts of WAG. The nitrite scavenging ability of the CAG and WAG extracts was highest at a pH of 1.2. The tyrosinase inhibitory effect was highest (43.72%) in the water extract of WAG. The angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activity was highest (83.84%) in the 60% ethanol extract of WAG. The results of the present study will be useful for understanding the antioxidant and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activities of Angelica gigas Nakai extracts.

To enhance the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content, the optimized fermentation of soybean with added sea tangle extract was evaluated at 30℃ and pH 5.0. The medium was first inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae strain FMB S46471 and fermented for 3 days, followed by the subsequent inoculation with Lactobacillus brevis GABA 100. After fermentation for 7 days, the fermented soybean showed approximately 1.9 g/kg GABA and exhibited higher ACE inhibitory activity than the traditional soybean product. Furthermore, several peptides in the fraction containing the highest ACE inhibitory activity were identified. The novel fermented soybean enriched with GABA and ACE inhibitory components has great pharmaceutical and functional food values.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is widely used as a common condiment for a variety of foods and beverages. In addition to its extensive utilization as a spice, the fresh or the processed rhizome is a useful crude drug in traditional Chinese medicine. It is considered to possess stomachic, carminative, stimulant, diuretic and antiemetic properties. Chemical studies on the pungent principles of ginger have been carried out by a number of investigators, and 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol as a major pungent substance have been isolated. In this study, the constituents inhibiting a drug metabolizing enzyme CYP3A4 from ginger were investigated. CYP3A4 is responsible for drug metabolism as heme-containing monooxygenases. As a result of experiment, 10-gingerol (lC$_{50}$ 5.75$\mu$M) isolated from EtOAc extract of ginger showed remarkable inhibitory activity compared to 6-gingerol ($IC_{50}$/ 14.56 $\mu$M) and zingerone ($IC_{50}$/ 379.63 $\mu$M). This paper describes the isolation, structure elucidation, and CYP3A4 inhibitory activity of these compounds. The structure of the compounds were identified by instrumental analysis such as LC-mass spectrometer and NMR.R.

A peptide that inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was isolated from a hydrolysate of Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) proteins prepared with thermolysin. Amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined to be Leu-Leu-Pro. Chemically synthesized Leu-Leu-Pro had an $IC_{50}\;value\;of\;158\;\mu{M}$. Peptides related to the Manila clam-derived peptide were synthesized to study the structure-activity relationships. The tetrapeptide, Leu-Leu-Pro-Pro, had a very weak effect on the enzyme. However, Leu-Leu-Pro-Asn showed no inhibitory activity.

While searching for ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitors, the active compound was found in a methanol extract of Burthus martensi Kirsch. The separation of the active compound was performed using various chromatography methods and the physico-chemical properties of the purified compound were characterized. The compound showed very potent inhibitory activity against ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ with an $IC_{50}$ value of $5.3\;{\mu}g/ml$. Lineweaver-Burk plot indicated that its inhibition of ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ was competitive.

Polyhydroxystilbenes including resveratrol were reported to competitively inhibit monoamine oxidase-A-without structural relation with substrates and cynthetic inhibitors for the enzyme. We attempt to explore a plausible mechanism for their inhibitory activity on MAO-A. All the polyhydroxystilbenes tested showed the antioxidant activity on liver homogenate. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity turned out to closely correlate with the MAO-A inhibitory activity.

본 연구는 선씀바귀의 항산화 및 탄수화물 소화효소 억제 효과를 평가하여 제 2형 당뇨환자에게 중요한 항산화제 및 혈당 상승 억제제로서의 가능성을 타진하고자 하였다. 선씀바귀 추출물의 총 폴리페놀, 플라보노이드 함량과 in vitro 항산화 활성 및 소화효소 저해 활성을 조사한 결과 ISE가 ISW보다 총페놀과 플라보노이드 함량이 높았고 항산화 활성 및 소화효소 저해 활성 또한 높았다. ISE의 계통분획물 중에 에틸아세테이트 분획물과 부탄올 분획물의 소화효소 저해 활성이 가장 우수하고, 추출물의 항산화활성과 탄수화물 소화효소 억제효과가 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드함량과 높은 상관성을 가지는 것으로 볼 때, ISW에 비해 상대적으로 높은 ISE의 항산화 및 소화효소 저해 활성은 페놀 화합물, 특히 플라보노이드 화합물 때문임을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 ISE와 에틸아세테이트 그리고 부탄올 분획물은 우수한 항당뇨 기능성 소재라고 판단된다.

본 연구는 L. plantarum K79를 이용하여 ACE 억제활성 향상을 위한 최적의 발효조건을 RSM을 이용하여 예측하고자 하였다. 4개의 독립변수[탈지유(포도당 1% 첨가) 농도(6%-14%), 배양 온도(32℃-42℃), 배양 시간(8-24시간), 스타터 첨가량(0.02%-0.2%)] 5단계 중심 합성 설계 및 반응 표면 분석법을 사용하여 최적의 발효 조건을 결정하는 데 사용하였다. 종속변수는 ACE 억제 활성과 pH였다(이때 ACE 억제율은 조건별 발효원액에서 100배 희석하여 나타낸 값이다). 결정 계수(R²)는 ACE 억제 활성, pH에 대해 각각 0.791, 0.905이었다. 최대 ACE 억제 활성은 10% 탈지유(포도당 1% 첨가) 농도, 37℃ 배양 온도, 17.8 h 배양 시간 및 0.2% 스타터 첨가량 조건에서 90%이었다. RSM에 기초하여 예측된 최적 발효 ACE 조건은 탈지유(포도당 1% 첨가) 농도 13.49%, 스타터 0.0578%, 배양온도 33.4℃에서 21.5시간 동안 배양할 때 ACE 억제 활성 및 pH의 예측 값은 86.69% 및 pH 4.6이었으며 실제 값은 각각 85.5%와 pH 4.58이었다.

In order to clarify one of the biological functions of pork, we investigated whether a peptic hydrolysate of denatured porcine crude myosin showed inhibitory activity against angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), which contributed to hypertension. Our results indicated that this hydrolysate showed relatively strong activity, and we therefore attempted to separate the involved peptides, which were considered to be active substances. To isolate these active peptides, the hydrolysate was separated using a solidphase separation, gel filtration high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and two kinds of reverse phase HPLC. In each stage of separation, many fractions were detected, almost all of which showed ACE inhibitory activity. Thus, we suggested that the activity of the hydrolysate as a whole was a result of the activities of the many individual peptides. Six peaks were distinguished, with yields from 34 to 596 ppm of original crude myosin. In addition to the six peaks, many other active fractions were found throughout the separation steps, strongly suggesting that whole porcine crude myosin itself had ACE inhibitory activity. Moreover, pork as food was considered to function as an ACE inhibitory material in vivo, because pork proteins consist primarily of crude myosin, which included almost all the myofibrillar structural proteins.
