  • This study was evaluated to biological activity of breeding lines from Acantopanax( A. sessiliflorus: ASF, A. koreanum: AKN, A. chiicanensis: ACS, A. senticosus: AST) and parts(root, stem, fruit, and leaf) and various extracted solvents( 100% water, 100% EtOH, 50% EtOH). Total polyphenol content of AKN root in 100% water extracts was high detected 464.46 mg/100 g. Total flavonoid content in the leaf was significantly higher than in other parts. The content of total sugars was high in the 50% EtOH extracts and fruit. The major free amino acids were arginine in all extracts. The content of arginine was detected in the root of AKN(1.807 mg/100 mg). Contents of eleutheroside B, E were high detected in 100% water extracts. Antioxidative capacity in the leaves of AKN was the higher than other extracts($EC_{50}=84.8{\mu}g/mL$). The results would be useful for understanding of the physiological properties of AKN extracts.

  • Three flavonoids, quercetin, taxifolin, and kaempferol were isolated from the woods of Liriodendron tulipifera. Their structures were determined by spectral analysis. Based on 1, l-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity method, the antioxidative activities of three isolated compounds and their acetates were measured in order to search for natural antioxidants. The IC50 of quercetin (1), taxifolin (2), and kaempferol (3) were 3.6, 3.9, and 4.1 ㎍/㎖, respectively.

  • In this study, we investigated in vitro inhibitory activity of wild-simulated ginseng (WSG) against non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using HepG-2 cells. T0901317 treatment increased the lipid accumulation in HepG-2 cells, but WSG treatment inhibited T0901317-mediated lipid accumulation. In addition, WSG downregulated T0901317-mediated expression of SREBP-1c, ACC, FAS and SCD-1 protein. In addition, WSG increased the phosphorylation level of LKB1 and AMPK. Compound C treatment blocked WSG-mediated downregulation of SREBP-1c protein. In conclusion, WSG is considered to inhibit the accumulation of lipids and triglycerides in HepG-2 cells by inducing the activation of LKB1 and AMPK successively, thereby reducing the expression of FAS, ACC, and SCD-1 through suppression of SREBP-1c expression.

  • 최근 버즘나무류에 문제가 되고 있는 버즘나무방패벌레 방제를 위한 약제시험을 수간주사방법을 이용하여 실시한 결과 모노포, 포스팜, 이미다크로프리드, 치아메톡삼 및 아세타미프리드 처리에서 각각 99.6%, 88.9%, 98.9%, 99.7%와 100%의 높은 살충율을 보였다. 수간주사한 약제의 약효지속성을 조사한 결과 1개월 이상 경과한 약제처리 잎에 공시충을 접종하여도 높은 치사율을 보여 본 해충의 생태특성상 년간 2-3회 이상에 걸쳐 방제해야 되는 수관살포법에 반해 수간주사법은 1회 처리로 방제가 가능하기 때문에 방제인력을 절감할 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 수간주사 시 적용할 수 있는 경급별 적정약량 기준표 작성을 위해 흉고직경 크기에 따라 $1.0m{\ell}/DBH\;cm$, $1.5m{\ell}/DBH\;cm$, $2.0m{\ell}/DBH\;cm$의 약량을 수간주입한 결과 흉고직경 20cm 이하에서는 DBH cm당 $1.0m{\ell}$의 약량으로 95% 이상의 살충효과를 얻을 수 있었으나, 30-50cm에서는 $1.5-2.5m{\ell}$의 약량을 필요로 하였으며 50cm 이상의 대경목에서는 그 이상의 약량이 소요되었다. 한편 버즘나무방패벌레 수관살포약제 선발을 위하여 성충과 약충이 동시 가해하는 6월 하순에 3개 약종에 대한 엽면살포시험을 실시한 결과 에토펜프록스 20%EC, 에토펜프록스 10%WP, 할로스린 1%EC 처리에서 99% 이상의 높은 방제효과를 보였다.

  • We selected 6 plots ($100m^2$) located 2.2-3.8 km from Minamidake Crater on the north flank of Sakurajima Volcano. We conducted a field study to investigate the effects of volcanic activity on vegetation succession and surface erosion rate. The results showed that trees growing in plots further from the crater had a greater diameter at breast height (DBH), total height, and age. In addition, these plots had a greater number of woody plants and species, as well as a greater total cross-sectional area at breast height. The Fisher-Williams index of diversity (${\alpha}$) and the proportion of evergreen broad-leaved trees were higher in plots located further from the crater. Vegetation succession in these plots was not at the level of a climax forest. From 1972 to 2015, the timing for active volcano, the depth of volcanic ash layer, the dry density, and the pH of ground surface were lower for plots located further from the crater. Furthermore, the average annual sheet erosion from 1972 to 2015 was also lower for plots located further away from the crater. Overall, plots further away from the crater have a better environment for vegetation growth and a lower dry density of the volcanic ash surface layer. It is thought that lower dry density results in increased soil permeability, which impedes surface flow. In order to prevent debris-flow disasters, caused by mud and rock flow resulting from impaired soil penetrability, it is essential to promote soil development and restore penetrability by artificial vegetation restoration.

  • Hibiscus syriacus exhibited promising potential as a new source of food and colorants containing various anthocyanins. However, the function of anthocyanins from H. syriacus has not been investigated. In the current study, we evaluated whether anthocyanins from the H. syriacus varieties Pulsae and Paektanshim (PS and PTS) inhibit melanin biogenesis. B16F10 cells and zebrafish larvae were exposed to PS and PTS in the presence or absence of ${\alpha}$-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (${\alpha}$-MSH), and melanin contents accompanied by its regulating genes and proteins were analyzed. PS and PTS moderately downregulated mushroom tyrosinase activity in vitro, but significantly decreased extracellular and intracellular melanin production in B16F10 cells, and inhibited ${\alpha}$-MSH-induced expression of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) and tyrosinase. PS and PTS also attenuated pigmentation in ${\alpha}$-MSH-stimulated zebrafish larvae. Furthermore, PS and PTS activated the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), whereas PD98059, a specific ERK inhibitor, completely reversed PS- and PTS-mediated anti-melanogenic activity in B16F10 cells and zebrafish larvae, which indicates that PS- and PTS-mediated anti-melanogenic activity is due to ERK activation. Moreover, chromatography data showed that PS and PTS possessed 17 identical anthocyanins as a negative regulator of ERK. These findings suggested that anthocyanins from PS and PTS inhibited melanogenesis in vitro and in vivo by activating the ERK signaling pathway.

  • 식 약용 자원으로 활용도가 매우 높고 약리활성이 우수한 것으로 잘 알려진 우리나라 자생 복분자딸기 선발클론의 과실특성과 당도 및 항산화 활성을 조사 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 과실의 채취시기별 특성과 당도 변화를 조사한 결과, 과실횡경을 제외한 모든 요인들에서 클론간, 채취 시기간에 유의적인 차이가 있었으며 클론별로 SG 3호가 5클론들 중 가장 높은 당도를 나타낸 반면에 CJ 18호와 SH 3호 등은 반대의 경향을 보였다. 조사된 당도요인과 동일 기간 수원기상대에서 측정된 최고기온, 강수량 등 일별 기상자료들과의 상관을 분석한 결과, 최고기온이 $29.5^{\circ}C$ 이상일 때에는 전일에 비하여 당도의 상승 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타났으며 121.5 mm의 강수량이 기록되었던 7월 22일과 그 다음날에는 당도의 하향 경향이 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 아울러, 일강수량이 0.1 mm만을 기록한 7월 18일 오후까지의 당도는 평균 당도인 9.7 Brix보다도 높은 10.4- 11.5 Brix로 나타났다. 과실의 채취층위별 특성과 당도 변화를 조사한 결과, 조사된 클론간에는 유의적인 차이가 있었으나 채취층위에 있어서는 당도요인만이 유의적인 차이를 보였다. 클론별로는 MJ 11호가 15클론들 중 가장 크고 우수한 특성을 나타내었으나 당도에 있어서는 10.3 Brix로 약간 낮은 경향을 보였고 HAE 5호와 MC 9호는 불량한 과실특성을 나타낸 반면에 당도는 10.6 Brix와 13.4 Brix로 평균 당도인 9.8 Brix보다도 높은 경향을 보였다. 채취층위별 당도는 상층부에서 채취한 과실의 평균 당도가 10.2 Brix로 중 하층부에서 채취한 과실의 평균 당도 9.7 Brix와 9.5 Brix 보다도 높게 나타났다. 총 30클론의 과실에 대한 Free radical 소거능에 기인한 항산화 활성을 분석한 결과, 조사된 클론간에 차이가 있었으며 특히, 미숙과는 250~ 1,000 ppm의 농도에서 94.5~95.7%의 높은 소거능 활성을 나타내었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 국내 자생하고 있는 갈매나무과 식물 13종에 대한 부위별(잎, 가지, 열매) 물 추출물의 NO 생성능을 통하여 면역증진 활성을 측정하여 기능성을 검토하였다. 망개나무, 헛개나무, 까마귀베개, 산황나무, 갈매나무, 참갈매나무, 상동나무 등에서 50% 이상 NO 생성능을 보여줌으로써 대식세포 활성화를 검증하였다. 또한 PCR 전기영동을 통하여 면역증진과 관련된 cytokine인 iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α의 발현을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 갈매나무과 분류군들의 부위별 NO 생성능, mRNA 발현 등과 같은 면역 활성에 대한 과학적 근거를 제시할 수 있었고, 이는 면역증진 관련 소재 발굴 및 제품 개발에 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide information on a forest healing environment using the analysis of nature volatile organic compounds (NVOCs) and thermal comfort in Chungnam National University Experimental Forest, with the aim of using the Experimental Forest as a healing environment for health promotion. We analyzed NVOCs and thermal comfort of Chungnam National University Experimental Forest measured on September 12th, 2021. As a result of the NVOC analysis, a total of seven substances were detected, mainly including alpha pinene and beta pinene. The detection amount for each time period was highest at the time of sunset. The thermal comfort was analyzed by time-dependent changes and changes according to clothing and exercise amount. The results showed that the predicted mean vote of the experimental forest is within the range of 'slightly cool' and 'slightly warm' sensation, and thus a comfortable thermal environment could be controlled by the amount of clothing and activity. Based on the analysis, this study provides information on the healing environment of the experimental forest at Chungnam National University. It also indicates that the forest can be used as a health promotion and healing environment with thermal comfort by composing a physical activity program of appropriate intensity for each time period.
