This study was carried out to investigate the anti-oxidant effect of Wasabia japonica(WJ). The anti-oxidant activities of various extracts from WJ were investigated. The water and ethanol extracts of WJ leaf were found to cause significant free radical scavenging effects on DPPH and nitric oxide(NO). Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly assigned to one normal diet and three high cholesterol diet groups which contained 1%(w/w) cholesterol. After 4weeks cholesterol diet, the groups of high cholesterol diet were classified to control(normal diet only), WJR5(normal diet and 5% WJ root) and WJL5(normal diet and 5% WJ leaf). Liver xanthine oxidase(XO) activity in the rats of high cholesterol diet was decreased up to the levels of normal diet group according to WJ diet. The results indicated that WJ possesses antioxidant effects through free radical scavenging effects on DPPH, NO and the decreasing of XO activity. In view of these results, WJ is expected to be an effective material for the anti-oxidant.

32종의 생약재를 메탄올로 추출한 후 진공 건조한 후 각추출물의 생리활성 물질 및 알코올 대사와 관련된 효소활성을 측정하였다. DPPH법으로 free radical 소거능을 측정한 결과 정향, 녹차, 목단, 적양은 90% 이상의 소거활성을 보이고, 부위별로 살펴보면 줄기껍질＞ 잎 > 열매 > 뿌리 순으로 활성이 나타났다. 아질산염 소거능은 천초, 적양, 녹차, 지구자목, 팔각향 등이 우수한 소거활성을 보였고, 이 또한 부위별로는 줄기껍질이나 잎에서의 활성이 더 우수한 것으로 나타나 여러 생약재 중 줄기껍질이나 잎에 존재하는 페놀성 화합물이나 flavonoids류가 이와 같은 기능성에 영향을 줄 것으로 간주된다. ADH 활성 측정은 일반적으로 숙취현상에 효과가 있다고 알려져 있는 생약재 13종을 사용하여 알코올 탈수소효소 저해를 측정한 결과 13종의 생약재 모두 90% 이상의 강한 저해효과를 보였다. 그러므로 free radical 소거능이나 아질산염 소거능이 우수한 몇몇 생약재, 즉 녹차, 적양 등은 알코올의 대사와 관련하여 알코올의 대사과정 중 ADH의 활성을 저해하므로써 간 보호 효과와 숙취현상 억제에 효과적이라 사료된다.

This study was designed to investigate the protective effect of Sasa borealis leaf extract on 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH)-induced oxidative stress in LLC-PK1 cells (porcine kidney epithelial cells). The butanol fraction from Sasa borealis leaf extract (SBBF) was used in this study because it possessed strong antioxidant activity and high yield among fractions. Exposure of LLC-PK1 cells to 1 mM AAPH for 24 hr resulted in a significant decrease in cell viability, but SBBF treatment protected LLC-PK1 cells from AAPH-induced cell damage in a dose dependant manner. To determine the protective action of SBBF against AAPH-induced damage of LLC-PK1 cells, we measured the effects of SBBF on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes activities of AAPH treated cells as well as scavenging activities on superoxide anion radical and hydroxyl radical. SBBF had a protective effect against the AAPH-induced LLC-PK1 cellular damage and decreased lipid peroxidation and increased activities of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. Furthermore, SBBF showed strong scavenging activity against superoxide anion radical. The $IC_{50}$ value of SBBF was $28.45{\pm}1.28\;{\mu}g/mL$ for superoxide anion radical scavenging activity. The SBBF also had high hydroxyl radical scavenging activity ($IC_{50}=31.09{\pm}3.08\;{\mu}g/mL$). These results indicate that SBBF protects AAPH-induced LLC-PK1 cells damage by inhibiting lipid peroxidation, increasing antioxidant enzyme activities and scavenging free radicals.

본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 참당귀추출물 1 mg/mL의 농도에서 열수추출물의 free radical소거 효과는 메탄올추출 물보다 높게 나타났으며 농도 의존적으로 DPPH free radical 소거 효과가 상승하는 것을 관찰하였다. 또한 참당귀 투여에 의하여 화학요법으로 발생된 지질과산화물의 생성을 감소시켰으며, 단백질 산화를 유의적으로 억제함으로써 참당귀추출물은 CYP를 투여로 생성된 free radical을 감소시킴으로써 독성을 감소시켜, 혈액학적 빈혈지표가 더 감소되는 것을 막았다고 사료되며, 항산화제로서의 가능성이 있는 한약재로서 활용성이 높을 것으로 사료된다 항산화효소인 SOD 활성은CYP투여에 의하여 활성이 증가하였으며 참당귀추출물의 투여에 의한 효과가 나타나지 않았으나 감소하는 경향을 보였고 catalase 활성은 CYP 투여에 의하여 활성이 증가하였으나 참당귀의 효과는 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로 참당귀추출물은 free radical 소거능을 갖고, 화학요법으로 발생된 지질과산화물의 생성을 낮춰 화학요법에 의한 부작용으로 발생되는 혈액학적 수치의 감소를 막음으로써 항산화제로의 활용성을 기대해본다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of cabbage powder on the quality characteristics of rice nutritional bars. Methods: In order to analyze quality characteristics, total phenolic content, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, baking loss rate, leavening rate, specific volume, moisture content, color, texture analysis, and sensory evaluations were assessed. Results: The total phenolic content and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of rice nutritional bars significantly increased with an increase in the content of cabbage powder (p<0.05). The baking loss rate, leavening rate, specific volume, and moisture content of the rice nutritional bars were significantly reduced as the amount of added cabbage powder increased (p<0.05). As the concentration of cabbage powder increased, the lightness and redness of the bars' crust and crumbs decreased, while yellowness increased (p<0.05). In texture analysis, the control bars showed the highest hardness values. Adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness values slightly decreased with higher cabbage powder content in the groups with added cabbage powder (p<0.05). When consumer acceptability was measured, rice nutritional bars prepared with 15% cabbage powder showed the highest scores in color, whereas the rice nutritional bars prepared with 20% cabbage powder showed the lowest scores in flavor (p<0.05). In characteristic intensity rating, the taste and off-flavor of rice nutritional bars significantly increased with increasing amounts of cabbage powder (p<0.05). Conclusion: Judging from our results, it can be concluded that the addition of cabbage powder to rice nutritional bars during processing can enhance consumer preference for the bars, total phenolic content, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity.

Objectives : Agrimoniae Herba is a herbal medicine widely distributed in Asia and contains flavonoids including catechin, quercitrin, rutin, hyperoside, and quercetin. This study aimed to investigate the anti-oxidant activity and skin barrier function of different solvent fractions (Hexane; methylene chloride, MC; ethyl acetate, EA; n-butanol, Bu; Water) obtained from Agrimoniae Herba. Methods : Anti-oxidant activity of different solvent fractions obtained from Agrimoniae Herba was investigated through total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity, and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity measurements. Then, filament aggregating protein (Filaggrin), Type I collagen, ceramide synthase (CERS) 3, and CERS4 were analyzed to evaluate the skin barrier strengthening effect of different solvent fractions obtained from Agrimoniae Herba on UVB-stimulated HaCaT cells. Results : As a result of measuring total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, and ABTS radical scavenging activity, antioxidant activity was found to be excellent in the order of EA > Bu > MC > Hexane > Water. As a result of measuring mRNA gene expression of Type I collagen, Filaggrin, CERS3, and CERS4 after UVB-stimulated was applied to HaCaT cells treated with different solvent fractions obtained from Agrimoniae Herba, it was found to increase significantly in the Bu-treated group. Conclusion : Our findings show that the Bu sample obtained from Agrimoniae Herba has excellent anti-oxidant ability, which increases Type I collagen, Filaggrin, and ceramide synthetase in UVB-stimulated HaCaT cells to control the skin barrier improvement effect.

Objectives : Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) were well known as anti-oxidant, but they were limited to use because of toxicity. So, many studies are being done to develope natural anti-oxidant. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents along with total antioxidant capacity of the ethanolic extract of Plantaginis Herba (PH) were evaluated to explore the reliable and potential sources of novel natural antioxidants. Methods : Total polyphenol contents and total flavonoid contents in PH ethanol extract were determined by colorimetric method. And DPPH(1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS(2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-Surfonicacid)) free radical scavenging capacity and reducing power inhibition activities of PH ethanol extract were measured at 100, 500, 1000, $5000{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ concentrations by spectrometric assay. Results : The total polyphenol contents and total flavonoid contents of the extract were 161.99 mg/g, 144.05 mg/g, respectively. Also, DPPH, ABTS free radical scavenging capacity and reducing power of PH ethanol extract in treated concentrations (100, 500, 1000, $5000{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) increased dose dependently. In particular, DPPH free radical scavenging capacity of PH ethanol extract from $500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ was significantly increased compared to positive control (BHA). ABTS free radical scavenging capacity of PH ethanol extract from $1000{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ was significantly higher than BHA. Also, reducing power showed that PH ethanol extract from $500{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ was significantly increased compared to BHA. Conclusions : These results suggest that PH ethanol extract has effects to scavenge free radicals, thus PH has potential and applicable benefits for development of materials and products to have anti-oxidation functions.
