This study is to investigate the effects of capsaicin with high-fat diet on tissue glycogen contents in exercise-trained rats. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were offered a high-fat diet for 2 wks in individual cages and were exercise-trained by a animal treadmill running throughout the experimental period. After 2 wks of the prefeeding with high-fat diet, the rats were divided into two group: high-fat diet group(CON)and high-fat diet + capsaicin(0.014%) group(CAP). The rats were killed by decapitation at 10 hr(rest), 1 hr and 2 hr after treadmill running(27m/min, 6$^{\circ}$). Body weight and epididymal adipose tissure weight were significantly lower in CAP than in CON, but soleus muscle weight was not different between the two groups. Glycogen contents in liver, soleus and gastrocnemius white muscles were significantly lower in CAP than in CON at rest, 1 hr and 2 hr (p<0.05). However, glycogen content in gastrocnemius red muscle was significantly higher in CAP compared with CON at 2 hr after the exercise(p<0.05). These results indicate that capsaicin intake with high-fat diet would decrease glycogen contents in liver and muscle, however, this effect on glycogen metabolism could be changed by muscle type.

We found previously that dietary high fat caused obesity, and levan supplementation to the regular diet reduced adiposity and serum lipids. In the present study, we examined the effects of levan [high-molecular-mass $\beta$-(2,6)-linked fructose polymer] supplement on the development of obesity and lipid metabolism in rats fed with high-fat diet. Thus, to determine whether the dietary levan may have the anti-obesity and hypolipidemic effects, 4-wk-old Sprague Dawley male rats were fed with high-fat diet for 6 wk to induce obesity, and subsequently fed with 0, 1, 5, or 10% levan supplemented high-fat diets (w/w) for another 4 wk. For the comparison, a normal control group was fed with AIN-76A diet. Supplementation with levan resulted in a significant reduction of high-fat-induced body weight gain, white fat (i.e., epididymal, visceral, and peritoneal fat) development, adipocyte hypertrophy, and the development of hyperinsulinemia and hyperlipidemia in a dose-dependent manner. Serum triglyceride and free fatty acid levels were greatly reduced by levan supplementation. Serum total cholesterol level was reduced, whereas the HDL cholesterol level was increased by dietary levan. The expression of uncoupling protein (UCP) was increased by dietary high fat, and was further induced by levan supplementation. The mRNA level of UCP1, 2, and 3 in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and UCP3 in skeletal muscle was upregulated in rats fed with dietary levan. In conclusion, upregulated UCP mRNA expression may contribute to suppression of development of obesity through increased energy expenditure. The present results suggest that levan supplementation to the diet is beneficial in suppressing diet-induced obesity and hyperlipidemia.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Astragali Radix on the diet-induced hyperlipidemia in rats. Hyperlipedemia was induced in rats with high fat diet. Rats were divided into 4 groups, normal group(supplied enough water and feeds only), high fat diet administered group(supplied high fat diet for 4 weeks, Control group) and Astragali Radix administered group(supplied high fat diet and Astragali Radix lyophilization extract for 4 weeks, 178.6 mg/kg(rat) in sample A, 297.8 mg/kg(rat) in sample B). Body weight, liver weight and serum lipid levels were evaluated. The water extract of Astragali Radix decreased body weight, liver weight, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride and phospolipid in high fat diet induced hyperlipidemia in rats, and increased HDL-cholesterol.

male female 80 마리의 흰쥐를 저지방식, 고지방식, 무지방식, 표준식이를 주어 16주간 동안 사육한 결과는 다음과 같다. 동물의 체중증가율 질소의 이용율, 간과 serum 내의 성분의 변화를 분석 시험한 결과를 요약하연 다음과 같다 지방의 식이내 함량에 따라서 체내 질소 대사에 미치는 영향으로 총 질소 보유율과 serum 내의 총단백질 albumin, globulin 의 함량, 각 장기 내의 질소 함유량들을 보았으나 대체적으로 현저한 변화를 가져오지 않는 것으로 본다. 그러나 각 장기에 있어서 총 질소 함유량을 보면 liver 와 spleen 이 식이 성분에 대해서 예민한 반응을 보였으며, brain 이 가장 적은 변화를 나타내었다. 한편 serum 내 glucose함량에는 식이 함유된 지방 함량에 따라서 큰 변화를 나타내지는 않았다. 각 군간의 유의적인 차이는 산발적으로 나타났지만 저지방군과 표준군을 male female에서 비교해 보면 다 같이 유의적인 차이를 나타내지는 않았다 . 이로 미루어 보면 2% 저지방군이 serum 내의 glucsoe 양에는 영향을 크게 미치지는 않는다고 볼 수 있다. serum 내 lipid 와 cholesterol 의 함량은 식이내 함유된 지방량에 따라서 현저한 차이를 나타냈다. 고지방군인 30% 지방 첨가로 serum 내의 lipid 와 cholesterol 의 함량이 증가되었으며 저지방군인 2% 의 식이내 지방 첨가는 표준군과 큰 차이를 나타내지 않는 것으로 보아 2%의 저지방군이 지방질 체내 축척에 있어서는 유리하다고 볼 수 있다 . 한국 영양 섭취 실정으로 미루어 보면 지방의 섭취량을 우선 일정량으로 올리는 것이 중요한 일이라고 보는데 본 실험의 결과에 따르면 식사내 2% 지방 첨가가 표준군과 모든 면에서 유사하였다. 반면 대부분의 구미 각국에서는 총열량에 대한 지방량의 비율이 $30{\sim}40%^{7)}$로서 상당히 많은 량의 지방을 섭취하고 있으나, 이들 각국은 지방 섭취량을 저하시키는 경향이므로 지방 섭취량의 대한 권장을 고려해야 할 필요가 있는 것으로 본다.

Fifty mid-lactation Holstein cows were used in a six-week feeding trial to study effects of high-forage, high-fat diets on dry matter intake and production performance. Cows were divided into 10 replicates, each consisting of five cows. Each cow was assigned to a control (diet 1) or one of the four experimental diets (high-forage (75%), high-fat (7.5%) (diet 2); high-forage, medium-fat (5%) (diet 3); medium forage (65%), high-fat (diet 4); medium-forage, medium-fat (diet 5)), or a control diet containing about 50% forage and 2% fat. All diets were isonitrogenous (17.7% crude protein). The forage mixture consisted of 20% alfalfa hay, 40% alfalfa haylage, and 40% com silage. Supplemental fat included 80% rumen-protected fat and 20% yellow grease. Dry matter intake was decreased (p<0.01) in cows fed experimental diets (18.4, 20.9, 19.9, and 22.6 kg for cows fed diets 1-4, respectively vs. 27.5 kg for cows fed the control diet). Daily milk production was lower (p<0.05) for cows consuming experimental diets (30.5, 31.3, 31.0, and 32.5 kg for cows fed greater for cows consuming experimental diets (1.74, 1.55, 1.60, and 1.53 kg milk/kg dry matter intake for cows fed diets 1-4, respectively, vs. 1.26 kg milk/kg dry matter intake for cows fed the control diet).

본 연구에서는 일반식이로의 식이 제한이 고지방식이로 촉진된 유방암의 성장과 전이에 미치는 영향과 그 기전을 알아보았다. 8주간 고지방식이를 섭취시킨 후 유방암을 유방 조직에 이식하거나 꼬리 정맥으로 통해 전이시켰으며, 암 생성 및 전이 후 HFC군은 고지방식이를, DR군은 일반식이로 전환시켜 사육하였다. 본 연구 결과, 원발성 유방암의 경우, HFC군과 DR군의 체중에는 차이가 없었으나 간과 비장, 신장 주변의 지방세포의 무게에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. DR군이 HFC군에 비해 유방암의 개시를 지연시켰으며, 유방암의 성장과 무게를 유의하게 감소시켰다. 일반식이로의 전환에 의한 유방암 성장 억제는 세포 분열 억제와 세포사멸을 조절하는 인자의 발현 감소에 의한 caspase-3의 활성 촉진에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 식이 제한은 폐로 전이된 유방암의 수를 유의미하게 감소시켰다. 본 실험 결과, 일반식이로의 제한은 고지방식이로 촉진된 유방암의 성장과 전이를 억제하는 효과를 나타내며, 이는 유방암 세포의 성장 억제와 사멸 유도에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 유방암의 성장이나전이를 억제하기 위해서는 총 섭취 열량을 조절하고, 지방의 섭취량을 줄이는 균형 잡힌 식이를 섭취하도록 해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The effect of lycopene supplementation on the antioxidant system was investigated by analyzing lipid peroxide levels, glutathione contents, and antioxidant enzyme activities in Mongolian gerbils fed a high fat diet. Gerbils were fed on each experimental diet for 6 weeks; normal diet (NC), normal diet with 0.05% lycopene (NL), high fat diet (HF), and a high fat diet with 0.05% lycopene (HFL). Dietary supplementation of lycopene increased hepatic lycopene level in gerbils fed a normal or high fat diet (P < 0.05). Liver and erythrocyte concentrations of lipid peroxide increased in gerbils fed a high fat diet, whereas lycopene supplementation decreased liver and erythrocyte concentrations of lipid peroxide (P < 0.05). Hepatic total glutathione content was higher in the NL group than that in the NC group (P < 0.05). Total antioxidant status in plasma increased following lycopene supplementation compared with that of the non-lycopene supplemented groups (P < 0.05). Hepatic catalase activity increased following dietary lycopene supplementation (P < 0.05). Superoxide dismutase activity in liver remained unchanged with lycopene supplementation, but erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity increased in NL group compared with NC group (P < 0.05). Glutathione-S-transferase activity increased in the NL group compared to NC group (P < 0.05). Liver and erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase activity increased significantly in the NL group compared to that in the HF group (P < 0.05). Liver glutathione reductase activity was higher in the NL group than that in the NC group (P < 0.05). These results suggest that lycopene supplementation may be efficient for preventing chronic diseases induced by oxidative stress related to high fat diet.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Meristotheca papulosa on lipid concentration of serum and liver in rats fed high fat diet for 4 weeks. Experimental groups ere divided into normal group (5% corn oil), high fat diet group (5% corn oil+20% lard), high fat diet and 5% or 10% Meristotheca papulosa treated group. The weights of kidney, heart and tests were not significantly different among the group, but weight of liver was significantly decreased by supplement of Meristotheca papulosa (10%). The contents of serum total lipid, trigly-ceride, total cholesterol, free cholesterol, cholesterol ester and atherogenic index were decreased, while HDL-cholesterol was increased by Meristotheca papulosa supplementation compared to high fat diet group. Meristotheca papulosa supplement has obvious effects on lowering hepatic total lipid, triglyceride and total cholesterol. Our findings suggest that Meristotheca papulosa supplement can improve lipid metabolism in high fat fed rats.

Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the inhibitory effects of Bangpungtongsungsan extract (BTS) on fat accumulation in high-fat diet-induced young obese mice. Methods The extract was administered to 3-week-old C57BL/6 male mice fed with a high-fat diet. The experimental groups were divided into a control group (Ctrl), high-fat diet group (HFDF), and BTS treated group after high fat diet feeding (BTST), with 10 mice assigned to each group. Lipid synthesis was observed to confirm the inhibition of fat synthesis. Changes in body weight, body fat percentage, and total cholesterol in the blood were observed to confirm weight control. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP)-1 positivity was observed to confirm the inhibition of fat accumulation in liver tissue. Results Bangpungtongsungsan significantly inhibited lipid synthesis. Changes in body weight, body fat percentage, and total cholesterol in the blood were significantly lower in BTST rats than in HFDF rats. PPAR-γ and SREBP-1 positivity were significantly lower in BTST rats compared to HFDF rats. Conclusions This study confirms the potential of BTST to inhibit fat accumulation in obesity.
