Anchovy Engraulis japonica boiled and dried was stored at $20^{\circ}C$ for 5 months after that treatment of sodium-erythorbate (Na-ery) or deoxygenizer (Deoxy). During storage, peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, lipid content, and lipid class compositions were determined to evaluate the quality of the samples. pay was decreased rapidly for the first 3 months storage and its decrease was Deoxy group>Control group>Na-ery group in that order. TBA values increased for the first 4 months and then decreased rapidly, and it's increase was the highest in Control group, followed by Na-ery and Deoxy group. Total lipid contents in all samples declined during storage. Especially, phospholipid decreased mainly in Na- ery and Deoxy group, while neutral lipid mainly in Control group. Triglyceride (TG), phosphatidylethanolamine(PE), and phosphatidylcholine(PC) decreased, while free fatty acid (FFA) and lyso-PC (LPC) increased during storage. The decrease of TG was the highest in Control group and that of PE and PC was higher in Na-ery group than in other sample. The decrease of PE in all samples (except Deoxy group) was higher than that of pc. The increase of FFA and LPC were higher in Control and Na-ery group than in Deoxy group. These results indicated that the lipid deterioration of the boiled and dried-anchovy was effectively suppressed by the enclosed deoxygenizer during storage at $20^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the food habits and the dietary intake of female college students at day and night class in the Kyunggido area. The questionnaires were collected from 294 students(151 day class and 143 night class students) out of 350 in total. The results are as follows: Breakfast for day class students and breakfast and dinner of night class students were skipped more than 3 times a week. The main reason was short of time. In the behavior of food intake, the frequency of yellow-green vegetables, milk and seaweeds intake was low in all respondents. 18.4% of night class students ate out 3 times a day. In the kind of menu for eating out, Korean food was the most frequent. snack food the second, and fast food came last. 23.9% of students ate something 2 or 3 times a day between meals. The main reason for eating between meals was the desire to eat for day class students, and hunger for the night time students. Consumption of coffee was 0.76 cup a day Daily mean of calory intake was 1.394 kcal and the ratio of carbohydrate. protein lipid was 61:14:25. The intakes of iron and niacin of the day class students were higher than those of night class students. There was no significant difference in intake of other nutrients between day and night class students. Intake of calcium and iron did not reach 50% of Korean RDA.

Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) are widely distributed in the plant kingdom, but their functions remain elusive. The proteins AlLTP2-4 were isolated from three related Allium plants: garlic (A. sativum L.), Welsh onion (A. fistulosum L.), and Nanking shallot (A. ascalonicum L.). These novel proteins comprise a new class of LTPs associated with the Ace-AMP1 from onion (A. cepa L.). The AlLTP genes encode proteins harboring 132 common amino acids and also share a high level of sequence identity. Protein characteristics and phylogenetic analysis suggest that LTPs could be classified into five distinct groups. The AlLTPs were clustered into the most distantly related plant LTP subfamily and appeared to be restricted to the Allium species. In particular, the number of amino acids existing between the fourth and fifth Cys residue was suggested as a conserved motif facilitating the categorization of all the LTP-related proteins in the family. Unlike other LTPs, AlLTPs harboring both the putative C-terminal propeptide and N-terminal signal peptide were predicted to be localized to cytoplasmic vacuoles. When a chimeric GFP protein fused with both N-terminal and C-terminal AlLTP2 signal peptides was expressed in rice cells, the fluorescence signal was detected in the endomembrane compartments, thereby confirming that AlLTPs are an unprecedented intracellular type of LTP. Collectively, our present data demonstrate that AlLTPs are a novel type of LTP associated with the Allium species.

A method of ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) was established for characterization of the lipid profile of Skipjack tuna. Over 300 lipid molecular species were identified through cross-acquisition in both positive and negative ion mode. Phospholipids (PLs) were dominant in Skipjack tuna. Lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) were the main lipid molecular species in PLs, accounting for 89.24% of the total PLs. The ratio of sphingolipids (SLs) and glycerolipids (GLs) were considerable, accounting for 12.30% and 13.60% of the total lipids respectively. Ceramide (Cer) was the main lipid molecular species of SLs, accounting for 64.96% of total SLs, followed by sphingomyelin (SM), accounting for 25.45% of total SLs. Ether diglycerides (ether DG) were the main lipid molecular species of GLs (97.83%). The main fatty acids (FAs) are unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) in Skipjack tuna. Besides, a new FAs class branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA) was detected, together with the FA. The active lipids identified in this study can be used to evaluate the nutritional value of Skipjack tuna.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of dried powders and water extracts of Paecilomyces tenuipes(P. tenuipes) and Cordyceps militaris(C. militaris) on lipid metabolism, lipid peroxidation and antioxidative capacity and immune status in rats. Thirty-five male Sprague-Dawley rats weighting 195$\pm$21g were grouped into five according to body weight. Ratw were raised for four weeks with diet containing either 4%, 2%(w/w) of dried P. tenuipes powders(TP-4, TP-2) or water extracts from equal amounts of each 4% P. tenuipes and C. militaris powder(TE-4, ME-4). Food intake, weight gain of all groups were not significantly different from those of control group. Lipid metabolism in general was not significantly different among all the groups. However both dried P. tenuipes powder lowered plasma cholesterol level slightly, water extract groups showed tendency of higher plasma HDL-cholesterol and lower liver cholesterol levels than control. Plasma and liver thiobarbituric acid reactive substance(TBARS) concentrations of all the experimental groups were lower than control group. Red blood cell(RBC) and liver superoxide dismutase(SOD) activities were not generally different among all groups. Liver xanthine oxidase(XOD) activities of all groups were tended to be lower than control group. Proliferation of aplenocytes induced by mitogens, concanavalin A and lipopolysaccharide, were increased in TP-2 group. The TP-4 group showed increased CD8 T cells and MHC class II expression without changes in CD4 T cells, B cells and G/M ratio, suggesting activated cytotoxic T cell activity in vivo. Increase of G/M ratio but not of MHC class II in TP-2 group indicated the possible acute inflammatory reaction by the ingested substances in gastrointestinal tract. ME-4 group showed enhanced cellular immunity without vigorous changes of immune parameters in brief periods. In conclusion, both P. tenuipes and C. militaris stimulated antioxidant capacity and immune status in rats. Among groups, water extract of C. militaris was most effective in both capacities, though dried powder of P. tenuipes at 2% dietary level was more effective in antioxidant activity, as various results by different strains were observed.(Korean J Nutrition 34(3) : 271~284, 2001)

Lipid classes and fatty acid compositions of eight species of wild and cultured seawater fish in Korea were investigated. Total lipid (TL) contents of wild and cultured fish were $2.64\pm1.88\%$ and $5.42\pm1.76\%$, respectively, except for rockfish and striped beakperch. Non-polar lipids (NL) in all fish samples comprised approximately $84\%$ of the TL content. The proportion equation of NL content to TL content was y=0.9296x-0.4468 $(R^2=0.98l2, p<0.001)$. The most abundant NL class was triglyceride. The prominent fatty acids in all fish samples were 16: 0, 18: 1(n-9), 22 : 6(n-3) (docosahexaenoic acid, DHA), 16: 1(n-7), 20 : 5 (n-3) (eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA), 18 : 0 and 18 : 1(n-7). The polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) group was the richest among the total fatty acids (TFA). DHA and EPA were comprised of approximately $85\%$ of n-3 PUFA. There was a positive correlation between TFA content and n-3 PUFA content; y=0.292x-0.0055 $(R^2=0.9349, p<0.001)$. The n-3 PUFA content of the cultured fish was approximately twice as much as that of the wild fish. Therefore, cultured fish were proven to provide better sources of n-3 PUFA if compared to wild fish.

Elevated blood glucose is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis. Data from the current study showed that glucosamine (GlcN), a normal glucose metabolite of the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP), promoted lipid accumulation in RAW264.7 macrophage cells. Oleic acid- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lipid accumulation was further enhanced by GlcN in RAW264.7 cells, although there was no a significant change in the rate of fatty acid uptake. GlcN increased acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC), fatty acid synthase (FAS), scavenger receptor class A, liver X receptor, and sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) mRNA expression, and; conversely, suppressed ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA-1) and ABCG-1 expression. Additionally, GlcN promoted O-GlcNAcylation of nuclear SREBP-1 but did not affect its DNA binding activity. GlcN stimulated phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and S6 kinase. Rapamycin, a mTOR-specific inhibitor, suppressed GlcN-induced lipid accumulation in RAW264.7 cells. The GlcN-mediated increase in ACC and FAS mRNA was suppressed, while the decrease in ABCA-1 and ABCG-1 by GlcN was not significantly altered by rapamycin. Together, our results highlight the importance of the mTOR signaling pathway in GlcN-induced macrophage lipid accumulation and further support a potential link between mTOR and HBP signaling in lipogenesis.

The major cuticular components have been shown to be synthesized in the epidermis. Therefore, cloning of epidermis-specific genes could yield information to be used to isolate and characterize the enzymes involved in the cuticle biosynthesis. A subtractive cDNA library was prepared from Senecio odorus in which epidermis-specific cDNAs were enriched. Differential screening of the library using epidermal and non-epidermal probes revealed two cDNAs. One of them designated epi425 was identified, based on the sequence homology, as a member of a new class in the LTP gene family and the other clone designated epi23 as a gene encoding an aldehyde decarbonylase. Northern blot analyses showed that epi425 and epi23 cDNAs hybridized with a transcript of about 600 and 2, 100 nucleotides, respectively, from the epidermis but not from the non-epidermal tissues. Further characterization of these clones will provide more information on the mechanism of the cuticle biosynthesis.

한국 남해 연근해에서 어획된 12종의 주요 어류 (표$\cdot$중층회유어 5종; 멸치, 숭어, 전어, 방어, 고등어: 연안암초어 3종:조피볼낙, 참돔, 감성돔: 저서어 4종: 도다리, 붕장어, 넙치, 말쥐치)를 대상으로 하여 그들의 지질 및 총지방산 조성비의 계절변화를 검토하였다. NL의 주요 조성은 TG 및 ST이었으며, TG조성비는 TL함량과 로그함수로 정의 상관관계 (r=0.91, p<0.001)를 나타내었다. PL의 주요 조성은 PC와 PE였으며, 양자의 조성비는 TL 함량이 적은 어종에서 높은 경향을 나타냈다. 시험된 어류의 주요지방산은 16:0($19.5\pm1.99\%$), DHA($16.6\pm7.46\%$), 18:1 (n-9) ($15.8\pm8.39\%$), EPA ($8.46\pm3.70\%$), 16:1 (n-7) ($7.06\pm3.08\%$), 14:0 ($3.80\pm2.15\%$) 등이었다. 이들 주요 지방산중 MUFA인 18:1 (n-9)와 16:1 (n-7)의 조성비의 변화는 TL 함량 변화와 비례하였으나, PUFA인 DHA와 EPA의 조성비의 변화는 TL 함량 변화와 역비례하였다. 한편 이들 MUFA와 PUFA 조성비와의 변화 사이에는 로그함수로 역의 상관관계 (r=-0.87, p<0.001)를 나타냈다. 그러나 SFA(16: 0)의 조성비는 계절에 따른 지질함량 변동의 영향을 거의 받지 않았다. 또한 EPA 및 DHA의 함량은 지질함량과 정의 상관관계(r=0.95, p<0.001)를 보였다.

아라키돈산(AA)은 포유동물에 식품을 통해 섭취되는 필수지방산으로써 동물조직에서 추출되어 이용되어 왔다. 경제적으로 AA를 생산하기 위하여 토양으로부터 AA를 다량으로 생산하는 모르티에렐라 종으로 확인된 M-12균주를 선발하였다. 균체로부터 지방질과 AA를 효율적으로 추출하기 위하여 전처리 공정, 공정 순서, 추출 용매, 추출 방식, 입자 크기 등을 달리하여 추출 효율을 분석하였다. M-12를 GY배지로 $25^{\circ}C$에서 7일 배양하여 동결건조한 시료를 사용하였을 때 지질방 중 47% 이상의 AA를 함유하고 있었다. 지방질 추출 효율은 균체의 젖은 상태와 건조 상태로 나눈 전처리 공정에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 클로로폼과 메탄올(2:1) 용액을 추출 용매로 사용하였을 때 가장 높은 추출율을 보였으며 헥세인이나 아이소헥세인도 우수한 추출 효율을 나타내었다. 균체를 분쇄하기 위하여 blending, ultrasonication, Ultra-turrex homogenization 등 기계적 분쇄방법을 사용하였으나 추출 효율은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 균체 입자가 고울수록 유지의 추출 효율은 높게 나타났고 추출 시간보다는 추출 시 입자 크기가 추출 효율에 더 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 추출된 유지를 분획하여 지방산 조성을 분석한 결과 neutral lipids 내에 AA의 함량이 65.3-68.9%로 가장 높게 나타났다.
