이물질(xenobiotics) 대사에 관여하는 간장 microsome과 cytosol 효소 활성에 indole, indole-3-carbinol 및 benzofuran이 미치는 영향을 검색하기위하여 마우스에 이들 약물을 각각 5 mmole/kg씩 10일간 투여하여 다음 몇 가지의 성적을 얻었다. Benzofuran은 microsome 효소인 aniline hydroxylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, p-nitrophenol UDPGA-transferase, epoxide hydrolase와 cytosol 효소인 glutathione S-tranferase, NADH : quinone reductase, UDP-glucose dehydrogenase의 활성도를 증가시켰다. 그러나 benzofuran과는 구조적으로 furan ring내의 N원소가 O원소로 치환되었을 뿐 주된 구조가 유사한 indole과 indole-3-carbinol 투여로는 UDPGA-transferase와 NADH: quinone reductase의 활성도 증가를 볼 수 없었으며, 특히 indole은 NADPH : cytochrome C reductase만을 증가시킨데 비하여 구조상 indole에 carbinol (methanol)기가 붙은 indole-3-carbinol은 수종의 mixed function oxidase와 아울러 특히 epoxide hydrolase의 활성도 역시 증가시켰다. 이러한 결과는 benzofuran과 indole-3-carbinol에 의한 epoxide hydrolase 활성도 증가의 기전의 일부를 설명할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives : This study was designed to investigate anti-obesity effects of DF in a ob/ob mouse model. Methods : Fifteen-week-old ob/ob mice were divided into four groups: a normal lean group given a standard diet, an ob/ob control group given a standard diet, and DF(1) and DF(2) groups given a standard diet with DF(1) (300 mg/kg), and DF(2) (600 mg/kg), respectively. After 10 weeks of treatment, body weight gain, feeding efficiency ratio, blood lipid markers, fat weight and histology were examined. Results : Body weight gain and fat mass were significantly decreased in DF(1) and DF(2) groups compared with control. The extent of decreases was eminent in DF(2) group. Feeding efficiency ratio were significantly decreased in DF(2) group compared with control. Consistent with their effects on body weight gain and fat mass, circulating concentrations of LDL, total cholesterol, free fatty acid, and insulin were decreased in DF(2) group compared with control. The size of adipocytes were significantly decreased by DF(2) compared with control. Consistent with their effects on body weight gain, hepatic lipid accumulation and liver weights were reduced in DF compared with control. Conclusions : In conclusion, these results suggest that DF not only decrease feeding efficiency ratio, and blood anti-obesity biomarkers, but also reduce fat mass, contributing to the improvement of obesity. DF also inhibits hepatic lipid accumulation.

TIAF1 is a TGF-${\beta}$1-induced anti-apoptotic factor that plays a critical role in blocking TNF (tumor necrosis factor) cytotoxicity in mouse fibroblasts and participates in TGF-${\beta}$-mediated growth regulation. In this study, we obtained the full-length cDNA sequence of the porcine TIAF1 gene. Real-time PCR further revealed that the TIAF1 gene was expressed at the highest level in liver and kidney with prominent expressions detected in uterus, and lower levels detected in heart, spleen, lung, stomach, small intestine, skeletal muscle and fat of Large White pigs. Sequence analysis indicated that a 6 base-pair deletion mutation existed in the exon of the TIAF1 gene between Meishan and Large White pigs. This mutation induced deletion of Gln and Val amino acids. PCR-RFLP was used to detect the polymorphism in 394 pigs of a "Large White${\times}$Meishan" $F_{2}$ resource population and four purebred pig populations. The frequencies of the A allele (with a 6 bp deletion) were dominant in Chinese Meishan and Bamei pigs, and the frequencies of the B allele (no 6 bp deletion) were dominant in Large White and Landrace pigs. Association analyses revealed that the deletion mutation had highly significant associations (p<0.01) with meat marbling score of the thorax-waist longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle (MM1) and intramuscular fat percentage (IMF), and significant associations (p<0.05) with carcass length (CL). The results presented here supply evidence that the 6 bp deletion mutation in the TIAF1 gene affects porcine meat quality and provides useful information for further porcine breeding.

The chemical formula of indapamide is 3-(aminosulfonyl)-4-chloro-N-(2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-1H-indol-l-yl)-benzamide, Indapamide is an oral antipertensive diuretic agent indicated for the treatment of hypertensive and edema. Indapamide inhibits carbonic anhydrase enzyme. Transdermal drug delivery systems, as compared to their corresponding classical oral or injectable dosage form counterparts, offer many advantages. The most important advantages are improved systemic bioavailability of the pharmaceutical active ingredients (PAI), because the first-pass metabolism by the liver and digestive system are avoided; and the controlled, constant drug delivery profile (that is, controlled zero-order absorption). Also of importance is the reduced dose frequency compared to the conventional oral dosage forms (that is, once-a-day, twice-a-week or once-a-week). Other benefits include longer duration of therapeutic action from a single application, and reversible action. For example, patches can be removed to reverse any adverse effects that may be caused by overdosing. In order to evaluate the effects of vehicles and penetration enhancers on skin permeation of Indapamide, the skin permeation rates of Indapamide from vehicles of different composition were determined using Franz cells fitted with excised hairless skins. Solubility of Indapamide in various solvents was investigated to select a vehicle suitable for the percutaneous absorption of Indapamide, The solvents used were Tween80, Tween20, Labrasol, Lauroglycol90 (LG90) and Peceol. Lauroglycol90 increase the permeability of indapamide approximately 3.75-fold compared with the control. Tween80, Tween20, Labrasol, Lauroglycol90 (LG90) and Peceol showed flux of $0.06ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.4ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.21ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.72ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.29ug/cm^2/hr$, respectively.

Sodium butyrate (SB) has various metabolic actions. However, its effect on dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) needs to be studied further. We aimed to evaluate the metabolic actions of SB, considering its physiologically relevant concentration. We evaluated the effect of SB on regulation of DPP-4 and its other metabolic actions, both in vitro (HepG2 cells and mouse mesangial cells) and in vivo (high fat diet [HFD]-induced obese mice). Ten-week HFD-induced obese C57BL/6J mice were subjected to SB treatment by adding SB to HFD which was maintained for an additional 16 weeks. In HepG2 cells, SB suppressed DPP-4 activity and expression at sub-molar concentrations, whereas it increased DPP-4 activity at a concentration of $1,000{\mu}M$. In HFD-induced obese mice, SB decreased blood glucose, serum levels of insulin and $IL-1{\beta}$, and DPP-4 activity, and suppressed the increase in body weight. On the contrary, various tissues including liver, kidney, and peripheral blood cells showed variable responses of DPP-4 to SB. Especially in the kidney, although DPP-4 activity was decreased by SB in HFD-induced obese mice, it caused an increase in mRNA expression of $TNF-{\alpha}$, IL-6, and $IL-1{\beta}$. The pro-inflammatory actions of SB in the kidney of HFD-induced obese mice were recapitulated by cultured mesangial cell experiments, in which SB stimulated the secretion of several cytokines from cells. Our results showed that SB has differential actions according to its treatment dose and the type of cells and tissues. Thus, further studies are required to evaluate its therapeutic relevance in metabolic diseases including diabetes and obesity.

예로부터 다양한 방면에서 약용식물로 널리 사용되어 온 감초에서 분리한 dehydroglyasperin C (DGC)는 이전의 연구에서 세포 모델계에서 비교적 높은 항산화 능력과 2상 해독효소계 활성을 유도하는 것이 확인되었으나, 동물 모델계에서 DGC의 항산화능과 2상 해독효소계를 평가하였을 때, 유의적 결과가 관찰되지 않았다. 따라서 DGC 처리시간에 따라 마우스의 장기 및 혈장에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보고자 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 시간 동안 DGC를 처리한 후, 장기별 QR 유도활성과 간과 신장에서의 단백질 발현 패턴, 혈장의 항산화능력을 측정하였다. 그 결과 DGC 처리에 의한 QR 유도활성은 위, 대장에서 시간에 따라 변화하는 경향을 보였고, 간, 신장, 소장, 폐에서는 큰 경향성이 나타나지 않았으며, 2상 해독효소의 단백질 발현 패턴은 간에서는 역시 큰 경향성이 나타나지 않았고 위에서는 QR 유도활성과 유사한 경향이 나타남을 확인하였다. 혈장의 DGC 처리 시간에 따른 항산화활성은 시간에 따라 유의적으로 값이 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론적으로 DGC는 처리 시간에 따라 각 장기 및 혈장에 각기 다르게 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료되며, 앞으로도 추가적인 연구를 통하여 DGC의 효능을 보다 구체적으로 검증하는 것이 필요한 것으로 생각된다.
