  • 최근까지 근력 개선 또는 만성 근육 손실을 유발하는 질병을 치료하기 위해 많은 연구가 있어왔지만, 지금까지 근력 개선 유도를 위해 대표적으로 사용되는 약물은 단백질 동화 스테로이드(AAS)계열의 steroidal androgen들이 주로 이용되어 왔다. AAS는 다양한 근육 및 체중 손실성 치료를 목적으로 처방되고 있으나, 장기간 또는 과다한 복용은 피부질환, 생식 및 내분비 기능 저하, 심혈관 질환 등 다양한 부작용을 초래한다고 잘 알려져 있다. 따라서, 상대적으로 부작용이 적은 근육 신생을 촉진하는 천연물을 탐색하는 연구는 매우 중요하다. 현재까지 천연물의 처리로 인한 근육 신생의 촉진은 대표적으로 세가지 기전의 영향을 받으며, 그 기전으로는 근육조절인자(MRF)의 양성 조절, 단백질 합성 기전의 활성화 및 단백질 분해기전의 억제가 있다. 본 리뷰에서는, 근육 신생 촉진 효과가 보고된 Black ginseng, Plum 등과 같은 식물 추출물 및 Creatine, Catechin 및 여러 지방산 등 천연물 유래 단일물질에 대하여 소개하고, 더 나아가 현재까지 알려진 상기의 천연물질들의 처리에 의한 근육 신생 촉진 기전에 대하여 기전별로 요약하고자 한다.

  • Objective: This experiment investigated the effects of supplementing vitamin D3-fortified sow and progeny diets with 25(OH)D3 on growth performance, carcass characteristics, immunity, and pork meat quality. Methods: The present study involved the assessment of supplementing the diet of sows and their progeny with or without 25 (OH)D3 in a 2×2 factorial arrangement on the performance and production characteristics of wean-finish pigs. Forty-eight multiparous sows were assigned to a basal diet containing 2000 IU/kg vitamin D3 and supplemented without (CON) or with (TRT) 50 ㎍/kg 25 (OH)D3. At weaning, a total of 80 pigs each from CON and TRT sows were allocated to weaning and growing-finishing basal diets fortified with 2,500 and 1,750 IU/kg vitamin D3 respectively and supplemented without or with 50 ㎍/kg 25(OH)D3. Results: Sows fed 25(OH)D3-supplemented diets improved pre-weaning growth rate of nursing piglets. A significant sow and pig weaning diet effect was observed for growth rate and feed efficiency (p<0.05) during days 1 to 42 post-weaning. Pigs consuming 25(OH)D3-supplemented diets gained weight faster (p = 0.016), ate more (p = 0.044) and tended to convert feed to gain more efficiently (p = 0.088) than those fed CON diet between days 98 and 140 post-weaning. Supplemental 25(OH)D3 improved water holding capacity and reduced drip loss of pork meat, increased serum 25(OH)D3 level, produced higher interleukin-1 and lower interleukin-6 concentrations in blood circulation, downregulated myostatin (MSTN) and upregulated myogenic differentiation (MYOD) and myogenic factor 5 (MYF5) gene expressions (p<0.05). Conclusion: Supplementing vitamin D3-fortified sow and wean-finish pig diets with 50 ㎍/kg 25(OH)D3 significantly improved production performance suggesting their current dietary vitamin D3 levels are insufficient. In fulfilling the total need for vitamin D, it is strongly recommended to add 50 ㎍/kg 25(OH)D3 "on top" to practical vitamin D3-fortified sow and wean-finish pig diets deployed under commercial conditions.
