The objective of this study was to evaluate novel usability as natural anti-obesity supplement of Selaginella tamariscina extract. The total phenol contents and total flavonoid contents were $60.29{\pm}3.11GAE\;mg/g$ and $14.90{\pm}0.34QE\;mg/g$, respectively. To evaluate anti-obesity activity of Selaginella tamariscina extract, pancreatic lipase inhibition activity as well as its inhibition effect of lipid accumulation in adipocytes were conducted by Oil Red O staining and lipolysis assay. The result of pancreatic lipase inhibition activity of S. tamariscina extract showed a wide range between 40 and 73% dose dependently. While the incubation of 3T3-L1 cells with S. tamariscina extract inhibited differentiation of preadipocytes and reduced lipid accumulation, the level of released free glycerol into culturing medium was increased in multiple concentrations. These results showed that S. tamariscina extract inhibit adipogenesis and pancreatic lipase activity. Thus, S. tamariscina extract can be a candidate for regulating lipid accumulation in obesity.

Pancreatic lipase digests dietary fats by hydrolysis, which is a key enzyme for lipid absorption. Therefore, reduction of fat absorption by the inhibition of pancreatic lipase is suggested to be a therapeutic strategy for obesity. We previously reported coumarins and secoiridoids of Fraxinus rhynchophylla as inhibitory constituents on adipocyte differentiation. Further investigation on F. rhynchophylla led to the isolation of lignan derivatives such as lignans (1 - 10), sesquilignans (11 - 14) and coumarinolignans (15 - 17). Among them, coumarinolignans and sesquilignans were first reported from Fraxinus species. Among the constituents isolated, sesquilignans showed the significant inhibition on pancreatic lipase, whereas lignans and coumarinolignans exerted weak effects.

A 1, 2-diglyceride-based multi-step colorimetric assay to measure the pancreatic lipase activ-ity was applied for the determination of the kinetic profiles of the lipase inhibition with a slight modification and the validity verification. With this assay method, our study revealed that platy-codin D, one of major constituents of Platycodi Radix, inhibits the pancreatic lipase activity in a competitive type, with the value of $K_1$ being 0.18${\pm}$0.02 mM. In addition, PO has affected the val-ues of $K_{m}$, app/ and $K_{cat}$/$K_{m}$ in a dose-dependent manner. The results shed a meaningful light on how PO mediates lipid metabolism in the intestinal tracts. On the other hand, since the revised assay is sensitive, rapid, and does not affect the accuracy to the kinetic properties, it is applica-ble not only to evaluation of the kinetic properties of the pancreatic lipase, but also to high-throughput screening of pancreatic lipase activity.

On the other hand, since the revised assay is sensitive, rapid, and does not affect the accuracy to the kinetic properties, it is applicable not only to evaluation of the kinetic properties of the pancreatic lipase, but also to highthroughput screening of pancreatic lipase activity.

Obesity, which is characterized by excessive fat accumulation in adipose tissues, occurs by fat absorption by lipase and sequential fat accumulation in adipocyte through adipocyte differentiation. Thus, inhibition of pancreatic lipase activity and adipocyte differentiation would be crucial for the prevention and progression of obesity. In the present study, we attempted to evaluate anti-adipogenic activity of several algae extracts employing preadipocytes cell line, 3T3-L1 as an in vitro assay system. The effects on pancreatic lipase activity in vitro were also evaluated. Total methanolic extracts of Cladophora wrightiana and Costaria costata showed significant inhibitory activity on adipocyte differentiation as assessed by measuring fat accumulation using Oil Red O staining. Related to pancreatic lipase, C. wrightiana and Padina arborescens showed significant inhibition. Further fractionation of C. wrightiana, which showed the most potent activity, suggested that $CHCl_3$ and n-BuOH fraction are responsible for adipocyte differentiation inhibition, whereas n-BuOH and $H_2O$ fraction for pancreatic lipase inhibition. Our study also demonstrated that n-BuOH fraction was effective both in early and middle stage of differentiation whereas $CHCl_3$ fraction was effective only in early stage of differentiation. Taken together, algae might be new candidates in the development of obesity treatment.

제주 동백나무 겨우살이 추출물의 항산화 활성을 DPPH 라디컬 소거능, 철이온 킬레이팅과 환원력 시험을 통해 조사한 결과, 메탄올과 에탄올 추출물이 열수 추출물보다 뛰어난 항산화 효능을 보였다. ${\alpha}$-Glucosidase와 pancreatic lipase 저해능 또한 메탄올과 에탄올 추출물이 우수한 활성을 보였다. 따라서, 제주 동백 나무 겨우살이의 메탄올 및 에탄올 추출물을 건강기능 의약식품 소재로 개발하기 위한 추가 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

신선한 울릉도 민들레 뿌리를 70% ethanol로 침지 추출하여 얻어진 추출물을n-hexane, EtOAc, n-BuOH로 순차용매 분획하였다. 이중 상대적으로 높은 pancreatic lipase 저해활성을 나타낸 EtOAc 분획에 대해 Toyopearl 및 $C_{18}$겔을 활용한 column chromatography를 수행하여 5종의 페놀성 화합물을 분리하였다. 각 화합물의 화학구조는 NMR 스펙트럼 데이터 해석 및 표품과의 HPLC 직접 비교를 통하여 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid, chicoric acid, caffeic acid, protocatechuic aldehyde, luteolin 으로 동정하였다. 이들 화합물중 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid 는 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $65.1\;{\pm}0.7\; {\mu}M$로 가장 강한 효능을 나타내었으며, 다음으로 tartaric acid의 수산기에 2분자의 caffeic acid가 결합한 chicoric acid 의 IC50 값이 $126.3{\pm}2.3{\mu}M$의 저해능을 나타내었다. 민들레 뿌리의 EtOAc 가용부에에 존재하는 caffeic acid 유도체가 pancreatic lipase 저해활성 물질임을 확인하였으며, 이들 활성은 caffeic acid가 결합한 quinic acid 및 tatrtaric acid 등의 구성화합물에 따라 다름이 시사되었다. 향후 이들 활성물질의 활성 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하며 본 연구결과는 보다 우수한 pancreatic lipase 저해능을 가지는 새로운 선도화합물 발굴을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 울릉도에 자생하는 민들레 뿌리의 식물 화학적 성분에 대한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Obesity is the most common nutritional disorder in the developed world and has become a global epidemic in recent years. In this study, Zanthoxylum planispinum extracts (ZPE) were evaluated on the effect on inhibition of pancreatic lipase and lipid metabolism by oral treatment for 2 months in high-fed diet obesity-induced Balb/c mice. The ZPE showed pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity with $IC_{50}$ of $0.3{\mu}g/ml$. No significant difference in feed intake was observed among the groups. The high-fat diet-treated Z. planispinum extracts groups (HFD+ZPE, 100mg/kg) significantly decreased body weight compared to the high-fat diet vehicle groups (HFD, p<0.05). The high-fat diet-treated Xenical$^{(R)}$ groups (HFD+Xenical, n=10, 30mg/kg) also showed a significant reduction of body weight compared to HFD (p<0.05). Biochemical parameters (triglyceride, total cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) in HFD plus ZPE diet groups were significantly lower than those of the HFD groups (p<0.05). These results indicated that ZPE more effectively suppressed the effects of HFD on body fat gain with the inhibitory effect on pancreatic lipase.

To develop functional food and anti-obesity drug through inhibition of dietary lipid absorption, inhibitory effects of herb extracts on pancreatic lipase were investigated. Due to high yield and simplicity of isolation, lipase inhibitor (ELI) was isolated from ethyl acetate extract of Eugenia aromaticum, which showed highest inhibitory activity, and characterized for development of novel functional material. Stability of ELI at high temperature and low pH was investigated. Results showed ELI is relatively stable under thermal and acidic conditions, reversible, and noncompetitive inhibitor of pancreatic lipase.

신선한 생강을 80% EtOH로 침지 추출하여 얻어진 추출물을 $CHCl_3$, EtOAc, n-BuOH로 순차 용매 분획하였고, pancreatic lipase 저해활성, DPPH 및 $ABTS^+$ radical 소거능을 평가하였다. Pancreatic lipase 저해활성을 측정한 결과, EtOAc층의 15.6 ${\mu}g$/mL의 실험 농도에서 에서 대조군인 orlistat보다 강한 $98.0{\pm}0.7%$ 저해능을 확인하였으며, 생강의 주성분으로 잘 알려져 있는 6-gingerol의 경우 같은 농도에서 $16.2{\pm}0.5%$의 상대적으로 낮은 저해능을 나타내었다. DPPH 라칼 소거능은 페놀성 화합물의 함량이 상대적으로 높은 EtOAc층의 125 ${\mu}g$/mL의 농도에서 $56.5{\pm}1.4%$, 62.5 ${\mu}g$/mL의 농도에서 $40.5{\pm}1.2%$의 라디칼 소거능을 확인하였고, 이는 생강의 항산화 활성은 생강 추출물에 존재하는 6-gingerol 등과 같은 페놀성 화합물이 관여함을 시사하였다. 또한 총페놀성 함량이 g당 $82.0{\pm}0.3$ mg으로 나타난 $CHCl_3$층에 대해서도 $ABTS^+$ 라디칼 소거 활성물질의 존재가 시사되었으며, pancreatic lipase, DPPH 및 $ABTS^+$ 라디칼 소거활성물질의 동정을 진행 중에 있으며, 향후 이들 활성물질의 활성 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다. 또한 본 연구결과는 보다 우수한 pancreatic lipase 저해능을 가지는 새로운 선도화합물 발굴을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 국내에 자생하는 생강의 식물 화학적 성분에 대한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
