납중독에 따른 식이내 Se 함량이 간조직의 산화적 손상을 방어할 수 있는 가를 관찰하기 위해 140g 내외의 흰쥐 Sprague-Dawley종 수컷을 정상군과 식이 내에 납 함량을 2,000 ppm 투여한 납투여 실험군으로 나누고 다시 식이내 Se 수준에 따라 0 ppm(Pb0군), 0.5 ppm(PbS군), 1.0 ppm(PbSS군) 식이군으로 나누어 4주간 사육한 후 간장 중 SOD. GSH-Px, GST 등 항산화효소의 활성을 측정하고, GSH 및 비타민 E 함량을 측정하였다. 또한 전자현미경을 통하여 간세포의 소기관을 관찰하였다. 1. 간장 중 SOD는 Pb0군이 다른 군에 비해 다소 높았다. GSH-Px 활성은 Pb0군은 정상군에 비해 현저하게 감소되었으나 PbS군과 PbSS군간은 Pb0군에 비해 증가되었다. GST활성은 Pb0군만 정상군에 비해 감소되었고 PbS, PbSS,군은 정상군 수준이었다. 2. GSH 함량은 정상군에 비해 Pb0군에서 낮았으나 정상군과 PbS. PbSS군은 유의적인 차이가 없었다. GSSG는 GSH와 반대로 Pb0군에서 증가되었으며 GSH/GSSG는 GSH함량과 같은 경향이었다. 또한 간조직 중의 비타민 E함량은 Pb0군은 정상군에 비해 약 50% 정도의 수준이었고 PbSS군과 PbS군은 Pb0군에 비해 증가되었다. 3. 전자현미경적 관찰에서는 RER의 감소, 라이소솜의 증가, 미토콘드리아의 종창 등을 나타내었는데 그 정도는 PbSS, PbS, Pb0군 순으로 심하게 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 식이 중 Se의 다량 첨가는 납중독으로 인한 간조직의 항산화계를 강화시키고 세포 소기관들의 산화적 손상을 현저하게 완화시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

본 연구는 야관문 추출물이 납 투여된 생쥐의 간장과 콩팥에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 시행하였다. 대조군(Nor), 납 단독투여 4주군 (Pb 4W), 납 단독투여 8주군 (Pb 8W), 납-야관문 복합투여 4주군(Pb-LC 4W), 납-야관문 복합투여 8주군(Pb-LC 8W)으로 나누어 구분하였다. 대조군은 1차 증류수를, 납 단독투여군은 lead acetate를 증류수에 1000ppm으로 용해하여 식수로 공급하였다. 납-야관문 복합투여군은 납을 식수로 공급하면서 야관문을 500 mg/kg 농도로 매일 경구투여 하였다. 혈액의 AST, ALT, BUN 효소활성과 간장, 콩팥의 조직학적 실험을 하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. AST, ALT, BUN는 대조군에 비해 실험군 모두 증가하였고, 같은 기간의 납 단독투여군 보다 납-야관문 복합투여군에서 수치가 감소하였다. 조직학적 결과는 간장과 콩팥에서 Pb 4W군은 일부가 변형되었고 Pb 8W군은 대부분에서 괴사와 변형이 일어났고 Pb-LC 4W군과 Pb-LC 8W군은 Pb 4W군과 Pb 8W군 비해 변형이 완화되었다. 같은 기간의 납 단독투여군 보다 납-야관문 복합투여군에서 조직 변화가 완화되었다. 이상의 연구결과로 보아 야관문 추출물이 납 투여한 생쥐의 간장과 콩팥의 손상에 대한 보호 효과가 있다고 사료된다.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of Korean Pueraria radix extract in Pb administered rats. Pb exposed rats were given 1% Pb in the diet. $\delta$-Adminolevulinic acid(DALA) and urinary glucose levels were increased with Pb administration and were lower in the Pb group than in the group administered Pb alone. Hematocrit value was decreased with Pb administration and was higher in the Pb group than in the C-Pb grou. $\delta$-Aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (DALAD) activity was decreased in the Pb group. ALT and AST were increased by Pb added and were lower in the Pb group than in the C-Pb group. Serum Pb content was higher in the Pb exposed rats than in the control groups, and no significant difference was found due to extract of Pueraria radix supplementation. Levels of liver, kidney and femur lead were reduced by Pueraria radix. Lead contents in feces and urine were higher in the Pb added groups than in the control group, and level of feces lead was increased by extract of Pueraria radix.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of mulberry leaf powder supplementation on lead (Pb) status and mineral (Ca, Fe, Cu and Zn) content in Pb-administered rats for 4 weeks. Thirty two male rats were divided into 4 groups: a control, Pb, Pb5M (500 ppm $Pb + 5\%$ mulberry leaf powder), and Pb10M (500 ppm $Pb + 10\%$ mulberry leaf powder). There were no significant differences in food intake and initial body weight among groups. Mulberry leaf powder treatments showed significant decreases in food efficiency ratio and body weight gain. But FER of $Pb5M\%$ and Pb10M were significantly increases than that of Pb group. The levels of serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and creatinine were decreased by mulberry leaf powder treatment. Minerals content of liver and kidney were significantly decreased in the Pb groups than that of control group. Whereas, fecal minerals content were significantly increased in the Pb5M and Pb10M than those of control group. Pb content of serum, liver and kidney was significantly increased in the Pb group than those of control group. However, by mulberry leaf powder administration (Pb5M and Pb10M), Pb level of serum, liver and kidney were lowered than that of Pb group. And fecal Pb excretion was significantly increased in the Pb5M and Pb10M than that of Pb group. These results showed mulberry leaves were effective for lowing Pb accumulation in serum, organs, which may have potential to prevent Pb toxicity.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of dietary Fe and Cu levels on Pb accumulation of Pb poisoned rats. 80 male Sprague weaning Dawley rate weighing 80-90g were divided into 8 groups(Pb groups: LFLCPb-low Fe, low Cu and Pb group, LFACPB-low Fe, adequate Cu and Pb group, AFLCPb-adequate Fe, low Cu and Pb group, AFACPb-adequate Fe, adequate Cu and Pb group, without Pb gorups: LFLC-low Fe, low Cu and without Pb grooup, LFAC-low Fe, adequate Cu and without Pb group, AFLC-adequate Fe, low Cu and without Pb group, AFAC-adequate Fe, adequate Cu and without Pb group) according to Pb administration (0, 500ppm in drinking water) and Fe and Cu levels(Fe :6ppm, 40ppm, Cu : 0.5ppm, 0.8ppm) for 12 weeks. The food intake, body weight, gain, and FER of Pb groups were significantly lower than those of without Pb groups(p<0.01, p<0.001, p<0.001). The weights of liver in Pb groups were significantly lower than that of adequate Fe and Cu group in without Pb group(AFAC) (p<0.001). The Cu contents of liver in Pb groups were significantly lower than that of AFAC (p<0.01). The liver Pb accumulation of LFLCPb was significantly higher than those of LFACPb, AFLCPb, AFACPb(p<0.05). The serum Pb content of LFLCPb was significantly higher than those of LFACPb, AFLCPb, AFACPb(p<0.05). The levels of Hb, and Hct, of 12 weeks in Pb poisoned rats were lower than those of 8 weeks, in other words, long term Pb poisoned rats were affected more serious on hematoopoiesis. The fecal excretions of Fe and Cu in Pb groups were significantly higher than those of without Pb groups(p<0.001, p<0.001). The urinary Fe and Cu excretions were significantly higher than those of AFAC(p<0.001, p<0.001). There were significant differences between Pb groups and without Pb groups according to dietary Fe and Cu levels. So, dietary levels of adequate Fe and Cu were effective to reduce Pb accumulation in rats. It were showed that the decrease of food intake, FER, body weight gain, serum level of Fe and Cu in Pb groups than those of without Pb groups. And the increase of liver Pb accumulation, serum Pb levels, fecal and urinary Fe and Cu excretions were showed in Pb groups than those of without Pb groups by long term lead poisoning. Otherwise, adequate Fe and Cu administrations in Pb groups have preventive effects on the Pb poisoned rats.

This study was performed to see the effects of lead poisoning and dietary protein levels(6, 15 and 40 % casein diets) on growth, protein and lipid metabolisms in growing rats. It was also investigated whether the high protein intake would alleviate lead toxicity by decreasing Pb absorption and/or increasing Pb excretion. The results obtained were summarized as follows ; 1) Weight gain, F.E.R liver weight, weight and length of bone in Pb-administered groups were lower than in Pb-free groups. However, these values in the 40% casein diet group with Pb were increased to the level in 15% casein diet group without Pb. 2) Hematocrt and hemoglobin content in blood were lower in Pb -adminstered groups than in Pb free groups. Especially, these levels were lower in 6% casein diet group with Pb than in any other group. 3) Plasma protein level in th e 40% casein casein diet group was the highest of all groups and those of Pb-administered groups tended to be lower than those of Pb-free groups. Plasma lipid and cholesterol levels were increased with decreasing dietary protein level, and these levels were higher in the animals exposed to Pb than in free groups.4) Total liver protein, lipid and cholesterol contents were increased with increasing dietary protein level, and these contents were lower in Pb-administered groups than in Pb free groups. 5) Fecal Pb excretion was not different between 6 and 40% casein diet groups. However, urinary Pb excretion was higher in the 40% casein diet group than in the 6% casein diet group. Above results suggest that, in exposing to the Pb pollution, sufficient protien intake must be recommended. High protein intake seemed to alleviate lead toxicity by increasing urinary Pb excretion.

This study was performed to investigate nutritional effect of various dietary fibers on lead absorption, and protein and lipid metabolisms in growing rats. Sixty male rats of Sprague-Dawley strain weighing 140$\pm$1.1g were blocked into 10 groups according to body weight and fed 10 kinds of diet different with fiber sources [non-fiber, cellulose, pectin, guar gum or carboxymethylcellulose(CMC)] and lead levels (0 or 1%) for 4 weeks. Results were summerized as follows : 1) Food intake, weight gain, FER and PER were remarkably decreased in lead(Pb)-added groups. Weight gain, FER and PER in Pb-added pectin group were significantly lower than those in Pb-added non-fiber group. 2) Liver and kidney weights, femur weight and length, hematocrit and hemoglobin content were decreased in Pb-added groups. Especially femur and liver weights in pectin groups were the lowest among groups. 3) Total protein content in serum was significantly decreased in Pb-added groups but was not different with dietary fiber sources. Total lipid content in serum was not different with dietary Pb levels and fiber sources, but cholesterol content in serum of guar gum group was significantly decreased by Pb addition. 4) Nitrogen, lipid and cholesteol contents in liver were significantly decreased in Pb-added groups, and lipid content in liver of pectin and CMC groups was lower than other groups. 5) Daily urinary and fecal excretions of nitrogen, kipid and cholesterol were decreased in Pb-added groups, and fecal nitrogen was significantly increased in Pb-added groups, and fecal nitrogen of cellulose and guar gum groups was significantly higher than other groups. Fecal excretions of lipid and cholesterol were increased by dietary fibers, and especially fecal lipid was remarkably increased in pectin and guar hum group. 6) Pb contents in liver and femur were decreased by dietary fibers. Especially Pb contents in liver, kidney and femur were significantly decreased in guar gum group. 7) Daily urinary and fecal excretions of Pb were significantly increased in cellulose and guar gum groups, and fecla excretion of Pb in guar gum group was twice of non-fiber group. Pb absorption ratio was significantly decreased in guar gum group. In conclusion, dietary fibers have effect on protein and lipid metabolisms, and decreased intestinal absorption of Pb by increasing fecal excretion. But the degree of effect was different with dietary fiber sources.

The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of Zn in lead poisoning rats by way of examining interaction mechanism of Pb and Zn. The fifty-five rats were Pb divided into four groups such as Zn group, group, Pb and Zn group, and control group. The rats of Zn group and of Zn and Pb group were subdivided into four groups by dose of Zn respectively 250mg/l, 500mg/l, 1, 000mg/l and 2, 000 mg/l. The rats having been fed the above mentioned chemicals, were weighed every five days for fifty-five days, and the subjects were slaughtered for measuring $\delta$-ALAD activities in blood and the accumulation amount of the chemicals in livers and kidneys. The results of the study are summarized as following 1. As for body weight gains, those of the control group rats were the highest, and those of Pb group the lowest. 2. $\delta$-ALAD activities of Pb group showed the tendency of decrease in comparison with those of control group. In Zn group, the subgroups of 250mg/l and 500mg/l showed higher activities than control group, whereas the subgroups of 1, 000mg/l and 2.000mg/l showed lower. 3. Hb value of Pb group was lower than that of control group. In Zn group, Hb value of the groups of 250mg/l and 500mg/l was a little higher than that of control group, while that of the groups of 1, 000mg/l and 2, 000mg/l was lower. 4. The amount of Pb and Zn accumulated in liver was much higher than in kidney. The amount of Pb accumulated in organs of Zn and Pb group decreased gradually in contrast to high concentration of Zn.

Objectives: The study aims to examine the variation over roughly the past 10 years (from 2008 to 2018) in the estimated daily dietary Pb intake (Pb-D) based on the variations of daily intake amount and Pb content in respective food groups. The following factors were considered: (1) variation of estimated value of Pb-D, (2) Pb contents in each food group and (3) the most influential food group for dietary Pb intake. Methods: Estimated values of Pb-D were taken from food consumption by the food groups reported in the Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey and the Pb content of each food group as reported in 19 previous publications. Variation from 2008 to 2018 of Pb intake was calculated from daily intake amount and Pb content in each food group. Results: The survey showed that main Pb intake sources were the food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish'. These food groups showed gradually increased Pb exposure from 2008 to 2018. Estimated daily Pb intake was 42.18 to 57.68 ㎍/day for men and 30.97 to 42.54 ㎍/day for women. Both men and women showed slightly increased dietary Pb intake from 2008 to 2018. The food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish' proved the highest Pb intake food groups. Estimated Pb intake from 'meats and poultry' was 8.47 to 12.98 ㎍/day and that of 'fish and shellfish' was 5.63 to 10.10 ㎍/day. Conclusion: Over the past ten years, daily Pb intake has slightly increased in men and women. The food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish' might be the main variation factors of Pb intake.
