Ginseng saponin was tested for the anticholesterolemic property by a "three-day fasting method". The results indicate that ginseng saponin has not significant anticholesterolemic activity on rabbits. P. Griminger previously offered the postulate that saponin-cholesterol complex formation causes anticolesterolemic effect in chicks. Above results, however, suggests that the postulate is not the whole answer for the anticholesterolemic activity of saponin.f saponin.

The decreased activities of liver enzymes relating to carbohydrate metabolism such as glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and acetyl CoA carboxylase of streptozotocin injected rats were significantly modified by the intraperitoneal injection of ginseng saponin mixture and/or purified ginsenosides. However, several enzymes such as pyruvate kinase, malic enzyme and glycogen phosphorylase were not modified appreciably by the saponin administration, suggesting that the effect of ginseng saponin might be depend upon individual enzymes. Examination of liver enzymes by liver professing technique using perfusion buffer containing saponin (10-3%) showed that the ginseng saponin might stimulate insulin biosynthesis as well as the related enzyme activities.

Saponin isolated from Sapindus mukorossi Gaertn has been shown to contain a strong anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, several pharmacological properties such as acute toxicity, local irritation and hemolytic activity of Sapindus saponin and its genin component, hederagenirl, were examined. The acute toxicity of Sapindus saponin was very low. Estimated from the LD$_{50}$ values, it showed much weaker toxicity in oral administration than in intraperitoneal injection. Hederagenin gave a very high LD$_{50}$ value even in intraperitoneal injection. Sapindus saponin showed a potent local irritation after topical application, whereas hederagenin did a very weak local irritation. Sapindus saponin also gave a high hemolytic activity.

In this study, saponin content of extract from modified preconditioning process was investigated in Saponaria officinalis L. for cosmetic natural surfactant. Saponin content in steamed leaves from S. officinalis L. was about three times more than that in dried leaves (tea saponin and quillaja saponin). And saponin extracts from steamed leaves was excellently shown in both forming force and forming stability. In emulsion activity, saponin extracts from steamed leaves had a similar level to quillaja saponin and tea saponin. Saponin extracts from steamed leaves in S. officinalis L. showed nontoxic effect below in $1,000{\mu}g/mL$ of concentration and dose-dependent inhibition of NO production. From the experiment, the extracts of S. officinalis L. showed good cosmetic agent.

In order to prepare low cholesterol cream by treatment with saponin, the optimal conditions of saponin conc., pH of saponin solution, temperature and amount of celite addition were investigated. The results revealed that the optimal conc. and pH of saponin solution were 5% and 5.5 removing 71.67% and 73.40% of cholesterol, respectively. The temperature of reaction with saponin was best at 60$^{\circ}C$, removing 74.34% of cholesterol in this condition. The addition of celite was more effective than non-addition in the removal of cholesterol from cream. The results of this study indicate that saponin is effective on cholesterol removal from cream.

To elucidate the effect of ginseng saponin on adrenaline-induced hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, ginseng saponin was administered before and after administration of adrenaline, and concentration of glucose, triglyceride(TG), and free fatty acid (FFA) as well as lipase activity in plasma was determined. 1) Glucose concentration was slightly increased by administration of ginseng saponin at 1 hour before and 10 minutes after adrenaline administration, but decreased by administration of ginseng saponin at 7 and 4 hours before adrenaline administration. TG and FFA concentration was also greatly inhibited by administration of ginseng saponin in advance. 2) When gineseng saponin 3, 10, 30mg/kg were administered 7 hours before adrenaline administration, glucose and TG concentration as well as lipase activity were inhibited in proportion to the dose of ginseng saponin, but FFA concentration was slightly inhibited. 3) It was suggested that protopanaxatriol group have potentiating effect on adrenaline induced hyperglycemia but protopanaxadiol group have inhibitory effect. And ginseng saponin seems to have strong inhibitory action on TG mobilization into blood and stimulatory effect on esterification of FFA in liver and adipose tissue.

고양이 말초혈액 탐식세포(단핵구세포(MNC) 및 다형핵백혈구(PMNC))의 탐식능 에 있어서 인삼 saponin(ginseng total saponin(G75), ginseng PT saponin(GPT) 및 ginseng PD saponin(GPD))의 면역증강 효과를 flow cytometry를 이용하여 분석하였다. 인삼 ssponins을 직접 첨가하여 배양한 MNC 및 PMNC에서는 탐식중강 효과가 나타나지 않았다. 각각의 인삼 saponin을 첨가하여 배양한 PMNC 및 MNC 배양상충액의 존재하에 PMNC 및 MNC의 탐식능을 겅토한 결과, MNC의 탐식능은 Gff 첨가 PMNC 배양상충액과 GTS 및 GPT 첨가 MNC 배양상충액의 존재하에서 약간의 탐식증강 효과를 보였다. PMNC 탐식능의 경우에는 GPD 첨가 PMNC 배양상충액에서 미약한 탐식증강 효과가 나타났으나, 각각의 인 삼 saponin 첨가 MNC 배양상충액 존재하에서는 모두 현저한 탐식중강 효과를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로부터 고양이 말초혈액 탐식세포의 탐식증강 효과는 인삼 saponin의 직접적인 작용보다는 인삼 saponin에 의해 활성화된 단핵구세포에서 분비되는 가용성물질에 의해 단 핵구세포보다는 다형핵백혈구에서 현저하게 탐식효과가 증강되는 것으로 판단되었다.

To develop the methodology of the quantitative analysis of saponin in ginseng milk, conditions of the saponin extraction were optimized using the fractional factorial design with 3 variables and 3 levels by a RSM computer program. The extraction of saponin increased with an increase in extraction temperature up to $90^{\circ}C$ and then decreased significantly at $100^{\circ}C$. Extraction time affected the saponin yield in a similar trend. On the other hand, decreasing cooling temperature increased the amount of the saponin extracted. Recovery yield of the saponin from ginseng milk varied from 70.0% to 92.9%. The optimum extraction temperature, time and cooling temperature determined by partial differentiation of the model equation were $86^{\circ}C$, 2.83 hrs and $4^{\circ}C$, respectively. Key words Ginseng milk, saponin, response surface methodology.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of saponin in the shoot of Aralia elata on serum lipid level and glucose in streptozotocin(STZ) induced diabetic rats. Sprague Dawley normal male rats weighing 70$\pm$5g were randomly assigned to normal(control group), crude saponin(S group), and shoot of Aralia elata(D group). Experimental diets have been fed for 6 weeks. STZ induced diabetic rats were classified to diabetic control(DC group) and crude saponin(DS group). Diabetic rats were experimentally induced by intravenous injection of STZ(65mg/kg of body weight) dissolved in citrate buffer(pH 4.5). DS group has been i.p. injected with crude saponin solved in phosphate buffer(pH 7.0, 10mg/100g body weight) and DC group fed for 10 days. Body weight decreased significantly in crude saponin group. Feed intakes and feed efficiency ratio were not significantly different among C, S, and D group. The crude saponin group has indicated the lowest values of serum total cholesterol, glucose, and triglyceride. However, the values of serum glucose and triglyceride were not significant. Insulin levels among the crude saponin group, the shoot powder group, and the control group were not significantly different. When STZ induced diabetic rats have i.p. injection of crude saponin, the crude saponin has reduced the serum glucose but it is not been significant.

본 실험에서는 대식세포에 의한 K562 종양세포의 치사에 미치는 인삼 분획물들의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 실험한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. LPS만을 처리하여 주어 종양세포의 치사 활성을 유도한 대식세포보다도 LPS 와 saponin을 복합처리하여준 대식세포가 K562 종양세포에 대하여 더 높은 종양 치사 활성을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 인삼 분획물 즉, total, diol, triol saponin 모두 같은 양상을 나타내었다. 2. 대식세포없이 배양엑에 인삼 saponin 만을 처리하여 주었을 경우, 인삼 saponin 이 K562 종양세포에 대한 치사작용을 나타내지 않았다. 3. 이러한 결과로 인삼 saponin이 대식세포를 통하여 K562 세포 치사 활성을 증가시킨다는 것을 확인하였다.
