This study was carried out to investigate the effect of muscle part and aging period on free amino acids and aroma compounds of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) cow beef. The M. longissimus (ML) and M. semitendinosus (MS) from 101 mon-old-cows were aged at 2℃ for 14 d. The free amino acids concentration increased in both ML and MS on 14 d of aging. In ML, asparagine, glutamine, histidine, glycine, threonine, arginine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, isoleucine, leucine and lysine were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those in MS. Varieties of aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, hydrocarbons, nitrogen and sulfur compounds were detected in both ML and MS and majority of these compounds showed increasing trend on aging. The ML had higher 14 aldehydes (acetaldehyde, 2-methylpropanal, 3-methylbutanal, 2- methylbutanal, pentanal, hexanal, heptanal, E-2-heptanal, octanal, 2-octenal, 2-nonenal, E-2-decenal, E,E-2,4-decadienal and 2-undecenal), 5 ketones (2-propanone, 2,3-butanedione, 2-butanone, 2-heptanone and 2,3-octanedione), 4 alcohols (ethanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol and 1-octanol), 3 hydrocarbons (3-ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-hexadiene, 3- methyldecane and 2,2-dimethyloctane) significantly (p<0.05) compared with MS. However, the MS had higher 5 nitrogen and sulfur compounds (methanethiol, dimethyldisulfide, fufural, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine and 2-octylfuran) significantly (p<0.05) compared with ML.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of amino acids complex and choline supplementation on the antioxidant enzyme activities and oxidative stability of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) beef. Fifteen months-old-Hanwoo steers were assigned into two groups and fed on a basal diets with or without amino acids complex (≥25% L-lysine monohydrochloride+≥8% DL- methionine)+choline (≥25% choline chloride) for 12 months. After slaughter, the M. longissimus from carcasses were stored at 4℃ for 7 days. Catalase, glutathione peroxidase and total superoxide dismutase activities were found to be unaffected by supplementation of amino acids+choline. After 2 days of storage, significant decline (p<0.05) in lipid oxidation (2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, TBARS) was observed when supplemented with amino acids+choline. However, supplementation of amino acids+choline maintained meat color as indicated by higher CIE L* (Lightness), a* (Redness), b* (Yellowness) and C* (Chroma) values during storage. It was therefore concluded that supplemental amino acids+choline could stabilize the lipid oxidation stability and meat color in Hanwoo beef.

System L amino acid transporter is a major route for providing living cells with neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids. To elucidate the expression pattern of L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) in the bone formation process, the expressions of LAT1 and its subunit 4F2 heavy chain (4F2hc) were investigated in the healing process after the implantation of bone graft materials in the calvarial osseous defected rats. Circular calvarial defects (1 cm in diameter) were made midparietally. The rats were divided into 4 groups of 1 control group and 3 experimental groups. In the control group, the defect was only covered with soft tissue flap. In the experimental groups, they were filled with human particulate dentin (particulate dentin group), with plaster of Paris (plaster of Paris group) and with the mixture of human particulate dentin and plaster of Paris with ratio of 2 : 1 by weight (mixture group). The rats were sacrificed at the 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks after operation and the RT-PCR analysis and immunohistochemical analysis were performed. In the RT-PCR analysis, the mRNAs of LAT1 and 4F2hc were strongly detected in all 4 groups. In the immunohistochemical analysis, at 1 week after operation, the LAT1 protein and its subunit 4F2hc protein were mainly expressed in the osteoblasts, osteocytes and interstitial tissues of the around the defect and inner part of newly forming bone in all 4 groups. The expressions of LAT1 and 4F2hc proteins were decreased at 2 and 4 weeks after operation. The LAT1 and 4F2hc proteins were scarcely expressed at 8 weeks after operation in all 4 groups. These results suggest that the LAT1 and its subunit 4F2hc highly expressed at the early stage of new bone formation and may have an important role in providing cells with neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids at that stage.
Amino acid transporters are essential for the growth and proliferation in all living cells. Among the amino acid transporters, the system L amino acid transporters are the major nutrient transport system responsible for the Na+-independent transport of neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids. The L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) is over-expressed to support cell growth in malignant tumors. The double stranded RNA-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) analysis can be in a wide variety of eukaryotes to induce the sequence-specific inhibition of gene expression. In this study, we examined the effect of LAT1 short interfering RNA (siRNA) on cell growth using siRNA of LAT1 in the KB human oral squamous cell carcinoma. In the RT-PCR analysis and western blot analysis, the siRNA of LAT1 inhibited expressions of LAT1 mRNA and protein. The uptake of [14C]L-leucine was inhibited by siRNA of LAT1. In the MTT assay, the siRNA of LAT1 inhibited the growth of the KB cells in the time-dependent manner, indicating that the growth inhibition of KB cell by the siRNA of LAT1 is induced by the blocking of neutral amino acid transport mediated by LAT1. These results suggest that the transport of neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids into the KB human oral squamous cell carcinoma is mediated mainly by LAT1. Further, the LAT1 would be a new target for the inhibition of cancer cell growth.

본 연구는 아미노산의 첨가가 돼지 수정란의 체외 발달율에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 PEF가 함유된 NCSU-23을 기본배지로 체외성숙 및 체외배양액을 조성한 후 EA(Essential amino acid), NA(Non-essential amino acid) 및 EANA(EA+ NA)를 첨가하여 체외성숙, 체외수정 및 체외발달에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 체외성숙 배지에 아미노산을 첨가한 결과 MH 단계까지의 체외성숙율은 NA 첨가군이 83.3%로 대조구 70.0%에 비하여 유의적으로(p<0.05) 높았다. 그러나 체외 수정 이후의 배 발달율과 수정율에서는 아미노산 첨가군과 무첨가군 사이에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 체외배양액에 아미노산을 첨가한 후 배반포의 내부세포괴(ICM) 세포와 영양배엽(TE) 세포의 발달에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과, ICM에서는 유의차를 발견할 수 없었으나 TE 세포는 EANA 처리구가 18.0±0.5개로 대조구 16.09±0.56개에 비해 유의적(p<0.05)으로 많았다. 총세포수에서도 EANA 처리구가 50.0±1.0개로 대조구 44.2±1.1개보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 많았다. 이상의 결과를 종합할 때, 돼지의 체외수정란 생상에 있어서 아미노산의 첨가는 배반포로의 발달율에는 영향을 미치지 못하였으나 체외성숙율을 높이고 배반포의 세포수 향상에 도움을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 특히, 영양배엽(W) 세포의 발달율이 높은 것으로 보아 아미노산의 첨가는 돼지수정란의 착상에 도움을 줄 것이라 기대된다.

본 연구는 콩, 메주, 그리고 된장을 제조하여 장기간(12개월) 숙성시키는 과정 주에 아미노산성질소, 아미노산, 유리아미노산 및 색도의 변화를 관찰하고자 수행되었다. 된장의 제조는 한국식품개발원의 지침에 따라 수행하였으며 제조 직후, 6개월 숙성 및 12개월 숙성후에 시료를 분석하였다. 된장의 아미노산성질소는 제조 직후에는 콩과 메주에 비하여 높았으나(p<0.05) 숙성기간이 경과함에 따라 감소하는 경향이었다. 된장의 아미노산 총량은 콩보다 매우 낮았으나 유리아미노산 총량은 매우 높았다(p<0.05). 된장의 아미노산 총량은 숙성중 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았으나 유리아미노산 총량은 숙성기간이 경과함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 아미노산에 대한 유리아미노산의 비율(유리율)은 총량으로 콩의 경우 0.8%, 메주의 경우 17.3%, 그리고 된장의 경우 숙성중 20.4~32.9%이었다. 된장의 숙성중 아미노산이나 유리아미노산의 조성은 변화되었으나 어느 시점에서나 지미성분인 glutamic acid가 가장 많이 검출되었으며, 그 유리율은 21.1~41.5%이었다. 된장의 색도(명도, 적색도 및 황색도)는 숙성기간이 경과함에 따라 낮아졌다. 이로부터 된장의 아미노산 함량은 비록 콩에 비하여 매우 낮지만, 아미노산 유리율은 메주의 제조와 발효로부터 증가되고 된장의 숙성과정에서 더욱 증가되는 것을 알 수 있다. 된장의 아미노산성질소, 아미노산 및 색도에 의한 관능적 품질은 숙성 12개월 후에는 떨어지는 것으로 보인다.
Arrùno acid transpoπers play an important role in supplying nutrition to cells and for cell proliferation. System L is a major nutrient transport system responsible for the Na+-independent transport of large neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids. In malignant tumors, a system L transporter L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LATl) is upregulated to support tumor cell growth. In the present study, we have examined the expression and function of system L amino acid transporter in FaDu human pharyngeal squamous carcinoma cells. RT-PCR, real-time quantitative RT-PCR and westem blot analysis have revealed that the FaDu cells express LATl together with its associaω19 protem 4F2hc, whereas the FaDu cells do not express the other system L isoform L-type amino acid transporter 2 (LAT2). 까le uptake of L-(14Clleucine by FaDu cells is Na+-independent and almost completely inhibited by system L selective inhibitor 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)-heptane-2- carboxylic acid (BCH). The profiles of the inhibition of L-[I4Cllellcine uptake by variolls amino acids in the FaDu cells are comparable with those for the LA T1 expressed in Xenopus 。()(찌es. π1e majority of L-[I4Clleucine uptake is, therefore, mediated by LAT1 in the FaDu cells. These results suggest that the transport of neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids in the FaDu human pharyngeal squamous carcinoma cells mediated by LAT1. In addition, specific inhibition of LAT1 by such agents as BCH in pharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas will be a new rationale for anti-cancer therapy.
본 연구는 체외에서 한우 난포란의 핵성숙과 그 후의 초기 배발달에 있어서 체외성숙 배지에 아미노산의 첨가가 난포란의 제1극체(PB) 출현율, 배발달율 그리고 배반포의 세포수에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 첨가하는 아미노산의 종류와 농도는 각각 MEM 배지의 non-essential amino acids (NEAA)와 BME 배지의 essential amino acids(EAA)는 1, 2, 4배 및 유청중의 lactalbumine hydrolysate(LAH)는 1, 5, 10 ㎎/㎖이었다. 그 결과 NEAA와 EAA의 경우 PB 출현율은 1배 첨가군이 미첨가군보다 유의하게 높았지만(p<0.05), 첨가량이 증가할수록 오히려 감소하였다. 그러나 배반포로의 배발달율은 모든 군에서 비슷한 경향이었다. 그리고 배반포의 총 세포수와 총 세포수중 TE 세포수는 2배 처리군이 가장 높았으며, ICM 세포수는 아미노산 첨가량이 증가할수록 많아졌다. 한편 LAH의 경우 PB 출현율은 5㎎ 첨가군이 가장높았으며, 배반포로의 발달율은 미첨가군과 1 ㎎ 첨가군이 5 ㎎ 첨가군과 10 ㎎ 첨가군보다 각각 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 그리고 배반포의 세포수는 NEAA와 EAA를 이용하였을 경우와 비슷한 경향이었다. 이상의 결과로부터 체외성숙용 배지에 아미노산의 첨가는 생산된 배반포의 품질을 향상시킬 수 있기 때문에 배반포의 체외생산에 이용할 수 있는 새로운 아미노산의 종류 및 농도를 탐색할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.
It has been said that amino acid transporters play an important role in supplying nutrition to normal and cancer cells and for cell proliferation. System L is a major nutrient transport system responsible for the Na+-independent transport of large neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids. In malignant tumors, a system L transporter L-type amino acid transporter 1(LAT1) is up-regulated to support tumor cell growth. In the present study, we have examined the function of LAT1 and its expression in the KB human oral epidermoid carcinoma cells. RT-PCR, western blot analysis and immunohistochemical analysis have revealed that KB cells express LAT1 in the plasma membrane together with its associating protein 4F2hc, whereas KB cells do not express the other system L isoform LAT2. The uptake of L-[14C]leucine by KB cells is Na+-independent and almost completely inhibited by system L selective inhibitor BCH. The profiles of the inhibition of L-[14C]leucine uptake by amino acids in the KB cells are comparable with those for the LAT1 expressed in Xenopus oocytes. The majority of L-[14C]leucine uptake is, therefore, mediated by LAT1 in the KB cells. These results suggest that the uptakes of neutral amino acids including several essential amino acids in the KB oral epidermoid carcinoma cells mediated by LAT1. In addition, specific inhibition of LAT1 by such agents as BCH in human oral squamous cell carcinomas will be a new rationale for anti-cancer therapy.
