Alcoholic steatosis is a fundamental metabolic disorder and may precede the onset of more severe forms of alcoholic liver disease. In this study, we isolated enzymatichydrolysate from Semisulcospira libertine by alcalase hydrolysis and investigated the protective effect of Semisulcospira libertine hydrolysate on liver injury induced by alcohol in the mouse model of chronic and binge ethanol feeding (NIAAA). In an in vitro study, the hydrolysate protects HepG2 cells from ethanol toxicity. Liver damage was assessed by histopathological examination, as well as by quantitating activities of serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). After the administration of S. libertina hydrolysate, fat accumulation and infiltration of inflammatory cells in liver tissues were significantly decreased in the NIAAA mouse model. The elevated levels of serum AST, ALT, and ALP activities, along with the lipid contents of a damaged liver, were recovered in experimental mice administrated with S. libertina hydrolysate, suggesting its role in blood enzyme activation and lipid content restoration within damaged liver tissues. Moreover, treatment with S. libertine hydrolysate reduced the expression rate of cyclooxygenase (COX-2), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6, which accelerate inflammation and induces tissue damage. All data showed that S. libertine hydrolysate has a preventive role against alcohol-induced liver damages by improving the activities of blood enzymes and modulating the expression of inflammation factor, suggesting S. libertine hydrolysate could be a commercially potential material for the restoration of hepatotoxicity.

본 연구에서는 약용식물 추출물을 함유한 숙취해소 음료가 항산화 및 알코올 분해에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 약용식물 추출물의 총 페놀성화합물 함량, 총 플라보노이드 함량 및 DPPH radical 소거활성 및 ALDH(aldehyde dehydrogenase) 활성을 측정하였고, 약용식물 추출물을 함유한 숙취해소 음료의 복용이 음주 후 호흡 중 알코올 농도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 항산화활성은 빼빼목 추출물 에서 높은 수치(total phenolic compound 97.5.6mg/g, total flavonoid 306.5mg/g, DPPH radical 소거능 80.1%)를 나타냈으며 Acetaldehyde(ALDH)에 대한 활성은 헛개 및 울금 추출물에서 306% 및 292%로 가장 높은 활성을 나타내어, 헛개 및 울금 추출물이 ALDH 제거에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 헛개 및 울금 추출물이 함유된 숙취해소 음료를 이용하여, 임상실험을 실시한 결과, 시간경과에 따라 대조군에 비해 숙취해소음료 섭취군에서 알코올 농도가 감소되는 경향을 나타냈으며 흡연자에 비해 비 흡연자가, 남성에 비해 여성에게 숙취해소 음료의 섭취가 더 효과적인 것으로 확인되었다.

땅콩을 발아시켜 새싹으로 키우게 되면 땅콩에 함유되어 있는 resveratrol과 asparagine 성분이 크게 증가된다는 보고가 있다. 이러한 사실을 바탕으로 땅콩새싹 추출물을 이용한 숙취해소음료를 개발하였 다. 본 연구에서는 땅콩새싹 추출물을 이용한 숙취해소 음료가 항산화 및 알코올분해효소 활성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서, 총 페놀 함량과 DPPH radical 소거활성 및 ADH와 ALDH 효소활성을 in vitro 및 in vivo 실험을 통하여 확인하였다. in vitro 실험결과 총 페놀 함량과 DPPH radical 소거활성에 있 어서는 두 가지 모두 땅콩새싹 숙취해소음료가 제품A보다는 약 6배, 제품B보다는 약 2배 정도로 높은 활성을 보였으며, ADH와 ALDH 효소활성은 제품A 보다 각각 약 40배와 약 7배 정도로 높게 나타났으 며, 제품B 보다는 약 20배와 약 2배 정도로 높게 나타났다. in vivo 실험을 통한 혈중 알코올농도는 시 간이 경과함에 따라 빠르게 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 아세트알데히드는 시간이 경과함에 따라 대조군에 비하여 빠르게 분해되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 땅콩새싹을 이용한 숙취해소 음료는 시중에 판 매되고 있는 숙취해소음료와 비교해 볼 때 항산화 및 알코올분해효소 활성에 효과적이라 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate free amino acid composition, antioxidant activity, alcohol dehydrogenase activity and the sensory quality attributes for the development of functional soy sauce using Hutgae (Hovenia dulcis Thunb) fruit, which is well-known for improving liver function and alleviating various negative physiological effects following heavy consumption of alcoholic beverages. Soy sauces adding six types of extract from Hutgae fruit (HF) were prepared (SSH1: HF 20%, SSH2: HF 10%, SSH3: HF 20%/40 days NaCl extract, SSH4: HF 20%/20 days NaCl extract, SSH5: HF 20% water bath extract, SSH6: freeze-drying powder from HF 20% aqueous extract), compared with soy sauce using the conventional method. These soy sauces were used for determining alcohol dehydrogenase activity by NADH absorbance, the antioxidant effect by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and sensory evaluation by sensory scaling. Total free amino acid contents for most samples were in the range of 327.3 to 375.5 ㎎%, and then, aspartic acid and glutamic acid content of SSH1 and SSH5 were higher than that of others. DPPH radical scavenging activity was shown to be the highest in SSH4, also SSH1, SSH5 and SSF6 were shown to be higher than the control group. Alcohol dehydrogenase activity was shown to be the highest in SSH5. In sensory evaluation, the highest intensity of roast smell was observed in SSH4 while sweet taste was shown to be the highest in SSH5, and SSH3 and SSH5 revealed higher overall acceptability. From these results, Hutgae fruit soy sauces demonstrated antioxidant activity and alcohol dehydrogenase activity. In conclusion, soy sauces containing the water bath extract of Hutgae fruit may be used as a functional seasoning.

These studies were conducted to investigate the effects an herbal extract composition(MHE) containing Hovenia dulcis T., Artemisa capillaris T., Pueraria thunbergiana B., Polygonatum falcatum A., Agastache rugosa O., Silybum marianum L. and Glycyrrhiza uralensis F. in alcohol administered mice. Prophylactic administration of different doses of MHE(20~100 ㎎/㎏) had beneficial actions toward alcohol degradation in acute alcohol treated mice. In addition, intraperitoneal administration of the MHE showed anti-inflammatory effects in inhibition tests of vascular permeability produced by acetic acid. MHE also reduced the concentrations of nitric oxide(NO) and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α in macrophages that were activated by LPS. These results demonstrate that MHE possesses the potential to stimulate alcohol degradation and inhibit inflammatory effects in mice.

This study investigated the effects of mulberry fruit extract on antioxidant activities and the alleviation of an alcoholinduced hangover, which was measured with alcohol dehydrogenase(ADH) enzyme activity. The antioxidative capacity of each mulberry extract was measured by total phenolic compounds, electron donating ability, superoxide dismutase-like ability, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and nitrite scavenging ability. The 60% methanol extract yielded the highest total phenolic compounds. The electron donating ability of the 40% ethanol and 40% methanol extracts were 68% and 67%, respectively. The superoxide dismutase-like abilities of the 40% methanol and 40% ethanol extracts were 30% and 28%, respectively, when extracts were assayed at 2.5 ㎎/㎖. The nitrite scavenging ability of the 60% ethanol and 40% methanol extracts were 98% and 97%, respectively. The 60% ethanol extract yielded the highest ADH.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Acanthopanax senticosus extracts(ASE) on alcohol administered mice. The administration of Acanthopanax senticosus extracts(60㎎/㎏) had beneficial actions toward alcohol degradation in acute alcohol treated mice. In the acute alcohol degradation experiment, serum alcohol concentration were lower 3 and 6 hours after taking ethanol(5g/㎏) in ASE treated mice. The oral administration of ASE showed decreased gastric mucous membrane damage produced in ethanol treated mice. In addition, intraperitoneal(i.p.) administration of ASE showed anti-inflammatory effects in inhibition tests of vascular permeability produced by acetic acid. ASE also reduced concentrations of nitric oxide(NO), tumor necrosis alpha(TNF)-α and interleukin(IL)-6 in macrophages that were activated by LPS. These results demonstrate that Acanthopanax senticosus extracts possesses the potential to stimulate alcohol degradation and inhibit inflammatory effects in mice.

The characteristics of the narirutin-added alcohol fermentation of citrus hydrolysates were investigated to produce functionally improved citrus wine. The pH of narirutin-added citrus wine ranged from 3.38 to 3.51, and the titratable acidity was about 0.55% which show no significant differences attributable to the narirutin quantity. With regard to the color and brown color, with the addition of more narirutin, the a value was decreased while the b value and brown color increased. The sugar content decreased from 24 to 8.0-8.5 ˚Brix after alcohol fermentation, and the alcohol content appeared to be between 14.5 and 14.6% in all the sections. For the free sugar contents, the glucose and fructose contents were relatively high in every section. For the total polyphenol content, it was shown to increase when more narirutin was added. and the 2%-narirutin-added section showed the highest polyphenol content(46.44 mg%). The results of sensory evaluation were that the color, flavor and bitterness increased while the sweetness and overall acceptability were reduced by the additional narirutin. Functionally improved citrus wine can be produced by using narirutin, but more researches regarding quality improvement should be carried out to overcome the bitterness.
