Fludarabine, a chain terminating anti-cancer drug, is a purine analogue that causes DNA strand breaks in normal cells. In this study, we determined if A. melanocarpa and Korean red ginseng extract mixture reduce cytotoxicity of fludarabine. Treatment of HaCaT cells with 10 μM of fludarabine for 24 hours decreased cell viability and increased DNA strand breaks. Treatment of A. melanocarpa and Korean red ginseng extract mixture for 24 hours increased cell viability as compared with single extract treatment. The protective effect of these extracts on cell activity increased in a concentration-dependent manner. DNA strand breaks induced by fludarabine decreased as concentration of extract mixture increased. p-H2AX level, a marker of DNA strand breakage, decreased depending on the concentration of extract mixture. The effect of mixed extract of A. melanocarpa and Korean red ginseng on DNA damage is due to the anti-oxidative effect of A. melanocarpa and signal transmission through glucocorticoid receptor upon binding of saponin of Korean red ginseng.
연구는 홍삼박 물추출물(RGW), 에탄올추출물(RGE), 1,3-B.G추출물(RGB)을 HPLC로 성 분 분석과 B16F10에 대한 세포생존율, 항산화능 및 주름개선 효능 평가를 실시하여 홍삼박 추출물의 화장품 소재로서의 응용가능성을 알아보았다.추출물의 HPLC 성분 분석 결과, 세 가지 추출물 모두 다양한 종류의 진세노사이드가 검출되었으며 그 중 RGB가 가장 많은 함량의 진세노사이드가 검출되었다. B16F10의 세포생존율 측정 결과, RGW와 RGB가 유사하며, RGE보다 높은 생존율을 보여주었다. DPPH radical 소거능 측정 결과 RGE>RGB>RGW 순으로 나타났으며 SOD유사활성능 측정 결과는 RGB>RGE>RGW순으로 활성능을 보여주었다. Elastase 저해능 측정 결과에서는 RGW>RGB>RGE 순으로 활성을 보였다. 위와 같은 결과 를 종합하여 볼 때 피부안전성이 우수하며 항산화 및 주름개선 화장품소재로서 RGW와 RGB가 적합할 것으로 판단된다.
Red ginseng marc (RGM) has been used on primary industries using fertilizer or forage, and it mostly has been dumped. To improve utilization of RGM, the biological activities of RGM were examined. RGM was extracted and fractionated using various solvents and their biological activities were compared. The hexane fraction from the methanol extract of RGM (RGMMH) showed strong anti-cancer activity (58.56 ± 6.04% at 100 ㎍/mL) and anti-inflammatory effect (65.72 ± 1.33% at 100 ㎍/mL). But, oil extract of RGM extracted with hexane (RGMH) showed low activities (anti-cancer: 16.42 ± 3.33%, at 100 ㎍/mL, anti-inflammatory activity: 29.46 ± 2.10%, at 100 ㎍/mL). Their metabolites were analyzed using HPLC. Panaxydol known as anti-cancer compound of RGM was one of major compounds in RGMMH. Meanwhile, panaxydol was detected in trace amount in red ginseng marc oil (RGMH). In addition, RGMMH and RGMH showed big differences in HPLC profiling. This research suggests optimal extraction method of RGM oil.
Background: To enhance the taste and physiological characteristics of Lycii fructus (Gugija) extracts, we investigated the changes in the physiological characteristics of Gugija extracts caused by adding white ginseng (WG) and red ginseng (RG)
Methods and Results: Gugija extracts, including 10G10, 10GW-G8 : 2, -G6 : 4, -G4 : 6, -G2 : 8, and -G0 (mixtures made by replacing 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% of Gugija with WG), as well as 10G10, 10GR-G8 : 2, -G6 : 4, -G4 : 6, -G2 : 8, and -G0 (mixture made by replacing 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% of Gugija with RG) were extracted with water at 10 times the respective mixture's volume. The antioxidant activities of Gugija extracts were investigated by assessing their 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azinobis(3ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP) activity, nitrite scavenging activity, and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity. As the amount of WG added increased, the DPPH, and, ABTS radical scavenging activity, and FRAP activity of the Gugija extract decreased. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 10G10, 10GW-G6 : 4, 10GR-G6 : 4, and 10GR-G0 for DPPH radical scavenging activity were 25.50 ± 1.04, 52.06 ± 1.46, 16.87 ± 1.24, and 9.50 ± 0.16 ㎕/㎖, respectively. On the other hand, the physiological activity of Gugija extract increased with the addition of increasing amounts of RG. However, ACE inhibitory activity was the highest (50.25 ± 2.58%) in the Gugija 10-fold extract without any added RG.
Conclusions: From the above results, we suggest that adding RG to Gugija extracts increase their antioxidant, FRAP, and nitrite scavenging activities.
홍삼(Red Ginseng; RG)은 인삼보다 더 높은 생체 흡수율과 다양한 약리효과를 갖는 특이한 진세노사이드(Rg2, Rg3)를 함유하고 있다. 따라서 오랫동안 많은 사람들의 건강을 위해 이용되어 왔다. 또한 발효는 유효한 생리활성을 갖는 저분자의 물질들을 생성하기 때문에 많은 연구자들이 생물학적 활성에 대해 오랫동안 연구해오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 홍삼을 붉은덕다리버섯 균사체로 7일 동안 발효하였다. HPLC 분석 결과 진세노사이드 Rg1, Re 및 Rb2가 각각 0.24, 0.25, 0.16 mg/g에서 0.12, 0.1, 0.03 mg/g으로 함량 감소를 확인하였고, 홍삼 붉은덕다리 균사체배양액(Fermented Red Ginseng; FRG)의 항염, 세포 이동, 항산화, 콜라겐 타입 I 합성과 MMP-1 억제효능에 대한 생물학적 효능을 확인하였다. 그 결과, FRG는 RG보다 항염 및 cell migration 촉진효과가 더 우수하였다. FRG는 LPS로 유도된 RAW 264.7 대식세포의 NO 생성을 억제하였으며, iNOS와 IL-6의 발현을 mRNA 수준에서 억제하였다. 이 결과로 FRG는 새로운 항염소재로서 제안이 가능하다고 사료된다.
방사선과 paraquat에 의해서 유도된 간 손상에 대한 홍삼추출물의 보호효과를 비교 연구하였다. ICR계 생쥐에게 X선의 5Gy조사와 paraquat투여 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하였다. 대조군은 생리적 식염수를 투여하고 방사선조사군은 생리적 식염수를 투여하면서 5Gy를 조사하였다. 홍삼추출물 투여군은 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하면서 5Gy를 조사하였다. Paraquat투여군은 7일 전부터 홍삼추출물(200mg/kg/day)을 투여하면서 paraquat(30mg/kg/day)를 투여하였다. 그리고 각각의 실험군에서 간조직의 H2O2, catalase, MDA를 측정하였다. 그 결과 방사선조사군과 paraquat투여군보다 홍삼추출물 투여군에서 catalase함량이 유의성 있게 증가하여 간의 보호효과가 있었으며 H2O2와 MDA함량도 유의성 있게 감소하였다. 홍삼추출물은 간 조직에 대한 방사선조사 및 paraquat투여로부터 매우 우수한 방호제라고 할 수가 있다.
This study was conducted to compare the contents of ginsenoside according the water extract conditions of red ginseng. In method A, red ginseng extract was prepared at 75℃ for 18 hours by 1 time extraction, and method B, the preparation was done at 85℃ for 18 hours by 1 time extraction. In method C, the primary extract prepared at 75℃ for 9 hours was blended with the secondary extract prepared by re-extracting the red ginseng residue obtained after the primary extraction, at 85℃ for 9 hours. Method D was the same procedure as method C but the extraction temperature for the primary extraction was 85℃ and that for the secondary extraction was 95℃. The contents of total and Rb1, Rg1 and Rg3 ginsenoside were highest in Method C. The content of prosapogenin (ginsenoside Rg2, Rg3, Rb1 and Rb2) was highest in Method B. There was no consistent tendency in Brix, pH, Hue value and absorbance among extraction methods.
