성혜미(Hea-Mi Sung),서예슬(Ye-Seul Seo),양은주(Eun Ju Yang) 한국식품영양과학회 2018 한국식품영양과학회지 Vol.47 No.10

본 연구에서는 현초 열수 추출물의 주요 플라보노이드 성분을 분석하고, 열수 추출 조건에 따른 추출물의 항산화 및 항염증 활성을 조사하였다. 현초 열수 추출물의 HPLC 분석결과 quercetin과 kaempferol이 검출되었으며, kaempferol이 가장 함량이 많은 성분으로 확인되었다. 현초를 50°C, 70°C, 90°C의 온도에서 각각 1시간 동안 열수 추출한 후 추출물의 추출 수율, kaempferol 함량, DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능, NO 생성 억제능을 측정하였다. 모든 평가항목에서 90°C 열수 추출물이 유의적으로 우수한 결과를 나타내어, 추출 온도를 90°C로 선정한 다음 추출 시간에 따른 평가를 진행하였다. 90°C에서 각각 1, 2, 3, 4시간 열수 추출한 추출물의 수율은 1시간 추출물의 12.5%에 비해 2시간 이상의 추출에서 16.5~17.0%로 높게 측정되었다. Kaempferol 함량은 2시간 추출에서 1.40 mg/g으로 가장 높은 함량을 나타내었으며, 이후 추출 시간이 증가할수록 감소하여 4시간 추출에서 0.92 mg/g의 함량을 나타내었다. DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능 측정 결과 12.5 μg/mL의 농도에서 1시간 추출물은 각각 36.4%와 35.4%의 소거능을 나타냈으나, 2시간 추출물은 각각 48.2%와 48.1%의 더 높은 소거능을 나타내었으며, 2~4시간 추출물에서 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았다. LPS로 NO 생성을 유도한 대식세포에 추출시간에 따른 열수 추출물을 10 μg/mL로 처리하여 NO 생성억제능을 비교한 결과 LPS 처리군에 비해 1시간 추출물은 35%의 억제율을 보였으나, 2~4시간 추출물은 67~68%의 2배 정도 높은 억제율을 나타내었다. 추출시간에 따른 현초 열수 추출물의 항염증 활성을 염증매개인자의 mRNA 발현억제 효과로 비교하였다. 열수 추출물 10 μg/mL의 농도에서 iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6의 mRNA 발현 억제율은 2시간 추출물에서 각각 76%, 66%, 76%, 79%로 가장 높은 억제 효과를 나타내었다. In this study, we investigated major flavonoids in the hot water extract from Geranium thunbergii. The results of high-performance liquid chromatography showed that hot water extract from G. thunbergii contained 2 flavonoids, of which the major one was kaempferol followed by quercetin. Also, G. thunbergii was extracted at different temperatures (50°C, 70°C, and 90°C) and times (1, 2, 3, and 4 h), and the hot water extracts were evaluated for extraction yield, kaempferol content, anti-oxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory activity. The extraction yield, kaempferol content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities and nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activity increased as the extraction temperature increased. In the evaluation of the extraction time of G. thunbergii, the content of kaempferol was highest after 2 h of extraction, but the extraction yield, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, as well as the NO inhibitory activity were not different after more than 2 h of extraction. We further investigated the effects of hot water extract from G. thunbergii with different extraction times on the expression of pro-inflammatory genes such as iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharides-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. At 10 μg/mL, hot water extract with an extraction time of 2 h showed the highest decrease in expression of pro-inflammatory genes among hot water extracts with different extraction times. Based on these results, we suggest that the optimum hot water extract conditions of G. thunbergii are 90°C for 2 h and that hot water extract from G. thunbergii has the potential for use as an anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agents.

성혜미(Hea Mi Sung),정현정(Hyun Jung Jung),윤수경(Su Kyoung Yun),김태용(Tae Yong Kim),김기명(Ki Myong Kim),위지향(Ji-Hyang Wee) 한국식품과학회 2014 한국식품과학회지 Vol.46 No.5

본 연구는 고농도 산소수로 재배한 콩나물을 당침하여 제조한 콩나물 추출 음료의 숙취해소 효능을 확인하기 위해 콩나물 자체의 asparagine 함량 및 ADH와 ALDH 효소활성을 확인하고 알코올과 콩나물 추출 음료 분말을 투여한 쥐의 혈중 알코올 농도, 아세트알데하이드 농도, ALT, AST 및 ALP를 측정하였다. 고농도 산소수로 재배한 콩나물은 시판중인 콩나물에 비해 asparagine 함량이 높게 나타나 숙취해소 효능을 증가시킬 것으로 예상되었다. 알코올을 경구 투여한 쥐에 콩나물 추출 음료 분말을 투여한 경우 혈중 알코올 농도는 알코올만 투여한 대조군에 비해 1시간, 5시간 경과 후에 유의적으로 감소하였으며 혈중 아세트알데하이드 농도 또한 콩나물 추출 음료 분말 고농도 투여군(SEH)에서 1시간, 3시간, 5시간 경과 후 모두 유의적인 감소를 보였다. 또한 고농도의 콩나물 추출 음료 분말은 시판중인 숙취해소 음료 분말 양성대조군(PC)보다 더 뛰어난 알코올 분해능을 보였으며 ALT, AST 및 ALP 측정 결과에서도 콩나물 추출 음료 분말 고농도 투여군(SEH)의 ALT 농도가 알코올투여군(AC) 및 시판숙취해소 음료 분말 양성대조군(PC)에 비해 유의적으로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 이상과 같은 결과를 토대로 할 때 콩나물 당침 추출물을 이용한 콩나물 추출 음료는 숙취해소에 기여하고 간세포의 손상을 보호할 수 있는 음료로서 이용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다. This study was conducted to investigate the detoxification effect of extract from soy-sprout grown using high concentrated oxygen water extract (SE) against alcohol-induced hangover in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The rats were orally administered with different concentrations of SE beverage [26, 260 and 2,000 ㎎/㎏ body weight (b.w.)] and, after 30 min, with alcohol at a dose of 3 g/㎏ b.w. After 1 and 3 h of alcohol administration, blood was collected from the retroorbital plexus, while after 5 h, blood was collected from the heart. In the 2,000 ㎎/㎏ b.w. SE group, the concentration of blood alcohol was significantly reduced after 1-5 h of alcohol loading as compared with that in the other groups. In addition, the blood acetaldehyde concentration was reduced by SE (2,000 ㎎/㎏ b.w.). These results suggest that SE beverage can alleviate alcohol hangover symptoms by stimulating the activities related to hepatic alcohol-metabolizing enzymes.

효소 처리와 초고압 처리에 의한 콩나물 추출물의 항산화 활성

성혜미(Hea Mi Sung),김숙정(Sook Jeong Kim),김경미(Kyoung Mi Kim),윤수경(Su Kyoung Yun),정현정(Hyun Jung Jung),김태용(Tae Yong Kim),위지향(Ji Hyang Wee) 한국식품영양과학회 2014 한국식품영양과학회지 Vol.43 No.8

본 연구는 콩나물 처리방법에 따른 추출물의 항산화능 평가를 위해 콩나물을 초고압 처리, 효소 처리 및 무처리 후 물추출하여 유리아미노산, 총 페놀, 이소플라본 함량을 확인하고 DPPH 라디칼 소거능, ABTS 라디칼 소거능과 HepG2세포에서의 산화적 스트레스 방어 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 콩나물 처리방법에 따른 추출물의 총 페놀 함량 및 이소플라본의 함량은 효소 처리 추출물> 초고압 처리 추출물> 물 추출물 순이었다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 ABTS 라디칼 소거능 또한 효소 처리 추출물> 초고압 처리 추출물> 물 추출물순으로 나타나 페놀 함량과 이소플라본 함량이 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 ABTS 라디칼 소거능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보였다. HepG2 세포에서 H₂O₂로 유도된 산화적 손상에 대해서는 콩나물 효소 처리 추출물과 콩나물 초고압 처리 추출물이 콩나물 무처리 추출물보다 유의적으로 높은 세포보호활성을 나타냈다. 이상의 결과로부터 콩나물을 효소 처리한 추출물과 초고압 처리한 추출물은 콩나물에 별도의 처리를 하지 않고 물 추출한 것보다 H₂O₂로 유도된 산화적 스트레스로부터 방어 효과가 높게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구를 통해 콩나물의 효소 처리 및 초고압 처리후 물 추출하는 것은 콩나물의 항산화 성분의 추출을 증대시키고 항산화능 및 세포의 산화적 스트레스를 방어하는 효과를 높이는 것으로 확인되었으며 그중에서도 콩나물을 효소처리하는 것이 더 유용한 것으로 판단되었다. 이에 콩나물을 효소 처리하거나 초고압 처리하여 추출하는 것이 항산화능을 증대시킬 수 있는 효과적인 방법이며 이러한 방법을 통해 얻은 콩나물 추출물은 항산화능을 갖는 기능성 소재로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. We investigated the antioxidant activities and effects of soy-sprout extracts (SE) against H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress in HepG2 cells. The major free amino acids were asparagine, valine, pheylalanine, histidine, isoleucine, and leucine in SE. Both soy-spout extract by enzyme (SEE) and soy-spout extract by ultra high pressure (SEP) showed higher contents compared with soy-sprout water extract (SEW). The total polyphenol and isoflavone contents were highest in SEE. SEE had the highest DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities as well. To determine the effects of SE on H₂O₂-induced oxidative damage, cell viability was measured using XTT assay. Pre-treatment with SEE and SEP significantly increased cell viability compared with H₂O₂-treated control cells by 29% and 32%, respectively. These results indicate that SEE and SEP possess antioxidant activity.

( Sung-eun Lee ),( Soo Young Choi ),( Soo-hyun Kim ),( Hye-young Song ),( Hea-lyun Yoo ),( Mi-young Lee ),( Ki-hoon Kang ),( Hee-jeong Hwang ),( Eun-jung Jang ),( Dong-wook Kim ) 대한내과학회 2017 The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine Vol.32 No.1

Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to identify the role of BCR-ABL₁ transcript level as a predictor for post-transplant relapse and outcome in patients who underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) for chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Methods: Of 101 patients receiving allograft in CML CP, 85 had available quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction data at post-transplant 3 months. These patients were divided into two groups according to molecular response (MR^4.5), defined as a BCR-ABL1 transcript level ≤ 0.0032% on the international scale, at 3 months based on receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of relapse. Results: The 4-year overall survival and event-free survival (EFS) were 80.6% and 57.3%, respectively, and the cumulative incidence of relapse at 4 years was 29.6% after a median follow-up of 126.4 months. We performed multivariate analyses including potential variables to evaluate the early predictive role of MR^4.5 at 3 months and found that MR^4.5 at 3 months was associated with a higher EFS (p = 0.028) and showed a trend for a lower relapse rate (p = 0.089). Conclusions: our results imply that frequent molecular monitoring and immune suppressive therapy modulation are required for patients without reduction of BCR-ABL1 transcripts to this level after SCT.

Predictors and clinical outcomes of persistent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia: a prospective observational study

( Hea Sung Ok ),( Hyoun Soo Lee ),( Man Je Park ),( Ki Hoon Kim ),( Byeong Ki Kim ),( Yu Mi Wi ),( June Myung Kim ) 대한내과학회 2013 The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine Vol.28 No.6

Background/Aims: The high mortality attributable to persistent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia in spite of glycopeptide treatment has heightened the need for early detection and intervention with alternative agents. The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical characteristics of and risk factors for persistent MRSA bacteremia. Methods: All first episodes of significant MRSA bacteremia at a 710-bed academic medical center from November 2009 through August 2010 were recorded. Blood cultures were conducted at 3 days and every 2 to 3 days thereafter until clearance. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between persistent MRSA bacteremia (≥ 7 days) and nonpersistent MRSA bacteremia (≤ 3 days). Results: Of 79 patients with MRSA bacteremia during the study period, 31 (39.2%) had persistent MRSA bacteremia. The persistent MRSA bacteremia group had significantly higher 30-day mortality than the nonpersistent MRSA bacteremia group (58.1% vs. 16.7%, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis indicated that metastatic infection at presentation (odds ratio [OR], 14.57; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.52 to 60.34; p < 0.001) and delayed catheter removal in catheter-related infection (OR, 3.80; 95% CI, 1.04 to 13.88; p = 0.004) were independent predictors of persistent MRSA bacteremia. Patients with a time to blood culture positivity (TTP) of < 11.8 hours were at increased risk of persistent MRSA bacteremia (29.0% vs. 8.3%, p = 0.029). Conclusions: High mortality in patients with persistent MRSA bacteremia was noted. Early detection of metastatic infection and early removal of infected intravascular catheters should be considered to reduce the risk of persistent MRSA bacteremia. Further studies are needed to evaluate the role of TTP for predicting persistent MRSA bacteremia.

Maternal and grandmaternal obesity and environmental factors as determinants of daughter’s obesity

Mi Na Shin,Kyung Hea Lee,Hye Sang Lee,Satoshi Sasaki,Hea Young Oh,Eun Soon Lyu,Mi Kyung Kim 한국영양학회 2013 Nutrition Research and Practice Vol.7 No.5

Obesity may be the consequence of various environmental or genetic factors, which may be highly correlated with each other. We aimed to examine whether grandmaternal and maternal obesity and environmental risk factors are related to obesity in daughters. Daughters (n = 182) recruited from female students, their mothers (n = 147) and their grandmothers (n = 67) were included in this study. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze the association between the daughter’s obesity and maternal, grandmaternal, and environmental factors. Maternal heights of 161-175cm (OD: 8.48, 95% CI: 3.61-19.93) and 156-160 cm (2.37, 1.14-4.91) showed positive associations with a higher height of daughter, compared to those of 149-155 cm. Mothers receiving a university or a higher education had a significant OR (3.82, 1.27-11.50) for a higher height of daughter compared to those having a low education (elementary school). Mother having the heaviest weight at current time (59-80 kg, 3.78, 1.73-8.28) and the heaviest weight at 20 years of age (51-65 kg, 3.17, 1.53-6.55) had significant associations with a higher height of daughters, compared to those having the lightest weight at the same times. There was no association between the height, weight, and BMI of daughters and the characteristics and education of her grandmothers. In conclusion, although genetic factors appear to influence the daughter’s height more than environmental factors, the daughter’s weight appears to be more strongly associated with individual factors than the genetic factors.
