Abstract

The effects of branched chain amino acids added to a diet on changes in the body weight with or without liver, moist and dry liver weight, protein, DNA, $^3H-thymidine$ incorporation into DNA, ana mitotic index of regenerating liver were studied in partial hepatectomized rat. Experimental diet was a 14.63% casein diet supplemented with 1.49% L-leucine, 0.90% L-isoleucine and 0.98% L-Valine, and control diet was an 18.0% casein. In both diets, 2.54% nitrogen were included. Rats fed experimental diet were significantly increased body weight with or without liver 7 days, and regenerated weight of dry liver and an index of liver regeneration 5 days after partial hepatectomy. Mitotic index, contents of protein and DNA increased in regenerating liver after partial hepatectomy was higher in experimental diet group. This results suggest that branched chain amino acids have an benefitial effect on whole body as well as liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy in rat.

18% casein식(食)을 대조식이(對照食餌)로 하여 분지쇄(分枝?) 아미노산(Leu. lie. Val.)을 첨가(添加)한 실험식이(實驗食餌)의 간부분절제후(肝部分切除後)의 Rat에 대한 영양학적(營養學約) 효과(效果)를 검토(檢討)하였다. 자유채취(自由攝取)시키면, 실험식이군(寶驗食餌群)은 대조식이군(對照食餌群)에 비하여 6일(日)째까지 식이채취량(食餌攝取量)이 적지만, 8 일(日)째부터는 증가하고 체중증가(體重增加)도 그와 평행하였다. 14 일(日)째에 간(肝)의 부분절제(部分切除)를 행하면, 7 일후의 체중(體重)은 식이채취량(食餌攝取量)은 동일(同一)하면서도 실험식이군(實驗食餌群)에서 유의(有意)하게 증가(增加)하였다. 또한 간부분절제후(肝部分切除後) 5 일(日)째의 간재생중량(肝再生重量) 및 간재생지수(肝再生指數)도 유의(有意)하게 증가(增加)를 나타내었다. 이상으로 보아, 분지쇄(分枝?)아미노산 첨가식이(添加食餌)는 재생간(再生肝) Rat에 대하여 체중증가(體重增加) 및 간재생(肝再生) 보호작용(促進作用)에 있어서 영양학적(營養學論) 효과(效果)가 있다는 것이 인정(認定)된다.
