Abstract

흰쥐에 사료 섭취량의 3%(G3군)와 5% (G3군)인 과량의 생마늘(즙)을 1개월간 경구 투여하여 체중 증가율과 사료 섭취량은 큰 영향을 받지 않았다. 흰쥐 외관과 활동도는 별다른 변화가 없었으나 해부 검사에서 G3군 흰쥐일부와 G3군 대부분의 흰쥐의 위벽점막에 홍반(erythema)를 관찰할 수 있었다. 간조직의 현미경 검사에서 G3군의 3마리 흰쥐에서 주로 간 실질세포으 퇘행성 변화와 염증세포의 침윤 등을 관찰했고 G5군의 7마리 흰쥐는 주로 간실질세포의 염증성세포 침윤과 충혈 및 경미한 간세포 괴사를 보였다. GOT와 GPTalc alkaline phosphatase 활성과 BUN수준에서 G3군과 G5군은 dose dependent fashion으로 모두 대조군보다 유의성있게 증가하였다. Total cholesteroltnwns과 hemoglobin함량은 G3군과 G5군에서 유의적인 변화를 보이지 않았다. 이상의 본 실험 결과를 보면 흰쥐에 과량의 마늘을 장기간 투여할 때 명백하게 독성이 나타남을 관찰할 수 있었다.
