Abstract

Effect of the egg yolks from laying hens intubated, p.o., astaxanthin (designated AEY) on mouse humoral immunity was investigated using male ICR mouse (6~7 weeks of age). Mice were adapted in a temperature- and humidity- controlled house for one week and randomly divided into 5 treatment groups (9 mice/cage/treatment). Mice were intubated p.o., AEY (100, 250 and 500$\mu\textrm{g}$) or control egg yolks (CEY, 250$\mu\textrm{g}$), dissolved in 0.1 mL DMSO, for consecutive 4 days. At day 5, carbon suspension (pilot drawing ink 3 mL+3% gelatine 3 mL) was injected 3 $\mu$L Per 1 g body weight through tail vein. Carbon clearance time was measured at 5 and 35 minutes Post the injection of carbon suspension. Another two experiments were conducted to determine the hemagglultinin-titer (HGT) and hemolysin-titer (HLT) with male ICR mouse (8 mice/cage/treatment). Mice treated with AEY were induced immune activity with SRBC. HGT and HLT were measured from the blood at day 1 and 3 after treatment of SRBC. AEY treatment reduced the carbon clearance time. Especially the carbon clearance time by 500 $\mu\textrm{g}$ AEY treatment was 5.00 minutes, which was very short time compared with 9.42 minutes by control and 9.01 minutes by CEY. AEY group showed slights higher values of HGT and HLT than CEY group and control. At day 1, HGT in control, 250$\mu\textrm{g}$ CEY and 250$\mu\textrm{g}$ AEY groups was 5.50, 5.63, and 6.00, respectively. Similiarly, HLT in control, 250$\mu\textrm{g}$ CEY and 250$\mu\textrm{g}$ AEY groups was 4.75, 5.38, and 5.50, respectively, at day 1. These results suggest that AEY exhibited immunity-enhancing effect.

마크로파지의 활성을 조사하기 위해 carbon clearance time을 조사한 결과 AEY 처리구가 control이나 CEY 처리구에 비해 짧았다. 특히 AEY 500$\mu\textrm{g}$ 처리에서 carbon clearance 시간이 5분으로 control에서 9.42분, CEY(250$\mu\textrm{g}$ 처리)에서 9.01분보다 유의성 있는 감소를 보였다. AEY 처리에 의해 응집소가와 용혈소가가 다소증가되었다. SRBC처리 1일째와 3일째에 250$\mu\textrm{g}$ 처리구를 비교해 보면, control, CEY, AEY의 응집소가는 각각 5.50, 5.63, 6.00 및 5.25, 5.38, 5.50로 용혈소가는 각각 4.75, 5.38, 5.50 및 4.25, 5.63, 5.63으로 AEY 처리구가 control, CEY 처리구에 비해 면역 활성이 있었지만 유의성은 없었다.
