Abstract

This study was designed to investigate the effect of Korean Red ginseng(Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) extracts on antioxidative activities in Sprague-Dawley rats. This study also evaluated the synergistic effect of Korean red ginseng(RG) extracts with Saururus chinensis(Lour.) Baill(SC). and Rubus coreanus Miq.(RC) extracts. Experimental groups were divided into supplementation type(RG extracts, RG with SC and RC extracts) and amounts of extracts. Rats were received drinking water with or without RG, RC and SC extracts for eight weeks. In the antioxidant enzyme activities of liver cytosol, superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities were significantly increased in RG groups and RG with SC and RC groups compared to control group. The antioxidative activities were increased in proportion to supplementation period and amounts of extracts. These results suggest that RG, RC and SC extracts have an beneficial effect to enhance the cellular antioxidant activities in rats.

홍삼(panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) 추출물 단독의 항산화 활성과 홍삼추출물에 삼백초(Saururus chinensis(Lour.) Baill.)와 복분자(Rubus coreanus Miq.) 추출물을 농도별로 보충 급여 하였을 때 나타나는 상승효과를 알아보기 위하여 Sprague Dawley rat에 이들 추출물을 8주간 섭취시킨 후 희생시켜 간장 cytosol중의 superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, GST 등의 항상화 효소계 활성을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 홍삼급여군의 superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase의 효소활성이 대조군에 비해 농도 의존적으로 높았다. 특히 홍삼 단독보다는 삼백초와 복분자를 보충급여시 상승효과가 높았으며 급여기간이 길수록 그 효과가 높았다.
