Abstract

Diabetes mellitus has been known to be a state of increased oxidative stress. Free radical formation and lipid peroxidation are accelerated in this metabolic disorder. Buchu (Allium tuberosum Rottler) contains lots of antioxidative nutrients such as chlorophyll, vitamin C, $\beta$-carotene, phenolic compounds and sulfur compounds. To investigate the protective effects of buchu, 10% lyophilized buchu diet was fed to streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats for 14 weeks and lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, contents of reactive oxygen species, activities of antioxidative enzymes and contents of accumulated lipofuscin were measured as indicators of oxidative stress. Hepatic MDA and carbonyl contents tended to decrease in 10% buchu diet group compared with control group. Dietary buchu significantly suppressed lipid and protein oxidation in the skin of rats (p<0.05). Contents of hepatic hydroxyl radicals, which exert the highest toxicity among the reactive oxygen species, were significantly decreased in rats fed 10% buchu diet (P<0.05). Activities of antioxidative enzyme, such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, tended to increase in liver and skin of rats fed 10% buchu diet, while hepatic catalase activity was significantly increased in buchu group compared with control group. Buchu supplementation significantly inhibited the accumulation of lipofuscin, an end-product of lipid peroxidation reactions induced by reactive oxygen radicals, in eye tissues compared with control diet (p<0.001). In conclusion, buchu supplementation diminished the oxidative stress, so dietary buchu could help to attenuate diabetes complications.

산화적 스트레스를 많이 받는 당뇨상태에서 항산화활성이 높은 부추의 섭취가 지질 및 단백질 산화, 활성산소종의 생성, 항산화 효소계 활성 변화 및 lipofuscin생성에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 S.D.계 쥐에게 streptozotocin을 복강투여하여 당뇨병을 유발시킨 후 대조군 식이와 10% 부추식이를 14주간 섭취시켰다. 부추의 섭취는 대조군식이에 비해 간보다는 피부조직에서 지질 및 단백질 산화를 유의적으로 감소 시켰고(p<0.05), 반응성이 큰 활성산소종인 hydroxyl radical의 생성도 당뇨군에 비해 유의적으로 감소된 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05).부추의 섭취는 간과 피부조직의 항산화 효소계 활성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났으며 심장과 눈 조직에서 노화색소인 lipofuscin을 측정한 결과 당뇨군에 비해 당뇨부추군에서 감소하였고 특히 눈에서 유의적으로 감소하였다(p<0.001). 이상의 결과로 부추의 섭취는 당뇨 합병증을 일으키는 주요 원인인 산화적 스트레스를 억제하는 효과를 나타내었고, 당뇨 합병증의 증상완화에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대되어 진다.
