Abstract

대표적 간장해 유발 물질인 사염화탄소로 유도된 급성 간독성에 미치는 한국산 부추(Alluim tuberosum) 에탄을 추출물의 효과를 관찰하였다. 사염화탄소 투여로 혈청 AST (aspartate transaminale), ALT (alanine tranlaminase)와 ALP(alkaline phosphatase)활성이 현저히 증가하였으며,부추 에탄을 추출물의 투여(50, 100, 200mg/kg)로 특히 CCl$_{4}$에 의해 유도된 AST와 ALT의 활성이 농도 의존적으로 회복되었다. 사염화탄소 투여로 감소된 SOD (superoxide dismutase)와 catalase 활성은 부추의 에탄을 추출물 투여로 유의성 있는 활성 증가를 나타내어 간장해로 인한 산화적 스트레스가 부추의 항산화작용에 의해 완화되었음을 시사하였다. 결과적으로 부추 ethanol 추출물의 간보호 및 항산화작용으로 사염화탄소로부터의 간장해를 개선시키는 것으로 사료된다.
