Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate how herb extracts may improve blood circulation. Twenty-six extracts from nine different herbs (marjoram, lavender, dill, rosemary, hyssop, rose, lemon balm, pineapple sage, and echinacea) were evaluated for their anti-hypertensive effects via angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition. Their cholesterol-lowering effects via hydroxy-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibition and their fibrinolytic activity via fibrin-plate method were also evaluated. Both water extraction of rose flowers and 70% EtOH extraction of pineapple sage leaves effectively reduced the ACE activity with inhibition rates of 133.8% and 91.2%, respectively. Similarly, both water and 70% EtOH extracts of rose flowers strongly inhibited the enzymatic activity of HMG-CoA reductase by 48.9% and 80.5%, respectively. Water and 70% EtOH extracts of rose flowers also showed relatively high fibrinolytic activity. Based on these observations, rose flower extracts can be developed as a functional tool for use in the improvement of blood circulation.

본 연구는 혈액순환 개선 효능을 알아보기 위해 민간에서 빈번하게 사용하는 허브류인 마조람, 라벤더, 딜, 로즈마리, 히솝, 장미, 레몬밤, 파인애플 세이지 및 에키네시아 등 총 9종 을 실험 시료로 선정하였다. 이들을 부위별 및 용매별로 추출하여 angiotensin I converting enzyme(ACE) 저해 활성, hydroxy-methylglutalyl coenzyme A reductase 저해활성 및 혈전용해활성을 측정하였다. 추출 수율은 장미꽃이 가장 높았으며 열수 추출의 경우 43.3%였고 70% 에탄올 추출의 경우 45%였다. ACE 저해활성은 열수 추출의 경우 장미꽃이 133.8% 로 가장 높았고 70% 에탄올 추출의 경우에는 파인애플 세이지 잎이 91.2%로 가장 높았다. HMG-CoA reductase 저해활성의 경우에는 장미꽃이 열수 추출물 48.9%, 70% 에탄올 추출물 80.5%로 모두 높았다. 혈전용해활성도 장미꽃에서 열수 추출이나 에탄올 추출물 모두 가장 높은 활성을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 장미꽃 추출물의 혈액순환 개선 효과가 뛰어난 것으로 나타나 기능성 식품으로의 개발 가능성이 기대된다.
