Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a daily regimen of green vegetable drink supplementation to male subjects improves the blood pressure and enhances other antioxidant enzyme status, lipid profiles and liver functionalities. Twenty nonsmokers and 19 smokers aged $23{\sim}60$ were given 240 mL of green vegetable drink every day for 8 weeks in addition to their normal diet, and blood samples were drawn before and after the intervention. The 8 weeks of green vegetable drink consumption resulted in a significant decrease of diastolic blood pressure in smokers (p<0.05) as well as in nonsmokers (p<0.01), and systolic blood pressure in smokers (p<0.05). Erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was significantly increased in both nonsmokers and smokers after the trials. Plasma total cholesterol (TC) level was decreased in smokers and plasma TC and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were decreased in nonsmokers while triglyceride (TG) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) was not affected in both nonsmokers and smokers by green vegetable drink consumption. Plasma glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), a marker of liver function was significantly reduced in both nonsmokers and smokers and plasma glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) level was significantly reduced in nonsmokers after the supplementation. These results support the hypothesis that green vegetable drink exerts a blood pressure reducing effect and affects not only the activity of antioxidant enzymes, lipid profiles but also plasma GOT and/or GPT levels.

흡연은 체내에서 활성산소중(ROS)을 증가시키어 혈액내 지질과 지단백의 변화, 산화된 LDL에 의한 내피세포의 손상 등을 유발하므로 심혈관질환 발병의 주요 위험인자로 여겨지고 있으며, 과도한 DNA의 산화는 발암원인이 될 수도 있기 때문에 흡연으로 인한 산화적손상의 방어기전으로는 항산화 영양상태의 개선이 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 비흡연자 20명과 흡연자 19명을 대상으로 채소혼합음료를 8주간 매일 240 mL씩 보충 섭취시킨 후, 혈압과 항산화효소 활성도, 지질양상에 대한 개선효과를 관찰하였다. 채소혼합음료 섭취 후에 대상자의 수축기혈압은 흡연자 5.3 mmHg(5.8% 감소), 비흡연자 6.8 mmHg(7.5% 감소)로 유의적으로 감소하였으며, 이완기혈압은 흡연자에게서 3.9 mmHg(3.1% 감소) 감소하였다. 적혈구 내 항산화효소인 SOD활성은 채소혼합음료 섭취 후에 두 군 모두 증가하였으나, GSH-Px, catalase 활성은 두 군 모두 변화를 보이지 않았다. 혈장지질 양상은 채소혼합음료 섭취 후에 비흡연자의 혈장 TC, LDL-C이 감소하였고 흡연자에서는 혈장 TC수준이 감소하였다. 한편, 간 기능을 살펴본 결과, 채소혼합음료 섭취 후에 비흡연군에서는 GOT, GPT, 흡연군에서는 GPT가 각각 감소하였다. 본 연구에서 대상자에게 채소혼합음료를 섭취케 한 후 혈압, 항산화 효소, 혈장지질 양상 및 간 기능수치 등 여러 지표의 개선효과를 관찰할 수 있었는데 이로부터 하루에 240mL씩의 채소혼합음료의 섭취가 흡연자뿐만 아니라 비흡연자의 산화적손상과 관련된 질병을 예방하기 위한 건강에 유익한 방법 중 하나로 제시될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 앞으로는 새로이 개발된 건강기능식품의 생리효과를 검증하기 위한 실험을 수행하고자 할 경우, 정상인뿐 아니라 혈압, 지질양상 및 간 기능 등 각 항목의 고위험자를 대상으로 하는 연구도 광범위하게 수행되어야 하리라고 본다.
