Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the inhibitory effect of hepatic toxicity and liver lipid metabolism after administration of Artemisia capillaris and Paecilomyces japonica. Along with the control, SD rats were divided into ethanol treated group with subgroups of 6% Artemisia capillaries (6A), 4% Artemisia capillaris+2% Paecilomyces japonica (4A2P), 3% Artemisia capillaris+3% Paecilomyces japonica (3A3P), 2% Artemisia capillaris+4% Paecilomyces japonica (2A4P) and 6% Paecilomyces japonica (6P). In this study we also intended to verify the optimum ratio of Artemisia capillaris and Paecilomyces japonica which can reduce hepatotoxicity. Artemisia capillaris and Paecilomyces japonica reduced cholesterol and triglyceride levels which were increased by ethanol. Total-cholesterol level was decreased the most in the groups of 4A2P and 3A3P. On the other hand, activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was enhanced significantly (p<0.05). Malondialdehyde (MDA) activity was decreased significantly (p<0.05) in the subgroup of 6A and 4A2P. When the ratio of Artemisia capillaris and Paecilomyces japonica was 2:1, the improvement of the rat serum and liver lipid metabolism and the alleviation of hepatic damage by ethanol were the most effective in this study. Therefore, it can be considered that the symptoms of severe chemically induced hepatotoxicity could be reduced by Artemisia capillaris and Paecilomyces japonica administration.

본 연구는 에탄올을 투여한 흰쥐에서 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 단독 또는 병행투여가 혈청 및 간의 지질대사와 간기능 및 항산화효소 활성에 미치는 효과를 살펴보고자 생후 4주령된 흰쥐에게 표준식이를 급여한 정상식이군, 에탄올투여 대조군, 6%인진쑥과 6% 눈꽃동충하초를 각각 단독투여한 군, 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군, 3%인진쑥과 3% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군, 2% 인진쑥과 4% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군 등 7군으로 나누고 각 실험식이로 5주간 사육하였다. 혈청 총 콜레스테롤, 중성지방 농도 및 동맥경화지수(AI)는 정상식이군에 비해 에탄올 투여 대조군에서 유의하게 증가되었으나 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군과 3% 인진쑥과 3% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군에서 대조군에 비해 유의하게 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 에탄올 투여한 흰쥐의 간장 내 총 지질과 총 콜레스테롤 및 중성지방의 함량은 정상식이군보다 증가하였으나 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 투여로 감소하였으며 특히 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초를 병행투여한 군에서 유의하게 감소하였다. 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 투여로 ALT의 활성이 대조군에 비해 저하되었으며 6% 인진쑥 투여군과 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군에서는 유의하게 감소되었고, 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 단독투여와 비율을 달리한 병행투여는 catalase, SOD등 항산화효소의 활성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 과산화지질은 에탄올의 투여 시 정상식이군에 비해 유의하게 증가되었으며 이는 6% 인진쑥 투여군과 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초 병행투여군에서 유의하게 감소되었다. 이상의 결과를 보아 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 투여는 흰쥐의 혈청과 간의 지질 대사를 개선하고, 간의 항산화효소 활성을 증가시킴과 동시에 과산화지질을 감소시키는 것으로 나타나 혈중지질 대사를 개선하고, 에탄올에 의한 지방간 및 간 경변과 같은 간 손상을 완화시키는데 효과적일 것으로 사료된다. 또한 본 연구의 결과 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초를 단독으로 투여하는 것보다 병행투여 하는 것이 효과적이며 인진쑥과 눈꽃동충하초의 동량투여와 4% 인진쑥과 2% 눈꽃동충하초를 병행투여 하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 사료된다.
