Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate the anti-metabolic syndrome effects of capsule-filled cheonggukjang (CGJ) added with arrowroot (Pueraria thunbergiana) extracts on body weight, adiposity and lipid metabolism in ob/ob mice. Experimental groups were normal control group (NC: basal diet), positive control group (PC: 2% CGJ), CGJ added with arrowroot extracts group (AR: 2% arrowroot in CGJ), and capsule-filled CGJ added with arrowroot extracts group (ARC: 2% arrowroot CGJ capsule). Each group was fed experimental diet for 10 weeks. Final body weight gain and atherogenic index were significantly lower in the ARC than NC group. Serum levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides, blood glucose and atherogenic index were significantly lower in the ARC than NC group. Furthermore, fatty liver and regional lipid accumultion in ob/ob mice were inhibited in the ARC group. The hepatic activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione S-transferase were significantly higher in the ARC than NC group. Therefore, the anti-matabolic syndrome effects of the ARC group were higher than the AR group. In conclusion, these results indicated that CGJ added with arrowroot mediates its anti-obesity effects in ob/ob mice by improving lipid metabolism and antioxidant enzyme.

본 연구는 칡청국장 및 칡청국장 캡슐함유 식이가 체중, 지방축적, 지질대사 등에 미치는 효능을 알아보기 위하여 선천성 비만 및 인슐린 비의존성 당뇨병의 모델동물인 ob/ob 마우스를 대상으로 정상대조군(NC: 일반식이군), 양성대조군(PC: 2% 청국장함유군), 칡청국장 2% 함유군(AR: 2% 칡청국장), 칡청국장 캡슐군(ARC: 2% 칡청국장 캡슐함유)으로 나누어 10주간 실험하였다. 체중 및 식이효율은 칡청국장 캡슐군에서 정상대조군에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였다. 혈청 콜레스테롤, LDL-콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 혈당 및 동맥경화지수는 칡청국장 캡슐군에서 정상대조군에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였다. 칡청국장 캡슐군에서 지방간의 전형적인 지방축적의 억제효과를 보였다. 간조직의 SOD, CAT, GST 활성은 칡청국장 캡슐군에서 정상대조군에 비하여 유의하게 증가하였다. 이에 칡 추출물 청국장 및 캡슐형태의 투여는 지방함량의 저하효과, 혈당강하효과, 항산화계의 활성도 증가 등의 효과를 통하여 항비만기능이 있으며, 칡청국장 캡슐형의 기능성이 높다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다.
