Abstract

Taraxacum coreanum Nakai is a wild medicinal plant commonly consumed in Korea due to its health beneficial effects. In the present study, the contents of polyphenolics and flavonoids as well as antioxidative and anticancer activities of water extracts from different parts of T. coreanum Nakai were investigated for their use as functional foods. Extract yields of flower, leaf, and root were 30.25%, 34.53%, and 66.25%, respectively. Total polyphenols and total flavonoids contents of flower extract were 50.54 mg/g and 35.26 mg/g, respectively, which were much higher than any other parts. The electron donating abilities of flower, leaf, and root extracts were 91.04%, 88.22%, and 38.58%, respectively, at a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL. Cell viability of AGS for human gastric carcinoma, HCT-116 for human colon carcinoma, and A-549 for human pulmonary carcinoma showed the lowest values in flower extracts (40.34%, 39.56%, and 17.52%, respectively), indicating the highest cytotoxicity at a concentration of 400 mg/kg. Both antioxidative and anticancer activities of water extracts from all T. coreanum Nakai parts dose-dependently increased. These results provide preliminary data for the development of T. coreanum Nakai as an edible functional food material.

본 연구는 흰민들레 꽃, 잎, 뿌리의 부위별 성분 및 생리활성을 탐색하고자 열수 추출물에서 총 폴리페놀, 총 플라보노이드, 항산화 및 항암 활성을 분석하였다. 흰민들레 부위별 시료의 열수 추출조건에 따른 추출수율은 꽃, 잎, 뿌리가 각각 30.25%, 34.53%, 66.25%로 뿌리> 잎> 꽃의 순으로 나타났다. Folin-Denis 방법에 따른 총 폴리페놀 함량은 꽃 추출물에서 50.54 mg/g으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 그다음이 잎(41.11 mg/g), 뿌리(10.27 mg/g) 순으로 나타났다. 흰민들레 부위별 열수 추출물에서의 총 플라보노이드 함량은 총 폴리페놀 함량과 같은 경향으로 꽃(35.26 mg/g), 잎(28.91 mg/g), 뿌리(8.28 mg/g)의 순으로 각각 나타났다. DPPH 라디칼 소거 활성으로 분석한 흰민들레 부위별 열수 추출물의 전자공여능은 추출물 농도 의존적으로 나타났으며, 꽃, 잎 및 뿌리 열수 추출물 1.0 mg/mL의 농도에서 각각 91.04%, 88.22%, 38.58%로 꽃 열수 추출물이 가장 높게 나타났다. 이는 폴리페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량이 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 관련이 있음을 보여주었다. 흰민들레 부위별 열수 추출물 400 mg/kg 첨가 시 위암 세포주(AGS), 폐암 세포주(A-549) 및 대장암 세포주(HCT-116)에 대한 암세포 생존율을 확인한 결과 위암 세포주(AGS)에서 꽃(40.34%), 잎(44.56%), 뿌리(95.12%)의 순으로, 대장암 세포주(HCT-116)에서 꽃(39.56%), 잎(48.55%), 뿌리(95.11%)의 순으로, 폐암 세포주(A-549)에서 꽃(17.52%), 잎(23.57%), 뿌리(88.15%)의 순으로 모든 암세포주들에 대하여 꽃 열수 추출물이 가장 높았고 뿌리에서 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 모두 농도 의존적으로 항암 활성이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과 향후 국내 흰민들레 재배면적 확대 뿐만 아니라 기능성 식의약품 소재로서의 이용에 있어 유용한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
