Abstract

In postmenopausal women, estrogen deficiency can be associated with metabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to investigate factors related to lipid, glucose and antioxidnat metabolism. Sprague-Dawley female rats were subjected to either bilateral ovariectomy or sham operation and randomly divided into 3 dietary groups, (n=8) sham-operated fed with normal diet (SHAM), ovariectomized fed with normal diet (OVX), and ovariectomized fed with normal diet supplemented with Eucommia ulmoides extract (OVX-EU). The OVX-EU group showed significantly lower body weight, triacylglycerol, and total cholesterol than that showed by the OVX group. In addition, the OVX-EU group showed improved lipogenesis, glucose-regulating enzyme activities, adipokine and antioxidant enzyme activities. These findings demonstrate that extracts from E. ulmoides extract can be used as a functional food.

본 연구는 폐경 이후 여성에 대한 두충 추출물의 효과를 확인하고자, in vitro 항산화 활성 분석 및 암컷 흰쥐의 난소를 절제한 후 폐경을 유도하여, 두충 열수추출물 보충 급여에 따른 지질, 당질대사 및 항산화 대사 관련 지표를 분석하였다. In vitro 항산화 활성분석 결과 환원력은 0.79(O.D. at 700 nm)로 대조군인 BHA (0.51, O.D. at 700 nm) 보다 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 동물실험 분석결과로는 난소절제군에 비해서 난소절제 후 두충추출물 급여군이 체중 감소경향을 보였으며, 혈장 지질농도 및 동맥경화지수도 유의적으로 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 간조직의 지방생합성 효소활성도에는 OVX-EU군에서 활성이 억제되었으며, 지방조직에서는 유의적차이가 없었다. 지방산화 효소 활성은 지방조직에서 OVX-EU군의 활성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 간조직의 당질대사 관련 효소 활성은 난소절제군들간의 유의적인 차이가 없었으며, 혈장 adipokine 중 OVX군은 렙틴과 아디포넥틴 수준이 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며, $TNF-{\alpha}$는 높게 측정되었다. 항산화 효소 활성은 OVX-EU군이 간조직에서 GR과 PON, 신장조직에서 SOD, CAT, GR 활성이 OVX군보다 높게 나타났다. 본 실험의 결과들은 폐경이후 에스트로겐 결핍으로 인해 발생되는 비만관련 대사장애의 개선 및 예방소재로서 두충의 기능성 소재 개발도 가능 할 것으로 기대된다.
