Abstract

The present study investigated the effect of Sinetrol-XPur (polyphenolic Citrus spp. and Paullinia cupana Kunth dry extract) and defined the action mode for cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent uncoupling protein (UCP)-2 activation. Leptin-deficient obese mice were treated with two different doses, 100 mg/kg body weight (BW) and 300 mg/kg BW of each AIN93G supplement, for 7 weeks. Treatment of obese mice with both low and high doses of Sinetrol-XPur significantly reduced body weight gain compared to control obese mice. White adipose tissue weight of mice was reduced by 30.96% in high dose-supplemented groups. Serum total cholesterol and triglyceride were reduced by a high dose of Sinetrol-XPur by 20.02% and 30.96%, respectively. Serum level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) was significantly increased by treatment with both doses, as the ratio of HDL to low density lipoprotein increased by 138.78% and 171.49%, respectively. Regarding expression of biochemical factors related to lipid metabolism, fatty acid synthase significantly decreased and UCP-2 increased upon treatment with a high dose of Sinetrol-XPur, but there was no significant difference in lipoprotein lipase and hormone-sensitive lipase. To define cellular mechanism, intracellular cAMP levels in 3T3-L1 adipocytes significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner over the range of $50{\sim}250{\mu}m/mL$. The phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine clearly blocked cAMP, suggesting that Sinetrol-XPur promotes lipolysis of adipocytes through inhibition of cAMP-dependent PDE, resulting in induction of cAMP response element binding protein and UCP-2. These results suggest that Sinetrol-XPur supplementation is a viable option for reducing body weight and fat by improving serum lipid profiles and genetic expression of lipid metabolic factors, especially activation of cAMP-dependent UCP-2.

본 연구에서는 시네트롤(Sinetrol-XPur)을 유전성 비만 마우스(Obese)에 7주간 식이 투여하여 항비만 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 시네트롤을 섭취한 유전성 비만 마우스군(Sinetrol low와 Sinetrol high)의 체중증가량은 Obese군에 비하여 유의적으로 감소하였고, 간 무게변화량은 Sinetrol high군에서 Obese군보다 유의적으로 감소하였다. 백색지방의 무게변화량은 Sinetrol high군에서 Obese군보다 유의적으로 감소하였음을 확인하였다. 실험동물의 혈청 지질 함량은 TC, TG, LDL/VLDL-콜레스테롤이 Obese군에 비해 Sinetrol군에서 감소하였고, HDL-콜레스테롤은 유전성 비만군(Obese, Sinetrol low, Sinetrol high) 간에 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. HDL/LDL ratio를 계산한 결과에서는 Sinetrol군에서 Obese군보다 유의적으로 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 실험동물군의 지방조직에서 비만 관련 유전자들의 발현을 측정한 결과, FAS와 LPL의 발현은 Obese군보다 Sinetrol군에서 감소하였고 HSL의 발현은 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았지만, UCP-2의 발현은 Obese군에 비해 Sinetrol high군에서 유의적으로 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 또한 세포 내 cAMP를 측정한 결과 시네트롤 처리 시 농도 의존적으로 cAMP가 증가하였음을 확인하였고, 증가한 cAMP에 의해 UCP-2의 발현이 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 시네트롤이 지방 합성과 관련된 유전자 발현의 억제 및 에너지 소비와 관련된 유전자의 발현을 증가시키고 체내 지방의 축적이나 합성을 감소시켜 체중의 증가를 예방하며, 혈중 지질 함량들을 개선하여 항비만 효과가 있는 천연 기능성 식품으로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대할 수 있다.
