Abstract

Lentils (Lens culinaris) have been gaining increasing attention recently as a top five superfood, as they are high in protein and other essential nutrients, including folate, iron, potassium, and various antioxidants. In the present study, phenolic extracts from four different lentil cultivars (green, red, French, and beluga) were evaluated for their total phenolic contents and in vitro antioxidant activities. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of four different lentil extracts were 27.30~30.30 mg tannic acid equivalents (TAE)/g and 13.14~16.29 mg quercetin equivalents (QUE)/g, respectively. Beluga and red lentil extracts showed higher polyphenol contents than others (P<0.05), whereas there was no significant difference in flavonoid contents among the four lentil cultivars. $RC_{50}$ values of the lentil extracts for DPPH radical, ABTS radical, and $H_2O_2$ were $57.42{\sim}64.49{\mu}g/mL$, $66.11{\sim}75.69{\mu}g/mL$, and $59.72{\sim}72.86{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Among the four lentil extracts, beluga lentil extract showed the most potent scavenging effect in all three reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging assays, and thus beluga extract was further tested for its inhibitory effect on early peroxidation of linoleic acid. The results showed that beluga lentil extract significantly inhibited linoleic acid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner (concentration required for 50% reduction=$222.76{\m}g/mL$). In addition, beluga lentil extract showed a significant protective effect against alcohol-induced cytotoxicity in AML-12 cells (normal mouse hepatocyte cell line). Taken together, these results suggest that lentil extracts represent potential sources of natural antioxidants, and further studies will be necessary to determine their protective effects against oxidative stress in vivo.

본 연구에서는 렌틸을 이용한 새로운 기능성 소재의 개발에 우선하여 세계적으로 소비량이 비교적 많은 벨루가, 레드, 그린, 프렌치 렌틸을 연구 소재로 선정하고, 0.2% HCl을 함유한 메탄올을 이용하여 추출물을 제조한 후 이들의 항산화 활성을 조사하였다. 총폴리페놀과 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 27.3~30.3 mg TAE/g과 13.14~16.29 mg QUE/g으로 다양하게 나타났으며, 그중 벨루가와 레드 렌틸이 상대적으로 높은 총폴리페놀 함량을 보였다. DPPH와 ABTS 라디칼 소거 활성 및 $H_2O_2$ 소거 활성은 총폴리페놀 함량이 상대적으로 높았던 벨루가와 레드 렌틸이 다른 품종에 비해 유의적으로 높은 활성을 보였으며, 항산화 활성 및 폴리페놀함량과의 비례적 상관관계가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. ROS 소거 활성이 가장 높았던 벨루가 렌틸을 이용하여 linoleic acid에 대한 과산화 억제 효과를 FTC법으로 조사한 결과, $62.5{\sim}500{\mu}g/mL$에서 농도 의존적으로 유의적인 산화억제효과를 보였으며 $RC_{50}$$222.76{\mu}g/mL$로 확인되었다. 또한, 벨루가 및 레드 렌틸 추출물은 산화적 스트레스 발생을 통해 간세포 손상을 유발하는 것으로 알려진 알코올의 세포독성으로부터 우수한 간세포 보호 효과를 나타내었다. 따라서 향후 추가적인 세포실험과 동물실험을 통한 렌틸의 항산화 활성 검정 및 항산화 기전에 관한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각되며, 이를 비롯한 다양한 생리활성에 대한 연구들이 이루어진다면 기능성 소재로서 렌틸의 산업적 응용이 활발해질 것으로 기대된다.
