Abstract

In this study, Momordica charantia (MC) fermented with Leuconostoc mesenteroides (MC-LM) were assessed for the antioxidant and the antidiabetic activities. Antioxidant activities of MC and MC-LM were evaluated using 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)(ABTS) radical. Although MC-treated groups showed little activity, 47% of activity was observed at $500{\mu}g/mL$ concentration for MC-LM and increased significantly(p<0.05) as MC-LM concentration increased. MC-LM more effectively inhibited the oxidative damage of DNA by peroxyl radical than MC and the inhibition of the strand breakage increased significantly as MC-LM concentration increased(p<0.05). Measuring the inhibition of ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ activity, which is closely related to the regulation of blood sugar, resulted in MC reduced the activity of ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ by 30% at 8 mg/mL and MC-LM at the same concentration by 60%. In addition, the effect of MC-LM on the cell viability of alloxan-treated RIN-m5F resulted in a significant increase in cell survival(p<0.05) in the group treated with MC-LM and a 20% increase in the concentration of $1000{\mu}g/mL$. As a result of insulin secretion by alloxan-treated RIN-m5F cell, the level of insulin secretion tended to increase in all group treated with MC-LM. At the concentration of $1000{\mu}g/mL$, the insulin secretion was increased by 15% in MC-LM group than in MC group. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that fermented bitter gourd has antioxidant and antidiabetic effects.

여주(Momordica charantia) 열수 추출물을 젖산균(Leuconostoc mesenteroidesies)으로 발효하여 얻은 생산물의 항산화 및 항당뇨 효과를 관찰하였다. 여주 발효물(MC-LM)과 여주 추출물(MC)의 항산화 활성은 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)(ABTS) radical 소거 측정법을 사용하여 관찰하였다. MC 처리군은 radical 소거활성이 거의 나타나지 않았으나 MC-LM의 경우 $500{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 47%의 활성이 관찰되었으며 MC-LM의 농도가 증가함에 따라 활성이 유의하게(p<0.05) 증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. MC-LM은 MC에 비해 peroxyl radical에 의한 DNA의 산화적 손상을 더 효과적으로 억제하였으며 MC-LM의 농도가 증가함에 따라 strand breakage의 억제가 유의적으로 증가 하였다(p<0.05). 혈당량과 밀접한 관련이 있는 ${\alpha}-glucosidase$의 활성 억제정도를 측정한 결과 MC는 8 mg/mL 농도에서 ${\alpha}-glucosidase$의 활성을 30.1% 감소시켰고 같은 농도에서 MC-LM은 58.9% 감소 시켰다. 또한 alloxan에 의한 RIN-m5F 췌장세포 사멸에 발효물의 영향을 관찰한 결과 MC-LM을 농도별로 처리한 군에서 세포생존율이 유의적으로(p<0.05) 증가하였으며 $1000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 MC군 보다 20% 높게 증가되었다. Alloxan에 의한 ${\beta}-cell$파괴를 유도하여 RIN-m5F cell이 분비한 인슐린의 측정결과 MC-LM을 농도별로 첨가한 모든 군에서 인슐린 분비능이 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, $1000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 MC군 보다 15% 높게 증가되었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 관찰된 결과들을 통해 여주 발효물은 항산화 및 항당뇨 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
