To elucidate the effect of antioxidant complex containing $\beta-carotene$, vitamin E, vitamin C, Ginkgo Biloba leaf extract and selenium on oxygen :tree radical production and detoxification system, rats were fed normal diet and normal diet with antioxidant complex 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.5% for 3 weeks. Feed efficiency ratio, changes in body weight, weight gain and amounts of feces of rat are similar in four groups. Liver weight per body weight and hepatic lipid peroxide weight increased in 0.5% group. However, hepatic glutathione contents in all antioxidant complex added groups were significantly increased compare with normal control group. On the other hand, the activity of xanthine oxidase was a little increased due to the amounts of antioxidant complex. Superoxide dismutase and gutathione peroxidase activity of 0.1% antioxidant complex added group were increased about $10{\sim}20%$ in comparison to normal control group. These results suggest that the supplementation of antioxidant complex 0.1% to basal diet may reduce the hepatic damage caused by free radicals.

This study was performed to examine the change of lipid metabolism and immune function caused by antioxidant material in hypercholesterolemic elderly women (serum total cholesterol $\geq$200 mg/dI). The subjects were 51 elderly women aged over 60 yrs. They were divided into antioxidant nutrients complex group (n = 25) and spirulina group (n= 26). Antioxidant nutrients complex (1 capsule/day) and spirulina (7.5 mg/day) were used for intervention for 8weeks. All the subjects were fully informed the purpose of study and gave written consents to participate in this study. Dietary intakes, anthropometric indices and blood assessment for lipid, immune function and antioxidant status were measured before and after supplementation. Either antioxidant nutrients complex or spirulina supplementation for 8weeks resulted in improved antioxidant status evidence by increased TAS (total antioxidant status) and decreased TB-ARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) . This intervention led to decreased serum levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, oxLDL, apolipoprotein B, IL-6 and IL-6 production by peripheral blood lymphocyte. In conclusion, the lipid profiles, immune function and antioxidant capacity were improved after either antioxidant nutrient complex or spirulina supplementation for hypercholesterolemic women. Therefore, improving antioxidant status using supplemen-tation could provide means of controlling cardiovascular disease in Korean elderly people.

According to previous reports, antioxidant activities of Codonopsis lanceolata could be increased by a steaming process. This study was performed to improve its antioxidant activity and skin whitening activities of C. lanceolata by high pressure and stepwise steaming complex process. The complex processed C. lanceolata showed highest free radical scavenging acitivity as 45.21%, and for phenol and flavonoid contents, complex processed C. lanceolata contained higher than those from conventional extraction process or steaming process alone. The Cytotoxicity of all C. lanceolata extracts also showed low cytotoxicity against human fibroblast cell (CCD-986sk) as 4.49 ~ 10.40%. In whitening activity, high inhibition of tyrosinase activity was estimated as 25.08% by adding the extracts from complex process. We found that whitening and antioxidant activity of complex processed C. lancolata extract was higher than those obtained from conventional extraction and a steaming process because various kinds of antioxidant compounds could be easily released by combined process, compared to one of each process.

Hesperetin은 Hesperidin에서 유도되는 강한 항산화 기능의 플라보노이드 비당체이다. 본 연구에서는 Hesperetin과 이의 Cyclodextrin 포접 복합체에 대하여 항산화, 항염증 및 항균 활성을 비교하였다. Hesperetin은 Hesperidin에 효소처리하여 제조되었으며, Hesperetin/Cyclodextrin 포접체는 용매 증류법에 의해 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 및 Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin을 사용하여 제조되었다. Hesperetin에 비해 Hesperetin/Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체의 용해도는 93.5배 증가하였고, Hesperetin/𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체의 용해도는 22.5배 증가하였다. 항산화 분석에서 Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체는 Hesperetin과 유사한 라디칼 소거 활성능을 보인 반면, 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체는 Hesperetin 보다 약간 낮은 활성을 나타내었다. RAW 264.7 세포에 대한 세포독성은 Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체, 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체, Hesperetin의 순으로 세포독성이 낮았다. Hesperetin과 Cyclodextrin 포접체는 모두 세포내 산화질소(NO), 종양괴사인자-𝛼(TNF-𝛼) 및 인터루킨-6(IL-6)과 같은 염증 매개체를 감소시켰다. Hesperetin 및 Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체는 상대적으로 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체 보다 더 효과적이었다. 피부 유해성 세균인 황색 포도상구균과 녹농균에 대해 억제 효과를 시험한 결과, 황색 포도상구균에 대해서는 Hesperetin = Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체 > 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체의 순서로 항균 효과를 나타내었으나, 녹농균에 대해서는 뚜렷한 억제효과를 나타내지 않았다. 결론적으로, Hesperidin의 비당체 형태인 Hesperetin과 이의 Cyclodextrin 포접체는 다양한 생물학적 활성을 보여주었으며, 용해도가 높은 Hydroxypropyl-𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체가 𝛽-Cyclodextrin 포접체에 비해 상대적으로 더 높은 활성을 나타내었다.

Arginyl-fructose (AF) and arginyl-fructosyl-glucose (AFG) were chemically synthesized and purified. Their in vitro and cellular antioxidant activity was investigated using oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and cellular antioxidant activity assay, respectively. The peroxyl radical scavenging activity of AF was much higher than that of AFG, which was in good agreement with their reduction capacity to donate electrons or hydrogen atoms. On the other hand, the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of AF was weaker than that of AFG, which was consistent with their metal chelating activity, suggesting that AFG-$Cu^{2+}$ complex may be less redox-active than AF-$Cu^{2+}$ complex due to 1 glucose molecule attached. The cellular antioxidant activity of AF and AFG appeared to depend on both their permeability into cell membrane and the scavenging activity on peroxyl or hydroxyl radicals. These results indicate that AF and AFG, Maillard reaction products, may have a high potential as a material for the development of nutraceutical food with antioxidant activity.

CD의 inclusion complex 형성능을 이용하여 대표적인 polyphenol계 천연 항산화 물질인 quercertin 및 catechin을 안정화시키는 분자 캡슐화 기술을 연구하였다. 먼저 ${\alpha}-,\;{\beta}-$, 그리고 ${\gamma}-CD$의 quercetin 및 catechin의 포접능을 비교하였다. Quercetin/catechin-CD inclusion complex 형성을 DSC thermogram을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 ${\beta}-CD$와의 포접에 따른 저용해성 quercetin과 catechin의 물에 대한 용해도의 변화를 관찰한 결과 inclusion complex 형성 시 용해도가 증가하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. Inclusion complex의 온도 및 pH에 대한 안정성을 검토한 결과 inclusion complex가 원래의 물질보다 높은 항산화능을 유지하였으며 특히 catechin의 안정성이 크게 향상되었다. Catechin-CD inclusion complex의 식품보존제로서의 적합성을 지방산인 linoleic acid를 시료로 검토하기 위하여 저장 중 과산화물가의 변화를 측정한 결과 포접된 catechin이 보다 높은 항산화능을 보였다. 이와 같은 용해도 및 항산화능의 증가로 볼 때 quercetin/catechin-CD inclusion complex는 신선식품의 보존제로 효과적으로 활용될 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

Objectives: This study was designed to experiment with the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of Taraxacum platycarpum H. Dahlstedt, Lonicera japonica Thunberg, and Leonurus japonicus Houtt. complex (TLL) in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell. Methods: The antioxidant activity of TLL was measured by FRAP assay, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of TLL were measured by using standard methods. The anti-inflammatory effects of TLL were measured by NO production, biomarker production (PGE₂, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α), mRNA expression level (iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) and protein expression level (ERK, JNK, p38). Results: Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents in TLL were 58.03±1.02 mg of Gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g and 16.58±0.60 mg of Quercetin equivalents (QE)/g respectively. In FRAP assay, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, a concentration-dependent increase in TLL was observed. To explore antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of TLL, RAW 264.7 cells were treated with TLL and LPS for 24 hours. Cell viability of RAW 264.7 cells were measured by adding EZ-Cytox, It was remarkably increased at 50, 100, 200 ㎍/㎖ concentrations of TLL. NO, ROS, iNOS, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, ERK, JNK and p38 were remarkably decreased at 50, 100, 200 ㎍/㎖ concentrations of TLL compared to the control group. PGE₂ and COX-2 were remarkably decreased at 100, 200 ㎍/㎖ concentrations Conclusion: These results suggest that TLL complex has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate antiaging and antioxidant effects on cultured human skin fibroblast with supercritical fluid extracts of Dendropanax morbifera, Corni fructus and Lycii Fructus. Methods : Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique was applied to extract from three medicinal plants including stem of Dendropanax morbifera, Corni fructus and Lycii Fructus. Antioxidant activity of extract was evaluated by two different assays as 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and super oxide dismutase (SOD) like activities. These extracts were tested for cell viability on HS68 skin fibroblast by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. We investigated the effects of Ultraviolet-B irradiation on cytotoxicity, type 1 collagen, elastin level and oxidative damage in cultured human skin fibroblast (HS68). Recently, many studies have reported that elastin is also involved in inhibiting or repairing wrinkle formation, although collagen is a major factor in the skin wrinkle formation. Results : The extracts obtained dose-dependently increased the scavenging activity on DPPH radical scavenging activity and SOD like activity. The supercritical fluid extracts of complex herbal medicine showed low cytotoxicity as more than 100% cell viability in 100ppm/ml concentration. HS68 fibroblasts were survived 70% at $120mJ/cm^2$ UVB irradiation and treated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha. The levels of aging factors and cytotoxicity were decreased by supercritical fluid extract of complex herbal medicine. Conclusions : These results suggest that supercritical fluid extracts may have value as the potential antioxidant and antiaging medicinal plant.
