초록

연근 에탄올 추출물이 알코올 투여로 유발된 간 손상에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 흰쥐에게 기본식이군 (BD), 알코올 투여군 (ET), 기본식이와 연근 에탄올 추출물 저용량 (200 mg/kg) 투여군 (BD-LREL), 기본식이와 연근 에탄올 추출물 고용량 (400 mg/kg) 투여군 (BD-LREH), 알코올과 연근 에탄올 추출물 저용량 (200 mg/kg) 병합 투여군 (ET-LREL) 및 알코올과 연근 에탄올 추출물 고용량 (400 mg/kg) 병합 투여군 (ET-LREH)의 6군으로 나누어 6주간 사육하였다. 체중증가량은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 감소되었으나 유의차가 없었다. 알코올과 연근 에탄올 추출물 저용량 (ET-LREL)과 고용량 (ET-LREH) 병합 투여군은 알코올 투여로 감소된 체중을 기본식이군 (BD)에 근접하게 증가시켰다. 식이효율은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 유의하게 저하되었으나, 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)을 제외한 모든 실험군의 식이효율은 유사하였다. 알코올 투여로 증가된 혈청 중 AST, ALT 및 ALP 활성은 연근 에탄올 추출물 경구 투여로 저하되었다. 간조직 중 XO 활성은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 유의하게 증가되었고 연근 에탄올 추출물 투여로 알코올 투여로 증가된 XO 활성을 용량 의존적으로 감소시켰다. 간조직 중 SOD와 GSH-Px 활성은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 현저히 증가되었는데 이는 알코올 투여로 생성된 활성 산소를 소거하려는 생리 적응 현상으로 사료되며, 연근 에탄올 추출물 투여로 SOD 활성이 용량 의존적으로 유의하게 감소하였다. 간조직 중 catalase 활성도 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 유의하게 증가되었으나 연근 에탄올 추출물 투여로 증가된 활성을 용량 의존적으로 감소시켰지만 유의차는 없었다. 간조직 중 GSH 함량은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 유의하게 감소되었으며, 알코올과 연근 에탄올 추출물 고용량 투여군 (ET-LREH)은 알코올 투여로 감소된 GSH 함량을 기본식이군 (BD)에 근접토록 증가시켰다. 간조직 중 과산화지질 함량은 알코올 단독 투여군 (ET)이 기본식이군 (BD)에 비하여 증가되었으나, 알코올과 연근 에탄올 추출물 고용량 병합 투여군 (ET-LREH)은 알코올 투여로 증가된 과산화지질 함량을 유의하게 저하시켰다. 이상의 결과 연근 에탄올 추출물은 알코올 투여로 증가된 혈청 AST, ALT 및 ALP 활성과 간조직의 과산화지질 함량, XO, SOD, GSH-Px 및 catalase 활성을 저하시켜 알코올로 유도된 지방간 및 손상된 간조직을 보호하는 항산화효과가 있는 것으로 추정된다.

Abstract

This study investigated the hepatoprotective effects of an ethanol extract of lotus root (LRE) on alcohol-induced liver damage in rat. Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 100~150 g, were divided into 6 groups: basal diet group (BD), alcohol (35%, 10 mL/kg/day) treated group (ET), LRE 200 mg/kg/day treated group (BD-LREL), LRE 400 mg/kg/day treated group (BD-LREH), LRE 200 mg/kg/day and alcohol treated group (ET-LREL), and LRE 400 mg/kg/day and alcohol treated group (ET-LREH). After the administration, rats were sacrificed to get serum and liver to analyze antioxidant enzyme activity, glutathione and lipid peroxide contents. The body weight gain and feed efficiency ratio were decreased by alcohol administration, however, were gradually increased to a little lower level than the basal diet group by the combined administration of alcohol and LRE. The serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), asparate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities that were elevated by alcohol were significantly decreased by LRE administration. It was also observed that thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) content, xanthine oxidase (XO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities in liver that were increased by alcohol, were markedly decreased in the combined alcohol and LRE administered groups as compared with the alcohol administrated group. These effects of LRE within the alcohol groups were in a dose-dependent manner. The glutathione (GSH) content in liver was decreased by alcohol administration, however, increased after administering LRE. Taken together, these results suggest that ethanol extract of lotus root may have a possible protective effect on liver function in hepatotoxicity-induced rat by alcohol administration.
