초록
고지혈증은 체내 지질대사에 이상이 생겨 혈중의 지질이 비정상적으로 높아진 상태로서, 지질이 필요 이상으로 혈액내 존재하게 되면 혈관벽에 쌓이고 굳어지게 되면서 동맥경화증, 고혈압, 뇌졸중 등의 심혈관계 질환을 일으키기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 고콜레스테롤 식이로 고지혈증을 유도한 생쥐의 동물모델에서 복분자 추출물의 유효성분인 protocatechuic acid(PCA)를 경구 투여하여 PCA의 간손상 보호 효과와 지질 대사함량 변화를 분석함으로써 PCA의 고지혈증 치료에 대한 유의적인임상 효과를 제시하였다. PCA의 투여는 고콜레스테롤 식이에의한 간무게 증가, 비장무게의 증가, 흉선의 위축, 신장의 위축등 장기무게변화에 대하여 회복 효과를 보였고, 혈청 내 간세포손상 마커 GPT 및 GOT의 회복 효과를 나타내었으며, 혈청 내총콜레스테롤, 중성지방, HDL, LDL의 지질대사산물의 profile에서도 유의적인 회복효과를 보였다. 특히, PCA의 투여군에서는 혈중 HDL의 농도를 정상식이군 수준으로 높이고, LDL의 농도를 크게 낮추는 효과를 나타냄으로써 HDL/LDL의 균형유지에 역할을 나타내는 것으로 보이며 이러한 효과는 simvastatin의 HDL/LDL 조절 효과와는 다른 패턴을 보이고 있다. 따라서PCA는 단독으로 고지혈증 치료의 기능성 소재로써의 개발 가능성뿐만 아니라, 합성의약품 simvastatin 등의 스타틴계 약물의보조제로써의 개발 가능성을 제시한다.
Abstract
Rubus coreanus has been used as a traditional medicine in Asia because of its various pharmacological properties. This study examined the effects of protocatechuic acid (PCA), one of phenolic compounds derived from R. coreanus on the lipid metabolism in high cholesterol diet-induced mice. A total of 30 male C57BL/6 mice were divided into 5 groups with 6 mice in each group as follows: (1) Control mice received normal diet (ND). (2) Mice received high-cholesterol diet (HCD) plus water, 10% sucrose solution and treated daily oral phosphate-buffered-saline (PBS) of equal volumes through gavage. (3) Mice received HCD and treated daily with 25 ㎎/㎏ b.w./day of PCA (4) with 50 ㎎/㎏ b.w./day or (5) with 10 ㎎/㎏ b.w./day of simvastatin via oral gavage for 12 weeks. Body weights were measured weekly for a period of experiment. After treatment, liver, thymus, spleen and kidney were harvested and weighed, and the lipid metabolite profiles (total cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c) and liver-damaging markers (GOT and GPT) in serum were examined. PCA significantly reduced the total cholesterol, TG, LDL-c level and increased the HDL-c level. PCA administration also significantly reduced the levels of GOT and GPT. These results indicate that the PCA could be used as a functional material for lowering lipid and an adjuvant for the treatment of hyperlipemia.
