To develop a new Gugija(Lycium chinensis Mill) product having increased value, the physiological functionality of various commercial Gugija products were investigated. In addition, an in vivo study was performed using spontaneous hypertensive rats(SHR) to examine the anti-hypertension effects of products. The results showed that antioxidant activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija leaf pickle(97.7%), and anti-hypertensive angiotensin I -converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity was 80.4% in Gugija doenjang(soybean paste) water extract. Anti-cholesterolemia HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory activity was highest in the methanol extract of Gugija rice cake(66.1 %). However, SOD-like activity was below 30% in most products; and fibrinolytic activity was not detected or was very weak. Ultimately, we selected Gugija tea and Gugija wine as superior anti-hypertensive Gugija products, and subsequent in vivo testing was performed using SHR, comparing the tea and wine to Gugija fruit. Among them, the Gugija fruit demonstrated the best anti-hypertension effects in SHR.

This study was conducted to investigate the antioxidant activity, fibrinolytic activity and cytotoxic effect of Korean traditional noble rice wine made using different methods (A-C) and commercial rice wine (D-H) on various tumor cell lines. The antioxidant activity of rice wine was measured by DPPH (2,2-dipicryl-1-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS [2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid)] and NO (nitric oxide) radical scavenging assay. In this study, Samhaeju showed the greatest fibrinolytic activity of 13-17U and exhibited the highest antioxidant activity. Among the different Samhaeju, the sample prepared using method C had the highest antioxidant activity. The cytotoxic effect of rice wine were also examined against the human cancer cell line (A549 cells and HeLa cells) based on the results of a WST-1 assay and morphological changes. Rice wine induced the inhibition of cell proliferation and morphological changes in tumor cell lines in a concentration-dependent manner, with Samhaeju diluted 10 fold having the strongest effect on these factors. These findings suggest that Korean rice wine has antioxidant activity and cytotoxic effect, and that these factors are influenced by the method of preparation.

Makgeolli is Korean traditional alcoholic beverage that has historically been brewed. In this study, we analyzed the profile of organic acids in makgeolli and also evaluated its physiological characteristics. Makgeolli contained excess lactic acid, which is produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Anti-obesity effects of makgeolli were investigated in 3T3- L1 preadipocytes. Compared to the negative control, makgeolli inhibited the differentiation of preadipocyte as quantified by Oil red O dye. In particular, 100 μg/mL makgeolli reduced 40 to 70% of differentiation. To evaluate the anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of makgeolli, we performed chorioallantoic membrane assay and measured nitric oxide production from lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells. Most makgeolli interrupted the formation of neo-vasculature and significantly inhibited NO production in a dose-dependent manner. Taken together, these findings suggest that commercial makgeolli has inhibitory activities against adipogenesis, neo-vascularization, and inflammation, and also they are influenced by second metabolites from nuruk microflora containing fungi and LAB.

A new health paradigm may be evolving that would place emphasis on the positive aspects of diet, identifying components that are physiologically active and that contribute to the prevention of disease onset. It has been increasingly difficult to evaluate the impact of new bioactive materials and food products on the well being of society. Thus, testing systems for both health function and toxicity have become very elaborate, complex, and interrelated, making their interpretation difficult and open to controversy. To select the proper starting materials, to screen the appropriate health functionality and to determine the efficacy of product, a reliable, reproducible, sensitive and predictive assay is required. Particularly, in uitro assay is the first stage in preclinical test on physiologically active materials and have many advantages in terms of time, cost and convenience. However, several factors as well as some limitations should be considered in this assay system. This presentation, therefore, will address the use of in uitro assays for evaluating physiological functionality of foods coupled with general consideration.

A. adeninivorans WSC6-3 and S. dispora JTS19-1 grew well in 40% glucose-containing YPD medium and V. fragicola SW-9 in 5% NaCl-containing YPD medium. The supernatant of A. adeninivorans WSC6-3, F. taiwaniana JRC6-2, and V. fragicola SW-9 exhibited 58.0, 59.0, and 59.0% of glucoamylase activity, respectively. C. sorboxylosa WSC25-4 also produced extracellular alkaline protease. Antioxidant activity of the supernatant from F. taiwanian JRC6-2 was high (79.8%), while the other five unrecorded yeasts demonstrated elevated antiaging superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity (99%). Anti-gout xanthin oxidase inhibitory activity of S. dispora JTS19-1 and V. fragicola SW-9 was also elevated at 79 and 80%, respectively.

본 연구에서는 전통 방식으로 제조된 6개 지역의 누룩에서 곰팡이 17주를 분리하여 glucoamylase 활성이 우수한 곰팡이(Aspergillus glaucus HN-WD, Lichtheimia ramosa KJ-WF, Aspergillus oryzae SU-Y, Lichtheimia panacisoli SU-BF, Aspergillus niger JA-B) 5종을 최종 선발하였다. 최적 생육특성은 대체로 28-35℃와 pH 5에서 생육이 양호하였고 모두 내산성을 보였다. 유해세균에 대한 곰팡이 5주의 생육저해를 확인하여 항균활성은 Salmonella typhimurium(57.9-71.4%)과 Staphylococcus aureus (57.5-70.0%)에 비교적 효과적이었다. 항고혈압 활성은 양성대조군과 비교하여 ACE 저해 활성으로 98.9-99.6% 수준의 혈압저하 활성을 나타냈고, 84.7-91.9%로 비교적 높은 혈전용해 활성을 확인하였다. 곰팡이 5주의 항당뇨 효과는 α-amyloglucosidase 저해 활성이 0.5% acarbose의 20.4%에서 26.6% 수준으로 확인되었다. Raw 264.7 cell에 LPS를 처리하여 2종 이상의 사이토카인 생성량 감소가 확인된 균주는 Lichtheimia ramosa KJ-WF, Aspergillus oryzae SU-Y, Lichtheimia panacisoli SU-BF였으며, 특히 Lichtheimia panacisoli SU-BF는 항염증 효과가 가장 우수한 균주로 나타났다. 이처럼 전통 누룩에서 분리 및 선발된 유용 곰팡이의 생육특성과 다양한 생리기능성을 종합적으로 확인한 결과, 곰팡이 5주에서 확인된 기능성을 바탕으로 식품 제조, 의약품 등의 산업에서 유용 기능성 소재로 활용 가치가 높을 것이라 생각된다.

Fungi were isolated and identified from nuruk produced in six regions, and the growth characteristics and various physiological functions of the five selected strains were investigated. These fungi exhibited optimum growth characteristics at 28-35℃ and pH 5, and were acid resistant. The antibacterial activity of the five fungi against four types of harmful bacteria was determined using Salmonella typhimurium (57.9-71.4%) and Staphylococus aureus (57.5-70.0%), respectively. The antihypertensive activity showed ACE inhibitory activity of 98.9-99.6% and relatively high thrombolytic activity of 84.7-91.9%, compared to the positive control. The antidiabetic effect of five strains of the fungus showed α-amyloglucosidase inhibitory activity ranging from 20.4 to 26.6% of 0.5% acarbose. The fungi (Lichtheimia ramosa KJ-WF, Aspergillus oryzae SU-Y, and Lichtheimia panacisoli SU-BF) were confirmed to reduce the production of two or more types of cytokines by treating Raw 264.7 cells with LPS. In particular, Lichtheimia panacisoli SU-BF exhibited the best anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, the five strains of fungus showed potential to be used as a functional material in food manufacturing and pharmaceuticals industries.

전통 된장의 숙성기간 중 기능적 특성의 변화를 조사하기 위하여 상황버섯 추출물을 이용하여 된장을 담금하여 일정기간 숙성한 후, 된장의 protease 활성, 항돌연변이 활성, isoflavone 등을 측정하였다. Protease의 활성은 상황버섯 추출물을 이용한 실험구가 3.15 unit/mL로 대조구보다 높은 활성을 나타내었으며 tyrosinase의 저해 활성과 ACE 저해 활성은 실험구가 각각 45.78%와 55.18%로 대조구보다 약 20% 이상 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 항돌연변이 활성은 실험구가 S. enterica serovar Typhimurium TA100을 사용한 경우 변이원 MNNG와 NPD에 대한 항돌연변이 활성은 각각 90.42%와 82.57%, S. enterica serovar Typhimurium TA98을 사용한 경우 변이원 NPD와 NQO에 대한 항돌연변이 활성은 각각 60.28%와 50.33%로 대조구보다 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 수소 공여능은 실험구의 활성이 86.65%로 대조구의 61.69%보다 높게 나타났다. 상황버섯 추출물을 이용하여 제조한 된장의 isoflavon 중 glucoside인 daidzin은 실험구가 35.49 mg/kg높게 나타났으며 genistin은 실험구와 대조구 모두에서 검출되지 않았다. Aglycone인 daidzein과 genistein은 각각 263.01 mg/kg와 262.60 mg/kg로 대조구 보다 높은 함량을 나타내었다.

To evaluate changes in functional characteristics of traditional Doenjang during aging, Doenjang was prepared using an extract of Phellinus linteus (Phellinus extract). Control Doenjang was aged without the extract. The protease activity of Doenjang prepared with Phellinus extract was 3.15 units/mL. Tyrosinase and acetylcholinesterase inhibition activities were 45.78% and 55.18% of control, respectively, in the treated sample. When Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium TA100 was used as a reporter strain, antimutagenic activities against the mutagens MNNG and NPD were 90.42% and 82.57% of control values in the treated sample. When S. enterica serovar Typhimurium TA98 was used, antimutagenic activities were 60.28% and 50.33% of control, respectively. Hydrogen-donating activity was 86.65% in the treated sample, which was higher than that of the control (61.69%). Daidzin (an isoflavon glucoside) levels in Doenjang prepared with Phellinus extract were higher, by 35.49 mg/kg, than the control, whereas genistin was not detected in either group. Daidzin and genistin aglycone levels were 263.01 mg/kg and 262.60 mg/kg in the control and test groups, respectively.
