초록

피막이(Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides Lam.)는 산형과(Araliaceae)의 여러해살이 초본이다. 생약명은 천호유, 예초, 계장초, 변지금으로 한방에서 사용하고 있다. 이 식물의 잎과 줄기로부터 열수 추출물을 이용하여 항산화, 환원력, 리폭시게나아제(lipoxygenase) 저해활성을 조사하였다. 하이드록시 라디칼(-OH)은 거대분자, 탄수화물, 핵산, 지질, 단백질에 유해한 작용을 나타내는데 피막이의 잎 추출물은 8.0 mg/ml 농도일 때 78.6%의 저해활성을 나타내었다. 1, 1- diphenyl 2-picrylhyorazyl (DPPH)은 인체 내 항산화에 잘 알려진 라디칼로 피막이풀의 하이드록시 라디칼 활성 저해는 8.0 mg/ml농도일 때 86.0%였다. 다중불포화지방산 대사 효소에 관여하는 Lipoxygenases (LOXs)의 활성 저해는 8.0 mg/ml농도일 때 55.5%였다. 50%저해를 나타내는 농도(IC50)를 산출할 때 OH 활성, DPPH 활성, LOX 저해에 대해 각각 5.23 mg/ml, 6.44 mg/ml, 3.71 mg/ml이였다. 피막이 잎과 줄기 추출물은 강한 환원력을 나타내었다. 이런 피막이의 항산화 및 환원력 활성, LOX의 높은 저해율, 강환 환원력은 약리학적 소재로 좋은 후보가 될 수 있을 것이다.

영어초록

In this study the hot water extract was prepared from Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides (Araliaceae) leaves and stems to study antioxidant activities and lipoxygenase inhibition. The extract showed the protective hydroxyl radical (-OH) which can damage virtually all types of macromolecules: carbohydrates, nucleic acids (mutations), lipids (lipid peroxidation), and amino acids. Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of H. sibthorpioides was 78.6%. The extract showed strong activity against 1, 1- diphenyl 2-picrylhyorazyl (DPPH) which is a well-known radical and a trap (scavenger) for other radicals. DPPH scavenging activity of leaves of H. sibthorpioides was evaluated at 8.0 mg/ml was 86.0%. Lipoxygenases (LOXs) constitute a heterogeneous family of lipid peroxidizing enzymes capable of oxygenating polyunsaturated fatty acids to their corresponding hydroperoxy derivatives. The inhibitory effect of 15- LOX by H. sibthorpioides was assayed using a Morgan microplate assay. The extract of H. sibthorpioides was 55.5% inhibitory effects on the inhibition of LOX at 8.0 mg/ml. The IC50 values for OH activity, DPPH activity, and LOX inhibition from leaves 5.23 mg/ml, 6.44 mg/ml, and 3.71 mg/ml, respectively. Antioxidative activity assay showed that the water extracts from leaf and stem had a strong reducing power. These results show that H. sibthorpioides has some phytochemical constituents which may be active against the free radicals (OH and DPPH) and lipoxygenase enzyme.
