Abstract

Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine whether Hamcho freeze-dried powder and Hamcho freeze-dried nano powder have an anti-obese effect on high fat diet-induced obese rats. Methods: Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 6 different groups, each of which was bred for 8 weeks with a different experimental diet: normal diet group (NC), high fat diet group (HFC), high fat diet + 2% Salicornia herbacea L. freeze-dried powder group (2% HS), high fat diet + 5% Salicornia herbacea L. freeze-dried powder group (5%HS), high fat diet + 1% Salicornia herbacea L. freeze-dried nano powder group (1% HSN), high fat diet + 2% Salicornia herbacea L. freeze-dried nano powder group (2% HSN). Results: The 5% HS group showed a weight loss effect in body weight, liver and adipose tissue by reducing the amount of dietary intake and food efficiency ratio. In addition, the 5% HS group showed a significant reduction of serum leptin concentration, while having a beneficial effect on the improvement of lipid metabolism such as increase the serum concentration of adiponectin. However, Hamcho freeze-dried nano powder did not show a weight loss effect. Conclusion: Overall data indicated that Hamcho seemed to have anti-obesity effects. In particular, consumption of 5% Hamcho freeze-dried powder might have beneficial effects on body weight, serum adiponectin level, and lipid profiles since it led to reduced body weight and growth of adipose tissues by suppressing dietary intakes. However conduct of further research studies is needed for analysis of active components and biochemical action mechanism of Hamcho.

본 연구에서는 한국산 함초 (Salicornia herbacea L.)인 퉁퉁마디의 항비만 효과를 알아보고자 동물실험을 실시하였다. 함초 동결건조 분말 및 함초 동결건조 나노화 분말의 항비만 효과를 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 최종체중은 5% 함초 동결건조 분말을 섭취한 5% HS군이 HFC군에 비해 유의하게 감소하였으며, NC군보다도 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 식이섭취량은 NC군에 비하여 고지방식이 섭취군 (HFC, 2% HS, 5% HS, 1% HSN)에서 유의적으로 감소하였고, 5% 함초 동결건조 분말을 섭취한 5% HS군은 고지방식이군보다 유의적으로 식이섭취량이 낮았다. 2) 간 무게는 고지방식이의 영향으로 NC군에 비하여 모든 고지방식이 섭취군에서 유의하게 증가하였고, 5% 함초 동결건조 분말 섭취군은 HFC군과 비교해 유의하게 낮았다. 부고환 지방조직의 무게 역시 왼쪽/오른쪽 모두 5% 함초 동결건조 분말 섭취군에서 HFC군에 비해 유의하게 낮았으며, NC군보다도 유의적으로 수치가 낮았다. 3) 혈청 중성지질 농도는 NC군이 모든 고지방식이 섭취군에 비해 유의하게 높았으며, 혈청 총 콜레스테롤 농도는 2% HS군을 제외한 모든 고지방식이군에서 NC군에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 그러나, 혈청 중성지질, 총 콜레스테롤, LDL-콜레스테롤 및 HDL-Cholesterol 농도 모두 HFC군과 비교하여 함초 섭취에 따른 유의한 차이가 없었다. 4) 간 조직의 중성지질과 총 콜레스테롤 농도는 NC군에 비하여 모든 고지방식이 섭취군에서 유의적으로 증가하였다 (p < 0.05). HFC군은 함초 섭취군과 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 5% 함초 동결건조 분말 섭취군의 중성 지질과 총 콜레스테롤 농도는 HFC군에 비해 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 5) 간 세포질 중 FAS 농도의 경우 NC군이 모든 고지방식이 섭취군에 비해 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 함초분말섭취에 따른 유의한 차이는 없었다. 6) 혈청 leptin 농도는 HFC군에 비해 모든 함초 섭취군에서 leptin의 수치가 낮게 나타나는 경향이 보였다. 특히 5% HS군은 HFC군에 비해 leptin 농도가 유의적으로 감소하였다. 혈청 adiponectin 농도는 NC군이 모든 고지방식이섭취군에 비해 유의적으로 높았으며, 5% 함초 동결건조 분말 섭취군의 경우 HFC군 비해 그 농도가 증가하는 경향이 나타났으나 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 이상의 실험 결과에서 고지방식이와 함께 섭취한 5% 함초 동결건조 분말은 식이섭취량을 줄여 체중, 간 및 지방조직의 무게를 감소하였고, 혈중 leptin 농도를 유의적으로 감소시켰으며, 혈중 adiponectin 농도를 증가시키는 경향을 보이는 등 지질대사 개선에 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 이러한 결과는 함초의 식이조절 및 지질개선 건강기능성소재 개발 가능성을 제시한 것으로 생각된다.
