Abstract:
PURPOSE: A screening method of compounds specifically controlling transcriptional expression of CPT-1 gene, and a CPT-1 expression enhancer comprising genistein which is screened by the same method are provided, thereby easily screening natural compounds reducing fat of human. CONSTITUTION: The screening method of compounds specifically controlling transcriptional expression of CPT-1 gene comprises the steps of: constructing a recombinant plasmid pCPT-1P-luc containing CPT-1 promoter and luciferase; producing a transformant Huh7 cell line(KCLRF-BP-00090) transformed with the recombinant plasmid pCPT-1P-luc; contacting a compound with the transformant Huh7 cell line(KCLRF-BP-00090); quantification of the signal produced by the contact; and comparing the signal amount measured with that of a control.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: Provided is a controlling agent of Bcl-2 expression which characteristically contains ginsenoside F1(20-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxatriol) represented by the formula(1), as an active ingredient. It prevents apoptosis caused by radiating low doses of ultraviolet rays, while promoting apoptosis when radiating high doses of ultraviolet rays, therefore it removes the risk of cancers. CONSTITUTION: A controlling agent of the expression of Bcl-2 is characterized by containing ginsenoside F1(20-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxatriol), which is represented by the formula(1), as an active ingredient. It inhibits the decrease of Bcl-2 expression caused by radiating ultraviolet rays. Therefore, it prevents apoptosis by the radiation of low doses of ultraviolet rays, but promotes apoptosis by the radiation of high doses of ultraviolet rays.
