Abstract

Radioprotective effects of a red ginseng extracts on antioxidant enzymes(Superoxide dismutase, catalase and peroxidase) activities relationship to lipid peroxidation were studied in the cytosol fraction of mice liver. The experiments were carried out on Irradiated (5.5 Gy, ) and non-irradiated ICR mice after treatment of red ginseng extracts (5.5mg/mouse ; ip), In wholebody irradiated mice, irradiation caused a decrease in the activity of all these enzymes(on Day 21) The activities of SOD, Catalase and Peroxidase of red ginseng extracts treated mice were enhanced by and , compared with non-treated mice. The red ginseng extracts led to inhibited increase of malondialdehyde product by ionizing radiation. The enhanced activity of enzymes that removed free radicals generated by radiation and thereby indicate that ginseng probably plays on important role in radioprotective effect.
