Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a hepatic function improver, composed of protamine or a mineral acid salt thereof and capable of improving deterioration in hepatic function and recovering the amounts of blood insulin, albumin and hepatic glycogen to the normal values. CONSTITUTION:A hepatic function improver containing protamine or a mineral acid salt thereof. The protamine may be any of free protamine extracted from testes of fishes such as salmon, herring or oceanic bonito and mineral salt thereof. The aforementioned protamine and mineral salt thereof are solely used or blended in foods, beverages, etc., and can be ingested in an amount of <=500mg/day expressed in terms of the protamine to improve deteriorated hepatic function.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a liver function improving agent. More specifically, the present invention relates to a liver function-improving agent comprising protamine that prevents a decline in liver function or fatty liver caused by drinking or the like.

[Prior Art] The number of people with liver disease in Japan is increasing year by year, and alcoholic liver disease in particular tends to get worse due to the toxicity of alcohol itself and malnutrition caused by heavy drinking.

In general, long-term drinking causes a decrease in protein intake, leading to abnormal nutritional status, even if energy intake is sufficient. In addition, abnormalities in endocrine metabolism lead to a significant decrease in insulin secretion. This decrease in insulin secretion suppresses protein synthesis in the liver, and as a result, fatty liver is induced.

Furthermore, when albumin synthesis is significantly suppressed by drinking alcohol, amino acids that are not used for protein synthesis are converted into sugars and fats. Therefore, it is considered that it is not preferable for the in vivo utilization of amino acids.

更に、飲酒は、肝グリコーゲン量が、インシュリンの分

Furthermore, drinking alcohol reduces the amount of glycogen in the liver due to decreased insulin secretion, weakening the resistance of liver function and making it more likely to cause liver disease.

Currently, prevention and treatment of alcoholic liver disease are
Symptomatic treatment is limited to alcohol restriction and a high-protein, high-energy, high-vitamin diet.

総合的な予防あるいは肝機能改善剤が必要とされている
In addition, the causes of alcoholic liver disease are complex and diverse;
If prolonged, it can progress to liver cirrhosis, which has a high mortality rate.
Comprehensive prevention or liver function improving agents are needed.

The present inventors have demonstrated that when Proguyon, a basic protein rich in arginine that is present in the testes of fish and shellfish, is administered to rats along with standard food, liver function decreased by drinking can be restored. It was found that blood insulin, albumin, and liver glycogen levels, which are indicators of liver function, returned to normal values.
