The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-apoptosis-related protein expression in skeletal muscle of rats with different amount of mountain ginseng (MG) added high-fat diet fed. Twenty-four Sprague Dawley male rats were divided into the high-fat diet control group (CON), 0.5% of MG added diet group (MG1), and 1.0% of MG added diet group (MG2) with eight rats each. The P53, anti-apoptotic protein, was significantly lower in MG2 than CON and MG1. The bcl-2 and bcl-xl, however, were not significantly different from MG1 but from CON. The caspase-9 and -3, were significantly lower in MG groups than CON. In addition, it was dramatically lower in MG2. These results suggested that MG addition to the high-fat diet suppressed p53 protein expression and enhanced anti-apoptototic protein expression. MG may be a positive effects on health as a medicinal plant.
