본 실험에서는 동양에서 예로부터 민간요법이나 한방에서 주로 많이 쓰여지고 있는 8가지 종류의 한약재에 대해서 면역억제제로써 사용 가능성을 실험하였다. 그 결과 당귀, 산사, 어성초, 오가피, 황기의 추출물은 동종항원에 반응하는 순수분리 T세포의 증식을 농도 의존적으로 억제시켰다. 또한 이들 T세포의 증식에 있어서 필수적인 IL-2를 포함한 cytokine 즉, IL-2, IL-4, IL-10, IFN-γ의 생산량은 대조군에 비해 실험군에서 유의한 차이가 없었고 특히 T세포 증식에 필수적인 IL-2의 생산량의 변화가 거의 없었다. 이는 한약재에 의한 T세포의 증식억제 효과가 T세포증식에 필수적인 IL-2의 생산량을 억제하기 때문에 일어나는 결과가 아님을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 T세포의 살세포작용 억제를 직접적으로 측정하기 위하여 세포내 LDH의 양을 조사한 결과 모든 대조군에서 50%이상의 살세포작용 억제가 일어났고, 그중 특히 오가피와 황기에서는 100% 살세포작용 억제가 일어났다. 따라서 본 실험에 사용된 당귀, 산사, 어성초, 오가피, 황기 등의 5가지 약재가 부작용 없는 면역억제로써 사용 가능성이 높은 것으로 생각된다. In this experiment, we showed the immunosuppressive effects of herbal plant extracts on the alloantigen reactive proliferation and cytotoxicity. The extracts of Angelica gigas, Crataegus pinnatifida, Houttuynia cordata, Acanthopanax sessiliflorum and Astragalus membranaceus markedly suppressed on the pro- liferation of primary T cells stimulated with allogeneic spleen cells in a dose-dependent manner. The production of IL-2, IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 in the alloreactive primary T cells showed no significant difference in the presence or absence of herbal plants extracts. Also the result of mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR)-induced cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) showed what is above a certain point 50% inhibition. Specially, the extracts of Acanthopanax sessiliflorum and Astragalus membranaceus com- pletely suppressed the killing activity of CTL. Theses results suggest that the extracts of 5 herbal plants can be used as immunosuppressive agents.

<P>Tetanus toxin (TeT) is an exotoxin and has a capacity for neuronal binding and internalization. In the present study, we compared changes in the immunoreactivities and protein levels of interleukin (IL-) 2 as a pro-inflammatory cytokine and IL-4 as an anti-inflammatory cytokine in the hippocampus proper (HP) and dentate gyrus (DG) after systemic treatment of 10 or 100?ng/kg TeT into mice. In this study, we could not find any neuronal damage or loss in any subregions of the hippocampus after TeT treatment. In the control groups, strong IL-2 immunoreactivity was shown in the stratum pyramidal (SP) of the HP and in the granule cell layer (GCL) of the DG. At 6?h post-treatment, IL-2 immunoreactivity was hardly detected in the SP and GCL; however, strong IL-2 immunoreactivity was shown in the stratum oriens of the HP in both the groups. Thereafter, intermediate IL-2 immunoreactivity was shown in the SP and GCL. On the other hand, intermediate IL-4 immunoreactivity was detected in the SP and GCL of the control groups. At 6?h post-treatment, IL-4 immunoreactivity in the SP and GCL was apparently increased. Thereafter, IL-4 immunoreactivity was lower than that at 6?h post-treatment. In brief, IL-2 and 4 immunoreactivities were easily detected in SP and GCL in the controls and dramatically decreased and increased at 6?h post-treatment, respectively.</P>

Up-regulation of Heme Oxygenase-1 by Korean Red Ginseng Water Extract as a Cytoprotective Effect in Human Endothelial Cells

Yang, Ha-Na,Lee, Seung-Eun,Jeong, Seong-Il,Park, Cheung-Seog,Jin, Young-Ho,Park, Yong-Seek The Korean Society of Ginseng 2011 Journal of Ginseng Research Vol.35 No.3

Korean red ginseng (KRG) is used worldwide as a popular traditional herbal medicine. KRG has shown beneficial effects on cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, and hypertension. Up-regulation of a cytoprotective protein, heme oxygenase (HO)-1, is considered to augment the cellular defense against various agents that may induce cytotoxic injury. In the present study, we demonstrate that KRG water extract induces HO-1 expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and possible involvement of the anti-oxidant transcription factor nuclear factor-eythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). KRG-induced HO-1 expression was examined by western blots, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence staining. Specific silencing of Nrf2 genes with Nrf2-siRNA in HUVECs abolished HO-1 expression. In addition, the HO inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin blunted the preventive effect of KRG on $H_2O_2$-induced cell death, as demonstrated by terminal transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay. Taken together, these results suggest that KRG may exert a vasculoprotective effect through Nrf2-mediated HO-1 induction in human endothelial cell by inhibition of cell death.

Broussonetia kazinoki Siebold. (B. kazinoki) has long been used in the manufacture of paper in Asian countries. Although B. kazinoki leaves (BK) have been employed in dermatological therapy, use of BK has not been tested in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). Using Nc/Nga mice, which are genetically predisposed to develop AD-like skin lesions, we confirmed the efficacy of BK in AD treatment. BK extract was applied topically to Dermatophagoides farinae-induced AD-like lesions in Nc/Nga mice, and the effects were assessed both clinically and by measuring skin thickness on the back and ears. We measured the effects of BK extract on plasma levels of IgE and IL-4. We also measured the ability of BK extract to inhibit the secretion of hTARC in HaCaT cells after stimulation by TNF-α and IFN-γ. We found that BK extract significantly reduced ear and dorsal skin thickness and the clinical signs of AD, as well as significantly down-regulating the plasma levels of IgE and IL-4 (p<0.01 for each comparison). Moreover, 500 μg/ mL of BK extract inhibited hTARC secretion in HaCaT cells by activated TNF-α/IFN-γ by about 87%. These findings suggest that topical application of BK extract has excellent potential in the treatment of AD.

Nicotine Suppresses TNF-${\alpha}$ Expression in Human Fetal Astrocyte through the Modulation of Nuclear Factor-${\kappa}B$ Activation

Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses severely by a gradual loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Epidemiological studies showed that the incidences of PD were reduced by smoking of which the major component, nicotine might be neuroprotective. But the function of nicotine, which might suppress the incidences of PD, is still unknown. Fortunately, recently it was reported that a glial reaction and inflammatory processes might participate in a selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the SN. The levels of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$ synthesised by astrocytes and microglia are elevated in striatum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in PD. TNF-${\alpha}$ kills the cultured dopaminergic neurons through the apoptosis mechanism. TNF-${\alpha}$ release from glial cells may mediate progression of nigral degeneration in PD. Nicotine pretreatment considerably decreases microglial activation with significant reduction of TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA expression and TNF-${\alpha}$ release induced by lipopholysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Thus, this study was intended to explore the role of nicotine pretreatment to inhibit the expressions of TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA in human fetal astrocytes (HFA) stimulated with IL-$1{\beta}$. The results are as follows: HFA were pretreated with 0.1, 1, and $10{\mu}g/mL$ of nicotine and then stimulated with IL-$1{\beta}$ (100 pg/mL) for 2h. The inhibitory effect of nicotine on expressions of TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA in HFA with pretreated $0.1{\mu}g/mL$ of nicotine was first noted at 8hr, and the inhibitory effect was maximal at 12 h. The inhibitory effect at $1{\mu}g/mL$ of nicotine was inhibited maximal at 24 h. Cytotoxic effects of nicotine were noted above $10{\mu}g/mL$ of nicotine. Moreover, Nicotine at 0.1, 1 and $10{\mu}g/mL$concentrations significantly inhibited IL-$1{\beta}$-induced TF-${\kappa}B$ activation. Collectively, these results indicate that in activated HFA, nicotine may inhibit the expression of TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA through the pathway which suppresses the NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. This study suggests that nicotine might be neuroprotective to dopaminergic neurons in the SN and reduce the incidences of PD.

국소성 분절성 사구체 신병증의 동물 모델 (FGS/kist 생쥐) 신 조직의 유전자 발현 양상

강희경,이병섭,이철호,하일수,정해일,최용,Kang, Hee-Gyung,Lee, Byong-Sop,Lee, Chul-Ho,Ha, Il-Soo,Cheong, Hae-Il,Choi, Yong 대한소아신장학회 2011 Childhood kidney diseases Vol.15 No.1

목 적: 국소성 분절성 사구체 경화증(Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 이하 FSGS)은 소아신부전의 원인 중 가장 흔한 사구체 질환이다. 일차성 FSGS의 병인은 아직 알려져 있지 않으므로, 저자들은 FSGS의 동물 모델을 대상으로 cDNA 마이크로어레이를 이용한 유전자 발현 양상 분석을 통하여 유전자 발현 수준에서의 FSGS의 질환의 특성을 밝히고자 하였다. 방 법: 사람의 일차성 FSGS와 유사한 질병경과를 보이는 동물모델인 FGS/kist 생쥐의 신피질 조직을 대조군 생쥐(FGS/kist 생쥐의 조상 strain인 RFM/kist 생쥐)와 AB 1700 mouse chip을 이용한 마이크로어레이 실험으로 비교하였다. 결 과: FGS 질병특이 유전자가 62개 추출되었다. 이들은 세포주기/사멸, 면역반응과 지질 대사/혈관 질환과 관련된 유전자들로써, 유전자간 network의 중심유전자가 면역반응(TNF, IL-6/4, IFNg)과 세포사멸 조절 유전자(TP 53), 그리고 지질대사의 중요 유전자인 PPARG이었다. 결 론: 이 연구에서 저자들은 자발적인 FSGS의 임상경과를 보이는 FGS/Kist 생쥐의 신장조직의 유전자 발현의 분석을 통하여 신장세포사멸과 면역반응에 뒤따르는 기질 섬유화, 그리고 지질 대사의 이상과 조기 혈관 질환이 FSGS의 병태생리에 기여할 것임을 다시 확인할 수 있었다. 추가적인 연구가 계속된다면 global transcriptome profiling 기법으로 병인 탐색 및 치료방법 개발 에 의미 있는 결과를 도출할 수 있을 것이다. Purpose: Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is the most common glomerulopathy causing pediatric renal failure. Since specific treatment targeting the etiology and pathophysiology of primary FSGS is yet elusive, the authors explored the pathophysiology of FSGS by transcriptome analysis of the disease using an animal model. Methods: FGS/kist strain, a mouse model of primary FSGS, and RFM/kist strain, as control and the parent strain of FGS/kist, were used. Kidney tissues were harvested and isolated renal cortex was used to extract mRNA, which was run on AB 1700 mouse microarray chip after reverse transcription to get the transcriptome profile. Results: Sixty two genes were differentially expressed in FGS/kist kidney tissue compared to the control. Those genes were related to cell cycle/cell death, immune reaction, and lipid metabolism/vasculopathy, and the key molecules of their networks were TNF, IL-6/4, IFN${\gamma}$, TP53, and PPAR${\gamma}$. Conclusion: This study confirmed that renal cell death, immune system activation with subsequent fibrosis, and lipid metabolism-related early vasculopathy were involved in the pathophysiology of FSGS. In addition, the relevance of methodology used in this study, namely transcriptome profiling, and Korean animal model of FGS/kist was validated. Further study would reveal novel pathophysiology of FSGS for new therapeutic targets.
