본 연구에서는 프로바이오틱스 유래 엑소좀 유사 나노베지클을 분리하고, 피부에 대한 여러 가지 생리활성을 평가했다. 프로바이오틱스의 한 종인 Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (LL)를 배양하고 고압균질기와 한외여과를 통해 70 ∼ 200 nm 크기를 갖는 LL 유래 엑소좀 유사 나노베지클(LVs)을 분리했다. 나노입자추적분석 결과 1.81 × 10¹¹ particles/mL로 나타났다. LVs를 섬유아세포와 피부각질세포에 처리하여 피부 주름과 장벽 개선과 관련된 효능을 확인했다. 우선 섬유아세포에서 fibrillin (FBN1) 유전자 발현량이 23%, 피부각질세포에서 fibronectin (FN1)과 filaggrin (FGN) 유전자 발현량이 각각 65%, 400% 증가했다. 그리고 각질형성능은 대조군 대비 30% 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, UV 조사한 피부각질세포에 LVs를 처리했을 때 collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1)이 대조군 대비 약 83% 증가하는 결과를 보여주었다. 이로써 프로바이오틱스 유래 엑소좀 유사 나노베지클은 장벽 개선과 관련하여 화장품 및 의약품 소재로 이용할 수 있음을 확인했다. In this study, exosomal-like nano-vesicles derived from probiotics were isolated and various physiological activities were evaluated on the skin. This study show that Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (LL) are incubated, and then isolated LL derived exosomal nanovesicles (LVs) at the range of 70 ∼ 200 nm by high-pressure homogenizer and ultrafiltration. The vesicle numbers were an average of 1.81 × 10¹¹ particles/mL. This study finds out the bacterial nanovesicles’ beneficial effect on the skin. Fibrillin (FBN1) gene expression increased by 23% in fibroblast cells. Fibronectin (FN1) and filaggrin (FLG) gene expression increased by 65% and 400% in keratinocytes. We could see that cornified envelope (CE) formation ability was increased by 30% compared to the control group. Furthermore, collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1) protein expression increased by 83% compared to the UV-irradiated control group. These results suggest that LVs could help skin barrier improvement and used as an ingredient for cosmetics or pharmaceuticals.

<P>Dental tissue has been the focus of attention as an easily accessible postnatal tissue source of high-quality stem cells. Since the first report on the dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from permanent third molar teeth, stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) were identified as a population distinct from DPSCs. In this study, we compared DPSCs from supernumerary teeth and SHED in three age- and sex-matched patients.</P>

The Nogo-B receptor (NgBR) is necessary for not only Nogo-B-mediated angiogenesis but also vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -induced angiogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulatory role of the VEGF-NgBR axis in angiogenesis are not fully understood. Here, we report that miR-26a serves as a critical regulator of VEGF-mediated angiogenesis through directly targeting NgBR in endothelial cells (ECs). Stimulation of ECs by VEGF increased the expression of NgBR and decreased the expression of miR-26a. In addition, miR-26a decreased the VEGF-induced migration and proliferation of ECs. Moreover, miR-26a overexpression in ECs decreased the VEGF-induced phosphorylation of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and the production of nitric oxide, which is important for angiogenesis. Overall, these data suggest that miR-26a plays a key role in VEGF-mediated angiogenesis through the modulation of eNOS activity, which is mediated by its ability to regulate NgBR expression by directly targeting the NgBR 3`-UTR.

Objectives: Limited information is available on the presence and associated ecological risks of pharmaceutical residues in aquatic environments near pharmaceutical manufacturing areas in Korea. In this study, we investigated the current state of pharmaceutical contamination and its associated ecological risks in streams near a pharmaceutical manufacturing complex. Methods: Seven pharmaceuticals (acetaminophen, clarithromycin, diclofenac, diphenhydramine, ibuprofen, mefenamic acid and roxithromycin) were measured in water samples collected from the streams near a harmaceutical manufacturing complex. A predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC) was derived using either the assessment factor method or species sensitivity distribution method. In addition, a hazard quotient for each pharmaceutical was calculated by dividing its measured environmental concentration by its PNEC. Results: Samples collected downstream from the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) had higher concentrations of pharmaceuticals than those collected from the reference site (upstream). Moreover, pharmaceutical concentrations were greater in ambient water than in the final effluent from the WWTP, which suggested that non-point sources were contributing to the contamination of the ambient water environment. Some of the target pharmaceuticals exhibited a hazard quotient >1, indicating that their potential ecological effects on the aquatic environment near the pharmaceutical industrial area should not be ignored. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the pharmaceutical manufacturing area was contaminated with residual drugs, and that there was a possible non-point source near the WWTP effluent discharge area. The results of this study will aid in the development of management plans for pharmaceuticals, particularly in hotspots such as pharmaceutical industrial sites and their vicinities.

본 연구의 목적은 그라비올라 잎의 항산화 효능과 멜라닌 생성 촉진효과를 조사하는 것이다. 먼저 AMME와 유기용매 별 분획물의 항산화 효능을 확인하기 위해 DPPH radical 소거능과, reducing power를 수행하였다. AMME와 유기용매별 분획물은 농도에 비례하여 항산화 효능이 증가하였으며, 그 중 ethyl acetate 분획물에서 가장 높은 항산화 효능을 보였다. 항산화 효능을 보인 분획물들의 멜라닌 생성에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 tyrosinase activity를 수행한 결과 AMME, ethyl acetate, hexane 분획물에서 농도에 비례하여 멜라닌 생성 촉진효능이 나타났다. 그 중에서 AMME 유기 용매 별 분획물에서 멜라닌 합성 효능이 가장 좋은 hexane 분획물을 칼럼크로마토그래피를 통해 12가지 분획물로 나누어 항산화 실험과 멜라닌 합성실험을 수행하였다. 그 중 Fig. 8에서 DPPH radical 소거능과 환원력이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. In vitro melanin 합성 실험 결과, Fr. 7은 64 μg/ml 농도에서 260%의 멜라닌 합성 효능을 보였고, Fr. 8은 64 μg/ml 농도에서 184%의 멜라닌 합성 효능이 관찰되었다. 최종적으로 B16F1 세포에서 Fr. 8의 4 μg/ml 농도에서 34%의 멜라닌 합성 효능을 보였다. LC-MS 결과 Fr. 7이 617의 분자량을 나타냈고, Fr. 8이 분자량 619의 분자량을 나타냈다. FT-IR 결과 Fig. 7과 Fig. 8 모두 Bis(2-hydroxyethly)dimerate와 비슷한 유효성분을 나타냈다. 이상의 결과로 그라비올라 잎은 천연 항산화제 또는 멜라닌 생성 촉진효과와 관련 있는 모발 제품 개발에 응용가능성이 있다고 판단된다. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of methanolic extracts of graviola, Annona muricate leaves (AMME) on antioxidant activity and melanin production. First of all, DPPH radical and reducing power were performed to determine the antioxidant effect of AMME and organic solvent fractions. AMME and organic solvent fractions showed antioxidative activity in a concentration dependent manner. The ethyl acetate fraction of AMME among organic solvent fractions showed the highest antioxidant activity. Moreover, tyrosinase activity was performed to confirm the effect of organic fractions on melanin production. AMME, ethyl acetate, and hexane fractions increased tyrosinase activity a dose dependent manner. Next, the hexane fraction with the best effect on melanin synthesis in AMME organic solvent fraction was divided into 12 fractions by silica column chromatography. Among them, the fraction 7 and 8 showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power. In addition, the fraction 7 and 8 at 64 μg/ml showed melanin synthesis by 260% and 184%, respectively. Finally, the fraction 8 at 4 μg/ml showed melanin synthesis by 34% in B16F1 cells. LC-MS analysis showed that fraction 7 and fraction 8 have a molecular weight of 617 and 619, respectively. FT-IR analysis showed that fractions 7 and 8 is similar to bis(2-hydroxyethly)dimerate. Above results suggest that graviola leaves extracts could be applicable to the development of natural antioxidants or hair cosmetics which are related to the promoting effect of melanin production.
