Objective In order to study the effects of bee venom(BV) on the pain, edema, and acute inflammatory reactant of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) patients. Methods Patients with RA who met the ACR(American College of Rheumatology) 1987 revised criteria for the diagnosis of RA were treated with the BV therapy twice a week for 3 months. Tender Joint counts, swollen joint counts, Visual analog scale(VAS), morning stiffness, ESR. C-reactive protein(CRP) were analyzed before and after BV therapy. Results The results as follows. 1. Tender joint counts in patients after BV therapy were significantly lower than those before BV therapy(9.0±7.9 vs 15± 11.4, p=0.002). 2. Swollen joint counts of the patients after BV therapy were significantly lower than those before BV therapy(50±61 vs 15±23, p=0.001). 3. VAS in patients after BV therapy was significantly lower than those before BV therapy(608± 17.6 vs 380± 159, p=0.000). 4. Duration of morning stiffness in patients after BV therapy was significantly reduced compared with that before BV therapy(119.1± 112.6 min vs 59.0±89.7 min, p=0.009). 5. ESR and CRP were not significantly changed before and after BV therapy, suggesting BV itself could make inflammatory reaction as well as therapeutic effect. Conclusions BV therapy improved tender joint counts, swollen joint counts and duration of morning stiffness in this study, and further study is needed on long-term effect of BV therapy.

이재원,이석영,이형래,이상철,김용태,김원재 충북대학교 의학연구소 2002 忠北醫大學術誌 Vol.12 No.2

연구목적: 전립선비대증은 노화현상에 의해 발생하는 질환으로서 임상적으로 주로 50세 이상에서 증상이 나타난다. 산소 라디칼은 DNA의 염기에 다양한 손상을 미칠 수 있다. 산소 라디칼에 의한 DNA의 변화에는 여러 가지 형태가 있으며 이러한 변화들 가운데서 guanine이 8-oxoguanine (8-hydroxyguanine, oh8Gua)으로의 수산화(hydroxylation) 반응은 가장 흔히 관찰되는 형태로서 노화 및 만성 퇴행성 질환, 기타 여러 질환의 중요한 병인으로 인식되고 있다. 세포에 유해한 영향을 주는 oh8Gua의 생성으로부터 유전자를 보호하는 수복효소 중 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (OGG1)가 주된 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있는데 이 효소를 생산하는 유전자인 hOGG1은 사람마다 유전자형이 다르다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전립선비대증이 노화와 관련된 hOGG1 유전자형에 따라서 발생에 차이가 있는지를 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법: 충북대학교 병원에서 전립선비대증으로 진단 받고 입원하여 경요도전립선절제술을 받은 환자로 병리 조직학적으로 전립선비대증이 확인된 81명을 환자군으로 하였으며, 충청북도내 10개 군에서 50세 이상의 건강한 성인 남자 764명을 대상으로 실시한 전립선 무료검진에서 경직장 초음파 검사상 전립선 크기 20 gm 이하, 국제 전립선 증상 점수(IPSS) 7점 이하, 요속 10 ㎖/s 이상, 전립선 특이 항원(PSA) 4.0 ng/㎖ 이하인 81명을 대조군으로 설정하였다. 이들에서 채취한 혈액에서 genomic DNA를 얻은 후 PCR-SSCP (polymerase chain reaction-single stranded conformation polymorphism), 직접 염기서열분석(direct DNA sequencing) 및 RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism)를 통해서 두 군 사이의 hOGG1 유전자의 다형성을 분석하였다. 결과: 대조군에서 codon 326형은 Ser326Ser형이 12례(14.8%), Ser326Cys형이 51례(63.0%), Cys326Cys형이 18례(22.2%)였으며 전립선비대증 환자군에서는 Ser326Ser형이 15례(18.5%), Ser326Cys형이 34례(42.0%), Cys326Cys형이 32례(39.5%)로 두 군 사이에 통계적인 유의성이 관찰되었다(p=0.022). 또한 Cys326Cys형과 나머지(Ser326Ser, Ser326Cys)형으로 나누어 시행한 통계 분석에서도 대조군에서는 각각 18례(22.2%), 63례(77.8%)였으며 전립선비대증 환자군에서는 32례(39.5%), 49례(60.5%)로 통계적인 유의성이 관찰되었다(p=0.017, OR=2.286, 95% CI=1.149-4.546). 결론: hOGG1 유전자의 형태와 전립선비대증의 발생과는 밀접한 관련이 있었다. 즉 hOGG1 Cys326Cys형을 가진 사람에서 전립선비대증이 발생한 가능성이 높을 것으로 사료된다. Purpose: 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OSS1) rapairs DNA by removing 8-oxoguanine (oh8Gua), a highly mutagenic oxidative DNA adduct. Recently, the human gene for OGG1 (hOGG1) was cloned and several genotypes have been reported. However, the implications of such genotypes in benign prostatic lyperplasia have not been demonstrated. To assess the involvement of hOGG1 associated with the aging process on the developing of BPH, we analyzed the genetic polymorphisms of hOGG1. Materials and Methods: We studied the hOGG1 gene polymorphisms in 81 cases of BPH and 81 cases of normal controls. We performed the SSCP, PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and direct sequencing to characterize the genetic polymorphisms of hOGG1 in both BPH patients and controls. Results: We found two polymorphic sites. A serine326/cysteine polymorphism at codon 326 (1a type) in exon 7 was associated with an exchange of amino acid. Another polymorphic site at codon 324 (1b type) in exon 6 was silent. We found that the distribution of hOGG1 genotypes in BPH patients (Ser326Ser type 18.5%, Ser326Cys type 42.0% and Cys326Cys type 39.5%) was significantly different from that in controls (14.8%, 63.0% and 22.2%, respectively) (p=0.022). Homozygosity for the Cys326Cys genotype significantly increased the risk of developing BPH, with the odds ratio (OR) being 2.286 (95% confidence interval [CI]=1.149-4.546) Conclusion: Our results suggest that the hOGG1 Cys326Cys genotype might play a important role in the development of BPH.

Fluoxetine이 Schedule-Induced Polydipsia가 유발된 백서 뇌에서 Tyrosine Hydroxylase 발현에 미치는 영향

이기철,이정호,최영민,정주호,정홍경,이용민,김도형,이대환 大韓神經精神醫學會 2001 신경정신의학 Vol.40 No.2

연구목적: Fluoxetine은 serotonin을 매개하여 간접적으로 dopamine 신경전달기능을 억제한다고 추정되고 있다. 또한 운동장애에서 운동기능의 악화를 유발한다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 신경세포체에서 fluoxetine이 dopamine에 어떠한 영향을 주는지는 아직까지 확실치 않다. 저자들은 schedule-induced polydipsia를 유발시킨 백서 뇌의 흑질, 복부피개영역, 미상핵에서 tyrosine hydroxylase(TH) 발현이 저하됨을 발견하였다. 이를 통해서 fluoxetine이 백서 뇌의 dopamine 기능에 긍정적인지 혹은 부정적인지를 규명하고자 하였다. 방법: 4주간의 schedule-induced polydipsia 과정을 거친 백서에서 면역죄치화학적인 방법으로 흑질, 복부피개영역, 미상핵의 tyrosine hydroxylase 발현이 저하됨을 확인한 후, 실험동물들에게 fluoxetine 10mg/kg를 3주간 복강내 주사하였다. 실험백서들을 희생시켜 뇌 조직을 적출하여, TH 면역조직화학 염색법을 이용하여 흑질, 복부피개영역, 그리고 미상핵의 TH 면역반응세포를 관찰하고 이를 정상백서와 비교하였다. 결과: 1) 다갈증이 유발된 백서의 흑질, 복부피개영역, 미상핵에서 tyrosine hydroxylase 발현이 정상백서 보다 저하됨을 관찰하였다. 2) 3주간에 걸친 fluoxetine 투여후 흑질, 복부피개영역, 미상핵의 tyrosin hydroxylase 발현이 다시 증가하는 소견을 보였다. 결론: Fluoxetine 만성투여가 흑질, 복부피개영역 그리고 미상핵의 tyrosin hydroxylase를 증가시키는 소견을 얻었다. 이러한 결과는 임상에서 dopamine 결핍과 연관된 질환들에서 fluoxetine을 만성투여하면 운동기능을 포함한 증상들의 개선을 가져올 수도 있다고 추정된다. Objective: It has been suggested that fluoxetine inhibits the dopaminergic neurotransmission by serotonergic mediation. And also, it has been shown to inhibit synthesis of DOPA in dopamine-rich areas of the rat forebrain. These dopamine-antagonistic capacity of fluoxetine is only supported by anecdotal report that the increased amount of motor disability in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease after exposure to fluoxetine. However, there is still no evidence of the direct effect of fluoxetine on dopaminergic neuronal cell body in the substantia nigra, VTA, caudate & putamen. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of fluoxetine in rat brain which showed decreased numbers of dopaminergic neuronal cell body induced by schedule-induced polydipsia(SIP). Method: We incidentally found that 4 weeks of schedule-induced polydipsic rats revealed the suppression of tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the substantia nigra, VTA, caudate & putamen with the immunohistochemistric measures. After 3 weeks of intraperitoneal injection of 10mg/kg of fluoxetine to the schedule induced polydipsic rats, the tyrosine hydroxylase expression was also measured with immunohistochemistry. We compared the tyrosine hydroxylase expression among the normal control, the polydipsic rats, and the rats with fluoxetine treatment. Results: 1) By contrast with the control, the polydipsic rats revealed the evidence of decreased tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the substantia nigra, VTA, caudate & putamen. 2)After daily injection of fluoxetine for 3 weeks, the polydipsic rats showed increment of tyrosine hydroxyase expression in those areas. Conclusions: In previous studies, a great deal of results suggest that fluoxetine negatively influence the dopaminergic systems indirectly via serotonergic activation such as inhibition of dopamine synthesis or transport system. Although our results are obtained from rodents, we suggest that fluoxetine directly and positively enhance the dopamine system in the substantia nigra, VTA, caudate & putamen. The chronic adminstration of fluoxetine may be helpful to dopamine-depleted condition in clinical situations. We anticipate the replication studies of our findings and well-controlled clinical trial.

관상동맥 질환에서 SDF-1α의 농도

김보영,박용규,박형서,노상필,정승현,이유선,이정우,이재환,최시완,정진옥,성인환 충남대학교 의과대학 의학연구소 2003 충남의대잡지 Vol.30 No.1

Atherosclerosis is now viewed as an inflammatory disease of the vascular system. Expression of several chemokines, including monocyte chemoattractant protein(MCP)-1, MCP-4, RANTES(regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted), and interleukin-8(IL-8) are increased in human atherosclerotic plaques compared with normal vessels. They are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and plaque rupture by activating and directing leukocytes into the atherosclerotic lesions. However, some are involved in homeostatic functions such as normal leukocyte traffic and growth regulation. SDF-la is a multi-functional cytokine that is involved in myelogenesis, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and injured gastric mucosal regeneration in the gastric ulcer patient. SDF-la is recently shown to be highly expressed in atherosclerotic plaques and a potent platelet agonist. At least in high concentrations, SDF-la may mediate antiinflammatory and matrix stabilizing effects in unstable angina. Many studies are going on to know the function of SDF-la in coronary artery diseases. I investigated the difference of the plasma level of SDF-la between control group and coronary artery disease group. Total 75 subjects were enrolled. The diagnosis of coronary artery disease was confirmed in all patients by coronary angiography. Control subjects in this study were confirmed normal by coronary angiography. Clinical profile and risk factors were also reviewed. Control subjects in this study were 27 (M=10, F=17). Plasma for the study was collected before the angiography and centrifuged. SDF-la analysis was performed by ELISA. Plasma level of SDF-la is significantly increased in patients with stable angina(n=20) and unstable angina group(n=28) compared with healthy control group(n=27). the risk factors do not influence the plasma level of SDF-la in coronary artery diseases. In this study, plasma level of SDF-la is increased in patients with stable angina and unstable angina groups compared with healthy control group(P<0.05). the risk factors do not influence the plasma level of SDF-la in coronary artery diseases.

본 연구에서는 배의 유용성 증명을 위한 일환으로 배의 화학성분을 분자수준에서 밝히고자 하였다. 이에 배 과피 MeOH 추출물을 용매분획하여 얻은 EtOAc-산성 분획과 EtOAc-중성분획을 대상으로 Sephadex LH-20, silica gel, 그리고 ODS colmn chromatography와 HPLC를 이용하여 정제 및 단리하였다. 그 결과, EtOAc-산성 분획과 EtOAc-중성 분획으로부터 각각 2종씩의 화합물을 단리하였다. 단리된 화합물 1-4는 1H- 및 13C-NMR 분석을 통하여 각각 (S)-(+)-2-cis-abscisic acid O-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (화합물 1), 1-[4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl]phenyl ethanone(piceoside, 화합물 2), β-sitosterol (화합물 3), 그리고 β-sitosteryl 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (화합물 4)로 동정되었다. 단리된 3종의 배당체 화합물(화합물 1, 2, 4)들은 본 연구에 의해 배로부터 처음 동정되었으며, 화합물 3은 추황배로부터 처음 동정되었다. 본 연구결과가 배 함유 성분연구는 물론 배의 기능성 해명 연구에도 추후 중요한 기초자료로 활용되길 기대한다. We isolated and identified antioxidants from acidic and neutral ethyl acetate fractions of the peel of pear (Pyrus pyrifolia N. cv. Chuhwangbae). We isolated 4 compounds from the methanol extract, by using 3 different types of column chromatography (Sephadex LH-20, silica gel, and octadecylsilane) and preparative HPLC. We identified the isolated compounds as (S)-(+)-2-cis-abscisic acid O-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester (compound 1), 1-[4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl]phenyl ethanone (picroside, compound 2), β-sitosterol (compound 3), and β-sitosteryl 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (compound 4) by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. We are the first to report the identification of compounds 1, 2, and 4 from pear.

The current study evaluates the capacity of eugenol to regulate immediate allergic reaction by control of histamine release. Administrations of eugenol (1 M/kg. i.p.) at 60 min before and 5.10 min after the compound 48/80 treatment (8 mg/kg.i.p.) were shown the mortality rates as 0.44.4. and 77.8%. respectively. A 60 min before administered group revealed a singificant inhibition of serum his-tamine release compared with those of 5 and 10 min after the compound 48/80 injection. Eugenol (6-48mM) was also showed a dose-dependent activity on the compound 48/80-induced histamine release from the highly purified population of Alcian Blue-positive peritoneal mast cells. These results indicate that in vitro treatment with exogenous eugenol inhibited the active response of mast cell populations and modulated its characteristics.

Background & Objectives:Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by sudden memory loss of recent events, transient inability to retain new information, and retrograde amnesia in the absence of other neurological signs and symptoms, resolving within 24 hours. This study investigated alterations in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in patients with TGA by using statistical parametric mapping 99 (SPM99). Methods:5 patients with TGA and 9 age-matched normal control subjects were evaluated. Tc-99m-ethyl cysteinate dimer (ECD) SPECT were performed within 1 to 4 days of the event to measure the regional CBF, and SPM99 were applied to the objective analysis of SPECT data between two groups. Follow-up ECD SPECT was done at 49 to 107 days (mean 76.8) after the previous SPECT to evaluate the long term changes of the regional CBF. Results:The SPM analysis of SPECT images revealed significantly decreased rCBF in the left superior temporal gyrus, the left parietal supramarginal gyrus and the left thalamus (corrected p=0.01) and increased CBF in the contralateral mirror regions in patients with TGA. Follow-up SPECT showed persistent rCBF changes in the same regions. Conclusions:We demonstrate decreased perfusion in the left cerebral hemisphere and increased perfusion in the right cerebral hemisphere in patients with TGA. This reciprocal change of rCBF might suggest that imbalanced neuronal activity between two hemispheres may be important in the pathogenesis of the TGA. Also, the abnormal rCBF changes appeared to last long after the complete recovery of clinical manifestation of TGA.
