사과 추출물과 phloretin에 의한 항염증 활성

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구에서는 풋사과의 열수추출물(GAHW)과 에탄올추출물(GAE), 그리고 애사과 열수추출물(UAHW)을 제조하고 LPS로 활성화된 RAW264.7세포주를 이용하여 이들의 항염증 활성을 연구하였다. 모든 추출물이 세포생존율에는 영향을 미치지 않고 nitric oxide (NO) 생산을 저해하였으며, iNOS의 발현도 감소시켰다. 반면, UAHW만이 COX-2의 발현을 저해하였다. 또한 모든 추출물이 모든 MAPKs의 인산화를 감소시켰다. 모든 추출물이 ROS의 생산을 농도의존적으로 감소시켰으며, GAHW와 GAE에 의해 HO-1의 발현이 증가됨을 확인하였다. 또한, 사과 flavonoid인 phloretin과 phloridzin의 항염증 활성을 연구하였다. Phloretin은 농도의존적으로 NO의 생산을 저해하였으나, phloridzin은 NO 생산에 아무 영향이 없었다. 또한, phloretin은 iNOS와 COX-2 단백질의 발현을 감소시킨 반면, phloridzin은 두 단백질 발현에 영향을 주지 못하였다. 따라서, 이러한 연구결과는 사과 추출물은 MAPK 경로와 HO-1 경로를 조절함으로써 항염증 활성을 가지며, phloretin이 사과의 항염증 활성을 담당하는 파이토케미칼의 하나가 될 수 있음을 제시한다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In the present study, we prepared hot water extracts of green apple (GAHW) and unripe apple (UAHW), and ethanol extract of green apple (GAE), and investigated their anti-inflammatory activities in LPS-activated RAW264.7 cells. All extracts dramatically suppressed nitric oxide (NO) production in a dose-dependent manner in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells without affecting cell viability. In addition, all extracts decreased the expression of iNOS, whereas UAHW only reduced the expression of COX-2. All extracts suppressed the phosphorylation of MAPKs (p38, ERK, and JNK) indicating all extracts show their anti-inflammatory activities via regulating MAPK pathway. Furthermore, all extracts reduced the production of reactive oxygen species in a dose-dependent manner and they increased the expression of heme oxygenase-I (HO-I) whereas UAHW could not. We also investigated whether apple flavonoids phloretin and phloridzin can have their anti-inflammatory activities in same in vitro model. Phloretin dramatically decreased NO production in a dose dependent manner without affecting cell viability, whereas phloridzin have no effects. Phloretin also reduced the expression of iNOS as well as COX-2, whereas phloridzin could not. Overall, these results suggest that apple extracts have their anti-inflammatory activities via regulating MAPKs and HO-1 pathways, and apple flavonoid phloretin can be one of phytochemicals responsible for anti-inflammatory effect of apple.
