백화사활초(白花蛇活草)로부터 분리(分離)된 항암성물질(抗癌性物質)에 관(關)한 연구(硏究) = Study on the Antitumor Substance Isolated from Oldenlandiae diffusae Herba

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Hexane fraction of Oldenlandiae diffusae Herba(ODH) which was being used for the treatment of caner in oriental medicine showed the best cytotoxicity against L1210 and A549 in the solvent fractions. Antitumor substance isolated from hexane fraction of ODH was identified as ursolic acid(UA) by photometric analysis. IC50 of UA against cancer cells as SNU-1, HCT15, XF498, SK-MEL2 and A549 was $13{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $15{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $12{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $9{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ and $11{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ respectively. It significantly inhibited the metastasis to lungs and kidneys from pulmonary colonization assay and study on histological changes of organs and showed the enhancing effect on B cell dosage-dependently by FACS analysis. T/C % of UA against S-180 cells was 171 % and its cytotoxicity against SNU-1 iant was confirmed from the morphological changes by elctronic microscopes such as SEM and TEM that it induced undulated membrane 4 hr after UA treatment, and the breakdown of cell membrane and nucleus 24 hr after UA treatment.
