Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effect of soybean extracts produced by organic cultivation
유기농 대두 추출물의 항염증 및 항알레르기 효과
Abstract
This present study was carried out to investigate the biological effects of soybean extracts comparing organic and conventional cultivation. Cellular and molecular analysis was performed to determine anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory effects of both soybean extracts. First, we obtained various solvent extracts of soybeans such as water, ethanol, and methanol. Molecular and cellular analysis were performed with 0.1 mg/ml concentration of each solvent extracts. The results of anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of organic cultivated soybean extracts were prominent than conventional cultivated soybean extracts. However, discrepancy between organic and conventional cultivated soybean extracts was not observed in anti-allergic effects determined by releasing histamine from rat mast cell line, RBL-2H3. Conclusively, organic cultivated soybeans have stronger effects than conventional cultivated soybeans in suppression of inflammation. In addition, organic soybeans could be applied as a functional food ingredient for treatment of chronic inflammation, asthma, and atopic dermatitis with enhanced anti-inflammatory activities.
유기농 및 일반재배 대두를 다양한 용매에서 추출하여 그 추출물에 대한 항산화 효과, 항염증 효과, 대식세포의 세포사멸 보호 효과, 그리고 알레르기 저해효과를 비교하였다. DPPH 법과 SOD 효소의 활성 측정으로 항산화 능력을 평가하였으며, 항염증 효과는 LPS로 유도시킨 Raw 264.7 세포주에서 염증 매개 단백질인 Cox-2와 iNOS의 발현량을 western blotting으로 조사하여 분석하였다. 또한 대식세포 보호 효과를 세포사멸 조절 단백질인 Bcl-xl의 발현량 조사로 평가하였고, 1 mM
