Abstract

In this study, we investigated the effect of C. zawadskii extract on nitric oxide (NO) production, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production, protein and mRNA expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. C. zawadskii extract (5~50 μg/mL) significantly inhibited LPS-induced NO production in a concentration-dependent manner ranging from 23.3% to 100%. Consistent with the inhibitory effect on NO production, C. zawadskii extract inhibited the protein expression and mRNA expression of iNOS. Although flower extracts of C. zawadskii was not effective on the expression of PGE2 and COX-2, flower extracts of C. zawadskii, however, showed a strong anti-inflammatory activity through inhibition of NO production and iNOS expression. The present results suggest that C. zawadskii extract has an inhibitory effect on NO production, and thus can be used as an anti-inflammatory agent.

본 연구에서는 구절초의 항염증 효과를 탐색하기 위해 NO의 함량과 iNOS의 발현 및 PGE2와 COX-2의 발현을 LPS로 염증을 유도한 RAW 264.7 macrophage cell을 이용하여 실험하였다. 연구 결과 구절초 꽃 추출물은 NO 함량을 농도 의존적으로 감소시키는 경향을 나타냈으며 유의한 차이를 보였다. 또한 세포독성은 꽃 추출물(5～50 μg/mL)은 최고 농도인 50 μg/mL에서 약 20%의 독성을 나타냈으며 그 이하의 농도에서는 독성을 나타내지 않았다. NO 생성의 억제는 iNOS의 단백질과 mRNA의 발현을 농도 의존적으로 저해하였으며 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내었다. 이 결과로 구절초 꽃 추출물이 전사단계에서 저해 활성을 나타낸다는 것을 보여주었다. 그러나 PGE2와 COX-2의 발현 억제 효과는 나타나지 않았으며, 이 결과 구절초 꽃 추출물에 의한 COX-2 단백질의 발현 억제와 PGE2 생성 억제는 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과, 구절초 추출물은 염증을 일으키는 중요 인자인 NO를 저해하였고, iNOS의 발현, iNOS의 mRNA 발현 등 항염증에 우수한 효과를 보였으며, 항염증 연구의 기초 자료로 활용될 것으로 예상된다. 또한 추후 산업적 응용도 가능하므로 지속적인 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
