Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammation effect of extract of Carthamus tinctorious seed, on skin obtained from Gyeong buk, Korea. Regulatory mechanisms of cytokines and nitric oxide (NO) involved in immunological activity of Raw 264.7 cells. Tested cells were pretreated with 70% ethanol extracted of Carthamus tinctorious seed and further cultured for an appropriated time after the addition of lipopolyssacharide (LPS). During the entire experimental period, 5, 10, 25 and 50 ${\mu}g/ml$ of Carthamus tinctorious seed showed no cytotoxicity. In these concentrations, ethyl acetate layer of ethanol extracted Carthamus tinctorius seed (CT-E/E) inhibited the production of NO and prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), tumor necorsis factor-a (TNF-${\alpha}$), interleukin-$1{\beta}$ (IL-$1{\beta}$), interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). At a 50 ${\mu}g/ml$ level of CT-E/E, $PGE_2$, iNOS and COX-2 inhibition activity were shown 60%, 38%, and 42%, respectively. In addition, CT-E/E reduced the release of inflammatory cytokines including TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6. These results suggest that Carthamus tinctorious seed extracts may be a potential anti-inflammatory therapeutic agent due to the significant effects on inflammatory factors.

본 연구에서는 홍화자 추출물이 항염증에 대한 실험연구가 이루어져 있지 않은 것에 착안하여 LPS에 의해 활성화된 대식세포로부터 유도되는 염증반응에 대한 억제효과를 조사하였다. 홍화자 추출물을 이용하여 피부 염증에 대하여 연구를 하였다. 산화질소와 cytokine의 생산은 면역세포의 대표적인 염증인자이다. 세포는 LPS 처리 후 한 시간 뒤에 홍화자 추출물을 처리를 하였다. 세포 독성이 나타나지 않는 농도인 5, 10, 25 및 50 ${\mu}g/ml$를 사용하였다. 홍화자의 에틸아세테이트 분획물은 NO, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, iNOS, COX-2의 생성을 저해 시켰다. $PGE_2$는 50 ${\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 60%에 가까운 저해율을 나타내었다. iNOS와 COX-2 역시 ${\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 각각 54%, 65%가 저해가 되었다. 게다가 홍화자 에틸아세테이트 분획물은 염증성 사이토카인인 TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6의 생성을 감소 시켰다. 이러한 결과로 홍화자 추출물은 염증 예방과 치료에 효과적임을 확인 할 수 있었다.
