초록

목 적: 이 생체 내 연구의 목적은 인도메타신과 비교했을 때 쥐의 원발성 월경통에 대한 계지 복령환 열수 추출물의 진통 및 개선 효과를 관찰하는 것이다. 방 법: 랫트 PD 모델을 만들기 위해, Estradiol benzoate를 10일간 투여한 다음 마지막 10회 estradiol benzoate 투여 1시간 후 1 U/kg의 oxytocin을 투여하였다. 계지복령환 열수 추출물을 500, 250 및 125 mg/kg 용량으로 매일 1회씩 10일간 투여하였다. 이후 체중 및 실험 기간 동안의 체중 증가량, 자궁 중량 및 육안부검 소견, 진통 활성을 나타내는 abdominal writhing test, 자궁 조직 내 지질 과산화(Malondialdehyde, MDA 함량) 및 항산화 방어 시스템 - glutathione (GSH) 함량, superoxide dismutase (SOD) 및 catalase (CAT) 활성, Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) 및 cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 mRNA의 발현, 자궁의 조직병리학적 변화, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α 및 inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)로 나타나는 면역조직 화학적 변화를 관찰하였다. 계지복령환 열수 추출물의 결과는 인도메타신 투여 쥐의 결과와 비교하였다. 결 과: Estradiol benzoate 및 oxytocin 투여 결과, 현저한 체중 및 증체량, 자궁 GSH 함량, SOD와 CAT 활성의 감소와 abdominal writhing 반응, 자궁 지질 과산화(MDA 함량), 자궁 중량, NF-κB 및 COX-2 mRNA 발현의 증가가 TNF-α 및 iNOS 면역반응세포와 염증세포 침윤 증가, 자궁의 충혈 및 확대와 함께 관찰되었다. 이는 전형적인 염증 및 산화 스트레스성 원발성 월경통이 잘 유도되었음을 의미한다. 한편 이러한 소견은 계지복령환 열수 추출물의 투여에 의해 용량의존적으로 현저히 억제되었으며, 인도메타신의 억제 효과보다는 낮았다. 결 론: 이 연구에서 얻은 결과는 계지복령환 열수 추출물이 estradiol benzoate 및 oxytocin으로 유도된 원발성 월경통에 용량-의존적으로 유리한 진통 및 개선 활성을 가짐을 시사한다.

Objectives: The objective of this in vivo study is to observe the analgesic effects or improvements of Gyejibokryeong-hwan aqueous extracts (GJBRHe) on the Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) in rats as compared to those of Indomethacin (IND). Methods: The rats were administered with estradiol benzoate for 10 days and oxytocin 1 hour after the last 10th administration of estradiol benzoate to make the primary dysmenorrhea rat model. Gyejibokryeong-hwan aqueous extracts 500, 250 and 125 mg/kg were orally administrated, for 10 days once a day. Then the changes on the body weights and gains during experimental periods, uterine weights and gross inspections, abdominal writhing response for analgesic activities, uterus lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde (MDA) levels), antioxidant defense system - glutathione (GSH) contents, activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 mRNA expressions, were monitored with uterus histopathology and immunohistochemistry for tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). The results of Gyejibokryeong-hwan aqueous extracts were compared to those of Indomethacin adminstered rats. Results: As results of estradiol benzoate and oxytocin treatment, noticeable decreases of body weights and gains, uterus GSH contents, SOD and CAT activities, increases of abdominal writhing responses, uterus lipid peroxidation (MDA level), uterus weights, NF-κB and COX-2 mRNA expressions were observed with increases of TNF-α and iNOS immunolabeled cells, inflammatory cell infiltrations, congestion and enlargement of the uterus at gross and histopathological inspections. These means classic inflammatory and oxidative stress mediated primary dysmenorrhea are relatively well induced. However, these signs were favorably and dose-dependently inhibited by administration of three different dosages of Gyejibokryeong-hwan aqueous extracts, but lesser than those of Indomethacin. Conclusions: The results obtained in this study suggest that Gyejibokryeong-hwan aqueous extracts has favorable analgesic and refinement activities dose-dependently on the estradiol benzoate and oxytocin treatment-induced primary dysmenorrhea signs.
