Macrophage activated by LPS/IFN-${\gamma}$ playa important role in imflammation. innate immunity and tumor immunity. The recent report has indicated that LPS treated bone marrow macrophages were induced apoptosis. but IFN-${\gamma}$ protects from apoptosis induced by several stimuli in complete medium condition (Jordi et al.. Immunity. Vo1.11. 103-113. 1999). (omitted)

Korean Sophora japonica has been found to posses an anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, Korean Sophora japonica extract, rutin, was used to know whether rutin inhibits to produce inflammatory mediators NO and TNF-$\alpha$ from the mouse peritoneal macrophages that were treated an inflammatory agent LPS. The rutin-1 hr pretreated macrophages were incubated with LPS for 0.5~5 hrs, and then collected the supernatant and the cell lysate for measurements of the level of iNOS, NO, TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA, TNF-$\alpha$, and p-NF-${\kappa}B$. Minimal and maximal effective doses of the rutin on them were 1 and $100{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The maximal effective dose of rutin certainly inhibted the productions of iNOS, NO, TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA, TNF-$\alpha$and p-NF-${\kappa}B$ from the LPS-treated macrophages (p<0.0001). Its $ED_{50}$ for inhibition of TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA and p-NF-${\kappa}B$ was $5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, and for iNOS, NO, and TNF-$\alpha$ was $10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The rutin did not have any cytotoxic effect. As the results, the Sophora japonica rutin could be a good candidate for an anti-inflammatory action.

본 연구는 제주에서 자생하는 산박하(Isodon inflexus (Thunb.) Kudo, I. inflexus (Thunb.) Kudo )의 80% 메탄올 추출물과 분획물, 그리고 분리 물질인 henryin의 항산화능 및 항염증에 관하여 조사한 것이다. 항산화 효과는 DPPH 라디칼 소거, xanthine oxidase 억제 및 superoxide radical 소거 활성 측정을 통하여 수행할 수 있는데, 산박하 추출물의 효능을 측정한 결과 superoxide radical 소거 활성에서 에틸아세테이트 분획물과 부탄올 분획물의 $IC_{50}$값이 각각 $0.9{\mu}g/mL$, $0.2{\mu}g/mL$로 대조군인 allopurinol ($2.2{\mu}g/mL$)에 비해 우수한 억제 효능을 나타내었다. RAW 264.7 세포주를 사용한 항염 효능 평가에서, 에틸아세테이트 분획물이 강한 NO 억제 효과를 나타내었고, 이 분획으로부터 순수 분리하여 구조 동정된 물질인 henryin 역시 농도 의존적으로 NO 억제시킴을 확인하였다. 특히, 에틸아세테이트 분획물과 henryin은 iNOS, COX-2와 염증관련 cytokine인 TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-$1{\beta}$의 mRNA 발현을 농도 의존적으로 억제하였다. 이상의 결과들로부터 산박하 에틸아세테이트 추출물이 항산화 및 항염증 효능을 갖는 화장품 원료로서 개발 가능성이 있고 henryin은 기능성 지표물질로 활용될 수 있음이 시사되었다.

Glycyrrhizae Radix, the dried roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra or Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fischer(Legumino-sae), has been used as a medicine for treatment of imflammation, arthritis, respiratory ailment, skin diseases and liver problems. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of 70% ethanol extract, 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid, glycyrol and carbenoxolone disodium from Glycyrrhizae Radix on gastritis and gastric cancer. Using these materials, we tested antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori, antigastritic activity for HCI-ethanol-induced gastric lesion and the pylorus ligated gastric secretion with rats, and cell viability in gastric cancer cell. 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid and carbenoxolone disodium decreased the volume of gastric secretion and acid output in pylorus ligated rats. Also, carbenoxolone disodium had a strong effect of antibacterial activity on H. pylori. In addition 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrol reduced cell viability in human gastric cancer cells(AGS and SNU638 cell) in dose-dependent manner. The reduction of total acid output and gastric secretion as well as the anti-bacterial activity against H. pylori might account for the antigastritic effects of carbenoxolone disodium.
