본 연구는 참치의 석유 에텔 추출물로 부터 항암 효과가 있는 활성 성분을 분리 정제하고, 흰생쥐의 임파모 세포인 LI210 과 P388, 인체 장암세포인 HCT-48, HT-29 및 HRT-18를 대상으로 단계별로 얻어지는 성분의 항암 활성올 측정하고, 그 물질의 생체내에서의 작용 기전을 밝히기 위해 여러가지 면역학적 실험을 수행하였다. In vitro배양액에서의 인체 결장암세포인 H HCT-48에 대해, crude extract는 배양액 1ml강 $60\mu\textrm{g}$ 첨가시 증식이 2배로 억제되었으며(1 unit), 이를 column chromatography 수행하여 얻은 fraction D의 1 unit은 $2 22\mu\textrm{g}$이며, 다시 TLC를 하여 얻은 Spot I 의 1 unit은 $9\mu\textrm{g}$으로서 정제 했을때 277배 증가하였다. Spot I 은 GC/ M5에 의해 7가지 성분이 섞여있는 혼합물로서 이 중 4가지 생분은 $C_{14:0},\;C_{16:0},\;C_{17:1},\;및\;C_{18:0}$인 지방산으로 확인이 되었으며, 나머지 3가지는 지방 성분으로 분자식은 확인되지 않았다. 다른 인체 장암 세포인 HT-29과 HRT-18에 대한 crude extract의 1 unit은 $64\mu\textrm{g}\;및\;54\mu\textrm{g}$이었으며 frattion D의 1 unit에 해당하는 양은 두 세포 모두 약 $34\mu\textrm{g}$이었다. 또한, 생쥐의 백혈병 성 임파모 세포인 L1210과 P388의 경우 crude extract의 1 unit에 해당하는 양은 $2-2.5\mu\textrm{g}$이며, fraction D의 경우는 $1.2-1.4\mu\textrm{g}$으로서 참치 추출물의 세포 종식 억제력은 백혈병성 임파모세포에서 인체 장암세포보다 높았으며, 암세포의 종류에 따라 효과의 차이가 있었다. 참치 추출물(fraction D)을 첨가한 배양액에서 배양한 HCT-48 세포획 크기 분포도는 배양시간이 경과함에 따라 세포의 크기가 작아지며, 현미경 사진에서 보면 본래의 형태가 위축되거나, 세포의 주위가 흐트러지면서 사면 현상을 보였다. 참치 석유 에텔 추출물에는 DHA가 18.8%를 차지 하며 EPA는, 3.25% 포함되어 있었다. 대조군 생쥐에 비해 S-180을 접종한 후 참지 추출물을 투여한 생쥐에서 용혈반 형성 세포수와 혈청 단백질 중 immunoglobulin의 relative %가 현저히 증가되었다. 그러나 비장의 자연 살해 세포의 활성에는 변화를주지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 보아, 참치의 석유 에델 추출물중에 in vitro에서 인체 장암세포 및 백혈병성 임파모세포의 증식 억제 및 생체내에서 면역 증강 효과를 나타내는 성분이 존재함을 알 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 대두와 검정콩에 속하는 흑태, 서목태 및 서리태의 항돌연변이 및 암세포 증식 억제 활성을 비교하였다. Ames test를 이용한 항돌연변이 실험에서 간접돌연변이원인 $AFB_1$에 대해 모든 종류의 콩 메탄올 추출물들은 농도 의존적으로 돌연변이 억제 효과가 증가하였다(p<0.05). 대두 메탄올 추출물보다는 검정콩들인 흑태, 서목태 및 서리태 메탄올 추출물에 의한 효과가 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 검정콩 중에서 약콩이라고 불리는 서목태에 의한 항돌연변이 효과가 높아 첨가농도 5 mg/plate일 때 82%의 효과를 나타내었다. 직접 돌연변이원인 MNNG에 대한 각 종 콩 메탄올 추출물들의 항돌연변이성 실험을 한 결과, $AFB_1$에 대한 효과와 유사하게 검정콩중 서목태에 의한 효과가 높았으며 첨가농도 2.5 및 5 mg/plate일 때부터 각각 58% 및 61%로 돌연변이를 억제시켰다. 인체 암세포를 이용하여 대두 및 검정콩 메탄올 추출물들에 의한 암세포 증식 억제 효과를 검토한 결과, 모든 종류의 콩 메탄올 추출물(첨가농도 1 mg/ml)을 인체 위암세포(AGS)에 처리했을 때 50% 이상의 암세포 증식 억제 효과를 나타내었고 대두보다는 검정콩에 의한 효과가 높았으며 흑태, 서목태 및 서리태 메탄올 추출물은 각각 61%, 70% 및 65%의 암세포 증식 억제효과를 나타내었다. 인체 결장암세포(HT-29)의 경우, 검정콩 메탄올 추출물에 의한 효과가 대두보다 높은 경향을 나타내었으나 서목태 메탄올 추출물을 제외하고는 유의적 차이는 살펴 볼 수가 없었다. 인체 간암세포(Hep 3B)에 의한 증식 억제효과는 이상의 암세포에 대한 효과보다 다소 낮았으나 흑태, 서목태 및 서리태 메탄올 추출물은 첨가농도 1 mg/ml에서 각각 51%, 59% 및 52%의 저해효과를 나타내어 여기서도 서목태에 의한 억제효과가 높았다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과로부터 Ames test를 이용한 항돌연변이 및 인체 암세포 증식 억제 실험에서 검정콩 메탄올 추출물에 의한 억제 효과가 높았고 특히 소립 검정콩에 해당하는 서목태에 의한 생리활성이 우수하였으므로 검정콩에 많이 함유된 색소에 의한 효과라고 추정되며 여기에 대한 향후 연구가 필요하다.

In order to develop as a natural source of anticancer materials of Cudrania tricuspidata, the cytotoxicity of methanol extracts by harvesting parts and times against 8 cell lines including 293 (normal kidney cells) and A-431 (epidermoid carcinoma cells) were investigated using MTT assay. All harvesting parts had hardly cytotoxicity against 293. And methanol extracts of stem bark and root bark showed very high cytotoxicities against 7 cancer cell lines. The cytotoxicity was the highest against HeLa (cervix adenocarcinoma cells) and followed by MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma cells), AGS (stomach adenocarcinoma cells), HT-29 (colon adenocarcinoma cells), HepG2 (hepatoblastoma cells), A549 (lung carcinoma cells) and A-431. By the way, leaf extract had a cytotoxicity against only AGS and ripe fruit extract had no cytotoxicity. Among harvesting times, the cytotoxicity of root bark were high from April to September but that of stem bark showed a little difference. These results showed that anticancer activities of Cudrania tricuspidata extracts were eventful changes by harvesting parts and times.

In order to find out anticancer activity of Korean pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), the cytotoxicity against 8 cell lines including 293 (normal kidney cells) and A-431 (epidermoid carcinoma cells) of extracts by extraction solvents and plant parts were investigated using MTT assay. Also the correlation between content of capsaicin known as anticancer ingredient and cytotoxicity of extracts from pepper were analyzed. The distilled water extracts from seed and germinated seed showed very high cytotoxicity against 6 cancer cell lines including A549 (lung carcinoma cells), AGS (stomach adenocarcinoma cells), HeLa (cervix adenocarcinoma cells), HepG2 (hepatoblastoma cells), HT-29 (colon adenocarcinoma cells), and MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma cells). But 80% ethanol and methanol extracts showed cytotoxicity against 293 and AGS. The $RC_{50}$, that was, the concentration of sample required for 50% reduction of cell viability, of seed and germinated seed extracts against AGS were $33.4{\sim}389.1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ and $63.9{\sim}1,316.7{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, respectively, so anticancer activity was higher in seed than in germinated seed. In capsaicin contents, seed with high cytotoxicity and pericarp with a little cytotoxicity contained $47.4{\sim}1,260.0{\mu}g/g$ and $58.3{\sim}1,498.0{\mu}g/g$, respectively. As these results, the correlation was not between cytotoxicity and capsaicin content.

Cytotoxic and antimutagenic effects of a novel cis-$\varepsilon$-viniferin and five known stilbenes, transresveratrol, trans-$\varepsilon$-viniferin, gnetin H, suffruticosols A and B, isolated from the seeds of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. (Paeoniaceae) were determined against five different cancer cell lines, and mutagenicity of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, respectively. Six stilbenes showed cytotoxic activity in a dose-dependent manner, and especially did potent cytotoxic activity against C6 (mouse glioma) cancer cell with $IC_{50}$ values ranging from 8.2 to $20.5{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$. trans-Resveratrol showed significant cytotoxic activity against HepG2 (liver hepatoma) and HT-29 (colon) human cancer cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values of 11.8 and 25.2 g/ml, respectively. In contrast, trans-$\varepsilon$-viniferin and cis--viniferin, and gnetin H exhibited marked cytotoxic activity against Hela (cervicse) and MCF-7 (breast) human cancer cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values of 20.4, 21.5, and $12.9{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$, respectively. However, suffruticosol A and B had less cytotoxic effect against all cancer cells except C6. Meanwhile, six stilbenes exerted antimutagenic activity in a dose-dependent fashion. Of them, trans-resveratrol exhibited the strongest antimutagenic effect against MNNG with $IC_{50}$ value of $27.0{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/plate$, while other five resveratrol oligomers also did moderate antimutagenic activity with $IC_{50}$ values ranging from 31.7 to $35.2{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/plate$.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: In Asia, various medicinal plants have been used as the primary sources in the health care regimen for thousands of years. In recent decades, various studies have investigated the biological activity and potential medicinal value of the medicinal plants. In this study, 100 methanol extracts from 98 plant species were evaluated for their biological activities. MATERIALS/METHODS: The research properties, including 1,1-diphenyl-2-pic-rylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-tyrosinase inhibitory effects, anti-inflammatory activity, and anticancer activity were evaluated for the selected extracts. RESULTS: Fifteen of the extracts scavenged more than 90% of the DPPH radical. Among the extracts, approximately 20 extracts showed a strong inhibitory effect on ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, while most had no effect on ${\alpha}$-tyrosinase. In addition, 52% of the extracts showed low toxicity to normal cells, and parts of the extracts exhibited high anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities on the murine macrophage cell (RAW 264.7) and human colon cancer cell (HT-29) lines, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings may contribute to further nutrition and pharmacological studies. Detailed investigations of the outstanding samples are currently underway.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Licorice has been shown to possess cancer chemopreventive effects. However, glycyrrhizin, a major component in licorice, was found to interfere with steroid metabolism and cause edema and hypertension. The roasting process of licorice modifies the chemical composition and converts glycyrrhizin to glycyrrhetinic acid. The purpose of this study was to examine the anti-carcinogenic effects of the ethanol extract of roasted licorice (EERL) and to identify the active compound in EERL. MATERIALS/METHODS: Ethanol and aqueous extracts of roasted and un-roasted licorice were prepared. The active fraction was separated from the methylene chloride (MC)-soluble fraction of EERL and the structure of the purified compound was determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The anti-carcinogenic effects of licorice extracts and licochalcone A was evaluated using a MTT assay, Western blot, flow cytometry, and two-stage skin carcinogenesis model. RESULTS: EERL was determined to be more potent and efficacious than the ethanol extract of un-roasted licorice in inhibiting the growth of DU145 and MLL prostate cancer cells, as well as HT-29 colon cancer cells. The aqueous extracts of un-roasted and roasted licorice showed minimal effects on cell growth. EERL potently inhibited growth of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast, B16-F10 melanoma, and A375 and A2058 skin cancer cells, whereas EERL slightly stimulated the growth of normal IEC-6 intestinal epithelial cells and CCD118SK fibroblasts. The MC-soluble fraction was more efficacious than EERL in inhibiting DU145 cell growth. Licochalcone A was isolated from the MC fraction and identified as the active compound of EERL. Both EERL and licochalcone A induced apoptosis of DU145 cells. EERL potently inhibited chemically-induced skin papilloma formation in mice. CONCLUSIONS: Non-polar compounds in EERL exert potent anti-carcinogenic effects, and that roasted rather than un-roasted licorice should be favored as a cancer preventive agent, whether being used as an additive to food or medicine preparations.

Raw meat of mackerel (Scomber japonicus) was salted by refined, sun-dried, bamboo, and KC1-added bamboo salts. Antimutagenic activity on N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in Ames test and growth inhibitory effects of AGS human gastric and HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells were investigated using methanol extracts of the salted mackerels. Mackerel salted sun-dried, bamboo, and KC1-added bamboo salts used increased the antimutagenic activities against MNNG, however, the sample treated with refined salt reduced the antimutagenic activity. Inhibitory effects of the salted-mackerels on the growth of human cancer cells were increased as dose dependent pattern. Mackerel salted with refined salt activated the growth of AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells, but mackerel salted with sun-dried, bamboo, and KC1-added bamboo salts kept or increased anticancer effect compared to the raw mackerel. Mackerel salted with KC1-added bamboo salt led to the highest antimutagenic and anticancer activities. These results suggest that antimutagenic and anticancer effects of mackerel during manufacturing of the salted-mackerel could be enhanced by using different kind of salts such as bamboo, or KC1-added bamboo salts.
