  • Objective : In the present study, we examined whether Canavalia gladiata D.C. (CG) and Arctium lappa L., Redix (AL) mixture (CGAL), their components, lupeol and chicoric acid, regulate immune system and suppress the tumor in vitro and in vivo. Methods : LPS-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) were measured after treatment with CG extract (CGE), CGAL, lupeol, chicoric acid and lupeol and chicoric acid mixture (lupeol+CA) in Raw264.7 cell. To determine the effect of CGE on immune responses, immune cell population and IgG production were assessed in mice. To investigate the effect of CGAL and their component on anti-tumor activity, tumor volume and weight were measured, cell cycles and immune cell population were analyzed in MC38 injected tumor bearing mice. Also, NK cell activity was determined in splenocyte isolated from tumor bearing mice. Results : CGE, CGAL, lupeol, chicoric acid and lupeol+CA decreased the LPS-induced ROS and NO production without cell toxicity in RAW264.7 cells. CGE increased the immune cell populations of $CD4^+T$, $CD8^+T$ and macrophages in various immune organ of mice. In tumor bearing mice, CGAL, lupeol, chicoric acid and lupeol+CA suppressed tumor volume and weight. In cell cycle analysis, they decreased the percentages of S phase. In addition, CGAL, lupeol, chicoric acid and lupeol+CA immune cell populations of $CD4^+T$, $CD8^+Tcell$, NK cell and macrophage in tumor as well as NK cell activity. Conclusion : CGAL and its compounds may enhance immune responses and suppress tumor growth, and may be capable of developing health functional foods.

  • 동적인 네트워크 공격에 대응하기 위하여 인공 신경망, 유전 알고리즘, 면역 알고리즘과 같은 지능적 기술들이 공격 탐지에 적용되어 왔으며 최근에는 인공 면역 체계를 이용한 공격 탐지가 활발히 연구되고 있다. 기존의 인공면역체계 기반의 공격 탐지 기법들은 주로 자기 세포 집합과 비교를 통하여 항원을 인지하고 제거하는 부정 선택 원리만을 이용하였다. 그러나 실제 네트워크에서는 정상 상태와 비정상 상태가 거의 유사한 상태를 보이는 경우가 발생하므로 오탐지가 빈번히 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 새로운 인공면역체계 기반의 공격 탐지 및 대응 기법을 제안하고 그 성능을 평가한다. 제안하는 기법에서는 인간면역 체계에서 발생하는 수지상 세포와 T 세포의 면역 상호 작용을 적용하여 버퍼 점유율 변화를 이용한 검출기 집합을 발생시키고 공격 탐지 모듈과 대응 모듈을 다음과 같이 설계하였다. 첫째, self/non-self 구별을 위한 부정 선택 원리를 이용하여 검출기 집합을 발생시킨다. 둘째, 공격 탐지 모듈에서는 발생된 검출기 집합을 이용하여 네트워크 이상 상태를 탐지하고 경고 신호를 발생시킨다. 이때 오탐지를 줄이기 위하여 위험이론을 적용하며 위험도를 추측하기 위해 퍼지 이론을 이용한다. 마지막으로 공격 대응 모듈에서는 역추적된 공격 노드에 제어 신호를 전송 하여 공격 트래픽을 제한하도록 한다.

  • $\beta$-glucan is a fiber-type complex sugar (polysaccharide) derived from the cell wall of baker's yeast, oat and barley fiber, and many medicinal mushrooms, such as maitake. The primary uses of $\beta$-glucan are to enhance the immune system, to lower blood cholesterol levels and to treat tumor. $\beta$-glucan has no systemic toxicity in mice, therefore it needed clinical trail to prove efficacy and safety for human. The subjects total 56 healty volunteers were divided into two groups including taken $\beta$-glucan tablet group and placebo group. Subjects were taken two tablets per oral for 4 weeks. They had agreed to take part in this experiment, and didn't take any other clinical trail products. After 4 weeks blood of subjects were checked. The check list are TNF-$\alpha$, INF-$\gamma$, IL-2, IL-4, total WBC, differential WBC, RBC, hemoglobin, platelet, MCV, MCH, MCHC, HCT, Na, K, Ca, Cl, AST, ALT, ALP, $\gamma$-GTP, total protein, triglyceride, total cholesterol, total bilirubin, albumin, uric acid, creatinine, BUN, pH, protein, glucose, ketone body, blood, bilirubin. We evaluated efficacy by cytokines that compare before and after taking. Collected data were analyzed as two sample t-test, chi-square test and ANOVA using SAS V.9.1.This study results are that in TNF-$\alpha$ of $1^{st}$ efficacy measurement item, all of two groups figure were increased significantly compare to before figure. In IL4 of $2^{nd}$ efficacy measurement item, experimental group figure were decreased significantly but placebo group figure were increased. The conclusions show that based on the above results, $\beta$-glucan has favorable effect to enhance immune system, especially IL4 results showed that it has effect to improve the allergic immune system.

  • Purpose: This study was aimed to identify the effects of a self-foot reflexology massage on depression, stress responses and functions of the immune system of middle-aged women, Method: This study was a one group pretest-postlest experimental design and the data was collected from August $1^{st}$ 2004 to May $31^{st}$ 2005. The subjects consisted of 46 middle-aged women (40 - 64 years) who were recruited from the Community Health Center in Busan city. Subjects were not treated for 4 weeks, subsequently they were trained in self foot reflexology massage for 2 weeks, and then they did their own daily for 6weeks (2 days at the research center, 5 days at home).The outcome variables were measured 4 times, at baseline, pre training, after training, and after the intervention. The collected data was analyzed using repeated measure ANOVA by the SPSS/WIN program. Result: There was a statistically significant difference in depression, perceived stress, systolic blood pressure, natural-killer cells and Ig G. However, there was not a statistically significant difference in dyastolic blood pressure, pulse or serum cortisol. Conclusion: These results suggest that a self-foot reflexology massage could be utilized as an effective nursing intervention to reduce depression and stress responses, and to strengthen immune systems in middle-aged women.

  • Macrophage is the important cell for the immune system. Many of herbal drugs were searched about their immune-modulating activity. The purpose of this study is to investigate the biological effect of water extract from ARTEMISIAE ARGI FOLIUM (WAAF) on mouse macrophage Raw 264.7 cells. ARTEMISIAE ARGI FOLIUM was known to have the antibacterial, immune-enhancing, and anticoagulative properties. Cytotoxicity of WAAF was verified by MTT assay. The intracellular production of hydro peroxide ($H_2O_2$) by WAAF was examined. The productions of nitric oxide (NO) and $TNF-{\alpha}$ from Raw 264.7 cell by WAAF were also examined. WAAF showed no cytotoxicity on RAW 264.7 cells for 3 hours. WAAF increased the production of $H_2O_2$ in Raw 264.7 cells. WAAF decrease the production of NO from the cells at low concentrations but increased at high concentrations. WAAF increased the production of $TNF-{\alpha}$ from the cells. Therefore, It could be suggested that WAAF has the immune-modulating effect.

  • In order to investigate the of effects of nalbuphine on immune system in mice, we examined the various immunological parameters. After single oral administration of nalbuphine (130, 260, 390 mg/kg, i.p.) to female ICR mite, the weights of bodies and organs (thymus, spleen, liver, kidney), and hematological parameters were examined on day 2, 4, 6, and 8. The increased rate of body weight, relative weight of organ, and hematological parameters in nalbuphine -treated groups, were not significantly changed when compared with control group. However, number of WBC was decreased by the treatment of nalbuphine. To assess the effects of nalbuphine on humoral immune responses, splenic IgM plaque forming cell (PFC) and serum IgM were assayed. When nalbuphine wat administered after immunization with SRBC, but not before immunization, splenic IgM PFC and ,serum IgM level against SRBC were significantly lowered in a dole -dependent manner. These results indicate that the suppressive effects of nalbuphine on primary humoral immune response may be dependent on the timing of its administration relative to the initial antigenic sensitization.

  • The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of BITG on immune response in the young mice. BITG(500mg/kg) was administerd per orally once a day for 7 days to the young BALB/C(4 wks old)mice. The administrationo of BITG enhanced the cell viability of splenocytes, but did not affect that of thymocytes. In vitro system, BITG decreased the cell viability of thymocytes and splenocytes at the concentration of $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The administration of BITG did not affect DNA fragmentation of thymocytes, but decreased that of splenocytes. The administration of BITG increased the population of Thy1+ cell and CD4+CD8- cell in splenocytes. In addition, BITG decreased the production of NO and increased the lucigenin chemiluminescence from peritoneal macrophages. These results suggest that BITG enhances the specific-immune and nonspecific-immune response via increase of cell viability in splenocytes and of phagocytic activity in peritoneal macrophages.

  • Stress is known to influence the immune function via an effect on the central nervous system. To investigated the effects of Kwibitang water extract (KBT) on the specific immune response in C57BL/6 mice stressed by immobilization, we evaluated the changes in the cell viability, DNA fragmentation and subpopulation of thymocytes and splenocytes. KBT enhanced the cell viability of thymocytes and splenocytes decreased by immobilization stress. Also, KBT decreased DNA fragmentation of thymocytes and splenocytes increased by immobilization stress. KBT decreased the population of CD4/sup +/ cells and CD8/sup +/ cells in thymocytes and Thy1/sup +/ cells in splenocytes increased by immobolization stress, but increased the population of B220/sup +/ cells decreased by immobilization stress. In addition, KBT enhanced the production of ν-interferon and IL-2 decreased by immobilization stress. These results indicate that KBT may be useful for the prevention and treatment of stress via enhancement of the specific immune response

  • The intestine represents the largest and most elaborate immune system organ, in which dynamic and reciprocal interplay among numerous immune and epithelial cells, commensal microbiota, and external antigens contributes to establishing both homeostatic and pathologic conditions. The mechanisms that sustain gut homeostasis are pivotal in maintaining gut health in the harsh environment of the gut lumen. Intestinal epithelial cells are critical players in creating the mucosal platform for interplay between host immune cells and luminal stress inducers. Thus, knowledge of the epithelial interface between immune cells and the luminal environment is a prerequisite for a better understanding of gut homeostasis and pathophysiologies such as inflammation. In this review, we explore the importance of the epithelium in limiting or promoting gut inflammation (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease). We also introduce recent findings on how small RNAs such as microRNAs orchestrate pathophysiologic gene regulation.
