To establish the optimal conditions for the manufacture of high absortive cellulose film(CF) originated from Styela clava tunic(SCT), the physicochemical properties included absorption was measured in CFs prepared under the various conditions. The highest absorption was observed for SCT-CF20 prepared from the cellulose solution dissolved at $80^{\circ}C$ for 20min, although the filtration treatment did not induce any significance alteration. Also, the absorption was higher in SCT-CF20-F prepared by the freeze drying than SCT-CF20-N(ambient air drying) and SCT-CF20-H(heat drying). The addition of porogen($NaHCO_3$) induced an increase of absorption in SCT-CF20-PF relative to SCT-CF20-F, while the number of interconnected porous structures was enhanced in SCT-CF20-PF. Furthermore, a high level of SK-MEL-2 cells viability was observed in SCT-CF20-PN and SCT-CF20-PF cultured group. These results show that SCT-CF may have high absorption and biocompatibility when prepared from SCT cellulose solution dissolved at $80^{\circ}C$ for 20min after addition of porogen and then subjected to freeze drying.

아토피성 피부염은 만성 재발성 염증성 피부질환으로 피부장벽기능의 이상과 환경유발인자에 대한 피부과민성과 연관되어 있다. 이전의 연구에서는 아토피성피부염에 효과적인 약용식물 추출물을 발굴하기 위하여 노회, 자회지정, 석류, 석곡 추출물들의 세포독성, 항산화, 항염, 항알레르기 효과를 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 지질다당류로 활성화시킨 대식세포 RAW26.7 에 대한 약용식물 추출물들의 항염작용을 보다 상세하게 검토하여 항염작용의 근본적인 분자기전을 확인하고자 하였다. 역전사중합효소연쇄반응분석(reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis) 결과, 석류, 석곡, 노회는 염증성 사이토카인인 IL-6 와 IL-$1{\beta}$ 유전자발현을 현저하게 억제시켰으며 자화지정은 영향이 없었다. 형질주입과 발광효소분석(transfection and luciferase analysis) 결과, 약용식물 모두가 전사 핵인자 카파비(NF-${\kappa}B$)의 활성화를 억제시켰다. 웨스턴 블럿 분석(western blot analysis) 결과, 노회는 JNK MAP 인산화효소의 활성화를 차단하였지만 p38 MAP 인산화효소의 활성화는 차단하지 못하였다. 반면에 자화지정, 석류, 석곡은 JNK MAP 인산화효소뿐만 아니라 p38 MAP 인산화효소의 활성화도 차단하였다. 이들 실험결과들은 노회, 자화지정, 석류, 석곡은 항염효능을 가지고 있으며 따라서 아토피성 피부염의 증상을 경감 또는 완화시키는 잠재력이 있음을 보여 준다.

Background: Salvia has been widely cultivated for use in flavoring and folk medicines in many countries, including Korea and China. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory activity and the underlying active compounds of Salvia extract and its fractions. Methods and Results: The anti-inflammatory activity was measured by assessing the inhibition of cysteinyl leukotriene production in rat basophilic leukemia (RBL)-2H3 mast cells. Salvia plebeia R. Br. was found to have the most potent inhibitory activity on leukotriene production than S. japonica and S. chanroenica had. Fifty percent ethanol extracts of S. plebeia R. Br. were successively partitioned with n-hexane, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, 1-butanol and water. The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction showed stronger anti-inflammatory activity than other solvent fractions did. The EtOAc fraction was subjected to silica gel column chromatography elution with a chloroform and methanol gradient system (100 : 1 ${\rightarrow}$ 1 : 1) yielding 10 fractions. Three kinds of fractions (chloroform:methanol = 20 : 1, 10 : 1 and 5 : 1) showed high inhibitory activity on leukotriene production. We confirmed the major compounds with anti-inflammatory activity from S. plebeia R. Br. Conclusions: In this study, the major components of S. plebeia that showed leukotriene production inhibitory activity were isolated using solvent extraction and silica gel column chromatography. Rosmarinic acid, hispidulin and luteolin were identified as the major compounds with anti-inflammatory effect.

Even though Ac/Ds gene-tagging systems have been established in many higher plants, maize is the only major plant in which short-distance transposition of Ac/Ds has been utilized to probe gene function. This study was performed to evaluate the efficiency of obtaining new alleles and functional revertants from Ds insertion loci in rice. By analyzing 1,580 plants and the progeny of selected lines, the insertion sites and orientations of Ds elements within 16 new heritable alleles of three rice loci were identified and characterized. Intragenic transposition was detected in both directions from the original insertion sites. The closest interval was 35 bp. Three of the alleles had two Ds elements in cis configuration in the same transcription units. We also analyzed the excision footprints of intragenic and extragenic transpositions in Ds-inserted alleles at 5 loci. The 134 footprints obtained from different plants revealed predominant patterns. Ds excision at each locus left a predominant footprint at frequencies of 30-75%. Overall, 66% of the footprints were 7-bp additions. In addition, 16% of the excisions left 0-, 3-, 6-, and 9-bp additions with the potential of conserving reading frame.

The first purpose of this study was to evaluate the scavenging capacity (SC) of DPPH and ABTS free radicals for ethanol extract (STR-E) and its active fractions from Sophora tonkinensis root (STR). Four different fractions from STR-E were prepared by using different types of solvents such as chloroform (STR-E-C), ethyl acetate (STR-E-EA), n-butanol (STR-E-B), and water (STR-E-W). STR-E-C showed the highest value of total phenolic content, while STR-E showed the highest value of total flavonoid and terpenoid content. In STR-E and its four fractions, STR-E-EA showed the strongest SC with the lowest SC50 values of the DPPH radicals and ABTS radicals. The second purpose of this study was to evaluate anti-inflammatory activity in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages treated with STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA, respectively. No cytotoxic effect to RAW 264.7 cells was observed at 20 ~ 25 ㎍/ml of STR-E, 10 ㎍/ml of STR-E-C, and 5 ㎍/ml of the STR-E-EA, presenting cell viability values close to that of the untreated control (100%). STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA significantly suppressed the LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) in a dose-dependent manner. Results of reverse-transcription (RT)-qPCR analysis showed that the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, IL-6, and IL-10 were observed in the LPS-stimulated macrophages at 4 h, 2 h, 12 h, 12 h, and 12 h, respectively. The peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 were significantly reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 20 ㎍/ml and 25 ㎍/ml of STR-E, respectively. In the case of IL-10, its peak mRNA level slightly increased without statistical significance. Compared with the LPS-stimulated macrophages, the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 10 ㎍/ml and 20 ㎍/ml of STR-E-C, respectively. In contrast, the peak mRNA level of IL-10 significantly increased at 8 h. Compared with the LPS-stimulated macrophages, the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 5 ㎍/ml and 10 ㎍/ml of STR-E-EA, respectively. In contrast, the peak mRNA level of IL-10 increased at 4 h. Taken together, our data indicated that STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA activate macrophages to secrete both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines.

배경: 악성종양에서 신생혈관 생성 및 당분해의 증가는 저산소 상태의 미세환경을 나타내며, 이는 종양의 침습성, 전이 및 환자의 예후와 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1(HIF-1)는 당원 수송체, 당분해 효소, 혈관내피세포 성장인자 등의 유전자의 전사를 활성화한다고 알려져 있다. 그리고 HIF-1의 전사 활성도는 HIF-$1{\alpha}$ 아단위의 표현이 조절되는 정도에 의존한다. 비소세포 폐암에서 HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 발현이 혈관 생성능, 종양세포 증식능 및 이상형 p53의 축적 등 종양의 생물학적 특성에 미치는 영향과 환자의 수술 후 예후와의 관계를 규명하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 1997년부터 1999년까지 비소세포 폐암으로 진단받고 전폐절제술 혹은 폐엽절제술을 시행 받은 59명의 폐암 환자들에서 얻어진 파라핀 조직 블록을 대상으로 하였다. ABC(avidin-biotin complex) 방법에 기초한 면역조직화학검사를 이용하여 암조직과 정상조직에서 HIF-$1{\alpha}$, VEGF(vascular endothelial growth factor), p53 단백의 발현을 조사하고, Ki-67의 발현을 이용한 증식지수를 측정하였다. HIF-$1{\alpha}$ 발현과 환자의 생존기간을 포함한 임상적-병리학적 변수들과의 상관관계, VEGF, p53의 발현과 증식지수와의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 결과: HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 과발현은 40.7%(24예/59예)였다. HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 과발현은 병리학적 TNM병기(p=0.004), T병기(p=0.020), N병기(p=0.004), 림프관/혈관 침범(p=0.019) 등과 관련이 있었다. 또 혈관내피세포 성장인자의 발현(p<0.001) 및 이상형의 p53의 발현(p=0.040)과 관련성이 있었다. Kaplan-Meier 생존분석에서 HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 과발현이 있는 환자의 5년 생존울은 22%로 HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 저발현 환자의 5년 생존율 61%에 비해 불량한 생존율을 보였고, 단변량분석과 다변량분석에서 HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 발현은 불량한 예후를 나타내는 인자로 관찰되었다. 결론: 이상의 결과로 비소세포 폐암 환자에서 HIF-$1{\alpha}$의 과발현은 종양내 신생혈관의 생성과 림프절 전이와 관련이 있는 표지자로 여겨지며, 수술 후 불량한 예후를 나타내었다.
