본 연구는 magnolol에 의한 UVB 유도 세포 손상의 복구를 조사하였다. 우리는 약물재배치를 위해 STAT3 기작을 분석하였고, magnolol HDF 세포에서 세포 생존력을 향상시키며, STAT3의 억제제인 것을 확인하였다. IL-6, UVB 및 IFNγ로 처리 된 HDF 세포는 Jak2 및 인산화 된 STAT3 (p-STAT3)의 높은 발현을 나타냈다. Magnolol 의 처리는 UVB 유도 세포에서 Jak2 및 p-STAT3의 발현을 감소시킬 수 있었다. 또한, UVB- 손상된 세포 성장은 용량 의존적 방식으로 재 활성화 및 magnolol 과의 상관 관계가 상당히 증가되었다. UVB 처리 된 HDF 세포에 대한 AG490 (Jak2 억제제) 처리와 비교하여, 세포 증식이 유의하게 증가 하였다. 우리는 AG490 및 magnolol 이 TNF-α 농도를 감소시키는 것을 확인했다. Western blot (단백질 수준)은 오직 magnolol 처리 된 세포에서만 Jak2 및 p-STAT3 발현의 감소를 나타냈고, Jak2, p-STAT3 및 SOCS3의 발현은 또한 magnolol 처리한 세포에서만 증가하였다. 세포를 magnolol 및 ML385 (NRF2 억제제)로 동시 처리시 세포 증식 및 NRF2 발현을 감소시켰다. MMP9의 양은 magnolol 및 ML385 로의 처리에 의해 증가되었다. 종합적으로, 이들 결과는 NRF2, SOCS3, Jak2 및 STAT3의 발현을 조절함으로써 UVB 손상 후 세포를 회복시키는데 있어 magnolol의 가능성을 입증한다.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a primary type of liver cancer, is one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths worldwide. HCC patients have poor prognosis due to intrahepatic and extrahepatic metastasis. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is one of the major causes of various liver diseases including HCC. Among HBV gene products, HBV X protein (HBx) plays an important role in the development and metastasis of HCC. However, the mechanism of HCC metastasis induced by HBx has not been elucidated yet. In this study, for the first time, we report that HBx interacts with the suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) which negatively controls NF-κB by degrading p65, a subunit of NF-κB. NF-κB activates the transcription of factors associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a crucial cellular process associated with invasiveness and migration of cancer cells. Here, we report that HBx physically binds to SOCS1, subsequently prevents the ubiquitination of p65, activates the transcription of EMT transcription factors and enhance cell migration and invasiveness, suggesting a new mechanism of HBV-associated HCC metastasis.

식물은 반휘발성유기화합물(Semivolatile organic compounds : 이하 SOCs)의 지구적인 순환과 먹이 연쇄에 있어서 중요한 역할을 한다. 또한 식물은 대기중 가스상 SOCs을 보유하고 입자상 SOCs를 제거하는 역할을 하기 때문에 대기를 정화하는데 중요한 기능을 한다(Lorber et al, 1993). SOCs 화합물 중 PCBs와 BHCs는 친지질성(lipophilic) 유기염소계 화합물로 식물의 뿌리를 통해서는 흡입되지 않고 대기중에서 식물잎의 표면에 존재하는 지질에 침착되므로 식물잎에 침착된 오염물질은 대기의 농도에 의존한다. (중략)

Toll-like receptors (TLR) 7 and 9 transduce a cellular signal through the MyD88-dependent pathway and induce the production of inflammatory mediators against microbial nucleotide components. The repeated stimulation of TLR4 leads to endotoxin tolerance, but the molecular mechanisms of tolerance induced through the costimulation of individual TLR has not yet been established, although endosomal TLRs share signaling pathways with TLR4. In the present study, mouse macrophages were simultaneously stimulated with the TLR7 agonist, gardiquimod (GDQ), and the TLR9 agonist, CpG ODN 1826, to examine the mechanism and effector functions of macrophage tolerance. Compared with individual stimulation, the costimulation of both TLRs reduced the secretion of TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-6 through the delayed activation of the NF-${\kappa}B$ pathway; notably, IL-10 remained unchanged in costimulated macrophages. This tolerance reflected the early induction of suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1), according to the detection of elevated TNF-${\alpha}$ secretion and restored NF-${\kappa}B$ signaling in response to the siRNA-mediated abrogation of SOCS-1 signaling. In addition, the restimulation of each TLRs using the same ligand significantly reduced the expression of both TLRs in endosomes. These findings revealed that the costimulation of TLR7 and TLR9 induced macrophage tolerance via SOCS-1, and the restimulation of each receptor or both TLR7 and TLR9 downregulated TLR expression through a negative feedback mechanisms that protects the host from excessive inflammatory responses. Moreover, the insufficient and impaired immune response in chronic viral infection might also reflect the repeated and simultaneous stimulation of those endosomal TLRs.

Hesperidin (HES) is a bioflavonoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic properties. IL-6 is well known as a primary proinflammatory cytokine that contributes to impaired insulin signaling in liver. This study was to investigate whether HES improves IL-6-mediated impairment of insulin sensitivity in liver. Hepa-1c1c7 cells were pre-treated with 50 and $100{\mu}M$ HES in complete media for 1 h and then cultured in the presence or absence of IL-6 (20 ng/ml). These results demonstrated that HES restored IL-6-suppressed expression of IRS-1 protein, downregulated IL-6-increased expression of CRP and SOCS-3 mRNA, and inhibited LPS-induced production of IL-6 in Hepa-1c1c7 cells. These findings indicate that HES may ameliorate hepatic insulin resistance via improvement of IL-6-mediated impaired insulin signaling in hepatocytes.
