In this study, we evaluated the anti-cancer effect of extracts of leaves (ST-L) and branches (ST-B) from Sageretia theezans in human colorectal cancer cells. ST-L and ST-B significantly inhibited the proliferation of human colorectal cancer cells, SW480. ST-L and ST-B decreased cyclin D1 protein level through the induction of cyclin D1 proteasomal degradation via $GSK3{\beta}$-dependent threonine-286 phosphorylation of cyclin D1. In addition, ST-L and ST-B increased HO-1 protein through p38, ROS and $GSK3{\beta}$-dependent Nrf2 activation. These findings suggest that ST-L and ST-B may have great potential for the development of anti-cancer drug to treat human colorectal cancer.

본 연구는 최근 암세포 생장억제 효과가 입증되어 약용소재로서의 활용가치가 높은 상동나무 (Sageretia theezans)의 대량증식 연구의 기반을 마련하기 위해 삽수묘를 시기별로 채취하여 삽목실험을 실시하였다. 삽수묘는 제주 대정읍, 전남 완도 보길도, 청산도 인근에서 수집하였으며, 상동나무 삽목은 시기별로 2019년 3월 21일(춘계), 7월 22일(하계), 9월 2일(추계)에 실시하였다. 토양조건은 모래, 원예용 상토, 모래와 원예용 상토를 1 : 1 배율로 섞은 토양에 각각 치상하였다. 삽목 후 산림약용자원연구소 온 실에 약 100일간 보관하였으며 1일 2회 관수하여 관리하였다. 그 결과 춘계에 삽목한 삽수묘에서 66.4% 의 발근율로 나타났으며, 뿌리는 평균 17.5mm의 길이로 측정되었다. 하계는 27.4%의 발근율을 보였으 며, 뿌리는 평균 12.6mm의 발달을 보였다. 추계에는 29.6%의 발근율로 13.2mm의 뿌리 발달을 보였다. 상동나무는 춘삽이 추삽에 비해 발근율이 높고, 숙지삽이 상동나무 발근에 있어 유리한 것으로 사료된 다. 또한 토양은 모래에 삽목한 삽수묘가 60.3%로 가장 발근율이 높았으며, 그 다음으로 모래와 원예용 상토를 1 : 1 배율로 섞은 토양이 42.7%의 발근율을 보였다. 마지막으로 원예용 상토에서 25.4%의 발근 율을 보였다. 이는 상동나무 삽목시 배수가 양호한 상태가 뿌리 및 캘러스형성에 유리하게 작용하는 것 으로 사료된다.

In this study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effect of extracts of leaves (ST-L) and branches (ST-B) from Sageretia theezans in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. ST-L and ST-B significantly inhibited the production of the pro-inflammatory mediators such as NO, iNOS, COX-2, $IL-1{\beta}$ and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. ST-L and ST-B blocked LPS-induced degradation of $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$ and nuclear accumulation of p65, which resulted to the inhibition of $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation in RAW264.7 cells. ST-L and ST-B also attenuated the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 and JNK in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. In addition, ST-L and ST-B increased HO-1 expression in RAW264.7 cells, and the inhibition of HO-1 by ZnPP reduced the inhibitory effect of ST-L and ST-B against LPS-induced NO production in RAW264.7 cells. Inhibition of p38 activation and ROS elimination attenuated HO-1 expression by ST-L and ST-B, and ROS elimination inhibited p38 activation induced by ST-L and ST-B. ST-L and ST-B dramatically induced nuclear accumulation of Nrf2, but this was significantly reversed by the inhibition of p38 activation and ROS elimination. Collectively, our results suggest that ST-L and ST-B exerts potential anti-inflammatory activity by suppressing $NF-{\kappa}B$ and MAPK signaling activation, and activating HO-1 expression through the nuclear accumulation of Nrf2 via ROS-dependent p38 activation. These findings suggest that ST-L and ST-B may have great potential for the development of anti-inflammatory drug to treat acute and chronic inflammatory disorders.

상동나무(Sageretia theezans)는 갈매나무과 상동나무속 식물로 특이하게 늦가을에 꽃이 피고 봄에 열매가 익는 수종이며, 최근 암세포 생장억제 효과가 입증되고 제주와 전남 남해안 지역에서 예로부터 열매를 식용 및 약용하여 민속식물로서의 가치가 크다. 본 연구에서는 향후 약용소재로서의 가치가 높은 상동나무의 대량증식을 위하여 식물생장호르몬의 처리에 따른 효과적인 증식법을 구명하고자 실시하였다. 상동나무 삽수묘는 고흥, 완도 일대에서 2019년 3월 19일에 2년생 가지를 수집하였으며, 3월 20일 삽목을 실시하였다. IAA(250, 500, 1,000 ppm), IBA(250, 500, 1,000 ppm), NAA(250, 500, 1,000 ppm), 루팅(200배) 수용액에 50개의 삽수묘를 3분간 절단기부를 침지 후 모래에 치상하였으며, 무처리구는 바로 치상하였다. 각 삽수상은 온실에 보관 후 1일 2회씩 관수 하였으며 120일간 유지하였다. 그 결과 전체 66.4%의 발근율을 보였고 캘러스와 뿌리의 발달은 평균 17.5 mm의 길이를 보였다. IBA 처리구가 전반적으로 높은 발근율을 보였는데 그 중 500 ppm 처리구에서 가장 많은 41개 삽수묘의 부정근이 형성되어 82%의 발근율을 보였고, 평균 20.2 mm 길이의 뿌리가 생성되었다. IBA 1,000 ppm처리구에서도 38개의 삽수묘에서 캘러스 및 부정근이 형성되어 76%의 발근율을 보였다. 뿌리의 발달은 평균 18.4 mm로 IBA 500 ppm에 비해 길이가 짧았으나 뿌리의 길이가 삽수묘간 차이가 커 가장 긴 개체가 32.3 mm로 나타났다. NAA 500 ppm에서도 높은 발근율을 보였는데 32개의 삽수묘에서 부정근이 형성되어 64%의 발근율로 나타났다. 뿌리의 길이는 18.9 mm로 IBA 1,000 ppm에 비해 발근율은 낮았으나 뿌리의 발달은 평균 0.5 mm 높은 것으로 나타났다. 무처리구는 29개의 삽수묘가 캘러스 및 부정근이 형성되었으며 58%의 발근율로 나타났으며 IAA, IBA, NAA 처리구 모두 무처리구에 비해 높은 발근율을 보였다. 생장호르몬 당 발근율을 보면 IBA는 500 ppm, NAA는 500 ppm, IAA는 1,000 ppm에서 가장 높은 발근율을 보였다. 루팅 수용액 처리구는 60%의 발근율을 보여 루팅 200배 수용액 침지와 무처리는 비슷한 수치의 발근율로 나타나 루팅은 상동나무 삽목 발근촉진제로 효과가 없는 것으로 확인되었다.

This study was carried out to analyze the vegetation and soil characteristic, and ordination of the Ilex cornuta population, in the Yongsu Reservoir of Jeju Island. The Ilex cornuta population was classified into Cudrania tricuspidata dominant population, Sageretia theezans dominant population, and Mallotus japonicus dominant population. In the study sites, soil organic matter(O.M.), total nitrogen(T.N.), available phosphorus($P_2O_5$), changeable potassium, changeable calcium, changeable magnesium and soil pH were 14.62~17.35%, 0.39~0.51%, 8.83~20.15mg/kg, 0.44~0.64cmol+/kg, 5.79~6.87cmol+/kg, 3.43~4.19cmol+/kg and 5.41~5.80, respectively. The Mallotus japonicus dominant population was mainly found in the high percentage of available phosphorus, organic matter. It was also showed the lowest concentration of exchangeable K, and Mg. Cudrania tricuspidata dominant population and Sageretia theezans dominant population were found in the low percentage of available phosphorus, organic matter and there were also showed the highest concentration of exchangeable K, and Mg. It is one of the evidence that Ilex cornuta community indicated an intensive site management likes clearance of creeper is proper habitat management protocol. Thus, further researches should be followed to determine the other disturbance factors as management techniques.

Acidic hydrolysis conditions prior to HPLC analysis of plant flavonoids was investigated by response surface methodology (RSM), using leaves of Ginkgo biloba L. Ten hydrolysis conditions using 0.5-2.5 M HCl and 0.5-2.5 hr hydrolysis time were chosen to form a central composite rotatable design (CCRD), and optimization by RSM was achieved by measuring myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol levels by HPLC. Optimum hydrolysis condition was 1.5 M HCl for 1.5 hr. The levels of flavonoids obtained under the condition were in good agreement with predicted maximum values, with yields of more than 95%. These optimum hydrolysis condition was applied to analysis of flavonoid content in the leaves of Camellia sinensis, Ficus carica, and Sageretia theezans.

The Jeongdori windbreak forests of Wando island, located between the sea and the land, are very important as ecological succession areas that protect cultivated lands and fishing villages. Among the Jeongdori windbreak forests, the rocky seashore areas are occupied by Sageretia theezans mantle community, and their inner sections by sub-tree layers such as Ligustrum japonicum and Ligustrum obtusifolium. More specifically, the inner sections of the rocky seashore areas were found to be the habitat of Ligustrum japonicum-Quercus variabilis community, Ligustrum jarponicum-Viburnum erosum community, Ligustrum japonicum-Cinnamomum japonicum community, Cinnamomum japonicum-Carpinus tschonoskii community, and Pinus densiflora-Viburnum erosum community. The average height of tree layers of the Jeongdori windbreak forests is 10.3m, and the average diameter at breath height are 30.3cm. Though the windbreak forests was artificially made, it is now virtually natural forest and deserves protection for ecological reasons. Designated as a scenic spot 3, it is always in the danger of being damaged by frequent tourist visits. So the Jeongdori windbreak forest needs to be continuous maintenance and management by the National Park Service. Considering of the precious cultural treasures of the famous pebble stones covering Gugyedeung and the naturality of the Jeongdori windbreak forests, the Jeongdori windbreak forests as a scenic spot have to designated as the national monument in future and will preserve by the Cultural Properties Administration.
