Fermented materials with enterobacteria isolated from fusiform fish, have strong anti-angiogenesis effect and anti-cell adhesion effect. PLM-f74 got from 74th fraction of size exclusion chromatography from fermented material, showed strong anti-cell adhesion effect between HUVECs and U937 monocytic cell. Adhesion of U937 cell to HUVEC stimulated with IL-1b was clearly inhibited by PLM-f74 in a dose-dependent manner by 12.1, 21.2, 50.9, and 78.2%, when U937 cells treated with each of the PLM-f74 and stimulated with PMA (100 mg/L) was added onto untreated and unstimulated HUVECs, adhesion was observed by 15.8, 31.9, 70.8, and 102%, when both cell types were pretreated with PLM-f74, the adhesion was prominently decreased by 83.7, 99.2, 110, and 120.8%, with 0.74, 3.7, 7.4, and 18.5ug/mL of PLM-f74, respectively. PLM-f74, also, reduced IL-1-stimulated HUVEC expression of adhesion molecules, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and E-selectin dose-dependently by ELISA method.

본 실험은 동백꽃의 효능을 알아보기 위하여, 동백꽃을 에틸알콜로써 추출한 후 극성이 다른 다양한 유기용매로 분획하여 나온 fraction으로 신생혈관생성 억제, cell cytotoxity, 세포부착분자에 대한 기능을 ELISA, westen blot 등으로 조사하였다. 신생혈관생성 억제 효과는 특히butanol 층에서 70.2%로 가장 높았으며, acetone층이 54.2%, 그리고 ethylacetate층이 37.0%, chloroform층이 21.2%로 유의성 있는 억제효과가 있었다. 특히 동백꽃의 butanol층은 신생혈관생성억제제로서 좋은 효과가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 그리고, 추출물의 농도별로 cell cytotoxity를 조사한 결과 농도가 200 ug/ml 이하에서 세포독성은 나타나지 않았다. Cell adhesion 저해율은 추출물의 농도 200 μg/mL 에서 ICAM-1은 52.9%, VCAM-1은 62.5%, 그리고 E-selectin은 35.7%로 나타났으며 동백꽃의 추출물의 성분 증가에 따라 발현이 감소됨으로써 cell adhesion을 저해하는 것으로 확인되었다. Westen blot 에서 첨가한 동백꽃 추출물의 농도가 높아질수록 신호전달분자의 발현이 약해지는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 따라서 신호전달 분자는 동백꽃 추출물에 의해서 신호전달이 차단되며, NF-KB를 억제함으로서 신생혈관생성을 저해하는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 동백꽃 추출물은 항암제 및 항비만제제로서 유용할 것으로 판단된다.

The halophilic enterobacteria, Enterobacteria cancerogenus, was isolated from the intestines of the fusiform fish (Trachurus japonicus) to yield a protein-like material termed PLM-f74. PLM-f74 was characterized by strong inhibition ratios to angiogenesis (82.8% at the concentration of $18.5{\mu}g/ml$) and elevated antioxidative capacities with low toxicity. The PLM-f74 is a glycoprotein comprised of saccharides and amino acids. PLM-f74 inhibited cell adhesion that non-activated U937 monocytic cell adhesion to HUVECs activated with $IL-1{\beta}$ by 78.0%, and the adherence of U937 cells treated with the PLM-f74 and stimulated with $IL-1{\beta}$ to unstimulated HUVECs decreased by 102%. When both cell types were pretreated with PLM-f74, the adhesion of U937 cells to $IL-1{\beta}$-stimulated HUVECs was completely suppressed by 121% at a concentration of $18.5{\mu}g/ml$. PLM-f74 blocked signal pathways from VEGFR2, PI3K, ${\beta}$-catenin, and VE-cadherin to NF-kB, based on western bolt analysis. It also inhibited IL-l-stimulated HUVEC expression of the adhesion molecules, ICAM-l by 40%, VCAM-l by 60%, and E-selectin by 70% at the same concentration noted above. New anti-angiogenic and anti-cell adhesion materials showing elevated antioxidative capacities, and non-toxicity may be expected from these results.

Objectives : Samhwangsasim-tang (SHSST) is a traditional Korean medication, which has been used in Korea for treatment of hypertension and chest pain. Hyperlipidemia and inflammation could influence hypertension and chest pain. This study investigated whether and how SHSST reduces the hyperlipidemia and inflammation related to high-cholesterol diet-induced obesity in rats. Methods : Mice were divided randomly into four groups: the normal diet group, high-cholesterol diet group, low dose treatment group supplemented with 30% ethanol extract of SHSST (L) and high dose treatment group supplemented with 80% ethanol extract of SHSST (H). L and H groups were orally administered with SHSST at the dose of 50mg/kg a day respectively and others were administered with the same volume of physiological saline. Results : Administration of SHSST resulted in a decrease in serum levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein. Expression of hepatic genes(SREBP2, LXR, LDLR, and HMG-CoA) related with cholesterol metabolism was also suppressed. In addition, SHSST decreased the expression of inflammation-related gene (TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, TGF-${\beta}1$ and fibronectin). Histological examinations also showed that the size of the adipocytes was smaller in the SHSST treated group than in the high-colesterol diet group. In an in vitro study, SHSST inhibited the production of nitric oxide in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusions : This study indicates that SHSST has anti-hyperlipidemia and anti-inflammatory effects. It may also suggest that SHSST may be alternative therapy for treatment of hyperlipidemia and its complications.

Objectives: The seeds from Arctium lappa have been considered for its various pharmacological properties, which include anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and anti-viral activities. Methods: In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of the ethanol extract from the seeds of Arctium lappa L (EAL) on cytokine-induced vascular inflammation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Results: Pretreatment with EAL significantly decreased tumor necrosis factor alpha ($TNF-{\alpha}$)-induced cell adhesion molecules expression such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and endothelial-selectin (E-selectin) in a dose-dependent manner. Cell adhesion assay showed that pretreatment with EAL suppressed HUVEC-monocyte adhesion by $TNF-{\alpha}$ over $1{\mu}g/ml$ concentration. We investigated the involvement of nuclear transcription factor kappa-B ($NF-{\kappa}B$) in $TNF-{\alpha}$-induced vascular inflammation. $NF-{\kappa}B$ p65 nuclear expression was induced by $TNF-{\alpha}$, however, pretreatment with EAL was attenuated that nuclear translocation. In cytoplasm, EAL was also attenuated $TNF-{\alpha}$-induced decrease of inhibitor of ${\kappa}B-{\alpha}$ ($I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$) expression. Moreover, EAL significantly decreased $TNF-{\alpha}$-induced production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Conclusions: Taken together, our findings suggest that seeds of Arctium lappa L could be a therapeutic herb for prevention of cardiovascular diseases throughout the inhibition of vascular endothelial inflammation.

본 연구에서는 햄프씨드 오일이 고콜레스테롤혈증을 개선시키는 지 확인하기 위하여 Sprague-Dawley rat에 1.25% 콜레스테롤식이를 8주 동안 급여하였으며, 햄프씨드 오일을 두 농도 (저농도, 고농도)로 경구 투여한 후 혈액, 조직 분석을 통하여 지질개선 및 염증 완화 효과를 발휘하는지 분석하였다. 햄프씨드 오일 식이는AMPK/SREBP-2 경로를 경유하여 혈중 콜레스테롤의 합성을 효과적으로 억제하였으며, PI3IK/Akt/NF-κB의 경로를 유의하게 억제하여 항염증 효과를 발휘함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 신호전달의 경로는 간 조직에서 지질축적의 감소와도 관련이 있는 것으로 보인다. 이상의 결과를 종합해보면 햄프씨드 오일은 고콜레스테롤혈증의 예방 및 치료를 위한 잠재적 후보소재로서 가능성이 있음을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the age-related changes of cardiovascular disease risk factors and inflammatory markers in non-obese Korean women. Subjects were 112 women over 20 years old with body mass index (BMI) less than $30 kg/m^2$ and were divided into 3 groups (< 40 years, $40{\sim}59$ years, ${\ge}60$ years). Mean weight and BMI in the oldest group were significantly higher than those in the other 2 younger groups (p < 0.05). Mean total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol and apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio (BAR) in the oldest group were significantly higher than those in the youngest group (p < 0.05), and mean HDL-cholesterol of the oldest group was significantly lower than that of the youngest group (p < 0.05). The older-aged group showed significantly higher mean values of atherogenic index (AI) and LDL/HDL ratio (p < 0.05) than the respective younger-aged group, and AI was significantly correlated with age, nitric oxide and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (p < 0.01). In addition, mean vascular cell adhesion molecule-l (VCAM-1) tended to be higher in the older-aged group than the younger group. Tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$, a proinflammatory maker, was significantly positively correlated with serum homocysteine, a cardiovascular disease risk factor (p < 0.01). In addition, a significantly positive correlation was observed between C-reactive protein and BAR (p < 0.01). Overall results suggested that the aging might affect the increase of cardiovascular disease risk factors including the serum lipid profiles, weight and BMI, and age-related increases of weight and BMI might play a role in changes in certain biomarkers of inflammation.
