Ginseng (the root of Panax ginseng C. A. MEYER, Araliaceae) has been used for traditional medicine in China, Korea, Japan and other Asian countries for the treatment of various diseases including psychiatric and neurologic diseases as well as diabetes mellitus. So far, ginseng saponins (ginsenosides) have been regarded as the principal components responsible for the pharmacological activities of ginseng. Ginsenosides are glycosides containing an aglycone (protopanaxadiol or protopanaxatriol) with a dammarane skeleton and have been shown to possess various biological activities including the enhancement of cholesterol biosynthesis, stimulation of serum protein synthesis, immuno- modulatory effects and anti-inflammatory activity. Several studies using ginsenosides have also reported anti-tumor effects, particularly the inhibition of tumor-induced angiogenesis, tumor invasion and metastasis, and the control of phenotypic expression and differentiation of tumor cells.

Objectives : The leaves of Artemisia argyi L. have been used for the treatment of bleeding-related diseases in traditional korean medicine. But the immunological activities with macrophage have not been sufficiently reported. This study is to investigate the immunological bioactivities of the herbal acupuncture solution obtained from leaves of Artemisia argyi L. (AAAS). Methods & Results : Against Nicotine and Acetaldehyde, AAAS increased significantly the production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) within mouse macrophage Raw 264.7 cells above the concentration of 10 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$. AAAS increased significantly the production of nitric oxide (NO) in Raw 264. 7 cells above the concentration of 100 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ against EtOH. And AAAS increased significantly the production of nitric oxide (NO) in Raw 264. 7 cells above the concentration of 200 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ against Nicotine, Acetaminophen, and Acetaldehyde. Conclusions : These results suggest that AAAS could be thought to have the immunological activities related with the production of hydrogen peroxide and NO in macrophage.

In order to develop new physiologically active polysaccharides from persimmon leaves, two different crude polysaccharides were prepared using hot water (PLW-0) and pectinase digestion (PLE-0) and their immuno-stimulating activities were estimated. PLW-0 and PLE-0 showed similar sugar compositions with 15 different sugars, including rarely observed sugars in general polysaccharides such as 2-O-methyl-fucose, 2-O-methyl-xylose, apiose, aceric acid, 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid, and 3-deoxy-D-lyxo-2-heptulosaric acid, but the uronic acid content of PLE-0 was lower than that of PLW-0 caused by pectinase treatment. Both PLW-0 and PLE-0 showed potent anti-complementary activity in a dose-dependent manner which was similar to a known immuno-stimulating polysaccharide, PSK, from Coriolus versicolor. The activity of PLE-0 at a low concentration ($100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) was higher than that of PLW-0. In an in vitro cytotoxicity analysis, PLW-0 and PLE-0 (up to $1,000{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) did not affect the growth of peritoneal macrophages and Colon 26-M3.1 carcinoma cells. In contrast, they enhanced lymphocyte proliferation activity. Peritoneal macrophages stimulated with PLW-0 and PLE-0 produced various cytokines, such as IL-6 and IL-12. However, PLE-0 was more effective on the cytokine production. Intravenous administration of PLW-0 and PLE-0 significantly augmented natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity against Yac-1 tumor cells 3 days after the treatment of polysaccharide fractions. But NK cells obtained from the PLE-treated group showed higher tumoricidal activity even at a low dose of $40{\mu}g$/mouse. In experimental lung metastasis of Colon 26-M3.1 carcinoma cells, prophylactic administration of PLW-0 and PLE-0 significantly inhibited lung metastasis in a dose-dependent manner and PLE-0 was more effective on the inhibition of cancer metasasis. The results lead us to conclude that the pectinase-treated process is indispensable to preparing polysaccharides with higher immune-stimulating activity from persimmon leaves.

본 연구는 가시여지 잎 에탄올 추출물(ALE) 및 조다당 추출물(ALP)의 면역 활성에 관하여 비교하기 위하여, 선천 및 적응면역에서 중추적인 역할을 수행하는 큰포식세포에 ALE 및 ALP를 처리하여 세포 증식률, 산화질소 분비능, 사이토카인(종양괴사인자, IL-6, $IL-1{\beta}$) 분비능 및 기전 분석을 통한 신호전달에 관하여 관찰하였다. ALE 및 ALP를 큰포식세포에 처리하여 면역활성에 관하여 비교하였을 때, 큰포식세포 면역활성의 바이오-마커인 산화질소, 사이토카인의 분비능 및 iNOS의 세포내 발현이 ALP 처리구에서 유의적으로 증가되는 것으로 관찰되었으며, 기전분석결과, ALP의 처리는 MPAKs의 인산화 및 $NF-{\kappa}B$의 핵내 이동성을 증가시켜 면역활성을 증가시키는 것으로 관찰되었다. 따라서, ALP의 높은 면역활성은 MPAKs의 인산화 및 $NF-{\kappa}B$의 활성과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 판단된다.

현재 우리나라에서 시판되고 있는 대부분의 양조간장은 일본의 $koji$ 방식으로 제조되고 있는 반면, 재래식 조선간장은 자연적으로 미생물이 접종 및 발효된 메주를 이용하여 제조되고 있다. 본 연구는 일본식으로 만들어진 양조간장과 우리나라 전통방식으로 만들어진 재래식 조선간장으로부터 얻어진 다당의 특성과 면역증진활성을 비교하였다. 조선간장 유래 다당인 KTSP-0는 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-$manno$-2-octulosonic acid(KDO)(1.1%)의 구조를 가지는 rhamnogalacturonan II(RG-II)가 있음을 확인하였다. 양조간장 유래 다당 CSP-0와 KTSP-0의 보체계 활성화능을 측정한 결과 두 시료 모두 농도의존적으로 증가하는 보체계 활성을 가지고 있었으나, $1,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 KTSP-0는 64.7%, CSP-0는 56%의 활성을 나타내었다. C3의 보체계 활성 경로를 확인하기 위해 2차원 면역전기영동을 행하였다. 그 결과, CSP-0는 고전경로로만 보체계를 활성화 시키는 반면, KTSP-0는 고전경로와 부경로 모두를 통해 보체계를 활성화 시키는 것으로 나타났다. CSP-0와 KTSP-0는 비장 유래세포와 macrophage에 대한 세포독성이 없음이 확인되었으며, KTSP-0는 활성화된 복강유래 macrophage에서 IL-6는 $8-1,000{\mu}g/mL$의 비교적 넓은 범위에서, IL-12는 $40{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 cytokine의 분비를 증가시켰다. 본 연구를 통해 양조간장보다 조선간장이 보체계 활성화를 통해 높은 면역 증강 효과를 가지고 있는 것으로 확인되었다.

The crude polysaccharides(C-CPF, C-CPM, C-CPB) derived from fruiting body, mycelia and mycelia free broth of cordyceps militaris were obtained by ethanol precipitation of hot water extracts. After a batch fermentation of C. militaris was carried out in a 5 L jar vessel, endo-polysaccharide and exo-polysaccharide were obtained. They were demonstrated as the hetero polysaccharides which were composed of glucsose, galactose and mannose by performed with HPAEC(high pH anion exchange chromatography) and conformation of random coil by its complex forming ability with congo red reagent. They were purified by ion exchange (DEAE-cellulose) and gel filtration chromatography. They were monitered by phenol-sulfuric acid method and Bradford method. The NO induction activities of crude polysaccharides and purified polysaccharides derived from mycelia free broth were enhanced rather than LPS(lipo polysaccharide) which was used as a general NO inducer. These effects presumably contibute to the antitumor activities. The homogenieties and molecular weights of polysaccharides were determined by using Sepharose CL-6B. The yield, molecular weights and NO induction activities of C-CPFN Fr.III, C-CPMN Fr.III, C-CPBN Fr.II were 0.387, 0.408 and 0.153, 127 K 210 K and 36 K, 40.79%, 88.72%, and 104.17%, respectively.

To investigate the effect of Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract on liver damage in benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P)-treated mice, mice were divided into 4 groups of control, B(a)P, Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract and Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract-B(a)P. The activities of serum aminotransferase, cytochrome P-450 and hepatic content of lipid peroxide after B(a)P-treatment were increased than control, but those levels were significantly decreased by the treatment of Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract. On the other hand, the hepatic glutathione content and glutathione S-transferase activity were increased by the treatment of Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract. Also the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase were decreased by the treatment of Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract. In addition cytochrome P-450 1A1 isozyme protein level, which was remarkably increased by B(a)P treatment from results of immuno blotting, was decreased by the treatment with methanol extract of Sarcodon aspratus. These results suggest that Sarcodon aspratus methanol extract have protective effect on liver damage by decreasing lipid peroxide and activities of free radical generating enzymes.
