Isolation of Inhibitor against Mouse Carcinoma Cells from Streptomyces sp.

복수세포의 Succinate Dehydrogenase 조해물질의 검색

An actinomycete, AS-568, which produced an inhibitory substance against succinate dehydrogenase of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma and Sarcoma-180 cells of mouse, was isolated. The inhibitory activity was determined by SDI (Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibition) method. The active substance was specific against carcinoma cells compared to normal cells in mouse; liver, kidney and brain. The inhibitory ratio was about 50％ after one hr treatment at 37$^{\circ}C$ in vitro. Maximal productivity of active substance was recognized by 5 days culture in glucose-asparagine. The active component in cultural liquid was stable in neutral pH range and heat treatment reasonably, add it was recovered from precipitate by ammonium sulfate or non-dialyrable fraction in cellophane membrane as showing the behavior of high molecular substance.

토양원으로 부터 분리된 Actinomycetes 120여주를 대상으로 S.D.I에 의해 마우스의 복수암인 Ehrlich ascith carcinoma 및 Sarcoma 180 세포의 succinate dehydrogonase 활성을 조해하는 물질을 강하게 생성하는 균 1주(As-568)를 선별하였으며 이 활성물질은 정상조직인 간, 신장, 뇌등에는 아주 강한 inhibition index를 나타내었으나 (20％ 이하) 암조직에서는 50％ 정도의 선택적 조해작용을 나타내었다. glucose-asparagine 배지에서 4∼S일간 배양하였을 때 가장 높은 역가의 활성물질을 생성하였으며 본 물질은 중성영역의 pH 및 열에 대해서는 비교적 안정한 고분자의 비투석성 물질로 추정된다.
