Abstract

Lacquer has traditionally been used to varnish. Many reports have revealed that lacquer has anti-microbical, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, urushiol and their derivatives were known as an allergen. Therefore, we expected that lacquer will be used as a good health-food source if its side effect was solved. Here we analyzed their allergy induced constituents by using the GC/MS and evaluated comparative concentration of lacquer, puerariae radix and their mixture extracts. Our results showed that lacquer extract has allergenic compounds and mixture extract with puerariae radix has relatively lower amount. However, lacquer/puerariae mixture extract has strong anti-allergenic effects on the RBL-2H3 cell and puerariae extract was blocked allergenic effect caused by allergenic constituents contained in lacquer.

옻나무는 옻오름 같은 알러지 반응으로 인해 식품으로의 활용이 제한되므로 이러한 알러지 반응을 완화시키기 위하여 갈근 추출물과 혼합하여 알러지 억제효과를 평가하였으며, 알러지를 유발시키는 성분의 변화를 측정하여 화학적 구조변화 및 생물학적 알러지 반응 억제 양상을 관찰하였다. 이에 갈근 추출물에 대한 옻나무 추출물의 알러지 반응 완화효과를 RBL-2H3 세포에서 ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase의 양을 측정하여 평가하였으며, 갈근 추출물에서 매우 우수한 억제효능을 나타내었다. 또한, 갈근 추출물을 혼합한 결과 양성대조군 ketotifen보다 다소 우수한 효능이 나타났다. 옻나무 추출물의 알러지 유발물질 확인하고, 갈근과 혼합 추출 하였을 때의 알러지 유발물질 함량변화를 평가하기 위하여 GC/MS 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 4종의 알러지 유발물질을 확인할 수 있었으며, 갈근 추출물과 혼합시 알러지 유발물질은 그 함량이 적어지거나 소멸되었다. 따라서, 갈근과 혼합하여 추출하였을 때 함량이 낮아지거나 소멸되는 알러지 유발물질 4종에 대하여 탈과립 억제 효능을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 옻의 알러지 유발물질 4종으로부터 알러지를 유도한 RBL-2H3 세포에서 탈과립화 억제효능 양상이 유사하였으며, 이를 통해 갈근 추출물은 항알러지 효과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 효능을 통하여 옻과 갈근을 혼합하여 추출한 복합추출물의 경우 옻의 문제점인 알러지 반응을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
