Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate anti-arthritis activity using natural eggshell membrane (NEM). Methods: NEM was administered at 52 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg to SD-Rat, where arthritis was induced by monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) at 3 mg. NO production in serum was measured using Griess reagent. Cytokines including IL-$1{\beta}$, and IL-6 were measured by Luminex and $PGE_2$, MMP-2, MMP-9, TIMP-1, $LTB_4$, and hs-CRP were measured by ELISA. The cartilage of patella volume was examined and 3-D high-resolution reconstructions of the cartilage of patella were obtained using a Micro-CT system. Results: Production of NO, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, $PGE_2$, MMP-2, MMP-9, TIMP-1, $LTB_4$, and hs-CRP in serum was decreased, respectively, in comparison with control. The cartilage of patella volume increased significantly. In addition, the NEM group showed a decrease in the cartilage of patella, synovial membrane, and transformation of fibrous tissue. Conclusion: The results for NEM showed significant anti-arthritis activity. These results may be developed as a raw material for new health food to ease the symptoms mentioned above.

본 연구는 난각막 추출물 (NEM)이 골관절염 동물 모델에서 골관절염 유발 인자에 대한 예방과 개선에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 실시하였다. 실험동물인 6주령의 랫드에 NEM을 골관절염 유발 2주전부터 농도별 (52 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg)로 경구 투여하였으며, 2주간의 경구 투여 실시 후 정상군 (normal)을 제외한 대조군과 NEM 경구 투여군에게 3.0 mg/mL의 농도로 MIA를 주사하여 골관절염을 유발하였다. 골관절염 유발 후 4주간 경구 투여를 지속적으로 실시한 후 혈액 및 관절, 조직 등을 이용하여 골관절염 유발 인자들을 확인하였다. NO 생성량은 NEM 200, 400 (mg/kg)에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었으며, $PGE_2$ 생성량은 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 사이토카인 IL-$1{\beta}$와 IL-6 생성량은 IL-$1{\beta}$에서는 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 보였으나, IL-6에서는 400 mg/kg 농도에서만이 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. hs-CRP 생성량은 모든 농도에서 대조군에 비하여 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었으며, MMPs 생성량과 $LTB_4$ 생성량을 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 또한, COMP 및 CTX-II 검사를 통해 골관절염의 진행 억제에 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 마지막으로 관절과 연골을 micro-CT 및 조직 염색을 실시한 결과, NEM 경구 투여군은 연골량 및 관절 조직의 변형, 연골세포의 손상도가 대조군에 비하여 손상이 적었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 볼 때, NEM은 농도 의존적으로 골관절염 유발 인자를 감소시켜 관절 및 연골에 효능이 있음을 제시하고 있다. 이와 같은 결과는 NEM이 골관절염에 대한 예방과 개선 효과를 나타낼 수 있는 건강기능식품의 원료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.
