Abstract

The anti-stress effects of Punica granatum L. (family Lythraceae, PG) on $H_2O_2$/corticosterone (CORT)-induced stress in cells and sleep-deprived rats were investigated. The PG extract showed neuroprotective effects in SH-SY5Y cells against $H_2O_2$/CORT-induced stress. Sleep deprivation led to behavioral, hormonal, and biochemical alterations in the animal model. The effects of P. granatum on physiological, behavioral, and biochemical parameters aggravated by sleep deprivation were investigated. Sleep deprivation impaired physiological (survival, body weight, and drowsiness scores) and behavioral (rotarod, passive avoidance, hot hyperalgesia, and Y maze) parameters as well as biochemical factors (cortisol, serotonin, dopamine, testosterone, and growth factor I contents in serum). These parameters were significantly recovered by PG extract in a concentration-dependent manner. The PG extract also enhanced catalase, superoxide dismutase, and non-enzymatic antioxidative activities such as glutathione compared to sleep-deprived rats. On the basis of these results, our findings suggest that Punica granatum prevents impairment of body functions induced by sleep deprivation and related oxidative damage.

수면은 하루의 약 3분의 1을 차지하며, 중추신경계의 항상성 회복, 에너지 저장, 체온조절, 불필요한 기억의 제거, 면역 기능, 에너지 보존 등의 기능을 수행하는 생리현상이다. 이러한 조건이 충족되지 않으면 삶의 질 저하뿐만 아니라 다양한 증상 및 질병이 야기된다. 현대인은 학업, 직장 등 다양한 요소로 인한 과도한 정신적 스트레스, 불안 또는 육체적 피로 등의 이유로 일시적 또는 장기적 수면장애가 증가하는 추세이다. 이렇게 많은 현대인들이 겪는 수면장애를 예방 및 개선하기 방안을 모색하기 위하여 전남 비교우위 특산자원인 석류의 수면, 특히 수면박탈 및 스트레스에 미치는 영향을 in vivo 및 in vitro 상에서 확인하였다. 석류(Punica granatum L.)는 부처꽃과에 속하는 낙엽활엽교목으로 인도, 페르시아가 원산지이다. 석류는 항산화, 항암, 항당뇨, 항통증, 항염증, 에스트로젠 효과 등이 알려져 있다. 석류 추출물을 전처리한 SH-SY5Y 세포에 $H_2O_2$/corticosterone에 의한 신경세포독성을 유발하여 보호 효과를 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide와 lactate dehydrogenase로 측정한 결과, 유의적인 보호 효과를 확인하였다. 또한, 수면박탈 동물모델에서 생존율, 몸무게, 꾸벅임에서 수면박탈군과 비교하여 모두 유의적인 보호 효과가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 석류 추출물의 수면박탈 스트레스에 대한 행동학적 보호 효과는 스트레스의 강도에 따라 행동학적 변화를 관찰한 결과, 운동능력 및 인지능력은 수면박탈이 지속되어도 보호 효과를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 통각 효과는 hot hyperalgesia test를 통해 스트레스가 지속될수록 무뎌지는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, Y maze는 변경행동력은 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 석류 추출물 투여군들의 움직임이 수면박탈군에 비하여 활발함을 확인하였다. 생화학적 변화를 확인한 결과 코티졸, 세로토닌 및 도파민, 테스토스테론 및 growth factor I의 함량은 수면박탈 스트레스에 의하여 증가하다가 석류 추출물 및 카페인에 의하여 유의적으로 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 항산화 관련 인자인 catalase, glutathione, superoxide dismutase를 측정한 결과, 수면박탈군은 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 석류 추출물에 의하여 회복되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 석류의 항스트레스 효과를 확인하였으며, 특히 동물실험에서는 석류 추출물에 의하여 수면박탈 스트레스가 지속됨에 따라 감소하는 행동학적 결과들을 방지하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 석류의 항스트레스 효과는 항산화적 측면과 연관이 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
