초록

동맥경화증은 동맥 내피세포의 손상으로 인해 내막층에 지질이 축적되어 발생 되는 염증성 질환으로 동맥 내막에 침윤되는 백혈구와 백혈구에서 분비되는 전염증성 싸이토카인에 의해 죽종형성이 시작된다. 꾸지뽕은 뽕나무과의 작은 나무로 그 추출물은 항염증, 항산화, 항암의 효과를 가지고 있다. 그러나, 동맥경화증에서 효능은 명확하게 연구되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 동맥경화증의 초기 진행에서 꾸지뽕의 항염증 효과를 알아보고자 꾸지뽕 뿌리의 추출물을 수득하였고, 동맥경화증의 동물 모델인 ApoE 결손 생쥐에서 복강대식세포를 분리하였다. 분리된 복강대식세포에 LPS로 염증반응을 유발하고 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물을 처리하였을 때 100㎍/ml 이하의 농도에서 세포 생존율의 변화가 관찰되지 않아 이 농도를 추가 실험을 위한 유효 농도로 설정하였다. 또한, LPS에 의해 증가한 염증 싸이토카인(MCP-1, IL-1β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-6)의 발현이 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물에 의해 감소하였다. 따라서, 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물은 동맥경화의 잠재적 위험성을 가지고 있는 대식세포에서 항염증 효과를 나타내어 동맥경화증의 치료제 개발에 이용 가능할 것이다.

In this paper, we propose to evaluate the potential anti-inflammatory properties of root bark extract of Cudrania (C.) tricuspidata on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in macrophages of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) knockout (ApoE-/-) mice, murine model of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a chronic vascular inflammatory disease. C. tricuspidata is a small tree of the Moraceae family and its extract has anti-inflammatory activities. However, its role in the progress of atherosclerosis is not yet clear. To determine anti-inflammatory effects of C. tricuspidata in atherogenesis, we applied LPS in peritoneal macrophages of ApoE-/- mice and measured cell viability by CCK-8 and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines by qRT-PCR following treatment with root bark extract of C. tricuspidata. Research data was expressed as differences between the cells treated with LPS and root bark extract and the cells treated with LPS alone (control) by a two-tailed non-parametric Mann-Whitney U-test using GraphPad Instat program. No cytotoxic effect was observed when the cells were treated with the extract at concentrations ≤ 100 ㎍/mL. The expression of inflammatory cytokines, including MCP-1, IL-1β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-6 were inhibited by the extract. These results indicated that the extract has an anti-inflammatory effect and therefore a possible role in the treatment of atherosclerosis.
