Abstract
After preparing extracts from fresh Styela plicata using methanol, ethanol, acetone, and water, the antioxidant and tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$ inducing ability of the extracts were evaluated. Most of the extracts showed more than 50% inhibitory activity against malonedialdehyde formation, and methanol extract exhibited the highest activity with values of 59.3%. The water and acetone extracts contained glutathione contents of 18.5 and $12.3\;{\mu}M$, respectively, however, these were not detected in the other extracts. $TNF-{\alpha}$ inducing abilities of the extracts were determined with RAW 264.7 cells. The water extract increased $TNF-{\alpha}$ production with correlation to increase of the added amount. However, the other extracts could not induce $TNF-{\alpha}$ production in RAW 264.7 cells. The results indicated that the antioxidant activities of S. plicata extracts were different depending on extracting solvents, and the water extract showed significant $TNF-{\alpha}$ inducing activity.
