표고버섯의 mitochondria에 금속 chelating agent인 10 mM EDTA 및 10 mM o-Phe을 포함하는 10 mM Tris-HCl 완충용액(pH 7.5)으로 48시간 동안 각각 투석처리 하였을 때 mitochondria 내의 철 이온 함량이 투석처리를 하지 않은 대조구에 비하여 각각 74% 및 68% 감소되며, mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$의 활성도는 대조구에 비하여 각각 56% 및 49%의 활성을 상실하였다. EDTA 투석에 의하여 활성을 상실한 metal-free mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$는 $0.5\;mM\;Fe^{3+}$과 $0.05\;mM\;Mg^{2+}$에 의하여 각각 81% 및 70%의 활성이 회복되었으며, $Fe^{2+}$에 의해서는 활성이 회복되지 않았다. 또한 이 효소는 $0.5\;mM\;Fe^{3+}$와 $0.05\;mM\;Mg^{2+}$이 공존할 때 95%의 재활성화를 나타내었으며, $Fe^{2+}$와 $Mg^{2+}$의 공존 효과는 없었다. o-Phe으로 투석한 효소도 각 이온에 대하여 EDTA로 투석한 효소와 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 그러므로, 표고버섯 내의 mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$는 그 활성을 나타내는 데 있어서 $Fe^{3+}$ 및 $Mg^{2+}$을 필요로 함을 알았다. 기질 ATP에 대한 효소의 Km값은 1.67 mM이나, 효소를 가장 크게 활성화시키는 $0.5\;mM\;Fe^{3+}$와 $0.05\;mM\;Mg^{2+}$이 존재할 때의 Km값은 0.65 mM로서 기질 친화성이 증가되었다.

Propolis, a natural resinous compound collected from honey bees, contains many biochemical constituents(wax, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, etc.) and has been used in traditional medicines as early as 300 B.C. It was been demonstrated that ethanol, acetylsalicylic acid, ischemia reperfusion, non-steroidal antiin-flammatory drugs and stress induce gastric lesions by promoting the generation of reactive oxygen metabolites. Therefore, some drugs that are capable of scavenging or inhibiting the generation of reactive oxygen radicals might be expected to prevent the gastric mucosal injury. The aim of this study was 1) to examine the antiulcer effect of propolis, 2) to investigate the mechanism of action by determining gastric acid secretion, lipid per-oxidation, mucus content and proton pump ($H^+$/$K^+$-ATPase) activity on gastric mucus in varios experimental models, and finally, 3) to isolate and identify the pure compounds that exert antiulcer activity. Step 2-1 and 2-3 sub-sub fraction shoed a significant reduction of severity of gastirc damage at the dose of 25 mg/kg in various experimental models. We isolated 4 sub-sub-sub fractions by flash column chromatography of Step 2-1 sub-sub fraction and one sub-sub-sub fraction by recrystalization of Step 2-3 sub-sub fraction. The protective effects of propolis sub-sub-sub fraction manifested sifnificant effects in HCl-ethanol induced gastric erosion model and aspirin induced gastric ulcer model. These results showed that the gastric mucosal protective effect of propolis might result from the increase of mucus secretion, free radical scavenging effect as well as the reduction of acid secretion in accordance with the reduction of $H^+$/$K^+$-ATPase activitv. Three compounds were isolated and identified from sub-sub fraction of propolis which showed antiulcer effects. Subsequently, these compounds were identified as a flavonoid, namely, 2-acetoxy-5,7,-dihydroxy-flavanone, galangin and chrysin.

벌집으로부터 채취한 수지상의 물질인 propolis는 다양한 생화학적 성분을 함유하며 기원전 300년부터 사용되어 온 전통약물이다. 최근 항균, 항 바이러스, 항진균, 국소마취, 면역 활성, 항염, 항산화 작용등의 생물학적 활성이 보고된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 위염과 위궤양에 미치는 propolis추출물과 분획물의 약조학적 효과를 평가하고자 에탄올 추출물을 hexane, toluene, ethyl acetate로 분획하여 항위염 및 항위궤양 활성을 조사하였다. Propolis 에탄을 추출물은 염산·에탄을 위손상, Shay의 위액 분비 실험에서 용량 의존적인 보호효과를 나타내었고 hexnae과 toluene 분획물은 염산·에탄을 위손상, aspirin에 의한 위손상, Shay의 위액 분비 실험에서 위손상과 위액분비를 감소시켰다. propolis 추출물과 분획물의 위염 및 위궤양에 대한 보호효과는 H+/K+ATPase activity의 억제에 의한 위액분비의 감소에 의한 것으로 생각된다.

The toxicity of inorganic sulfuric acid as a stressor was characterized in Saccharomyces cerevisiae KNU5377. In this work, we examined physiological responses to low extracellular pH $(pH_{ex})$ caused by inorganic $H_2SO_4$, which could not affect cell growth after pH was adjusted to an optimum with Trizma base. The major toxicity of sulfuric and was found to be reduction of environmental pH, resulting in stimulation of plasma membrane ${H^+}-ATPase$, which in turn contributed to intracellular alkalinization. Using a pH-dependent fluorescence probe, 5-(and-6)-carboxy SNARF-1, acetoxymethyl ester, acetate (carboxy SNARF-1 AM acetate), to determine $pH_{in}$, we found that color was dependent on the changes of intracellular pH which coincided with calculated $pH_{in}$ of alkalinization up to approximately pH 7.3. This alkalinization did not seem to affect survival of these cells exposed to 30 mM sulfuric acid, which lowered the $pH_{ex}$ of the glucose containing growth media up to approximately pH 3.0; however, the cells could grow only up to 70% of the maximum growth in the same media, when 30 mM sulfuric acid was added.

For heuristic purposes, the relative ratio of urease contents inside and outside cells was surveyed using nine ureB+ strains of Helicobacter pylori. the ratio of the enzyme specific activity appeared to vary greatly between the various H. pylori strains, ranging from 0.5 to 2.5. Besides the above compartment, urease was also richly found in the membrane fraction, especially in either peripheral or integral form. The urease distribution across the H. pylori membrane was significantly influenced by the ambient pH; the specific activity of external urease was highest at pH 5.5 with a narrow plateau, whereas the internal specific activity was highest within a pH range of 4.5 to 6.5 with a broad plateau. These finding strongly suggest that H. pylori urease is secretory and responded to the external pH. However, at pH 4.0 or below, no urease activity was detected in either the internal or external compartment, although an increase in the color development with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonate (TNBS) was observed. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) demonstrated that these phenomena may be related to a specific proteolysis in certain proteins, including urease or ${\gamma}$-glutamyl transpeptidase. Interestingly, the effect of ammonium ions n alleviating the enzyme inactivation inside the H. pylori cells was remarkably similar to that of D-glucose. In addition, it would appear that the cation acted as a surrogate of not only $Na^+$ but also $K^+$ thereby increasing the H. pylori P-type ATPase activity. This is of great interest, as it implies that the urease action in H. pylori is indispensible at any locus.

Intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization is closely linked with the initiation of salivary secretion in parotid acinar cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to be related to a variety of oxidative stress-induced cellular disorders and believed to be involved in salivary impairments. In this study, we investigated the underlying mechanism of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) on cytosolic $Ca^{2+}$ accumulation in mouse parotid acinar cells. Intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ levels were slowly elevated when $1mM\;H_2O_2$ was perfused in the presence of normal extracellular $Ca^{2+}$. In a $Ca^{2+}-free$ medium, $1mM\;H_2O_2$ still enhanced the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ level. $Ca^{2+}$ entry tested using manganese quenching technique was not affected by perfusion of $1mM\;H_2O_2$. On the other hand, $10mM\;H_2O_2$ induced more rapid $Ca^{2+}$ accumulation and facilitated $Ca^{2+}$ entry from extracellular fluid. $Ca^{2+}$ refill into intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ store and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ($1{\mu}M$)-induced $Ca^{2+}$ release from $Ca^{2+}$ store was not affected by $1mM\;H_2O_2$ in permeabilized cells. $Ca^{2+}$ efflux through plasma membrane $Ca^{2+}-ATPase$ (PMCA) was markedly blocked by $1mM\;H_2O_2$ in thapsigargin-treated intact acinar cells. Antioxidants, either catalase or dithiothreitol, completely protected $H_2O_2-induced$ $Ca^{2+}$ accumulation through PMCA inactivation. From the above results, we suggest that excessive production of $H_2O_2$ under pathological conditions may lead to cytosolic $Ca^{2+}$ accumulation and that the primary mechanism of $H_2O_2-induced$ $Ca^{2+}$ accumulation is likely to inhibit $Ca^{2+}$ efflux through PMCA rather than mobilize $Ca^{2+}$ ions from extracellular medium or intracellular stores in mouse parotid acinar cells.

본 연구에서는 ursolic acid의 위의 보호효과를 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 위장 질병에 대한 ursolic acid의 효과를 확인하기 위해서 급성, 만성위염은 각각의 HCl ethanol과 indomethacin에 의해 유도된 위염 동물 모델을 사용하여 관찰하였다. 대표적인 공격인자인 위산에 관해서는 PPI activity를 통해서 확인하였고, 위의 손상에 대한 보호인자에 관해서는, $PGE_2$를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 항균활성 실험은 만성위염, 위궤양, 위암에 원인인자로 잘 알려진 H. pylori로 실험하였다. AGS cell를 이용하여 DAPI 염색, Flow cytometry assay를 통하여 ursolic acid가 위암세포의 apoptosis에 관여하는지를 확인하였다. 그 결과 ursolic acid는 HCl ethanol과 indomethacin에 의해 유도된 급성, 만성에 대한 위손상을 억제하였다. Ursolic acid는 위산분비의 마지막 단계인 위염분비효소인 proton pump를 억제시킴으로써 산의 분비를 억제하였다. 그리고 ursolic acid는 위 점막의 보호인자인 $PGE_2$의 농도가 증가함으로써 위 점막 보호 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 ursolic acid는 공격인자인 H. pylori colonization을 억제하였다. DAPI를 이용한 핵 염색에서, 대조군과는 달리, 핵 형상의 변형과 함께 수축 된 세포 또는 염색질의 응축현상이 관찰되었다. Flow cytometry assay에서 ursolic acid에 의해 apoptosis가 증가하는 것을 확인 하였다. 이를 통하여 ursolic acid는 위 손상에 대한 방어 효과가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Adipic acid에 대해 저항성을 갖도록 변이된 Leuconostoc paramesenteroides (ANaP100) 균주의 내산성 특성을 조사하기 위하여 수소이온 투과도, $H^+-ATPase$ 활성, $Mg^{++}$ 해리도, 원형질막의 지방산 조성을 지표로 삼아 야생균주(LPw)와 비교하였다. 수소이온 투과도의 경우 pH 5에서 $t_{1/2}$ 값이 LPw는 4.3분, ANaP100은 4.8분으로서 변이균주가 다소 내산성이 높았으며 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성은 maximal activity가 Leu. paramesenteroides는 모두 pH 6.0에서 가장 높았고 LPw는 0.59 unit/mg protein, 변이균주는 0.63 unit/mg protein으로서 ANaP100이 LPw보다 활성이 높았다. 세포막의 산 손상(acid damage)에 의한 $Mg^{++}$ 해리도에서도 pH 4.0에서 2시간 경과 후 LPw는 52.2%, ANaP100은 27.3%로서 LPw에 비해 약 1/2가량 $Mg^{++}$이 적게 유출되어 산에 의한 세포막의 손상이 적었다. 원형질막의 지방산 조성은 ANaP100가 $C_{18:1}$은 감소하고, $C_{19:0,\;cyclo}$는 증가하여 내산성이 증대되었으며 또한 adipic acid 첨가시에도 LPw에 비해 우수한 증식을 보였다. 따라서 ANaP100이 LPw에 비해 내산성이 증가되었으며 adipic acid 저항성도 함유하는 것이 확인되었다.

The effects of a newly synthesized $H^+/K^+$ ATPase inhibitor,1-(2-methyl-4-methoxypheny)-4-[(3-hy-droxypropyl)amino] -6-methyl-2,3-dihydropyrrolo (3,2-c) quinoline (DBM-819) , on the central nervous system, isolated smooth muscle, cardiovascular and digestive systems and renal function were investigated in various experimental animals. Oral administration of DBM-819 had no effect on the central nervous system except body temperature of mice slightly decreased at doses of 15 and 50 mg／kg. DBM-819 produced a moderate analgesic effect in acetic acid-induced writhing test in mice at 50 mg／kg (p.o.). In conscious rats, DBM-819 (15 and 50 mg／kg, p.o.) showed a slight increase in blood pressure and a small decrease in heart rate. DBM-819 had an significant effect on agonist-induced contraction of guinea pig ileum at $1.5{\times}10^{-5}g/ml.$ No significant effect of DBM-819 (5 and 15 mg／kg, i.p) on urinary volume or urinary excretion of $Na^+,\;K^+$ and Cl- was observed in rats. DBM-819 had no significant effect on intestinal transport of a semisolid meal in mice at 15 and 50 mg／kg (p.o.). These findings suggest that DBM-819 exerts no significant pharmacological effects on the central nervous system and renal function at 15 mg／kg (p.o.), but produces some effects on the smooth muscle and circulatory system.
