  • Objectives : Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (LJF) has been shown anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-rheumatoid properties. However, it is still largely unknown whether LJF inhibits skin injury against oxidative stress in human keratinocyte, HaCaT cells. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of LJF against hydrogen peroxide($H_2O_2$)-induced oxidative stress in human keratinocytes, HaCaT cells. Methods : To evaluate out the protective effects of LJF on oxidative injury in HaCaT cells, an oxidative stress model of HaCaT cells was established under a suitable concentration (500 ${\mu}M$) hydrogen peroxide. HaCaT keratinocyte cells were pre-treated with LJF (0.1, 0.25 or 0.5 mg/ml), and then stimulated with $H_2O_2$. Then, the cells were harvested to measure the cell viability, DNA damage, and release of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Results : LJF (0.1, 0.25 or 0.5 mg/ml) itself did not show any significant toxicity in HaCaT cells. The treatment of $H_2O_2$ caused the oxidative stress, leading to the cell death, and DNA injury. However, pretreatment with LJF reduced cell death, and DNA injury. The stimulation of $H_2O_2$ on HaCaT cells resulted in excessive release of ROS, which is the main factor of oxidative stress. The excessive release of ROS was inhibited by LJF treatment significantly. Conclusions : These results could suggest that LJF exhibited the protective effects of HaCaT cells against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative stress by inhibiting ROS release. It could be explained that LJF inhibit skin damages against oxidative stress. Thus, LJF would be useful for the development of drug or cosmetics treating skin troubles.

  • Inhibitory effect of caffeine on NIH3T3 cell proliferation was studied by using [$^3H$]thymidine incorporation and a modified one-step silver staining technique. The latter technique shows argyrophilic nucleolar organizer region-associated proteins (Ag-NORs), which are seen in nuclei as black dots. The result was compared with the counts of [$^3H$] thymidine incorporation. The results were summarized as follows; 1. The Ag-NORs numbers of NIH3T3 cells were $6.81{\pm}1.38$ at 24 hrs, $7.13{\pm}1.26$ at 48 hrs, $8.50{\pm}2.04$ at 72 hrs after incubation. 2. The numbers of Ag-NORs were significantly decrease in caffeine treated groups (p<0.01). 3. The counts of [$^3H$] thymidine incorporation were similar to the result of using Ag-NORs staining technique. It is concluded that Ag-NOR is a rapid, simple and compatible method to quantitate cell proliferation as compared with [$^3H$]thymidine incorporation.

  • 동의학(東醫學)에서는 질병의 발생에 대하여 정기(正氣)의 강약(强弱)에 그 관건(關鍵)이 있다하였다. 그리하여 모든 질병의 치료에 있어서도 정기(正氣)의 회복에 중점을 두는 부정법(扶正法)이나 거사법(祛邪法)을 사용하면서도 정기(正氣)에 손상(損傷)을 입히지 않도록 많은 관심을 기우리고 있다. 암(癌)의 치료 또한 정기(正氣)가 얼마만큼 보충되는가에 따라 항병능력(抗病能力)이 항진(亢進)된다할 수 있을 것이다. 현재 국내외적(國內外的)으로 악성종양(惡性腫瘍)을 치료하기 위하여 다방면으로 연구를 하고 있으며, 또한 실제로 사용하고 있는 치료방법들로는 수술요법(手術療法) 방사선요법(放射線療法) 면역료법(免疫療法) 화학요법(化學療法)등이 있지만 아직까지는 미흡한 상태라 할 수 있을 것이다. 현재 일반적으로 항암제(抗癌劑)를 이용한 화학요법(化學療法) 등이 사용되고 있고, 면역료법(免疫療法)을 위한 많은 방법들이 연구되고 있어 본 저자(著者)들은 천문동(天門冬)이 면역세포(免疫細胞)의 증식(增殖)을 촉진시켜주면서 항암작용(抗癌作用)이 있을 것으로 사료(思料)되는 바 피부암세포(皮膚癌細胞)인 A431 cell line과 골수암세포(骨髓癌細胞)인 KHOS-NP cell line에 천문동(天門冬)을 투여(投與)하여 암세포(癌細胞)의 증식(增殖)을 살펴보고, 면역세포(免疫細胞)인 T cell과 B cell의 증식(增殖)을 살펴보았다. 또한 복강내(腹腔內) macrophage에서 분비되는 NO의 양(量)을 In vitro와 In vivo실험(實驗)을 통하여 살펴보았고, T cell의 apoptosis 및 subpopulation의 양(量)을 관찰하였다. 이 결과(結果) 천문동(天門冬)은 A431 cell 및 KHOS-NP cell에 항암작용(抗癌作用)을 보였고, T-cell의 증식(增殖)을 촉진시켰으며, 마우스 복강내(腹腔內) macrophage에서 분비(分泌)되는 NO의 양(量)을 감소시켜고, T cell의 apoptosis에 있어서는 대조군(對照群)에 비하여 유의성(有意性)있게 증가(增加)시켰으며, subpopulation에서는 $T_H$ cell을 증가(增加)시켰다. 그리하여 천문동(天門冬)은 항암작용(抗癌作用) 뿐만아니라 면역세포(免疫細胞)의 증식(增殖)에도 관여하는 약물(藥物)로 인정(認定)할 수 있을 것으로 사료(思料)된다.

  • Taurine is the most abundant amino acid in many tissues and is found to be enhancing the bone tissue formation or inhibits the bone loss. Although it is reported that taurine reduces the alveolar bone loss through inhibiting the bone resorption, its functions of taurine and expression of taurine transporter (TauT) in bone have not been identified yet. The purpose of this study is to clarify the uptake mechanism of taurine in osteoblast using mouse osteoblast cell lines. In this study, mouse stromal ST2 cells and mouse osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells as osteoblast cell lines were used. The activity of taurine uptake was assessed by measuring the uptake of [$^3H$]taurine in the presence or absence of inhibitors. TauT mRNA was detected in ST2 and MC3T3-E1 cells. [$^3H$]Taurine uptake by these cells was dependent on the presence of extracellular calcium ion. The [$^3H$]taurine uptake in ST2 cells treated with 4 mM calcium was increased by 1.7-fold of the control which was a significant change. In contrast, in $Ca^{++}$-free condition and L-type calcium channel blockers (CCBs), taurine transport to osteocyte was significantly inhibited. In oxidative stress conditions, [$^3H$]taurine uptake was decreased by TNF-$\alpha$ and $H_2O_2$. Under the hyperosmotic conditions, taurine uptake was increased, but inhibited by CCBs in hyperosmotic condition. These results suggest that, in mouse osteoblast cell lines, taurine uptake by TauT was increased by the presence of extracellular calcium, whereas decreased by CCBs and oxidative stresses, such as TNF-$\alpha$ and $H_2O_2$.

  • Currently, there is no treatment to reverse or cure heart failure caused by ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction despite the remarkable advances in modern medicine. In addition, there is a lack of evidence regarding the existence of stem cells involved in the proliferation and regeneration of cardiomyocytes in adult hearts. As an alternative solution to overcome this problem, protocols for differentiating human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) into cardiomyocyte have been established, which further led to the development of cell therapy in major leading countries in this field. Recently, clinical studies have confirmed the safety of hPSC-derived cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Although several institutions have shown progress in their research on cell therapy using hPSC-derived cardiomyocytes, the functions of cardiomyocytes used for transplantation remain to be those of immature cardiomyocytes, which poses a risk of graft-induced arrhythmias in the early stage of transplantation. Over the last decade, research aimed at achieving maturation of immature cardiomyocytes, showing same characteristics as those of mature cardiomyocytes, has been actively conducted using various approaches at leading research institutes worldwide. However, challenges remain in technological development for effective generation of mature cardiomyocytes with the same properties as those present in the adult hearts. Therefore, in this review, we provide an overview of the technological development status for maturation methods of hPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and present a direction for future development of maturation techniques.

  • 시험관 내에서 T-2 toxin이 병아리 비장세포의 blastogenesis에 미치는 영향을 살펴본 결과, B-cell mitogen인 lipopolysaccharide 및 T-cell mitogen인 concanavalin A 자극에 대해 T-2 toxin의 농도가 증가함에 따라 억제정도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 노출시기를 달리하여 T-2 toxin을 투여한 병아리의 비장세포에서 mitogen 자극에 내한 반응을 안아 본 결과, 부화하기 전과 후에 계속 T-2 toxin에 노출시킨 실험군은 가장 영향을 많이 받은 것으로 나타났고 부화전 혹은 부화후 어느 한 시기에만 T-2 toxin에 노출된 실험군은 비교적 영향을 적게 받는 것으로 나타났다.
