This paper aims to increase functionality and competitiveness through fermentation of rice bran, which is used as a raw material for alternative foods and cosmetics. Cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory effects were confirmed using rice bran extract fermented with Saccharomycopsis fibuligera A8 isolated from Nuruk. In the case of cytotoxicity, cytotoxicity was shown at 100 ㎍/mL for rice bran extracts, but cytotoxicity was not shown for fermented rice bran extracts. Meanwhile, as a result of confirming anti-inflammatory effects through inflammatory indicators such as nitric oxide, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, rice bran extracts showed anti-inflammatory effects at concentrations of 100 ㎍/mL or higher only nitric oxide and TNF-α. And fermented rice bran extracts exhibited anti-inflammatory effects at concentrations of 25 ㎍/mL, 25 ㎍/mL, 50 ㎍/mL, and 50 ㎍/mL, respectively, exhibiting anti-inflammatory effects in lower concentration. Meanwhile, as a result of testing the cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory effects of heat-killed S. fibuligera, it was found that the heat-killed S. fibuligera showed anti-inflammatory effect in fermented products.

4-Pivaloyloxy, 4-benzenesulfonyloxy and 4-p-toluenesulfonyloxy compounds of piroxicam (2a, 2b and 2c) and isoxicam(4a, 4b and 4c) were synthesized in fairly good yield. Antiinflammatory and ulcerogenic effects of the 6 compounds were determined. Antiinflammatory effect of 2a was comparable to that of piroxicam and ulcerogenic effect of 2a was less than that of piroxicam.

목적 : 이 연구는 MPTP 유발 파킨슨병 동물 모델에서 봉독약침의 신경보호 효과 및 항염증 효과를 확인하기 위해 시행되었다. 방법 : C57BL/6 mice에 신경독소인 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP)를 하루에 2시간 간격으로 MPTP-HCl(20mg/kg per dose)을 4번 복강 내 주입하여 중뇌 흑질의 도파민 신경세포를 파괴한 파킨슨병 동물 모델을 유발하였다. 실험군은 MPTP군, MPTP 현종 BVA군, MPTP 곡지 BVA군, MPTP 신수 BVA군의 4군으로 하였다. 마지막 MPTP 투여 2시간 후에 1차로 봉독약침을 시술하고, 그 후 48시간 간격으로 총 5차 연속 시술하였다. 봉독약침액의 농도는 0.2mg/Kg으로 하였고, 경혈은 양측 현종($GB_{39}$), 곡지($LI_{11}$), 신수($BL_{23}$)를 사용했고, 주입량은 각 경혈당 양측으로 각 $20{\mu\ell}$씩 주입하였다. 항염증작용을 알아보기 위해 TH, MAC-1, iNOS HSP70을, 세포사멸에 대한 신경세포의 보호효과를 알아보기 위해 caspase-3을 면역조직화학법을 사용하여 실시하였다. 결과 : 실험 결과 MPTP 유발 파킨슨병 동물 모델에서 현종 곡지 신수혈에 대한 봉독약침은 TH-Immunoreactivity neuron의 감소와 microglial activation을 억제하였다. 봉독약침군 모두 효과를 보였으나 그 중 현종과 신수혈에서 특히 억제작용이 컸다. MAC-1에서는 현종혈이 억제작용이 컸다. HSP70-IR neuron은 곡지에서 유의한 억제작용을 보였으나, iNOS neuron은 모든 군에서 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 세포사멸억제여부 실험에서 봉독약침은 모두 억제작용을 보였으나 특히 곡지자침군에서 caspase-3 발현을 유의하게 억제하였다. 결론 : 이러한 결과는 봉독약침이 MPTP 투여로 인한 중뇌 흑질의 염증에 의한 도파민 신경세포 손상을, 염증을 억제함으로써 항염 효과를 나타냄을 알 수 있으며, 신경세포를 보호하는 활성이 있음을 보여줌과 동시에 세포사멸을 억제하는 활성이 있다고 사료된다.

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disease associated with dysfunction of skin barrier and cutaneous hyper-reactivity to environmental triggers. In the previous study, cytotoxicity, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic activities were investigated for various herbal extracts such as Aloe vera L. (AV), Viola mandshurica W. Becker (VM), Punica granatum L. (PG), and Dendrobium nobile L. (DN) in order to develop effective therapeutic herbal extracts for atopic dermatitis, In this study, anti-inflammatory activities of these herb extracts in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophage RAW264.7 cells were further examined to find the underlying molecular mechanisms. The RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) analysis showed that PG, DN and AV inhibited effectively the gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-$1{\beta}$ in LPS-stimulated macrophages, while VM did not. The transfection and luciferase analysis exhibited that all herbal extracts hindered the activation of transcription nuclear factor kappa B (NF-${\kappa}B$). The western blot analysis indicated that AV blocked the activation of only JNK MAP (c-Jun N-terminal kinase mitogen-activated protein) kinase not p38 MAP kinase, while VM, PG and DN did not show the activation of both JNK and p38 MAP kinases. These results suggest that AV, VM, PG, and DN have anti-inflammatory activities and thus have the potential to reduce and alleviate the symptoms of atopic dermatitis.

탁리소독음이 옹저에 있어 항염증 효과를 살펴보고자 NO의 농도, 세포 생존도, iNOS의 표현 및 $TNF-{\alpha}$의 농도를 실험한 결과, NO의 농도는 현저하게 감소하였고 세포 생존도는 탁리소독음에 의하여 영향을 받지 않았으며 iNOS의 표현에 있어서 iNOS의 고도가 현저하게 낮아졌고 $TNF-{\alpha}$의 농도는 현저한 변화가 없었다. 이상을 살펴볼 때 탁리소독음이 옹저에 있어 항염증효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 탁리소독음이 충분히 대식세포의 역할을 대신하며 이 이외의 신호경로가 염증기전에 작용한 것으로 생각되며 많은 연구가 요할 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, the various effects of Salicornia herbacea, including antioxidative function, antibiotic, and anti-inflammatory effect, and the effect of sebiparous reduction due to intervention of the DHT hormone were investigated using. The result of this study Based on this analysis, the serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, and WBC were found to be significantly decreased and SOD, Ca, K, and Zn were shown to be significantly increased significantly in the group that received the SH pill group after trial fora 12 week trials. Testosterone and DHT were increased in the SH pill group, but it was not statistically significant. In the case of the skin condition measurements, the number of blackhead pores, skin oiliness, keratin and, MIC were significantly decreased, and the pH was decreased to normal pH in the SH pill group. Therefore, it was confirmed that overall skin condition was improved due to Salicornia herbacea diet. The results of this research result can contribute so demonstrate the potential of actively using that the Salicornia herbacea can be actively developed as a health supplement, and a medication.

Platycodon grandiflorum (Korean name, Doraji) has been widely used in traditional herbal medicine as an expectorant for pulmonary disease and a remedy for respiratory disorders in Asia. Here, we investigated the effects of BtOH extract saponin fraction of P. gradiflourm (PGS) on phagocytosis and anti-tumor activity with related cytokine productions in RAW264.7 macrophage cells. The results showed that PGS increased phagocytosis, anti-tumor activity, TNF-${\alpha}$ and nitric oxide (NO) production without direct tumor cell cytotoxicity. To further investigate whether NO is involved in anti-tumor and phagocytic activities of PGS, cells were co-treated with specific iNOS inhibitors, L-NIL (N6-(1-iminoethyl)-L-lysine, dihydrochloride), to block NO production. PGS decreased anti-tumor activity in L-NIL-treated cells, whereas phagocytic activity was not inhibited under the same conditions, indicating that the anti-tumor activity by PGS appears to be conducted by NO. These findings suggest that P. grandiflorum could be used a potential nutrition therapeutic agent for cancer patients.
