This study was carried out to evaluate cytotoxic effects of Houttuynia cordata THUNB extracts on A549 (lung cancer), MDA-MB231 (breast cancer), SNU-C4 (colon cancer) and B16 (mouse melanoma) cell lines. We have determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide (MTT) assay. The 150 $\mu$g/$m\ell$ concentration of methanol extract (63.81 ％) of Houttuynia cordata THUNB was shown significantly antitoxic activity on A549 cell lines. (omitted)

In the present study, we have evaluated cytotoxic effects of Taraxaci herba extract on human skin melanoma cells. The light microscopic study showed morphological changes of the treated cells. Disruptions in cell organelles were determined by calorimetric methods: MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide), NR (Neutral red) and SRB (Sulforhodamine B protein) assay. These results suggest that Taraxaci herba retains a potential antitumor activity.

In order to enhance the repair of defects in articular cartilage via cell therapy with autologous chondrocytes, as well as with periosteum-derived progenitor cells (PDPCs), silkworm hemolymph (SH) and a variety of cartilage-specific extracellular matrices (ECMs) including type II collagen, proline, chondroitin 4-sulfate, and chondroitin 6-sulfate were assessed with regard to their efficacy as media supplements. SH, a known anti-apoptotic agent, was found to enhance cell growth, as was shown by the results of a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. According to the results of reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses, the cartilage-specific ECMs were found to stimulate the expression of hyaline cartilage-specific genes, most notably type II collagen and Sox9, in monolayer cultures of PDPCs.

발효 및 비발효 차가버섯 수용성 추출물이 정상 세포주 NIH3T3 mouse normal fibroblast cell 및 인체 종양 세포주 AGS human gastric cancer cell(위암), HCT-15 human colon cancer cell(대장암), Hep3B human hepatoma cancer cell(간암), MCF-7 human breast cancer cell(유방암), HeLa human cervical cancer cell(자궁경부암)에서 MTT(3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay 방법에 의한 세포 증식 억제와 암세포 증식억제의 기전 연구의 일환으로 apoptosis가 일어날 때 나타나는 DNA fragmentation을 agarose gel electrophoresis 방법으로 검토하였다. 인체 종양 세포주의 생육저해 효과가 발효 차가버섯 추출물이 비발효 차가버섯 추출물보다 강한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 동일한 실험조건하에서 마우스 정상 세포주 NIH3T3은 80% 이상의 생존율을 나타내어 정상 세포주에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 발효 및 비발효 차가버섯 추출물에서 본 실험에 사용한 세포주 중에서 대장암 세포주 HCT-15에 대해 가장 세포 증식 억제효과가 뛰어났으며, 이러한 효과는 첨가 농도 의존적 이였다. 발효 및 비발효 차가버섯 추출물에 의한 암세포 증식억제가 기전 연구로 apoptosis가 일어날 때 나타나는 DNA fragmentation을 세포로부터 genomic DNA를 분리하여 agarose gel electrophoresis 방법으로 조사한 결과, 정상세포인 NIH3T3 세포는 DNA fragmentation이 거의 일어나지 않아 세포 생존율 결과와 유사한 경향을 보였으나, 특히 대장암 세포주인 HCT-15에서는 발효 차가버섯뿐만 아니라 비발효 차가버섯 추출물에서도 DNA fragmentation이 많이 일어나는 것이 관찰되어 암세포 증식억제 효과가 높다는 결과를 뒷받침 해주고 있다.

자색고구마 추출물의 항산화 효과와 산화적 스트레스로 유도된 PC12 신경세포에 대한 보호효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 자색고구마 추출물의 총 페놀함량은 44.25 mg/g, monomeric anthocyanin 함량은 2,394 mg/L로 나타났다. 자색고구마 추출물의 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylben-zthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical 소거활성, ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) 및 환원력은 농도 의존적으로 항산화 활성이 증가하였다. MTT {3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)- 2,5-diphenyl-tetrazoliumbromide} reduction assay를 이용하여 자색고구마 추출물의 신경세포 보호효과를 측정한 결과, 세포 생존율이 두드러지게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 산화적 스트레스는 신경세포막 손상 정도를 증가시키기 때문에 lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay와 neutral red uptake assay를 이용하여 세포막 손상 보호효과를 조사한 결과 자색고구마 추출물 처리구는 대조구에 비하여 산화적 스트레스로 유도된 세포막 손상 보호효과가 농도 의존적으로 나타났다. 따라서 자색고구마 추출물은 천연 항산화 소재 및 알츠하이머성 치매와 같은 신경퇴행성 질환의 예방 소재로서의 활용 가능성이 기대된다.

목적 : 한의학에서 골절이나 신장질환에 사용되어 왔던 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액이 항염증 및 항산화활성에 대한 효능이 있는지를 연구하고자 한다. 방법 : 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액이 세포독성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) assay를 실시하였다. 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액이 항염증효능에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 lipopolysaccharide(LPS)로 유도된 RAW264.7 대식세포에서의 산화질소(NO) 및 프로스타글란딘($PGE_2$) 생성 억제력을 관찰하였다. 또한 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액이 항산화활성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 1,1-diphenyl-2-pciry hydrazyl(DPPH) radical 소거능을 관찰하였다. 결과 : 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액은 $50{\sim}400{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 세포독성이 나타나지 않았다. 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액은 200 및 $400{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 LPS로 유도된 NO 및 $PGE_2$ 생성을 통계학적으로 유의하게 감소시켰다. 골쇄보추출물은 $50{\sim}400{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 DPPH 소거능을 관찰한 결과 농도의존적으로 활성화되는 것을 관찰하였다. 결론 : 골쇄보열수추출물 약침액은 항염증 및 항산화 효과가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to elucidate protective effect of Fructus Schsandrae(FS) water extract against xanthine oxidase/hypoxanthine(XO/HX)-induced cardiotoxicity in myocardial cells this experiment was performed. Cardiotoxicity of XO/HX was examined by MTT(MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2.5,-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay. XO/HX induced the decrease of cell viability. Also XO/HX induced the increase of LDH activity and the decrease of beating rate on cultured myocardial cells in a dose-dependent manner. To investigate cardioprotective effect of FS water extract cultures were preincubated with FS water extract for 3 hours. Cultures were then exposed to XO/HX for 72 hours. FS water extract have an efficacy in decreaasing LDH activity and increasing heart beating rate on cultured myocardial cells damaged by XO/HX. From the results it is suggested that XO/HX may show toxic effect in cultured myocardial cells derived from neonatal mouse and FS water extract is effective in the prevention of XO/HX-induced cardiotoxicity.

This study was undertaken to clerify the cytotoxic effect of syringic acid by colorimetric assay on human cancer cells. For the evaluation of cytotoxicity of syringic acid, the cell viability and cell adhesion activity of syringic acid on cancer cells, human oral epithelioid carcinoma cells were determined using by colorimetric assays such as MTT (3-[4,5­dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay and XTT (2,3-bis-[2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl]­2H-tetrazolium-5-caboxanilide) assay, respectively after human oral epithelioid carcinoma cells were treated with syringic acid for 48 hours. In this study, the cell viability of syringic acid on human oral epithelioid carcinoma cells showed a significant decrease by MTT assay compared with control, and also, the cell adhesion activity by XTT assay was decreased significantly in these cells after cells were treated with various concentrations of syringic acid for 48 hours. $MTT_{50}\;and\;XTT_{50}\;were\;282.3\;{\mu}M\;and\;418.8{\mu}M$ syringic acid, respectively. These results suggest that syringic acid shows midcytotoxic effect on human oral epithelioid carcinoma cells by the decreasement of the cell viability and the cell adehision activity assessed by colorimetric assay in these cultures.

The cytotoixic effect of Pylorae Herba (Pyrola japonica Klenze) against L1210 and K-562 cells was studied in vitro. The methanolic extract of Pylorae Radix was add ed to the culture of L1210 cells and K-562 cells for the cytotoxic activity and the ED50 values of hexane, ethylacetate, buthanol and water fractions from methanolic extract were determined using MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide) assay. The active constituent isolated by bioassay guided fractionation followed by purification gave rise to a yellow needle crystal and was clarified to be chimaphilline by the comparison with the published data. The average life spans with it were not prolonged significantly on tumor growth in hybrid female mouse (BDF1-KIST) inoculated subcutaneously with P388 cells.
