Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO)에 의한 트립토판 대사체의 생성은 T 세포에 강력한 억제효과를 미치지만 여전히 그 작용기전에 대한 연구보고는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구자는 트립토판 대사체 3-HAA가 선택적으로 활성 T 세포의 사멸을 촉진시키는 효과가 있음을 확인하였고, 이는 세포주기 억제와는 관련이 없었다. 3-HAA 처리 시 활성 T 세포에서 TRAIL과 그의 수용체의 발현이 현저히 증가하고, 이들 상호작용을 차단하였을 때 3-HAA-매개 활성 T 세포사멸 효과가 유의하게 낮아졌다. 본 연구를 통해 트립토판 대사체 3-HAA의 선택적 T 세포 억제 효과가 TRAIL-유도 세포사멸과 관련됨을 알 수 있다.

육계를 13주간 사육하면서 5주령부터 시험사료를 급여한 후 세포표면항원의 발현에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위하여, 아마종실과 항산화제를 첨가하지 않은 대조구($T_{1}$ ), 아마종실만을 첨가한 사료($T_{2}$ ), 아마종실과 u-toco-pherol을 첨가한 사료($T_{3}$ ), 아마종실에 u-tocopherol과 셀레늄을 첨가한 사료($T_{4}$ )를 육계에 급여한 바 면역반응에 미치는 영향은 다음과 같았다. 1차 면역에 관여하는 monocyte 군은 시험사료의 급여기간이 증가할수록 $T_{1}$ 에 비하여 $T_{2}$ , $T_{3}$ , $T_{4}$ 구에서 유의적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였는데 그중 $T_{2}$ 구와 $T_{3}$ 구에서 많이 증가되었다. B세포는 시험사료의 급여기간보다는 급여사료에 따라 증가하였는데,$T_{2} , $T_{3}, $T_{4}$ 구는 $T_{1}$ 구에 비하여 2배 이상 증가하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Hwanggigunjungtang(HGT) on white rats with deteriorated immunity caused by methotrexate. Methods: First, methotrexate was fed to the white rats once a day for 4 days. After the immune responses of the rats are deteriorated, dried extracts of HGT mixed in water was fed to the rats once a day for 14 days. And then we measured the percentage of B-cell and T-cell in peripheral blood, the percentage of CD3+CD4+ T-cell and CD3+CD8+ T-cell of blood sampled from spleen and peripheral region. Results: The percentage of B-cell of peripheral blood was not different statistically. The percentage of T-cell of peripheral blood was increased significantly in HGT group as compared with control group. The percentage of CD3+CD4+ T-cell of peripheral blood was increased significantly in HGT group as compared with control group. The percentage of CD3+CD8+ T-cell of peripheral blood was decreased in HGT group as compared with control group. The percentage of CD3+CD4+ T-cell of spleen was increased significantly in HGT group as compared with control group. The percentage of CD3+CD8+ T-cell of spleen was not different statistically. Conclusion: According to the above results, HGT has an effect of increasing immune responses on white rats with deteriorated immunity caused by methotrexate.

In order to find out the appropriate in vitro method for high correlation with in vivo, we com-pared the sensitivities of phototoxicity (PT) in vitro method between in human keratinocytes, HaCaT cells and in 3T3 fibroblast cells derived from Balb/c mice. Both cells were exposed to six known phototoxic chemicals : promethazine, neutral red, chlortetracycline, amiodarone, bithionol, 8-methoxypsoralen, or non-phototoxic chemical, ALS (ammonium laureth sulfate) and then irradiated with 5 J/$cm^2$ of UVA. Cell viability ($IC_{50}$ ) was measured by neutral red uptake (NRU) assay. The ratio of $IC_{50}$ value of chemicals in the presence and absence of UVA was determined by the cut-off value. The phototoxic potential of test chemicals in NRU assay was determined by measuring the photoirriation factor (PIF) with a cut-off value of 5. In both 3T3 and HaCaT cells, all known phototoxic chemicals were positive (over 5 of PIF value), except that bithionol was found to be non-phototoxic to HaCaT cells, and ALS, non-phototoxic chemical was negative. These results suggest that Balb/c 3T3 cell was more sensitive than HaCaT cell to predict phototoxicity potential.

The purpose of this research was to investigate effects of glycyrrhizin on the differentiation of preadipocytes, 3T3-Ll cells and to characterize the action of glycyrrhizin that affect the responses of 3T3-Ll cells during differentiation. The differentiation of 3T3-Ll cells was stimulated by glycyrrhizin, and triglyceride contents was increased in the differentiated 3T3-LI cell extracts. Total protein contents was increased by glycyrrhizin or inductive agents in the differentiated 3T3-Ll cell extracts. Calmodulin contents was increased by inductive agents, but the contents was not affected by glycyrrhizin in the differentiated 3T3-Ll cell extracts. The results suggest that glycyrrhizin has a stimulating activity of adipose conversion, but the activity is not related to calmodulin contents during the process of differentiation of 3T3-LI cells.

암조직에 대한 면역반응은 종양의 성장을 억제하거나 유도한다. Foxp3 양성 T 림프구는 종양에 대한 면역억제 반응을 유도하여 종양의 성장을 유도하는 반면 CD8 양성 T 림프구는 종양의 성장을 억제한다. 본 연구에서는 피부에서 발생한 편평세포암종, 편평세포 암종의 전암병변인 광선각화증과 보웬병 그리고 기저세포암종 조직에 면역조직화학염색을 시행하여 CD8 양성 T 림프구 및 Foxp3 양성 T 림프구의 분포 그리고 두 종류의 림프구의 비(CD8/Foxp3)를 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. CD8 양성 T 림프구와 Foxp3 양성 T 림프구는 보웬병과 평평세포암종의 침습부위에서 광선각화증과 기저세포암종의 침습부위에 비하여 더 많이 침윤하였으며 CD8/Foxp3는 보웬병에서 광선각화증과 기저세포암종의 침습부위에 비하여 낮았다. CD8 양성 T 림프구와 Foxp3 양성 T 림프구의 침윤 정도 및 CD8/Foxp3는 보웬병과 편평세포암종의 침습부위에서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 기저세포암종과 편평세포암종에서 CD8 양성 T 림프구와 Foxp3 양성 T 림프구는 침습부위에서 종양의 중심부위에 비하여 더 많이 침윤하였다. 이러한 결과로 보아 편평세포종양과 기저세포암종은 서로 다른 면역반응을 보이며 종양내에서도 부위에 따라 상이한 면역반응을 보인다고 생각된다.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid in diluted solvents on cell growth in 3T3-L1 cells according to the treated concentration and times. Methods: Adipocyte 3T3-L1 cell were cultured. Confluent cells underwent starvation with SFM for 1 day and then were cultured in a medium containing various concentrations 0, 100, 200, and $400{\mu}mol/L$ of ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid. The cell viability was measured using the EZ Cytox assay kit. In addition, the effect of ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid of diluted solvents on the cell growth in 3T3-L1cells was examined according to the treated concentration and times. Results: The ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid diluted ethanol inhibited cell proliferation in a dose and time dependent manner. The ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid diluted ethanol induced adipocyte 3T3-L1 cells proliferation with an adipocyte inducer. In addition, ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid inhibited adipocyte 3T3-L1 growth in a dose and time dependent manner (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study showed that a treatment with ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid diluted ethanol inhibits cell growth of, adipocyte 3T3-L1 cells induced with an adipocyte inducer, ($200{\mu}mol/L$ of ${\alpha}$-lipoic acid) treated for 48 hr.

To identify nongenotoxic carcinogen determined as negative by ICH guideline-recommended standard genotoxicity test battery; Ames test, chromosome aberration assay, mouse lymphoma $tk^{+/-}$ assay, in vivo micronucleus assay, we picked bisphenol A as a model compound. In this study, we applied in vitro BalB/c 3T3 cell transformation assay and Syrian hamster embryo (SHE) cell transfarmation assay. Bisphenol A was treated upto $769.2 ug/m{\ell}$ in BalB/c 3T3 cells and upto $125 ug/m{\ell}$ in SHE cells. bisphenol A didn't induced morphological transformation both with one stage treatment protocol and with two stage treatment protocol. But, treated far 48 hr, Bisphenol A induced morphological transformation significantly in SHE cells.

Using a murine T cell hybridoma, activation-induced cell death (AICD) was studied. As an in vitro model system for the AICD, 1 cell hybridoma expressing TCR/CD3 complex was incubated onto the immobilized purified anti-CD3 antibody. The immobilized anti-CD3 antibody induced AICD effectively up to 40%. At 1-100 $\mu$M range of SNP, an exogenous source of nitric oxide (NO), the cell proliferation was not affected, but at 1 mM SNP, cell proliferation was significantly reduced. The AICD of T cell hybridoma was inhibited by exogenous NO at non-cytotoxic concentration, In the cells undergoing AICD, the expressions of caspase-3 and FasL were detected, but not iNOS. Similar result was recognized in the apoptosis induced by dexamethasone, an apoptosis-inducing agent. However, the conversion from the inactive form of caspase-3 (32 kDa) to the active form (17 kDa) was significantly reduced in the cells in AICD induced by anti-CD3 antibody, With the result of increased PARP cleavage in the cells, we propose that another PARP cleavage pathway not involving caspase-3 may function in the anti-CD3 antibody induced AICD in the T cell hybridoma.
