This study was performed to observe the antimutagenic and cytotoxic activities of methanol extract of kochujang added with sea tangle and deep sea water salts (SDK) and kochujang added with sea tangle (SK) using the Ames test and SRB assay, respectively. The direct antimutagenic effect of SDK and SK methanol extracts were examined by Ames test using Salmonella Typhimurium TA98 and TA100. In the Ames test, methanol extract of SDK and SK alone did not exhibit mutagenicity and most of the samples showed high antimutagenic effects against mutation induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4NQO). Methanol extract of SDK ($200{\mu}g$/plate) showed approximately 71.4% inhibitory effect on the mutagenesis induced by 4NQO against TA98 strain; whereas 56.1% and 83.6% inhibitions were observed on the mutagenensis induced by 4NQO and MNNG against TA100 strain. The cytotoxic effects of SDK and SK increased with increasing sample concentration against human cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa), human hepatocellular carcinoma (Hep3B), human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), human stomach adenocarcinoma (AGS), and human lung carcinoma (A549). The SDK at the concentration of 1 mg/ml showed cytotoxicities of 61.5%, 61.3%, 51.4%, 57.9% and 77.7% against HeLa, Hep3B, MCF-7, AGS and A549, respectively. In contrast 1 mg/ml treatment of SDK and SK methanol extract had only $2{\sim}38%$ cytotoxicity on human transformed primary embryonal kidney cell (293).

All fifteen flavonoids (1-15) have been isolated from the roots of Sophora flavescens (Leguminosae) as active principles of the cytotoxic property toward human tumor cell lines such as A549, SK-OV-3, SK-Mel-2, XF498 and HCT15, in vitro. By means of spectral analyses, particularlyby the aid of various two dimensional NMR experiments, all $^1H-NMR$ ad $^{13}C$ -NMR signals of 1-15 were completely assigned, and thus the structures of 1-15 were established unambiguously.

Activity-guided fractionation and repeated column chromatography afforded two cytotoxic compounds R-3 and R-4 from the root of Rumex japonicus HOUTT. Compou nds were identified as musizin and emodin, respectively, by the physicochemical and spectral data. Besides R-3 and R-4, two compounds R-1 and R-2, chrysophanol and physcion, respectively, were also isolated. The compound R-3 and R-4 exhibited cytotoxicity against cultured human tumor cell lines, A-549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, XF498 and HCT15 with $ED_{50}$ values ranging from 2.68 to $10.06{\mu}g/ml$.

Two cucurbitane-compounds were isolated from the roots of Bryonia alba L. and the chemical structures were established as 19-norlanost-5-ene-3,1l,22-trione-$2{\beta}$, $16{\alpha}$,$20{\beta}$,25-tetrahydroxy-9-methyl (23,24-dihydrocucurbitacin D) and 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl 19-norlanost-5-ene-3,11,22-trione-$2{\beta}$,$16{\alpha}$,$20{\beta}$,25-tetrahydroxy-9-methyl (arvenin IV), respectively, on the basis of chemical and spectral methods. Both of the compounds showed cytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines, A549, SK-MEL-2, COLO 205 and L1210.

본 연구소에서 분리하여 항암활성을 측정한바 있는 Sesquiterpene lactone계열의 KR-53170이 in vitro에 비해 in vivo에서 상대적으로 낮은 효력을 보이는데 착안 그 유도체들을 합성함으로써 in vivo stability 및 efficacy를 개선하고자 하였다. 합성된 물질의 in vivo activity는 human tumor cell중에서 A549(폐암), SK-OV-3(난소암1, SK-MEL-2(피부암), XF-498(중추신경계암), HCT-15(직장암)의 5개 암세포를 이용하여 ED$_{50}$($\mu\textrm{g}$/ml )를 측정하였으며 대조물질로는 KR-53170과 Cisplatin이 사용되었다. 그 결과 HR-53170의 terminal methyl ketone이 carboxylic acid로 변환된 CW-251001과 이것의 methyl ester인 CW-251002, ethyl ester인 CW-251003, 그리고 morpheline과 수용성으로 N-methylpiperazine, N-methyl-N'-aminopiperazine, 4-Piperidinopiperidine을 결합시켜서 합성한 CW-251011, CW-251012, CW-251013, CW-251014가 in vitro에서 어느 정도 활성을 유지하였다. 특히 이들중 CW-251001, CW-251012, CW-251013, CW-2s1014는 물에 대한 용해도가 상당히 개선되어 in vivo 활성검색을 위한 후보물질로 고려되었다. 하지만 이들중 CW-251001은 in vivo에서 낮은 농도에서는 활성이 거의 없었으며 놓은 농도에서는 독성을 나타내었다.
