배초향 추출물 및 분획별 생리활성 물질의 분포양상을 검정하기 위해 파이토케미컬 검색을 한 결과, 플라보노이드 확인시험에서 헥세인을 제외한 에틸아세테이트 및 부탄올 분획에서 양성반응을 확인하였다. 배초향 추출물의 극성에 따른 분획-헥세인, 에틸아세테이트 및 부탄올 분획의 산화방지 정도를 평가한 결과, 폴리페놀 함량, DPPH 라디칼 소거 및 환원력 실험에서 에틸아세테이트 분획이 다량의 폴리페놀을 함유하며 강력한 라디칼 소거 및 환원능력을 나타냈다. 또한 배초향 에틸아세테이트 분획의 항염 활성을 평가한 결과, 지방질다당류로 활성화된 BV-2 microglia에서 발생하는 과량의 산화질소(II) 생성을 억제하였을 뿐 아니라, 산화질소(II) 생성 효소인 iNOS 및 염증성 사이토카인 IL-6의 발현을 억제함을 확인하였다. 강력한 산화방지 및 항염증 활성을 나타내는 배초향 에틸아세테이트 분획내의 활성물질을 확인하고자 HPLC를 이용하여 분석한 결과, 배초향의 산화방지 물질로 잘 알려져 있는 로스마린산이 배초향 에틸아세테이트 분획에 함유되어 있음을 확인하였다.

It has been known that quercetin is one of bioflavonid compounds and has anti-tumor effect by suppressing tumor growth in vitro and in vivo, including multiple biological effects by antioxidant and effective anti-inflammatory agent. The present study investigated whether quercetin can enhance antioxidant enzyme activity (glutathione proxidase: GPX, superoxide dismutase: SOD, catalase: CAT) and regulate the intracellular reactive oxygen intermediate levels on the B16F10 murine melanoma cells in the presensece of vitamin E, L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and reduced glutathione (GSH).

In the present study, the effect of Z. jujuba Miller var. inermis Rehder extracts on the secretion of atopic dermatitis (AD)-related cytokines and hyaluronidase activity was investigated. We prepared four fractions, butylene glycol (JB), ethanol (JE), and water (JW), with Z. jujuba Miller var. inermis extracts. JW significantly reduced the secretion of interleukin-8 and JE reduced the secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. Also, hyaluronidase activity was measured by enzyme assay and the fractions inhibited the activity in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, the human dermal fibroblast, HDF-n cells were treated with the extracts and antioxidant activities were measured. The results showed that the extracts increased the free radical scavenging activity and the superoxide dismutase activity. Taken together, Z. jujuba Miller var. inermis extracts reduced the secretion of AD-related cytokines and inhibited the hyaluronidase. In addition, the extracts showed antioxidant activity.

Methods: In this experiment, the anti-inflammatory effects of ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos were evaluated by checking the following substances of LPS-activated Raw264.7 cell: Prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂), Nitric oxide (NO), Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), inducible Nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), Interlukine-1β (IL-1β), Interlukine-6 (IL-6), Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Inhibitor of kappa B-α (IκBα), Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). And additionally measured reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals to check the antioxidant effect of ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos which affect inflammatory responses. Results: As a result of measuring anti-inflammatory efficacy, PGE2, NO, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α production amounts were reduced in the ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos groups compared with the control group, and decreased the amount of COX-2 mRNA, iNOS mRNA gene expression. Expression of MAPK (ERK, JNK, p38) pathway was decreased. Expression of IκBα was increased and NF-κB was decreased. It is demonstrated that ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos, by reducing NF-κB, regulate the expression of the inflammatory genes and reduce the inflammatory mediators. Ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos also decreased ROS production and free radicals, which shown to have antioxidant efficacy and influence anti-inflammatory effects. Conclusions: These data suggest that ethanol extracts from Forsythia viridissima Lindley's fructus and Lonicera japonica Thunberg's flos can be used to treat various inflammatory diseases.

Nardostachys chinensis has been used widely as a traditional medicine for the treatment of diverse diseases. The dried plant was extracted with 85% methanol extract (NC). We investigated the antioxidant properties of NC on the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, superoxide anion and nitric oxide radical scavenging capacity under in vitro assays. NC showed potent antioxidant activity, compared to ascorbic acid. In macrophages, nitric oxide is released as an inflammatory mediator and has been proposed to be an important modulator of many pathophysiological conditions in inflammation. In the present study, it was also investigated that the inhibition effects on NO and the mechanism of down-regulation of immune response by NC in IFN-IFN-$\gamma$/LPS-stimulated mouse (C57BL/6) peritoneal macrophages. Extracts of NC suppressed NO production and the expression of iNOS and COX-2. The present results indicate that NC has an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and therefore may be beneficial in diseases which related to oxidative stress-mediated chronic inflammatory disorders.

가미십전대보탕(이하 KSD로 표기) 추출물은 생약 성분으로 인체 및 동물에 투여 시 세포 독성 및 장기에 중금속 등에 의한 독성 물질이 발생할 수 있어 안전성이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 KSD의 안전성 확보를 위해 중금속 검사, 간과 신장 기능 지표 검사 및 RAW 264.7 세포 생존 시험을 거친 후 RAW 264.7 세포를 이용하여 KSD 추출물의 항산화 및 항염증 효과를 알아보았다. KSD 추출물에서 중금속은 발견되지 않거나 기준치 미만으로 검출되었다. 간기능지표인 AST, ALT는 정상군에 비해 낮게 나타났으며 신기능 지표인 Cr, BUN도 정상군과 같거나 낮아 인체에 안전함을 확인하였다. RAW 264.7 세포 독성은 대조군 대비 농도별 생존율에 차이가 없었다. KSD 추출물의 항산화 효능 측정 결과 DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 ABTS 라디칼 소거능은 $10{\mu}g/mL$ 이상의 농도에서 의존적으로 활성이 증가하였다. 항염증 효과 측정 결과 NO 생성량은 대조군에 비해 10, $100{\mu}g/mL$에서 유의성 있는 감소를 보였으며, $IL-1{\beta}$와 IL-6는 농도 의존적으로 발현량이 감소하였고, $TNF-{\alpha}$는 유의적 차이점을 발견할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과를 보아 KSD는 골절 치료를 위한 생약으로 안전성 및 항산화 및 염증 감소에 효과가 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives : This study was designed to compare the effects of acanthopanax stem bark (ASB) and acanthopanax root bark (ARB) on the monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced osteoarthritis rats. Methods : The antioxidant activities were evaluated through radical scavenging assays using 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radicals and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals. Also, we examined total poly phenol and flavonoids contents. Osteoarthritis was caused by injection MIA($50{\mu}{\ell}$ with $80mg/m{\ell}$) into the knee joint cavity of rats. Rats were divided by 4 groups (normal group, control group, ASB treated group, ARB treated group, each n=6). The changes in the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum were analyzed after experiment. Also, the anti-oxidant, inflammatory protein levels were investigated western blot analysis. Knee joint tissue, histopathological observation hematoxylin & eosin staining and safranin-O staining were measured. Results : In the present study, ARB treated group showed superior inhibitory effects on the inflammatory parameters than the ASB treated group. ARB aqueous extract was effective in antioxidant measurements. The administration of ARB showed a significant reduction of changes in relative hind paw weight distribution. Morever, it decreased ROS, ALT and AST levels in serum, compared with those of the control rats. The ARB administration inhibited the biomarkers of inflammatory in tissues. Conclusions : ASB aqueous extract and ARB aqueous extract have a great effect on osteoarthritis, and ARB aqueous extract has excellent effect on osteoarthritis through antioxidant and anti-inflammation.
