Objective : We aimed to identify the effects of Bogimakseong-bang(BGMSB) treatment on cBSA-induced MN in a mouse model. Methods : We divided 20 mice into 4 groups. The normal group (NR) had no treatment. We used cBSA to induced MN to the other 3 groups. One group (CT) was treated with cBSA (7mg/kg i.p) only. The second (BG-250) was treated with cBSA (7mg/kg i.p) and BGMSB extract (250mg/kg, p.o). The third group (BG-500) was treated with cBSA(7mg/kg i.p) and BGMSB extract (500mg/kg, p.o). After cBSA and BGMSB extract treatment for 4 weeks, proteinuria, serum albumin, total cholesterol, serum creatinine, BUN, total nucleated spleen cell number and total infiltrated kidney cell number of all groups were measured. CD3e+/CD19+ and CD4+/CD8 cells ratio of peripheral blood, kidney and spleen of all groups were analyzed. $IL-1{\beta}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$, IL-6, IgG, IgM, and $IFN-{\gamma}$ levels of all groups were gauged. Histological analysis of kidney tissue and immunohistochemical staining (CD4 CD8) of kidneys were observed. Results : Proteinuria significantly decreased and serum albumin increased in groups treated with cBSA and BGMSB extract compared with the control. Total cholesterol decreased but not significantly. CD3e+/CD19cells ratio of peripheral blood decreased. CD3e+/CD19+ and CD4+/CD8 cells percentage of kidney and spleen showed no significant change. Level of $IL-1{\beta}$, $TNF-{\alpha}$ and IL-6 significantly decreased. and $IFN-{\gamma}$ increased but has not significantly. Concentration of IgG and IgM significantly decreased compared with control. Thickness of GBM decreased on histological analysis of kidney. Deposition of CD4 and CD8 decreased on immunohistochemical staining of kidney. Conclusions : According to the above result, BGMSB had a significant effect for treating MN which is cBSA-induced.

It has well studied that immune cells are strongly related to tumor progression and tumor suppression. To identify the difference of immune cell between tumor bearing mice and normal mice, we examined systemically the immune cell of CT26 tumor bearing mice on 21 days after tumor cell administration. As previously reported, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells population of tumor bearing mice significantly decreased 38% and 30% on day 21 compared to that of normal mice, respectively. All subpopulation of CD4 and CD8+ T cell significantly decreased, except CD49b+ T cell subpopulation. But, myeloid cell population ($CD11b^{high}$ and all Gr-1+ subpopulation) of tumor bearing mice significantly increased on day 21. Especially, all subpopulation of CD11b+Gr-1+ cell of tumor bearing mice significantly increased on day 21. Also, Foxp3+$CD25^{high}$ CD4 T cell (regulatory T cells) population significantly increased on day 21. These results suggest that tumor can induce the decline of T lymphocyte and the expansion of myeloid cells and regulatory T cells, and provide the basic information for the study of tumor immunology.

목 적 : H. pylori의 감염은 세균의 병독 인자, 숙주 인자, 환경 인자가 복합적으로 작용하여 다양한 위장관 병변을 일으킨다. H. pylori의 병리 기전으로 지금까지는 주로 세균의 병독성에 초점을 맞추었으나 최근에는 숙주의 위점막 면역반응이 주목을 받고 있다. 소아는 술, 담배, 약물과 같은 환경 인자의 영향이 적어 연구에 적합한 대상이며 감염 초기를 반영한다는 측면에서 중요한 의의가 있음에도 불구하고 소아에서 위점막 면역반응에 관한 연구가 거의 없다. 이에 H. pylori 감염 소아에서 위점막 림프구를 분석하여 소아에서 H. pylori 감염으로 인한 국소 면역반응의 특징을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군 10명, H. pylori 양성 위염군 15명, H. pylori 음성 대조군 20명에서 얻은 위전정부 생검조직에서 hematoxylin-eosin 염색과 modified Giemsa 염색을 시행하여 개정된 시드니 체계에 따라 위염의 정도를 점수화하였다. 위점막에서 림프구 면역표현형을 알기 위해 CD3, CD4, CD8 T세포와 CD20 B세포에 대한 면역조직화학염색을 시행하였으며 점막 고유층에서는 400배 고배율 현미경 하에서 $0.0625m^2$ 당 양성 림프구 수를 기록하였고, 상피세포 내에서는 100개 상피세포 당 양성 림프구 수를 기록하였다. 결 과 : 림프구 침윤은 점막 고유층에서 상피세포 내보다 확연히 많았다. 점막 고유층에서 H. pylori 양성군에서 대조군에 비해 CD3, CD4, CD8 T세포와 CD20 B세포가 유의하게 증가하였고(P<0.01) H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군은 위염군과 달리 대조군에 비해 CD8 T세포가 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). 한편, 상피세포 내에서는 H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군과 위염군 모두 대조군에 비해 CD4 T세포가 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.01). H. pylori의 밀도, 다핵형 중성구의 활동성, 만성 염증 정도와 림프구 수는 점막 고유층에서 상피세포 내보다 더 밀접한 상관관계가 있었다. 결 론: H. pylori에 감염된 소아의 국소 면역반응은 주로 위점막 고유층에서 일어나며 T세포와 B세포가 함께 관여하였다. H. pylori 양성 소화궤양군에서 점막 고유층의 CD8 T세포가 유의하게 증가하여 임상질환과 점막면역의 연관성을 추정할 수 있었다. 향후 H. pylori 감염에서 국소 면역반응으로 야기되는 점막 손상, 연령과 인종에 따른 차이, 임상질환과의 연관성 등에 대하여 더 많은 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Background: SMG (升麻葛根湯加味方) is an herbal medicine which has been used in oriental medicine as a traditional therapeutic agent of pruritus and skin disease. Objective: This study was performed to investigate the effect of SMG on the anti-hypersensitivity and immune response in the murine of type I hypersensitivity induced by the experiment. Materials and Methods: Laboratory rats were primary sensitized with OA (ovalbumin); on day 1, rats of a Control group and Sample group (SMG group) were systemically immunized by subcutaneous injection of 1mg OA and 300mg of Al(OH)3 in a total volume of 2ml saline. The rats of the sample group were orally administered with an SMG water extract for 14 days after primary immunization. On day 14 after the systemic immunization, rats received local immunization by inhaling $0.9\%$ saline aerosol containing $2\%$(wt/vol) OA. A day after local immunization, BAL fluid and peripheral blood were collected from the rats. Total cell, lymphocyte, $CD4^+\;T\;cell,\;CD8^+\;T\;cell,\;CD4^+/CD8^+$ ratio in the BALF, and IgE, $CD4^+\;T\;cell,\;CD8^+$ T cell in the peripheral blood were measured and evaluated. Results: SMG showed a suppressive effect on the immune response in the rats. 1. Total Cells in the BALF decreased in the SMG treated group in comparison group, but statistic differences were not observed. 2. Total lymphocytes in the BALF were statistically decreased in SMG treated group in comparison to the control group. 3. CD4+ T cells in the BALF were statistically decreased in SMG treated group in comparison to the control group. 4. CD8+ T cells in the BALF were decreased in SMG treated group in comparison to the control group, but statistic differences were not observed. 5. The ratio of CD4+/CD8+ in the BALF was statistically decreased in SMG treated group in comparison to the control group. 6. The IgE level in serum was statistically decreased in SMG treated group in comparison to the control group. 7. The ratio of CD4+ and CD8+ in peripheral blood showed undetectable differences between each group of rats. From the experiment cited above, this study shows that SMG has both anti-hypersensitivity effects and immunoregulatory effects when administered to rats. Based on this experiment, it is suggested that SMG could be a useful immunomodulator and anti-allergy agent.

This study was carried out to know the effects of Kwanjulbang-6(GJB-6) on the inhibition of arthritis. GJB-6 was orally administered to mouse with arthritis induced by collagen II . Cytotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, arthritis index, value of immunocyte in draining lymph node and paw joint, rheumatoid factor in serum were measured in vivo. The incidence of arthritis was significantly decreased. Total cell number of draining lymph node was significantly increased compared with control. Total cell number of paw joint was significantly decreased compared with control. The absolute number of $CD19^+$, $CD8^+$, $CD3^+/CD69^+$, $CD3^+/CD49b^+$, $CD4^+/CD44^+$, $CD3^+$, $CD4^+$, $CD4^+/CD25^+$ and $CD3^+/CD8^+$ cells in draining lymph node were significantly increased compared with control. The absolute number of $CD3^+$, $CD4^+$, $CD4^+/CD25^+$ and $CD11b^+/Gr-1^+$ cells in paw joint were significantly decreased compared with control. The absolute number of $B220^+/CD23^+$ and $MHCII^+/CD11c^+$ cell in draining lymph node were significantly decreased compared with control. The levels of IgG was decreased and The levels of IgM was significantly decreased compared with control. Anti-collagen II in serum was significantly decreased compared with control. With the hematoxylin and eosin stain, the cartilage destruction and synovial cell proliferation were decreased compared with control. With the Masson's trichrome stain, the expression of collagen fibers was decreased compared with control. Results showed that GJB-6 had immunomodulatory effects. So we expect that GJB-6 should be used as a effective drugs for not only rheumatoid arthritis but also another auto-immune disease.
