본 연구에서는 사구식물인 갯메꽃(Calystegia soldanella), 모래지치(Messerschmidia sibirica), 순비기나무(Vitex rotundifolia), 해당화(Rosa rugosa)의 잎과 줄기의 methanol 추출물에서 측정한 총 폴리페놀 함량은 해당화(110.20 mg/g)가 가장 높았고, 총 플라보노이드 함량은 순비기나무(38.07 mg/g)가 가장 높게 측정되었다. 추출물의 에틸아세테이트 분획물(조플라보노이드)을 이용하여 라디칼 소거능을 나타내는 DPPH, ABTS, FRAP assay로 항산화능을 측정하였다. 그리고 총 폴리페놀 / 플라보노이드 함량 (TFC/TPC) 비와 항산화능, 두 요인 사이의 상관관계에 대하여 분석하였다. TFC/TPC 비율이 매우 높았던 순비기 나무의 잎과 줄기는 항산화능 실험에서 대조군인 ascorbic acid 보다 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 가장 낮았던 해당화 잎이 DPPH, ABTS assay에서 가장 항산화능이 높았고, FRAP assay에서 모래지치 줄기가 가장 뛰어났다. 위 결과에서 항산화활성과 TFC/TPC 간의 상관관계를 통계적으로 유의하다는 점을 확인하여 TFC/TPC의 값이 직접적으로 항산화능에 기여 한다고 판단된다.

노화가 진행될수록 활성산소종으로 인하여 피부 보습은 떨어지고 피부 장벽은 붕괴되어 피부가 손상된다. 본 연구에서는 인천 동막 해변에 서식하는 염생식물인 갯끈풀(Spartina anglica; SAE)과 갯메꽃(Calystegia soldanella; CSE)을 70% 에탄올(EtOH)로 추출하여 피부 보습 및 피부 장벽 기능 강화에 대한 효능을 평가하였다. 이 추출물들에 대한 피부 각질형성세포(HaCaT cell)에서 세포독성을 WST-8 assay를 이용하여, 세포 생존율이 90% 이상을 보이는 농도를 선별하여 추가 실험을 진행하였다. ABTS 라디칼 소거능을 통해 항산화 효과를 확인한 결과, SAE와 CSE는 높은 라디칼 소거능을 보였다. 피부 보습과 관련된 인자들인 filaggrin (FGL), aquaporin 3(AQP3), hyaluronan synthase 2 (HAS2)과 피부 장벽 기능과 연관 있는 transglutaminase 1 (TGM1)과 involucrin (INV)의 유전자 수준에서의 발현 변화를 측정한 결과, SAE에 의해 AQP3, HAS2, TGM1의 발현이 증가하였으나, CSE는 변화가 없는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. SAE에 의한 세포 내 신호전달 경로를 확인하기 위해 western blot 분석을 수행하였다. Extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen activated protein kinase의 활성이 SAE에 의하여 상향 조절되었음을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 갯끈풀 추출물이 피부 보습 및 피부 장벽 기능 강화를 위한 화장품의 기능성 소재로 사용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

The coastal dune ecosystem is one of the ecosystems under the most development pressure in Korea. Therefore, it is necessary to study the ecological location and related ecological phenomena of coastal dune plants, but related studies are lacking. Through this study, we intend to conduct research on the structure and restoration of dune plants, focusing on the coastal dunes in Jeju Island, which are affected by artificial development pressure and the continuous increase in tourists among many coastal dunes in Korea. Ecosystems of coastal sand dunes for vegetation survey in Jeju Island are selected based on naturalness and preservation. In this study, 23 major coastal dunes on Jeju Island including Udo were selected. In the coastal dunes of Jeju Island, a whole species survey and quadrat survey were carried out. The vegetation survey at study sites were conducted on May to September 2022, when the vegetation is clearly visible. At the survey site, the dune area was identified at the beginning and the plant species were recorded until no more new species appeared. Vegetation survey in the field was performed by 103 quadrat establishments and was conducted using Braun-Blanquet method. A total of 277 species appeared, and the most common species were Vitex rotundifolia and Calystegia soldanella. The frequency of both Vitex rotundifolia and Calystegia soldanella was approximately over 90%. The proportion of woody and herbaceous in all emerging species was 7.2% and 92.8%, respectively. The total number of species found in the quadrat survey was 98. As a result of classifying plant communities based on species dominance in the quadrats, it was analyzed into 30 plant communities. The plant communities that appeared with a frequency of 2 or more on the main island of Jeju were Vitex rotundifolia, Imperata cylindrica var. koenigii, Ischaemum antephoroides, Wedelia prostrata, Elymus mollis, Calystegia soldanella, Artemisia scoparia, and Tetragonia tetragonoides. The DCCA(detrended canonical correspondence analysis) based on the vegetation and environment factor matrix showed that the height and covers of the dominant plant species explain significantly the variation and distribution of coastal sand dune species on Jeju island. Thus, we may propose a plan to restore the coastal dunes of Jeju island as helping colonization and establishment of mainly sand dune native perennials and trees, preserving native plant communities that are declining and preserving present tree strips of Pinus thunbergii, Litsea japonica, Pittosporum tobira and Vitex rotundifolia.

This study was conducted to determine the extent of drought resistance based on physiological responses of Calystegia soldanella under water deficit. In order to investigate the changes of plant growth, stomatal density, photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, the contents of chlorophyll and carotenoid, osmolality, total ion contents, the contents of carbohydrate and proline, C. soldanella was grown under well watered and drought stressed conditions for 12 days. In this study, water-deficit resulted in remarkable growth inhibition of C. soldanella. The effect of water-deficit on plant growth was associated with low osmotic potential of soil. On day 12 after drought treatment, dry weight, relative water contents, number and area of leaves and stem length were lower than those of control. The stomatal conductance and net photosynthetic rate were significantly reduced in water stressed plant to regulate inner water contents and $CO_2$ exchange through the stomatal pore. Chlorophyll fluorescence and chlorophyll contents were not different in comparison with the control, indicating that the efficiency of photosystem II was not affected by drought stress. This results could be explained that water-deficit in C. soldanella limits the photosynthetic rate and reduces the plant's ability to convert energy to biomass. A significant increase in total ion contents and osmolality was observed on day 7 and day 12. Accumulation of proline in leaves is associated with the osmotic adjustment in C. soldanella to soil water-deficit. Consequently, this increase in osmolality in water stressed plant can be a result in the increase of ion contents and proline.

Little is known about the bacterial communities associated with the plants inhabiting sand dune ecosystems. In this study, the bacterial populations associated with two major sand dune plant species, Calystegia soldanella (beach morning glory) and Elymus mollis (wild rye), growing along the costal areas in Tae-An, Chungnam Province, were analyzed using a culture-dependent approach. A total of 212 bacteria were isolated from the root and rhizosphere samples of the two plants, and subjected to further analysis. Based on the analysis of the 16S rDNA sequences, all the bacterial isolates were classified into six major phyla of the domain Bacteria. Significant differences were observed between the two plant species, and also between the rhizospheric and root endophytic communities. The isolates from the rhizosphere of the two plant species were assigned to 27 different established genera, and the root endophytic bacteria were assigned to 21. Members of the phylum Gammaproteobacteria, notably the Pseudomonas species, comprised the majority of both the rhizospheric and endophytic bacteria, followed by members of Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes in the rhizosphere and Alphaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes in the root. A number of isolates were recognized as potentially novel bacterial taxa. Fifteen out of 27 bacterial genera were commonly found in the rhizosphere of both plants, which was comparable to 3 out of 21 common genera in the root, implying the host specificity for endophytic populations. This study of the diversity of culturable rhizospheric and endophytic bacteria has provided the basis for further investigation aimed at the selection of microbes for the facilitation of plant growth.

This study examined the coastal sand dune vegetation before and after the construction of an embankment on Anmado Island in order to compare vegetation in relation to the development of islands. A total of 24 species distributed on the sand dunes. 18 species were found to be in common before and after the construction of the embankment, which included Vitex rotundifolia, Imperata cylindrica var. koenigii, Zoysia sinica, etc. The species which were not found in this survey included Rumex japonicus, Setaria viridis, Portulaca oleracea, Artemisia japonica, Poiygonum aviculare, etc, and new species included Arena fatua, Carex boottiana, Lycium chinense, Leonurus sibiricus, Torilis japonica, Solanum carolinense, etc. The washing away of sand brought about the changes in habitat and the increase in naturalized plants, which included Oenothera odorata, Lepidium apetalum, Bidens bipinnata, Erigeron canadensis, Datura stramonium, Xanthium strumarium, Arena fatua, Solanum carolinense etc. In addition, the disturbance to this habitat led to the changes in vegetation. The main plant communities in the surveyed site were classified as Vitex rotundifolia-Imperata cylindrica var. koenigil community, Zoysia sinica-Calystegia soldanella community and Messerschmidia sibirica community. The sand dune vegetation on Anmado Island changed with regard to the community and the composition of species after the construction of the embankment, due to the sand being severely eroded. While Vitex rotundifolia community and Commelina communis community were found before the construction of the embankment, they were replaced by Vitex rotundifolia-Imperata cylindrica var. koenigii community, Zoysia sinica-Calystegia soldanella community and Messerschmidia sibirica community, after the construction of the embankment.
