안전성이 확보된 식용, 또는 약용식물로부터 항캔디다 활성이 우수한 항진균 후보물질을 개발하기 위해, 298종의 천연물로부터 추출부위 및 추출 용매를 달리하여 384종의 추출물을 제조하였다. 제조된 추출물의 항캔디다 활성을 disc-paper를 이용한 생육 저지환의 유무 및 크기 판정과 microbroth dilution법을 이용하여 C. albicans KCTC 1940과 S. cerevisiae IFO 0233를 대상으로 평가하였다. 그 결과 20종 식물로부터 조제된 25종의 추출물이 우수한 항캔디다 활성을 나타냄을 확인하였고, 그 중에서도 멍석딸기, 정향, 천황련, 작약, 모란, 대극잎 추출물은 강력 한 항캔디다 활성$(MIC=50 \mug/m\ell)$을 보였다. 특히, 멍석딸기(에틸아세테이트 추출물), 정향(부탄올 추출물), 호장근(에틸아세테이트 추출물), 작약(부탄올 추출물), 대극잎(메탄올 추출물)의 경우에는 C. albicans에 높은 선택독성을 나타내어, 안정성이 확보된 식물 추출물로부터 새로운 진균 감염증 치료제 개발이 가능함을 제시하였다.

Background: To determine the prevalence, types, and risk factors of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) among a group of Arab Jordanian dental patients, and to evaluate their awareness and attitudes toward early diagnosis and treatment. Materials and Methods: A total of 1,041 patients attending a University Hospital for dental care were examined for the presence of OPMDs. Histopathological examination was performed on all cases clinically diagnosed and patients were directly interviewed to evaluate their knowledge and attitudes toward early detection and treatment of oral cancer. Results: The prevalence of OPMDs overall was 2.8%. Lichen planus/lichenoid lesions were the most common lesions (1.8%) followed by leukoplakias (0.48%), chronic hyperplastic candidiosis (0.38%), and erythroplakia (0.096%). Smoking, alcohol, and age (>40 years) were the main identifiable risk factors. Patients with OPMDs displayed a general lack of awareness and negative attitudes towards early diagnosis and treatment. Conclusions: OPMDs among Arab dental patients are relatively uncommon and awareness about oral cancer among Jordanian dental patients is low. Interventions to improve public knowledge about oral cancer and attitudes toward early diagnosis and treatment are urgently indicated.
