Objectives : This study was done with intend to investigate whether two oriental medical prescriptions, daecheongryong-tang (DCRT) and prescription A (P-A) significantly affect mucin release from cultured hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells. Methods : Confluent HTSE cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^3H$-glucosamine for 24 hrs and chased for 30 min in the presence of DCRT or P-A to assess the effect of each agent on $^3H$-mucin release. Possible cytotoxicities of each agent were assessed by measuring lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release. Also, the effects of DCRT and P-A on contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle were investigated. Results were as follows : 1. DCRT significantly inhibited mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with significant cytotoxicity. 2. P-A significantly increased mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with significant cytotoxicity. 3. DCRT inhibited Ach-induced contraction of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. 4. P-A also inhibited Ach-induced contraction of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. Conclusion: Results suggest that DCRT and P-A have regulating effects on mucin secretion from goblet cells. Further investigation is needed, because of the value in finding novel agents to this purpose, and these oriental medical prescriptions have potential for this role.

Objectives : In the present study, the authors intended to investigate whether two oriental medical prescriptions named chwiyeon-tang and chihyosan-gamibang significantly affect much release from cultured hamster tracheal surface epithelial HTSE cells. Methods : Confluent HTSE cells were metabolically radiolabeled with 3H-glucosamine for 24 hrs and chased for 30 min in the presence of chwiyeon-tang or chihyosan-gamibang to assess the effect of each agent on 3H-mucin release. Possible cytotoxicities of each agent were assessed by measuring lactate dehydrogenase LDH release. Also, the effect of chwiyeon-tang and chihyosan-gamibang on contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle were investigated. Results : (1) Chwiyeon-tang significantly inhibited mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with significant cytotoxicity ; (2) Chihyosan-gamibang significantly stimulated mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with minute cytotoxicity ; (3) Chwiyeon-tang and Chihyosan-gamibang did not affect contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. Conclusions : We suggest that the effects of Chwiyeon-tang and Chihyosan-gamibang with their components should be further investigated and it is of great value to find, from oriental medical prescriptions, noel agents which might regulate mucin secretion from airway goblet cells.

Objectives : In the present study, the author intended to investigate whether two oriental medical prescriptions named Socheongryongtang-ga-seoggo (SCTS) and Prescription D (P-D) significantly affect mucin release from cultured hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells. Materials and Methods : Confluent HTSE cells were metabolically radiolabeled with 3H-glucosamine for 24 hrs and chased for 30 min in the presence of SCTS or P-D to assess the effect of each agent on 3H-mucin release. Possible cytotoxicities of each agent were assessed by measuring lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release. Also, the effects of SCTS and P-D on contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle were investigated. Results : SCTS did not affect mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, without cytotoxicity. However, P-D significantly increased mucin release from cultured HTSE cells. with significant cytotoxicity. SCTS inhibited Ach-induced contraction of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. P-D also inhibited Ach-induced contraction of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. Conclusions : The author suggests that the effects of SCTS and P-D with their components should be further investigated and it is valuable to find, from oriental medical prescriptions, novel agents which might regulate mucin secretion from airway goblet cells.

This study was done to investigate the effects of Gamichihyo-san and Gamiijung-tang on airway mucus secretion. After administer Gamichihyo-san(GCHS) and Gamiijung-tang(GIJT) extract to Golden Syrian Hamster for 8-10 weeks, we examined mucin release from cultured hamster tracheal surface epithelial(HTSE) cells. Following results were obtained; GCHG significantly stimulated mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with minute cytotoxicity GIJT did not affect mucin release and have no cytotoxicity; GCHG and GIJT did not affect contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. These results suggest that Gamichihyo-san might be usefully applied for airway mucus secretion.

본 연구에서는 분자량 78,000과 9,600의 poly-L-lysine(PLL)이 일차배양된 햄스터의 기관표면 상피세포로부터의 뮤신유리에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 검증하고자 하였다. 완전히 다 자란 배양세포에 $^3H$-glucosamine을 함유하는 완전 배양액을 첨가하고 24시간 배양함으로써 배양세포 중의 뮤신에 대사적 방사선 표지를 완결한 후 다양한 농도의 PLL을 30분간 처리하고, 유리되는 방사성 뮤신의 함량을 측정하였다. PLL에 의한 세포독성 발현여부를 검증하기 위하여 PLL 처리 후 배양세포로부터 유리되어 배양액 중에 존재하는 Lactate Dehydrogenase(LDH)의 활성을 측정하였다. 실험 결과, PLL은 분자량 78,000 및 9,600의 두 물질 공히 용량 의존적으로 뮤신유리를 억제하였다. 그러나 세포독성의 지표인 LDH 유리에 대한 영향은 PLL 9,600의 경우에는 유의성이 없었으나, PLL 78,000의 경우에는 현저한 유리 증가를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 PLL의 경우, 분자량이 10,000 이하의 범위에서 세포독성을 발현하지 않으면서도 뮤신유리를 특이적으로 억제할 가능성을 제시하고 있으며, 동시에 PLL이 기도점액 과다분비 현상을 연구함에 있어서 유용한 실험수단으로 이용될 가능성도 제시하고 있는 것이다.

In this study, we tried to investigate whether diclofenac, acetaminophen, nimesulide, acetylsalicylic acid and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) significantly affect mucin release from cultured airway goblet cells. Confluent primary hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^3H$-glucosamine for 24 hr and chased for 30 min or 24 hr in the presence of each agent to assess the effects on $^3H$-mucin release. The results were as follows: (1) TNF-alpha significantly increased mucin release from cultured HTSE cells during 24 hr of treatment period; (2) However, diclofenac, acetaminophen, nimesulide and acetylsalicylic acid did not affect mucin release, during 30 min of treatment period. Basically, this finding suggests that non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) might not function as a mucoregulator in various inflammatory respiratory diseases showing mucus hypersecretion, although further studies are needed.

In this study, we investigated whether TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, CTMA (carboxymethyl trimethylammonium) and LPD (Lup-20[29]-ene-3beta,28-diol) affect mucin release from airway goblet cells and compared the activities of these agents with the inhibitory action of PLL and the stimulatory action of ATP on mucin release. Confluent primary hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^3H-glucosamine$ for 24 h and chased for 30 min in the presence of varying concentrations of each agent to assess the effects on $^3H-mucin$ release. The results were as follows: TNF-alpha, CTMA and LPD increased mucin release at the highest concentration, but IL-1beta did not. We conclude that CTMA and LPD can stimulate mucin release by directly acting on airway mucin-secreting cells, and suggest that these agents should be further investigated for the possible use as mild expectorants during the treatment of chronic airway diseases.

Objective : To investigate the effectiveness of two oriental medical prescriptions named Sigoungcheongpyetang(SCPT) and Tonggyutanggamibang(TGT) for mucin release from cultured hamster tracheal surface epithelial(HTSE) cells. Method : Confluent HTSE cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^{3}H-glucosamine$ for 24hrs and chased for 30 min in the presence of SCPT or TGT to assess the effect of each agent $^{3}H-mucin$ release. Possible cytotoxicities of each agent were assessed by measuring lactate dehy drogenase(LDH) release. Also, the effects of SCPT and TGT on contrectility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle were investigated. Results : (1) SCPT and TGT significantly increased mucin release from cultured HTSE cells, with significantly cytotoxicity ; SCPT did not affect contractility of isolated tracheal smooth muscle and TGT inhibited Ach-induced contraction of isolated tracheal smooth muscle. Conclusion : We suggest that the effects of SCPT and TGT with their components should be further investigated and it is of great value to find, from oriental medical prescriptions, novel agents which might regulate mucin secretion from airway goblet cells.

저자는 白色레그혼의 種卵을 孵化시켜 얻은 鷄胎呼吸氣道의 alkaline phosphatase, RNA, PAS 陽性物質 및 燐肥質의 분포와 소장을 組織化學的으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. alkaline phosphatase는 軟骨形成에 앞서 氣道上皮 주위의 間充織에 고도의 活性을 나타냈으며 軟骨形成 後에는 反應은 감소되었고 胎生後期에는 phosphatase 活性은 上皮에만 관찰되었다. 2. RNA는 胎生초에 氣道上의 細胞質內에 陽性反應을 보였으며 軟骨形成에 앞서 上皮주위에 밀집하기 시작한 間充織에도 점차 陽性을 나타냈으나 軟骨形成후에는 이 反應은 감소하였고 鷄胎末期에 腺形成에 따라 腺上皮의 細胞質內에도 陽性 呈色反應을 보엿다. 3. PAS 陽性物質은 基底膜, 杯狀細胞 및 腺形成後에 腺內腔을 제외하고는 陰性反應을 나타냈으며 燐脂質은 發生期의 肺域내의 細氣管支上皮와 腺胞를 제외하고는 비교적 약한 呈色反應이나 陰性을 보였다.
