스트레스가 위장관 기능을 변화시키며 이에는 interleukin과 시상하부-뇌하수체-부신피질 축이 관여한 다고 알려져 있다. 한편 우울증이 기능성 위장관 장애 및 interleukin과 연관성을 지닌다. 본 연구에서는 IL-$1\beta$, IL-2, IL-6의 혈청 농도를 기능성 위장관 장애 환자에서 측정하고, 혈청 cortisol 및 우울증과 스트레스의 정도를 조사하여 기능성 위장관 장애에 있어서 interleukin의 역할과 우울증 및 스트레스와의 상관성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 방법: 기능성 위장관 장애의 진단을 위한 로마기준 II에 따라 진단된 환자 20명과 건강한 대조군 20명을 대상으로 하였다. 채취한 혈액에서 혈청을 분리한 다음 Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay 방법으로 혈청 IL-$1\beta$, IL-2, IL-6 농도를 측정하고 Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay 방법으로 혈청 cortisol 농도 를 측정하였다. 우울증상의 정도를 Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression을 이용하여 평가하고, Schedule of Recent Experience를 이용하여 최근 일년간의 스트레스 생활사건의 양을 측정하여 비교하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 결과: 1) 기능성 위장관 장애 환자들의 혈청 IL-$1\beta$, IL-2 농도는 대조군에 비해 유의하게 낮았으나 혈청 IL-6 농도는 차이가 없었다. 2) 기능성 위장관 장애 환자군의 혈청 cortisol 농도는 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높았고, 우울증상도 유의하게 더 심하였으며, 스트레스 생활사건의 양 또한 유의하게 더 많았다. 3) 기능성 위장관 장애에서 우울증상의 정도와 혈청 cortisol 간에는 유의한 정상관관계가 있었다. 정도는 IL-$1\beta$와 역상관하는 경향이 있고, IL-2와는 정상관하였다. 스트레스 생활사건의 양파 혈청 cortisol 농도는 IL-6 와 유의하게 정상관하였다 대조군을 포함한 전 집단에서 IL-$1\beta$는 우울 정도, 스트레스 생활사건의 양, 혈청 cortisol 등과 유의하게 역 상관하였다. IL-6와 의하게 정상관하였다. 결론: 기능성 위장관 장애는 우울증 및 스트레스와 연관되며, 우울증, 스트레스가 심할수록 혈청 cortisol이 높았다. 기능성 위장관 장애 환자들에서 IL-$1\beta$, IL-2가 감소되어 있었지만, IL-6는 변화가 없었다. 상대적으로 증가된 혈청 cortisol이 IL의 변화와 관련될 수 있다고 생각된다.

연구배경 : 특발성 폐 섬유화확 병인론으로 폐포염과 폐에 침윤한 염증세포 및 폐 조직자체의 실질세포들이 성장인자를 포함한 다양한 cytokine을 분비하여 실질조직을 구성하는 세포에 손상을 야기함으로써 종국에는 섬유화를 초래하는 것으로 이해하고 있다. 그러나 이들에 대한 개괄적인 연구가 부족하고 매개체 각각에 대한 단편적인 논문들뿐이어서 본 연구에서는 BLM유도 폐 손상및 섬유화의 발생기전에 있어서 IL-1, IL-6, TNF-$\alpha$와 TGF-${\beta}_1$, PDGF, bFGF들의 역할을 규명하고자 하였다. 방 법 : Wistar백서를 정상대조군, BLM투여군, BLM과 비타민 E병합투여군으로 나누었고 BLM 투여후 제 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 14, 21, 28일에 각각 도살한 다음 기관지폐포 세척술을 시행하여 시기별 총 세포수, 세포 구성성분비율을 살펴보았고 TGF-${\beta}_1$, PDGF, bFGF, IL-1, IL-6, TNF-$\alpha$에 대한 면역조직화학 염색, TGF-${\beta}_1$ mRNA에 대한 동소보합결합검사를 시행, 각 매개체의 생성소, 발현분포 및 정도를 분석하였다. 결 과 : BLM 투여후 1~7 일에 중성구와 기관지상피세포에서 생성된 IL-1, IL-6는 폐손상부위로 원하는 것으로 생각되며 7일이내에 기관지상피세포에서의 IL-1, IL-6 의 양성발현은 기관지상피세포가 BLM 유도 폐 섬유화시 기도주변에서 일어나는 염증 및 면역반응을 항진 및 유지시키는 간접증거로 생각된다. TNF-$\alpha$는 BLM투여후 1~5일에는 기관지상피세포, 중성구가 주생성소로 폐손상부위로의 염증세포의 이동에 주요역할을 하는 것으로 생각되며 7~28일에는 대식세포가 주생성소로서 섬유화를 촉진시키는 것으로 생각된다. TGF-${\beta}_1$은 기관지 상피세포, 대식세포가 주생성소로서 섬유모세포가 표적세포로 생각되며 섬유모세포가 세포외 기질을 생성하도록 자극하고 대식세포에서 유리된 PDGF와 함께 섬유모세포의 증식을 자극한다. 대식세포 및 섬유모세포에서 유리된 bFGF는 TGF-${\beta}_1$과 함께 교원질과 같은 세포외기질의 생성을 자극하는 것으로 여겨진다. 비타민 E와 BLM 병합투여군의 경우 6가지 성장인자 및 cytokine의 발현세포는 같았으나 발현세포수는 극히 미미하였고 trichrome염색상 섬유화도 미약하였다. 결 론 : BLM으로 인한 혈관내피 및 폐포상피세포 손상이후 침윤한 중성구 및 기관지 상피세포가 IL-1, IL-6, TNF-$\alpha$를 분비하여 BLM투여 1~7 일에 많은 수의 중성구를 동원하도록 유도하며 이들이 유리하는 다양한 효소 및 산소유리기가 폐의 정상구조를 파괴하여 섬유화를 시작하게 하는 것으로 생각한다. 손상이 진행됨에 따라 BLM투여 7~28 일에 대식세포가 유리하는 TGF-${\beta}_1$, PDGF, bFGF, TNF-$\alpha$는 섬유모세포를 자극, 이들의 증식을 유도하고 또한 세포외기질의 생성증가를 유도하여 폐 섬유화를 진행시키는 것으로 사료되며 TNF-$\alpha$는 BLM투여후 전 기간에 걸쳐 다수의 세포에서 발현된 점으로 미루어 섬유화에 있어서 TGF-${\beta}_1$ 못지않은 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 여겨진다. 또한 비타민 E가 BLM유도 폐 손상으로 인한 폐 섬유화의 정도를 감소시키는 것으로 생각한다.

Collaboration of TLR and non-TLR pathways in innate immune cells, which acts in concert for the induction of inflammatory cytokines, can mount a specific adaptive immune response tailored to a pathogen. Here, we show that murine DC produced increased IL-23 and IL-6 when they were treated with LPS together with curdlan that activates TLR4 and dectin-1, respectively. We also found that the induction of the inflammatory cytokine production by LPS and curdlan requires activation of IKK. However, the same treatment did not induce DC to produce a sufficient amount of TGF-${\beta}$. As a result, the conditioned media from DC treated with LPS and curdlan was not able to direct $CD4^+$ T cells to Th17 cells. Addition of TGF-${\beta}$ but not IL-6 or IL-$1{\beta}$ was able to promote IL-17 production from $CD4^+$ T cells. Our results showed that although signaling mediated by LPS together with curdlan is a potent stimulator of DC to secrete many pro-inflammatory cytokines, TGF-${\beta}$ production is a limiting factor for promoting Th17 immunity.

Ko, Lim found some differences in the concentrations of bone resorptive cytokines, especially IL-$1{\alpha}$ and IL-$1{\beta}$ in periapical lesions and inflamed pulps. And they suppose that these differences may be due to the type of cells which produce each cytokine. The purpose of this study was to analyze the human odontogenic cysts & cystic fluid for their contents of IL-$1{\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$ and TNF-$1{\alpha}$ and to compare the concentrations of each cytokine according to the cytokine producing cells. The cystic tissues used in this experiment, were obtained from periapical surgery or cyst enucleation surgery. Cystic fluid was obtained from root canal during routine endodontic therapy(n=5). Cystic tissues were subdivided into two groups, inflammatory radicular cyst group(n=15) and developmental odontogenic keratocyst group(n=3). Normal periapical tissues of extracted third molar(n=5) were also obtained to be used as control group. Each specimen was incubated in 0.5ml homogenizing buffer (0.1mol/L potassium chloride, 0.02mol/L TRIS;pH=7.6) for two hours and then homogenized with glass homogenizer. Each specimen was centrifuged in a microcentrifuge for 3 minutes, and supernatants were extracted. The concentrations of cytokines were measured with R&D ELISA kit. The data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test for the differences among the diseases and t test for the correlations among each cytokine. Following results were obtained ; 1. For IL-$1{\alpha}$ and IL-$1{\beta}$, all experimental groups showed significantly higher concentrations of each cytokine than the control group (p<0.05). 2. In radicular cysts, the concentrations of IL-$1{\alpha}$ were higher than IL-$1{\beta}$, but not stastically significant (p>0.05). In odontogenic keratocysts, the concentrations of IL-$1{\alpha}$ were significantly higher than IL-$1{\beta}$ (p<0.05). In cystic fluid, the concentration of IL-$1{\beta}$ was significantly higher than IL-$1{\alpha}$ (p<0.05). 3. Between odontogenic keratocysts and radicular cysts, the concentrations of IL-$1{\alpha}$ were significantly higher in odontogenic keratocysts than in radicular cysts (p<0.05). 4. For TNF-${\alpha}$, only cystic fluid group showed significantly higher concentrations than the control group (p<0.05).

Our previous report showed that polyacetylene compound, 1-Heptadecene-11, 13-diyne-8, 9, 10-triol (PA) from the root of Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriense has anti-inflammatory activity. In this study we investigated the role of the PA as inhibitor of caspase-1, which converts prointerleukin-$1{\beta}$ (proIL-$1{\beta}$) to active IL-$1{\beta}$ and is activated by inflammasome involved in the inflammatory process. We tested the effect of PA on the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-$1{\beta}$ in murine macrophage cell line, RAW264.7. PA inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced IL-$1{\beta}$ production by macrophages at a dose dependent manner. PA also suppressed the activation of caspase-1. The mRNA level of ASC (apoptosis-associated spec-like protein containing a CARD), an important adaptor protein of inflammasome, was decreased in the PA treated group. Therefore our results suggest that the anti-inflammatory effect of PA is due to inhibit the caspase-1 activation.

A large number of factors such as osteotropic hormones, cytokines, or growth factors are related to the bone remodeling which is characterized by the coupling of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and osteoblast-mediated bone formation. Recent investigations have indicated that cytokines such as $interleukin-1{\beta}\;(IL-1{\beta})$ and tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}\;(TNF-{\alpha})$ play a potential role in the bone resorption associated with a variety of pathological conditions such as inflammatory osteolytic disease. Collagen is the most abundant protein of the extracellular matrix of bone, and the participation of collagenase in bone resorption has been widely investigated. In this study, effects of $IL-1{\beta}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ on the release of collagenase from osteoblastic cells were measured. The gelatinase activity was also measured by gel substrate analysis (zymography) after electrophoresis of conditioned media of osteoblastic cell culture. $IL-1{\beta}$ increased the collagenase activity in ROS17/2.8 and HOS cell culture. $TNF-{\alpha}$ also increased the collagenase activity of osteoblastic cells. When two kinds of cytokines were treated simultaneously in the culture of osteoblastic cells, synergistic increase of collagenase activity was seen in ROS17/2.8 cells. $IL-1{\beta}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ significantly increased the collagenase activity after 6 hour treatment in the osteoblastic cell culture, and there was no additional increase according to the culture period. Osteoblastic cells released the gelatinase and molecular weight of this enzyme was measured about 70 KDa as assessed by zymogram. $IL-1{\beta}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ showed increase of the gelatinase activity produced by ROS17/2.8 and HOS cells. Taken together, this study suggested that $IL-1{\beta}$ and $TNF-{\alpha}$ can modulate bone metabolism, at least in part, by increased release of collagenase and gelatinase from osteoblasts.
