음나무 (Kalopanax pictus, 이하 KP)의 추출물과 ascorbic acid(AA)의 DPPH와 ABTS 라디칼, FRAP 및 NO 소거능 상승효과를 조사하였다. 라디칼 소거능과 항산화능은 농도에 비례하여 증가하였으며, AA 첨가에 의해서 그 활성이 향상되었다. 인간 간암세포주에 대한 KP추출물+AA의 항암능은 MTT법에서 우수한 효과를 나타내었으며 세포 사멸을 유도하였다. 또한 KP 추출물+AA는 세포주기의 G0/G1-phase 또는 G2/M-phase에 영향을 미쳤으며, 농도 의존적인 효과를 나타내었다. 그리고 KP추출물+AA는 대식세포주를 이용한 NO생성과 억제의 면역활성 영향을 나타내었다. 결론적으로 KP추출물의 항산화, 항암 및 면역조절 효과는 KP추출물 단독으로 처리할 때보다, KP 추출물과 AA를 동시에 처리한 경우가 더욱 효과적이었다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fermented Kalopanax pictus (KP-F) on macrophage activation and its effect as a competitive inhibitor of LPS and inhibitory effect on endotoxemia. The results showed that KP-F could activate macrophage in a dose-dependent manner, and KP-F was confirmed to act as a ligand for TLR4. Also, it was found that KP-F did not exhibit the same biotoxicity as LPS in intraperitoneal injection, and that it could suppress the neutrophil migration induced by LPS administration. In normal mice, the body weight, tissue weight, and amount of nitrite and pro-inflammatory cytokines in serum showed no significant changes with KP-F diet for 2 weeks, confirming that administration of KP-F in normal mice did not lead to over activation of immune response and biotoxicity. In the mouse model of endotoxemia induced by LPS and D-galactosamine(D-GalN) in sub-lethal dose, the diet of KP-F effectively inhibited the amount of nitrite and cytokines in the blood, and thus was found to be able to relieve the hepatic and kidney injury. In addition, in the endotoxemia mouse model induced by LPS and D-GalN of lethal dose, the survival rate was increased by KP-F diet in a dose-dependent manner.

Backgroud: The stem bark of Kalopanax pictus (KP) has been used in traditional medicine to treat rheumatoidal arthritis, neurotic pain and diabetes mellitus in China and Korea. In this study, the mechanism responsible for anti-inflammatory effects of KP was investigated. Methods: We examined the effects of KP on NO production, nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and HO-1 expression, NF-${\kappa}B$, Nrf2 and MAPK activation in mouse peritoneal macrophages. Results: The aqueous extract of KP inhibited LPS-induced NO secretion as well as inducible iNOS expression, without affecting cell viability. KP suppressed LPS-induced NF-${\kappa}B$ activation, phosphorylation and degradation of $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$, phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Furthermore, KP induced HO-1 expression and Nrf2 nuclear translocation. Conclusion: These results suggest that KP has the inhibitory effects on LPS-induced NO production in macrophages through NF-${\kappa}B$ suppression and HO-1 induction.

본 연구는 신경퇴행성질환과 밀접한 관련이 있는 neurofilament-L(NF-L)의 산화적 손상에 엄나무 발효물이 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 용액 상에서 peroxyl radical을 생성하는 AAPH를 처리하여 NFL의 산화적 변형을 유도하고 엄나무 추출물(KP), 노루궁뎅이버섯 균사체 추출물(HE), 엄나무 발효물(KP-HE)을 각각 처리하여 어떤 영향을 미치는 지를 알아보고자 하였다. KP와 HE는 peroxyl radical에 의한 NF-L의 산화적 손상을 막지 못했으나 KP-HE는 NF-L의 변형을 효과적으로 억제하였다. KP-HE는 peroxyl radical에 의한 NF-L 변형에서 나타나는 dityrosine 형성을 효과적으로 억제하였고 peroxyl radical 소거활성도 증가시켰다. 파킨슨병 환자에서 발견되는 신경독성물질인 tetrahydropapaveroline(THP)에 의한 NFL의 변형에 KP, HE, KP-HE가 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 그 결과 KP-HE는 KP와 HE에 비해서 THP에 의한 NF-L의 변형을 효과적으로 억제하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 KP-HE는 THP에 의한 NF-L 변형에서 나타나는 dityrosine 형성도 효과적으로 억제하였고 THP에 의해 유도되는 활성산소 생성도 현저히 감소시켰다. 이와 같은 결과들은 KP-HE가 활성산소와 신경독성물질에 의한 산화적 스트레스로부터 세포를 보호해 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다. 그러므로 엄나무 발효물은 신경퇴행성질환을 예방할 수 있는 식품소재로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The aim of this study was to select compounds for the standardization of fermented Kalopanax pictus Nakai (KP-F), to develop the analysis method using HPLC-PDA and to perform method validation. KP-F is a fermented powder developed to improve the original physiological activities and create a new functionality. Eleutheroside E, Acanthoside B, and Syringaresinol were selected as the standard compounds and developed our own method for simultaneous analysis. The analyte was isolated using C18 column with a gradient elution of 0.05 M phosphoric acid in water and methanol as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and detected at 210 nm. As a result, all standard compounds showed good linearity with an $R^2$ (coefficient of correlation) of 1.000 and for the limit of detection range of $0.710{\sim}0.831{\mu}g/mL$, and the limit of quantification as $2.150{\sim}2.520{\mu}g/mL$. The precision was RSD (%) of less than 4.80%, while the accuracy was 4.70%>RSD (%) for the range 102.44~110.48%. In conclusion, the developed analysis method is suitable for the detection of Eleutheroside E, Acanthoside B, and Syringaresinol in KP-F.

The stem-bark of Kalopanax pictus (KP, family Araliaceae), of which main constituent is kalopanaxsaponin B, has been used for asthma, rhinitis, and arthritis in Chinese traditional medicine. To clarify anticolitic effect of KP, we examined anti-inflammatory effect of KP extract and kalopanaxsaponin B in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated peritoneal macrophage and 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitic mice. Of KP extracts, KP BuOH-soluble fraction most potently inhibited LPS-induced IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ expression, as well as NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. However, KP BuOH fraction increased IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine. KP BuOH fraction also inhibited colon shortening and myeloperoxidase activity in TNBS-induced colitic mice. KP BuOH fraction also potently inhibited the expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, and TNF-${\alpha}$ as well as the activation of NF-${\kappa}B$. Kalopanaxsaponin B, a main constituent of KP, inhibited TNBS-induced colonic inflammation, including colon shortening, and TNBS-increased myeloperoxidase activity pro-inflammatory cytokine expression and NF-${\kappa}B$ activation in mice. Based on these findings, KP, particularly its main constituent, kalopanaxsaponin B, may ameliorate colitis by inhibiting NF-${\kappa}B$ pathway.

The leaves (KPL) of Kalopanax pictus (KP) are used as a vegetable or a functional food in Korean society. The stem bark (Kalopanacis Cortex, KPS) has been traditionally used to treat neurotic pain, rheumatoid arthritis and diabetic disease. This research was undertaken to demonstrate that the leaf extract of KP (KPL) has also the antinociceptive and antiinflammatory effects like the extract (KPS) of Kalopanacis Cortex and to compare the activity levels of several extracts obtained from KP. Antinociceptive and antiinflammatory effects were measured against the extracts described as followings; KPL-1 (the MeOH extract obtained from the leaf shoot of KP collected on May), KPL-2 (the MeOH extract from KP collected on June), KPL-3 (the MeOH ectract from KP with no thorns), KPS-1 (MeOH extract from KPS of a Korean habitat), KPS-2 (MeOH extract from KPS of a Chinese habitat). The antimociceptive test undertaken by acetic acid-induced writhing, hot plate-, and tail-flick methods using mice. The anti-inflammatory test was also undertaken by measuring the edema in the carrageenan-induced test. The order of activity potency in the antinociceptive and antiinflammatory assays was commonly shown as followings: KPL-3>KPS>1>KPS-2>KPL-1>KPL-2. This order was also observed in acetic acid-induced vascular permeability test. The antiinflammatory activity in carrageenan-induced assay was also observed as the following order: KPL-3>KPS- 1>PS-2>KPL-1>KPL-2. In addition, adjuvant-induced rats were used for a model to assess the oxidative stress. Treatment of the rat with the extracts reduced serum thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), hydroxy radical(OH) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity caused by FCA together together with the inhibition of hepatic TBARS level and lipofuscin content. The above finding suggests that the leaf extract has the antinociceptive and antinflammatory activity. It is also suggested that KPL-3 with more potent activity than other tested extracts could be developed for a new available biomaterial.

본 연구는 노루궁뎅이버섯 균사체로 발효시킨 엄나무 추출물의 항산화 및 항아밀로이드 활성을 알아보고자 하였다. 항산화 활성은 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)(ABTS) radical 소거 측정법을 사용하여 관찰하였다. 엄나무추출물(KP), 노루궁뎅이버섯 균사체 추출물(HE), 엄나무 발효물(KP-HE)에서 모두 라디칼 소거활성이 관찰되었다. 그러나 KP-HE가 KP와 HE에 비해서 더 높은 소거 활성을 갖는 것으로 관찰되었다. KP-HE는 peroxyl radical에 의한 DNA의 산화적 손상을 억제하였다. 알츠하이머병 (Alzheimer's disease: AD)과 관련 있는 $A{\beta}_{1-42}$의 응집에 KP, HE, KP-HE가 어떤 영향을 미치는 지를 알아보았다. KP와 HE는 $A{\beta}_{1-42}$의 응집에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았고 KP-HE는 $A{\beta}_{1-42}$의 응집을 효과적으로 억제하였다. 또한 $A{\beta}_{1-42}$에 의한 신경세포 사멸에 엄나무 발효물을 $300{\mu}g/mL$ 농도로 전 처리한 세포생존율은 20.3% 높게 증가되었다. 또한 엄나무 발효물을 $50{\mu}g/mL$ 농도로 처리했을 경우 세포 내 ROS의 축적이 유의적으로 감소되었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 관찰된 결과들을 통해 엄나무 발효물은 항산화 및 항아밀로이드 활성을 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 엄나무 발효물은 알츠하이머병과 같은 퇴행성 뇌질환을 예방할 수 있는 식품소재로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
