The physicochemical characteristics and biological activities, including antioxidant activity, antimutagenicity, and cytotoxicity of hot-water extract of fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus, were investigated in this study. Hot-water extract of fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus contained carbohydrate (7.86%), protein (10.91%), and ${\beta}$-glucan (3.62%). Water solubility of hot-water extract was 42.58%. Antioxidant activities of the extract were evaluated by ABTS assay and FRAP assay. The $IC_{50}$ value was 312.21 ${\mu}g/mL$ in ABTS assay. Antimutagenic activity of the extract was evaluated by Ames test. Antimutagenicity of hot-water extract (5 mg/mL) on Salmonella Typhimurium TA100 mutagenated by sodium azide (0.15 ${\mu}g/mg$) was 69.2%. Cytotoxicity of hot-water extract was also evaluated by MTT and SRB assay. The cytotoxicity was highest (83.95%) on Hep3B treated with 2,000 ${\mu}g/mL$ of hot-water extract in SRB assay. Therefore, it is suggested that hot-water extract of fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus has high antioxidant activity, antimutagenicity, and cytotoxicity.

In this study, antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of the extracts from pericarp and seed of $Vitis$ $coignetiea$, which were extracted with 0.1% HCl-60% ethanol, were analyzed. The antibacterial activity of the extracts was determined by paper disc diffusion method against food spoilage and food-borne pathogens. The pericarp extract showed high antibacterial activity against $Bacillus$ $cereus$, $Escherichia$ $coli$ O157:H7, and $Pseudomonas$ $aeruginosa$, and the seed extract represented the high antibacterial activity against $B.$ $cereus$, $E.$ $coli$ O157:H7, and $Staphylococcus$ $aureus$. The cytotoxicity of the $Vitis$ $coignetiea$ extract against human cancer cells was determined using the MTT assay and SRB assay. The pericarp extract represented strong growth-inhibition activity against G361 and Hep3B cells and the seed extract greatly inhibited the growth of HeLa and G361 cells in the MTT assay. In addition, the pericarp extract displayed a high inhibition activity against the growth of AGS cells and the seed extract greatly inhibited the growth of HeLa, Hep3B, and MCF7 cells in the SRB assay. Especially, the cytotoxicities of the seed extract against HeLa were significantly higher than those of the extract against other cancer cells at all test concentrations. This study demonstrates that the extract from pericarp and seed of $Vitis$ $coignetiea$ possess high antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity.

Artemisia capillaris THUNB is a perennial herb that belongs to the family Compositae spp and the most common plant among the various herbal folk remedies used in treatment of abdominal pain, hepatitis, chronic liver disease, jaundice and coughing in Korea. This experiment was conducted to investigate cytotoxic effects of Artemisia capillaris extracts on the Hepa-1c1c7 and Sarcoma 180 cancer cells on in vitro experimental tests. On in vitro tests using MTT assay and SRB assay, the extracts showed prominent cytotoxic effects on the two kinds of cancer cell lines, respectively. Antihumor effects appeared in the concentration of over $250{\mu}g/mL$ of both ethanol and ethyl acetate extract, over $500{\mu}g/mL$ of methanol extract, over $5000{\mu}g/mL$ in water extract and over 50% cytotoxicity on the Hepa-1c1c7 and Sarcoma 180. The results suggest that Artemisia capillaris extracts have prominent cyotoxic effects on the cancer cell lines Hepa-1c1c7 and Sarcoma 180.

The purpose of this study were to determined the effect of laser irradiation on the fibroblast activity. Cultures of 3T3 fibroblasts were subjected to Helium Neon laser(632.8 nm) irradiation of various energy density. On one, two and three consecutive days the fibroblast monolayers wert irradiated for period from 0 to 32 minutes with 8 mW of average output power. The fibroblast activity was determined by the quantitative assay of MTT, SRB and NR after incubation of the fibroblasts for 24 hours. Results show that exposure duration from 2 min to 32 min could increase MTT at three consecutive days, whereas control and 1 min, one and two days irradiation had were not inclosed. The SRB and NR were inclosed at two and three consecutive days from 2 min to 32 min, whereas control and 1 min, and once radiation were not increased. These result demonstrate that energy density from 0.48 to 7.64 J/cm could increase cellular protein contents and fibroblast activity at more than twice irradiation of laser, whereas low energy density (less than 0.24 J/m) and once irradiation of laser had no effect. The results suggest that the beneficial effect of the He-Ne laser with adequate dose on fibroblast activity in vitro.

We have focused on various biological activities of acharan sulfate (AS) isolated from the giant African snail Achatina fulica. In a previous study, AS showed antiangiogenic and immunomodulating activity. We also investigated antitumor activity of AS. In vitro AS had no cytotoxicity within 0 to 200 ug/ml in tumor cells such as Lewis lung carcinoma(LLC) , KM1214 (human colon cancer cell) and Caki-1 (human kidney cancer cell) by both MTT and SRB assay. In vivo AS was used to treat C57BL/6 mice bearing LLC by subscutaneous injection. (omitted)

소목은 인도, 말레이시아, 중국 남부 등의 열대 아시아에 분포하는 낙엽 관목의 콩과 식물로써, 한방에서는 항통증, 항염증의 용도로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 국내산 소목의 열수 및 에탄올 추출물의 총 폴레페놀, 총 플라보노이드의 함량 분석과 함께 항산화 및 항암활성 분석을 통해 기능성 소재로의 이용가능성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 소목 열수 추출물은 건소목 100 g에 증류수 2L를 가하여 $65^{\circ}C$의 수조에서 4시간 동안 추출하고 에탄올 추출물은 건소목 100 g에 70% 에탄올 2L를 가하여 $25^{\circ}C$, 108 rpm으로 24시간 동안 진탕 추출하였다. 추출물은 모두 여과, 농축한 후 동결 건조하여 시료로 사용되었다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 열수 추출물 및 에탄올 추출물에서 각각 22.6 mg GAE/g과 17.6 mg GAE/g으로 나타났으며 총 플라보노이드 함량은 14.5 mg QE/g, 13.2 mg QE/g으로 에탄올 추출물에서 더 높은 함량을 보였다(p<0.05). DPPH 실험결과, 10-800 ug/mL의 농도에서 에탄올 추출물은 36.5-82.8%, 열수 추출물은 26.7-75.5%의 radical 소거능을 각각 나타내었다. DPPH실험과 동일한 농도에서 ABTS radical 소거능 측정 결과, 에탄올 추출물은 5.5-94.9%, 열수 추출물은 5.8-88.8%의 소거능을 각각 나타내었는데, 결과적으로 소목 에탄올 추출물이 열수 추출물에 비해 우수한 항산화력을 가지고 있음을 보여주었다(p<0.05). 소목의 항암 활성 측정을 위해 인체 암세포주인 A-549, HeLa, Hep3B cell에 대해 MTT assay와 SRB assay를 실시한 결과, 소목 에탄올 추출물의 농도가 증가함에 따라 각 세포주에 대한 세포 독성이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. MTT assay와 SRB assay의 모든 실험농도에서 폐암 세포인 A-549에 대해 가장 높은 세포 독성을 나타내었으며, 특히 MTT assay에서는 300 ug/mL의 소목 에탄올 추출물이 A-549 cell에 대해 90% 이상의 높은 암세포 억제효과를 보여주었다. 따라서, 우수한 항산화 활성과 항암 활성을 나타낸 소목 추출물은 향후 다양한 기능성 식품 및 의약 소재로서의 활용이 가능할 것으로 보인다.
