Skin wrinkle formations are associated with collagen synthesis and matrix metalloproteinase-I(MMP-1) activity. This study was carried out to find out skin wrinkle reducing components in Torilis Fructus. Torilis Fructus were extracted with 70% ethanol and the ethanol extracts were systematically fractionated with n-hexane, ethylacetate, n-butanol and distilled water. Among them, antiwrinkle component from n-hexane fraction was purified by several column chromatographies and HPLC, which identified as torilin by $^1H-NMR,\;^{13}C-NMR$ and ESI-MS. To determine cell viability, collagen biosynthesis and MMP-1 activity, human dermal fibroblast was treated with 1-5 ppm concentrations of Torilis Fructus extract fraction and torilin. Cell viability was showed 84-102% at all group treated with 1-5 ppm. Collagen synthesis was increased in all group, especially torilin-treated group was highest amount. Active forms of MMP-1 were decreased in all group. From these results, we consider that Torilis Fructus have several antiwrinkle components and torilin may be one of the effective components.

잎새버섯(Grifola frondosa HB0071)이 생산하는 세포외 다당체인 GF-glucan이 사람섬유아세포에서 자외선(UVA)조사 시 증가되는 MMP-1 발현에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 자외선으로부터 조사된 섬유아세포에 GF-glucan을 처리한 농도에 따라 MMP-1 발현이 억제되었으며, RT-PCR를 이용해 세포내 MMP-1 mRNA 발현 또한 감소하는 것으로 나타났다 즉, 최대 GF-glucan $0.5\%$를 처리했을 때 $54.4\%$의 MMP-1 발현을 억제하였다. 결과적으로, 잎새버섯 HB0071로부터 생산된 GF-glucan은 피부노화와 관련된 extracellular matrix (ECM) 조직에 손상을 주는 MMP-1의 활성을 억제하여 자외선으로부터 손상된 피부의 광노화로부터 보호해주는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced loss of dermal extracellular matrix is associated with skin photoaging. Recent studies demonstrated that keratinocyte-releasable stratifin (SFN) plays a critical role in skin collagen metabolism by inducing matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1) expression in target fibroblasts. In the present study, we examined whether SFN released from UVB-irradiated epidermal keratinocytes increases MMP1 release from dermal fibroblasts, and whether these events are affected by p-coumaric acid (p-CA), a natural phenolic compound with UVB-shielding and antioxidant properties. HaCaT cells were exposed to UVB in the absence and presence of p-CA, and the conditioned medium was used to stimulate fibroblasts in medium transfer experiments. The cells and media were analyzed to determine the expressions/releases of SFN and MMP1. UVB exposure increased SFN release from keratinocytes into the medium. The conditioned medium of UVB-irradiated keratinocytes increased MMP1 release from fibroblasts. The depletion of SFN using a siRNA rendered the conditioned medium of UVB-irradiated keratinocytes ineffective at stimulating fibroblasts to release MMP1. p-CA mitigated UVB-induced SFN expression in keratinocytes, and attenuated the MMP1 release by fibroblasts in medium transfer experiments. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that the use of UV absorbers such as p-CA would reduce UV-induced SFN-centered signaling events involved in skin photoaging.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors attenuate neuroinflammation in an ischemic brain following photothrombotic cortical ischemia in mice. Male C57BL/6 mice were anesthetized, and Rose Bengal was systemically administered. Permanent focal ischemia was induced in the medial frontal and somatosensory cortices by irradiating the skull with cold white light. MMP inhibitors, such as doxycycline, minocycline, and batimastat, significantly reduced the cerebral infarct size, and the expressions of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). However, they had no effect on the expressions of heme oxygenase-1 and neuroglobin in the ischemic cortex. These results suggest that MMP inhibitors attenuate ischemic brain injury by decreasing the expression levels of MCP-1, TNF-${\alpha}$, and IDO, thereby providing a therapeutic benefit against cerebral ischemia.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the normal morphogenesis, maintenance, and repair of matrix and also have important functions in pathologic conditions characterized by excessive degradation of extracellular matrix, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, periodontitis and in tumor invasion and metastasis. In this study, expression of MMP-1 and -2 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) was examined and compared with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and surgical findings. MMP mRNAs in the retrodiscal tissue samples were detected by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction. TMJ internal derangement (ID) was categorized as normal disc position, disc displacement with reduction, early stage of disc displacement without reduction (DDsR) and late stage of DDsR. TMJ osteoarthrosis (OA) was classified with normal, mild and advanced OA. The amount of synovial fluid collection was divided into not detected, small, large and extremely large amount on MR T2-weighted imaging. Perforation and adhesion were examined during open surgery of the TMJ. Six out of 37 samples were excluded because of little amount of extracted total mRNA. MMP-2 mRNA was detected whole joints, and so the MMP-2 mRNA seems to be expressed normally in retrodiscal tissue. However, MMP-1 mRNA was expressed in 8 of 31 joints. Frequencies of MMP-1 mRNA expression according to the TMJ IDs, amount of synovial fluid and surgical findings made no significant difference. MMP-1 mRNA was detected more frequently in OA groups (7/16 joints, 43.8%) than in normal bony structure group (1/15 joints, 6.7%). Expression of MMP-1 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue might be related with OA of the TMJ.

Fucoidan은 갈조류의 세포벽에 존재하는 황산화 다당류이다. 본 연구에서는 자외선 B를 인체각질형성세포에 조사하여 matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1)을 발현 시킨 후 Fucus evanescens fucoidan이 MMP-1 promoter, mRNA, 단백 발현과 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs)의 인산화에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 자외선 B에 의해 생성된 MMP-1의 promoter activity와 mRNA, 단백 발현은 fucoidan $10\;{\mu}g/ml$와 $100\;{\mu}g/ml$를 투여하였을 때 fucoidan을 투여하지 않고 자외선만 조사한 군에 비하여 유의하게 억제되었다. 그리고 F. evanescens fucoidan은 extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK)의 활성은 현저히 억제시켰으나 c-JUN N-terminal kinase (JNK)와 p38의 활성에 미치는 영향은 약하였다. 따라서 이 연구결과들은 F. evanescens fucoidan이 피부 광노화의 예방과 치료에 도움이 될 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 낙타유를 유효성분으로 하여 리포좀을 제조하였고, 이를 이용하여 항노화 효능을 갖는 화장품 원료를 개발하고자 다양한 실험을 실시하였다. 제조된 낙타유 리포좀은 피부 섬유아세포에서 collagen과 hyaluronan synthase-3 (HAS-3)의 발현을 증가시키고 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1의 발현을 감소시킬 뿐 아니라 elastase의 활성을 억제하여 주름 개선 기능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 자외선으로부터 손상된 세포를 재생시키는 효과를 확인하였다. 이에 따라 낙타유를 함유한 리포좀은 항노화 소재로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

서해안에 서식하는 해양생물인 전복은 항산화 및 항염증 효과가 있으며, 항생제 개발 및 화장품 원료 등 다양한 산업에 활용될 수 있는 잠재력을 가진 자원이다. 본 연구에서 우리는 서해안의 다양한 해양 생물 중에서 전복을 선택하였으며, 전복에서 분리한 항균펩타이드(AMP)를 이용하여 항균펩타이드 유도체인 Ab4-7를 규명하고 생리활성을 연구하였다. Ab4-7의 항염증 효능을 확인하기 위해 염증이 유도된 RAW 264.7에 Ab4-7을 처리한 결과, 염증성 사이토카인, TLR4, TNF-α, IL-1β, COX-2, iNOS 등을 억제하고 항산화와 관련된 유전인자인 HO-1의 mRNA 발현을 증가시켰다. Ab4-7의 강력한 항산화 및 항염증 효과를 바탕으로, 염증이 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포에서 Ab4-7이 extrocellular matrix metalloproteinase (ECM) 분해에 관여하여 다양한 염증성 피부질환을 유도하는 유전자인 matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs)를 조절하는 효과를 RT-PCR을 통해 확인하였다. Ab4-7은 강력한 항염증 및 항산화 효과를 가지고 있으며, 항염증 및 항산화 효과를 통한 MMPs 관련 유전인자 조절을 통해 다양한 염증성 피부질환 치료제의 기능성 재료로 활용될 수 있다고 사료된다.
