Two compounds were isolated from the methanolyzate of the butanol-soluble fraction obtained from the whole plants of Melandrium firmum (Caryophyllaceae) and identified as $3-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranosylmelandrigenin$ methyl ester and $2{\beta},\;21{\beta}-dihydroxy-16,\;23-dioxo-28-norolean-13(18)-ene$.

피부 기저막(basement membrane, BM)이란 표피와 진피 사이에 존재하는 특별한 구조물로 표피와 진피를 단단히 고정시켜 피부 구조를 유지하는 데에 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 노화 및 자외선 노출에 의한 피부 기저막의 구조적 변화와 파괴는 피부 주름 형성과 탄력 저하를 포함하는 피부노화 현상의 요인으로 여겨지고 있다. Laminin-332 (LN-332)는 피부 기저막을 구성하는 주성분으로 피부에서 표피와 진피를 단단히 고정시키는데 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 왕불유행 헥산 분획물(Melandrium firmum hexane fraction, MFHF)이 각질형성세포에서 LN-332 발현에 미치는 효과를 확인하였다. 정량적 real-time PCR (RT-PCR)과 단백질 발현 분석을 통해서 MFHF가 LN-332의 mRNA 발현 및 단백질 발현을 촉진시키는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 MFHF가 어떤 신호전달 경로를 통해 LN-332 발현을 조절하는지 확인하기 위하여 p38 MAPK 억제제인 SB202190과 ERK1/2 억제제인 U0126을 처리한 결과, p38 MAPK 억제제에 의해서 LN-332 발현이 완벽히 억제됨을 확인하였다. 또한, 피부 기저막을 구성하고 있는 콜라겐 타입 VII과 integrin ${\alpha}6$의 mRNA 발현 역시 MFHF에 의해 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 우리는 본 연구를 통해 MFHF가 각질형성세포에 작용하여 피부 기저막을 구성하는 성분들의 생성을 촉진할 수 있는 소재로 작용할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 기저막의 구조적, 기능적 이상에 의해 나타나는 피부노화 현상의 개선을 위해 활용할 수 있을 것이라 제안한다.

Melandrin was isolated from the Melandrium firmum(Caryophyllaceae), its structure was N-(p-hydroxybenzoyl)-5-hydroxyanthranilic acid. Fourteen melandrin derivatives(I-XIV) were synthesized and according to MME calculation by the computer, optimized three dimensional structure of compounds was obtained. The space orientation of compounds was cis-form as a indomethacin.

Objectives: This study is to review the effect of Korean medicinal herbs on treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia induced in rat models, as reported in domestic and foreign journals. Methods: Six electronic databases (EMBASE, PubMed, Oasis, RISS, CENTRAL, and Koreankt) were searched with terms including benign prostatic hyperplasia to identify study reports on treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia impairment with Korean medicinal herbs. After selecting several studies, the analysis focused on items reflected in the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia, such as prostate weight, thickness of the prostate epithelium, and prostate specific antigen. Results: Six studies were reviewed. Testosterone propionate was used as a benign prostatic hyperplasia induction material in all the included studies. Cinnamomum verum (CV), Cynanchum wilfordii (CW), Ponciri fructus (PF), Quisqualis indica (QI), Acorus gramineus (AG), and Melandrium firmum (MF) had reduced prostate weight statistically significantly. The QI gave a better response than finasteride in terms of reducing epithelium thickness, and the response was statistically significant. The prostate specific antigen level was lower in the group treated with CV than in the control group. Conclusions: CV, CW, PF, QI, AG, and MF had distinct therapeutic effects. However it is difficult to determine which of these is better by comparing them numerically because the observation items evaluated in a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Objectives : The present study purposed to compare the effects of Melandrii Herba and Vaccariae Semen, which are used as Wang-Bul-Yu-Haeng(王不留行) with vasodilatory effect in Korea and China, respectively, on hyperlipidemia. Methods : We applied the water extract of Melandrii Herba and Vaccariae Semen to rats with hyperlipidemia induced by high-cholesterol diet and high-fructose diet and evaluated their effects. Results : While Vaccariae Semen had significant effect on the reduction of the levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, free cholesterol, and the activation of ALT, the application of Melandrii Herba had no significant effect on the levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, free cholesterol, neutral fat, and free fatty acid, and the activation of AST. For the rats with hypertriglyceridemia, Vaccariae Semen reduced the levels of neutral fat and total cholesterol, but did not significantly reduce the level of free fatty acid and the activation of AST and ALT. The application of Melandrii Herba did not have any significant effect on the levels of neutral fat, total cholesterol, and free fatty acid, and the activation of AST and ALT, but it increased the level of HDL cholesterol. Conclusion : Vaccariae Semen showed a possibility as a remedy for hyperlipidemia, but Melandrii Herba did not show any significant effect. Thus, based on such a difference in remedial effect between Melandrii Herba and Vaccariae Semen, they need to be distinguished in clinical application.
