본 연구는 노니(Morinda citrifolia)에 함유된 주요 생리활성물질이 RAW 264.7 세포에서 JAK/STAT 신호전달 경로를 통하여 항염증 작용에 관여하는 것을 조사하였다. 건조된 M. citrifolia 열매의 MeOH 추출에 의한 유기용매의 순차 분획에서 얻은 EtOAc 분획물(Mc-EtOAc)에서 가장 높은 항산화 활성을 확인하였고, H₂O₂로 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포의 산화적 스트레스에 대한 세포보호 효과는 처리 농도의존적으로 세포독성을 차단하였다. LPS 처리로 71.6%의 RAW 264.7 세포 생존율에서 240 ㎍/ml의 Mc-EtOAc를 전처리한 군에서 84.5%의 세포 생존율 증가를 보였다. LPS로 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포의 NO 생성 저해활성은 240 ㎍/ml의 Mc-EtOAc에서 양성 대조군의 절반 수준으로 NO의 생성양을 감소시켰다. Mc-EtOAc 처리로 iNOS의 발현량은 농도의존적으로 유의하게 감소하였고, COX-2의 발현은 LPS 유도로 3배 정도로 증가되었으나, 120, 240 ㎍/ml의 Mc-EtOAc를 전처리시 농도의존적으로 유의하게 감소시켰다. 또한 pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β와 TNF-α의 mRNA 발현도 억제하였다. 이러한 Mc-EtOAc의 항염증 작용이 상위 신호전달 경로인 JAK/STAT 신호전달 경로 통해 일어나지를 조사한 결과, Mc-EtOAc의 전처리로 LPS로 유도된 RAW 264.7 세포에서 pJAK1과 pSTAT3의 인산화 정도가 유의성 있게 감소하였다. 따라서 RAW 264.7 세포에서 Mc-EtOAc의 항염증 효과는 JAK1/STAT3 신호전달 경로를 통해 염증반응을 억제하는 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives : RVC has long been used for a useful natural agent ameliorating inflammation related symptoms in the folk medicine recipe. This study was performed to investigate effects of RVC on the inflammation and oxidation in RAW 264.7 cells. Methods : The RVC was extracted with 80% ethanol and sequentially partitioned with solvents in order to increase polarity. With the various fractions, we determined the activities on the inflammation and oxidation in RAW 264.7 cells. Results : 1. Among the various solvent extracts of RVC, the butanol fraction showed the most powerful inhibitory ability against nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells without affecting cell viability. 2. Butanol fraction showed a oxidation inhibition effect by decreasing the DPPH and OH radicals. 3. Butanol fraction exhibited the inhibitory avilities against iNOS and COX-2. 4. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Westem blotting analysis revealed that the BuOH fraction provided a primary inhibitor of the iNOS protein and mRNA expression in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Among the up-regulater molecules of iNOS and COX-2, the BuOh fraction of RVC was shown the inhibitory activity of phoshporylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1/2 and threonine protein kinase (AKT), the one of the MAPKs pathway. Conclusion : Thus, the present study suggests that the response of a component of the BuOH fraction to NO generation via iNOS expression provide a important clue to elucidate anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation mechanism of RVC.

The oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein(LDL) has been implicated in the development of atherosclerosis. Oxidized LDL are found in macrophage foam cell, and it can induce an macrophage proliferation in atherosclerotic plaque. In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that gamisoyosan(GS) may reduce atherosclerosis by lowering the oxidiazability of LDL, To achive this goal, we examined the effect of GS on LDL oxidation, nitric oxide production in mouse macrophage cell line, RAW264.7, and the effect of GS on cupuric sulfate-induced cytotoxicity, LDH release, and macrophage activity. GS inhibited the generation of oxidized LDL from native LDL in RAW264.7 cell culture, and decreased the release of LDH from cupric sulfate-stimulated RAW264.7 cell. In other experiments, GS activated RAW264.7 cell, and prolonged the survival time, and increased nitric oxide production in Raw 264.7 cells.

본 연구의 목적은 LPS로 자극된 RAW264.7 대식세포에서 Sapindus mukorossi 열매 추출물(SME)의 항산화 효능을 확인하는 것이다. 그 결과, SME가 LPS로 자극된 RAW264.7 세포에서 ROS 생성을 현저하게 감소시켰고 전염증성 단백질인 COX-2 및 iNOS의 발현을 억제하였다. 또한 SME는 HO-1 및 Nrf2 발현을 상향 조절하였고 Akt 및 GSK-3β의 인산화를 증가시켰다. 이러한 결과는 SME가 Nrf2/HO-1 신호전달 경로의 활성화를 통하여 산화적 스트레스를 완화시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.

Objectives This study was designed to investigate whether the Cheongajihwang-Tang (CT) has an inhibitory effect association with oxidation or inflammation in RAW264.7 cells. Methods Cytotoxic activity of CT extract on RAW264.7 cells was evaluated by using 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) solution. Nitric oxide production was measured using Griess reagent system. The total phenolic contents and 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity was measured to evaluate the anti-oxidative effects of CT. Dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA) has been used as a substrate for measuring intracellular oxidant production. Results Cheongajihwang-Tang does not impair the cell viability in tested concentration. CT showed anti-oxidative effects in vitro by decreasing electron donating ability, and also showed anti-inflammatory effects suppressing NO and ROS expression in LPS induced RAW264.7 activation. CT inhibited the generation of intracellular ROS production as dose dependant manner. Conclusions CT has anti-oxidative effects and anti-inflammatory activities. These results indicate that CT extract has an anti-inflammatory activities via anti-oxidative effects.

We investigated production levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-αand interleukin (IL)-6, and nitric oxide(NO) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. NO production in RAW 264.7 cells was measured by using Griess reagent. Cytokines including IL-6 and TNF-αwere measured by Luminex and ROS was measured by Flow cytometry.Results : No cytotoxicity of various extracts of Yeonsan Ogye was observed in RAW 264.7 cells. Productions of ROS in RAW 264.7 cells were increased from extraction of bones and decreased from extraction of skin. Also, productions of NO in RAW 264.7 cells were increased to bone extract and decreased at skin extract. In addition, productions of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells were decreased at skin, meat extracts, respectively. Finally, the levels of immune-related cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α) were increased compared to those of the normal group.Conclusions : It is concluded that Yeonsan Ogye extracts seem to have significant biological activities likes anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immuno-enhancing etc. These results may be developed as a raw material for new health food and new therapeutics to ease the symptoms related with inflammatory and oxidative stress. In terms of oriental traditional medicine, we expect that it contribute to building of EBM (Evidence-Based Medicine) from the this result.

본 연구는 대식세포에서 LPS를 이용하여 염증 유사 세포 모델을 만들고 염증 유사 대식세포 모델에서 성체줄기세포의 면역 조절 능력을 평가하였다. LPS 자극에 의해 증가된 IL-1β, TNF-α 및 IL-10의 생성은 성체줄기세포를 공배양한 실험군 뿐만 아니라 성체줄기세포를 배양한 상층 배양액을 처리한 실험군에서도 동일한 효과를 나타내었으며, 또한 성체줄기세포 유래 엑소좀을 염증 유사 대식세포 모델에 처리하여 유사한 결과를 관찰하였다. 이 결과는 성체줄기세포 자체의 염증 억제 기능보다는 성체줄기세포 유래 엑소좀을 포함하여 성체줄기세포가 분비하는 bioactive molecules에 의해 세포 간 신호 전달이 이루어지고 있음을 의미하며, 이러한 엑소좀은 염증 관련 질환 분야에 치료적 적용이 가능하고 또한 새로운 염증 치료제 개발의 툴로 사용될 수 있음을 시사한다.
