방사선조사를 이용하여 돈피유래 올리고펩타이드를 제조하고자 하였다. 생박돈피를 chopper를 이용하여 조분쇄한 후 $-20^{\circ}C$ 아세톤으로 탈지하였고, $\gamma$-ray irradiator를 이용하여 0, 20, 40, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 kGy의 총 흡수선량을 얻도록 탈지돈피에 방사선조사를 하였다. 탈지돈피의 pH는 150 kGy이상에서 소폭 증가하였고, SDS-PAGE에서 방사선조사선량이 증가할수록 분자량 24 kDa이하의 저분자 물질이 점차 증가하였고, 효소처리를 병행했을 때 $\alpha$- 및 $\beta$-나선구조의 100 kDa 및 200 kDa의 콜라겐 밴드가 소실되는 반면에 24 kDa의 밴드가 형성되고 있으며, 방사선 조사선량이 증가할수록 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel 하단에 콜라겐 분해 물질로 예상되는 저분자 물질이 축적되는 현상을 보였다. 방사선조사선량에 따른 수용성 단백질의 용해도, 점도 및 탁도를 측정한 결과 방사선조사선량이 증가할수록 용해도가 증가하고 점도 및 탁도가 감소하는 현상을 보였고, 방사선을 조사한 돈피에 papain 1%를 첨가하여 수용성 단백질을 추출한 경우 비 효소처리구에 비하여 점도가 낮아지는 현상을 보여 돈피 단백질이 papain에 일정수준 가수분해되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 300 kGy로 방사선을 조사한 돈피 가수분해물을 gel permeation chromatography한 결과 분자량 9,000, 2100, 860, 170 Da의 분획물을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과는 환경오염 문제를 최소화하고 제조공정을 단순화하여 경제성 있는 콜라겐 유래 기능성 올리고펩타이드를 제조함에 있어 방사선조사기술(RT: Radiation Technology)이 고분자물질의 저분자화에 직접 이용될 수 있는 기술로 실용화되어 환경오염을 최소화할 수 있는 대체기술로 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

Several coumarins isolated from Angelica sp. were described to show inhibitory effects against human platelet aggregation. The anti-thrombotic and anti-platelet potential was evaluated, in this paper, with the BuOH soluble fraction of Angelica dahurica root. The BuOH fraction was divided into five subfractions fr. A - E and tested in the mouse model of thrombosis. Survival was enhanced to 35% with fr. A or fr. E treated (500 mg/Kg, p.o.) group of mice compared with 5% survival of the control group. However, none of the 8 coumarin glycosides obtained from fr. A, at the conc. of 0.5 mg/ml, showed inhibitory effects against rat platelet aggregation induced by ADP or collagen.

To develop a whitening agent, cytotoxicity of the soluble collagen isolated from Todarodes pacificus (CIT) was evaluated. CIT tested for cytotoxicity on human dermal fibroblast (CCD-986sk) was exhibited very low cytotoxicity. Because tyrosinase is the key enzyme for melanin biosynthesis, the use of various tyrosinase inhibitors is a common practice for whitening purpose in cosmetics. Tyrosinase inhibitory activity and melanin production assay were measured to confirm the whitening effect. The inhibitory effect of MMP-1 in UV-irradiated human dermal fibroblast was also performed. CIT showed strong inhibition potency on tyrosinase by 51.5% at 0.2 mg/mL which increased the inhibition by increasing the concentration of CIT, and showed 69.1% inhibition at 1.0 mg/mL. CIT showed strong inhibition effect on melanin production with 82% at 1.0 mg/mL. The CIT also reduced about 76% expression of MMP-1 in UV-irradiated CCD-986sk cell at 1.0 mg/mL. From the preliminary observations, we suggest that the collagen isolated from CIT could be a potential source of natural skin-whitening and anti-aging agents for the photo-damaged skin.

This study examined the effects of calcium (Ca) gluconate on collagen-induced DBA mouse rheumatoid arthritis (CIA). A single daily dose of 200, 100 or 50 mg/kg Ca gluconate was administered orally to male DBA/1J mice for 40 days after initial collagen immunization. To ascertain the effects administering the collagen booster, CIA-related features (including body weight, poly-arthritis, knee and paw thickness, and paw weight increase) were measured from histopathological changes in the spleen, left popliteal lymph node, third digit and the knee joint regions. CIA-related bone and cartilage damage improved significantly in the Ca gluconate-administered CIA mice. Additionally, myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels in the paw were reduced in Ca gluconate-treated CIA mice compared to CIA control groups. The level of malondialdehyde (MDA), an indicator of oxidative stress, decreased in a dose-dependent manner in the Ca gluconate group. Finally, the production of IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$, involved in rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis, were suppressed by treatment with Ca gluconate. Taken together, these results suggest that Ca gluconate is a promising candidate anti-rheumatoid arthritis agent, exerting anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and immunomodulatory effects in CIA mice.

Asterias pectinifera, a species of starfish and cause of concern in the aquaculture industry, was recently identified as a source of non-toxic and highly water-soluble collagen peptides. In this study, we investigated the antioxidant and anti-photoaging functions of compounds formulated using collagen peptides from extracts of Asterias pectinifera and Halocynthia roretzi (AH). Our results showed that AH compounds have various skin protective functions, including antioxidant effects, determined by measuring the scavenging activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals, as well as anti-melanogenic effects, determined by measuring tyrosinase inhibition activity. To determine whether ethosome-encapsulated AH compounds (E(AH)) exert ultraviolet (UV)-protective effects, human dermal fibroblasts or keratinocytes were incubated with E(AH) before and after exposure to UVA or UVB. E(AH) treatment led to inhibition of photoaging-induced secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and interleukin-6 and -8, which are associated with inflammatory responses during UV irradiation. Finally, the antibacterial effects of AH and E(AH) were confirmed against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Our results indicate that E(AH) has the potential for use in the development of cosmetics with a range of skin protective functions.

Object : This study was performed to investigate the anti-fibrogenic effect of Artemisiae Capillaris Herba(ACH) on cultured rat hepatic stellate cells. Methods : Hepatic Stellate Cells were obtained from a 350gm Sprague-Dawley rat by tissue perfusion system, and the cells for the study were selected after 3 passages of culture on non-coated plastic culture dishes which enable the cells to activate, thus producing collagens in the cell media. Cells were treated with various concentrations of Artemisia Capillaris Herba(ACH) extract powder for 24 or 48 hours. After the treatment, Soluble collagen, procollagen levels and the mRNA of the procollagen type I C were measured by using assay kit and RT-PCR method. Results : Procollagen production by the hepatic stellate cells decreased after the treatment in a time-dependent dose-dependent manner. The mRNA expression decreased consistently with the volume of the secreted procollagen which indicates the herb hat inhibitory effect on fibrogenesis of the liver by regulating one of the fibrosis associated genes in transcription. Conclusion : These results suggest that ACH is beneficial in the treatment of cirrhotic patients as well as for the patients with chronic hepatitis.

A fibrin adhesive have been widely used in oral and maxillofacial surgery for microvascular anastomosis, autogenous chip bone grafts, many kinds of soft tissue surgery (vestibuloplasty, bleeding control after extraction, primary healing by covering of suture of a gum after the extirpation of large cysts). There are two principal components in adhesive systems biologically: lyophilized human fibrinogen and bovine thrombin. The fibrinogen component contains coagulation factor XIII and enhance the initial wound healing, which polymerizes soluble fibrin monomers into an insoluble clot. The thrombin is dissolved in a solution of calcium chloride to provide the second component. We applied fibrin adhesive, Beriplast (Behring, Behringwerke AG, D-3350, Marburg, FRD), to 4 patients for fixation of free skin grafting donors who had facial scar around eye, nose, mouth corner which received from accidents, or burn. We have experienced initial accelerated graft fixation between donor and recipient sites with no additional fixation. And It's made easy bleeding control and easy manipulation during operation. But two cases showed partial hypertrophic scar engrowth in above 3 months follow up, but no significant. Histopathological reviews in general were showed similar scar findings such as abundant collagen bundles in H&E, M/T stain, but slight positive signs in elastic and collagen antibody immunopathologic findings in hypertrophic scar cases.
