  • Objective: To explore the radiosensitization effect of overexpression of silent information regulator 6 (SIRT6) on A549 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Methods: Adenovirus vector Ad-SIRT6 causing overexpression of SIRT6 was established. Western blotting and MTT assay were adopted to detect the level of SIRT6 protein and the inhibitory rate of A549 cell proliferation after different concentrations of adenovirus transduction (0, 25, 100, 200, and 400 pfu/cell) for 24 h. Control group, Ad-null group and Ad-SIRT6 group were designed in this experiment and virus concentration of the latter two groups was 200 pfu/cell. Colony formation assays were employed to test survival fraction (SF) of the 3 groups after 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 X-ray irradiation. Flow cytometry was used to detect the status of cell cycle of 3 groups after 48 h of 4Gy X-ray irradiation and Western blotting was used to determine the expression of apoptosis-related genes of 3 groups after 48 h of 4GyX-ray irradiation. Results: In the range of 25~400 pfu/cell, the inhibitory rate of A549 cell proliferation increased as adenovirus concentration raised. The inhibitory rates under the concentrations of 0, 25, 100, 200, and 400 pfu/cell were 0%, $4.23{\pm}0.34%$, $12.7{\pm}2.57%$, $22.6{\pm}3.38%$, $32.2{\pm}3.22%$, $38.7{\pm}4.09%$ and $47.8{\pm}5.58%$ and there were significantly differences among groups (P<0.05). SF in Ad-SIRT6 group was lower than Ad-null and control groups after 4~10Gy X-ray irradiation (P<0.05) and the sensitization enhancement ratio (SER) was 1.35 when compared with control group. Moreover, after 48 h of 4Gy X-ray irradiation, there appeared a significant increase in G1-phase cell proportion, upregulated expression of the level of apoptosis-promoting genes (Bax and Cleaved caspase-3), but a obvious decline in S-phase and G2-phase cell proportion and a significant decrease of the level of apoptosis-inhibiting gene (Bal-2) in the Ad-SIRT6 group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The over-expression of adenovirus-mediated SIRT6, which has radiosensitization effect on A549 cells of NSCLC, can inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells and cause G0/G1 phase retardation as well as induce apoptosis of cells.

  • Trichoderma species are a rich source of metabolites, but less known for biomedical potential. This work deals with antibacterial and antioxidant potentials of intracellular non-cytotoxic metabolites, extracted from Trichoderma atroviride (KNUP001). A total of 53 fractions was collected by column chromatography and tested for cytotoxicity by MTT assay. Only one fraction (F41) was found to be non-toxic to Vero cells with $95.4{\pm}0.61%$ of survival. The F41 was then subjected to chemical analysis, antibacterial and antioxidant assays. The F41 at $500{\mu}g.ml^{-1}$ showed the total antioxidant of $48.70{\pm}2.90%$, DPPH radical scavenging activity of $37.25{\pm}2.25$, nitric oxide (NO) radical scavenging activity of $54.55{\pm}1.95$ and $H_2O_2$ radical scavenging activity of $43.75{\pm}3.21$. The F41 at $25{\mu}g.ml^{-1}$ displayed antibacterial activity against E. coli ($14.25{\pm}0.2mm$), P. mirabilis ($10.4{\pm}0.6mm$), S. dysenteriae ($18.6{\pm}03mm$), S. paratyphi A ($14.1{\pm}1.1mm$), E. aerogenes ($5.6{\pm}0.4mm$) and S. marcescens ($14.25{\pm}0.2mm$). GC-MS analysis revealed the dominant presence of oleic acid C 18.1 (63.18%), n-hexadecanoic acid (6.17%), and ethyl oleate (4.93%) and potent molecules such as 8-[(2E)-2-(3-hydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinyl]-1,3,7-trimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione, 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl (1Z)-N-hydroxy-2-(4-morpholinyl)-2-oxoethanimidothioate, Fluorene in the F41, and virtual study revealed that these molecules are likely responsible for the antibacterial activities of F41. Hence, further investigation deserves on purification and characterization of the active metabolites from T. atroviride strain KNUP001 towards developing molecular leads to effective antibacterial drugs, and non-toxic to host cells.

  • Panax ginseng has been extensively used in the traditional oriental medicine as a restorative, tonic and Prophylactic agent. Recently, several reports regarding to anticancer effects of Panax ginseng has accumulated. These studies emphasized the fact that the anticancer activities might be due to a glycoside group called ginsenoside or pan.u saponin which has a water soluble characteristic. However, the authors and collaborates demonstrated that a highly lipid soluble component in extract of Panax ginseng roots contains a considerable cytotoxic activities against marine leukemic cells (L1210, P388) and human censer cells (HRT-18, HT-29, HCT48). This study was devised to observe the cytotoxic activities of Petroleum-ether extract of Panax giuseng roots (crude GBD and its Partially Purified fraction from silicic acid column chromatography (7 : 3 GX) against sarcoma-180 (5-180) and Walker carcinosar- coma 256 (Walker 256) in vivo, and murine leukemic Lymphocytes (L1210) and human rectal cancer cells (HRT-18) and human colon cancer cells (HT-29 and HCT48) in vitro. Each cell-line was cultured in medium containing serial concentration of the crude GX or 7 : 3 GX in vitro. A highly lipid soluble compound in the extract of Panax ginseng root was cytocidal to murine leukemic cells and human colon and rectal cancer cells in vitro. In the meantime, ginseng saponin derivatives did not have cytotoxic effects at its corresponding concentration. The growth rates of the cancer cells in medium containing ginseng extracts were inhibited gradually to a significant degree roughly in proportion to the increase of the extract concentration. The cytotoxic activity of 7 : 3 GX was about 3 times more potent than that of crude GX, one unit of cytotoxic activity against L1210 cells being equivalent to 2.54 Ug and 058 Ug for the crude GX and 7 : 3 GX, respectively. The Ri value of the active compound on silica- gel thin layer chromatography with petroleum-ether/ethyl ether/acetic acid mixture (90 : 10 : 1, v/v/v) as a developing so lvent was 053. While, the Panaxydol and Panaxynol as active compounds were purified from Petroleum-ether extract of Panax ginseng root by Drs. Ahn and Kim, and author found out that the one unit of cytotoxic activity of the Panaxydol and Panaxynol against L1210 cells being equivalent to 056 Ug and 0.3918 respectively. The survival times of mice inoculated with S-180 cells were extended about 1.5 to 2 times by the 7 : 3 GX treatment compared with their control group. The significantly decreased hemoglobin values of rats after inoculation with Walker 256 were recovered to normal range by oral administration of the crude Gt The synthetic levels of protein, DNA and RNA in human colon and rectal cancer cells were significantly diminished by treatment with the crude GX, which can explain a part of the origin of its anticancer activity.

  • 본 연구에서는 금불초(Inula britannica) 추출물의 항산화 효과와 ${H_2}{O_2}$로부터 유도된 SH-SY5Y 신경모세포종의 세포독성에 대한 보호능을 측정하였다. 금불초 지상부위의 70% 메탄올 추출물에 대하여 용매별로 분획을 실시하였고 핵산(Fr.H), 에틸아세테이트(Fr.EA) 및 물(Fr.W) 분획에 대하여 활성을 조사하였다. 분획 중 Fr.W의 폴리페놀/플라보노이드 함량이 가장 높았으며 Fr.W의 총 폴리페놀 함량은 $318.1{\pm}20.6{\mu}g$/mg solid로, Fr.EA 및 Fr.H와 비교하여 각각 약 2.5배, 23.1배 수준이었다. DPPH radical, ABTS radical 및 nitric oxide 소거능 등의 항산화 활성에서도 Fr.W가 가장 높은 활성을 나타내었고 Fr.H는 거의 활성을 나타내지 않았다. Fr.W는 ${H_2}{O_2}$에 의해 유도된 세포사멸에 대하여 62.5 ${\mu}g$/mL 농도에서 현저하게 세포독성을 감소시켰으며 250 ${\mu}g$/mL에서는 77.0%의 세포사멸 억제능을 보였다. Fr.EA는 보호 효과를 나타 내지 않았으며 Fr.H는 오히려 ${H_2}{O_2}$로 인한 세포 독성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 세포 내 ROS에 대한 영향으로 Fr.W 250 ${\mu}g$/mL 처리시 39.2% 세포내 ROS를 감소시켰으며 Fr.EA는 25 ${\mu}g$/mL에서 26.8%의 세포내 ROS를 소거하였다. 이러한 금불초 Fr.W의 항산화 활성은 ROS에 의해 야기되는 뇌세포 독성에 대한 보호 작용에 공헌할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 은이온이 이온 교환되어 있는 수처리제(Ag-Os)의 영향을 Bacillus sp. 와 E. Coli RB 797을 사용하여 연구하였다. Bacillus sp.의 성장이 E. Coli RB 797의 성장에서보다 더 은이온에 민감하게 억제됨을 보였다. 성장억제에 필요되어지는 Ag-Os양은 0.2 mg/ml 이상에서 E. Coli RB 797를 0.02 mg/ml 이상에서 Bacillus sp. 의 성장을 저해하며 Ag-Os 수처리제의 존재하에서 생존 할 수 있는 세포 수도 E. Coli RB 797이 더 많음을 보여 윗 결과와 일치함을 보였다. 세포에 bind되는 것은 몇 분안에 일어 나는 과정이며 starved cells에서도 일어나는 에너지를 필요치 않는 과정임을 Binding연구는 나타내고 있다. 또한 Bacillus sp.의 은이온 binding이 더 많이 일어남을 보여준다. 수처리제의 존재하에서 reducing substances가 생성됨을 methylene blue를 indicatr로 사용하여 관찰하였다. 이상의 결과로 이 수처리제는 E. Coli RB 797과 Bacillus sp. 에 대해 효과적이며 은이온은 빠르고 에너지를 필요로 하지 않는 과정에 의해 세포에 bind한후 세포내로 들어가 sulfur group과 반응할 것으로 사료된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 모유 유래 유산균 E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005의 다제내성 균주에 대한 항균효과 및 probiotics로써 잠재적인 가능성을 확인하였다. E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005는 다제내성 균주 20주(Enterococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Escherichia spp., Pseudomonas spp., Salmonella spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp.)에서 모두 MBC가 확인되어 다제내성 균주에 대한 우수한 항균효과를 입증하였다. 또한 RP-HPLC를 이용하여 배양액 내 bacteriocin을 확인하였으며, 이에 대한 분획은 gram 양성 및 gram 음성균주에서 모두 항균력이 나타나, E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005가 생산하는 bacteriocin의 광범위한 항균 스펙트럼을 입증하였다. E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005는 발암 화합물을 유발하는 β-glucuronidase에 대한 활성과 용혈성은 나타나지 않아 안전한 것으로 판단된다. E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005는 vancomycin에 대해서는 내성을 보이나, kanamycin (>0.058), ampicillin (>0.002), erythromycin (>0.002)은 EFSA 기준의 허용범위보다 낮은 MIC가 확인되었다. 또한 인공위액(pH 2.0) 및 인공 담즙산(0.3% bile acid) 조건에서 각각 98.67%, 95.70%의 생존율을 보였다. 이와 같은 결과는 본 연구에서 분리한 모유 유래 유산균 E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005가 다제내성 균주에 대한 우수한 항균활성을 갖는 probiotics로써 잠재적인 가능성을 보여준다. 따라서 건강기능식품의 기준 및 규격에 제시된 바와 같이 Enterococcus spp.는 항생제 내성 및 독성 유전자가 없는 경우에 한하여 probiotics로 사용이 가능한 고시하고 있어 E. faecalis BMSE-HMP005의 안전성에 대한 추가적인 검증이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • Sirtuins (SIRTs) belong to the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent class III histone deacetylase family. They are key regulators of cellular and physiological processes, such as cell survival, senescence, differentiation, DNA damage and stress response, cellular metabolism, and aging. SIRTs also influence carcinogenesis, making them potential targets for anticancer therapeutic strategies. In this study, we investigated the anticancer properties and underlying molecular mechanisms of a novel SIRT1 inhibitor, MHY2251, in human colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. MHY2251 reduced the viability of various human CRC cell lines, especially those with wild-type TP53. MHY2251 inhibited SIRT1 activity and SIRT1/2 protein expression, while promoting p53 acetylation, which is a target of SIRT1 in HCT116 cells. MHY2251 treatment triggered apoptosis in HCT116 cells. It increased the percentage of late apoptotic cells and the sub-G1 fraction (as detected by flow cytometric analysis) and induced DNA fragmentation. In addition, MHY2251 upregulated the expression of FasL and Fas, altered the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2, downregulated the levels of pro-caspase-8, -9, and -3 proteins, and induced subsequent poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage. The induction of apoptosis by MHY2251 was related to the activation of the caspase cascade, which was significantly attenuated by pre-treatment with Z-VAD-FMK, a pan-caspase inhibitor. Furthermore, MHY2251 stimulated the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and MHY2251-triggered apoptosis was blocked by pre-treatment with SP600125, a JNK inhibitor. This finding indicated the specific involvement of JNK in MHY2251-induced apoptosis. MHY2251 shows considerable potential as a therapeutic agent for targeting human CRC via the inhibition of SIRT1 and activation of JNK/p53 pathway.

  • BACKGROUND: The prognostic utility of follow-up transthoracic echocardiography (FU-TTE) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is unclear, specifically in terms of whether changes in echocardiographic parameters in routine FU-TTE parameters are associated with cardiovascular outcomes. METHODS: From 2010 to 2017, 162 patients with HCM were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Using echocardiography, HCM was diagnosed based on morphological criteria. Patients with other diseases that cause cardiac hypertrophy were excluded. TTE parameters at baseline and FU were analyzed. FU-TTE was designated as the last recorded value in patients who did not develop any cardiovascular event or the latest exam before event development. Clinical outcomes were acute heart failure, cardiac death, arrhythmia, ischemic stroke, and cardiogenic syncope. RESULTS: Median interval between the baseline TTE and FU-TTE was 3.3 years. Median clinical FU duration was 4.7 years. Septal trans-mitral velocity/mitral annular tissue Doppler velocity (E/e'), tricuspid regurgitation velocity, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and left atrial volume index (LAVI) at baseline were recorded. LVEF, LAVI, and E/e' values were associated with poor outcomes. However, no delta values predicted HCM-related cardiovascular outcomes. Logistic regression models incorporating changes in TTE parameters had no significant findings. Baseline LAVI was the best predictor of a poor prognosis. In survival analysis, an already enlarged or increased size LAVI was associated with poorer clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Changes in echocardiographic parameters extracted from TTE did not assist in predicting clinical outcomes. Cross-sectionally evaluated TTE parameters were superior to changes in TTE parameters between baseline and FU at predicting cardiovascular events.
