위치지정 변이기법을 이용하여 Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki NRD 6의 내독소 유전자의 N말단 독성부위를 변이시켜 Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki NRD 6-Stu 1을 육종하였다. 내독소에 대한 염기서열 조사결과, 변이주의 내독소 유전자부위에 Stu 1 인식부위가 생성되었고 특히, 이부위의 177번 염기 A가 C로 치환된 silent mutation이 일어났음을 확인하였다. 변이주의 내독소 유전자의 항원성질은 친주와 차이가 없었고 Choristoneura femiferana-1에 대한 독성도는 0.015~0.030ng으로 친주의 0.01~0.024ng과 유사하였으나 다른 친주계열인 B.t.kurstaki NRD 5의 500~1000ng과 B.t.kurstaki NRD 4(무독성)보다 강하였다.

Object : The effect of Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts on the hepatic, splenic and cardiac toxicity induced by Doxorubicin administration(Three injection protocol) were monitored using male ICR mice. Methods : The changes of body weight, clinical signs, necropsy findings and organ weights of liver, spleen and heart were observed with blood GOT and GPT levels. Results : 1. Decrease of body weight and The degrees of anorexia, ataxia and dehydration after Doxorubicin treatment were dose-dependently inhibited by Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts. 2. Increase of absolute and relative liver and heart weight observed in Doxorubicin treatment group were dose-dependently inhibited by Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts. In addition, the degrees of liver congestion necrotic spot and the degrees of heart congestion enlargement were dose-dependently decreased after Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts dosing groups compared to that of doxorubicin treatment group. It is also demonstrated that elevated serum GOT and GPT levels in doxorubicin treatment group were significantly decreased in Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts dosing groups. 3. Decrease of absolute and relative spleen weight observed in doxorubicin treatment group were dose-dependently inhibited by Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts. In addition, the degrees of splenic atrophy were significantly and dose-dependently decreased after Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts dosing groups compared to that of doxorubicin treatment group. Conclusion : the toxicity of doxorubicin treatment(decrease of body weights, clinical signs such as anorexia, ataxia and dehydration, changes of organ weights of liver, spleen and heart, elevation of serum GOT and GPT levels) was inhibited and/or prevented by Banhabakchulchunma-tang extracts. According to these results, it is considered that Banhabakchulchunma-tang has some preventive effect against to doxorubicin induced toxicity.
