밀싹 추출물의 생리활성 및 화장품 소재로서의 가능성 여부를 규명하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 세포실험을 통해 밀싹 추출물의 피부 세포에 대한 독성을 확인하고, 피부 세포 미백 활성 및 노화에 대한 연구를 수행하여 기능성 화장품 소재로서의 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구 결과 밀싹 추출물이 HDF, B16F10 세포에 대한 독성이 적은 것으로 확인되었다. 멜라닌 생합성 억제에 대한 효과는 약한 것으로 확인되었으나, 자외선에 유도되는 MMP-1의 발현을 저해함으로써 피부의 광노화를 억제하는 효과를 통해 광노화에 의한 피부 주름과 자연 노화에 의한 피부 주름을 예방하는데 유의한 효과를 가질 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 밀싹 추출물의 기능성 화장품 소재로 사용 시 피부 노화 예방 관점에서의 기능성 화장품 소재로 매우 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The study of metabolomics in natural products using the diverse analytical instruments including GC-MS, LC-MS, and NMR is useful for the exploration of physiological and biological effects and the investigation of drug discovery and health functional foods. Cordyceps militaris has been very attractive to natural medicine as a traditional Chinese medicine, due to its various bioactive properties including anti-cancer and anti-oxidant effects. In this study, we analyzed the metabolite profile in 50% ethanol extracts of C. militaris fruit bodies from three development periods (growth period, matured period, and aging period) using $^1H-NMR$, and identified 44 metabolites, which are classified as 16 amino acids, 10 organic acids, 5 carbohydrates, 3 nucleotide derivatives, and 10 other compounds. Among the three development periods of the C. militaris fruit body, the aging period showed significantly higher levels of metabolites including cordycepin, mannitol (cordycepic acid), and ${\beta}-glucan$. Interestingly, these bioactive metabolites are positively correlated with antitumor growth effect; the extract of the aging period showed significant inhibition of HepG2 hepatic cancer cell proliferation. These results showed that the aging period during the development of C. militaris fruit bodies was more highly enriched with bioactive metabolites that are associated with cancer cell growth inhibition.

Background: Resin-based dental materials release residual monomers or other substances from incomplete polymerization into the oral cavity, thereby causing adverse biological effects on oral tissue. 10-Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP), an acidic monomer containing dihydrogen phosphate and methacrylate groups, is the most commonly used component of resin-based dental materials, such as restorative composite resins, dentin adhesives, and resin cements. Although previous studies have reported the cytotoxicity and biocompatibility in various cultured cells, the effects of resin monomers on cellular aging have not been reported to date. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of the resin monomer 10-MDP on cellular senescence and inflamm-aging in vitro. Methods: After stimulation with 10-MDP, MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells were examined for cell viability by WST-8 assay and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by flow cytometry. The protein and mRNA levels of molecular markers of aging were determined by western blotting and RT-PCR analysis, respectively. Results: Treatment with 0.05 to 1 mM 10-MDP for 24 hours reduced the survival of MC3T3-E1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The intracellular ROS levels in the 10-MDP-treated experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. 10-MDP at a concentration of 0.1 mM increased p53, p16, and p21 protein levels. Additionally, an aging pattern was observed with blue staining due to intracellular senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity. Treatment with 10-MDP increased the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-8, however their expression was decreased by mitogen-activated-protein-kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that the exposure of osteoblast-like cells to the dental resin monomer 10-MDP, increases the level of cellular senescence and the inflammatory response is mediated by the MAPK pathway.

발효직후의 처여맥관가 갖인 우수한 발포성이 제조공정이 끝날 무렵에는 현저히 손실되는 사실을 발견하고 그 원인을 조사한 결과 효소에 의한 제탁조작을 동반한 숙성 및 멸균과정이 맥주의 발포성을 크게 상실시킨다는 것이 증명되었다.

전통된장 제조방법으로서 원료 혼합비, 메주의 건조시간 및 온도, 메주와 된장의 발효 시간 및 온도, 된장 간장의 분리 여부, 된장 숙성(aging) 시간을 조사하였다. 혈액응고 저해 활성(anticoagulant activity)을 fibrin clotting assay법으로 분석하여 혈액응고 저해활성과 제법간의 상관 관계를 검토하였다. 숙성 기간이 길수록 혈액응고 저해활성이 높게 나타나는 경향을 보였으나 선형적인 상관관계보다는 비선형적으로 양의 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 판단되었다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 혈액응고 저해활성이 높은 2종의 된장시료를 선발하였으며 숙성기간이 180일 이상일 경우 전통된장의 혈액응고 저해활성이 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

Toxicoproteomics integrates the proteomic knowledge into toxicology by enabling protein quantification in biofluids and tissues, thus taking toxicological research to the next level. Post-translational modification (PTM) alters the three-dimensional (3D) structure of proteins by covalently binding small molecules to them and therefore represents a major protein function diversification mechanism. Because of the crucial roles PTM plays in biological systems, the identification of novel PTMs and study of the role of PTMs are gaining much attention in proteomics research. Of the 300 known PTMs, protein acylation, including lysine formylation, acetylation, propionylation, butyrylation, malonylation, succinylation, and crotonylation, regulates the crucial functions of many eukaryotic proteins involved in cellular metabolism, cell cycle, aging, growth, angiogenesis, and cancer. Here, I reviewed recent studies regarding novel types of lysine acylation, their biological functions, and their applicationsin toxicoproteomics research.

Mitochondria play a key role in maintaining life by producing ATP and heat. Recent researches have demonstrated that degenerative diseases such as heart failure, obesity/diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and psychiatric diseases are accompanied by mitochondria dysfunction. In this sense, mitochondria medicine considers the significance of mitochondria in human pathology and tries to explain degenerative diseases as a fatal consequence of mitochondria dysfunction. Here, I introduce the fundamentals of mitochondria physiology and present examples showing the relationship between mitochondria dysfunction and chronic complex diseases. Although mitochondria medicine uses a molecular biological approach predominantly, a biomedical engineering approach might play a critical role in unveiling the complexity of mitochondria medicine and in its application to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases. Thus, I also briefly review the prospects of research using biomedical engineering methods.
