본 연구에서는 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물의 HaCaT 세포와 사람 적혈구 세포에서의 세포 보호 효과 및 항산화능을 측정하였다. HaCaT 세포를 이용한 실험에서, 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물의 에틸아세테이트 분획과 아글리콘 분획은 각각 $50{\mu}g/mL$ 및 $25{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 독성을 나타내지 않았다. 10 mM의 $H_2O_2$ 및 $30{\mu}M$의 rose bengal을 HaCaT 세포에 처리하였을 때, 에틸아세테이트 분획($6.25{\sim}50{\mu}g/mL$) 및 아글리콘 분획($6.25{\sim}25{\mu}g/mL$)은 농도 의존적으로 세포를 보호하였다. 적혈구 광용혈에서 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물은 $10{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 대표적인 지용성 항산화제인 ${\alpha}$-토코페롤보다도 큰 세포보호효과를 나타내었다. 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물 에틸아세테이트 분획의 free radical (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) 소거활성($FSC_{50}$)은 $18.5{\mu}g/mL$를 나타내었다. Luminol-의존성 화학발광법을 이용한 $Fe^{3+}$-EDTA/$H_2O_2$계에서 생성된 활성산소종(reactive oxygen species, ROS)에 대한 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물의 총항산화능($OSC_{50}$)은 에틸아세테이트 분획의 경우 $1.72{\mu}g/mL$, 아글리콘 분획은 $1.53{\mu}g/mL$로 대표적 항산화제인 L-ascorbic acid ($OSC_{50}=1.50{\mu}g/mL$)와 유사한 항산화능의 크기를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과들은 담쟁이덩굴 줄기 추출물이 ROS에 대항하여 세포를 보호함으로써 생체계, 특히 태양 자외선에 노출된 피부에서 세포보호제 및 천연항산화제로서 작용할 수 있음을 가르킨다.

Heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27) is a molecular chaperone protein which regulates cell apoptosis by interacting directly with the caspase activation components in the apoptotic pathways. With the assistance of the Tat protein transduction domain we directly delivered the Hsp27 into the myocardial cell line, H9c2 and demonstrate that this protein can reverse hypoxia-induced apoptosis of cells. In order to characterize the contribution of Hsp27 in blocking the two major apoptotic pathways operational within cells, we exposed H9c2 cells to staurosporine and cobalt chloride, agents that induce mitochondria-dependent (intrinsic) and -independent (extrinsic) pathways of apoptosis in cells respectively. The Tat-Hsp27 fusion protein showed a greater propensity to inhibit the effect induced by the cobalt chloride treatment. These data suggest that the Hsp27 predominantly exerts its protective effect by interfering with the components of the extrinsic pathway of apoptosis.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the modulatory effect of oroxylin A on hydrogen peroxide production in TM4 mouse testis sertoli cells induced by the synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA [polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid]. Hydrogen peroxide production was measured by dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR) assay. Oroxylin A significantly inhibited the polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PIC)-induced production of hydrogen peroxide for 0.5, 2, 12, 18, and 24 hr incubation at the concentrations of 5, 10, 25, and $50{\mu}M$ in TM4 (P < 0.05) in dose dependent manner. These results suggest that oroxylin A has a protective effect against PIC-induced cellular toxicity with its inhibition of hydrogen peroxide production in PIC-induced sertoli cells.

This study was conducted to investigate antioxidant activity and anti-immunological inflammatory effect of Allium victorialis subsp. platyphyllum extracts (AVPEs). Antioxidant activities of AVPEs were determined by free radical scavenging assay and reducing power test. Leaf-part extract had comparatively better antioxidant activity than other-part extracts. Antioxidant activity of extracts had protective effect for human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) against superoxide anions secreted from activated neutrophils. Also, we observed AVPEs had inhibitory effects on the adherence of monocytic THP-1 to HUVEC monolayer to the basal level. Inhibitory effect on cell adhesion was caused by suppression of tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}\;(TNF-{\alpha})-upregulated$ expression of vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and E-selectin in HUVECs. From these results, we expect to support the evidence of anti-immunological inflammatory effects of Allium victorialis subsp. platyphyllum (AVP) as a Korean traditional pharmaceutical.

피부는 인체를 구성하는 가장 큰 장기로 생체 내부를 보호한다. 자외선은 피부에 광노화와 산화적 손상을 비롯한 다양한 염증반응을 일으킨다. 본 연구의 목적은 섬유아세포에서 UVB를 조사하여 Saponaria 추출물의 보호 효과를 조사하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 UVB에 의한 세포독성과 산화적 세포사멸, NO 및 PGE₂ 생성에 대한 보호활성을 나타내는 Saponaria의 유효성을 평가하였다. HS68 세포를 UVB(120mJ/cm²)에 조사하고 100, 200, 400 ㎍/mL의 다양한 농도로 Saponaria 추출물로 24시간 동안 처리하였으며, 자외선 B에 의해 생성된 세포 내 활성 산소 종(ROS)은 DCF-DA 염색 후 분광 형광계를 사용하여 검출하였다. 또한 지질 과산화는 배양 배지로 분비되는 8-이소프로스탄의 수준을 측정하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 Saponaria 추출물이 UVB에 의한 세포독성을 효과적으로 억제하였다. 산화적 세포 손상은 UVB로 유도된 HS68 섬유아세포에서 PGE₂를 매개하였고, 이는 사포나리아 추출물 처리에 의하여 유의하게 억제되었다. 또한, 이들 추출물의 보호 효과는 농도 의존적으로 세포내 ROS 생성 및 지질 과산화 억제에 의해 매개되는 것으로 평가되었다. 이러한 결과는 Saponaria 추출물이 자외선 B에 의한 산화적 스트레스로 매개한 피부 손상을 억제하여 세포 보호효과를 나타내므로 항노화 기능성 소재로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Edaravone (Eda) is a potent scavenger of inhibiting free radicals including hydroxyl radicals ($H_2O_2$). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as $H_2O_2$ can alter most kinds of cellular molecules such as lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, cellular apoptosis. In addition, oxidative stress from over-production of ROS is involved in the defective embryo development of porcine. Previous study reported that Eda has protective effects against oxidative stress-like cellular damage. However, the effect of Eda on the preimplantation porcine embryos development under oxidative stress is unclear. Therefore, in this study, the effects of Eda on blastocyst development, expression levels of ROS, and apoptotic index were first investigated in preimplantation porcine embryos. After in vitro fertilization, porcine embryos were cultured for 6 days in PZM medium with Eda ($10{\mu}M$), $H_2O_2$ ($200{\mu}M$), and Eda+$H_2O_2$ treated group, respectively. Rate of blastocyst development was significantly increased (P<0.05) in the Eda treated group compared with only $H_2O_2$ treated group. And, we measured intracellular levels of ROS by DCF-DA staining methods and investigated numbers of apoptotic nuclei by TUNEL assay analysis is in porcine blastocyst, respectively. Both intracellular ROS levels and the numbers of apoptotic nucleic were significantly decreased (P<0.05) in porcine blastocysts cultured with Eda ($10{\mu}M$). More over, the total cell number of blastocysts were significantly increased (P<0.05) in the Eda-treated group compared with untreated group and the only $H_2O_2$ treated group. Based on the results, Eda was related to regulate as antioxidant-like function according to the reducing ROS levels during preimplantation periods. Also, Eda is beneficial for developmental competence and preimplantation quality of porcine embryos. Therefore, we concluded that Eda has protective effect to ROS derived apoptotic stress in preimplantation porcine embryos.

In this study, the antioxidative effects and inhibitory effects on tyrosinase and elastase of Sorbus commixta (S. commixta) twig extracts were investigated. The aglycone fraction of S. commixta twig extract showed the prominent free radical (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) scavenging activity($FSC_{50}$, $13{\mu}g/mL$). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activities of S. commixta twig extracts on ROS generated in $Fe^{3+}-EDTA/H_2O_2$ system were investigated by the luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay. The 50 % ethanol extract among extracts showed the most prominent ROS scavenging activity ($OSC_{50}$, $0.189{\mu}g/mL$). The cellular protective effects of extract/fractions of S. commixta twig on the rose-bengal sensitized photohemolysis of human erythrocytes were investigated. The 50 % ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction showed the cellular protective effects against ROS in a concentration dependent manner ($5{\sim}50{\mu}g/mL$). The inhibitory effect of S. commixta twig extract on tyrosinase was investigated to assess the whitening efficacy. The ethyl acetate ($IC_{50}$, $113.2{\mu}g/mL$) and aglycone fraction($IC_{50}$, $105.3{\mu}g/mL$) on tyrosinase showed more remarkable inhibitory effect than arbutin($IC_{50}$, $226.88{\mu}g/mL$), known as the whitening agent. The inhibitory effect of aglycone fraction ($IC_{50}$, $6.9{\mu}g/mL$) on elastase was simillar to quercetin($IC_{50}$, $6.1{\mu}g/mL$), flavonoid known as reference compound. These results indicate that extract/fractions of S. commixta twig can function as antioxidants in biological systems, particularly skin exposed to UV radiation by scavenging $^1O_2$ and other ROS, and protect cellular membranes against ROS. S. commixta twig extracts can be applicable to new functional cosmetics for anti-aging products.

Objectives : This study investigated cellular-protective effects of Nardotidis seu Sulculii Concha water extract (NSCE) against oxidative stress induced by arachidonic acid (AA)+iron or tert-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP). Methods : In vitro, MTT assay was assessed for cell viability, and immunoblotting analysis was performed to detect expression of AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway and autophagy related proteins. In vivo, mice were orally administrated with the aqueous extract of NSCE of 500 mg/kg for 3 days, and then injected with CCl₄ 0.5 mg/kg body weight to induce acute damage. The level of liver damage was measured by serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) analysis. Results : Treatment with NSCE inhibited cell death induced by AA+iron and tBHP. NSCE induced the phosphorylation of AMPK, and this compound also induced the phosphorylation of LKB1, an upstream kinase of AMPK, and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), a primary downstream target of AMPK. NSCE increased the protein levels of autophagic markers (LC3II and beclin-1) and decreased the phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and simultaneously increased the phosphorylation of unc-51-like kinase-1 (ULK-1) in time-dependent manner. Conclusions : NSCE has the ability 1) to protect cells against oxidative stress induced by AA+iron or tBHP. NSCE 2) to activate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and 3) to regulate autophagy, an important regulator in cell survival.
