This study was performed to investigate the influcence of mugwort on the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration in rats. Five groups of rats were fed each experimental diet containing 0%, 5%, 15%, 30% of mugwork powder for 10 weeks. Duodenal ulcer was induced by cysteamine injection (400mg/100g body weight) after 10 weeks of feeding experimental diets (C-0, C-5, C-15, C-30). Control animal that fed 0% mugwork powder added diet were injected saline (S-0) to compare with cysteamine injected groups. When the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine-HCI administration, all animals in the C-0 group formed erosion and perforating ulcer was found in 44% of animals. Higher the added mugwork ratio, more inhibited of the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration (C-5, C-15). But when the ratio of added mugwort is 30%, the inhibition effect disappeared (C-30). The alkaline phospatase activities were lower at the duodenal mucosa and small intestinal mucosa in the cysteamine treated groups(p<0.05). The acid phophatase activities were higher at the stomach, small intestine and large intestine of the cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, the changes of enzyme activites were lessended. The maltast activities were lower at the duodental mucosa and small intestinal mucosa of cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, maltase activites were recovered.

녹차추출액을 사용하여 Sprague Dawley 휜쥐를 63일간 사육한 뒤 십이지장궤양 유발제 cysteamineㆍHCI(400mg/1kg b.w.)을 투여하면 수도물에 의해 같은 기간 사육한 대조군 (TW군) 보다 cysteamine에 대한 감수성은 유의하게 저하되어 십이지장궤양 발병율이 TW군의 50%를 나타냈다. 또한 TW군은 cysteamine투여에 의해 십이지장점막 극재 효소인 alkaline phosphatase (ALP) 활성을 상부십이지장 점막에 있어서 현저하게 저하시켰으나 GT군은 유의하게 활성이 유지되고 ALP 분자종에 있어서도 TW군과 상이한 양상을 나타내 녹차 추출액이 cysteamine 궤양에 있어서 항 궤양적 생리활성을 발휘하고 있는 사실이 밝혀졌다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of cysteamine addition during in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture of porcine oocytes. Oocytes were matured for the first 22 h in mTCM -199 media supplemented with or without 150 $\mu$M cysteamine. They then were matured for an additional 22 h in mTCM-199 media without hormones supplemented with or without 150 $\mu$M cysteamine. When cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were matured in the mTCM-199 media supplemented with cysteamine, the rates of GVBD and maturation (metaphase II) were enhanced as compared to the media without the addition of cysteamine. Also, when COCs were matured in the mTCM-199 media supplemented with cysteamine, the rates of sperm penetration, male pronucleus formation, cleavage and blastocyst formation after in vitro fertilization were enhanced as compared to the media without the addition of cysteamine. In conclusion, it was suggested that oocytes matured for the first 22 h in mTCM-199 media supplemented with 150 $\mu$M cysteamine increased the rates of metaphase II, sperm penetration, male pronucleus and blastocyst formation were higher as compared to the media without addition of cysteamine.

Cysteamine has been used in cosmetics as an antioxidant, a hair straightening agent, and a hair waving agent. However, recent studies indicate that cysteamine can act as an allergen to hairdressers. The objective of this study was to develop and validate a simple and effective reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the measurement of cysteamine and its dimer, cystamine. Sodium 1-heptanesulfonate (NaHpSO) was used as an ion-pairing agent to improve chromatographic performance. Separation was performed on a Gemini C18 column ($250mm{\times}4.6mm$, $5{\mu}m$ particle size) using a mobile phase composed of 85:15 (v/v) 4 mM NaHpSO in 0.1% phosphoric acid:acetonitrile. UV absorbance was monitored at 215 nm. The RP-HPLC method developed in this study was validated for specificity, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantitation, precision, accuracy, and recovery. Cysteamine and cystamine were chromatographically resolved from other reducing agents such as thioglycolic acid and cysteine. Extraction using water and chloroform resulted in the recovery for cysteamine and cystamine ranging from 100.2-102.7% and 90.6-98.7%, respectively. This validated RP-HPLC method would be useful for quality control and monitoring of cysteamine and cystamine in cosmetics.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of thiol compounds with bovine oviduct epithlial crlls(BOEC) co culture on development and intracellular glutathione(GSH) concentrations of bovine embryos derived from IVM /IVF oocytes. In experiment 1 and 2, embryos developed to 2~8 cell stage after in vitro fertilization were co-cultured with BOEC in CR$_1$aa with or without $\beta$-mercaptoethanol($\beta$-ME) and cysteamine. The percentage of embryos that developed to morulae and blastocysts in 0,10, 25 and 5O$\pi$M $\beta$-ME with BOEC was 48.1, 64.0, 72.9 and 75.9%, respectively. Twenty-five and 5O$\pi$M $\beta$-ME groups were significantly higher than in 0 and 1O$\pi$M $\beta$- -ME groups(P$\pi$M cysteamine with BOEC was 50.0, 53.2, 72.0 and 66.7%, respectively. Fifty $\pi$M cysteamine group was significantly higher than any other groups (P$_4$aa with 0 and 5O$\pi$M $\beta$-ME or cysteamine were 68.5, 77.8, 78.7 and 80.0pM, respectively. Fifty $\pi$M $\beta$-ME group was significantly higher than that of control(P<0.05), but cysteamine group was not. Cell numbers of blastocysts were not difference in all experimental groups. These experiments indicate that $\beta$-ME and cysteamine with BOEC co-culture can affect the development and intracellular GSH concentrations of bovine embryos produced by IVM /IVF docytes.

목적 : 방사선에 의한 세포고사의 경로와 방사선보호제의 일종인 cysteamine (${\beta}$-mercaptoethylamine)이 방사선에 의한 세포고사에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : HL-60 세포주를 대상으로 대조군, 방사선조사군, cysteamine 전처치군(1 mM, 10 mM) 으로 나누어서 실험을 하였다. 방사선은 6 MV로 10 Gy 일회 조사하였고, cysteamine은 방사선조사 1시간 전에 처치하였다. 세포고사의 경로를 알아보기 위하여 대조군과 방사선조사군에서 Caspase딕의 활성도를 측정하였고, 세포고사에 대한 cysteamine의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 방사선조사 후 1.5, 3, 6, 24시간에서 각 실험군의 생존 세포 수, caspase-3 의 발현과 활성도, poly (ADP-rlbose) polymerase (PAHP)의 발현 등을 측정하여 비교하였다. 결과 : 세포사망수용체에 의한 세포고사의 발생과 관련이 있는 Caspase겨의 귿성도는 방사선조사에 영향을 받지 않았다(p>0.05). 생존 세포 수는 방사선조사 6시간 후부터 감소되었는데(p>0.05), 1 mM cysteamine 전처치군에서는 감소되지 않고 대조군과 비슷하게 유지되었다. 세포고사의 실행 단계라고 알려진 Caspase-3의 발현은 각 실험군들 사이에 차이가 없었으나, 활성도는 방사선조사 후에 증가되었고(P>0.05) 1 mM cysteamlne 전처치에 의해 증가가 감소되는 경향이었다. Caspase-3의 활성에 의해 발생되는 PARP 분해산물(24 kD)의 발현이 방사선조사 후에 관찰 되었는데, 1 mM cysteamine 전처치군에서는 발현의 감소가 관찰되었다. 결론 : 방사선에 의한 세포고사는 세포사망수용체에 의한 세포고사와는 다른 경로를 거치고, 1 mM cysteamine 전 처치는 방사선조사에 의한 세포고사의 발생을 억제하는 경향이 있는 것으로 생각된다.

This study aimed to verify the nutritional and curative effects of protein hydrolysate in rats with cysteamine-induced duodenal uncer. Duodenal ulcer rat model was established by intraperitoneal injections of cysteamine. Sprague-Dawley, female rats weighing approximately 200g were intraperitoneally injected twice cysteamine(13mg/100g BW) at intervals of 3h per day. This procedure was repeated 3$\times$at intervals of 3d. Animals fed on 10% casein diet for infection periods. After last injection, 4 kinds of diets(10% casein, 20% casein, 10% casein hydrolysate, 20% casein hydrolysate) were given. Gastric montility, trypsin activity in gastrointestinal content, retention rate of nitrogen, plasma total protein, albumin, amino-N, urinary urea nitrogen, creatinine and hydroxyproline were analyzed for nutritional effects of dietary nitrogen levels(10%, 20%) and sources(casein, casein hydrolysate). In duodenal ulcer rat model, there was no differences between 20% casein diet and 20% casein hydrolysate in the view of severeness of ulcer, gastric emptying rate, serum total protein, serum albumin, plasma $\alpha$-amino-N, UUN, creatinine excretion, GFR, nitrogen retention. On the other hand, rats on 10% casein hydrolysate diet group had more curative effect of the ulcer, higher plasma albumin concentration and nitrogen retention than 10% casein diet group. The casein hydrolysate diet group was lower trypsin activity in small intestinal content than the casein diet group, at both nitrogen levels(10%, 20%). The results suggest that protein hydrolysate be applied in diet therapy for the patients with gastrointestinal ulcer.

Historically, Korea old cattle had been consisted with various lines of coat color brindle, black and white-brown breeds or more. The two rare lines of black and white coat color are maintained for animal resources and preserved critically. The present study was carried out to evaluate potential usage of cysteamine supplementation during in vitro matration (IVM) and in vitro culture/production of embryo (IVP) by transvaginal ultrasound-guided follicle aspiration (Ovum Pick-Up: OPU) for the establishment of cryo-banking system. Immature slaughterhouse-derived cumulus-oocyte complexes (SL-COCs) were matured in IVM medium supplemented with 0, 0.1, 0.3 or 0.9 mM cysteamine, and then cultured in mSOF-BAS for 8 days after in vitro fertilization. The treatment of 0.1 mM cysteamine on SL-COCs showed higher rate of blastocyst, so OPU-derived COCs from rare breeds were matured in TCM media supplemented with or without 0.1 mM cysteamine, FSH and 5% FBS. The embryos were evaluated their developmental stages on day 8. During IVM, cysteamine treatment significantly increased the embryo production rate of slaughterhouse-derived COCs (19.6% vs. 30.5%). The presence of cysteamine during IVM of OPU-derived COCs from rare Korean cattle breeds (albino white and black line) also increased embryo production rates than those from SL-COCs (27.4% vs. 41.9% and 36.4%). With these results, cysteamine treatment during IVM is one of key factors IVP of blastocysts to establish banking system of endangered rare Koarean cattle with OPU derived transferable blastocysts.

The effect of thiol compounds on development and intracellular glutathione(GSH) concentrations of bovine embryos produced by in vitro maturation and in vitro fertilization(IVM/IVF) was examined in CRlaa medium with or without $\beta$-mercaptoethanol(0, 10, 25 and 50$\mu$MME) and cysteamine(0, 25, 50 and 75 $\mu$M). Numbers of cells comprising blastocysts were also counted using double fluorescence stain and the total glutathione levels(oxidized and reduced form) of morula and blastocyst embryos were than measured by an enzymatic method. Following routine IVM/IVF procedures oocytes and zygotes were cultured for 40 to 44h in CRlaa medium. Then 2 to 8-cell embyos had cumulus cell removed and were allotted randomly to the experimental medium. In Experiment 1, the proportion of embryos developing to and beyond morulae stages in 0, 10, 25 and 50 $\mu$M $\beta$-ME was 42.9%, 50.0%, 53.7% and 65.6%, respectively. Fifty $\mu$M $\beta$-ME group was significantly higher than those of any other groups (P<0.05). In Experiment 2, the percentages of embryos developed beyond morulae stages in 0, 25, 50 and 75 $\mu$M cysteamine was 42.9%, 40.4%, 60.0% and 59.2%, respectively. Fifty and 75$\mu$M cysteamine groups were significantly higher than in 0 and 25 $\mu$M cysteamine groups, but all of culture medium containing cysteamine(52.6%) was not significantly difference in control group(42.9%). In Experiment 3, the intracellular GSH concentrations of morulae and blastocyst embryos in 0 and 50 $\mu$M $\beta$-ME was 42.4 pM and 44.9 pM, 49.5 pM and 67.8 pM, respectively. Morulae embryos were not difference, but blastocyst embryos were significantly difference between treatments(P<0.05). In Experiment 4, the intracellular GSH concentrations of morulae in CRlaa with or without cysteamine were 39.8 pM and 45.6 pM, and blastocysts were 59.3 pM and 66.8 pM, respectively. Cell numbers of blastocysts were similar to in all experimental groups. These experiments indicate that thiol compounds can increase the proportion of embryos that developing to and beyond morulae stage and the intracellular GSH concentrations.
