  • 목 적 : 최근 알레르기 질환은 소아 유병률의 많은 부분을 차지하며 최근 알레르기 질환은 점차 증가하는 추세를 보인다. 알레르기 질환의 증가와 더불어 만성기침의 유병률 또한 증가하는 추세로 만성 기침을 하는 소아에서 그 원인 항원을 찾는 것은 정확한 진단뿐만 아니라 특정 항원에 대한 예방 및 치료를 가능하게 한다는 점에서 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 저자들은 만성 기침을 하는 1세에서 6세 사이의 소아에서 간단한 설문을 통해 얻은 정보로 다른 알레르기 질환의 과거력과 가족력 및 다른 호흡기 증상과 특이 IgE 검사와의 연관성을 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 2002년 3월부터 2005년 6월까지 만성 기침을 주소로 건양대학교병원 소아과에 내원한 1세에서 6세 사이의 소아를 대상으로 설문 조사와 혈액 검사를 시행한 최종 106명을 대상으로 하였다. 설문 조사를 통해 영아 습진의 병력, 모세기관지염의 병력, 알레르기 질환의 가족력, 가정 내 흡연자의 유무, 모유 수유의 여부, 가정 내 애완동물(개, 고양이 등)의 유무, 카페트 사용 여부에 대해 조사하였다. 총 106명의 환아들의 혈액 검사를 통해 흡입항원 MAST, 총 IgE 값과 말초 혈액 호산구 수를 측정하였고 흡인항원 MAST 검사의 알레르겐 중 유럽 집먼지 진드기, 북아메리카 집먼지 진드기, 집먼지, 개, 고양이에 대한 양성 반응을 조사하였다. 결 과 : MAST 결과 북아메리카 집먼지 진드기에 양성을 보인 경우는 29.2%로 가장 높았고 집먼지가 27.4%, 양이 16%, 개 14.2%이었으며 유럽 집먼지 진드기는 12.3%의 양성률을 보였다. MAST 결과가 양성인 51명과 음성인 55명을 두 군으로 나누어 비교하였을 때 MAST 양성인 군에서 나이가 4-6세로 많은 경우는 33명이었으며 MAST 음성인 군에서 나이가 많은 경우는 19명으로 유의한 차이를 보였고(P=0.019) 영아습진은 32명과 19명으로 유의한 차이를 보였으며(P<0.001) 알레르기 질환의 가족력과 가정 내 흡연자가 있는 경우도 P<0.001로 의미 있는 차이를 보였다. MAST 양성 결과를 보인 51명의 총 IgE 값은 $405.7{\pm}740.7IU/mL$, MAST에서 음성을 보인 55명의 총 IgE 값은 $104.5{\pm}109.2IU/mL$로 두 군 사이에 유의한 차이를 보였으며(P=0.041), 호산구 수는 두 군에서 $478{\pm}505/{\mu}L$$290{\pm}265/{\mu}L$로 두 군 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(P=0.097). 결 론 : 저자들은 간단한 설문을 통한 정보로 3주 이상의 만성 기침을 주소로 내원한 환아에서 다른 알레르기 질환의 과거력과 가족력 및 다른 호흡기 증상과 특이 IgE 검사(inhalant MAST)와의 연관성을 알아보았고, 나이, 영아습진의 병력, 가정 내 흡연과 알레르기 질환의 가족력이 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • Omega-3 fatty acids are a specific type of unsaturated fat that the body cannot manufacture on its own, so they must be obtained from food which is essential fatty acids (EFAs). Omega-3 fatty acids consist of three types which are a-Linolenic Acid (ALA), Eicosapentaenoic (ELA), and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). Especially, EFAs help to prevent skin and hair drying, acne, eczema, prevention from allergies, brittle nails, rashes, and tiny lumps. The aim of this study is to investigate improvement and protection for hair damaged by chemical treatment with omega-3 formulated shampoo. We selected virgin hair sample and divided into two groups for bleaching once and three times and then damaged hair by changing the number of hair bleaching (twice with interval of 15 minutes). Each bleached hair was treated by five different kinds of shampoo (Control, Horse shampoo, DHA shampoo, EPA shampoo, Omega-3 shampoo mixture). Apart from this, EPA/DHA 2, 5, 8, 10 and 12% shampoo were prepared and treated to hair for comparing rate of progress in damaged hair. To quantify improved condition of damaged hair, we performed Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for ultrastructure of damaged hair fraction, measurement of thickness change and BCA Protein Assay for recovery rate of damaged hair. The moisture in hair was measured by Thermal analysis machine. In results, we observed the particle of hair surface damaged by bleaching treatment were well improved with treatment with EPA and DHA shampoo. Also, quantity of protein was lowered with higher concentration of EPA & DHA i.e., 8 and 12 % then compared with horse oil shampoo in three times treatment group. It shows that bleached hair have been recovered by treating rapidly and get protective coat. In conclusion, EPA and DHA shampoo improved damaged hair, especially with EPA / DHA 12% shampoo. Also, EPA shampoo could protect the damaged hair depending on increasing concentration of EPA. Therefore, we conclude omega-3 shampoo could make damaged hair protect and get healthy hair environment.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Gastrodia elata Blume (GEB), a traditional herbal medicine, has been used to treat a wide range of neurological disorders (e.g., paralysis and stroke) and skin problems (e.g., atopic dermatitis and eczema) in oriental medicine. This study was designed to investigate whether GEB extract inhibits melanogenesis activity in murine B16F10 melanoma. MATERIALS/METHOD: Murine B16F10 cells were treated with 0-5 mg/mL of GEB extract or $400{\mu}g/mL$ arbutin (a positive control) for 72 h after treatment with/without 200 nM alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (${\alpha}$-MSH) for 24 h. Melanin concentration, tyrosinase activity, mRNA levels, and protein expression of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein (Trp)1, and Trp2 were analyzed in ${\alpha}$-MSH-untreated and ${\alpha}$-MSH-treated B16F10 cells. RESULTS: Treatment with 200 nM ${\alpha}$-MSH induced almost 2-fold melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity along with increased mRNA levels and protein expression of MITF, tyrosinase, Trp1 and Trp2. Irrespective of ${\alpha}$-MSH stimulation, GEB extract at doses of 0.5-5 mg/mL inhibited all these markers for skin whitening in a dose-dependent manner. While lower doses (0.5-1 mg/mL) of GEB extract generally had a tendency to decrease melanogenesis, tyrosinase activity, and mRNA levels and protein expression of MITF, tyrosinase, Trp1, and Trp2, higher doses (2-5 mg/mL) significantly inhibited all these markers in ${\alpha}$-MSH-treated B16F10 cells in a dose-dependent manner. These inhibitory effects of the GEB extract at higher concentrations were similar to those of $400{\mu}g/mL$ arbutin, a well-known depigmenting agent. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that GEB displays dose-dependent inhibition of melanin synthesis through the suppression of tyrosinase activity as well as molecular levels of MITF, tyrosinase, Trp1, and Trp2 in murine B16F10 melanoma. Therefore, GEB may be an effective and natural skin-whitening agent for application in the cosmetic industry.

  • 알로에 베라(Aloe barbadensis Miller)는 예로부터 화상이나 상처, 습진 등의 다양한 피부 질환을 개선하기 위해 사용해 왔다. 이러한 효능은 알로에가 가지고 있는 비타민, 무기질, 당, 페놀 물질, 지방산. 아미노산 등의 다양한 성분에 의한 것으로 보고가 되었다. 알로에는 극한의 환경에서 스스로를 보호하기 위해서 성분을 변화시키며, 이로 인해 색깔이 녹색에서 적색으로 변화한다. Aloe-emodin은 알로에속 식물의 대표적인 페놀성 물질로 항산화 및 항염 활성을 나타낸다. 그러나 지금까지 알로에의 활성 물질인 알로에-에모딘을 증가시키고 알로에의 색상을 변화시키는 공정 개발에 대한 연구는 보고되지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 aloe-emodin 함량을 증가시키고 알로에의 항산화 및 항염 활성을 증대시키는 핑크 알로에 제조공정을 개발하는 것이다. 이를 위해 알로에를 적정 조건으로 가온한 결과 핑크 알로에는 일반 알로에 대비 aloe-emodin 함량이 증가하였으며, 항산화 활성 증대, NO 생성 억제, 세포 재생 촉진 등의 효과를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해 화장품 분야에서 핑크 알로에의 신규 항노화 소재로 활용성을 확인하였다.

  • Objective : Atopic dermatitis (AD) in children may profoundly affect the quality of life (QOL), and also cause financial burden, to the families of those suffering from this ailment. The aim of our study was to examine the quality of life and the financial burden of atopic dermatitis in children and their families to evaluate this relationship with the degree of AD. Methods : 37 infant and child atopic dermatitis patients were included and evaluated using the SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) Index and Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI). Patients and carers were asked to fill in the questionnaires about their quality of life and financial costs during the past year. Data about sleep disturbance and pruritus were also obtained. Pearson's correlation was used for statistical analysis. Results : 1. The mean score of Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) was $10.52{\pm}4.82$, Infants' Dermatologic Quality of Life (IDQOL) was $8.21{\pm}3.95$. 2. The mean score of Family Dermatology Life Quality Index (FDLQI) was $13.30{\pm}5.72$, Dermatitis Family Impact (DFI) was $12.5{\pm}4.98$. 3. By analyzing the questionnaire, the monthly average cost was determined to be 730,800 won for each patient : the direct cost was 283,500 won, and the indirect cost was 447,300 won. 4. By analyzing the correlation between the severity of AD and QOL, subjective SCORAD were significantly and positively correlated with QOL(IDQOL, FDLQI, DFI, CDLQI). 5. By analyzing the correlation between the severity of AD and any economic impact, EASI were significantly and positively correlated with the direct cost. Conclusion : The above results show that the QOL of the patients and carers is significantly related to their disease severity. Atopic dermatitis patients pay an average of 730,800 won a month, and the economic impact on the patients is significantly related to their disease severity. The CDLQI, IDQOL, FDLQI and DFImay potentially be of value to help in the appropriate management of AD and can be used as an added measurement in clinical trials involving AD management.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this study is to establish the basis of the assessment tools that can be used for the diagnosis and assessment of skin diseases by reviewing the present status of the assessment tools used in domestic and overseas traditional medicine papers for the past five years. Methods : This study is based on analysis of papers on clinical trials about atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, urticaria published from 1st July 2013 to 30th June 2018. The papers were searched from Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System(OASIS), Korean Traditional Knowledge Portal(KTKP), Pubmed, MEDLINE. Results : 40 articles on atopic dermatitis, 34 articles on psoriasis, 26 articles on acne and 10 articles on urticaria were selected. Among them, 38 articles(90%), 20 articles(85%), 22 articles(85%) and 5 articles(50%) used assessment tools in order. Conclusions : SCoring Atopic Dermatitis(SCORAD), objective SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis index(OSI), Eczema Area and Severity Index(EASI) were used in studies on atopic dermatitis. In the case of psoriasis, The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index(PASI) was used in most papers. In the study on acne, most of Korean papers used Korean Acne Grading System(KAGS), but in the overseas papers, various assessment tools were used. In the case of urticaria, the rate of use of the assessment tool was the lowest, but the assessment tool used was unified by Urticaria Activity Score(UAS). Since skin diseases can cause stress and a decrease in quality of life, the quality of life should be taken into account when evaluating treatment effects.
