비만은 이제 선진국 뿐만 아니라 개발도상국에서도 가장 문제가 되는 대사성 질환이다. 최근 치료보다는 예방에 중점을 두는 예방의학 시대가 도래함에 따라, 인슐린 저항성 비만과 당뇨병 등의 대사 증후군을 예방하기 위한 천연물들이 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 특히, 베타글루칸은 면역계와 혈중 콜레스테롤 조절에 이로운 효과가 있는 것으로 알려져 있지만 비만에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 완전히 밝혀지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 β-1,3/1,6-glucan의 함량이 전체 글루칸 함량의 90% 이상 되는 자체 개발 흑효모 균주 SM-2001 추출물(폴리칸)이 3T3-L1 지방전구세포의 지방세포 분화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 폴리칸은 지방전구세포에서 지방축적과 GPDH 효소 활성을 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 폴리칸이 세포 내에서 지방의 축적을 조절하는 전사인자인 PPARγ와 C/EBPα의 하향조절과 세포 내 에너지 센서 역할을 하는 AMPK 효소의 인산화를 유도함으로써 항비만 효과를 발현하는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구를 통해 폴리칸의 항비만 효과를 확인하였으며, 향후 비만과 대사성 질환을 예방할 수 있는 식의약 소재로써 그 활용가치를 더욱 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 연구는 retinoic acid(RA)가 돼지지방전구세포의 분화와 유전자 발현에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해서 수행하였다. 지방전구세포는 갓난 돼지의 등지방에서 분리했으며 RA는 배양중인 세포에 4일 동안 처리하였다. 배양중인 세포에서 RNA를 추출한 후 14,688개의 유전자가 부착되어 있는 cDNA microarray와 혼성화 하여 유전자 발현 양상을 분석하였다. 지방전구세포의 분화는 GPDH의 활성도에 의해 측정했다. RA는 돼지지방전구세포의 분화를 78% 억제했다. Retinoic acid 처리에 의해 지질 대사에 관계된 유전자를 포함하여 특히 sphin- gomyelin phosphodiesterase, apolipoprotein R precursor, growth factor receptor-bound protein 14, retinoic receptor RXR gamma의 발현이 증가 되었다. 그리고 세포 성장에 중요 역할을 하는 vascular endothelial growth factor D precursor, growth hormone receptor precursor의 유전자의 발현이 감소되었다. 이러한 결과는, RA가 성장촉진인자 또는 성장호르몬 수용체의 조절을 통해서 돼지 지방전구세포의 분화를 억제함을 나타낸다.

본 연구는 insulin-like growth factors(IGFs)가 돼지 지방전구세포의 증식과 분화에 미치는 작용기전을 구명하기 위해서 수행하였다. 지방전구세포는 갓난 암퇘지의 등지방에서 분리하였고, serum-deprived 조건하에서 IGFs와 mutant IGFs를 함유시켜 배양했는데 이 mutant IGFs는 IGF-Ⅰ에 비해 type-1 IGF receptor와 insulin receptor에 대한 친화력이 낮다. 50ng/ml의 IGF-Ⅰ, [Leu60]IGF-I, IGF-Ⅱ 및 [Leu27]IGF-Ⅱ를 배양중인 세포에 4일동안 처리했다. IGF-Ⅰ, [Leu60]IGF-I, IGF-Ⅱ 및 [Leu27]IGF-Ⅱ는 돼지 지방전구세포의 증식을 각각 39%, 8%, 25% 및 2% 촉진했다(증가된 세포수에 의해 측정). 이 사실은 IGF-Ⅰ과 IGF-Ⅱ는 type-1 IGF receptor 또는 insulin receptor에 결합을 통해서 지방세포의 증식 촉진을 가져왔음을 나타낸다. 그리고 IGF-Ⅰ, [Leu60]IGF-I, IGF-Ⅱ 및 [Leu27] IGF-Ⅱ는 지방전구세포의 분화를 50%, 17%, 37% 및 30% 각각 촉진시켰다(세포 분화는 glycerol- phosphate dehydrogenase 활성도에 의해 측정했다). IGF-Ⅰ의 type-1 IGF receptor 또는 insulin receptor에의 친화력이 낮아져서 세포 분화 촉진작용을 감소시킨 것이다. 그러나 [Leu27] IGF-Ⅱ의 분화촉진 작용은 IGF-Ⅱ의 그것에 비해 크게 차이가 나지 않았는데, 이 사실은 IGF-Ⅰ과 IGF-Ⅱ는 서로 다른 수용체－매개 작용기전에 의해 세포분화를 촉진시킴을 나타낸다. 즉 IGF-Ⅱ는 type-1 IGF receptor 또는 insulin receptor가 관여하지 않는 작용을 통해 돼지 지방전구세포의 분화를 촉진시켰다. 이 작용은 IGF-Ⅱ가 type-2 IGF receptor(또는 cation- independent mannose-6 phosphate receptor [CIM6P /IGF2 receptor])에 결합을 통해서 이뤄지는 것으로 여겨진다. 위의 결과는 IGF-Ⅱ가 CIM6P/ IGF2 receptor에의 결합을 통해 동물 지방전구세포의 분화를 촉진시킨다는 것을 밝혀낸 최초의 연구이다. 요약하면 이 본 연구는 IGF-Ⅰ과 IGF-Ⅱ는 서로 다른 세포내 receptor가 관여하는 작용기전을 통해 돼지 지방전구세포의 분화를 촉진함을 보여준다.

Objectives : The present study aimed to investigate the pharmacological activity of water and ethanol (EtOH) extracts from Socheongnyong-tang (SCNT) on inflammation and its related disease. Methods : The cells were treated with nontoxic concentrations of water and EtOH extract from SCNT in BEAS-2B, HaCaT, RAW 264.7 and 3T3-L1 cells. These cells were stimulated by tumor necrosis facter (TNF)-${\alpha}$, TNF-${\alpha}$/interferon (IFN)-${\gamma}$, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), respectively. 3T3-L1 cells were differentiated by insulin. After incubation, supernatant were collected and biological indicator measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results : Our results indicate that the water and EtOH extract of SCNT significantly inhibited the production of regulated on activation normal T-cell expression and secreted (RANTES) by treatment of TNF-${\alpha}$ in BEAS-2B cell, and significantly reduced the production of RANTES and macrophage-derived chemokine increased by treatment of TNF-${\alpha}$/IFN-${\gamma}$ in HaCaT cell. Moreover, those extracts significantly decreased the activity of nitric oxide and prostaglandin $E_2$ in LPS-induced RAW 264.7, and significantly inhibited the increased activity of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and expression of leptin induced by differentiation in 3T3-L1 cell. Conclusions : These results indicate that both water and EtOH extract of SCNT has powerful effects on inflammation and its related disease. Therefore, SCNT can be developed as a potential pharmacological agent related various diseases. Although the significant effects were observed in both SCNT water and EtOH extract, the EtOH extract was more effective on most experiments than its water extract. Taken together, these findings indicate that the SCNT EtOH extract may have more potential pharmacological agent.

In order to investigate anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-obesity activities of Samchulkunbi-tang (SCT; Shen zhu jian pi-tang) water and 70% ethanol (EtOH) extracts, in vitro inhibitory activities against nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin $E_2$ $PGE_2$), interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$ production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells, and macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC/CCL22) and regulated on activation of normal T-cell-expressed and -secreted (RANTES/CCL5) production in TNF-${\alpha}$/interferon-${\gamma}$-stimulated HaCaT and BEAS-2B cells as well as glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity and leptin production in 3T3-L1 cells were determined. A HPLC was used for quantification of the seven marker components (albiflorin, paeoniflorin, liquiritin, naringin, hesperidin, poncirin and glycyrrhizin) of SCT water and 70% EtOH extracts. SCT showed inhibitory effects against MDC and RANTES production in HaCaT cells, as well as RANTES production in BEAS-2B cells. In addition, SCT reduced not only NO, $PGE_2$, IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ production in RAW 264.7 cells, but also GPDH activity and leptin production in 3T3-L1 cells. Furthermore, the biological activities and the contents of six compounds (except paeoniflorin) were higher in 70% EtOH extract than water extract. These results suggest that SCT has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-obesity activities. These efficacies of 70% EtOH extract are relatively higher than that of water extract.
