본 연구에서는 가압증숙 산수유의 이화학적 품질특성 변화를 모니터링 하였고, 폐 표피세포 보호 효과에 대해 알아보기 위하여 인간유래 L132 세포주를 이용하여 과산화수소로 유도된 산화 스트레스 모델에서 가압증숙 산수유 추출물의 세포 사멸 억제 효과를 확인하였다. 색도에서 명도를 나타내는 L값은 무처리 산수유 분말에서 42.75로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 대조군에 비해 가압증숙 시간이 증가할수록 L값은 유의적으로 감소하였다. 적색도(a값) 및 황색도(b값) 역시 이와 유사한 경향을 나타내었는데, 외형을 살펴보면 2시간 이상 가압증숙 시 색이 검게 변하고 광택이 없어지는 경향을 나타내었다. 2시간 동안 가압증숙 시 총 당, 환원당 및 총 페놀 함량변화를 측정한 결과, 각각 468.53 mg/g, 385.55 mg/g 및 37.32 mg/g으로 나타났다. 유리당 조성은 fructose, glucose 및 sucrose 순이었으며, 2시간 동안 가압증숙 시 각각 207.72 mg/g, 219.40 mg/g 및 4.31 mg/g으로 낮은 함량을 나타내었다. 페놀화합물인 gallic acid 및 furan 화합물인 5-HMF는 대조군에 비해 가압증숙 시간이 증가할수록 함량이 유의적으로 높아짐을 확인하였으며(P<0.05), iridoid 배당체 조성은 morroniside, loganin 및 loganic acid 순으로 함유하고 있었고 2시간 동안 가압증숙 시 다소 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 과산화수소에 의해 유도된 산화적 세포 사멸에 대한 추출물의 보호 효과를 확인하기 위해 가압증숙 산수유 추출물의 L132 세포 독성을 확인한 결과 $1,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도까지 유의적으로 세포 사멸이 나타나지 않아 세포독성이 없음을 확인할 수 있었다. L132 세포 사멸에 대한 보호 효과는 모든 시료에서 1 mM $H_2O_2$를 첨가한 군과 비교하여 활성이 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 특히 2시간 동안 가압증숙한 산수유 추출물을 $1,000{\mu}g/mL$ 농도로 첨가하였을 때 102.82%로 활성이 가장 크게 증가하여 과산화수소에 의해 유도된 산화적 세포 사멸에 대한 높은 세포 보호 효과를 나타냄을 확인하였다.

Caryopteris incana (Verbenaceae) has been used to treat cough, arthritis, and eczema in Oriental medicine. The two fractions ($CHCl_3-$ and BuOH fractions) and the essential oil of the plant material were subjected to the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) assay. The $IC_{50}$ of the $CHCl_3$ fraction and the essential oil on LPS-induced macrophage RAW 264.7 cells were $16.4{\mu}g/mL$ and $23.08{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. On gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectroscopy (MS) analysis, twenty-five components representing 85.5% amount of total essential oil were identified. On the chromatogram, three main substances, trans-pinocarveol, cis-citral, and pinocarvone, occupied 18.8%, 13.5% and 18.37% of total peak area. Furthermore, by HPLC-UV analysis, six compounds including one iridoid (8-O-acetylharpagide)- and five phenylethanoid glycosides (caryopteroside, acteoside, phlinoside A, 6-O-caffeoylphlinoside, and leucosceptoside A) isolated from the BuOH fraction were quantified. The content of six compounds were shown as the following order: caryopteroside (162.35 mg/g) > 8-O-acetylharpagide (93.28 mg/g) > 6-O-caffeoylphlinoside (28.15 mg/g) > phlinoside (22.60 mg/g) > leucosceptoside A (16.87 mg) > acteoside (7.05 mg/g).

Objectives : Iridoid glycoside, swertiamarin is a well known bioactive component found in Swertia japonica Makino (SJ). In this study, we tried to optimize a suitable method which would extract swertiamarin effectively. Methods : Extraction of SJ was carried out by various conditions of time (5 - 60 min), temperature ($30-70^{\circ}C$), solvent (from non-polar to polar), and ratio of solvnet / sample (10 : 1 - 40 : 1) using ultrasonic extractor. Swertiamarin in SJ extracts was quantified by high performance liquid chromatography - Phtodiode array detector (HPLC-PDA) using C18 column and the analytical procedure was validated by evaluation of specificity, range, linearity, accuracy (recovery), precision (intra- and inter day variability), limit of detection (LOD), and limit of quantification (LOQ). Results : An efficient extraction condition for swertiamarin in SJ was optimized using sonicator extraction (temperature $40^{\circ}C$, solvent 20% methanol, solvent / sample (20 : 1), and time 10 min. Analytical procedure was optimized by HPLC-PDA using isocratic solvent system of acetonitrile and water (9 : 91), and the method was validated in regard to linearity (correlation coefficient, $R^2$ > 0.9999), range ($50-1000{\mu}g/mL$), intra- and inter-precision (RSD < 5.0 %), and recovery (99 -103 %). LOD and LOQ were 0.051 and $0.155{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Conclusion : An optimized method of extraction for swertiamarin in SJ was established through conditions of diverse extraction and the validation result indicated that the method is suited for the determination of swertiamarin in SJ.

우리 나라에서 오랫동안 식용 및 황색 색소원으로 이용되어 온 치자(Gardenia jasminoides)열매로부터 iridoid glycoside인 geniposide를 분리, 정제한 후 ${\beta}-glucosidase$로 가수분해하여 얻은 genipin을 glycine, alanine, histidine, lysine, phenylalanine, glutamate 등 여섯 종류의 아미노산과 반응시켜 수용성 치자청색소로 전환되는 과정을 규명하였다. Genipin이 아미노산과 반응하여 청색소가 되는 과정에서 pH의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 여러 pH에서 반응을 시켜본 결과 청색소 생성의 최적조건은 pH 7.0 이었고, pH 3.0 조건에서는 청색소가 전혀 생성되지 않았으며, pH 12.0 조건에서는 미량의 청색소만 생성되었다. 아미노산의 종류에 따라서도 청색소 생성량 및 색감에 차이가 있었는데 $Iysine({\lambda}_{max}=573\;nm),\;glycine({\lambda}_{max}=595 \;nm),\;phenylalanine({\lambda}_{max}=602\;nm),\;alanine({\lambda}_{max}=595\;nm)$에 비해 $histidine({\lambda}_{max}=601\;nm)$과 $glutamate({\lambda}_{max}=601\;nm)$의 경우에는 비교적 적은 양의 청색소가 생성되었다. 청색소 생성 속도상수를 여러 온도$(60,\;70,\;80,\;90^{\circ}C,\;pH\;7.0\;phosphate$ 완충용액)에서 구하였는데, 염기성 아미노산이 중성 및 산성 아미노산에 비해 생성속도가 빨랐다. 이들 값으로부터 Arrhenius 활성화에너지를 계산한 결과 $glycine(E_A=9.8\;kcal/mol)$이 다른 아미노산$(E_A=13.3{\sim}15.4\;kcal/mol)$에 비해 특히 작은 값의 활성화에너지를 나타내었다.

Objectives : The use of natural products with therapeutic properties is as ancient as human civilisation and, for a long time, mineral, plant and animal products were the main sources of drugs. Catalposide, the major iridoid glycoside isolated from the stem bark of Catalpa ovata G. Don (Bignoniceae) has been shown to possess anti-microbial and anti-tumoral properties. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a stress response protein and is known to play a protective role against the oxidative injury. In this study, we examined whether catalposide could protect Neuro 2A cells, a kind of neuronal cell lines, from oxidative damage through the induction of HO-1 protein expression and HO activity. We also examined the effects of catalposide on the productions of tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}\;(TNF-{\alpha})$ and nitric oxide (NO) on RAW 264.7 macrophages activated with the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide. Methods : HO-1 expression in Neuro 2A cells was measured by Western blotting analysis. NO and $TNF--{\alpha}$ produced by RAW 264.7 macrophage were measured by Griess reagent and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Results : The treatment of the cells with catalposide resulted in dose- and time-dependent up-regulations of both HO-1 protein expression and HO activity. Catalposide protected the cells from hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death. The protective effect of catalposide on hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death was abrogated by zinc protoporphyrin IX, a HO inhibitor. Additional experiments revealed the involvement of CO in the cytoprotective effect of catalposide-induced HO-1. In addition, catalposide inhibited the productions of $TNF--{\alpha}$ and NO with significant decreases in mRNA levels of $TNF--{\alpha}$ and inducible NO synthase. Conclusions : Our results indicate that catalposide is a potent inducer of HO-1 and HO-1 induction is responsible for the catalposide-mediated cytoprotection against oxidative damage and that catalposide may have therapeutic potential in the control of inflammatory disorders.

Oxidative stress contributes to the onset of chronic diseases in various organs, including muscles. Morroniside, a type of iridoid glycoside contained in Cornus officinalis, is reported to have advantages as a natural compound that prevents various diseases. However, the question of whether this phytochemical exerts any inhibitory effect against oxidative stress in muscle cells has not been well reported. Therefore, the current study aimed to evaluate whether morroniside can protect against oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) in murine C2C12 myoblasts. Our results demonstrate that morroniside pretreatment was able to inhibit cytotoxicity while suppressing H₂O₂-induced DNA damage and apoptosis. Morroniside also significantly improved the antioxidant capacity in H₂O₂-challenged C2C12 cells by blocking the production of cellular reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial superoxide and increasing glutathione production. In addition, H₂O₂-induced mitochondrial damage and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress were effectively attenuated by morroniside pretreatment, inhibiting cytoplasmic leakage of cytochrome c and expression of ER stress-related proteins. Furthermore, morroniside neutralized H₂O₂-mediated calcium (Ca²⁺) overload in mitochondria and mitigated the expression of calpains, cytosolic Ca²⁺-dependent proteases. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that morroniside protected against mitochondrial impairment and Ca²⁺-mediated ER stress by minimizing oxidative stress, thereby inhibiting H₂O₂-induced cytotoxicity in C2C12 myoblasts.
