  • 콩은 항에스트로젠효과와 항암효과를 가지는 것으로 나타나 최근 많은 관심의 대상이 되고 있다. 콩의 전립선암과 유방암 억제 기작으로 항에스트로젠 효과와 항안드로젠 효과가 보고되었지만 다른 조직에서 발현되는 항암활성 특히 화학적으로 유도되는 발암의 억제기작에 대해서는 아직 분명히 밝혀진 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 콩이 생식기관이외에도 항암활성을 나타내리라 가정하고 그 기작을 규명하고자 하였다. 콩의 메탄올추추출물의 산가수분해물은 생쥐의 폐에서 항암효소계인 quinone reductase의 활성을 유의적으로 증가시켰으며 신장과 소장에서 1상효소계의 지표효소인 arylhydrocarbon hydroxylase효소활성을 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 메탄올 추출물에 배당체로 존재하는 화합물이 산처리에 의하여 유리형으로 전환되면서 화학적 발암을 억제하는 활성을 획득하는 것으로 추정된다. 한편 benzo(a)pyrene으로 위암과 폐암을 유발시켰을 때, 콩추출물 첨가 식이는 폐암 발생을 현저히 낮추는 것으로 확인되었다. 이렇듯 화학적발암에 대한 콩 추출물의 방어효과는 약물대사효소계의 조절과 관련이 있는 것으로 추정된다.

  • Induction of NAD(P)H : (quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase (QR) which obligatory two electron reduction of quinones and prevents their participation in oxidative cycling and thereby the depletion of intracellular glutathione, has been used as a marker for chemopreventive agents. We postulated that vitamin E, an antioxidant, which induces QR as the gene of QR was reported to contain antioxidant reponsive element in the 5'-flanking region. Vitamin E resulted in significant induction of QR in both hepalclc7 cells and mouse tissues. QR induction was observed; to be maximal at 25uM vitamin E for hepalclc7 cells while it was maximal in the level of 2.5∼5 μmoles vitamin E/㎏ BW for mouse tissues. Thus the cancer-preventive effect of vitamin E may be exerted by it induction of intracellular detoxifying enzymes.

  • NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (quinone reductase: QR: EC1.6.99.2), a cytosolic FAD-containing flavoprotein, form one of the important component of the phase II drug-metabolizing enzyme systems. It is found in all mammalian species tested and is expressed in many organs including the liver. QR catalyses two-electron reduction of qui nones to hydroquinones thereby suppresses the formation of superoxide anion radical. (omitted)

  • The effect of an extract of Dalbergiae Lignum and four components that were isolated from the extract on the anticarcinogenic phase II marker enzyme, quinone reductase (QR), was investi-gated. Of the solvent extracts of Dalbergiae Lignum, the CH$_2$CI$_2$ fraction was the most potent in inducing QR activity, with a CD value (the concentration required to double the QR activity) of 29.5 $\mu$/mL. The CH$_2$CI$_2$ extract was further separated into six compounds, four of which were identified as 4-methoxydalbergione, latifolin, 4',6-dihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone, and obtusafu-ran. Obtusafuran [CD = 1.1 $\mu$M; chemopreventive index (CI) = 101.9] and latifolin (CD = 1.7 $\mu$M; CI = 154.6) displayed potent QR inducing activity and high chemopreventive indices. Lati-folin and 4-methoxydalbergione were identified as strong DPPH-scavengers with half-maximal free radical scavenging concentrations of 15.9 and 17.2 $\mu$M, respectively.

  • In order to find novel cancer chemopreventive agents, quinone reductase (QR) inductive activity of methanol extract of herbal medicines was examined using murine hepatoma, hepa1c1c7 cells. QR has been used as an anticarcinogenic marker enzyme in cancer chemoprevention study. The methanol extract of Alpinia officinarum (Zingiberace) showed showed significantly strong quinone reductase inductive activity compared to the control group. The methanol extract of Alpinia officinarum was successively fractionated with various solvents according to polarity. Hexane, ethyl acetate, buthanol and water fractions were obtained and theirs activities were assessed. The QR inductive effect was moved to the ethyl acetate fraction and was highly increased. The CD (concentration required to double the specific activity of QR) value of ethyl acetate fraction was 8.6 ${\mu}g/mL$. Alpinia officinarum also showed strong antioxidant activity. These results suggest that Alpinia officinarum can be developed as cancer chemopreventive agent.

  • Abstract The cancer chemopreventive potential of chitosanoligosaccharides was investigated by measuring the induction of quinone reductase and glutathione S-transferase activities and inhibition of cytochrome P450 1A1, 2B1, and 2E1 activities. Chitosanoligosaccharide I (1-${\kappa}$Da${\kappa}$Da) significantly induced glutathione S-transferase activity with a maximal 1.5-fold increase at 500 ${\mu}$g/ml, while chitosanoligosaccharide II (3-${\kappa}$Da${\kappa}$Da) (500 ${\mu}$g/ml) strongly induced quinone reductase (p<0.01) and glutathione S-transferase (p<0.005) activities. The in vitro incubation of rat liver microsomes with chitosanoligosaccharides I and II (2.5, 5, 50, and 500 ${\mu}$g/ml) showed a dose-dependent inhibiton of cytochrome P450 1A1, 2B1, and 2E1 activities. Chitosanoligosaccharide II was a more potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 2B1 activity than chitosanoligosaccharide I. Accordingly, these findings suggest that chitosanoligosaccharides are potential chemopreventive agents.

  • 소 간으로부터 퀴논 환원효소를 정제하였으며 정제된 효소는 벤조퀴논과 나프토퀴논 뿐만 아니라 페난트렌 퀴논의 환원도 촉매하였다. 소 간으로부터 정제된 퀴논 환원 효소는 아릴니트로소 화합물의 생변환을 촉매하였으며 반응 생성물은 TLC, GC, GC-MS, NMR을 사용하여 확인되었다. 이 반응은 포유동물 퀴논 환원효소의 강력한 저해제인 Cibacron blue 3GA나 dicumarol에 의하여 크게 저해되었다.

  • 이물질(xenobiotics) 대사에 관여하는 간장 microsome과 cytosol 효소 활성에 indole, indole-3-carbinol 및 benzofuran이 미치는 영향을 검색하기위하여 마우스에 이들 약물을 각각 5 mmole/kg씩 10일간 투여하여 다음 몇 가지의 성적을 얻었다. Benzofuran은 microsome 효소인 aniline hydroxylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, p-nitrophenol UDPGA-transferase, epoxide hydrolase와 cytosol 효소인 glutathione S-tranferase, NADH : quinone reductase, UDP-glucose dehydrogenase의 활성도를 증가시켰다. 그러나 benzofuran과는 구조적으로 furan ring내의 N원소가 O원소로 치환되었을 뿐 주된 구조가 유사한 indole과 indole-3-carbinol 투여로는 UDPGA-transferase와 NADH: quinone reductase의 활성도 증가를 볼 수 없었으며, 특히 indole은 NADPH : cytochrome C reductase만을 증가시킨데 비하여 구조상 indole에 carbinol (methanol)기가 붙은 indole-3-carbinol은 수종의 mixed function oxidase와 아울러 특히 epoxide hydrolase의 활성도 역시 증가시켰다. 이러한 결과는 benzofuran과 indole-3-carbinol에 의한 epoxide hydrolase 활성도 증가의 기전의 일부를 설명할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
