목 적 : 소아 천식이 급격히 증가하고 있다. 영유아 시기의 천명을 보이는 환아들에서 천식 발생을 예측할 수 있는 고위험군을 선별하는 지표들이 알려져 있다. 저자들은 Tucson Children's Respiratory Study Group에서 제시한 천식 예측 지표 API와 변형한 천식 예측 지표 mAPI를 한국 영유아 천명 환아들에게 적용하여 의미있는 예측 지표를 규명하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 반복성 천명을 주소로 서울아산병원 소아과를 방문한 262명의 환아들을 대상으로 API와 mAPI를 적용하여 고위험군과 저위험군으로 나누었다. 각 군에서 알레르기 지표 뿐만 아니라 환아와 가족들의 알레르기 질환의 병력을 조사하였다. 결 과 : API 고위험군 환아(n=131)는 저위험군 환아(n=131) 보다 성별은 차이가 없었고 연령, 총호산구수, 호산구 비율, 혈중 ECP, 총 IgE가 높았으며, 흔한 항원에 대한 감작 여부가 포함되지 않았지만 흡입항원과 식품항원에 대한 감작률이 더 높게 나타났다. mAPI 고위험군 환아(n=141)는 저위험군 환아(n=121) 보다 총호산구수, 호산구 비율, 혈중 ECP, 총 IgE, egg, milk, D.p-, D.f-특이 IgE 농도가 높았으며 성별과 연령의 차이는 없었다. 위험군별 다변량 분석에서는 API군에서는 흡입항원에 대한 감작 여부가 고위험군을 결정하는 유의한 지표로 나타났으며 mAPI군에서는 혈중 ECP 농도가 유의한 지표로 나타났다. 대상군 중 6세 이상 추적 관찰된 환아는 모두 29명이었으며 최근 1년간 천명의 병력이 확인되고 임상적으로 천식으로 진단된 환아는 15명이었다. API의 민감도, 특이도, 양성예측률, 음성예측률은 66.7%, 50.0%, 58.8%, 58.3%이었으며, mAPI는 93.3%, 57.1%, 70.0%, 88.9%로서 mAPI가 더 높았다. 결 론 : API와 mAPI를 적용한 고위험군 환아에서 흔한 흡입 항원과 식품항원에 대한 감작률이 높아서, 영유아 천명 환아에서 주관적인 증상에 의한 진단보다는 객관적인 흡입항원과 식품항원에 대한 감작 여부를 지표로 사용하는 것이 더 의미 있을 것으로 생각한다. 또한 한국 영유아 천명 환아에서는 mAPI가 소아 천식의 발생을 예측하는데 더 도움이 될 것으로 생각한다. 그러나 본 연구는 29명의 소수의 환아들만 추적 관찰된 결과이므로 이후로 보다 더 많은 환아들을 추적 관찰하는 것이 필요할 것이다.

Allergic asthma is a chronic pulmonary inflammatory disease characterized by reversible airway obstruction, hyperresponsiveness and eosinophils infiltration. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) signaling are closely associated with asthma and have emerged as a novel therapeutic target in allergic disease. The functions of TLR3 and TLR4 in allergic airway inflammation have been studied; however, the precise role of TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-${\beta}$ (TRIF), the adaptor molecule for both TLR3 and TLR4, is not yet fully understood. To investigate this, we developed a mouse model of OVA-induced allergic airway inflammation and compared the severity of allergic airway inflammation in WT and $TRIF^-/^-$ mice. Histopathological assessment revealed that the severity of inflammation in airway inflammation in TRIF-deficient mice was comparable to that in WT mice. The total number of cells recovered from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid did not differ between WT and TRIF-deficient mice. Moreover, TRIF deficiency did not affect Th1 and Th2 cytokine production in lung tissue nor the level of serum OVA-specific IgE, $IgG_1$ and $IgG_{2c}$. These findings suggest that TRIF-mediated signaling may not be critical for the development of allergic airway inflammation.

기니픽과 New Zealand White Rabbit에서 PDT-Hepa에 대한 항원성 시험을 실시하였다. 1) Active Systemic Anaphylaxis (ASA), 2) Passive Systemic Anaphylaxis (PSA), 3) Passive Custaneous Anaphylaxis (PCA) 시험을 실시한 결과 ASA, PSA 실험에서 anaphylaxis와 관련된 어떠한 특이적인 임상증상도 나타나지 않아 PDT-Hepa는 기니픽과 토끼에서 항원성이 없는 것으로 보인다. 또한 PCA 실험에서 청색반점이 관찰되지 않은 것으로 보아 PDT-Hepa specific IgE는 생성되지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

We have reported that water-extracted Korean mistletoe (KM-110) had various biological activities such as antitumor and immunomodulatory activity, and the pectin fraction (KML-C) of the extract was one of major factors related to its biological functions. In this paper, we produced murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) against KML-C. The cAbs obtained were largely classified into two groups according to specificity to KML-C and ML-I, a pectin from European mistletoe. One group mAbs (9H7-D10 and 3C2-lH4) strongly reacted with KML-C, but not ML-I. In contrast, another group cAbs (8Bll-2C5, BE12-3E9 and 5E10-Fl) reacted with both KML-C and ML-1. The subisotypes of these mobs were shown to be IgGl (9H7-lD10, 3C2-lH4 and 8Bll-2C5) or IgM (8E12-3E9 and 5E10-Fl). To develop an assay system for determination of the amount of KML-C, we established the sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) method using these mAbs and horse radish peroxidase (HRP)-labelled cAbs. In various combinations of the cAbs for coated antibody and detection antibody, the sandwich ELISA quantitatively detected KML-C, showing the detection limit ranging from 7-5,000 ng/ml. Especially reproducibility (C.V) of the sandwich ELISA, in which 8E12-3E9 was used for coating antibody and 8Bll-2C5-HRP for detection antibody, was 4.59-5.83 in intra assay, and 3.9-9.4 in inter assay.

Gut microbiota produce dietary metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids, which exhibit anti-inflammatory effects. Free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2, formerly known as GPR43) is a specific receptor for short-chain fatty acids, such as acetate that regulates inflammatory responses. However, the therapeutic potential of FFA2 agonists for treatment of atopic dermatitis has not been investigated. We investigated the efficacy of the FFA2 agonist, 4-chloro-α-(1-methylethyl)-N-2-thiazoylylbenzeneacetanilide (4-CMTB), for treatment of atopic dermatitis induced by 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB). Long-term application of DNCB to the ears of mice resulted in significantly increased IgE in the serum, and induced atopic dermatitis-like skin lesions, characterized by mast cell accumulation and skin tissue hypertrophy. Treatment with 4-CMTB (10 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly suppressed DNCB-induced changes in IgE levels, ear skin hypertrophy, and mast cell accumulation. Treatment with 4-CMTB reduced DNCB-induced increases in Th2 cytokine (IL-4 and IL-13) levels in the ears, but did not alter Th1 or Th17 cytokine (IFN-γ and IL-17) levels. Furthermore, 4-CMTB blocked DNCB-induced lymph node enlargement. In conclusion, activation of FFA2 ameliorated DNCB-induced atopic dermatitis, which suggested that FFA2 is a therapeutic target for atopic dermatitis.

This study was undertaken to develop a subacute murine model for predicting occurrence of systemic anaphylaxis and to evaluate efficacy of various immunological parameters as the monitoring indices for the occurrence of anaphyalxis. The murine anaphyalxis model was developed through intraperitoneally sensitizing 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$ ovalbumin (OVA) in the presence of 1 mg alum and 300 ng cholera toxin twice a week interval followed by challenging 500 $\mu\textrm{g}$. OVA intravenously. Typical anaphylaxis symptoms were demonstrated at the both BALB/c mice, a strain prone to type-2 response, and C57BL/6 mice. a strain prone to type-1 response. Level of plasma histamine was approximately 50-fold or 30-fold higher in the mice sensitized with OVA than the mice sensitized with alum plus cholera toxin or the saline-treated mice after OVA challenge, respectively. Sensitization and challenge with OVA significantly enhanced plasma leukotriene $B_4$ level but not IgE levels in comparison with the control mice, which indicated the role of leukotriene $B_4$ for progression of anaphyalxis. Furthermore, among mice suffered from anaphylaxis, levels of OVA-specific IgGl were significantly higher in the BALB/c mice than in the C57BL/6 mice, which implied the genetic susceptibility for the induction of systemic anaphylaxis. Conclusively, simultaneous evaluation of histamine, leukotriene $B_4$, and allergen-specific IgG isotype may serve as more efficient monitoring tool for vaccine-related anaphyalxis.

$CheongGiGeoYangTang$ has been used for anti-allergenic purpose. However there was no experimental study about its effect. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate the anti-allergenic effect of $CheongGiGeoYangTang$. Methods Modifiability of RBL-2H3 mast cells' IL-4, IL-13 was analyzed by qRT-PCR and ELISA. Also, the suppressive effect of GATA-1, GATA-2, NF-AT1, NF-AT2, AP-1 and NF-${\kappa}B$ p65 transcription factors was observed by western blotting. OVA-specific IgE, IL-4 and IL-13 production in ovalbumin allergy model was examined as well. Results It was showed that the RBL-2H3 mast cells treated with $CheongGiGeoYangTang$ extract(CGGYT) was significantly suppressed mRNA expression, production of IL-4 and IL-13, and prominently inhibited the expression of transcription factors including GATA-1, GATA-2, NFAT-1, NFAT-2, c-Fos and NF-${\kappa}B$ p65 but not c-Jun. The administration of CGGYT was suppressed the amount of OVA-specific IgE, IL-4 and IL-13 in OVA/alum-sensitized mice. Conclusions We considered CGGYT would regulate the allergic inflammation as inhibition of IL-4 and IL-13 production in activated mast cells and Th2 cells.

Objectives : We aimed to determine therapeutic effects of probiotics-fermented Magnolia denudata(MD) in the allergic rhinitis model mice. Methods : Polyphenol production, DPPH radical scavenging activity and NO inhibition of fermented MD by different bacterial strains were evaluated to select the one that is most suitable for fermentation. Thirty C57BL/6 mice were divided randomly into 5 groups as follows: normal group, ovalbumin(OVA)-treated plus water fed(CON group), OVA-treated plus unfermented MD fed(UMD group), OVA-treated plus fermented autoclaved MD fed(A-FMD group) and OVA-treated plus fermented unautoclaved MD fed(FMD group). After 9 weeks, we observed changes in the blood cell count, OVA-specific IgE level, nasal rubbing, nasal mucosal tissue and body weight. Results : Extract of MD fermented by Bifidobacterium breve(BB) for 48 hours showed the highest anti-oxidant activity and anti-inflammatory activity out of all the other bacterial strains. The number of eosinophil count in A-FMD, FMD group and platelet count in FMD group showed statistically significant decrease(p<0.05). OVA-specific IgE level decreased in all 3 experimental groups, significantly in UMD and A-FMD group. Nasal symptoms were attenuated in all 3 experimental groups, statistically significant in A-FMD and FMD group (p<0.05). Histologically, infiltration of eosinophils into the nasal mucosa decreased in all 3 experimental groups, especially marked decrease in FMD group. Conclusions : According to the above results, it is considered that probiotics-fermented Magnolia denudata has inhibitory effects on the allergic rhinitis animal models.
