본 연구는 배양 C6 glioma 세포를 대상으로 초산납(lead acetate, LA)의 신경독성을 알아보았으며, 또한 LA의 세포독성에 대한 지금초(Euphorbiae humifusae L., EH) 추출물의 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서, LA는 대조군에 비하여 농도 의존적으로 세포 생존율이 감소됨으로서 신경독성을 보였으며, $0{\sim}50{\mu}M$의 LA가 각각 포함된 배양액에서 72시간 동안 세포를 처리한 결과, $XTT_{50}$ 값은 $38.6{\mu}M$로 고독성인 것으로 나타났다. 또한, $30{\sim}50{\mu}M$의 LA가 각각 포함된 배양액에서 72시간 동안 세포를 처리한 결과 $XTT_{50}$은 $38.6{\mu}M$에서 나타났다. 이와 동시에 항산화제인 vitamin E의 처리에서 LA 독성에 의하여 감소된 세포 생존율이 유의하게 증가함으로서 LA의 독성에 산화적 손상이 관여하고 있음을 제시하였다. 한편, EH 추출물은 지질과산화 저해능을 비롯하여 superoxide dismutase (SOD)-유사활성능 및 DPPH-라디칼 소거능과 같은 항산화능에 의하여 LA 독성을 효과적으로 방어하였다. 이같은 항산화 효과는 gallic acid와 같은 폴리페놀이나 또는 flavonol이나 quercetin과 같은 플라보노이드와 같은 항산화성분에 기인된 결과로 생각된다. 결론적으로, EH 추출물과 같은 천연 소재는 차후 납신경독성과 같이 산화적 손상과 관련된 질환 치료를 위한 유용한 활용 인자로 사료된다.

본 연구는 세포 간지질이 주성분인 세라마이즈, 콜레스테롤, 콜레스테롤 에스텔, 스쿠알란, 레시친, 왁스 지방산을 팽윤 반응에 의하여 다중라멜라 소구체를 제조하였다. AHAsomes과 마이크로 플루다이저를 사용하여 MLV 형성에 대한 특성을 조사 하였다. 다중라멜라 소구체는 Polyol과 수상을 서서히 첨가하고, 마이크로 플루다이저를 사용함에 의해 자연스럽게 형성된다. 실제적으로 이 AHAsomes system의 형성은 방부제가 필요하지 않고, 활성 미용 성분을 침투시켰다. 친수성 활성 성분인 말릭산, 타타릭산, 락틱산, 알란토인, 우레아 그리고 소수성 미용 성분인 비타민-E 아세테이트, 비타민-A 팔미테이트를 캡슐화시켰다. MLV형성 조건은 마이크로플루다이저에 3회 통과하였으며, 베지클의 입자크기의 범위는 50-523nm이었다. 응용으로, 일반적인 O/W 에멀젼과 AHAsomes 크림을 사용하여 발바닥의 각질제거 효과를 비교하였다. 3개월동안 사용하여 주름은 15.8%, 피부 탄력은 3배정도 회복되었다. 이것을 Image Analyzer와 Cutometer로 확인하였다.

A cell-based assay system for monitoring NF-$textsc{k}$B activity was developed to determine the influence of activated NF-$textsc{k}$B in human HaCaT cells. The pNF-$textsc{k}$B-SEAP-NPT plasmid that permits expression of the secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) reported gene in response to the NF-$textsc{k}$B activity and contains neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT) gene for the geneticin resistance in host cells was constructed and transfected into human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Human HaCaT transfectant cells secreted the SEAP enzyme into the culture medium in a time-dependent manner until 72h. NF-$textsc{k}$B activities were measured in the SEAP reporter gene assay using a fluorescent detection method. The treatment of HaCaT cell transfectants with known antioxidants [e.g., N-acetyl-L-cysteine and vitamin C] showed inhibition of NF-$textsc{k}$B activity in a time-and concentration-dependent manner. The phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) known as a stimulator of NF-$textsc{k}$B expression demonstrated that it increased NF-$textsc{k}$B activity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. This assay system could be used to determine the quantitative measurement of NF-$textsc{k}$B activity in the human skin and allow the screening of anti-inflammatory agents from various synthetic chemicals and natural products for dermatological purpose. Abbrevitions used: NF-$textsc{k}$B, nuclear factor kappa B; I-$textsc{k}$B, Inhibitory kappa B; SEAP, secreted alkaline phosphatase; NPT, neomycin phosphotransferease; PCR, polymerase chain reaction: dNTP, deoxynucleoside triphosphates; DMEM, dulbecco’s modified eagle medium; FBS, fetal bovine serum; PBs, phosphate-buffered saline; MUP, 4-methylumbellifery phosphate; NAC, N-acetyl-L-cysteine; DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide; PMA, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate.

Objectives: This study was to investigate the anti-oxidation and anti-cancer activity of Chaga mushroom extract. Extraction condition optimization and beta-glucan analysis and anti-cancer activity tests were also done. Methods: Optimum extraction conditions for Chaga mushroom extract were at a temperature of $90^{\circ}C$ and 2hrs with 10 times of water. Extraction yield and economics were best under these conditions. Results: Anti-oxidation activity was the highest with the fraction of 100,000 MWCO and $IC_{50}$ value was $13{\mu}g/ml$ and this value was comparable to that of vitamin E, alpha-tocopherol. Among the fractions from various organic solvents, ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest anti-oxidation activity with $IC_{50}$ value of $7{\mu}g/ml$. For anti-cancer activity, chloroform fraction showed little anti-cancer activity and ethyl acetate fraction showed the best anti-cancer activity with $IC_{50}$ $1.5{\mu}g/ml$ for stomach cancer cells. Anti-cancer activities for different molecular weight fractions were the best in the fraction of molecular weight less than 100,000Da, and $IC_{50}$ values for stomach cancer cells and liver cancer cells were 1.7 and $1.4{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Conclusions: From these results, we can conclude that the extract of Chaga mushroom could be a good source for functional food and natural anti-cancer medicine.

5,6-dihydroxyindole was easily oxidation with air and light Conditions. Availability of 5,6-dihydroxyindole was studied for hair dye as a precursor of melanin. This study used wet and dry coating process to stabilize 5,6-dihydroxyindole. In wet process used dimethicone and cyclometicone, the 5,6-dihydroxyindole had darkened through the drying process at $58^{\circ}C$. Wet coating process was inappropriate to stabilize the coating. In dry coating process, shea butter coating was stable until 3 days. Dextrin palmitate was most efficient ingredient to prevent oxidation by sun light and air until 7days. Oxidation test with 1.0% and 1.5% of dextrin palmitate was not different under conditions of sun light and air and was not dependent on contents. Vitamin E acetate under conditions of sun light and air, there were no significant effect in preventing oxidation.

Objectives: This study was performed to evaluate the neurototoxicity of the environmental pollutant lead acetate(LA) and the protective effect of the D-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid(APV), N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) receptor antagonist on LA-induced cytotoxicity in cultured C6 glioma cells. Materials and Methods: For this study, cell viability in cultured C6 glioma cells was assessed by XTT assay and antioxidative effect, such as lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) activity, by LDH detection kit. Results: LA significantly decreased cell viability in a dose-dependent manner, and the XTT50 value was determined to be 33.3 uM of LA. The cytotoxicity of LA was deemed highly toxic according to Borenfreund and Puerner's toxic criteria. The vitamin E antioxidant significantly increased cell viability damaged by LA-induced cytotoxicity in these cultures. For the protective effect of APV on LA-induced cytotoxicity, APV significantly increased not only cell viability, but also inhibition of LDH activity. From these results, it is suggested that oxidative stress is involved in the neurotoxicity of LA, and APV effectively protected against LA-induced cytotoxicity via an antioxidative effect as an inhibotory activity of LDH. Conclusions: Natural resources like APV may be putative therapeutic agents for the toxic diminution of environmental pollutants such as LA correlated with oxidative stress.

Cosmetics are primarily applied to the skin; therefore, the association of cosmetic dyes with skin diseases or inflammation is a topic of great interest. Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an interleukin 7-like cytokine that activates dendritic cells to promote Th2 inflammatory immune responses. TSLP is highly expressed in keratinocytes under inflammatory conditions, which suggests that it may play a critical role in the development of skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis. Therefore, we investigated whether cosmetic dyes influenced the production of TSLP by keratinocytes. Phloxine O, also known as D&C Red No.27, is one of the most common red synthetic pigments and is widely used in colored cosmetics. Our results showed that Phloxine O downregulated phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-induced production of TSLP in a murine keratinocyte cell line (PAM212). Phloxine O also suppressed TSLP expression in KCMH-1 cells, which are mouse keratinocytes that constitutively produce high levels of TSLP. To investigate the in vivo effects of Phloxine O, we induced TSLP expression in mouse ear skin by topically applying MC903, a vitamin D3 analogue that is a well-known inducer of atopic dermatitis-like symptoms. Topical application of Phloxine O prevented MC903-induced TSLP production in mouse ear skin, attenuated the acute dermatitis-like symptoms and decreased serum IgE and histamine levels in mice. Suppression of TSLP expression by Phloxine O correlated with reduced expression of OX40 ligand and Th2 cytokines in mouse ear skin. Our results showed that Phloxine O may be beneficial to prevent dermatitis by suppressing the expression of TSLP and Th2 cytokines in skin.
