1 만성간질환에서항섬유화치료의과거와미래 가톨릭대학교성가병원소화기내과 이영석 Antifibrotic Therapy in Chronic Liver Disease: Past and Future Prospectives Young-Sok Lee, MD Department of Internal Medicine, Holy Family Hospital, The Catholic University School of Medicine, Korea Abstract Hepatic fibrosis is characterized by the excessive accumulation of multiple matrix components in the liver including the interstitial collagens, basement membrane collagens, proteoglycans, and matrix glycoproteins. Activated hepatic stellate cells, portal fibroblasts, and myofibroblasts are the major source of extracellular matrix in response to fibrogenic cytokines such as TGF- β. The fibrogenic process is dynamic and liver fibrosis is the net result of the imbalance between the collagen fiber synthesis and decomposition. The progress in understanding fibrogenic mechanism provided the development of effective therapies to reverse hepatic fibrosis and even cirrhosis. Removing the injurious stimuli, suppressing hepatic inflammation, down-regulating stellate cell activation and promoting matrix degradation are the mainstay of antifibrotic therapy. Many potential antifibrotic strategies based on apoptosis of the activated stellate cells, drug targeting to the fibrogenic liver cells, and combination therapy of multiple drugs in small doses are emerging but testing of their clinical efficacy and safety remains to be clarified. Key Words: Antifibrotic therapy, Stellate cell, Cirrhosis, Chronic hepatitis

2 2006년대한간학회 Single Topic Symposium 서 론 간섬유화 (Liver fibrogenesis) 현상은간조직에서나타나는상처치유 (wound-healing) 과정의일 종으로서거듭되는간조직의손상과재생과정을통하여간경변증 (liver cirrhosis) 이발생되고있 다. 1 염증반응이진행됨에따라활성화된간성상세포 (hepatic stellate cell, HSC) 에서다량의교원 질을분비하고, 이는세포외기질 (extracellular matrix, ECM) 과결합(cross-linking) 함으로써간섬유 화현상은진행되고있다. 2 간조직내에교원질(collagen) 이다량침착되고, 재생결절 (regenerating nodule) 이교원질로이루어진다발(fibrous band) 로둘러싸여, 간조직의해부학적구조가비정상적 인상태(abnormal architecture) 로변한상태를간경변증이라하며인체내에서다양한종류의특 성을나타내고있다( 표 1). 효과적인치료방법이없었던지난날간손상의원인인자를제거하거나 염증반응을완화시킴으로서섬유의생성과정 (fibrogenesis) 을억제하는치료방법이항섬유화치료 의근간을이루어왔다. 섬유화현상이섬유의생성(fibrogenesis) 과용해(fibrinolysis) 사이에서의 동적인과정(dynamic process) 으로알려진상태 2 에서도간경변증자체가불가역적이라는인식이 지배적으로각인되어항섬유화치료는답보상태에있다. 만성 B 형간염, C형간염을포함한만성간 질환의치료방법이개선됨에따라간경변증의섬유화정도가호전된다는연구결과를토대로간경 변증자체도가역적질병이라는인식이보편화되고있다. 그러나간섬유화과정에관여하는유전적 요인이나환경적요인이무엇인지는아직까지문제점으로남아있다. 어느정도의간경변증까지항 섬유화치료를통하여가역적으로호전시킬수있는지도문제점으로남아있다. 간섬유화과정에 대한관심집중과광범위한연구를통하여항섬유화치료의효과를향상시킬수있을것으로기대하 고있다.

Matrix matalloproteinase (MMPs) 가중요한단백질분해효소로작 용하고있으며인체의간에서는 MMP-1, -2, -3, -8, -9, -12, -13, -14 의여러종류가생성되고있 다. 11 MMP-2 는주로기저막을형성하고있는교원질과변성된교원질을분해하고, MMP-8 은원 섬유(fibril) 를형성하는교원질중주로제1형과제3 형의교원질을분해하고있다. 12 조직내에는 MMP 의활성을억제하는물질(tissue inhibitors of MMPs, TIMP) 이존재하고있으며, 4가지종류 의 TIMP 중 TIMP-1 이가장광범위하게작용하며또한가장중요한역할을담당하고있다. 항섬유화치료 섬유화과정(fibrogenesis) 은 1) 세포외기질의과량합성, 2) MMP 분해효소의합성과활성도의 저하, 3) TIMPs 합성의증가로특징지어지며그결과로나타난것이섬유화현상이다. 항섬유화치 료는크게 1) 간세포손상의원인자체를제거하는치료 2) 간조직내에서염증반응을완화시키는 치료, 3) 간성상세포를활성화시키고있는각종섬유화인자를억제시키는방법, 4) 활성화된간성 상세포의활성도를저하시키는방법, 5) 과량합성된세포외기질을분해하는방법으로구분할수가 있다. 2,13 일반적으로항섬유화싸이토카인의투여와섬유화싸이토카인의억제제를투여함으로써 세포외기질의합성을억제시키고있다. 또한활성화된간성상세포가 apoptosis 과정을통하여사 멸할수있도록유도하는치료방법도이용되고있다. 14,15 한편으로는간경변조직에서세포외기질 을직접적으로분해하기위하여간조직내에 MMP-1이나 MMP-8 유전자를주입하는치료방법 (adenoviral gene transfer) 도시도되고있다. 항섬유화치료는 1) 간조직에특이적으로작용해야 하며, 2) 오랜기간동안환자의순응도를유지할수있도록투여방법이간편해야하며, 3) 효과가 뚜렷해야하며, 4) 부작용이없어야하는조건을지니고있다. 특히잔여간기능이부족한간경변증 환자에게오랫동안투여하여도부작용이없고, 효과는뚜렷하며, 경제적으로부담이되지않는약 제의개발이요구되고있다. 간에서염증반응을완화시키는약제 간조직에서염증반응을완화시킴으로써간섬유화를억제하는약제로서는간기능개선제, 소염제, anti-oxidant 가있다. 일반적으로 UDCA, 실리마린, DDB 등이이용되고있으며, 알코올간질환에서 는 s-adenosyl methionine (SAM), propylthiouracil (PTU), polyenylphosphatiykcholine (PPC),

In vitro와 in vivo 실험을통하여항섬유화 약제의많은부분이밝혀지고동물실험을통하여검증되고있으나인상치료에적용하기에는아직

14 2006년대한간학회 Single Topic Symposium 도해결되어야할문제점들이많이있다. 섬유화과정에관여하는유전인자를파악함으로써간경변 증으로진행될위험도가높은환자를선별치료하는방안이나비관혈적방법을통하여항섬유화치 료효과를판정하는방법의개발이요구되고있다. 항섬유화치료뿐아니라간세포의재생촉진이요 구되는간경변증환자에서줄기세포를이용한치료나유전자치료의역할이기대되고있다.
