Methods : Cell viability was measured by neutral red (NR) assay, and nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 cells was monitored by measuring the nitrite content in culture medium. The expressions of cyclooxigenase-2 (COX-2) was determined by western blot analysis, and Inducible nitric oxide syntase (inos) and cytokine were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results : When the GSO extract was added the concentration of 5-20 μg / μl, the viability of cells was maintained 90% or more at all levels. NO production was suppressed by the treatment of GSO in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. GSO inhibited the expression of inos, COX-2, IL-1β and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Conclusions: From this results, we consider that GSO can be a useful therapeutic and preventive approach to various inflammatory diseases as a functional material for inflammatory activities.

LPS 처리에의하여활성화된 RAW264.7 세포에용담화추출물을 5, 20 μg / μl의농도로처리하고 3시간배양한세포를수거하여 PBS 로세척후 RIPA buffer (50 mm Tris-Cl (ph 7.5), 50 mm NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, proteaseinhibitor cocktail (Roche, Switzerland)) 로 30분간용해시킨후 12,000 rpm, 4 에서 30분간원심분리하여상등액을회수하였다. 회수된상등액은 SDS sample buffer (60 mm Tris (ph 6.8), 14.4 mm 2-mercaptoethanol, 25% glycerol, 2% SDS, 0.1% bromo-phenol blue) 를첨가하고 100 에서 5분간 denaturation 시킨후단백질을 SDS-PAGE 로분자량별로분리하였다. 분리된단백질은 100 V의조건에서 1시간동안 nitrocellulose membrane (Whatman, UK) 으로전이 시키고 0.1% BSA 용액으로 blocking 시킨후 membrane 을 anti-cox-2 primary antibody 용액에담가 4 에서 18시간반응시켰다.

Neutral Red (NR) 에의한세포생존율측정 1) RAW264.7 세포에서세포생존율 RAW264.7 세포에용담화에탄올추출물의세포독성을알아보기위해 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 μg / μl로농도별로처리하여 48시간동안배양한후 NR assay 를수행하였다. 용담화추출물의세포생존율을측정한결과세포에에탄올추출물을 5-20 μg / μl의농도로첨가하였을때, 추출물은대체로모든농도에서 90% 이상의생존율을유지하였다. 그러나농도가 μg / μl에서는세포의생존율이현격히줄어드는것을확인할수있다. 따라서향후실험은 20 μg / μl이내에서실시하였다 (Fig. 1). 5, 10, 20 μg / μl의농도로처리하였을때, LPS 처리군에비해농도의존적으로 NO 생성이억제되는것으로나타났다 (Fig. 2). 특히용담화추출물 20 μg / μl의농도에서 NO 생성이 80% 이상억제되는것으로나타나항염작용이매우우수한것으로나타났다. Fig. 2. Effect of Gentianae sino-ornata extract on NO production in RAW264.7 cells. RAW264.7 cells were treated with LPS (1 μg / μl ) and combined with GSO for 48h. Nitrite was measured by Griess reagent. The results were expressed as the average of triplicate samples with S.D. ##p<0.001 compared with control, and *p<0.01, **p<0.001 compared with LPS treated group. 3. 세포내 Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) 발현저해능 Fig. 1. Effect of Gentianae sino-ornata extract on cell viability in RAW264.7 cells. Cells were plated at 3 10⁴cells/well and incubated in media containing from 5 to 100 μg / μl for 48 hours. Cell viabilities were measured by NR assay as described in materials and methods. The results were expressed as the average of triplicate samples with S.D. *p<0.01, **p<0.001 compared with control. 2.

RAW264.7 cells are treated with LPS (1 μg / μl ) and combined with Gentiane sino-ornata (GSO) extract. Cells were lysed and cellular proteins were then separated by SDS-PAGE, followed by Western blot analysis using antibody against COX-2. Actin was used as an internal control. Fig. 4. Effect of Gentianae sino-ornata extract on inos, IL-1β and IL-6 mrna expressions in RAW264.7 cells. RAW264.7 cells are treated with LPS (1 μg / μl ) and combined with Gentiane sino-ornata (GSO) extract. After 24 hours, cells were analyzed using RT-PCR as described in marerials and methods. 4. 세포내 inos 및 cytokine 발현억제능 용담화추출물이 NO 생성과관련된효소인 inos 와염증사이토카인인 IL-1β 및 IL-6의 mrna 발현에미치는영향은 RT-PCR을수행하여조사하였다. 실험결과 RAW264.7 세포에서 LPS 처리시 inos 의발현이현저히증가하였고, 또한용담화추출물 20 μg / μl의농도에서다소감소하였다. IL-1β와 IL-6는용담화추출물 20 μg / μl농도에서감소하는경향을나타냈으나그효과는크지않았다 (Fig. 4). 이상의결과용담화추출물은 RAW264.7 세포에서 inos, IL-1β 와 IL-6의발현을억제하여 NO 생성을감소시키는것으로사료된다. Ⅳ. 고찰염증반응 (inflammation) 은세균및바이러스등의미생물들과생체이물질들에의해활성화된면역세포혹은염증매개인자 (pro-inflammatory mediators) 들의발현에서부터시작되며, 병원균들의감염, 화학적자극및상처등과같은외부자극에대한생체조직의방어기작이다 18). Macrophages 는염증반응에관여하는대표적인면역세포로써 LPS와같은염증유발물질에의해활성화되며 19), 활성화된 macrophages 로부터분비되는각종염증물질들은염증반응을유발하여기관지천식, 기관지염, 류마티스관절염, 동맥경화증, 그리고알츠하이머병이나파킨슨병과같은퇴행성뇌질환과뇌졸중, 바이러스감염등의발병에관여한다 20,21). 따라서최근에는각종염증물질들을효과적으로감소시킬수있는항염증제제개발에대한연구가활발히진행되고있으며한약재에서얻은생리활성성분이염증치료물질이되고있다. 용담초 (Gentiana scabra Bunge) 는다년생초본으로초용담 ( 草龍膽 ), 지담초 ( 地膽草 ) 등여러가지이름으로불리고있으며용담의꽃을용담화 (Gentiana sino-ornata) 라고한다. 한방에서사용되는뿌리의성미 ( 性味 ) 는고한 ( 苦寒 ) 으로간담 ( 肝膽 ) 의실화 ( 實火 ) 를사 ( 瀉 ) 하고청열 ( 淸熱 ), 조습 ( 燥濕 ), 하초 ( 下焦 ) 의습열 ( 濕熱 ) 을제거하는효능이있어두통, 협통 ( 脇痛 ), 습진, 피부및음낭소양 ( 搔痒 ), 황달, 만성위장질환에 57

8 사용하며 11), 대장간균, 백선균, 피부진균에대하여억제작용이있는것으로알려져있다 12). Lipopolysaccharide(LPS) 는병원균의내독소로서그람음성세균의막구조물로다당류, 인지질및소량의단백질로구성되어있으며, 여러종류의염증세포및조직구성세포들이생산하는 cytokine들의생산을촉진한다 22). 또한 Raw cell 과같은 macrophage 또는 monocyte 에서는 tumor necrosis factor-α(tnf-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) 와같은 pro-inflammatory cytokine들을증가시키는것으로알려저있다 23,24). Nitric oxide (NO) 는아르기닌 (L-arginine) 으로부터산화질소합성효소 nitric oxide synthase (NOS) 에의하여생성되는물질로 NO synthases (NOS) 인 inducible nitric oxide synthase (inos), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (enos) 및 constitutive nitric oxide synthase (cnos or nnos) 에의해생성된다. cnos 는내피세포, 신경세포, 심근세포와같은세포내에상존하며칼슘에의하여활성화되어소량의 NO를계속생성한다. 반면 inos 는간세포, 혈관평활근세포, 섬유아세포, 마우스의대식세포와같은세포들에서면역학적자극이나염증성자극에의해합성되고이들세포에서는다량의 NO를생성한다. 또한혈관계에존재하는 enos 는염증을억제하지만 inos 는염증을촉진하는것으로알려져있다. 과잉생산된 NO는그자체로도유전자및단백질에독성을나타내지만활성산소의하나인 superoxide anion과반응해맹독성을가진 peroxynitrite 를생성하므로더욱강력한독성물질로변화되어암형성과진행에중요한역할을하는것으로보고되고있다 25). Cyclooxygenase (COX) 는 COX-1 과 COX-2 의두가지이성체가존재하는데 26), 세포가병적스트레스를받으면세포막에서지방산의일종인 Arachidon 산이유리되고이를원료로하여 COX-1 효소와 COX-2 효소가스트레스를해결하기위하여염증매개물질인각 prostaglandins (PGs) 을만들어낸다. COX-1 은 혈관, 위, 신장의정상조직에서발견되며, 혈류의유지나점액과중탄산염의생성, 신장기능조절과같은신체의항상성유지에관여하는반면 COX-2 는염증반응뿐만아니라혈액응고, 신장기능, 혈관조절및면역반응등에관여하고, 염증성 cytokine이분비되면 COX-2 가활성화된다 27). 또한 COX-2 는염증조직, 악성종양조직에서정상세포에비해많은양의 prostaglandin (PG) 의생성을유도하여혈관생성을촉진하고세포의증식을도울뿐아니라면역능력을억제함으로써암세포성장에좋은환경을제공하여또다른질병의병원성과의직접적인연관성을시사하고있다 28). COX-2 가발현되면류마티스관절염같은만성염증질환과대장, 두경부, 폐, 방광, 전립선, 위등인체에악성종양이발견된연구결과들이보고되었다 29,30). COX 에의해생성되는 PGs는염증, 유사분열생식, 세포의유착, 면역감시기구등에서중요한기능을수행하고세포분열이나증식에영향을줌으로서유방암, 대장암, 위암, 폐암등각종인체암의발생및진행에역할을한다는실험적증거들이보고 31) 되고있다. 이상의연구결과용담화에탄올추출물은 LPS로활성화시킨 RAW264.7 세포에서농도의존적으로 NO생성을저하시키고염증반응에관련된사이토카인의발현을억제시켜높은항염증효능을나타냈으며, 향후항염증전략으로개발하기위한기초자료로응용될수있을것으로기대한다. Ⅴ. 결론용담화에탄올추출물의항염증효과를알아보기위하여 RAW264.7 세포를활용하여세포독성과세포내 NO (Nitric Oxide) 생성량을측정하였다. Western blot 분석으로단백질발현양을측정하였으며아울러 RT-PCR을수행하여 RAW264.7 세포내에서용담화추출물의염증사이토카인발현억제효 58
