Abstract

Hot water-extracts prepared from Cordyceps militaris of silkworm pupa (CMP) or Cordyceps militaris of silkworm larva (CML) were tested for tumor growth inhibitory and immunomodulatory activities in ICR mice bearing sarcoma-180 cells solid tumor, and compared with those of the known compound, cordycepin, found in Cordyceps militaris. Mice were subcutaneously injected with sarcoma-180 cells, and i.p. injected with either saline (Control), 50 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg of CMP (CMP50 or CMP100, respectively), or CML (CML50 or CML100, respectively), or 1 or 2 mg/kg of cordycepin (C1 or C2, respectively) for 10 days. Mice injected with CMP50 or CMP100 showed a 47.3% or 57.6% inhibition in the solid tumor growth (P<0.05), while those injected with CML50 or CML100 exhibited a 35.5% or 37.1% reduction (p<0.05) in solid tumor size compared to the value for control mice treated with saline. Animals injected with corcycepin showed a 26∼30% inhibition in the solid tumor growth (P<0.05). Mice bearing solid tumor and injected with CMP or CML showed a significantly increased thymus weight (38∼44% increase), lymphocyte percentages of CD4+ T-cell, CD8+ T-cell, and NK-cell (63∼110% increase) in the spleen, and interleukin-2 excretion (33∼51% increase) by the isolated splenocytes compared to those in control mice (p<0.05). These results indicate that the anti-tumor activity of hot water extracts of Cordyceps militaris, raised on both silkworm pupa and silkworm larva, appears to be associated with their immunomodulatory activity, and these activities found in Cordyceps militaris are superior to those for the single compound, cordycepin.

본 연구에서는 누에번데기 또는 누에애벌레를 기주로 하여 인공 재배된 밀리타리스동충하초의 고형암 성장억제 및 면역조절 기능을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 sarcoma-180 세포주를 겨드랑이에 피하 이식받은 ICR 마우스를 대상으로 밀리타리스동충하초 또는 유효성 분으로 알려진 cordycepin을 10일간 복강투여한 후 고형암 성 장저지능, 면역관련 장기의 무게변화, 비장 내 면역세포수의 변화, 그리고 비장세포에 의한 interleukin-2(IL-2) 생성능을 측정하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 겨드랑이에 고형암을 이식받은 마우스에게 50 mg/kg(CMP50) 또는 100 mg/kg(CMP100)의 누에번데기 밀리타리스동충하초 추출물을 10일간 투여한 결과 생리식염수를 투여한 대조군에 비해 3주 후 고형암 성장이 47.3% 및 57.6% 유의하게 억제되었다(p<0.05). 50 mg/kg(CML50) 및 100 mg/kg(CML100)의 누에애벌레 밀리타리스동충하초를 투여받은 경우 35.5% 및 37.1%, 그리고 1 mg/kg 및 2 mg/kg의 cordycepin을 투여받은 군의 경우 26.1%와 29.8%의 고형암 성장 억제효과가 관찰되었다(p<0.05). 고형암을 이식받은 후 누에번데기 또는 누에애벌레 밀리타리스동충하초를 투여받은 마우스는 대조군에 비해 흉선무게가 38∼44% 유의하게 증가하였고(p<0.05), 비장내 CD4+ 및 CD8+ T-세포수, NK-세포수(63∼110% 증가), 그리고 비장세포에 의한 IL-2 생성능(33∼51%증가)이 모두 유의하게 증가하였다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 밀리타리스동충하초 열수추출물은 고형암의 성장을 억제하는 효과가 있으며, 이와 같은 밀리타리스동충하초 추출물의 항암활성은 면역기능 증강효과와 연관이 있을 것으로 생각된다. 아울러 밀리타리스동충하초의 고형암 성장억제 및 면역조절 기능은 cordycepin 단일물질에 비해 더 우수하였다.
