Abstract

The effects of volatile flavor extracts of eight different herbal medicines, Juniperus rigida (JR), Saussurea lappa SL), Cnidium officinale (CO), Angelica gigas (AG), Eugenia caryophyllata (EC), Angelica tenuissima (AT), Mentha arvense (MA), and Artemisiae argyi (AA), were investigated on LPS-stimulated inflammation using Raw 264.7 cells. The volatile flavor extracts of CO and AG considerably inhibited LPS-stimulated NO, $PGE_2$, IL-6, and TNF-${\alpha}$ (except AG) production, as well as iNOS expression. Major volatile components of CO were identified as ligustilide and of ${\beta}$-eudesmol as AG by GC-MS analysis. Thus, these results suggest that the volatile extracts of CO and AG may be useful as potential therapeutic agents for inflammation-associated disorders.

본 연구는 생약의 휘발성 향기추출액을 이용한 염증치료용 기능성 신소재를 개발하기 위해 대식세포주인 Raw 264.7 세포를 이용한 모델시스템에서 천궁 및 당귀의 휘발성 향기추출물의 항염증 효과를 검정하였으며, 아울러 이들 향기추출물의 향기성분을 GC-MS 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과 8가지 생약(노간주, 목향, 천궁, 당귀, 정향, 고본, 박하, 애엽)의 향기추출물 중 천궁 및 당귀가 LPS 처리에 의한 NO의 생성을 가장 크게 억제하였으며 $PGE_2$의 생성도 현저히 억제시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 천궁 및 당귀의 향기 추출물은 NO의 생합성 효소인 iNOS 단백질의 발현 또한 농도의존적으로 감소시킴을 확인할 수 있었으며, 염증성 사이토카인인 IL-6의 생성 억제효과도 우수하였다. 천궁 및 당귀 향기추출물의 휘발성 향기성분을 GC-MS로 분석한 결과, 천궁은 eugenol, 3-butylphthalide, butylidene phthalide 및 ligustilide를 확인하였으며 이들 향기성분 중 ligustilide가 천궁의 주된 휘발성 향기성분임을 확인하였고, 당귀는 eugenol, ${\beta}$-maaliene, ${\beta}$-eudesmol 및 9-tetradecenoic acid를 확인하였으며 이들 향기성분 중 ${\beta}$-eudesmol이 당귀의 주된 향기성분임을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구결과로 미루어 볼 때 천궁 및 당귀의 휘발성 향기추출물이 대식세포에 의해 생성되는 염증반응의 매개물질인 NO, $PGE_2$, IL-6의 생성을 저해함으로써 항염증 활성을 가지는 것으로 생각되며, 이러한 항염증 활성은 천궁 및 당귀에 함유된 항염증성 향기성분인 ligustilide 및 ${\beta}$-eudesmol이 크게 기여했을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 천궁 및 당귀의 휘발성 향기추출물은 천연 유래의 항염증 물질로서 잠재적인 가치가 있어 향후 염증질환 예방 및 치료용 기능성식품 및 화장품 소재로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
