Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the gastric emptying and gastrointestinal transit improvement effect of DL-methionine methylsulfonium chloride (MMSC) in functional dyspepsia animal models. Cisplatin causes nausea, vomiting, and inhibition of gastric emptying. Rats were divided into four groups: G1 (normal group), G2 (gastric emptying induced by cisplatin), G3 (gastric emptying induced by cisplatin with itopride 30 mg/kg pretreatment), and G4 (gastric emptying induced by cisplatin with MMSC 4 mg/kg pretreatment). Immediately after an oral administration of a liquid meal (phenol red), delayed gastric emptying was induced by cisplatin (10 mg/kg (i.p.)). After 20 min in the cisplatin administration, the animals were sacrificed. In rats treated with cisplatin, the gastric emptying rate was significantly reduced. On the other hand, MMSC reversed the reduction of gastric emptying induced by cisplatin. And also, MMSC caused to travel FITC-dextran more significantly longer distance than the control, which is based on the values of the mean geometric center in the atropine driven delayed gastrointestinal transit animal models. Furthermore, MMSC drastically increased the gastrointestinal transit in rats, considerably increased the values of the mean geometric center (MGC), compared to the control, which was comparable to that of mosapride. These results suggest that MMSC could be an effective component for the treatment of functional dyspepsia.

본 연구는 cisplatin 및 atropine으로 유발된 기능성소화불량증 동물모델에서 MMSC의 위 배출능 및 위장관 전이 지연의 개선 효과를 연구한 후, 기능성소화불량증을 치료하기 위한 약물의 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 기능성소화불량은 뚜렷한 기질적 병변 없이 여러 가지 다양한 소화불량 증상에 의한 진단이기 때문에 치료 또한 단순하지가 않다. 대부분의 증상이 호전과 악화를 반복하며 음식, 스트레스 등에 의해 변화가 심하므로 임상적으로 효과 판정이 어렵고, 더욱이 위약만을 투여하더라도 증상의 호전이 있을 수 있으므로 어떠한 치료가 의미 있게 효과가 있는지를 판단하는데 애로점이 많다. 이번 연구에 대조물질로 비교한 약물도 현재 사용되는 위장질환 치료물질로 위 배출능에서 시험물질보다 좋은 결과 값을 얻었지만, 위장관 전이 지연 개선 실험에서 시험물질 MMSC와 비교하였을 때 약물의 효과가 다르게 나타났다. 결론적으로 MMSC를 투여한 그룹이 유발그룹에 비해 위 배출능 및 위장관의 전이 비율이 유의적으로 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 위장관 운동 촉진제로 시판되는 약물을 투여한 그룹보다는 그 비율이 다소 낮게 관찰되었지만 시판 약물의 고용량 투여와 비교하여 저용량의 MMSC에도 불구하고 위배출능의 효과를 확인하였으므로 고용량의 MMSC투여 시 위 배출능의 개선 효과가 높게 관찰될 가능성 역시 배제할 수 없어 향후 보다 구체적인 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
