Abstract

The object of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of chios mastic gum (MG) on gastric acid secretion in an ethanol-induced SD rat model and primary parietal cells. Rats were randomly divided into four groups: Vehicle (normal group), Control (treated with ethanol), MG50 (treated with ethanol and mastic gum at 50 mg/kg b.w), MG100 (treated with ethanol and mastic gum at 100 mg/kg b.w). Groups treated with both MG50 and MG100 showed attenuation of gastric mucosal injury, sub-epithelial loss, hemorrhaging, and gastric juice secretion. We also examined the acidity of gastric juice during gastric injury. Oral administration of both MG50 and MG100 significantly decreased acidity of gastric juice by % and %, respectively. To examine the stimulatory factors related to gastric acid secretion, mRNA expression levels of H2r, M3r, CCK2r, and $H^+/K^+$ ATPase were measured by real-time PCR. Compared with a vehicle group, mRNA expression levels of H2r, CCK2r, and $H^+/K^+$ ATPase clearly increased in the control group. However, levels of H2r, CCK2r, and $H^+/K^+$ ATPase slightly but significantly decreased in MG-treated groups compared with control. Blood level of histamine significantly decreased in MG-treated groups, which indicates the involvement of MG on in histamine-related acid secretion. To identify the mode of action of MG in regulating histamine-related pathways, intracellular level of cAMP and mRNA levels of H2r, M3r, CCK2r, and $H^+/K^+$ ATPase were measured in primary parietal cells. While mRNA levels of M3r and CCK2r remained unchanged, levels of H2r and $H^+/K^+$ ATPase significantly decreased upon MG treatment. Subsequently, intracellular levels of cAMP decreased. These results suggest that mastic gum has the ability to inhibit gastric acid secretion by regulating a histamine-related pathway.

본 연구는 위 벽세포 in vitro 실험모델과 알코올로 위를 자극한 in vivo 실험모델을 이용하여 매스틱 검의 위산 분비 억제 및 위장 점막 보호 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 위 조직의 병리학적인 관찰을 통하여 효과를 관찰한 결과 알코올로 위를 자극한 군에서 위 점막 조직의 손상과 표면 상피세포의 손실을 관찰할 수 있었으나, 매스틱 검 50 및 100 mg/kg 투여한 군에서 모두 control 그룹과 비교했을 때 손상이 회복되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 위액 분비량 및 위액 산도를 비교한 결과에서도 알코올의 자극으로 인하여 증가한 위액 분비량과 위액 산도를 매스틱 검이 유의적으로 감소시켰음을 확인할 수 있었다. 혈장 histamine 농도와 그로 인해 영향을 받은 H2r 발현량 변화로 위산 분비 관련 인자를 확인한 결과에서도 매스틱 검을 투여한 그룹에서 유의적으로 그 농도가 감소한 것을 확인하였다. 또한 위 벽세포에서 위산 분비 증가와 관련된 수용체인 CCK2r과 $H^+/K^+$ APTase 발현 변화도 역시 매스틱 검의 투여가 효과적으로 발현을 억제한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 동물실험 결과를 바탕으로 세포 수준에서의 기전 규명을 위한 연구를 추가적으로 진행하였으며, 세포 내 cAMP 농도, $H^+/K^+$ APTase 및 H2r의 발현 변화를 관찰한 결과 매스틱 검의 처리가 효과적으로 이들의 발현을 감소시켰음을 확인하였다. 따라서 매스틱 검의 위산 분비 억제 및 점막 보호 활성 효과는 형태학적 및 병리학적 관찰, histamine 분비 억제, 수용체 발현 억제효과 등으로 확인한 결과, histamine을 통한 위산 분비 경로를 조절함으로써 위산 분비 및 위장 점막 손상에 대해 보호 효과를 나타내었으며 이는 이전 실험 결과들과 동일한 농도에서 효과가 나타났음을 확인하였다.
