Abstract

Anti-atherogenic effects in tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$)-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) are involved in the suppression of oxidative stress, cell adhesion molecules, and pro-inflammatory factors. This study investigated the vascular inflammation inhibitory activity of traditional Doenjang plays a key role in the pathogenesis and progression of atherosclerosis. The protective effects of Korean Deonjang was investigated on the expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$-induced human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). Deonjang extracts (20, 50, $100{\mu}g/mL$) decreased the expression of 20 ng/mL TNF-${\alpha}$-induced vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1 intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 proteins, and their corresponding mRNA levels. Nitric oxides (NO) produced by endothlial nitric oxides synthase (eNOS) dilated blood vessels, which had protective effects against platelet and leukocyte adhesion. While TNF-${\alpha}$-induced suppressed the production of nitric oxide in HUVECs, Doenjang restored NO production in HUVECs. In addition, Deonjang reduced the TNF-${\alpha}$-induced expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 mRNA levels. These results suggested that Doenjang can inhibited the production of cell adhesion molecules and inflammatory mediators, which could be a potential candidate for preventing atherosclerosis.

DJ#3과 DJ#13은 항염증질환 소재로서 가능성을 확인하고자 국내 전통식품 풀질인증 된장에서 장기간 숙성된장으로 선발된 시료이다. DJ#3과 DJ#13 추출물의 세포독성을 살펴보기 위하여 혈관내피세포를 이용하여 세포의 생존율을 살펴본 결과 DJ#3과 DJ#13 추출물 모두 $100{\mu}g/mL$의 농도까지 전혀 독성을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 DJ#3과 DJ#13 추출물의 항염증 효과를 TNF-${\alpha}$에 의해 활성화된 혈관내피세포에서의 NO 생성, 염증관련 단백질 발현과 mRNA 유전자 발현의 변화를 통하여 확인하였다. 혈관내피세포에 TNF-${\alpha}$를 처리한 결과 NO의 함량이 유의적으로 감소하였다가 DJ#3과 DJ#13 추출물(20, 50, $100{\mu}g/mL$)을 처리하였을 때 유의성은 없으나 증가하였다. 세포배양액내 VCAM-1, ICAM-1 발현을 확인한 결과 혈관내피세포에 TNF-${\alpha}$를 처리한 군에서 증가된 VCAM-1 발현이 DJ#3 추출물 20, $50{\mu}g/mL$에서 유의성 있는 감소를 보였다. 또한 DJ#3 추출물은 NO 생성과 연관 있는 eNOS mRNA의 발현을 농도 의존적으로 증가하였으며, iNOS mRNA의 발현은 농도 의존적으로 감소하였으며 이는 NO 생성 증가가 iNOS의 발현억제를 경유한 것으로 사료된다. 또한 다수의 항염증 약물들의 작용기전이 되는 COX-2의 생성억제를 살펴본 결과 DJ#3 추출물은 TNF-${\alpha}$에 의해 발현되는 COX-2 단백질의 발현을 억제하였음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, DJ#3 추출물은 CAMs 단백질 및 mRNA 발현율의 감소됨을 보였다, 이상의 결과로 보아, DJ#3 추출물은 혈관내피세포에서 TNF-${\alpha}$로 유도된 혈관염증을 감소하는 효과를 가지고 있으며, 항염증물질의 연구에 기초 자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다. 또한 염증과 관련된 cytokine 및 단백질 발현 메커니즘에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
