Abstract

This study investigated the anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of Aster glehni (AG) extract in RAW 264.7 cells and Caenorhabditis elegans. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were higher in the ethanol extracts than in the hot water extracts. As a result of measuring the moisture contents (%) and extraction yields (%) of AG and drying A. glehni for processing (DAG), 70% ethanol, which has the highest percentage of extraction yield, was selected as the final solvent. DPPH radical scavenging activity showed higher antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts of DAG than AG. The cytotoxicity assay of the AG or DAG ethanol extracts was treated at different concentrations (25, 50, and 100 ㎍/mL), and cell viability rates were higher than 80% at all concentrations. The LPS-stimulated nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 was significantly reduced at all concentrations of AG and DAG groups. As a result of measuring the gene expression of iNOS, which induces NO production, the AG or DAG group decreased by 33% and 32%, compared with the phosphate buffer saline (PBS) group. Under inflammatory stress conditions, the survival rate of C. elegans treated with AG or DAG ethanol extract with LPS showed concentration-dependent improvement in survival rate compared with the PBS group. Considering these results, AG could potentially be developed as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functional food material.

본 연구는 울릉 섬쑥부쟁이의 생리활성을 평가하여 기능성 농식품 소재로서의 자료 제공을 목적으로 하였다. 대식세포와 선충을 활용하여 울릉 섬쑥부쟁이의 항산화 및 항염증 효과를 평가하였다. 총폴리페놀 함량과 총플라보노이드 함량은 AG와 DAG의 에탄올(70%, 100%) 용매가 열수보다 추출수율이 높았으며, 추출 조건별 항산화 활성 분석도 열수보다는 에탄올 추출물에서 가장 높았다. AG의 경우 100% 에탄올 추출물(4.50%)이, DAG의 경우 70% 에탄올 추출물(4.19%)로 수율이 가장 높았다. 항산화 성분의 추출수율과 라디컬소거 활성 결과와 식품소재 활용을 고려하여 70% 에탄올을 최종 용매로 선정하였다. 시료의 효과평가를 위해 세포독성이 없는 100 ㎍/mL를 최대 농도로 설정하여 대식세포 RAW 264.7에서의 항염증 활성을 평가하였다. LPS로 염증을 유도하고 AG와 DAG 에탄올 추출물 처리군은 LPS 단독 처리군(양성 대조군)과 비교하여 NO의 생성과 iNOS의 발현이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 선충을 이용한 AG와 DAG 에탄올 추출물의 항산화 활성 분석 결과, juglone 처리로 인한 산화적 스트레스 조건하에서 선충의 생존율 연장에는 영향을 미치지 못했다. 선충에 LPS를 처리하여 염증 스트레스 조건하에서 AG와 DAG 에탄올 추출물이 LPS 단독 처리군에 비해 24시간 후 생존율이 증가하였고, 두 시료 모두 생존율 개선 효과가 농도 의존적으로 보였다. 염증과 산화의 스트레스 조건 없이 선충의 평균 수명 기간인 20일 동안 AG와 DAG 추출물을 처리하여 항노화 효과를 평가한 결과 AG와 DAG 에탄올 추출물을 처리한 선충의 생존율 중앙값(10일)은 CON보다 높았으며, DAG 에탄올 추출물은 농도 의존적으로 생존율을 높이는 경향을 보였으나, AG 에탄올 추출물은 그렇지 않았다. AG와 DAG의 20일 생존율은 CON보다 낮거나 유사(DAG 50)하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 울릉 섬쑥부쟁이 에탄올 추출물은 in vitro에서 항산화 활성을 보였고, 염증이 유도된 대식세포에서 iNOS 유전자 발현을 억제하여 NO의 생성량이 감소하였다고 사료된다. 또한, 염증 스트레스를 유도한 선충의 생존율 개선 효과를 보였다. 이 결과는 울릉 섬쑥부쟁이의 건강기능식품 개발 시 기초자료로 활용하고, 지역 농산물의 소비 활성화에 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
