  • Eleven steroid hormones (SHs: androstene-3,17-dione, estrone, ${\beta}$-estradiol, ${\alpha}$-estradiol, testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, $17{\acute{a}}$-hydroxyprogesterone, medroxyprogesterone, megestrol acetate, progesterone, and androsterone) were detected from New Zealand deer (Cervus elaphus var. scoticus) velvet antler (NZA, 鹿茸 ). A method for the quantification of eleven SHs was established by using ultraperformance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-MS/MS. The linearities ($R^2$ > 0.991), limits of quantification (LOQ values, 0.3 ng/mL to 23.1 ng/mL), intraday and interday precisions (relative standard deviation: RSD < 2.43%), and recovery rates (97.3% to 104.6%) for all eleven SHs were determined. In addition, a method for the quantification of three 7-oxycholesterols (7-O-CSs: 7-ketocholesterol, $7{\alpha}$-hydroxycholesterol, and $7{\beta}$-hydroxycholesterol) in the NZA was established by using an HPLC-photodiode array (PDA) method. The linearities ($R^2$ > 0.999), LOQ values (30 ng/mL to 350 ng/mL), intraday and interday precisions (RSD < 1.93%), and recovery rates (97.2% to 103.5%) for the three 7-O-CSs were determined. These quantitative methods are accurate, precise, and reproducible. As a result, it is suggested that the five steroid compounds of androstene-3,17-dione, androsterone, 7-ketocholesterol, $7{\alpha}$-hydroxycholesterol, and $7{\beta}$-hydroxycholesterol could be marker steroids of NZA. These methods can be applied to quantify or standardize the marker steroids present in NZA.

  • 신생 쥐 간의 subcellular fraction의 특징과 $6{\alpha}$-steroid hydroxylase의 subcellular localization및 특성을 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 1000g 30초 침전 fraction은 총 DNA의 95%를 차지하므로써 crude nuclei fraction으로 나타났으며 또한 5'-nucleotidase의 specific activity가 높은 것은 파괴되지 않은 세포에 기인된 것으로 생각이 되며, 1450g 10분 침전 fraction은 5'-nucleotidase의 activity가 가장 높으므로 crude plasma membrane fraction으로 동정하였으나 mitochondria가 같이 침전되어 있었으며, 9000g 20분 침전 fraction은 succinate-cytochrome C reductase의 activity가 가장 높아 mitochondria fraction으로 하였고, 105,000g 60분 상등액은 LDH가 가장 높아 cytosol로 하였으며, 105,000g 60분 침전은 남은 부분으로 microsome fraction으로 추정하였다. 각 fraction에 기질인 $3{\beta}$-hydroxy-$5{\alpha}$-pregnan-20-one을 incubation시킨 후의 생성된 steroid를 보면 crude nuclei fraction에서는 pregnadiol($5{\alpha}$-pregnane-$3{\alpha}/{\beta}$, $20{\alpha}$-diol)의 형성으로 $20{\alpha}$-reduction과 $3{\alpha}$-$3{\beta}$ iso${\beta}$merization을 볼 수 있었으며 crude plasma membrane fraction에서는 $20{\alpha}$-reduction과 $6{\alpha}$-hydroxylation을 볼 수 있었으며 crude mitochondria와 cytosol에서는 $20{\alpha}$-reduction만을 crude microsome에서는 $16{\alpha}$-hydroxylation을 볼 수 있었으므로 $6{\alpha}$-hydroxylase는 crude plasma membrane에 존재함을 확인하였다. 한편 $6{\alpha}$-steroid hydroxylase에 존재함을 확인하였다. 한편 $6{\alpha}$-steroid hydroxylase의 최대 활성도는 pH 7에서 나타났으며 progesterone은 hydroxylation을 시키지 못한 반면 $3{\alpha}$-hydroxy-$5{\alpha}$-pregnan-20-one은 $6{\alpha}$-hydroxylation이 되었다.

  • The effects of total ginseng saponin. extracts of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, on the differentiation of F9 teratocarcinoma stem cells were studied. F9 stem cells cultured in the presence of ginseng saponin together with dibutyric cAMP became parietal endoderm - like cells. Moreover, the expressions of differentiation marker genes. laminin. type IV collagen. and retinoic acid $receptor-{\beta}(RAR{\beta})$ were increased after treatment of ginseng saponin. Among various ginsenosides purified from crude ginseng saponin, $Rh_1\;and\;Rh_2$ caused the differentiation of F9 cells most effectively. Since ginsenosides and steroid hormone show resemblance in chemical structure. we studied the possibility of the involvement of a steroid receptor in the differentiation process induced by ginsenosides. According to Southwestern blot analysis, a 94 kDa protein regarding as a steroid receptor was detected in F9 cells cultured in the medium containing ginseng saponin. Based on these data, we suggest that ginseng saponin, especially ginsenosides $Rh_1\;and\;Rh_2$ cause the differentiation of F9 cells and the effects of ginsenosides might be exerted via binding with a steroid receptor or its analogous nuclear receptor.

  • A pregnane steroid, 3α-hydroxy-pregn-7-ene-6,20-dione (1), was isolated from a Hydractinia-associated Cladosporium sphaerospermum SW67 by repetitive column chromatographic separation and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purification. The planar structure of 1 was elucidated from the analysis of the spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR spectra) and LC-MS data. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by interpretation of ROESY spectrum of 1, together with the comparison of reported spectroscopic values in previous studies. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the identification of the pregnane scaffold from C. sphaerospermum, a natural source. Compound 1 was evaluated for its effects on lipid metabolism and adipogenesis during adipocyte maturation and showed that compound 1 substantially inhibited lipid accumulation compared to the control. Consistently, the expression of the adipocyte marker gene (Adipsin) was reduced upon incubation with 1. Further, we evaluated the effects of 1 on lipid metabolism by measuring the transcription of lipolytic and lipogenic genes. The expression of the lipolytic gene ATGL was significantly elevated upon exposure to 1 during adipogenesis, whereas the expression of lipogenic genes FASN and SREBP1 was significantly reduced upon treatment with 1. Thus, our findings provide experimental evidence that the steroid derived from Hydractinia-associated C. sphaerospermum SW67 is a potential therapeutic agent for obesity.

  • Alternative or complementary medicine plays an important role in health care system. Ginseng, being one of the most popular oriental herbs, is believed to contain various steroid hormone activity. Ginseng has been demonstrated pharmacological effect in the cardiovascular, endocrine, central nervous, and immune system. Our objective was to study that total saponin might mediate some of their actions by binding to the steroid hormone receptor, as they share many of the actions of steroid hormone in various physiological system. Using total saponin from Panax Ginseng, we have studied the possibility of total saponin being a potential estrogen receptor, androgen receptor, and retinoic acid receptor ligand. Total saponin activated the transcription of both the estrogen and androgen responsive luciferase reporter plasmids at a concentration of 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml in COS cells transiently transfected with the corresponding receptor and hormone responsive receptor plasmids. And total saponin caused a concentration-dependent stimulation of estrogen receptor. Total saponin increased the expression of estrogen responsive c-fos proto-oncogene at the protein level in MCF7 cells at 24 h treatment as examined by Western analysis. The c-fos induction was used as a specific marker of estrogen responsiveness. This activation was inhibited by the specific estrogen receptor antagonist, ICI 182,780. However, total saponin failed to activate the retinoic acid receptor in COS cells transiently transfected with the corresponding receptor and retinoic acid responsive reporter plasmids. These results show that total saponin is capable of activating estrogen and androgen receptors.

  • 연구배경: 유육종증은 원인불명의 만성 육아종성병변으로서 전신에 다 생길수 있으나 폐문부 임파절을 위시한 흉곽내에 가장 많이 발생한다. 유육종증의 경과는 다양하여 많은 환자들이 치료없이 자연적으로 치유되나 일부 환자들에서는 병변이 계속진행하여 호흡부전이나 심지어는 사망까지도 초래하지만 어떤 환자가 계속 진행할지를 알려주는 좋은 지표는 아직도 발견되지 못하였다. 최근 염증세포들이 침윤을 위해서는 접착분자들이 활성화된다는 것이 알려짐에 따라 접착분자, 특히 ICAM-1이 이러한 유육종종이 활동성이 지표로 이용될 수 있을 가능성이 제시되었고 본 연구는 이러한 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 유육종증 환자들의 임상양상 및 그 진행경과와 폐포대식세포 AM)에서의 ICAM-1 발현도 및 혈중 가용성 ICAM-1(sICAM-1)농도 변화를 비교분석하였다. 방법 및 대상: 조직검사로 확인된 19명의 폐유육종종환자툴(남자 5명, 여자 14명, 평균 연령 : $39.4{\pm}10.7$세)을 대상으로 하였고, 그 중 7명은 활동성유육종증이었고, 12명은 비활동성 환자들이었다. 진단시 BAL을 시행하여 flow cytomctry로 AM에서의 ICAM-1 발현도를 측정하고, 혈청 및 BAL액내의 sICAM-1 농도를 ELISA 법으로 촉정하였으며, 또한 임상경과중에 혈중 sICAM-1 농도도 측정하였다. 결 과: AM의 ICAM-1 발현도는 활동성환자들에서 (RMFI: $3.68{\pm}1.71$) 비활동성환자들보다 (RMFI: $1.89{\pm}0.75$, P=0.0298) 유의하게 높았고, 혈청 및 BAL 액내 sICAM-1 농도도 활동성 유육종증에서(혈청: $582{\pm}193$ng/ml, BALF: $47.8{\pm}16.5$ng/ml) 비활동성 환자들보다(혈청 : $294{\pm}117$ ng/ml, p=0.0049, BALF: $20.9{\pm}8.3$ ng/ml) 증가되어 있었다. 또한 활동성환자들의 AM의 ICAM-1 발현도 및 (RMFI: $1.51{\pm}0.84$) 혈중 sICAM-1 농도는 steroid치료후 유의하게 감소하였으나($250{\pm}147$ ng/ml), 비활동성 환자들에서는 경과관찰중 유의한 변화는 없었다. 4명의 환자들에서는 부작용으로 steroid를 중지한 후 유육종종이 악화되었는데 이때 혈중 sICAM-1 농도도 같이 증가하였으며 1명에서는 재치료후 증상호전과 함께 sICAM-1농도도 감소하였다. 결 론: 이상의 결과로 미루어 ICAM-1, 특히 혈중 sICAM-1 농도는 유육종증 활성도의 좋은 지표가 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • A novel and efficient tetrahydrofuranyl ring opening method was developed using the highly reactive TFAT reagent in the presence of an acid scavenger, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylpyridine. Various acid sensitive groups are compatible with the reaction condition, making it generally applicable to many tetrahydrofuranyl steroids. Moreover, it is a synthetic equivalent of 'Marker degradation' affording an efficient synthesis of C17-OH rockogenin acetate.

  • Endocrine factors, such as steroid hormones and growth factors, regulate egg productivity including the number of egg production, egg weight, sexual maturity, and the number of small yellow follicles. Especially, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is involved in the regulation of ovulation rate and ovarian follicular development in chickens, and the relationship between IGF-I genotype and egg weight was reported. However, the effect of grwoth factors on egg productivity in Korean Native Ogol Chicken (KNOC) has not been studied. Therefore this study was conducted to identify the relationship among endocrine factors, IGF-I genotypes, and egg productivity. IGF-I genotypes (AA, AB, BB) were represented to 12.6%, 34%, and 53.4%, respectively. AB genotype stimulates the secretion of estradiol and progesterone in serum (30 and 40 week), regulates growth and proliferation of follicles at 60 weeks, and is positively associated with the number of small yellow follicles. Therefore, these results suggest that there are possibility to IGF-I genotypes for a genetic marker in egg productivity of KNOC.
