Abstract

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by chronic relapsing inflammation and is associated with hyper-production of immunoglobulin E (IgE). Recent studies have suggested that one of the treatments to alleviate symptoms of AD could be a supplementation of probiotics, Lactobacillus, Rhamnosus, Bifidus, etc. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of probiotics on immune parameters in NC/Nga mice treated with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitro-benzene (DNCB). To induce atopic dermatitis, DNCB was treated to the back of mice for 2 weeks. Then, NC/Nga mice were divided into the four experimental groups randomly. Probiotics fragment, probiotics with other complex (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium lactis Bb-12LbL, L. plantarum K8, L. plantarum K8 fragment, ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid), antihistamine, and distilled water were administrated orally to the NC/Nga mouse for 4 weeks of experimental period. The groups were probiotics fragment group (DPF), probiotics with other complex group (DPOC), antihistamine group (DAH) and distilled water group (DDW) as a control group. The levels of serum IgE, interlukin-4 (IL-4), interlukin-5 (IL-5), interferon-gamma (IFN-${\gamma}$) and spleenocyte IgE were measured. The levels of serum IgE were significantly different among the four experimental groups. Before the treatment, there was no differences among the groups. However, from the first through the third week of the treatments, the levels of serum IgE in the probiotics (DPF, DPOC) and antihistamine (DAH) groups were lower than those of control group (p < 0.05). The levels of serum IL-4 of DPOC group was significantly lower than that of control group (p < 0.05) and serum IL-5 levels of DPF, DPOC, and DAH groups were significantly lower than that of control group. The levels of serum IFN-${\gamma}$ were not different among the four experimental groups. The levels of serum IgE in supernatant of spleen lymphocytes were not significantly different among the groups. These results suggest that probiotics supplementation showed partial effectiveness in the DNCB treated NC/Nga mice via modulation of IgE level and IL-4, IL-5 production. Based on these findings, probiotics exhibited the inhibitory effect via IL-4 production thereby inhibited the production of IgE in atopic animal model NC/Nga mice.

아토피 피부염에서 유산균의 유익성에 대해서는 이미 많이 알려져 있고 우리나라 전통식품인 김치유산균의 유익성에 대한 연구도 많이 진행되었으나 아토피 피부염에서 김치 유산균의 효과에 관한 연구는 아직 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 아토피 동물 모델인 NC/Nga mice에 김치유산균에서 추출한 유산균(L.plantarum K8)의 파쇄물과 유산균 및 ${\gamma}$-리놀렌산 복합체(L.rhamnosus GG 생균, B. lactis Bb-12Lb 생균, L. plantarum K8생균, L. plantarum K8 파쇄물, ${\gamma}$-리놀렌산)를 경구 투여한 후 혈청 면역지표(IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IFN-${\gamma}$)와 비장 배양액에서 IgE 농도를 측정하였다. 실험동물의 체중 및 사료섭취량은 사육기간이 지남에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 각 군 간에 유의적인 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 실험 시작 시 혈청 IgE 농도는 각 군 간에 차이가 나타나지 않았으나 실험 전 기간 4주 동안 유산균 파쇄물(DPF), 유산균 및 ${\gamma}$-리놀렌산 복합체(DPOC), 항히스타민(DAH)을 섭취한 군에서 증류수(DDW)만을 섭취군에 비하여 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 혈청 IFN-${\gamma}$ 농도는 각 군에서 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았으나 혈청 IL-4 농도는 유산균 및 ${\gamma}$-리놀렌산 복합체를 섭취한 군(DPOC)에서 대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 혈청 IL-5 농도는 유산균 파쇄물(DPF), 유산균 및 ${\gamma}$-리놀렌산 복합체(DPOC), 항히스타민(DAH)을 섭취한 군에서 모두 대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 낮았다. 비장 임파구 배양 상층액의 IgE 농도는 각 군에서 군 간 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 결론적으로, 아토피 동물모델 NC/Nga mice에 유산균 파쇄물(DPF)과 유산균 및 감마리놀렌산 복합체(DPOC)의 경구투여는 혈청 IgE, IL-4, IL-5를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났으며, 김치로부터 추출한 프로바이오틱스를 아토피 환자에게 섭취시켰을 때 IgE, IL-4, IL-5 감소와 같은 긍정적인 효과를 볼 수 있을 것으로 기대한다. 여러 종류의 프로바이오틱스는 아토피의 증상완화 또는 면역 체계에 미치는 영향과 정확한 메카니즘을 밝히기 위하여 과학적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
