Abstract

When pine (Pinus densiflora) needles were fractionated into cold water (PD-CW), hot water (PD-HW) and methanol extract (PD-M), PD-M showed potent simulating activity (1.19-fold of the saline control) for proliferation of bone marrow cells mediated by Peyer's patch cells in vitro. MeOH extracts were prepared by homogenization, stirring or reflux to identify the method of methanol extraction, and MeOH extract by reflux method showed significantly highest intestinal immune system modulating activity (1.30-fold) in vitro. The intestinal immune system modulating effect of orally administered PD-M fractionated from pine needles also were studied in mice. Analyzing intestinal immune system modulating activity mediated Peyer's patch cells from C3H/He mice which had been fed with PD-M at different doses for 7 days, 1.0 g/kg of BW/day indicated that the bone marrow cells had proliferated (3.65-fold of 3% EtOH administered group). In addition, the amounts of IL-6 in the culture supernatant of Peyer's patch cells at 1.0 g/kg of BW/day were increased (1.13-fold) whereas the production of GM-CSF was not dose dependent. These results indicate that oral administration of PD-M enhances the secretion of hematopoietic growth factors such as GM-CSF and IL-6 from Peyer's patch cells, and these cytokines also act on modulator of bone marrow cell proliferation.

동결건조된 솔잎(Pinus densiflora needles)으로부터 냉수(PD-CW), 열수(PD-HW)와 메탄올추출물(PD-M)을 분획하여 in vitro에서 Peyer's patch를 경유한 장관면역 활성을 측정한 결과, PD-M 획분에서 유력한 골수세포 증식활성을 나타내었다. 메탄올 추출방법을 확립하기 위하여 MeOH 추출물을 균질화, 교반 또는 환류 등의 방법으로 조제하였을 때, 환류방법으로 조제된 MeOH 추출물에서 유의적(p<0.05)으로 가장 높은 장관면역 활성을 in vitro에서 확인할 수 있었다. 솔잎으로부터 분획된 PD-M을 마우스에 경구 투여하고 Peyer's patch를 분리하여 ex vivo에서의 장관면역 활성도 관찰하였다. 다양한 농도로 1주일 동안 PD-M을 경구투여 한 결과, 1.0 g/kg of BW/day의 용량으로 경구투여 한 C3H/He 마우스의 Peyer's patch로부터 얻은 세포배양 상등액에서 saline 대조군보다 2.5배의 높은 장관면역 활성을 보여주었다(p<0.05). 또한 다양한 농도로 경구투여 된 Peyer's patch 세포의 배양액을 이용하여 측정한 IL-6 생산능은 1.0 g/kg of BW/day의 용량에서 1.13배로 증가하였으나 GM-CSF는 처리 용량에 따라 유의적인 값을 보이지는 않았다. 이러한 결과는 PD-M의 경구투여가 Peyer's patch 세포로부터 GM-CSF와 IL-6 등의 조혈세포 증식인자의 분비를 촉진함을 나타내는 것이며, 이러한 cytokine들이 골수세포 증식의 조절인자로서 작용함을 보여주는 것으로 생각한다.
