Abstract

Chlorine dioxide has been used for a disinfectant by exhibiting antimicrobial activity and is also potent to kill insect pests infesting stored grains. This study aimed to extend the usefulness of chlorine dioxide with respect to anticancer and antiviral activities. Cytotoxicity of chlorine dioxide was assessed against five different human cancer cell lines. Chlorine dioxide exhibited significant cytotoxicity against two breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231) and three colorectal cancer cell lines (LoVo, HCT-116, SW-480). This cytotoxicity appeared to be associated with the capacity of chlorine dioxide to induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Compared to control insect cell lines, the cancer cell lines possessed much higher levels of ROS. On the other hand, a treatment of an antioxidant, vitamin E, significantly reduced the cytotoxicity, suggesting that the cytotoxicity was induced by high levels of ROS production. Chlorine dioxide exhibited antiviral activity against different viruses. A baculovirus, Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV), is a dsDNA insect virus and lost its viral activity to form polyhedral viral particles in response to chlorine dioxide. The antiviral activity against AcNPV was dependent on the incubation time with chlorine dioxide. Tobacco mosaic virus is a ssRNA plant virus and was reduced in its population after exposure to chlorine dioxide along with significant decrease of viral symptoms. These results indicate that chlorine dioxide possesses anticancer and antiviral activities probably due to its inducing activity of ROS production.

이산화염소는 높은 항생효과로 살균제로 사용되고 있고, 저곡해충을 대상으로 살충 효과도 보이고 있다. 본 연구는 이 이산화염소의 유용 효과를 넓히기 위해 이 물질이 항암 및 항바이러스 활성을 나타낼 수 있는 지를 검증하였다. 인체에 나타나는 5종의 암 세포주에 대해서 이산화염소의 세포독성을 분석하였다. 유방암 2종 세포주(MCF-7, MDA-MB-231)와 대장암 3종 세포주(LoVo, HCT-116, SW-480) 모두에 대해서 이산화염소는 높은 세포 독성을 나타냈다. 이러한 세포독성은 이산화염소의 활성산소 유발 효과에 기인된다. 이산화염소가 처리된 암세포주는 모두 세포내 높은 활성산소를 형성하였다. 이는 대조구로서 일반 곤충 세포주와 비교하여 훨씬 높은 활성산소를 지녔다. 반면에 항산화제인 비타민 E를 처리하면 이러한 세포독성이 크게 줄어 암 세포에 대해 높은 세포독성은 활성산소에 의해 기인되었다는 것을 입증하였다. 또한 이산화염소는 서로 다른 바이러스에 대해서 항바이러스 활성을 나타냈다. 곤충병원성 바이러스이고 이중 가닥의 DNA 게놈을 지닌 벡큘로바이러스의 일종인 Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV)는 이산화염소 노출에 따라 활성을 잃어 핵다각체 형성 능력이 크게 둔화되었다. AcNPV에 대한 이산화염소의 항바이러스 효과는 반응 시간에 비례하여 증가했다. 식물병원성 바이러스이고 단일가닥의 RNA 게놈을 지닌 담배모자이크바이러스는 이산화염소 노출에 따라 바이러스 함량이 줄었고, 담배에 대한 병원력도 낮아졌다. 따라서 본 연구는 이산화염소가 항암 및 항바이러스 활성을 지니며, 이는 이 물질에 의한 높은 활성산소 유발에 기인된 것으로 판명되었다.
