Abstract

Plantago asiatica L., observed frequently in East Asia, is a known herb used in traditional medical remedies several studies report that P. asiatica L has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. To determine the production of cytokines (IL-2, $IFN-{\gamma}$, and $TNF-{\alpha}$) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and non-LPS-stimulated macrophages, an ELISA assay was conducted using cytokine kits. Mice splenocytes were cultured for 48 h with various concentrations of P. asiatica L. (5, 10, 50, 100, 250, 500, and $1,000{\mu}g/mL$) or with mitogens (ConA or LPS). P. asiatica L. increased the proliferation of mice splenocytes, especially under the condition of its concentration ranging from 250 to $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. In addition, Plantago asiatica L. notably induced cytokine production of (IL-2, $IFN-{\gamma}$, and $TNF-{\alpha}$) at its concentration of $250{\sim}500{\mu}g/mL$. These results suggest that supplementation with P. asiatica L. water extracts may play a potential role in enhancing immune function by mediating splenocyte proliferation and cytokine production through its anti-inflammatory activit.

질경이 열수 추출물 첨가가 마이스의 면역세포 증식 미치는 영향에 대한 연구 결과, 음의 대조군에 비해 질경이 열수추출물을 첨가한 경우 모든 농도에서 비장세포 활성이 높게 나타났으며, 특히 $250{\sim}500{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 한편, 대식세포 활성화로 유도된 cytokine 분비량 $IFN-{\gamma}$, IL-2, $TNF-{\alpha}$ cytokine측정 결과, IL-2는 유의성을 보이지 않았으나, $IFN-{\gamma}$, $TNF-{\alpha}$ 모두 $250{\sim}500{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 유의적인 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 이상의 나타난 결과로 질경이 열수 추출물이 마이스 비장세포 생성을 유도하고, cytokine 분비량에도 영향을 줄 것으로 보여 진다. 따라서 질경이 물 추출물이 면역 기관과 면역세포를 자극하여 면역능 증가에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.
