최근 피부질환이 도시인과 반려동물에서 크게 증가하고 있다. 즉, 감염성 피부질환은 물론, 미세먼지 등의 환경오염과 건조한 기후, 꽃가루, 집안의 카펫에 서식하는 진드기 등등 직접적으로 접촉성 피부질환을 유발하는 원인 뿐만 아니라 면역과민반응을 유발하는 다양한 알러젠에 노출되는 기회가 점차 커지고 있다. 특히 반려동물은 외부에서 흙이나 잔디밭에서 뒹굴기도 하고, 서로 싸우기도 하며, 쓰레기통 등 환경오염물질에 노출될 기회가 많아 피부염 발생이 빈번하다. 더욱이 반려동물 중 개는 수명이 10~15년으로 10세 이상에서는 감염병, 피부염, 관절염, 호흡기질병 등 염증성 질환으로 고통받게 된다. Recently, skin diseases are greatly increasing in urban residents and companion animals. In other words, exposure to various allergens that cause immune hypersensitivity reactions as well as direct causes of contact skin diseases such as infectious skin diseases, environmental pollution such as fine dust, dry climate, pollen, mites living in carpets in the house, etc. Opportunities are gradually increasing. In particular, companion animals often roll around in the soil or lawn outside, fight with each other, and have many opportunities to be exposed to environmental pollutants such as trash cans. Moreover, among companion animals, dogs have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years, and those over 10 years old suffer from inflammatory diseases such as infectious diseases, dermatitis, arthritis, and respiratory diseases.

관절염은 퇴행성 골관절염(osteoarthritis, OA)과 염증성 류마티스 관절염(rheumatoid arthritis, RA)으로 구별된다. 골관절염은 나이가 들어감에 따라 하중에 의해 관절연골이 퇴행성으로 마모되면서 ebernated bone surfaces가 부딪히면서 통증을 유발하고, 골두가 옆으로 자라 osteophytes가 형성되어 운동장애를 유발한다. 이에 비해 류마티스 관절염은 관절강 내로 neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, plasma cells 등의 염증세포가 침윤되면서 염증성 synovial membranes이 증식하여 pannus를 형성함으로써 심하게 붓고 통증이 유발되며, 관절골두의 변형 및 유합으로 운동장애를 유발한다. 이러한 염증반응은 관절 이외에도 여러 장기를 침범하는 전신성 만성 염증성 질환으로 확대되기도 한다. 류마티스 관절염의 원인은 아직 명확히 밝혀지지는 않았으나 현재는 자가면역 질환의 일종으로 유전적 및 환경적 요인에 의한 면역세포의 편향된 분화가 그 원인인 것으로 보고되고 있다. 즉, CD4+ T helper cells (Th1) 등의 활성화로 collagen과 같은 관절강 내의 proteins에 대한 자가항체가 형성되면 interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-2 (IL-2), complements 등의 chamoattraction에 의해 macrophages가 동원되며, macrophages에서 분비되는 tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)에 의해 다양한 세포로부터 cytokines이 분비됨에 따라 nitric oxide synthase (NOS)와 cyclooxygenase-II (COX-II)가 활성화되어 염증반응이 극대화된다.Arthritis is divided into degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) and inflammatory rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Osteoarthritis causes degenerative wear of articular cartilage due to load with age, causing pain as ebernated bone surfaces collide, and bone heads grow sideways to form osteophytes, resulting in movement disorders. In contrast, in rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory cells such as neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and plasma cells infiltrate into the joint cavity, and inflammatory synovial membranes proliferate to form pannus, causing severe swelling and pain. cause disability This inflammatory response may be extended to a systemic chronic inflammatory disease that invades various organs in addition to the joints. Although the cause of rheumatoid arthritis has not yet been clarified yet, it is now reported that biased differentiation of immune cells by genetic and environmental factors as a kind of autoimmune disease is the cause. In other words, when autoantibodies against proteins in the articular cavity such as collagen are formed by activation of CD4+ T helper cells (Th1), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-2 (IL-2), and complements, etc. Macrophages are mobilized, and as cytokines are secreted from various cells by tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) secreted from macrophages, nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and cyclooxygenase-II (COX-II) are activated to initiate an inflammatory response this is maximized

따라서 아토피 피부염이나 류마티스 관절염 치료를 위해 NOS 억제제인 스테로이드(corticosteroids)와 COX-II 억제제인 비스테로이드성 소염제(non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, NSAIDs)가 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 스테로이드는 장기간 사용 시 효과가 떨어지고 면역기능을 억제하는 심각한 부작용을 유발할 수 있으며, 비스테로이드성 소염제는 일시적인 통증과 염증을 완화시켜 주지만 근본적인 치료에는 한계가 있고 위궤양 등 2차적인 부작용을 야기한다.Therefore, NOS inhibitors corticosteroids and COX-II inhibitors non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for the treatment of atopic dermatitis or rheumatoid arthritis. However, steroids are ineffective when used for a long period of time and can cause serious side effects that suppress immune function. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs temporarily relieve pain and inflammation, but have limitations in fundamental treatment and cause secondary side effects such as stomach ulcers.

한편, 최근에는 줄기세포(stem cells)가 면역조절 기전을 통해 다양한 피부염 및 관절염 등을 효과적으로 개선시켜 주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 예를 들어, 제대혈줄기세포(umbilical cord blood stem cells, UCBSC)를 피하로 주사하면 장기간 아토피 피부염의 재발을 방지할 수 있고, 지방줄기세포(adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, ADMSC)를 관절강이나 혈관 내로 주사하면 관절염을 효과적으로 치료할 수 있고, 신경줄기세포(neural stem cells, NSC)를 혈관 내로 주사했을 때 말초 면역계를 조절함으로써 다발성경화증을 회복시켜 주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하지만 줄기세포를 효율적으로 사용하려면, 환자로부터 반복적으로 채취하여 충분한숫자로 증식배양해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 한 번 채취한 줄기세포를 불멸화하여 계속 사용할 수 있는 줄기세포주(stem cell line)를 확립할 경우, ① 반복적으로 채취할 때의 환자의 고통을 줄여 줄 수 있고, ② 줄기세포 시술비용이 크게 감소하며, ③ 줄기세포의 특성이 지속적으로 유지되어 동일한 효과를 얻을 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, ④ 나이 많은 환자로부터 얻은 줄기세포의 활력/증식능 저하 문제를 해결할 수 있다.Meanwhile, it has recently been found that stem cells effectively improve various dermatitis and arthritis through an immunoregulatory mechanism. For example, subcutaneous injection of umbilical cord blood stem cells (UCBSC) can prevent long-term recurrence of atopic dermatitis, and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSC) can be injected into the joint cavity or blood vessels. Injections can effectively treat arthritis, and intravascular injections of neural stem cells (NSCs) have been shown to reverse multiple sclerosis by regulating the peripheral immune system. However, in order to efficiently use stem cells, there is a difficulty in that they must be repeatedly collected from a patient and grown and cultured in sufficient numbers. Therefore, if a stem cell line that can be used continuously is established by immortalizing stem cells once harvested, the patient's pain during repeated collection can be reduced, and the cost of stem cell treatment can be greatly reduced. ③ The characteristics of stem cells are continuously maintained to obtain the same effect, and ④ the problem of reduced vitality/proliferative ability of stem cells obtained from elderly patients can be solved.

세포 이식에 사용되는 줄기세포는 크게 배아줄기세포와 성체줄기세포로 구분된다. 배아줄기세포는 inner cell mass에서 기원하며 체내의 모든 세포로 분화할 수 있지만 종양으로 발전할 수 있어서 아직 치료제로 사용하기에는 기술적으로 풀어야 할 문제가 많이 남아 있다. 반면, 성체줄기세포는 성숙한 개체에서 얻을 수 있으며, 종양발생 위험이 없이 활용할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 성체줄기세포는 골수, 제대혈, 지방조직 등에서 얻을 수 있는데, 골수줄기세포는 채취할 때 고통이 따르며, 제대혈줄기세포는 출산 시에만 채취할 수 있는데 동물이 가정에서 출산할 때는 미생물 오염이 심하여 동물병원에서 출산할 때 무균 채취해야 한다. 이에 비해 지방줄기세포는 양이 많고, 동물병원에서 쉽게 무균 채취할 수 있다.Stem cells used for cell transplantation are largely classified into embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells originate from the inner cell mass and can differentiate into all cells in the body, but can develop into tumors, so many technical problems remain to be solved before they can be used as therapeutic agents. On the other hand, adult stem cells can be obtained from mature individuals and have the advantage of being utilized without the risk of tumor development. Adult stem cells can be obtained from bone marrow, cord blood, adipose tissue, etc. Bone marrow stem cells are painful to collect, and cord blood stem cells can only be collected at birth. Aseptically harvested at birth. In contrast, adipose stem cells are large in quantity and can be easily collected aseptically at veterinary hospitals.

대한민국 등록특허 제10-1740357호Republic of Korea Patent No. 10-1740357

세포의 노화는 체내에서 일생 동안 진행되는 현상으로, 세포에 내재하는 노화프로그램에 의한 세포생리활성의 변화에 기인한다. 세포 불멸화의 방법으로는 크게 SV40, hTERT, HPV E6/E7, EBV, MycT58A, RasV12 및 p53 등의 유전자를 탑재하는 방법이 있으며, 이 방법들은 복제노화(replicative senescence)를 극복하고 성공적으로 세포분화를 무한히 영속하도록 유도한다. 세포 불멸화를 위한 일반적인 전략으로 simian virus 40 (SV40) T 항원을 이용하는 것인데, 최근 연구에서 SV40T 항원이 telomerase 활성을 유도할 수 있음이 보고되어 다양한 분야에서 손쉽게 불멸화를 유도할 수 있는 방법으로 인정받고 있다. 가장 최근에는 chromatin 말단소체(telomere)의 길이를 유지하도록 돕는 telomerase reverse transcription protein (TERT)이 정상세포의 불멸화 시 안정한 유전형질과 특정 표현형질 마커들을 유지하는 특성을 나타내는 등 방법론적으로 우수한 불멸화 전략으로 보고되었다. 하지만 상피세포와 같은 특정 세포에서 TERT의 과발현이 세포 불멸화를 유도하지 못하거나 세포사멸을 유도하는 등의 문제를 내포하고도 있어 일반적인 불멸화 방법으로는 제한성이 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 TERT 과발현이 줄기세포(특히, mesenchymal stem cells, MSC)에서 그 줄기세포의 특성을 증가시킨다는 보고가 있어 전략적인 불멸화 방법으로 고려할 수 있다. Cellular aging is a phenomenon that progresses throughout life in the body, and is caused by changes in cell physiological activity by aging programs inherent in cells. Cell immortalization methods include methods of loading genes such as SV40, hTERT, HPV E6/E7, EBV, MycT58A, RasV12 and p53, and these methods overcome replicative senescence and successfully differentiate cells. induces to perpetuate indefinitely. A general strategy for cell immortalization is to use the simian virus 40 (SV40) T antigen. A recent study reported that the SV40T antigen can induce telomerase activity, and it is recognized as a method that can easily induce immortalization in various fields. . Most recently, telomerase reverse transcription protein (TERT), which helps to maintain the length of chromatin telomeres, is a methodologically superior immortalization strategy that shows the characteristics of maintaining stable genetic traits and specific phenotypic markers during immortalization of normal cells. reported However, overexpression of TERT in specific cells such as epithelial cells has problems such as failing to induce cell immortalization or inducing apoptosis, so there are limitations as a general immortalization method. Nevertheless, there is a report that overexpression of TERT increases the characteristics of stem cells (especially mesenchymal stem cells, MSC), so it can be considered as a strategic immortalization method.

본 발명자들은 이와 같이 전반적인 기술고찰을 통해 human papillomavirus (HPV)의 E6/E7이 각각 hTERT의 프로모터 활성화와 telomerase 활성화를 도와 안정적인 세포의 불멸화를 성공적으로 유도할 전략으로 판단되었다. 아울러 본 발명에서는 형질전환 벡터(transfection vector)에 저항성을 띠는 특징을 감안하여 불멸화 성공률을 높이는 방법으로 viral vector (retroviral 및 lentiviral) systems을 도입하였다. Retroviral vector는 분열하는 세포에서 효과적으로 불멸화 유도가 가능하며, 이는 retroviral vector가 능동적으로 핵막을 통과할 수는 없지만, 세포가 분열하는 동안 나타나는 핵막의 disintegration 과정에서 viral DNA가 유전체로 들어가 integration됨으로써 가능한 방법으로 안정적인 불멸화가 가능하다. 반면, lentiviral vector는 HIV genome인 복합구조로 구성되어 있는데, retrovirus가 가지는 기본유전자 (env, gag, pol) 이외에 조절유전자 (tat, rev)와 보조유전자 (vpr, vif, vpu, nef)를 더 가지고 있어 핵막을 능동적으로 통과하여 분열세포 및 비분열세포의 불멸화에 사용될 수 있다. 이는 HIV 유전자 중 vpr 유전자, gag 유전자와 integrase 효소에 의해 만들어지는 이입 전 복합물질이 대상 세포의 핵막을 직접 통과할 수 있는 장점이 중요한 전략이 될 수 있으며, 이런 이유로 유전자 도입의 방법으로 in vitro 및 in vivo 모두에서 각광받는 viral vector에 속한다. 숙주세포로의 유전자 전달을 위해 필요한 바이러스 입자들은 3가지 plasmids 즉, 전달하고자 하는 유전자가 재조합된 바이러스 vector, 재조합 바이러스 생산에 필요한 단백질 plasmids (예, gag, pol, tat, rev, nef, vpr, vpu and vif)를 포함하는 packaging plasmid, 그리고 피막(vesicular stomatitis virus G: VSV-G) 단백질 plasmid에 의한 일시적 transduction에 의해 보통 3×106 IU/mL 정도의 재조합 바이러스 입자를 얻을 수 있다.Through this general technical review, the present inventors determined that E6/E7 of human papillomavirus (HPV) would be a strategy to successfully induce immortalization of stable cells by assisting promoter activation and telomerase activation of hTERT, respectively. In addition, in the present invention, viral vector (retroviral and lentiviral) systems were introduced as a method of increasing the success rate of immortalization in consideration of the resistance to transfection vectors. Retroviral vectors can effectively induce immortalization in dividing cells, and although retroviral vectors cannot actively pass through the nuclear membrane, viral DNA enters and integrates into the genome during the nuclear membrane disintegration process that occurs during cell division. Stable immortality is possible. On the other hand, the lentiviral vector is composed of the complex structure of the HIV genome, and has additional regulatory genes (tat, rev) and auxiliary genes (vpr, vif, vpu, nef) in addition to the basic genes (env, gag, pol) of the retrovirus. It can actively pass through the nuclear membrane and be used for immortalization of dividing and non-dividing cells. For this reason, the advantage of being able to directly pass through the nuclear membrane of the target cell can be an important strategy for complex substances made by the vpr gene, gag gene and integrase enzyme among the HIV genes, and for this reason, in vitro and It belongs to a viral vector that is in the spotlight both in vivo. Viral particles required for gene transfer to host cells include three plasmids: a viral vector in which the gene to be transferred is recombined, and protein plasmids required for recombinant virus production (e.g., gag, pol, tat, rev, nef, vpr, vpu and vif), and transient transduction by vesicular stomatitis virus G (VSV-G) protein plasmid, usually about 3×10 6 IU/mL of recombinant virus particles can be obtained.

따라서 본 발명에서는 줄기세포의 불멸화 전략으로 분열세포와 비분열세포 모두에 감염시킬 수 있는 능률을 가진 lentiviral vector를 활용하여 세포복제노화(replicative senescence)를 억제함으로써 불멸화세포시스템을 구축하고자 하였다. HPV의 E7 단백질은 기능·구조적으로 adenoviurs의 E1A 단백질과 유사하며 일부 유형의 세포를 불멸화하는 데에도 사용된다. E7 단백질은 그 자체로 epithelial cells을 불멸화시킬 수 있지만, E6 및 E7의 발현은 형질전환효율을 증가시킨다. 불멸화 유도를 위해 Accession No. NC_001526.2 정보를 탑재한 Lenti-HPV-16 E6/E7 particles (도 1)을 적용하였으며, 각 과정은 각 시약의 제조사 지침에 따라 수행하였다. 상기 과정에 따라 제조된 불멸화 고양이줄기세포를 기탁번호: KCTC 14390BP 하에 기탁하였다. Therefore, in the present invention, as a stem cell immortalization strategy, an immortalized cell system was constructed by using a lentiviral vector capable of infecting both dividing and non-dividing cells and suppressing cell replicative senescence. The HPV E7 protein is functionally and structurally similar to the E1A protein of adenoviurs and is also used to immortalize some types of cells. E7 protein itself can immortalize epithelial cells, but expression of E6 and E7 increases transformation efficiency. To induce immortalization, Accession No. Lenti-HPV-16 E6/E7 particles (Fig. 1) loaded with NC_001526.2 information were applied, and each process was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions for each reagent. Immortalized feline stem cells prepared according to the above procedure were deposited under Accession Number: KCTC 14390BP.

Thereafter, in order to obtain a culture medium (ERCM) rich in exosomes from stem cells, TNF-α was added to the culture medium at a concentration of 50 ng/mL and the oxygen (O 2 ) concentration was lowered to 3%, and then 24 After culturing for a period of time, the culture solution was collected, filtered through a filter, and concentrated 10 times at low temperature to obtain a stem cell-derived exosome-rich culture solution according to the present invention. On the other hand, as a comparative example, in the process of obtaining a culture solution containing exosomes from immortalized stem cells, stem cell normal culture medium (CM) cultured in a normal state while maintaining the oxygen concentration at 21% without treatment with TNF-α was obtained.

그 결과, 본 발명에 따른 불멸화 고양이줄기세포 및 이의 배양액의 경우 Carrageenan로 인한 피부 삼출물 및 염증지표, 염증세포의 침윤 및 피부염 억제 효능을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라, 수술적 퇴행성 관절염(연골결손) 치료 효능이 우수함을 확인하였으며, 특히 불멸화 고양이줄기세포를 함유한 배양액에 TNF-α를 처리하고, 1~5%의 저산소농도 조건 하에서 12~72시간 배양하여 수득한 불멸화 고양이줄기세포 엑소좀 풍부 배양액의 경우, TNF-α의 처리 없이 정상상태로 배양한 배양액에 비해서 더욱 우수한 피부염 및 관절염 치료 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. As a result, in the case of the immortalized feline stem cell and its culture medium according to the present invention, it not only shows the effect of inhibiting skin exudate and inflammatory markers, inflammatory cell infiltration and dermatitis due to Carrageenan, but also has excellent treatment efficacy for surgical degenerative arthritis (cartilage defect) was confirmed, in particular, in the case of immortalized feline stem cell exosome-rich culture obtained by treating the culture medium containing immortalized feline stem cells with TNF-α and culturing for 12 to 72 hours under 1-5% hypoxic conditions, TNF It was found that there was a more excellent treatment effect for dermatitis and arthritis compared to the culture medium cultured in a normal state without treatment with -α.

The expression level of the gene was checked using the β-actin primer as a standard, and the primers were prepared based on the information described in the Gene bank and reagents.

(3) 줄기세포 불멸화 확인(3) Confirmation of immortalization of stem cells

줄기세포 불멸화 여부를 확인하고자, primary cells (대조군)과 함께 세포의 모양(morphology)를 비교하고, pLenti-III-HPV-16 E6/E7 particles 삽입으로 인한 HPV 유전자 발현을 RT-PCR로 분석하여 확인하였다. 불멸화된 고양이지방줄기세포는 배양과정에서 약간의 morphology 변화가 관찰되었다. 즉, 불멸화 세포에서 primary cells에 비해 세포의 길이가 약간 짧아졌으며(도 3A), doubling time 주기가 감소하여 세포의 성장속도가 빨라진 것으로 확인되었다. 유전자 발현은 불멸화된 세포에서 HPV 유전자가 과발현된 것이 확인되었다(도 3B).To confirm stem cell immortality, the morphology of the cells was compared with primary cells (control), and HPV gene expression due to the insertion of pLenti-III-HPV-16 E6/E7 particles was analyzed by RT-PCR and confirmed. did Immortalized feline adipose stem cells showed slight morphology changes during the culture process. That is, it was confirmed that the length of the immortalized cells was slightly shorter than that of the primary cells (FIG. 3A), and the doubling time period was reduced, resulting in increased cell growth rate. Gene expression confirmed that the HPV gene was overexpressed in the immortalized cells (FIG. 3B).

또한, 정상(비불멸화) 고양이줄기세포(fADMSC)와 불멸화 고양이줄기세포 (im-fADMSC)를 정상의 산소농도(20%)와 저산소농도(3%)에서 2일 동안 배양하면서 생존율 변화를 측정한 결과, 비불멸화 줄기세포는 정상 산소농도에서 2일만에 2배 가까이(168%) 증식했지만 저산소농도에서는 대부분 사멸하여(5%) 저산소 환경에서 생존하지 못하는 것으로 확인되었다(도 4). 이에 비해 불멸화 줄기세포는 정상 산소농도에서 2일만에 2배 이상(215%) 증식하여 정상세포보다 빠른 증식율을 나타냈으며, 저산소 농도에서도 147%의 증식능을 나타내 저산소 환경에 저항성을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다.In addition, normal (non-immortalized) feline stem cells (fADMSC) and immortalized feline stem cells (im-fADMSC) were cultured for 2 days in normal oxygen concentration (20%) and hypoxia (3%), and the change in viability was measured. As a result, it was confirmed that the non-immortalized stem cells proliferated nearly twice (168%) in 2 days in normal oxygen concentration, but were mostly killed (5%) in hypoxic concentration and did not survive in hypoxic environment (FIG. 4). In contrast, immortalized stem cells proliferated more than twice (215%) in 2 days in normal oxygen concentration, showing a faster proliferation rate than normal cells, and showed resistance to hypoxic environment by showing 147% proliferation ability even in low oxygen concentration.

(5) 줄기세포 엑소좀 함량 분석 결과(5) Stem cell exosome content analysis result

불멸화 줄기세포를 산소농도 21%에서 배양한 정상배양액(CM)과 TNF-α 처리 후 산소농도 3%에서 저산소배양한 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)의 엑소좀 함량을 CD9에 대한 RT-PCR로 분석한 결과, ERCM에서 CM에 비해 50배 이상의 CD9 지표가 검출되어 ERCM 내 고농도 엑소좀 함유가 확인되었다(도 5).Analysis of exosome content in normal culture medium (CM) of immortalized stem cells cultured at 21% oxygen concentration and exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) cultured in hypoxia at 3% oxygen concentration after TNF-α treatment by RT-PCR for CD9 As a result, 50 times more CD9 index was detected in ERCM than in CM, confirming the high concentration of exosomes contained in ERCM (FIG. 5).

실시예 2. 줄기세포의 피부염 치료효능Example 2. Dermatitis treatment efficacy of stem cells

(1) 줄기세포와 줄기세포 배양액의 Carrageenan 유도 피부염 억제효과(삼출액 및 염증지표물질)(1) Carrageenan-induced dermatitis inhibitory effect of stem cells and stem cell culture media (exudate and inflammatory markers)

Carrageenan으로 유도한 피부염으로 인한 피부 삼출액량 및 삼출액 내 염증지표물질에 대한 고양이줄기세포와 줄기세포 배양액의 억제효과를 평가하였다. 실험 첫 날 마우스 등의 털을 제거하고, 10 mL의 멸균공기를 피하로 주사하고, 2일 및 5일 후 5 mL의 공기를 추가 주사해 공기주머니(air-pouch)를 유지하였다. 공기주머니 내로 생리식염수에 1%로 희석한 1 mL carrageenan에 3x104 cells의 정상(비불멸화) 고양이줄기세포(fADMSC), 불멸화 고양이줄기세포(im-fADMSC), 100 μL의 정상배양액(CM) 또는 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)을 혼합하여 주사하고, 6시간 후 1 mL의 생리식염수로 공기주머니를 세척해 내었다. 회수한 주입한 1 mL를 뺀 세척액량, 즉 삼출액량을 측정하고, 삼출액 내의 알부민 단백질과 염증지표물질[tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), nitric oxide (NO) 및 prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)]을 혈액생화학분석기, ELISA 키트 및 Griess 시약으로 분석하였다.The inhibitory effects of feline stem cells and stem cell cultures on the amount of skin exudate and inflammatory markers in the exudate caused by carrageenan-induced dermatitis were evaluated. On the first day of the experiment, the hair on the back of the mouse was removed, 10 mL of sterile air was subcutaneously injected, and after 2 and 5 days, 5 mL of air was additionally injected to maintain an air-pouch. 3x10 4 cells of normal (non-immortalized) feline stem cells (fADMSC), immortalized feline stem cells (im-fADMSC), 100 μL of normal culture medium (CM) or Exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) was mixed and injected, and after 6 hours, the air bag was washed out with 1 mL of physiological saline. The amount of washing liquid minus 1 mL of the recovered injection, that is, the amount of exudate, was measured, and albumin protein and inflammatory markers [tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), nitric oxide in the exudate were measured. (NO) and prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 )] were analyzed with a blood biochemistry analyzer, ELISA kit and Griess reagent.

시험 결과, Carrageenan 투여로 인한 피부염으로 삼출액량이 2배 가까이 증가하고, 삼출액 내 알부민 농도가 2.5배 상승하였는 바, 이러한 혈액성분 누출은 3x104 cells의 정상(비불멸화) 줄기세포(fADMSC)와 불멸화 줄기세포(im-fADMSC) 투여로 완화되었으며, 특히 불멸화 줄기세포가 비불멸화 줄기세포에 비해 우수하였다 (표 2). 또한 Carrageenan에 의해 크게 증가했던 삼출액 내 염증성 사이토카인(TNF-α 및 IL-6)과 염증매개물질(NO 및 PGE2) 역시 줄기세포 복합투여로 억제되었으며, 이러한 효과 또한 비불멸화 줄기세포보다 불멸화 줄기세포가 우수하였다. 더 나아가 줄기세포 대신 100 μL의 줄기세포 배양액을 투여했을 때에도 삼출액 및 염증지표물질이 감소하였는 바, 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)이 정상배양액(CM)보다 우수하였다.As a result of the test, the amount of exudate increased nearly 2 times due to dermatitis caused by administration of Carrageenan, and the concentration of albumin in the exudate increased 2.5 times. It was relieved by cell (im-fADMSC) administration, and in particular, immortalized stem cells were superior to non-immortalized stem cells (Table 2). In addition, inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and inflammatory mediators (NO and PGE 2 ) in the exudate, which were significantly increased by Carrageenan, were also suppressed by the combined administration of stem cells, and these effects were also reduced by immortalized stem cells than non-immortalized stem cells. Cells were excellent. Furthermore, even when 100 μL of stem cell culture medium was administered instead of stem cells, exudate and inflammatory markers were reduced, and exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) was superior to normal culture medium (CM).

(2) 줄기세포의 Carrageenan 유도 피부염 억제효과(염증세포 침윤)(2) Carrageenan-induced dermatitis inhibitory effect of stem cells (inflammatory cell infiltration)

앞의 공기주머니 세척액 내 염증세포, 즉 총백혈구(white blood cells, WBC), 중호성백혈구(neutrophils), 산호성백혈구(eosinophils), 염기호성백혈구(basophils), 단핵구(monocytes) 및 림프구(lymphocytes)를 세포측정기(coulter counter)로 분석하였다.Inflammatory cells in the preceding air bag lavage fluid, i.e. white blood cells (WBC), neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes and lymphocytes was analyzed with a coulter counter.

시험 결과, Carrageenan 투여로 인한 피부염으로 총백혈구수, 특히 중호성백혈구수가 10배 가까이 증가한 반면, 이러한 백혈구 침윤은 정상(비불멸화) 줄기세포(fADMSC)와 불멸화 줄기세포(im-fADMSC) 투여로 완화되었는데, 특히 불멸화 줄기세포가 비불멸화 줄기세포에 비해 우수하였다(표 3). 또한 carrageenan에 의해 크게 증가했던 단핵구 및 림프구 침윤 역시 줄기세포 복합투여로 억제되었으며, 이러한 효과 또한 비불멸화 줄기세포보다 불멸화 줄기세포가 우수하였다. 더 나아가 줄기세포 대신 100 μL의 줄기세포 배양액을 투여했을 때에도 염증세포 침윤이 억제되었는 바, 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)이 정상배양액(CM)보다 우수하였다.As a result of the test, the total white blood cell count, especially the mesophil count, increased nearly 10-fold due to dermatitis caused by Carrageenan administration, while this leukocyte infiltration was alleviated by the administration of normal (non-immortalized) stem cells (fADMSC) and immortalized stem cells (im-fADMSC). In particular, immortalized stem cells were superior to non-immortalized stem cells (Table 3). In addition, monocyte and lymphocyte infiltration, which had been significantly increased by carrageenan, were also inhibited by the combined administration of stem cells, and these effects were also superior to immortalized stem cells than non-immortalized stem cells. Furthermore, even when 100 μL of stem cell culture medium was administered instead of stem cells, inflammatory cell infiltration was suppressed, and exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) was superior to normal culture medium (CM).

(3) 줄기세포의 Carrageenan 유도 피부염 억제효과(현미경소견)(3) Carrageenan-induced dermatitis inhibitory effect of stem cells (microscopic findings)

앞의 공기주머니 내막을 포함한 피부조직을 채취하여 4% 중성포르말린 용액으로 고정한 후, 파라핀 절편을 만들어 hematoxylin & eosin (H&E)으로 염색하고, 광학현미경 하에서 피부염증반응을 관찰하였다.Skin tissue including the inner membrane of the air sac was collected, fixed in 4% neutral formalin solution, paraffin sections were made, stained with hematoxylin & eosin (H&E), and skin inflammatory reactions were observed under an optical microscope.

그 결과, Carrageenan 투여로 인한 피부염 소견으로 피하조직에 다량의 염증세포가 침윤되어 두꺼운 층을 형성하고 있었지만, 이러한 염증소견은 정상(비불멸화) 줄기세포(fADMSC)와 불멸화 줄기세포(im-fADMSC) 투여로 확연히 완화되었는데, 특히 불멸화 줄기세포가 비불멸화 줄기세포에 비해 훨씬 우수하였다(도 6). 더 나아가 줄기세포 대신 100 μL의 줄기세포 배양액을 투여했을 때에도 염증반응이 상당히 완화되었는 바, 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)이 정상배양액(CM)보다 우수하였다.As a result, a large amount of inflammatory cells infiltrated into the subcutaneous tissue and formed a thick layer due to dermatitis due to Carrageenan administration. It was significantly alleviated by administration, and in particular, immortalized stem cells were much better than non-immortalized stem cells (FIG. 6). Furthermore, even when 100 μL of the stem cell culture medium was administered instead of the stem cells, the inflammatory reaction was significantly alleviated, and the exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) was superior to the normal culture medium (CM).

연골결손(articular cartilage defect, ACD) 모델 제작에는 성장판 생장이 멈춘 생후 12주 이상의 2.8-3.2 kg의 수컷 New Zealand White (NZW) 토끼를 사용하였다. 토끼에 Zoletil 50 (15 mg/kg)과 Rompum (5 mg/kg)을 근육 내로 주사하여 전신마취하였다. 우측 무릎 주변의 털을 제거하고 Povidone과 70% ethanol로 피부를 소독하고, 수술 부위를 무균 조작하여 수술을 개시하였다. 무릎 관절의 내측 피부를 절개하고 근막과 관절낭을 절개한 후 무릎뼈를 외측으로 젖혀 관절낭을 노출시켰다. 대퇴골의 내과부(무릎관절고랑 정중앙)에 직경 1 mm 드릴을 이용하여 직경 5 mm, 깊이 2 mm의 연골결손 부위를 만들고, 소파기로 결손부위 내의 연골을 모두 제거한 후 관절낭을 봉합하였다. 이어 피하조직과 피부를 봉합한 후 povidone으로 소독하였다. 연골이 제거된 시점에서 30분 후, 1x106 cells의 정상(비불멸화) 줄기세포(fADMSC), 불멸화 줄기세포(im-fADMSC), 100 μL의 정상배양액(CM) 또는 엑소좀풍부배양액(ERCM)을 관절강 내로 주사하였다. 수술 후 3일간 항생제 Foxolin (10 mg/kg)과 진통제 Maritrol (3 mg/kg)을 매일 2회 근육 내로 주사하였고, 이후 3일간 Foxolin을 매일 1회 추가로 처치하였다.To construct the articular cartilage defect (ACD) model, male New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits aged 12 weeks or older and weighing 2.8-3.2 kg with growth plate growth stopped were used. Rabbits were anesthetized by intramuscular injection of Zoletil 50 (15 mg/kg) and Rompum (5 mg/kg). The hair around the right knee was removed, the skin was disinfected with Povidone and 70% ethanol, and the surgical site was operated aseptically to initiate the operation. The inner skin of the knee joint was incised, and the fascia and joint capsule were incised, and then the kneecap was bent outward to expose the joint capsule. A cartilage defect with a diameter of 5 mm and a depth of 2 mm was created using a drill with a diameter of 1 mm in the medial part of the femur (center of the knee joint sulcus). After removing all the cartilage in the defect with a sofa, the joint capsule was sutured. Then, the subcutaneous tissue and skin were sutured and disinfected with povidone. 30 minutes after the cartilage was removed, 1x10 6 cells of normal (non-immortalized) stem cells (fADMSC), immortalized stem cells (im-fADMSC), 100 μL of normal culture medium (CM) or exosome-rich culture medium (ERCM) was injected into the joint cavity. After surgery, the antibiotic Foxolin (10 mg/kg) and the analgesic Maritrol (3 mg/kg) were intramuscularly injected twice daily for 3 days, and Foxolin was additionally treated once daily for 3 days.
