Composition for Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer and Beauty Expenses Composition Comprising Extract of Inulae Radix}

The present invention relates to a novel use of civil extract. Specifically, the present invention relates to a therapeutic composition and cosmetic composition containing a civil extract as an active ingredient exhibiting excellent preventive or therapeutic efficacy against pancreatic cancer.

Among the major diseases of modern people, researches on the treatment and diagnosis of cancer are relatively active, mainly in lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, and the like. However, studies on esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer with low incidence are relatively low.

The pancreas produces insulin, which helps the body convert glucose into energy, and enzymes that help the body digest food. Pancreatic cancer is a malignant growth of the pancreas, mainly occurring in cells of the pancreatic duct. The disease is the ninth most common form of cancer, but it is the fourth and fifth most common cause of cancer deaths in men and women, respectively. Pancreatic cancer has a five-year survival rate of less than 3%, most of which is always fatal. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma) in the pancreatic cancer, which accounts for more than 90% of pancreatic cancer generally refers to pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is also called pancreatic adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, or pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

 Like many other malignant diseases, pancreatic cancer arises from the accumulation of acquired mutations. Multiple genetic and epigenetic changes, including activation of protocogenes, inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, and malformations of maintenance genes, may result in the development, sustained growth, and metastasis of pancreatic cancer. Related to Accumulated mutations in such genes are known to occur within predictable time during the "PanINs" (Pancreatic Intraepithelial Neoplsia) phase (Hruban et al. (2000) Clin Cancer Res 6: 2969-2972; Kern (2002) Cancer Biol Therapy 1: 607-613; Li et al. (2004) Lancet 363: 1049-1057). K-ras mutations occur about half of PanIN-1. The PanIN-2 stage is represented by additional changes and increases in the rate of K-ras mutations, and the appearance of multiple p16 malformations, and p53 protein family expression, which may indicate the presence of p53 mutations, is sometimes seen in more advanced PanINs. Loss of the tumor suppressor genes, TP53, DPC4 and BRCA2, appears to occur late in the development of pancreatic tumorigenesis, PanIN-3. Specifically, more than 85% of pancreatic adenocarcinomas have K-ras gene point mutations activated in pancreatic cancer development (Li et al. (2004) Lancet 363: 1049-1057; Xiong (2004) Cancer Chem Pharm 54: S69-77). K-ras mutations induce constitutive activation of Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK, an intracellular signaling pathway that induces cell proliferation and confers transgene properties on cells containing point mutations. Cause. Ras mutations are not associated with tumor stage or prognosis, and indicate that the K-ras oncogene may be involved in the onset of carcinogenesis but not in the likelihood or promotion of human pancreatic cancer. One of the major downstream targets of the ras family is phosphoinositol 3 kinase (PI3K). Activation of PI3K is associated with pancreatic cancer resistance to apotosis induced by chemotherapy or molecular drug targeting agents.

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most deadly human malignancies with more than 30,000 deaths annually in the United States alone. At diagnosis these cancers are found in a state where only 10% to 15% can be excised due to the presence of locally advanced disease or distant metastasis. Recently, the most common treatment strategy for advanced pancreatic cancer is gemcitabine, a 2'-deoxycytidine nucleoside analogue for intravenous administration that can induce apoptosis of human pancreatic cancer cells and inhibit tumor growth and progression. It is a treatment by. However, despite the best medical or surgical treatment, the results of treatment of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma are terrible, and as a group, the median survival of patients with this disease is 21 months or less. Thus, there is a need for clear, new and efficient treatment strategies to combat this deadly disease. As such, pancreatic cancer is a major health issue in developed countries and has a very poor prognosis (Faint et al. (2004) Datamonitor DMHC2045; Garcea et al. (2005) Pancreatology 5: 514-529; Kern et al. (2002). ) Cancer Biol Therapy 1: 607-613; Laheru and Jaffee (2005) Nature Rev Cancer 5: 59-467; Li et al. (2004) Lancet 363: 1049-1057). Despite excessive surgical and medical treatment, the mean life expectancy is about 15-18 months for patients with local disease and 3-6 months for patients with metastatic disease. Nearly 100% of patients with pancreatic cancer experience metastasis and die due to their unrestricted growth, which weakens metabolism, and less than 5% of patients who have not undergone resection survive a total of 5 years. Do. In addition, there is a problem that the initial diagnosis is difficult due to the non-specific initial symptoms. Currently, early detection of pancreatic cancer is still under development and not commercially available, and conventional cancer treatments have little effect on prognosis or disease outcome. Poor prognosis for pancreatic cancer is due to late manifestation, aggressive local invasion, early metastasis and insufficient response to chemotherapy.

The most common symptoms of pancreatic cancer include jaundice, abdominal pain and weight loss, and are not substantially special along with other emergence factors. Thus, diagnosing pancreatic cancer at an early stage of tumor growth is often difficult and requires a situation that includes considerable doubt and extensive diagnostic overhauls, often exploratory surgery. Endoscopic ultrasonography and computed tomography (CT) are the best noninvasive methods currently available for diagnosing pancreatic cancer. However, as well as differentiation of pancreatic cancer from lesioned pancreatitis, reliable detection of small tumors is difficult. Unfortunately, the majority of patients are currently diagnosed at a late stage where the tumor has already invaded the surrounding organs, extending outward and / or extensively metastasized (Gold et al., Crit. Rev. Oncology / Hematology, 39: 147-54 (2001). The disease is late detection is common, and early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is rare in clinical settings.

Currently available treatment methods for pancreatic cancer do not cure the disease or reach a substantially improved survival time. Surgical resection is the only way to provide survival. However, due to tumor burden, only 10-25% of patients are targeted for 'curative resection'. In these patients undergoing resection treatment, the 5-year survival rate is still on average at around 10%.

In order to examine the effect of the civil extract extracted in Example 1 on the growth of pancreatic cancer cells, the panc-1 cells, which are human pancreatic cancer cells, were treated with civil ethanol extract for 48 hours and subjected to Alamar Blue analysis. The Alamar Blue assay is a modified form of the MTT assay, in which a specific enzyme degrades a living cell and then measures the fluorescence intensity of the product as the compound breaks down to determine the relative number of living cells after treatment. I am an experimental method. It will be described in more detail below.

<2-1> Preparation and Treatment of Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Lines

Panc-1 cells, a pancreatic cancer cell line used in the present invention, were distributed from the Korean Cell Line Bank (KCLB) and used for experiments. Specifically, Panc-1 pancreatic cancer cells are DMEM (Dulbeco's Modified Eagle's) containing 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum, fetal bovine serum) (Welgene) and 25 mM HEPES (4- (2-hydroxyethyl) -1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) Medium) was passaged in medium.

<2-2> Panc Inhibition of Cell Growth in -1 Pancreatic Cancer Cells

It was confirmed that the civil extract extracted in Example 1 inhibits the growth of Panc-1 cells, which are pancreatic cancer cells. Specifically, 4.5 x 10 ³ Panc-1 pancreatic cancer cells per well were seeded in a 96 well plate, cultured for 24 hours, and then the civil fragrance dissolved in DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide). When the ethanol extract was treated at concentrations of 0 to 100 μg / ml (specifically, concentrations of 0, 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μg / ml, respectively) for 48 hours, the degree of inhibition of cell growth was confirmed. (Table 1). After treatment with each concentration of extract, 20 μl of Alamar Blue reagent was added to 0.2 ml of cell culture filled in each well in a 96-well plate, and the plates were incubated for 2 hours in an incubator. The plate was slowly shaken to evenly react the cells of each well, and the intensity of fluorescence was measured at 590 nm with a Fluorescence Microplate Reader (Molecular Devices Corp.) while irradiating irradiated light at a wavelength of 544 nm. Survival is shown in FIG.

As a result, as shown in Table 1 and Figure 1, the higher the treatment concentration of civil fragrance, the growth of pancreatic cancer cells was reduced, from which it can be seen that civil engineering has a pancreatic cancer treatment effect. That is, pancreatic cancer cells were killed at 1.3% at 12.5 μg / ml, 3.5% at 25 μg / ml, 64.3% at 50 μg / ml, and 84.3% at 100 μg / ml. In addition, the IC ₅₀ (half maximal inhibitory concentration) was determined to be 44.9 μg / ml. Table 1 above describes the relative cell numbers of pancreatic cancer cells after 48 hours according to the concentration of each civil fragrance based on the number of survival rates of the pancreatic cancer cells of the control group not treated with civil fragrance. As such, the civil extract of the present invention has excellent Panc-1 cell killing activity and further demonstrates pancreatic cancer treatment and prophylactic activity.

< Example  3> Civil incense  By extract Acute toxicity  exam

The civil fragrance used in the present invention was widely used as a medicinal herb, so it was judged that there would be no problem in stability.

Acute toxicity test was performed using 6-week-old SPF SD rats. Two animals per group were suspended orally administered at a dose of 5 g / kg, each of which was suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose solution of the civil extract of Example 1 of the present invention. After administration of the test substance, mortality, clinical symptoms, and changes in body weight were observed. Hematological and hematological examinations were performed. Necropsy was performed to observe abdominal and thoracic organ abnormalities.

As a result, there were no clinical symptoms or deaths in all animals treated with the test substance, and no toxicity change was observed in weight change, blood test, blood biochemistry test, autopsy findings, etc. As a result, all civil extracts did not show toxic changes up to 5 g / kg in rats and the minimum lethal dose (LD ₅₀ ) was determined to be a safe substance above 5 g / kg.

< Example  4> Cell Proliferation Test EDU Assay )

EdU assay is the same test method as BrdU assay and is an improved assay. Halogenated nucleotides such as the pyrimidine analog bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) are useful for staining DNA in living cells or tissues. In phase S, which is doubled in the nucleus of the cell cycle and doubled in volume, BrdU is used instead of thymidine in the replicating DNA, and the amount of synthesized DNA can be confirmed by staining with BrdU antibody.

In the test method, the cultured pancreatic cancer cells were treated with civil fragrance by concentration, and after 6 hours, EdU was added to the medium and the cells were cultured. After 18 hours, the medium containing EdU was removed and the cells were fixed with 3.7,% paraformaldehyde and washed twice with PBS. After permeation of cells with 0.1% Triton X-100, Alexa Fluor 488 azide was reacted with EdU. Stained with Hoechst 33342 to identify the nuclei of the cells. As shown in Fig. 2, the nucleus of the whole cell is the first one, of which the nuclei of the newly generated cell after the point of the civil fragrance treatment are the second one. The third is the sum of these.

As shown in Figure 2, when the civil fragrance was treated for each concentration, it can be seen that the number of newly generated cells compared to the untreated control. This shows that civil fragrance has the effect of inhibiting the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.

< Example  5> Quantitative change test of signal protein ( Westernblotting , immunoblotting )

Western blot testing was performed to determine the effect of civil fragrance on signaling proteins involved in the major cellular signals that control cancer cell growth and proliferation. Western blot is a test method that separates the whole protein by molecular weight, and then compares the amount of protein to be detected using the antibody of the protein to be identified.

As the concentration of civil fragrance increased, the expression and activity of genes that induce apoptosis were increased.
