This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of processed (Beopje) curly dock (Rumex crispus L.) in LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated murine RAW 264.7 cells. The experimental group was classified into five groups : LPS no treatment, CD (curly dock), CD-B (CD processed through Beopje), LPS, LPS+CD-B (LPS+CD processed through Beopje) and LPS+CD (LPS+CD). Treatment of the Raw 264.7 cell lines using LPS led to a significant increase in NO production, pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β), and inflammation related genes (COX-2 and iNOS). Investigation of the inhibitory effects of CD and processed CD on NO production and expression of iNOS and COX-2 was done in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. There was significant inhibition of NO production by LPS+CD and LPS+CD-B in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.05). Particularly, LPS+CD-B exhibited reduced mRNA expression of iNOS and COX-2 and NO production as compared to LPS+CD in Raw 264.7 cell lines (p<0.05). These results may explain some known biological activities of curly dock including the anti-inflammatory effects. CD-B in particular exhibited the highest anti-inflammatory effects of inhibiting production of NO, through the regulation of inflammatory related genes and pro-inflammatory cytokines. These results of Beopje processing might help decrease the anti-biological effects and increase several active substances of curly dock

Background : In ancient, roots of Rumex crispus, called wooi-daehwang, were used for various symptoms and diseases like cough, phlegm, bronchitis and hepatitis, caused inflammatory. As a part of ongoing research to elucidate and characterize anti-inflammatory nutraceuticals, solvent-partitioned fractions from R. crispus root were tested for their ability to suppress inflammation. In this study, NO synthesis inhibitory activity of solvent-partitioned fractions from R. crispus root on LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 mouse macrophages was evaluated. Methods and Results : The EtOH extracts were suspended in water. The aqueous layer was further partitioned in diethylether, ethylacetate and n-butanol, sequentially. RAW264.7 cells were seeded onto 96-well plates, and cells were allowed to adhere for 6 h and then were pretreated with the R. crispus root extracts for 24 h. Cellular nitric oxide (NO) production was stimulated by adding lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Absorbance was measured at 520 ㎚ by microplate reader. NO synthesis inhibitory activity potential of these fractions was evaluated by assessing NO production by LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells in the presence and absence of the solvent-partitioned R. crispus root fractions. NO synthesis inhibitory activity of diethylether fraction diluted in 50 ㎍/㎖, 25 ㎍/㎖, 12.5 ㎍/㎖, 6.25 ㎍/㎖, 3.125 ㎍/㎖ was 79.2%, 70.9%, 59.5%, 16.1%, and 11.8%, respectively. And NO synthesis inhibitory activity range of another fractions, EtOAc, n-BuOH and aqueous layer, were 0 - 30.2%, 0 - 20.1% and 3.8 - 22.4%, respectively. Conclusion : From the above results, it showed that diethylether fraction have strong NO synthesis inhibitory activity, it was suggested that R. crispus root have NO synthesis inhibitory effects. R. crispus root possesses anthraquinones, such as chrysophanol, parietin, and anthrones etc. According to previous studies, R. crispus semen extract has analgesic and hepatoprotective effect as anti-inflammatory, and extract of R. napalensis has cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, COX-1 inhibitory and free radical scavenging effect. Our present study has shown that R. crispus root extracts anti-inflammatory effects probably by suppressing iNOS expressions, and resulting in the inhibition of NO synthesis.

마디풀과(Polygonaceae)에 속하는 소리쟁이(Rumex crispus L.) 추출물이 환경오염원인 염화카드뮴(CdCl2)에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 배양 NIH3T3 섬유모세포(NIH3T3 fibroblast)를 재료로, 이의 항산화(antioxidation) 및 멜라닌화(melanogenesis)에 대한 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서 CdCl2는 배양 NIH3T3 섬유모세포에 처리한 농도에 비례하여 세포생존율을 유의하게 감소시켰으며(p<0.001), 이 과정에서 XTT50값은 45.7μM로 측정되었다. 또한, 이 값은 Borenfreund and Puerner에 의한 독성판정기준에 따라 고독성인 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 항산화제인 vitamin E는 CdCl2에 의하여 감소된 세포생존율을 유의하게 증가시킴으로서 CdCl2의 세포독성을 방어하였다. CdCl2의 세포독성에 대한 소리쟁이 추출물의 영향에 있어서는, 소리쟁이 추출물은 CdCl2만의 처리에 비하여 세포생존율을 유의하게 증가시켰으며(p<0.001), 또한 DPPH-라디칼 소거능(DPPH-radical scavenging activity)에 의한 항산화능을 나타냈다. 멜라닌화에 있어서, 소리쟁이 추출물은 CdCl2에 의하여 증가된 티로시나제(tyrosinase) 활성과 총멜라닌양을 모두 유의하게 감소시켰다(p<0.001). 이상의 결과로부터 CdCl2의 세포독성에 산화적 손상이 관여하고 있으며, 소리쟁이 추출물은 항산화능에 의하여 CdCl2의 세포독성을 효과적으로 방어하였다. 또한 소리쟁이 추출물은 티로시나제 활성과 총멜라닌양을 유의하게 감소시킴으로서 멜라닌화를 방어하는데 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 소리쟁이와 같은 천연물을 대상으로 CdCl2 처럼 산화적 손상과 관련된 중금속계 환경오염원의 독성으로부터 보호할 수 있는 물질에 대한 탐색 및 개발은 이의 활용적 가치가 크다고 생각된다.

The antioxidant and photoprotective effects of various extracts from the roots of Rumex crispus L. were evaluated. The concentrations (IC50) of various extracts required to exert a 50% reducing effect on a DPPH radical were found to be 0.005~0.093 mg/mL. The ethyl acetate extract showed a more remarkable effect than the positive control ascorbic acid. The concentrations (QC50) of the butanol and ethyl acetate extracts required to exert a 50% reducing effect on the singlet oxygen 1O2 were found to be 0.464 and 0.365 mg/mL, respectively. Both extracts were also found to protect the in vitro biological system from the detrimental effect of a singlet oxygen 1O2 on type II photosensitization in E. coli and genomic DNA. Among all the tested extracts, the ethyl acetate and butanol extracts contained higher amounts of total phenolic contents. The results suggest that our study may contribute to the development of new bioactive products with potential applications to the reduction of photo-produced oxidative stress involving reactive oxygen species in living organisms

This study was conducted to investigate the extraction characteristics including total polyphenol compound content (TPC) and the antioxidative effect of Rumex crispus root extract on commercial corn oil. Extraction yield was increased with extraction temperature but decreased with extraction ratio. No significant differences in aromatics content were found among the extracts prepared with various extraction conditions; extraction ratio, extraction temperature, extraction pH and composition of extractant. Total flavonoid content of the extract was increased with extraction temperature and extraction pH, and highest value of it was found when extractant composition of ethanol in water was 75%. Total polyphenol compound content (TPC) of the extract with 10 fold extraction ratio showed the highest value, but no significant difference in TPC was found with extraction temperature. Reducing power and DPPH (α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging ability (RSA) of the extract in spectrophotometric absorbance were decreased with extraction ratio but increased with extraction temperature and showed 63.1%~98.4% and 67.6%~86.7% of those of ascorbic acid in reducing power and DPPH RSA, respectively. The antioxidative effects of the extract on corn oil were 84.8~93.0% of that of commercial butylated hydroxytoluene, the antioxidant index value was highest when the ethanol composition to water in extractant was equal ratio.

In this study, the extraction characteristics of soluble solid from Rumex crispus(Curled dock) was studied from the investigation of the effects of experimental conditions on extraction rate; extraction ratio, composition of extractants, extraction time and pH of extractant, etc. The proximate composition of Rumex crispus was 2.58% crude lipid, 5.59% crude protein, 7.39% crude ash, 6.13% moisture and 78.31% carbohydrate, respectively. Turbidity of extract by distilled water was higher and increased with extraction time and extraction temperature, where as the turbidity didn't increase by ethanol and methanol in 20 folds of extraction ratio. Turbidity was inversely proportional to the extraction ratio for the three extractants at 25℃ and 1 hour extraction. But turbidity of extract was highest by composition of 50% methanol-water extractant than any other compositions of extractants. Eighteen and fifteen free aminoacids were detected in extracts with distilled water, methanol and ethanol extractant, respectively, and it's contents were order of glutamic acid>proline>aminobutyric acid>alanine. The extraction rate of soluble solid from Rumex crispus was order of distilled water>methanol>ethanol within experimental extraction ratio. In extraction with distilled water, the contents of soluble solid was inversely proportional to the pH of extractant.
