초록
궤양성 대장염은 면역학적인 이상과 유전적인 요소에 의해 대장의 점막 또는 점막밑층에 염증을 유발하는 질환이다. 이전 연구에 의하면, 비만은 궤양성 대장염의 유병률을 높이고, 진행을 악화시키는 것으로 보고되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 커큐민이 비만에 의한 대장염의 진행을 억제하는지에 대해 조사하였다. 비만을 유도하기 위해 고지방 식이로 마우스를 사육하였고, 커큐민의 염증억제 효과를 확인하기 위해 고지방 식이와 함께커큐민을 섭취시켰다. 궤양성 대장염을 유도하기 위해서 DSS 를 경구투여 하고 대장염의 임상 증상을 관찰하였다. 대장염의 진행을 확인하기 위해 질병활성지수와 결장의 길이를 측정하였다. 커큐민에 의한 대장염 완화를 조직학적으로 평가하기 위해 결장, 간, 복부지방의 조직표본을 제작하고 H&E 및 Alcian blue-PAS 염색법으로 분석하였다. 커큐민은 질병활성지수의 점수를 감소시키고, 결장의 길이가 짧아지는 것을 억제하는 것으로 확인하였다. 또한, 비만으로 악화된 궤양성 대장염의 결장조직에서 염증세포 침윤과 점막손상을 억제하였다. 커큐민은 간의 지방증과 복부지방의 지방세포를 유의하게 감소시키는 것으로 확인하였다. 결론적으로 커큐민은 비만에 의한 대장염의 진행을 억제함으로써 궤양성 대장염을 치료할 수 있는 치료제로서 활용될 것으로 사료된다.
Abstract
Ulcerative colitis is a disease that causes inflammation in the mucosal or submucosal layer of the colon. Previous studies have reported that obesity increases the prevalence of ulcerative colitis and aggravates the progression. This study was therefore undertaken to investigate whether curcumin inhibits the progression of ulcerative colitis caused by obesity. Mice were bred on a high-fat diet to induce obesity, and curcumin was administered with the high-fat diet to confirm the anti-inflammatory effect. To induce ulcerative colitis, dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) was administered orally, and clinical symptoms of colitis were subsequently observed. For histological evaluation of curcumin, the colon, liver and abdominal fat tissue samples were prepared and analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining. Our results confirm that consumption of curcumin resulted in decreasing the score of the disease activity index, and inhibited shortening of the colon length. In addition, inflammatory cell infiltration and mucosal damage were inhibited in the colon tissue of ulcerative colitis exacerbated by obesity. We further confirmed that exposure to curcumin significantly reduced the steatosis area of the liver and adipocytes of abdominal fat. In conclusion, we believe that curcumin can be applied as a therapeutic agent to treat ulcerative colitis, by inhibiting the progression of colitis caused by obesity.
