COMPOSITION FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF BONE DISEASES COMPRISING EXTRACT OF ZANTHOXYLUM PIPERRITUM}

The present invention relates to a composition for the prevention and treatment of bone diseases, containing the extract of the bark tree as an active ingredient.

Osteoporosis is a disease in which there is no change in the chemical composition of the bone and a decrease in bone mass in the unit volume, which can easily cause fracture even in a slight impact. Currently, the majority of osteoporosis treatment drugs to alleviate the symptoms or prevent the progression of the goal is mainly antiresorptive drug (antiresorptive drug) to delay the action of bone loss. Currently, osteoporosis treatment drugs are bisphosphonates, which inhibit bone loss by weakening the functions of osteoclasts (bone resorption-related cells). Merck's Fosamax, Procter Gamble, And "Actonel". However, these treatments do not promote the formation of bones, but as a decomposition inhibitor, it is necessary to replace the bone because it can induce additional fractures in continuous use.

Recently, as the functions of various proteins and genes related to bone formation have been revealed, various attempts at the development of 'bone formation promoters' targeting these proteins and genes have been made in multinational pharmaceutical companies or in Korea. / β-catenin signaling system has been shown to regulate bone growth and bone density since it has been reported that co-receptor co-receptor LRP5 is responsible for osteoporosis pseudoglioma syndrome (OPPG), a representative genetic disease caused by bone mineral density. Relevant research has been actively studied, and it is known that activation of the Wnt / β-catenin signaling system induces an increase in bone volume, and has been highlighted as an effective and safe drug treatment target in the treatment of osteoporosis (Boyden et al. N Engl. J. Med. 2002; Little et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2002; Einhorn et al., Science Translational Medicine, 2010; Yavropoulous e t al., Exepert Review of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2010; Wagner et al. Current Molecular Pharmacology, 2011). At present, no safe osteoporosis medication to treat bone formation has been developed, except for expensive and inapplicable Paratyroidhormone (PTH). Accordingly, the present inventors have found that the burden of side effects is low because of long-term clinical trials, and that Wnt / β-catenin signaling system can be activated by using the bark tree, a natural product, which is relatively inexpensive when developed as a new drug. Reached.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail by the following examples. However, the following examples are illustrative of the present invention, and the contents of the present invention are not limited by the following examples.

Example

Example  One. Preparation of natural extracts and Screening

HEK-TOP is a stable cell line with Topflash capable of measuring β-catenin reporters in HEK293. The cells were treated with 300 kinds of natural products at a concentration of 1 ug / ml, and after 24 hours, transcription by β-catenin was measured through a reporter (FIG. 1). Screening was selected as a substance that increases the transcription by β-catenin, and the transcription of β-catenin at the HEK-TOP was measured once again to confirm that the reporter value was increased (Fig. 2). The bark tree extract was purchased from Korea Plant Extract Bank using 99.9% methyl alcohol as an extraction solvent.

Example  2. Through animal experiment Bark tree of  Check efficacy

The primary osteoblasts (POB) were isolated from the calfria of four-day-old rats from Orient Bio, and after 5 ug / ml of bark extracts were treated for 24 hours, the protein of β-catenin was increased. 3).

Induction of differentiation in 4 days old rat Calvaria was treated with 5ug / ml of bark extract for a week. Immunohistochemistry confirmed that β-catenin was increased in the group treated with the bark extract (FIG. 4). In addition, as a result of measuring the thickness it was confirmed that the thickness of the head cover bone in the group treated with the bark wood compared to the control group (Figs. 5 to 6).

Example 3 In Vivo Administration of Extracts for the Treatment of Bone Disease

The acute toxicity test was carried out as described below using specific pathogen-free (SPF) SD rats of 6 weeks old supplied from the experimental supply center. After two oral administrations of the extract of Example 1 at a dose of 1 g / kg to two animals in each group, the mortality, clinical symptoms, and weight changes of the animals were observed, and hematological and blood biochemical tests were performed. The necropsy was performed to visually check the tonic and thoracic organ abnormalities. As a result of the experiment, there were no clinical symptoms or dead animals in all animals treated with the test substance, and no toxic change was observed in weight change, blood test, blood biochemical test, and autopsy findings. As a result, it was confirmed that the extract of the present invention did not exhibit any toxicity at 1 g / kg or more in rats, and that the oral LDL was at least 1 g / kg.
