Description

DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 포함하는 근위축 예방, 치료 또는 개선용 조성물{Composition for Prevention, Treatment or Improvement of Muscular Atrophy comprising DL-Sulforaphane N-acetyl-L-cysteine}Composition for Prevention, Treatment or Improvement of Muscular Atrophy comprising DL-Sulforaphane N-acetyl-L-cysteine

본 발명은 DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 포함하는 근위축 예방, 치료 또는 개선용 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a composition for preventing, treating or improving muscular dystrophy comprising DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine.

근위축(muscle atrophy)은 호르몬 불균형, 심한 부상, 패혈증, 암 및 노화로 인한 여러 가지 이화 상태(catabolic condition)에서 발생하는 근육세포와 근조직의 크기 및 질량적 손실을 의미한다. 근위축은 근육의 손실을 유발하여 근육 약화 및 피로감을 유발하고 합병증을 악화시킨다. 근위축은 크레아틴 키나아제(Creatine kinase: CK), 근전도검사, 근육생검, 분자생물학적 유전자검사, 세포유전학적 검사 등을 통해 진단이 이루어진다. 현재 근위축을 치료하기 위한 방법으로써, 물리치료가 일반적으로 수행되며, 합병증, 기형 및 기능 장애 예방을 위한 작업치료, 호흡치료 및 지지요법(supportive therapy)등이 병행되고 있으나, 이러한 치료는 대증요법으로써의 한계를 갖는다는 점에서, 근위축에 대한 치료제 개발이 절실한 상황이다.Muscle atrophy refers to the loss of muscle cell and muscle tissue size and mass in various catabolic conditions due to hormonal imbalance, severe injury, sepsis, cancer and aging. Muscular atrophy causes muscle loss, causing muscle weakness and fatigue, and exacerbating complications. Muscle atrophy is diagnosed through creatine kinase (CK), electromyography, muscle biopsy, molecular biological genetic testing, and cytogenetic testing. Currently, as a method for treating muscular dystrophy, physical therapy is generally performed, and occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, and supportive therapy for the prevention of complications, malformations, and functional disorders are combined, but such therapy is symptomatic therapy. In view of its limitations, the development of therapeutic agents for muscular dystrophy is urgent.

근위축의 병인기전은 아직까지 명확히 규명되지 않았으며, 현재까지 근위축 발병의 주 원인으로 보고된 것으로써, 산화물질 증가에 의한 근세포 손상, 스트레스 단백질 발현 감소로 인한 근단백질 생성 및 재생 감소, 프로테아좀-유비퀴틴 활성화에 따른 근단백질 분해 촉진 등이 알려져 있다. 또한, 항염증제로 잘 알려진 합성 글루코코르티코이드인 덱사메타손(DEX)의 투여에 의하여 근육량과 관련된 단백질의 분해가 촉진된다는 사실이 많은 연구에서 보고되었다.The pathogenesis of muscular atrophy has not been clarified so far, and has been reported to be the main cause of the development of muscular atrophy. As a result, muscle cell damage caused by increased oxides, muscle protein production and regeneration due to decreased stress protein expression, pro It is known to promote the degradation of myofoprotein by activating theosomal-ubiquitin. In addition, many studies have reported that the decomposition of proteins related to muscle mass is promoted by administration of dexamethasone (DEX), a synthetic glucocorticoid, well known as an anti-inflammatory agent.

덱사메타손은 암과 같은 여러 질병을 치료하는데 사용되지만, 유비퀴틴-프로 테아좀 시스템을 통해 골격근에서 단백질 합성 속도를 감소시키고, 단백질 분해 속도를 증가시켜 근위축을 유발한다. 2개의 근육 유비퀴틴 리가아제(ubiquitin ligase)는 Atrogin-1 및 MuRF1과 관련이 있는데, 덱사메타손은 Atrogin-1을 통해 MyoD(myogenic differentiation antigen)를 저하시키고, 이와 같은 기전을 통하여 근육량이 감소하게 된다.Dexamethasone is used to treat various diseases such as cancer, but the ubiquitin-proteasome system reduces the rate of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle and increases the rate of proteolysis, causing muscle atrophy. Two muscle ubiquitin ligase are related to Atrogin-1 and MuRF1, and dexamethasone lowers myoD (myogenic differentiation antigen) through Atrogin-1, and the muscle mass decreases through this mechanism.

따라서, 근위축, 특히 덱사메타손에 의해 유도되는 근위축을 치료하기 위한 치료제의 개발이 진행되고 있으나, 현재까지 근위축에 대한 효과적인 치료제는 개발되지 않은 상황이며, 인구의 노령화, 우주개발 및 삶의 질을 추구하는 사회적 인식의 변화로 인하여, 근위축에 대한 치료제의 요구가 점차 증가할 것으로 예상된다.Therefore, although the development of a therapeutic agent for the treatment of muscular dystrophy, especially dexamethasone induced muscular dystrophy, is currently in progress, an effective treatment for muscular dystrophy has not been developed, and the aging of the population, space development and quality of life It is expected that the demand for therapeutic agents for muscular dystrophy will gradually increase due to changes in social perception pursuing.

한편, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인(DL-Sulforaphane N-acetyl-L-cysteine)은 항암 및 항염증 활성을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 근위축 개선 활성에 대해서는 아직까지 보고된 바 없다.On the other hand, DL-Sulforaphane N-acetyl-L-cysteine (DL-Sulforaphane N-acetyl-L-cysteine) is known to exhibit anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activity, but has not been reported about the muscle atrophy improvement activity.

이에 본 발명자는 근위축을 효과적으로 개선할 수 있는 치료제를 발굴하기 위한 연구를 수행하여 본 발명을 완성하였다.Accordingly, the present inventor completed the present invention by conducting research to find a therapeutic agent that can effectively improve muscular dystrophy.

실시예 4. DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인의 근위축 개선 효과 확인Example 4. Confirmation of the effect of improving the atrophy of DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine

MyoD 및 Myogenin은 근육 분화(muscle differentiation)의 마커이고, Atrogin-1 및 MuRF1은 근위축(muscle atrophy)의 마커이다. 따라서, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인 처리 후, 근육 분화 및 근위축 여부를 확인하기 위하여, 이들 마커에 대한 mRNA 수준을 실시예 1-3 및 1-4를 수행하여 분석하였다.MyoD and Myogenin are markers of muscle differentiation, and Atrogin-1 and MuRF1 are markers of muscle atrophy. Therefore, after DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine treatment, mRNA levels for these markers were analyzed by performing Examples 1-3 and 1-4 to confirm muscle differentiation and muscular atrophy.

그 결과, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 처리하지 않은 경우의 MyoD, Myogenin, Atrogin-1 및 MuRF1의 mRNA 수준과 비교하였을 때, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 처리한 후에 측정한 MyoD, Myogenin, Atrogin-1 및 MuRF1의 mRNA 수준에서 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았다(도 3). 즉, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인은 정상 근관세포의 근육 분화 및 근위축에 영향을 주지 않음을 확인하였다.As a result, after treatment with DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine compared to mRNA levels of MyoD, Myogenin, Atrogin-1 and MuRF1 when DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine was not treated There was no significant difference in the measured mRNA levels of MyoD, Myogenin, Atrogin-1 and MuRF1 (FIG. 3).

That is, it was confirmed that the muscular atrophy can be improved by using DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine.

한편, 감소된 Akt 신호 활성은 대부분의 근위축 모델에서 관찰된다. 덱사메타손에 의해 유도된 근위축 모델에서, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인이 Akt의 발현에 영향을 주는지를 확인하기 위하여, 실시예 1-4를 수행하여 p-Akt(S473)의 수준을 분석하였다.On the other hand, reduced Akt signal activity is observed in most atrophy models. In a muscle atrophy model induced by dexamethasone, to confirm whether DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine affects the expression of Akt, Example 1-4 was performed to increase the level of p-Akt (S473). Analysis.

그 결과, 덱사메타손을 처리할 경우, p-Akt(S473)의 수준이 유의하게 감소하였으나, 덱사메타손과 DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 동시에 처리한 경우, p-Akt(S473)의 정상대조군과 유사한 수준으로 회복됨을 확인하였다(도 4). As a result, when dexamethasone was treated, the level of p-Akt (S473) was significantly decreased, but when dexamethasone and DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine were treated simultaneously, the normal control of p-Akt (S473) It was confirmed that the recovery to a level similar to (Fig. 4).

DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인 처리 후, 근위축의 개선 효과를 확인하기 위하여, 실시예 1-5를 수행하여 근관세포에 대한 현미경 사진을 분석하였다.After treatment with DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine, to confirm the improvement effect of muscular dystrophy, Example 1-5 was performed to analyze micrographs of the root canal cells.

그 결과, 덱사메타손을 처리한 경우, 근관세포의 직경이 감소하여 근위축이 발생한 것을 확인한 반면, 덱사메타손과 DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인을 동시에 처리한 경우, 근관세포의 지름이 대조군 및 DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인 단독 처리군과 유사한 수준으로 회복되었음을 확인하였다(도 5).As a result, when treated with dexamethasone, it was confirmed that muscular atrophy occurred due to a decrease in the diameter of the root canal cells. On the other hand, when dexamethasone and DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine were treated simultaneously, the diameter of the root canal cells was compared to the control group and DL. -It was confirmed that the sulfolapan N-acetyl-L-cysteine treatment group recovered to a similar level (FIG. 5).

상기 결과를 통하여, DL-설포라판 N-아세틸-L-시스테인의 사용에 따른 실질적인 근위축 개선 효과를 확인하였다.Through the above results, it was confirmed that a substantial effect of improving muscular atrophy according to the use of DL-sulforapane N-acetyl-L-cysteine.
