Description

TITLE OF THE INVENTION
TNFα-SECRETION INHIBITOR CONTAINING SYRINGIN OR ITS AGLYCONE
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present "invention relates to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α-secretion inhibitor and, more particularly, to a TNFα- secretion inhibitor containing syringin or syringin aglycon as an active ingredient.
BACKGROUND ART
Recently, over-production of TNFα has been observed in allergy or various auto-immune diseases, and attempts to develop the materials specifically inhibiting the secretion of TNFα as therapeutic agents for the above diseases have been intensively made.
Although immune-suppresive agents such as cyclosporin A and dexamethason are known to inhibit TNFα secretion, these agents are being used very limitedly for the treatment of the above diseases because they induce overall immune suppression and involve various side effects.
Therefore, the present inventor gave attention to syringin and its aglycone having various pharmacological effects with little toxicity among natural products isolated from plants. Various pharmaceutical actions of syringin have been reported. Syringin blocks the inhibitory action of diabetic beta-lipoprotein [Lek. Sredtava Dal nego Vostoka 11, 56-59, 1972]. When syringin is administered to rat in a dose of 0.5mg/kg, a good anti-stress effect is observed [Lloydia, 32, 46-50(1969)]. According to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Sho 59-33221, syringin is effective for the treatment of psychogenic behavior disorder. According to another Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 3-145426, syringin has a hypnosis- inducing action.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
After conducting a long-term intensive research, the present inventor found that syringin and its aglycone have TNFα-secretion inhibiting effect, anti-hypersensitivity effect as well as anti-inflammatory effect on auto-immune disease like uveitis. Thus this invention has come to be completed.
Syringin is extracted by lower alcohols and then, the extract is separated and purified by column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Syringin is a colorless needle-shaped crystal and soluble in distilled water and methanol. Its aqueous solution has an ultraviolet absorption at 220 and 265nm, and melting point 192°C. In in vitro experiment, syringin or its aglycone inhibits effectively the secretion of TNFα from macrophage. And edema of the test animals induced by hypersensi ivity was dose- dependently reduced by syringin or its aglycone. Also, it showed the activity toward auto-immune diseases by suppressing inflammation of uveitis.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
Figure 1 shows severe infiltration of inflammatory cells into retina of the eye of a control rat [Experiment 3].
Figure 2 shows little infiltration of inflammatory cells into retina of the eye of a rat treated with syringin [Experiment 3] . BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The present invention is described in more detail based upon the following Examples, Experiments and Preparations.
Example 1
The bark of Eucommia ulmoides was boiled in water for two hours, filtered through gauze and extracted with butanol. The butanol fraction was evaporated under the reduced pressure and dissolved in a small amount of water and then, the aqueous solution was applied to a HPLC C18 column (2.2 x 50cm) and eluted with 30% methanol at a flow rate of 14 ml/min. Fractions containing syringin were collected and evaporated under the reduced pressure which in turn was dissolved in a small amount of water. The aqueous solution was subjected to HPLC again. Finally, syringin was purified by recrystalization in hot water. The structure of recrystallized substance was determined with NMR and Mass spectrophotography to be syringin. The melting point of this material was 192°C.
Experiment 1
RAW 264.7 murine raacrophage cell line was grown to confluence in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% bovine calf serum(BCS) and 50μg/ml gentamycin in 24-well plate. After the culture supernatant was removed by suction, each well received one of four kinds of medium : 0.2 ml of the medium containing 1 μg/ml lipopolysaccharide(LPS) , 1 μg/ml LPS + 5 μg/ml syringin, lμg/ml LPS +50 μg/ml syringin or none additive. The plate was incubated for 4 hours in a CO-, incubator at 37°C. Thereafter the culture supernatant was harvested by centrifugation.
For the bioassay of TNFα, L-929 mouse fibroblast cell line was cultured in DMEM supplemented with 50 μg/ml gentamycin and 10% BCS. The cells were trypsinized and suspended in the 6/04921 PCI7KR94/00110
medium.
The cells at a density of 3xlθ θ-lml/well in 96-well plate were incubated at 37°C for 24 hours.
After the culture supernatant was removed, each well received 90 μl of the medium containing actinomycin D (1 μg/ml) and 10 μl of serially diluted RAW 264.7 culture supernatant.
After 16 hours, viable cells were stained by the addition of 10 μl of a chromogen, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl) -2,5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide ( 5 mg/ml of PBS) . After 3 hours, the culture supernatant was removed from each well and 100 μl of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) was added.
The absorbances at 570/690 nm were measured by using an automated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate reader. The results are shown in the following Table I.
Table I : Inhibitory effect of syringin on secretion of TNFα from macrophage
Treatment TNFα unit
None 377 ± 23
LPS 1600 ± 82
LPS + Syringin (5μg/ml) 801 ± 63 LPS + Syringin (50μg/ml) 406 ± 63
RAW 264.7 murine macrophages were stimulated by LPS with or without syringin. As shown in Table I, the cells secreted 377 units of TNFα without stimulation, but LPS alone stimulated the cells to secrete 1600 units. The combination of LPS and 5 μg/ml syringin reduced the secretion to 801 units and the combinataion of LPS and 50 μg/ml syringin, to 406 units.
Thus syringin inhibited effectively the secretion of TNFα from macrophages. Experiment 2
Male mice(Balb/c) were used for the test of contact hypersensitivity. The abdomens were shaved using a' small animal clipper. Two hundred microliters of 1% FITC [ 1 g of fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate/100ml of acetone-dibutyl phthalate(l:1) ] was epicutaneously applied onto the shaved abdomens.
After 5 days, the four groups of animals each (40 mice) received orally twice daily one of the following treatments ; 70 μg of syringin/kg, 700 μg of syringin/kg, 7000 μg of syringin/kg or water for three days.
After 24 hours from the administration, the baseline ear thickness of the animal's right ear was measured using a dial thickness gauge. Immediately after ear measurement, each side of the right ear was treated with 10 μl of 1% FITC (20 μl total) .
After 24 hours and 48 hours, ear thickness was measured in the sensitized animals. The relative swelling of mouse ear was expressed by (ear thickness after the induction of hypersensitivity - baseline ear thickness / baseline ear thickness) x 100.
The results are shown in the following Table II.

* : The figure represents a relative swelling(%) of mouse ear expressed by(ear thickness after the induction of hypersensitivity-baseline ear thickness / baseline ear thickness) x 100
As shown in Table II, the control group showed the relative swelling of 40.5% at 24 hours after the sensitization but the administration of syringin reduced dose-dependently the swelling to 31.6% (70 μg/kg) , to 23.1% (700 μg/kg) , and to 3.2% (7000 μg/kg) . The data from the control group, 700 μg/ml syringin-treated group and 7000 μg/ml syringin-treated group were treated with Tukey's studentized range test. The differences between the control group and syringin-treated groups were statistically significant. Thus syringin inhibited effectively the contact hypersensitivity. Contact hypersensitivity is a simple in vivo assay of cell-mediated immune function. The murine model presented in this experiment is an excellent model for human allergic contact dermatitis.
Experiment 3
Bovine S-antigen was prepared using bovine retinas according to the method of Dorey et al. [ Dorey C. , Cozette J. and Faure J.P., Ophthalmic Res. 14:249, 1982 ]. The antigen (lmg/ml) was emulsified(1:1) in complete Freund's adjuvant. A total volume of O.lml/rat was injected into foot pads of Lewis rats. After 5 days from the immunization, syringin(4mg/kg, BID) was orally administered to one group (6 rats) "and water, to a control group (6 rats) . The administration was continued until the animal experiment was completed.
After two weeks from the S-antigen immunization; eyes of rats were examined with a slit lamp microscope. Boosting with the same antigen was conducted on the rats at 18 days after the immunization. Eyes were examined again after two weeks from the boosting and then the animals were sacrificed.
The eyes removed were histochemically stained and examined. The results are shown in the following Table III.
