(3-1) 紫外線の照射による皮膚のバリア機能悪化状態の誘導
ヘアレスマウス(Hos:HR-1、雌、4週齢 星野試験動物飼育所)を1週間で馴化させた後に、20mJ/cm2の条件で、紫外線(UV-B(GL20SE、三共電気株式会社))を照射した。
皮膚のバリア機能悪化の試験系を用いて、スフィンゴミエリンまたはスフィンゴミエリンとヨーグルトの経口投与による皮膚の状態への影響を評価した。各群の試験系を8匹ずつとした。動物実験の群構成(評価群の構成)とスフィンゴミエリンとヨーグルトの含量の関係を、下記に示した。
SM群: スフィンゴミエリンを10mg/kg/dayで経口投与する群
SM+YG群: スフィンゴミエリンとヨーグルトをそれぞれ10mg/kg/day、11.3g/kg/dayで経口投与する群
(ただし、前記SM群とSM+YG群では共に、スフィンゴミエリンやヨーグルトに加えて、さらにコラーゲンを1000mg/kg/dayの割合で経口投与している)。
各試験群について、角層水分量およびTEWLを測定し、これらより、皮膚のバリア機能を評価した。
角層水分量は、コルネオメーター(Corneometer,Courage and Khazaka Electronic GmbH社)を用いて、5回/匹で測定した。このうち、最大値と最小値を除いた3回の測定値の平均を採用し、角層水分量とした。
経皮水分蒸散量(TEWL)は、テヴァメーター(Tewemeter MPA580,Courage and Khazaka Electronic GmbH社)に、29℃に保温したプローブを20秒間で用いて測定した。これら得られた測定結果について、3回の平均を採用、経皮水分蒸散量とした。
(角層水分量)
結果は、図5に示した通りであった。
図5において、Control群の角層水分量に比べて、SM群およびSM+YG群の角層水分量は高値であった。さらに、SM+YG群はSM群に比べ、高値であった。このことから、SM+YG群は、SM群に比べて皮膚のバリア機能の悪化がより抑制(改善)されたと考えられた。
結果は、図6に示した通りであった。
図6において、Control群のTEWLに比べて、SM群のTEWLは低値であった。さらに、SM+YG群はSM群に比べ、低値であった。これらから、SM+YG群は、SM群に比べて皮膚のバリア機能の悪化がより抑制(改善)されたと考えられた。
