제목 Study on Cell Cytotoxicity and Cytokine Modulation of Natural Herbal Extracts
초록 Houttuynia cordata (HC) and Eucommia ulmoides (EU) have been used as traditional medicine in Korea and are known to have antioxidant, anti-cancer and anti-allergic activities. In this study, to evaluate the cell cytotoxicity of the HC and EU extracts mixtures (HEEM) on human mast cells (HMC-1), the HC and EU were extracted with distilled water and then the HEEM was freeze-dried and sterilized using γ-rays irradiation. The cytotoxicity was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and the effects of HEWE on TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 allergic response in HMC-1 were investigated. These results showed that the HEWE did not significantly affect cell viability and had no toxicity and reduced TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 response on HMC-1 cells. These findings indicate that the HEEM can be used as potential therapeutic agents.
