Experimental Example 1

Evaluation of Activity to Inhibit Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species and Spore Germination Through NOX Enzyme Inhibition

[0615] When NADPH oxidase (NOX), which is involved in the generation of reactive oxygen species in red mold, is inhibited, normal mycelial growth is inhibited, abnormal form of monocyclic conidia is formed, and germination is inhibited. The abnormal phenotype caused by the reduction of reactive oxygen species in red mold can be easily observed under an optical microscope. Through this, the ability to inhibit generation of reactive oxygen species through NOX inhibition was evaluated.

[0616] Specifically, for the evaluation of compound activity, 0.1 mM of the compound was added to a minimum medium (MM20) spore suspension diluted to ⅕. Spores (105/ml) of wild-type red mold strain GZ3639 were inoculated into the medium and cultured at 25° C. for 24 h, followed by microscopic observation. Compounds having a germination inhibition rate and microcycle conidiation to be 50% or more of those in normal germination were selected, and their activities were evaluated at concentrations of 50 .Math.M, 25 .Math.M, and 10 .Math.M. At this time, the activity of substances having a germination inhibition rate of 95% at 10 .Math.M was further evaluated at concentrations of 5 .Math.M, 1 .Math.M, 0.5 .Math.M, and 0.1 .Math.M. Based on the result of this evaluation, the compound concentration (inhibitory concentration 50%, IC.sub.50) at which the spore germination inhibition rate was 50% was determined.

[0617] The IC.sub.50 evaluation results of the compounds of the present disclosure are shown in Table 2 below. However, Examples in Table 2 below show some compounds which are selected and tested among the compounds of the present disclosure, and the present invention is not limited to the compounds listed in Table 2 below, and compounds not listed in Table 2 also exhibit the activity to inhibit generation of reactive oxygen species and spore germination through NOX enzyme inhibition.

Experimental Example 2

Evaluation of Effect of Inhibiting Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species

[0619] It is known that reactive oxygen species are generated by inhibition of mitochondria, activation of NOX enzyme, and the like when MPP+ or rotenone is administered to a cell line. Since the reactive oxygen species generated at this time react with the CM-H2DCFDA reagent to be fluorescent, the reactive oxygen species can be indirectly quantified.

[0620] Specifically, the SH-SY5Y cell line was treated with Compound 1aaa (Compound 1, 10 .Math.M), apocynin (5 .Math.M), or allopurinol (50 .Math.M), and then with MPP+ (2 mM) or rotenone (2 .Math.M) for 24 hours. The effect of each compound to inhibit the generation of reactive oxygen species is illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3 as a relative percentage to that of the control group.

[0621] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, it has been confirmed that Compound 1aaa of the present invention effectively inhibits the increased generation of reactive oxygen species after exposure of the SH-SY5Y cell line to MPP+ or rotenone.

Experimental Example 3

Experiment to Evaluate Cell Viability

[0622] When a cell line is treated with a neurotoxic substance MPP+ or rotenone, the neurotoxic substance exhibits cytotoxicity, and the viable cells at this time can be measured through MTT assay.

[0623] Specifically, the SH-SY5Y cell line was treated with 0.5 .Math.M of Compound 1aaa (Compound 1), 1aca (Compound 24), lace (Compound 27), 1ahe (Compound 44) or 1aje (Compound 62) and then with MPP+ (2 mM) or rotenone (2 .Math.M) for 24 hours. Cell viability in the case of being treated with each compound is illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5.

[0624] As illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, it has been confirmed that Compounds 1aaa, 1aca, lace, 1ahe, and 1aje of the present invention significantly inhibit cell death, which is reduced by MPP+ or rotenone, and improve cell viability.

Experimental Example 4

Evaluation of Alpha-synuclein Aggregation Inhibitory Effect

[0625] When rotenone is administered to nerve cells, phosphorylation, namely aggregation of alpha-synuclein occurs. Phosphorylation, aggregation of alpha-synuclein can be observed and quantified through Western blotting.

[0626] Specifically, the SH-SY5Y cell line was treated with Compound 1aaa (Compound 1, 10 .Math.M) and then with rotenone. Thereafter, Western blotting was performed to measure the expression levels of alpha-synuclein and phosphorylated alpha-synuclein, and the results are illustrated in FIG. 6.

[0627] As illustrated in FIG. 6, it has been confirmed that phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein by rotenone is significantly reduced by the treatment with Compound 1aaa of the present invention. Consequently, it can be seen that Compound 1aaa of the present invention has an effect of inhibiting alpha-synuclein aggregation by inhibiting phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein.

Experimental Example 5

Evaluation of Nrf-2 Induction Effect

[0628] When oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species increases in cells, the synthesis of antioxidants increases in response to this. One of the transcription factors mediating this antioxidant response is Nrf-2. As the transcription factor Nrf-2 enters the nucleus and the expression of genes related to antioxidation increases, the antioxidant capacity of cells increases.

[0629] Specifically, the SH-SY5Y cell line was exposed to Compound 1aaa (Compound 1, 10 .Math.M) for 24 hours and then the cells were taken. Thereafter, the nuclear fraction was extracted, then Western blotting was performed to analyze the amount of Nrf-2 in the nucleus, and the results are illustrated in FIG. 7.

[0630] As illustrated in FIG. 7, it has been confirmed that the amount of Nrf-2 in the nucleus is increased by about 1.5 times by the treatment with Compound 1aaa of the present invention. Consequently, it can be seen that Compound 1aaa of the present invention activates the cellular antioxidant system by increasing the induction and nuclear import of Nrf-2.

Experimental Example 6

Evaluation of Efficacy of Inhibiting Nerve Cell Death

[0631] The dopaminergic neuronal cell protecting effect of the compound of the present invention was evaluated in an animal model of Parkinson’s disease. The animal model used was 7-week-old C57B16/J mice (23 to 25 g), to which MPTP (15 mg/kg) was administered 4 times at 1.5 hour intervals. For 1 to 2 days after administration, behavior was noticeably slowed and gradually recovered. In 1 week after MPTP administration, behavior was almost normalized to a level similar to that of normal mice. However, fine and precise motor skills were decreased, dopamine concentration in the striatum was significantly reduced, and histopathologically, dopamine neurons were significantly reduced in the substantia nigra.

6-1. Evaluation 1

[0632] In order to evaluate the efficacy of the compounds of the present invention, Compounds 1aaa (Compound 1), lace (Compound 27), 1ahe (Compound 44) and 1aje (Compound 62) were each administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg for 1 week, then MPTP (15 mg/kg x 4 times) was injected. These compounds were additionally administered for 1 week, and then dopamine innervation in the substantia nigra region was analyzed through immunostaining.

[0633] Specifically, selegiline, 1aaa, lace, 1ahe, 1aje, and apocynin were administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg for 7 days, then MPTP (15 mg/kg x 4 times) was administered to induce damage to dopaminergic neurons. After 7 days of additional administration of the compounds at the same dose, the animals were sacrificed. Immunostaining was performed using tyrosine hydroxylase antibody to measure the survival rate of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons.
