Objectives : In this study, the author tried to examine whether Gamijinhae-tang and Socheongryong-tang-ga-seokgo significantly affect both PMA-induced mucin production and MUC5AC gene expression from airway epithelial cells. Materials and Methods : Confluent NCI-H292 cells were pretreated for 30 min in the presence of JHT and STS and treated with PMA (10ng/ml), to assess the effects of the agents on PMA-induced mucin production by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Also, the effects of the agents on PMA-induced MUC5AC gene expression from the same cells were investigated. Possible cytotoxicities of the agent were assessed by examining the rate of survival and proliferation of NCI-H292 cells after treatment of agents during 48 hrs. Results : (1) JHT and STS did not show significant cytotoxicity to NCI-H292 cells. (2) JHT significantly decreased PMA-induced mucin production from NCI-H292 cells. However. STS did not affect mucin production. (3) JHT significantly inhibit the expression levels of PMA-induced MUC5AC gene in NCI-H292 cells. STS slightly decreased the expression levels of PMA-induced MUC5AC gene. Conclusion : These results suggest that JHT can not only affect the production of mucin but also affect the expression of the mucin gene, and this explains the traditional use of JHT in oriental medicine. The effects of JHT and STS with their components should be further investigated using animal experimental models that simulate pathophysiology of airway diseases through future studies.
