Research Abstract |
Homeostasis of skin physiology is maintained by the subcutaneous tissue structure and the normal turnover of hypodermically division cell. Change of skin environment disturb these skin physiology, and give a damage to subcutaneous tissue. This research aimed to develop sonotherapy system for maintenance of skin homeostasis. 1.Ultrasonic Generator : PZT element attached to the bottom of irradiation container was connected by an amplifier and generator (IWATSU, SG-4105 and NF HSA4101). This system produced 1-7 MHz ultrasound. 2.Influence to Cell growth : In order to estimate the safety of the created equipment, the influence of ultrasound to cell growth was investigated. U937 cell, human lymphoma cell, was irradiated with 1-7 MHz ultrasound. Dependencies of sound power and irradiation time were analyzed. 3.Inactivation of mushroom tyrosinase. : When the enzyme solution was irradiated with 1 MHz ultrasound at intensity 0.47 W/cm^2 or less, tyrosinase activity was reduced during irradiation and then recovered immediately after irradiation. On the other hand, the enzyme was irradiated at intensity greater than 0.47 W/cm^2, the reduction of tyrosinase activity was continued after irradiation. Experiment of ESR-spin trapping with dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide showed the production of hydroxyl radical in US-irradiated buffer solution at intensity rather than 0.47 W/cm^2. Although 0.25 M mannitol scavenged hydroxyl radical in US-irradiated buffer solution, the effect of mannitol on the US-induced inactivation of tyrosinase was not observed. While neither catalase nor SOD showed the effect on enzyme activity after US-irradiation, in the presence of Cu^<2+> (10^<-6>M〜10^<-4>M), ultrasound did not induce the inactivation of tyrosinase. These results suggest that the mechanism of US-induced inactivation of tyrosinase is based on Cu^<2+> release from reactive center of the enzyme rather than US-induced ROIs.
