Description

근육 강화를 위한 근적외선 및 초음파 융합 자극기Near-infrared and ultrasound fusion stimulator for muscle strengthening

본 발명은 근육 강화를 위한 근적외선 및 초음파 융합 자극기에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 근감소를 예방하고 완화하는 근적외선 및 초음파 융합 자극기에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a near-infrared and ultrasound fusion stimulator for muscle strengthening, and more specifically, to a near-infrared and ultrasound fusion stimulator for preventing and alleviating muscle loss.

세계적으로 급속하게 고령화가 진행되고 있으며, 현재 우리나라의 고령화 속도는 세계 최고수준으로, 2026년 65세 노인인구가 20%를 넘는 초고령사회에 진입할 예정이다.The world is rapidly aging, and Korea is currently experiencing the fastest aging rate in the world, with the country expected to enter a super-aged society in 2026, with the population aged 65 and over exceeding 20%.

고령화로 인한 국가 잠재성장률의 지속적인 하락과 국가 의료비 지출이 상승하고 있으며, 그에 따라 고령화에 따른 인지, 근골격계 등 신체기능 저하를 조기 발견하여 이를 관리함으로써 노화를 지연시킬 필요성 대두되고 있다.As the national potential growth rate continues to decline and national medical expenses increase due to the aging population, the need to delay aging by early detection and management of declines in cognitive, musculoskeletal, and other physical functions due to aging is emerging.

노인성 근감소증(Sarcopenia)은 노화가 진행되면서 근육이 감소하는 질환으로 60대의 유병률이 40% 이상으로 인구 고령화에 따라 급속히 증가하는 추세이다.Sarcopenia is a disease in which muscle mass decreases with aging. The prevalence rate among people in their 60s is over 40%, and it is rapidly increasing as the population ages.

노인성 근감소증은 골격근의 감소로 인해 낙상 및 신체기능 장애를 유발하고, 이차적으로 대사질환, 비만, 당뇨, 골감소증 등을 유발하고 있다. 65세 이상 노인들을 6년 간 추적 관찰한 결과, 근육량과 근력이 부족한 남성의 경우 사망 위험률은 4.1배 높았고, 보행 속도까지 느린 경우엔 사망 위험률이 9.5배까지 높아졌다(출처: 분당서울대병원 내분비내고하 임수교수님, 65세 이상 한국인 565명 6년간 추적한 연구: Public Library of Science 2016).Senile sarcopenia causes falls and physical dysfunction due to a decrease in skeletal muscle mass, and secondarily causes metabolic diseases, obesity, diabetes, and osteopenia. As a result of a 6-year follow-up observation of the elderly over 65 years, the risk of death was 4.1 times higher in men with insufficient muscle mass and strength, and the risk of death was up to 9.5 times higher in those with slow walking speeds (Source: Professor Im Soo-kyo, Department of Endocrinology, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, a study that followed 565 Koreans over 65 years for 6 years: Public Library of Science 2016).

그러나, 현재 노화성 근감소증에 대한 국내외 연구는 아직 초기 단계로, 근력운동과 단백질 섭취의 식이요법 외에는 별다른 예방 및 치료책이 전무한 실정이다.However, domestic and international research on age-related sarcopenia is still in its initial stages, and there are no preventive or therapeutic measures other than strength training and dietary protein intake.

본 발명의 일실시에에 따른 근적외선 및 초음파 융합 자극기가 근육세포에 850 nm 또는 1050 nm의 근적외선 광을 3일간 조사한 경우, 도 5의 (a)의 L6 세포 분화시와 도 5의 (b)의 C2C12 세포 분화시, 근적외선 광을 조사하지 않았을 때와 비교하여, MHC 발현이 상대적으로 촉진됨을 알 수 있다. When a near-infrared and ultrasound fusion stimulator according to one embodiment of the present invention irradiates muscle cells with near-infrared light of 850 nm or 1050 nm for 3 days, it can be seen that MHC expression is relatively promoted compared to when the near-infrared light is not irradiated, in the case of L6 cell differentiation in Fig. 5 (a) and in the case of C2C12 cell differentiation in Fig. 5 (b).

이를 통해 근육을 구성하는 근육세포의 분화하는 과정동안, 근적외선 LED 파장의 다양한 에너지별 조사에 따른 근육세포 분화의 정도가 촉진됨을 알 수 있다.Through this, it can be seen that during the differentiation process of muscle cells that constitute the muscles, the degree of muscle cell differentiation is promoted according to irradiation with various energies of near-infrared LED wavelengths.

보다 상세하게 설명하면, 도 7의 (a)는 근육세포의 L6의 분화전을 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (b)는 근적외선 광을 조사하지 않은 경우의 L6의 분화후를 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (c)는 850 nm의 근적외선 광을 조사한 경우의 L6의 분화후를 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (d)는 1050 nm의 근적외선 광을 조사한 경우의 L6의 분화후를 도시한 도면이다.To explain in more detail, Fig. 7 (a) is a drawing showing the differentiation of L6 of muscle cells before, Fig. 7 (b) is a drawing showing the differentiation of L6 when not irradiated with near-infrared light, Fig. 7 (c) is a drawing showing the differentiation of L6 when irradiated with near-infrared light of 850 nm, and Fig. 7 (d) is a drawing showing the differentiation of L6 when irradiated with near-infrared light of 1050 nm.

또한, 도 7의 (e)는 근육세포의 C2C12의 분화전을 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (f)는 근적외선 광을 조사하지 않은 경우의 C2C12의 분화후를 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (g)는 850 nm의 근적외선 광을 조사한 경우의 C2C12의 분화후를 도시한 도면이고, 도 7의 (h)는 1050 nm의 근적외선 광을 조사한 경우의 C2C12의 분화후를 도시한 도면이다.In addition, Fig. 7 (e) is a drawing showing the differentiation of C2C12 muscle cells before, Fig. 7 (f) is a drawing showing the differentiation of C2C12 when not irradiated with near-infrared light, Fig. 7 (g) is a drawing showing the differentiation of C2C12 when irradiated with near-infrared light of 850 nm, and Fig. 7 (h) is a drawing showing the differentiation of C2C12 when irradiated with near-infrared light of 1050 nm.
