Abstract

Taklysodoksan(TSS) was a drug used in the treatment of carbuncle and cellulitis in oriental medicine. The purpose of this Study is to investigate the anti-cancer effect of TSS, the proliferation of immunocytes and nitric oxide(NO) production from peritoneal macrophages of mice. This Study estimated the proliferation of Ll210 cell lines, mouse thymocytes and splenocytes and NO production from peritoneal macrophages in vitro and vivo. The proliferation of cells was tested using a colorimetric tetrazoliun assay(MTT assay). From the in vitro and vivo Study of TSS treatment, it did not effect the proliferation of L1210 cells. It also did not have any positive prodution of NO in peritoneal macrophages. This results suggest that TSS treatment in WanBingHuiChun(萬病回春) did not have significant anti-cancer effect and immuno-action comparing with TSS treatment of WaiKeZhengZhong(外科正宗).
