금오산이라는 이름은 어느 날 이곳을 지나던 아도(阿道)화상이 저녁놀 속으로 황금빛 까마귀가 나는 모습을 보고 지었다는 이야기가 전하며, 태양의 정기를 받은 명산이라고 한다.

The present study aimed to investigate comparative anti-inflammatory effects of Litsea japonica fruit and leaf extract considering the balance of safety and efficacy. Dose response studies were performed to determine the inhibitory effects of 70% EtOH extract of leaf (L70%) on the pro-inflammatory enzymes expression, COX-2/PGE2 and NO/iNOS, and pro-inflammatory cytokines production, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, and TNF-$\alpha$ in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. We also examined comparative effects of 30 and 70% EtOH extract of fruits (F30% and F70%) at low concentration ($10{\mu}g/ml$ ) in the same conditions. L70% at 50 and $100{\mu}g/ml$ showed inhibitory effects on almost all the inflammatory mediators we examined except for COX-2 regulation, but there were no effects at $10{\mu}g/ml$. Since $100{\mu}g/ml$ of L70% have 18.2% cytotoxicity, we compared the effects of fruit extract, F30% and F70% at $10{\mu}g/ml$ on the regulation of NO/iNOS, PGE2, IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, and TNF-$\alpha$ and obtained that fruit extacts are more efficacious and safe than leaf. This study suggests that the 30% EtOH fraction of L. japonica fruit could be a good candidate for development as a functional food supplement in the prevention of inflammatory disorders.

8월에는 칠석(七夕, 음력 7월 7일)과 백중(百中, 음력 7월 15일) 등 두 번의 절기가 있다. 칠석은 견우, 직녀의 아름다운 사랑이야기로 유명하다. 이날 저녁에는 하늘을 보면서 동쪽의 견우성과 서쪽의 직녀성이 까치, 까마귀가 놓은 오작교(은하수)에서 만나 기쁨과 슬픔의 눈물을 흘리는 것을 상상해도 좋을 듯하다.

Two species of the Korean Agaricales are described and illustrated in this paper. Two genera Cystoagaricus and Limacella are new to Korean agaric flora. All of these, Cystoagaricus strobilomyces and Limacella glioderma are recorded for the first time in the Korean fungus flora. The collections cited are all preserved in the Herbarium Conservation Center of National Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease characterized by the progressive degradation of joint cartilage and is accompanied by secondary inflammation of synovial membranes. The purpose of this study describes a preliminary evaluation of the anti-inflammatory activity on test material of Litsea japonica. fruit (LJTM) Also, this study was to evaluate the effects of LJTM on the joint cartilage of rat with OA induced by monosodium iodoacetate (MIA). To study for anti-inflammatory agents effectively, we first examined the inhibitory effect of the LJTM on the production of pro-inflammatory factors and cytokines stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. We identified anti-nociceptive effects of the LJTM by using in vivo peripheral and central nervous pain models. In addition, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects on mRNA expression of MMP-2, -3, -7, -9, -13, TIMP-1 and –2 in cartilage of OA. In the LJTM inhibited production of pro-inflammatory mediators (NO and PGE₂) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6). In cartilage, Expression of MMPs and TIMPs mRNA was suppressed in LJTM treatment group than in the control group. This study suggests that LJTM are potential candidates as anti-inflammation and anti-osteoarthritis agents (painkillers) for the treatment of OA.

대부분의 사람들은 수를 이해하면서도 인류가 수 개념을 형성하는데 얼마나 어려웠으며, 얼마나 많은 역사적 경로를 통하여 이루어진 것인가는 모르고 있다. 버틀랜드 럿셀(B. Russell, 1872-1970)이 "한 쌍의 정과 이틀이라는 날짜가 모두 2라는 수의 구체적인 보기임을 인류가 깨닫게 되기까지에는 아찔하리 만큼 길고 긴 세월이 흘러야 했다." 라고 말할 만한 이유가 있는 것이다 동물들은 사물의 개수조차도 셀 수 없다고 한다. 다른 동물에 비해 아주 영리한 까마귀만이 10정도의 숫자를 셀 수 있다고 한다. 이렇듯 수를 센다는 것 자체가 지능을 나타내는 지표가 된다. IQ에 수 개념을 측정하는 항목이 있는 것은 당연하다 하겠으며, 초등학생들이 수 개념의 이해에 많은 애로점이 있을 것이라 예상할 수 있다.(중략) 수 있다.(중략)

To investigate the vegetation structure of the section from Naesosa to Naebyonsan district, thirty plots which Size is $100m^2$ were set up in the Byeonsan Peninsula National Park. According to the classification(TWINSPAN) and ordination(DCA) analysis which were used for community division, the plots are appeared in uncontiguity with each ones. At the end of classification analysis, the community was divided into the four groups of Pinus densiflora(I), Pinus densiflora-Quercus serrata(II), Zelkova serrata-Rhamnella frangulioides(III) and Aphanaghe aspera-Rhamnella frangulioides community(IV). Through the results, Pinus densiflora community coast-sided will be going with status quo, but Pinus densiflora-Quercus serrata community inland-sided will progress toward Q. serrata dominated community. It was turned out that the forest of the Byeonsan Peninsula National Park is about over 40-year-old through tree ring analysis.

This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidant effects of extracts from 9 species of forest plants in Korea. DPPH, ABTS, $NaNO_2$, hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging activity and reducing power activity were evaluated to measure the antioxidant activities of plant extracts. As a result, Geranium thunbergii has been identified as the most effective antioxidant resource. Also, total phenolic content was highest in Geranium thunbergii ($303.94{\pm}0.63mg\;GAE/g$) among 9 species extracts. Total flavonoid content was highest in Rosa multiflora ($24.32{\pm}0.22mg\;QE/g$) and proanthocyanidin content was highest in Vitis ficifolia ($279.00{\pm}4.58mg\;CE/g$) among 9 species extracts. In addition, the protective effect of plant extracts in $H_2O_2-induced$ human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cell systems were also assessed. Significant protective effects in $H_2O_2-induced$ human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cell systems were found in all plant extracts, especially in Geranium thunbergii. These results suggest that Geranium thunbergii could be a potential natural resource for antioxidant activity.

The Natural Monument Forest (NMF) is a form of natural and cultural heritage that has symbolized the harmony between nature and culture in Korea for a long time. Recently, the NMF has deteriorated due to industrialization and reckless city expansion. Given this situation, it is necessary to preserve and manage the ecosystem of the NMF through preferential research regarding the forest community structure. Accordingly, this study sought to identify the community structure by analyzing the vegetation classification, stratum structure,and species diversity using vegetation data collected from the Forest of Japanese Torreyas in Pyeongdae-ri, Jeju and the Subtropical Forest of Nabeup-ri, Jeju. The results classified the forest vegetation as a Litsea japonica community group divided into two communities: a Torreya nuciferacommunity and a Quercus glauca community. The T. nuciferacommunity was subdivided into the Idesia polycarpa group and Dryopteris erythrosora group, while the Q. glauca community was subdivided into the Mercurialis leiocarpa group and Arachniodes aristata group. The T. nucifera species showed the highest level of importance in vegetation units 1 (Litsea japonicacommunity group-Torreya nucifera community-Idesia polycarpa group) and 2 (Litsea japonica community group-Torreya nucifera community-Dryopteris erythrosora group), whereas Q. glauca showed the highest level of importance in vegetation units 3 (Litsea japonica community group-Quercus glauca community-Mercurialis leiocarpa group) and 4 (Litsea japonica community group-Quercus glauca community-Arachniodes aristata group). In terms of the species diversity, vegetation units 1, 2, 3, and 4 had 2.866, 2.716, 2.222, and 2.326 species, respectively. These findings suggest that it is necessary to prepare a differentiated management plan for each vegetation unit.
