Hand-foot syndrome (HFS) frequently occurs after receiving chemotherapy, such as sorafenib, in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and this impairs quality of life (QOL). The prevalence of HFS due to sorafenib is 10-28%. The effective methods to treat HFS are not established aside from temporary discontinuation of chemotherapy agents and drug dosage adjustment because the mechanism of HFS has not been elucidated. According to a previous study, modified Dohongsamul-tang was effective in the treatment of patients with HFS and improved patients' QOL. Based on these results, we administered the soaking method with modified Dohongsamul-tang to a 50-year-old male patient with HCC complaining of HFS due to sorafenib. After two weeks, the symptoms of HFS were improved despite taking sorafenib. We suggest that modified Dohongsamul-tang is a novel method for treating HFS.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of Samul-tang Extract and Bambusae caulis in liquamen(SEB) on the changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) in normal rats. The results were as follows ; SBE significantly increased rCBF in a dose-dependent manner, and increased MABP in a dose-dependent manner. This result suggests that SBE significantly increased rCBF by dilating pial arterial diameter. Increase of SBE-induced rCBF was significantly inhibited by pretreatment with indomethacin (1 mg/kg, i.p.), an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase and increase of SBE-induced rCBF was inhibited by pretreatment with methylene blue ($10\;{\mu}g/kg$, i.p.), an inhibitor of guanylate cyclase. Increase of SBE-induced MABP was significantly increased by pretreatment with methylene blue but increase of SBE-induced MABP was decreased by pretreatment with indomethacin. These results suggested that the action of SBE was mediated by cyclooxygenase.

Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and wound healing effects of Samul-tang-ga-dansam water extract (SD) in wound-induced mice. Methods The mice were divided into five groups (n=7): the normal group, the control group, the positive control group, the low-dose SD group and the high-dose SD group. The normal group had no wounds and the other groups were wounded on the back with a leather punch. Distilled water was administered to the control group, 200 mg/kg of vitamin E was administered to the positive control group. In the low-dose SD group and the high-dose SD group, 1.23 g/kg and 2.47 g/kg of SD were administered, respectively. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protein levels were evaluated using western blot analysis. Skin tissue was analyzed by H&E, Masson's trichrome staining method. Results Oral administration of the SD significantly reduced the visible skin damage and decreased the reactive oxygen species and ONOO^- activity of the serum. It significantly increased heme oxygenase-1, superoxide dismutase, catalase, GPx-1/2, Nrf2 and Keap-1 which are antioxidant-related factors in skin tissue and reduced NF-κB p65, inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 which are inflammation-related factors. Also, SD significantly decreased NOX2, p22^phox and p47^phox and increased α-smooth muscle actin and COL1A1 protein expression in fibroblasts involved in connective tissue repair. According to histological examination, the thickened epithelial layer was thinned and collagen fibers were increased to accelerate wound healing. Conclusions It is suggested that Samul-tang-ga-dansam has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and promotes wound tissue repair.

Objectives : Epidermal growth factor receptor-inhibitors have demonstrated improved overall survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, but their use is associated with dermatologic adverse reactions that often require symptomatic treatment. Methods : A 44-year-old woman, who started the chemotherapy of Iressa$^{(R)}$ on August 2010, developed cutaneous symptoms such as papulopustular rash, dry skin, and pruritus on her face and scalp after taking Iressa$^{(R)}$ for four weeks. The patient visited our clinic with such symptoms on March 2011 and underwent herebal remedy targeted to alleviate the skin reactions. The severity of dermatologic symptoms was evaluated with the numeric rating scale and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. Results : Noticeable changes on the skin lesion were observed after the two months of treatment, without any dose modification of the Iressa$^{(R)}$. The cutaneous symptoms as papulopustular rash, dry skin and pruritus were improved and there was no adverse event induced by the treatment with herbal medicine. Conclusions : This case report suggests that the treatment with a herbal medicine, Samultang-gagambang be considered as a useful treatment to relieve EGFR-inhibitor induced dermatologic adverse reactions.

Objectives : The water extract of Samul-tang (SMT) has traditionally been used for treatment of ischemic heart and brain damage in oriental medicine. However, little is known about the mechanism by which the water extract of SMT rescues cells from these damages. Methods: This study was designed to investigate the protective mechanisms of SMT on oxidative stress-induced toxicity in H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells. Treatment with $H_2O_2$ markedly induced death of H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells in a dose-dependent manner. Results: The characteristics of H20z-induced death of H9c2 showed apparent apoptotic features such as DNA fragmentation and morphological change. However, SMT significantly reduced both H202-induced cell death and morphological change. The decrease of Bc-2 expression by High were inhibited by SMT. In addition, the increase of Bax expression was also inhibited by SMT. The cotreatment of SMT and $H_2O_2$ in H9c2 cells also induced the phosphorylation of ERK in a time-dependent manner. Moreover, PD98059, a specific inhibitor of ERK1/2 attenuated the protective effects of SMT on $H_2O_2-induced$ toxicity in H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells. These results suggest that both ERK1/2 signaling pathways play important roles in the protective effects of SMT on $H_2O_2-induced$ apoptotic death of H9c2 cells. Also, the expression profile of proteins in $H_2O_2$ cardiomyoblast cells were screened by using two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis. Among 300 spots resolved in 2-D gels, the comparison of control versus apoptosis cells revealed that signal intensity of 17 spots increased and 11 spots decreased. Conclusions: Taken together, this study suggests that the protectiw effects of the water extract of SMT against oxidative damages may be mediated by the modulation of Bc1-2 and Bax expression via the regulation of the ERK signaling pathway.
