Objective This study investigated the effect of Korean Traditional medicine treatment with Acupuncture, Cupping, Physical Therapy and Ganghwalijetong-yeum(Qianghuochutong-yin) on Knee joint Osteoarthritis patients. Methods 5 Knee joint Osteoarthritis patients were treated with Ganghwalijetong-yeum(Qianghuochutong-yin), acupunture, cupping, physical therapy and exercise for Knee joint Osteoarthritis. K-WOMAC(Western Ontario and McMasters Universitis) Index, VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) were checked to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment. Results K-WOMAC of patients treated with Ganghwalijetong-yeum(Qianghuochutong-yin) is improved from $67.00{\pm}24.41$ to $44.80{\pm}21.18$ and there was statistical significance(p<0.05). VAS of patients treated with Ganghwalijetong-yeum(Qianghuochutong-yin) is also improved from $4.20{\pm}1.79$ to $2.30{\pm}1.10$ but there was no statistical significance(p>0.05).

본 증례에서는 수면 중 이갈이에 의해 발생한 턱관절 통증에 대하여 FCST를 포함한 침치료를 통해 양호한 치료효과가 있는 것을 관찰하였다. 상기 환자는 FCST의 균형측정지 검사상 TMJ의 경미한 불균형 외에 방사선 소견상 구조적인 큰 이상이 없었음에도 이갈이에 따른 심한 근육긴장으로 통증이 발생한 경우였다. 이것을 통해 FCST가 턱관절의 구조적인 문제에만 국한되어 적용되는 것이 아니라 턱관절 주위 근육 긴장의 빠른 회복에도 상당한 효과가 있음을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 야간에 TBA를 착용한 상태로 잠을 자게 되면 그 자체로 이갈이에 대한 예방효과가 있어 현재 턱관절통증 등의 증상이 없는 이갈이 환자에게도 예방적인 목적으로 TBA의 처방이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

목적 : 본 연구는 봉약침의 주요성분인 멜리틴이 전립선 암세포주인 DU-145 세포성장에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 알아보기 위하여 시행하였다. 방법 : 멜리틴이 DU-145의 성장에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 cell viability 측정으로는 WST-1 assay를, 세포자멸사의 관찰에는 DAPI(4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole)와 TUNEL staining assay를 시행하였으며, 세포자멸사 조절단백질(calpain, Bax, caspase-3, -9, cleaved caspase-3, cleavaged PARP, cleaved caspase-9, Bcl-2, XIAP, cIAP2, Akt, p-Akt, MMP-2, MMP-13)의 관찰을 위하여 western blot analysis를 시행하였다. 결과 : 1. DU-145 세포에서 멜리틴을 처리한 후 세포자멸사가 유도되어 세포성장이 억제되었다. 2. 세포자멸사 관련 단백질 중 분리된 caspase-3, caspase-9은 유의한 증가를, Bcl-2, p-Akt, XIAP, cXIAP는 유의한 감소를 나타내었다. 결론 : 이상의 결과는 멜리틴이 인간 전립선암세포주인 DU-145의 세포자멸사를 유발함으로써 증식억제 효과가 있음을 나타낸 것으로, 전립선암의 예방과 치료에 대한 효과적인 치료제 개발에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
