  • The content of hyperin in Acanthopanax species was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Hyperin was quantified by a reverse-phase column with elution program [initially gradient solvent (acetonitrile : water = 85 : 15 to 80 : 20 for 20 min), then isocratic solvent (acetonitrile : water = 80 : 20 for 20 min), and finally gradient solvent (acetonitrile : water = 80 : 20 to 65 : 35 for 20 min)]. UV detection was conducted at 210 nm. The content of hyperin in the fruits of Acanthopanax was measured in the species A. chiisanensis (2.04 mg/g), A. sessiliflorus (1.13 mg/g), A. divaricatus (0.98 mg/g), A. koreanum (0.75 mg/g) and A. senticosus (0.05 mg/g). The content of hyperin in A. chiisanensis was higher than that of other Acanthopanax species.

  • High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used for the analysis of chiisanoside in Acanthopanax species. A reverse-phase system using a gradient of H$_2$O and acetonitrile as the mobile phase was developed and a wavelength of detection was at 210 nm. The analysis was successfully carried out for 30 min. Chiisanoside was measured in the fruit, stem and root of A. sessiliflorus, A. koreanus, A. divaricatus and A. senticosus.

  • We compared the effect between CAS and WAS(root, stem) on mast cell-mediated allergic reaction. CAS, WAS-root and WAS-stem, significantly inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic allergic reaction(1g/kg) and histamine release from RPMC(1mg/ml). CAS, WAS-root and WAS-stem also inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylactic reaction. In addition, IgE-induced $TNF-{\alpha}$ secretion from RBL-2H3 was inhibited by pretreatment of CAS, WAS-root or WAS-stem$(0.01{\mu}g/ml)$. Taken together, inhibitory effect on mast cell-mediated allergic reactions of WAS-root is greater than those of WAS-stem but less than those of CAS.

  • The pharmacological mechanisms of most Oriental medicines have not been clearly defined in spite of their effective use in treating many diseases throughout the world. Many Oriental medicines have been used against various allergic diseases for generations, and still occupy an important place in traditional medicine in far eastern countries including Korea. It is also still unclear how Oriental drugs prevent allergic disease in vivo or in vitro models. Some Korean folk medicine inhibited the mast cell-mediated allergic reaction. This review summarizes the effective folk medicine in experimental effect on systemic or local anaphylaxis reaction. Potential anti-anaphylactic folk medicines include: Poncirus trifoliata; Siegesbeckia glabrescence; Solanum lyratum; Aquilaria agallocha; Ulmi radicis; Polygonum tinctorium; Hwanglyun-Haedok-Tang; Rehmannia glutinosa; Kum-Hwag-San; Syzygium aromaticm; Spirulina platensis; Sosiho-Tang; Sinomenium acutum; Schizonepta tenuifolia; Shini-San; Magnoliae flos; Sochungryong-Tang; Oryza sativa; Cryptotympana atrata; Salviae radix; Rosa davurica; Asiasari radix; Chung-Dae-San; Cichorium intybus; Perilla frutescens; Vitex rotundifolia; Terminalia chebula; Siberian Ginseng; Solanum melongena; Gahmi-Shini-San; Alpinia oxyphylla; Acanthopanax senticosus root; Prunella vulgaris; Allergina; Ixeris dentate; Acanthopanax senticosus stem; Tongkyutang; Salvia plebeia; Rubus coreanus; Sinpo- Tang; Dodutang; Forsythia fructus; Xanthii fructus; and Purple bamboo slat. Ensuring the effects and understanding the mechanisms of action for these Oriental medicines can permit drug development and laying of the ground-work for evaluating potential synergistic effects by addition and subtraction of prescriptions.

  • The smear method developed by Velaskar and Chitre was modified to allow the screening of plant extracts and/or fractions for platelet anti-aggregating activity. The modified smear method was also found suitable for massive screening of pure compounds. Sample fractions prepared from various plant extracts were examined for their effects against ADP, arachidonic acid (AA) or collagen induced platelet aggregations. Several solvent fractions of plant extracts including water fraction prepared from the methanol extract of Acanthopanax sp. was inhibitory against rat platelet aggregations. The activity guided treatments and fractionations of the water fraction from A. senticosus Max yielded two anti-platelet aggregatory substances, 3, 4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (I) and its artefact ethyl 3, 4-dihydroxybenzoate(II). The inhibitory activities of I and II against rat platelet aggregation were compared with that of aspirin, a known inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Discussions also included the results of the investigations on the structural activity relationships among the various dihydroxybenzoic acid derivatives against platelet aggregations induced by either one of ADP, AA or collagen.

  • 목적 : 오가피 약침이 알코올에 의해서 중독된 Sprague-Dawley(S-D)계 흰쥐의 해마 치상회에서 새로운 신경세포 생성 및 NOS발현에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 방법 : S-D계 흰쥐에 알코올을(2g/kg) 3일간 연속으로 투여한후, 5일간 인체의 중완혈에 상응하는 부위에 오가피 약침(30mg/kg) 치료를 시행하였다. 치료효과를 관찰하기 위해서 BrdU-면역조직화학 염색법 및 NADPH-d-조직화학염색법을 이용하였다. 결과 : 알코올 처치군에서는 BrdU-양성세포수 및 NADPH-양성세포수가 모두 정상군에 비해서 감소한 반면에 알코올 처치후 오가피 약침으로 치료한 군에서는 BrdU-양성세포수 및 NADPH-양성세포수 모두 알코올 처치군에 비해서 증가하였다. 결론 : 오가피 약침치료가 알코올에 의해서 중독된 S-D계 흰쥐 해마 치상회에서 새로운 신경세포의 생성을 증가시키는 것을 확인하였으며, 그 기전으로 산화질소가 관여할 것으로 사려된다.

  • 목적: 오가피가 mouse testis에서 유래된 Leydig 세포주에서 에탄올에 의해 유발된 아폽토시스에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 방법: TM3 세포주에서의 아폽토시스 변화를 관찰하기 위해서 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), DNA fragmentation assay, 및 reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) 방법을 이용하였다. 결과: MTT assay를 이용하여 분석한 결과 농도에 따른 세포독성의 효과가 에탄올 투여부터 관찰되었다. 또한 오가피로 전처치하고 에탄올을 처치하였을 때 세포독성이 크게 감소되었다. DAPI staining에서 오가피 투여군은 에탄올 투여군에 비해서 fragmentation이 억제되었다. RT-PCR의 분석에 의하여 caspase-3 mRNA 발현이 오가피 투여군은 알코올 투여군보다 유의성있게 억제됨을 보여주었다. 결론: TM3 Leydig 세포주에서 에탄올에 의해 유발된 아폽토시스는 전형적인 세포사멸 형태를 나타내었다. 반면에 오가피 투여군은 에탄올에 의해서 유발된 아폽토시스에서 세포보호 효과가 있음이 확인되었다.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of Acanthopanax (A) senticosus and Eucommiaceae on the expression of lipogenic, myogenic and oxidative stress genes in broiler chickens. Birds were subjected (assigned) to one of the following 5 dietary treatments: control (CON), A. senticosus 0.5% (T1), 1.0% (T2), Eucommiaceae 0.5% (T3) and 1% (T4). Each treatment was replicated 8 times with 4 birds per replication, housed in 4 birds per cage. Birds were arranged according to randomized block design. Feeding trial was conducted from day 4 to 35th day of age. Liver and muscle tissues were collected for analysis. Broilers subjected to 1% A. senticosus had higher feed conversion ratio than the other treated birds whereas no significant differences were found in body weight, weight gain and feed intake. The gene expression levels of fatty acid synthase were not different among the treatments while the transcription factor $PPAR{\gamma}$ was highly expressed in Eucommiaceae but not in control and A. senticosus. The gene expression levels of myogenin were high in both A. senticosus and Eucommiaceae compared to control group. MyoD also showed high expression in treated groups furthermore, Eucommiaceae stimulated the expression of MyoD more than that of A. senticosus. The antioxidant gene expressions (SOD, CAT, SOD, GPX) generally were not much different among the treatments, however, SOD and GPX were stimulated in broilers consumed 1% Eucommiaceae diet. The result of this experiment showed that dietary supplementation of A. senticosus and Eucommiaceae in broiler may improve the antioxidant defence system through SOD and GPX without affect of growth performance in broilers.
