Staphylococcus aureus SA2, which was isolated from patient, is resistant to 10 usual antibiotics. The methanolic extracts of 21 well-known herb materials were combined with 10 antibiotics and applied to cheek inhibitory effects on the resistance of S. aureus SA2. The hexane fractions from methanolic extracts of Acori graminei Rhizoma and Anethi Fructus had most potent activity to inhibit the resistance of the bacteria when combined with ampicilin or chloramphenicol.

The present study was designed to evaluate central inhibitory effects of an essential oil from Acori graminei Rhizoma (AGR), the dry rhizomes of Acorus gramineus Solander (Araceae) upon fragrance inhalation (aroma therapy). Preinhalation of an essential oil of AGR markedly delayed the appearance of pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsion. Furthermore, the inhalation of an essential oil of AGR impressively inhibited the activity of ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transaminase, a degradating enzyme for GABA as inhalation period is lengthened.

The combination of hexane extract (E4) of rhizome of Acorus gramineus with chloramphenicol (Cm) was applied to Gram negative Cm resistant microbials to find the possibility of clinical use and to clarify the relationship of the activity of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT). The combination of $1,000\;{\mu}g/ml$ of E4 and $8\;{\mu}g/ml$ of Cm entirely ceased the growth of S. aureus SA2, a gram positive resistant strain to 10 antibiotics. But in Gram negative strains which possess CAT activity, some showed considerably strong resistances to Cm and some did weakly.

베타아사론은 널리 알려진 석창포의 주요 효능 성분이다. 본 연구에서는 모기의 oviposition 페로몬 성분인 MOP와 석창포 효능성분 베타아사론의 열대집모기 후각 단백질 CquiOBP1 활성 부위에 대한 친화도 분석 실험을 컴퓨터 분자결합 분석 방법을 통해 비교하였다. CquiOBP1 후각 단백질의 3차원 구조 정보는 PDB database (PDB ID: 3OGN)를 활용하였다. In silico 결합 분석을 수행하기 위해 PyRx, Autodock Vina, Discovery Studio Version 4.5, and NX-QuickPharm 프로그램을 각 분석 조건에 따라 활용하였다. CquiOBP1 후각단백질 활성 부위에 대한 베타아사론의 결합친화도는 -6.40 kcal/mol으로 나왔으며 이는 -6.00 kcal/mol으로 나온 MOP의 결합친화도 보다 훨씬 더 높고 효율적인 것으로 분석되었다. 리간드와 상호작용 하는 CquiOBP1단백질 활성 부위의 아미노산들 가운데 TRP114가 공히 MOP와 베타아사론과 결합 하였다. CquiOBP1 단백질 활성부위의 아미노산들을 전혀 다른 전기적 성질을 지닌 아미노산으로 치환 시킨 후 분자결합 분석을 해 본 결과 리간드들의 X,Y,Z Grid 값에 현격한 변화가 유도되었으며 결합 친화도 또한 감소되었다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 베타아사론은 CquiOBP1 단백질 활성을 조절하는 리간드로서 효과적으로 작용할 것으로 보인다. 결론적으로 석창포 추출물 또는 베타아사론은 곤충기피제 신물질 연구 개발 분야에 효율적으로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Chongmyung-tang(CMT, 聰明湯), oriental herbal medicine which consists of Polygaglae Radix(遠志), Acori Graminei Rhizoma(石菖蒲) and Hoelen(白茯神) has effect on amnesia, dementia. In order to evaluate effect of CMT on memory and learning in mice, CMT extract was used for studies. This paper describes the effects of CMT extract on memory and learning processes by using the passive and active avoidance performance tests, novel object recognition task and water maze task. The CMT extract ameliorated the memory retrieval deficit induced by ethanol in the passive avoidance responses but did not affect ambulatory activity of normal mice. These results suggest that CMT has an ameliorating effect on memory retrieval impairment. CMT extract decreased spontaneous motor activity(SMA) in the latter sessions of memory registration in active avoidance responses. These results suggest that CMT has partly transquilizing or antianxiety effects. In novel object recognition task to measure visual recognition memory, CMT-administered mice enhanced in long term memory for 1-3 days. In water maze task to measure spatial learning, which requires the activation of NMDA receptors in the hippocampus, spatial learning in CMT-administered mice was faster than in wild-type mice. These results suggest that CMT enhances memory and activates NMDA receptors.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the trend of Tranditional Chinese Medicine for Otitis Media with Effusion(OME) in Chinese journals. Methods : Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) and Wanfang med online were used to search Chinese studies which were published from January, 2010 to April, 2020. Results : Among Chinese studies, Exterior-releasing medicinal(解表藥) and Heat-clearing medicinal(淸熱藥) were the most frequently used. The herbs which used the most frequently are Bupleuri Radix(柴胡), Acori Graminei Rhizoma(石菖蒲). All of studies have reported that Tranditional Chinese Medicine is effective for Otitis Media with Effusion. Conclusions : In analysis of selected studies, Tranditional Chinese Medicine is more effective than Western Medicine Treatments. Recurrence rates and side effects of OME can be reduced by cotreatment of Tranditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine Treatments.
