Objectives : This study is aimed at establishing the discriminative criteria for Adenophorae Radix (AT; Sasam), Codonopsis Lanceolatae Radix (CL; Yangyu) and Adenophorae Remotiflori Radix (AR; Jeni). Because of confusable publications and the similitude of herb shape, CL and AR have been used as AT in the markets. Methods : We firstly discriminated and confirmed AT, CL and AR through observing the external morphology of original plants. Then, external-internal morphological features of the medicinal herbs were studied. A stereoscope was used to determine macroscopic features of dried herbal medicines and a microscope was conducted to examine internal features with the samples, which were embedded in paraffin and stained. Results : 1. The original plant of CL was discriminated with the stem shape in comparison with others. AT and AR were classified by the leaf position of original plant. 2. In the macroscopic morphological study of medicinal herbs, CL had lumps, which seem like a wart. Also, AT and AR were different in the density of cross section. 3. In the microscopic morphological study of the medicinal herbs, the phloem, fissures and the arrangement of xylem were selected as discriminative criteria for 3 kinds of herbs. With these contents, we suggested the identification keys, including further details. Conclusions : These results, especially identification keys, will be helpful to distinguish 3 kinds of herbs, referred to as a 'Sasam'. Moreover, macroscopic and microscopic methods used in this article would be applicable tools for the discrimination of other herbs.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and biosafety of Adenophorae Radix(AR) extract in obesity or overweight patient. Methods: This study is double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled intervention Study. 30 patients with BMI $25{\leq}$ and 30> were allotted into two groups at random. In 0, $6^{th}$, $12^{th}$ week, we had checked body weight, waist line, hip line, body fat and abdominal CT scan. In 0, $12^{th}$ week, we also had checked lipid metabolism and biosafety with blood test. Results: AR treatment had a significant effect on suppressing body wight gain (p<0.01) and BMI index(p<0.01). AR treatment reduced plasma TG level but we couldn't find statistical significance. AR treatment had produced no adverse reactions. Conclusions: This study shows that Adenophorae Radix(AR) extract can reduce the weight, BMI. Adenophorae Radix(AR) extract can be used in obesity or overweight patient.

50여개의 primer를 사용하여 잔대 Adenophora triphylla와 층층잔대 A. radiatifolia Nakai, 그리고 더덕 Codonopsis laceolata Trautv의 지역간, 속간의 차이점과 감별여부를 RAPD법으로 시행한 결과, 잔대와 층층잔대의 차이점은 거의 없었으며, 더덕의 지역차이는 0.889의 유전적거리를 나타내었다. 두 종(種)을 구별할 수 있는 특이 band로는 primer 357, 361, 363, 393 이었으며, 건조약재와 비교하였을 때 재현성이 확인되었고, 또한 잔대와 더덕의 건조약재를 각각 혼합시켰을 때 이를 구별할 수 있는 major band가 뚜렷이 나타나 혼용되어있는 건조약재에서의 감별이 가능함을 알 수 있었다..

Triterpenoid, saponin, 전분 등이 함유되어 있는 것으로 알려진 Adenophorae radix (A. radix)의 뿌리 추출물을 이용하여 각질형성세포의 분화와 피부장벽기능에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. A. radix의 뿌리 추출물은 CV-1 세포를 이용하여 $PPAR{\alpha}$ 발현을 살펴본 결과, Wy-14,643 $0.5-1.0{\mu}M$ 수준의 발현양을 나타내었다. 인체 각질형성 세포주(HaCaT)와 각질형성세포(nomal human keratinocyte)에 대한 각질형성능(cornified envelop formation, CE)은 대조군에 비해 통계적으로 유의한 증가를 보였다. HaCaT 세포에 A. radix의 뿌리 추출물 처리하였을 때, transglutaminase (TGase-1)의 유의적 증가를 보였다. A. radix의 뿌리 추출물을 함유한 간단한 화장품 제형을 약 2주간에 걸쳐 임상시험을 실시한 결과, TEWL의 유의적 감소와 수분량의 증가를 살펴볼 수 있었으며, 하박 내측에서 지질을 추출하여 세라마이드를 분석한 결과 통계적으로 유의한 증가를 관찰할 수 있었다. 이를 통하여 A. radix의 뿌리 추출물을 건조피부나 아토피 등의 피부질환과 관련된 질환의 예방 및 치료제로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study is to establish the quality control method of Adenophorae Radix. (6R,7R)-E,E-tetradeca-4,12-diene-8,10-diyne-1,6,7-triol (1) isolated from this plant was adequate as an analytical marker. Content of 1 in Adenophorae Radix was $0.006\;{\pm}\;0.003%$ (n = 43). In addition, total ash content was $6.5\;{\pm}\;4.0%$, and loss on drying was $12.1\;{\pm}\;2.1%$.

A simple GC method with a FID detector was developed in order to determine two main compounds (${\beta}$-sitosterol and lupenone) for Adenophorae Radix. ${\beta}$-Sitosterol and lupenone were analyzed by the gradient thermal ramping method. Nitrogen was used as the carrier gas at 108 kPa. The flow rate of gas was 2.0 mL/min; $2{\mu}L$ of filtered sample was injected at a split ratio of 1 : 80. This method was fully validated with respect to linearity, precision, accuracy and robustness. Further, this GC-FID method was applied successfully in order to quantify two compounds in an Adenophorae Radix extract. The GC analytical method for classification analysis was performed by repeated analysis of 59 reference samples in order to differentiate between Adenophora triphylla var. japonica Hara and 14 Codonopsis lanceolata. The results indicate that the GC-FID method is suitable and reliable for the quality evaluation of Adenophorae Radix.

Adenophorae Radix (AR) has been used as a traditional medicine for various diseases. However, the regulatory effects of AR in atopic dermatitis are not yet understood. This study attempted to determine the pharmacological effects of AR and its constituent on both compound 48/80 or histamine-induced scratching behaviors and 2, 4-dinitrochlrobenzene (DNCB)-induced atopic dermatitis in mice. The findings of this study demonstrated that AR reduced compound 48/80 or histamine-induced scratching behaviors in mice. Treatment of AR attenuated the AD symptoms such as eczematous, erythema and dryness and serum IgE and IL-6 levels in AD model. Additionally, AR inhibited the TNF-${\alpha}$-induced the Nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ activation in HaCaT cells. Collectively, the findings of this study provide us with novel insights into the pharmacological actions of AR as a potential molecule for therapeutic agent against atopic dermatitis.

Adenophorae Radix, the roots of Adenophora triphylla var. japonica Hara (Campanulaceae) is known to be an anti-inflammatory and antitussive drug used for the treatment of lung disease. However quality control method is not established yet. This study is to establish the quality control method of Adenophorae Radix.From the roots of this plant, we isolated (6R,7R)-E,E-tetradeca-4,12-diene-8,10-diyne-1,6,7-triol (1) as a marker compound for the quality control and determined its content by HPLC-UV detector.

Objectives : The present study was purposed to compare Adenophorae Radix (henceforth AR), Codonopsis lanceolatae Radix (henceforth ClR) and Glehniae Radix cum Rhizoma (henceforth GRcR) concerning their anti-oxidant effect. Methods : We measured eythrocyte, leukocyte, thrombocyte, serum albumin, total bilirubin, LDL cholesterol, and glucose as well as SOD, GSH, catalase, NO, and MDA in the rat liver oxidatively stressed by AAPH. Results : 1. The oxidative stress-induced thrombocyte levels were significantly decreased in CIR-treated and GRcR-treated groups. 2. The oxidative stress-impaired SOD acitivities were significantly recovered in AR-treated and GRcR-treated groups. 3. The oxidative stress-reduced GSH contents were significantly increased in ClR-treated and GRcR-treated groups. 4. The oxidative stress-reduced catalase contents were significantly increased in all of the three groups. 5. The oxidative stress-induced NO productions were significantly decreased in all of the three groups. Conclusions : AR, ClR, and GRcR altogether showed the anti-oxidant effect in the rat liver oxidatively stressed by AAPH. The anti-oxidant properties of tAR, ClR, and GRcR seem to be similar even if those have different botanical properties and different medical efficacies in oriental medicine.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Adenophorae Radix (AR) on melanogenesis of B16F10 mouse melanoma cells. The cells were treated for 5 days with AR at several concentrations. Treatment with AR suppressed melanin contents as a dose dependent manner without cytotoxicity and morphological change. And the extract of AR also inhibited tyrosinase activity, a key enzyme forming melanin, in a dose-dependent manner, Treatment of the cells with Adenophorae Radix also suppressed the increase of α-MSH (10 nM)-induced melanin contents and tyrosinase activity. These results suggest that AR inhibits melanogenesis and abrogates α-MSH-induced melanogenesis in B16 melanoma cells.
