Antiinflammatory activities of the solvent fractionates of several herbal medicines were investigated and SKI306X was prepared from the active principles of three herbal medicines, Prunella vulgaris, Trichosantlies kirilowii and Clematis mandshurica. SK1306X was shown to have strong inhibitory effects on acetic acid-induced pain, carrageenan-induced paw edema and adjuvant induced arthritis. LD50 of SKI306X was more than 5 g/kg in rat, so generally nontoxic. Chemical analysis revealed that oleanolic acid and rutin, which are known to have various antiinflammatory activities, were contained in it. These results suggest SK1306-X may become a useful drug for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.

The studies on the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities were carried out to develop the domestic natural sources of the underground parts of Caragana koreana Nakai (Leguminosae), which have been used for the treatment of neuralgia, arthritis, and gout etc. in folk remedies. The methanol extract of the root was shown significant antiinflammatory effect in the paw edema induced by carrageenin, and also indicated remarkable preventive and therapeutic effects to chronic arthritis model induced by Freund's complete adjuvant in rats. It also has inhibited significantly the increase in vascular permeability and the number of writhings induced by acetic acid in mice.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the anti-rheumatoidal arthritis effect of the R. verniciflua heartwood extract, its EtOAc fraction, and its primary flavonoids, sulfuretin and fustin. All test samples showed variably significant inhibitory effects on hind paw edema and trypsin inhibitor activity induced by Freund's complete adjuvant reagent (FCA reagent), and on vascular permeability caused by acetic acid. Treatment with 10 mg/kg (i.p.) sulfuretin for seven days inhibited edema formation by 54.2$\pm$3.0%. Test samples, especially sulfuretin, shifted the values of biochemical parameters such as serum-cholesterol, serum-triglyceride and serum-total protein toward the normal and restored the numbers of leucocytes and platelets. These results suggest that the heartwood of R. verniciflua reduces immunological injuries caused by FCA reagent provides evidence that suluretin is an active anti-rheumatoid arthritis agent.

MeOH extract of Kochia scoparia was fractionated into $CHCl_3-$, EtOAc- and BuOH extracts and the last fraction were hydrolyzed by 3%-NaOH ($MeOH-H_2O$) to compare the bioactivities on antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects. Silica gel column chromatography of BuOH fraction afforded a large amount of $3-Ο-{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl {\;}(1{\rightarrow}3)-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranosyl$ oleanolic acid (momordin Ic, 4) and that of acid hydrolysate of BuOH fraction gave $3-Ο-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranosyl oleanolic$ acid (momordin Ib, 3), its 6'-Ο-methyl ester (2) and oleanolic acid (1). Silica gel column chromatography of alkaline hydrolysate afforded a large amount of 4. MeOH extract and both EtOAc- and BuOH fractions were active in the rheumatoidal rat induced Freund's complete adjuvant reagent (FCA) whereas $CHCl_3$ fraction was inactive. Compound 1 and 4 showed significant activities in the same assay but oleanolic acid 3-Ο-glucuronopyranoside (3) showed no activity. These fashions were also observed in carrageenan-induced edema of the rat and in the antinociceptive activity tests undertaken in hot plate- and writhing methods. These results suggest that momordin Ic and its aglycone, oleanolic acid, could be active principles for rheumatoid arthritis.

The methanolic extract of Lysimachiae christinae Herba, which has been used for diuretic, calculi remover and jaundice remedy in oriental countries, was found to possess analgesic and antiinflammatory effect in Freund's complete adjuvant treated rat. From ethyl acetate fraction of the herb a phenyl propanoid isoferulic acid was isolated as an active principle.

Joins (SKI 306X) is now clinically used for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). In previous reports, Joins a natural herbal product extracted from three herbs Clematis Radix. Trichosanthes Radix and Prunella Flos, was shown to have good analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects in several in vivo models. e.g., acetic acid-induced pain, carrageenan-induced paw edema and adjuvant-induced arthritis.

'Ssangwha-Tang,' which have known as a tonic and restorative preparation in Korean traditional medicines, was shown to have signification antiinflammatory activity in the edema-induced carrageenin inflammation of rats, and also indicated remarkable preventive effect to chronic arthritis model in rat induced by Freund's complete adjuvant method.

Daidzein and its methyl derivatives were synthesized and their anti-inflammatory activities were examined. Daidzein suppressed the carrageenin-induced edema, but its methyl derivatives showed decrease or abolition of the anti-inflammatory effect. Daidzein did not significantly suppress the complete Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis, and the mixed phlogistics (histamine+serotonin)-induced edema. Daidzein inhibited the leukocyte emigration and protein exudation when it was administered into the CMC pouch at low doses (5,25mg/pouch). Daidzein significantly suppressed the cotton-pellet granuloma formation.

The pharmacological activities and pharmacokinetic aspects of a topical microemulsion (KDPM) containing 0.5% piroxicam were evaluated after its topical application compared with a commercially available 0.5% piroxicam gel (R gel). When the pharmacological activities were evaluated with the carrageenan-induced paw edema model, KDPM showed 55.6% edema inhibition, while R gel resulted in 37.1%. With the adjuvant-induced arthritis model, KDFM also resulted in the better pharmacological activities than R gel. The relative bioavailability of KDPM based on R gel was 176% in rabbits.

배경 및 목적 : 봉독약침요법(bee venom pharmacopuncture, BVP)은 rheumatoid arthritis(RA)의 치료에 활용되고 있으나, RA로 인한 염증성 통증에 대한 봉독약침의 진통효과와 specific mechanism은 아직까지 명확하게 밝혀지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 RA animal model로서 collagen-induced arthritis(CIA) rat model에서 봉독약침의 a1-adrenergic, 5HT-3 그리고 muscarinic cholinergic mechanism을 확인하고자 한다. 방법 : CIA를 유도하기 위하여 male Sprague-Dawley rat에 freund's incomplete adjuvant에 유화(乳化)시킨 bovine type II collagen을 주입하고 14일 후 booster injection 시행하였다. 진통효과는 tail flick latency (TFL)로 평가하였다. 결과 : 관절염의 유도 이후 염증성 통증 역치는 시간이 지나면서 낮아지며, 5주 이후로는 통증 역치에 큰 변화가 없이 유지되었다. 첫 번째 immunization으로부터 5주 경과 후 족삼리($ST_{36}$)에 봉독약침처치(0.25 mg/ kg)를 시행하여 유의한 진통효과를 관찰하였다. 또한 봉독약침의 진통효과는 ondansetron(5HT-3 receptor antagonist, 0.5mg/kg, i.p.), atropine(muscarinic cholinergic receptor antagonist, 1mg/kg, i.p.)의 전처치에 의하여 억제되었으나, prazosin(a1-adrenergic receptor antagonist, 1mg/kg, i.p.)의 전처치에 의해서는 억제되지 않았다. 결론 : 봉독약침은 CIA로 인한 염증성 통증에 유의한 진통효과를 나타내며 그 analgesic mechanism은 5HT-3와 muscarinic cholinergic receptor에 의하여 매개되며 a1-adrenergic receptor에 의하여 매개되지는 않았다.
