  • The solvent extracts from Aloe arborescens and Aloe vera were randomly screened for inhibitory effects on the growth of tumor cell lines. In case of Aloe vera extracts, butyl alcohol extract and ethyl alcohol extract showed antitumor activity at $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ on lung cell lines(A427, Sk-mes-1, Calu-3 and 3LL). In Aloe arborescens extracts, butyl alcohol extract and ethyl alcohol extract exerted high activity at $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ on breast cell line(Hs-578T) and lung cell line(Sk-mes-1), respectively. The solvent extracts from Aloe vera exerted antitumor activity broadly on various tumor cell lines. In contract, the solvent extracts from Aloe arborescens exerted specific antitumoricity on a few tumor cell lines.

  • With extracted Aloe vera and Aloe arborescens, anti-inflammatory effect was examined in phosphatidic acid-stimulated Raw 264.7 cells. Phosphatidic acid $(50\;{\mu}g/ml)$ treatment increased inflammation related 264.7 cells. The extracts of $80\;{\mu}g/ml$ concentration from Aloe arborescens reduced the expression of iNOS. Aloe vera and Aloe arborescens also reduced the expression of COX-2, it seems that anti-inflammatory effects of Aloe extracts is partly due to the inhibition of COX-2 expression by inhibiting in Raw 264.7 cells.

  • Anticancer effects of Aloe on sarcoma 180 in ICR mouse or human cancer cells were determined. Sarcoma 180 cells were inoculated subcutaneously into male ICR mouse to determine effect of Aloe on tumor gowth, or inoculated intraperitoneally into male ICR mouse to determine effect of Aloe on life span prolongation, followed by oral administration of Aloe vera(10 mg/kg/day, 50 mg/kg/day) or Aloe arborescens(10 mg/kg/day, 100 mg/kg/day) once a day for 14 days. The administration of Aloe vera or Aloe arborescens did not suppress tumor growh. However the life span of ICR mouse was prolonged to 19%(p<0.05), 22%(p<0.05) and 32%(p<0.05) by administration of Aloe vera 10 mg/kg/day, Aloe vera 50 mg/kg/day, and Aloe arborescens 100 mg/kg/day, respectively. To determine anticancer effect of Aloe in vitro, Aloe extract was added to the culture of human gastric cancer cells(SNU-1) and colorectal cancer cells(SNU-C2A), and concentration of Aloe to inhibit cancer cell growth was determined using MTT(3-[ 4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) cytotoxicity assay. High $ID_{50}$ values of Aloe vera and Aloe arborescens against gastric cancer cell line(SNU-1) and colorectal cancer cell line(SNU-C2A) suggest that Aloe gel does not have anticancer effect on these specific human cancer cells although high concentration of Aloe inhibited growth of human cancer cells significantly.

  • This experiment was carrid out to investigate whether Aloe arborescens had a radioprotective effect in cobalt-60 gamma irradiated(600 and 700ra4s) mice. The survival ratio of mice for 30 days and blood pictures were investigated. 1. The survival ratios of 600ra4s gamma Irradiated(dose rate 50rads/min.) in pre-irradiation aloe administered group(A), post-irradiation aloe administered group(B) and control group were 73.3%, 72.3% and 63.3%, and those of 700ra4s groups were 63.3%, 60.0% and 51.7%, respectively. 2. The total leucocyte counts of aloe administered groups were less decreased and more rapidly recovery to normal level than those of control group. 3. The lymphocyte counts were rapidly decreased on the 1st day after irradiation in all experimental groups than those of control group. 4. The recovery effects of total leucocyte counts of pre-irradiation aloe administered groups were superior to those of post-irradiation aloe groups and control group.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of polyamines, salt strength. sucrose and gelling agents on the regeneration of plantlets by meristem culture of Aloe arborescens Mill. and Aloe vera L.. Shoot multiplication was more effective when 10mg/ l spermine in Aloe arborescens and 1mg/ l spermidine in Aloe vera added into MS medium than when other polyamines were treated into media. A quarter strength of MS medium was effective for rooting of shoots regenerated. Higher concentration of sucrose (45g/ l) was more effective for shoot regeneration. Addition of 4g/ l gelrite into the medium was effective for induction of multiple shoots from Aloe than that of agar or other concentrations of gelrite. When plantlets regenerated from meristem culture were transferred to pot. survival rate of plantlets was 80% on perlite and was 95% on vermiculite. respectively.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the optimum medium and concentrations of growth regulators for induction of multiple shoot by meristem culture of floe otorefcenf Mill. MS medium supple-mented with 3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ TDZ was effective for induction of multiple shoot. Shoot multiplication was more ef-fective when 2mg/1 BA combined with 0.Img/1 IAA than when only BA were treated on medium. Halfstrength of MS medium supplemented with 2mg/L IAA was effective for rooting of shoots regenerated.When plantlets regenerated from meristem culture were transferred to pot, survival rate of plantletswas 80% on perlite and was 95% on vermiculite, respectively.

  • This study confirmed the change in functional composition and alcohol-induced acute liver injury in Aloe arborescens after fermentation. An acute liver injury was induced by administration of ethanol (3 g/kg/day) to C57BL/6J mice for 5 days. A fermented A. arborescens Miller leaf (FAAL) extract was orally administered 30 minutes before ethanol treatment. After fermentation, the emodin content was approximately 13 times higher than that of the raw material. FAAL extract significantly attenuated ethanol-induced aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and triglyceride increases in serum and liver tissue. Histological analysis revealed that FAAL extract inhibits inflammatory cell infiltration and fat accumulation in liver tissues. The cytochrome P450 2E1, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione (GSH), which involved in alcohol-induced oxidative stress, were effectively regulated by FAAL extract in serum and liver tissues, except for GSH. FAAL also maintained the antioxidant defense system by upregulating heme oxygenase 1 and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 protein expression. In addition, FAAL extract inhibited the decrease in alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase activity, which promoted alcohol metabolism and prevented the activation of inflammatory response. Our results suggest that FAAL could be used as a potential therapeutic agent for ethanol-induced acute liver injury.
