Angelica decursiva Fr. et Sav. (Umbelliferae) has traditionally been used to treat different diseases due to its antitussive, analgesic, and antipyretic activities. It is also a remedy for thick phlegm, asthma, and upper respiratory infections. Recently, the leaf of A. decursiva has been consumed as salad without showing any toxicity. This plant is a rich in different types of coumarin derivatives, including dihydroxanthyletin, psoralen, dihydropsoralen, hydroxycoumarin, and dihydropyran. Its crude extracts and pure constituents possess anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-Alzheimer disease, anti-hypertension, anti-cancer, antioxidant, anthelmintic, preventing cerebral stroke, and neuroprotective activities. This valuable herb needs to be further studied and developed not only to treat these human diseases, but also to improve human health. This review provides an overview of current knowledge of A. decursiva metabolites and their biological activities to prioritize future studies.

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.

Background: The discomfort caused by chronic cough, that is persistent for more than 3 weeks, causes a number of patients to seek medical attention. However, the underlying disorder often remains undetermined despite thorough examinations, and is considered to be idiopathic. This study compared the efficacy of inhaled corticosteroid with conventional cough suppressants on chronic idiopathic cough. Methods: Eligible patients with chronic idiopathic cough were randomly assigned to either the inhaled fluticasone group or the codeine plus levodropropizine oral administration group. The subjects in each group took their planned medication for 2 weeks. After the trial, comparative analyses of outcomes were performed in terms of the remnant cough (%) at the end of treatment, drug compliance, and adverse drug events. Results: Seventy-seven patients were enrolled in this randomized trial; 38 to the inhaled fluticasone group and 39 to the codeine plus levodropropizine group. The remnant cough was 41.0${\pm}$35.8% in the inhaled fluticasone group, and 32.4${\pm}$32.0% in the codeine+levodropropizine group (p=0.288). Drug compliance was 95.4${\pm}$7.4% and 81.8${\pm}$18.6% in the inhaled fluticasone and the codeine+levodropropizine group, respectively (p<0.001). Nine patients had adverse drug events in the codeine+levodropropizine group compared to one in the inhaled fluticasone group (p<0.001). Conclusion: Short-term inhaled corticosteroid is not inferior to conventional antitussive agents in controlling chronic idiopathic cough without significant adverse events.

In order to evaluate the relationship between the bibliographical and clinical effectiveness of Socheongryoungtang, this study was carried out to investigate the effects of Socheongryoungtang on the respiratory system, cardiovascular system and isolated organ in the experimental animals. The following results of Socheongryoungtang were obtained; 1. The relaxing effect on the muscular contraction of isolated ileum induced by acetylcholine chloride, barium chloride and histamine${\cdot}$2HCl was recognized in mice, rat and guinea-pig. 2. The effect of direct vasodilatation was noted in rabbit. 3. The effect of hypotensor was recognized in rabbit. 4. The antihistamine effect was noted on both isolated ileum and tracheal strip-chain in guinea-pig. 5. The inhibitory effect on gastric ulcer induced by histamine${\cdot}$2HCl was noted in rat. 6. The inhibitory effect on vascular permeability was revealed in mice. 7. The antitussive effect was recognized in both dog and cat. 8. The effect of expectorant was recognized in rabbit. According to the above results, we has recognized that Socheongryoungtang has good efficacy for bibliographical and clinical diseases caused from respiratory system (especially allergic rhinitis etc.), cardiovascular system and digestive system.

For the investigation of resources in Codonopsis species, the studies were carried out to evaluate the pharmaco-constituents from the leaves of Codonopsis lanceolata (Campanulaceae) whose roots have been used to antitussive, expectorant, detoxicate, tonic, edible, etc. as a folk medicine in Korea. From the EtOAc and BuOH fractions of MeOH extract, three flavonoid compounds, $luteolin-7-O-{\beta}-_D-glucopyranoside$$(C_{21}H_{20}O_{1i},\;mp\;254{\sim}255^{\circ}$, compound 1), $luteolin-5-O-{\beta}-_D-glucopyranoside$$(C_{21}H_{20}O_{1i},\;mp\;279{\sim}281^{\circ}$, compound 2) and luteolin $(C_{15}H_{10}O_6,\;mp\;327{\sim}330^{\circ}$, compound 3) were isolated and identified on the basis of their physicochemical properties and spectroscopic evidences(UV, IR, $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$, MS etc.) in comparison with authentics respectively.

Objectives: Amygdalin is known to be a natural compound which has antitussive and anticancer activities. Amygdalin is abundant in the seeds of bitter almond and apricots of the Prunus genus, and other rosaceous plants. We investigated whether amygdalin induces apoptosis. Materials and Methods : 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT)assay, terminal deoxynuclotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay, 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAFI) staining, flow cytometric analysis, DNA fragmentation assay, western blot, and caspase-3 enzyme assay were performed on ME-180 cervical cancer cells treated with amygdalin. Results: Through morphological and biochemical analyses, it was demonstrated that ME-180 cells treated with amygdalin exhibit several apoptotic features. It was shown that amygdalin induces increases in levels of Bax and caspase-3 and a decrease in Bcl-2 expression. Conclusions: These results suggest the possibility that amygdalin exerts an anti-tumor effect on human cervical cancer.

The root of Pseudostellaria heterophylla Pax et Hoffm. (Caryophyllaceae) is a herbal medicine called Taejasam(太子蔘) and used as a good tonic in China that strengthens the functions of the lung and the stomach like Ginseng in Korea. It has been known to have the antitussive activity for tuberculosis, appetizing effect and antifatigue activity, and so on. Especially it has been known to generate body fluids for the severe thirst and the shortage of water in body after a febrile disease for a long time. Recently some components of cyclic peptides, pseudostellarins A,B,C,D,E,F,G, that inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, were separated from this root. In this report several biological activities including acute toxicity, analgesic activity, antifatigue activity, bile juice increasing activity, hepatoprotective activity and antiinflammatory activity were investigated. These results showed as such; $LD_{50}$ of methanol extracts was above 10,000 mg/kg. The analgesic effect was revealed in the writhing test using rats. The BuOH fractions showed a prominent antifatigue effect against immobilized stress, significant hepatoprotective activities against $CCl_4$ intoxication and inhibitory effect on carrageenin-induced edema in rat's paw.

The abuse of zipeprol, an antitussive agent, is prevalent among young people. Ten fatal cases of zipeprol concentration in blood after its abuse had caused death are disscussed. GC equipped with TSD was used to quantify the drug in postmortem blood and GC/MS to identify the metabolites in urine after preliminary test. The calibration curve of zipeprol was linear (r = 0.998) and the recoveries of zipeprol 5, 10 and $20\;{\mu}g$ added to 1 ml postmortem blood were $97.2{\pm}3.9$, $92.5{\pm}3.9$ and $86.9{\pm}4.6%$ respectively. The blood zipeprol concentration varied 2.9 to $24.69\;{\mu}g/ml$ in 10 fatal cases. All the deaths were young adults with the age of 16-21. Three metabolites were identified in drug abuser's urine, 2-methoxy-2-phenyl ethylpiperazine, 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-3-phenyl propylpiperazine and a demethylated zipeprol.
