The purpose of this study was performed to evaluate antioxidant activity of the Artemisia asiatica Nakai and Moringa oleifera Lam mixture extract. Mixture extracts were manufactured by concentration and compared with a single extract (only the Artemisia asiatica Nakai mixture and only the Moringa oleifera Lam mixture). The experiments conducted Total polyphenol measurements, Total flavonoid measurements, DPPH radical scavenging activty, ABTS radical scavenging activty and LDH assay. The LDH assay assessment shows that all extracts are cells compared to controls. The toxicity was weak. Finally, The antioxidant capacity was rated higher than mixture extract of a single extract. Also, the optimized mixture was determined AM5 (Artemisia asiatica Nakai mixture: Moringa oleifera Lam mixture = 3:1). For extracts of AM5, Total phenol and flavonoid contents were 271.769±18.087 mg/g and 45.384±5.026 mg/g. and DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity were 70.8±6.496% and 77.1±9.634%. Therefore, it is expected that the value of the extract will increase as it increases its antioxidant activity if it is manufactured according to the appropriate ratio.

Ethanol ($70\%$) extract of Caesalpinia sappan L. and Forsythiae suspensa Vahl. showed $84\%$ and $72\%$ of anti-urease activity against Helicobacter pylori, respectively. Among the fraction of Artemisia asiatica Nakai extract using methanol ($80\%$), water, ethyl acetate and butanol ethyl acetate fraction showed $90\%$ of the anti-urease activity.

It has long teen known in herbal medicine that the mugwort not only exerts a strong hemostatic and parasiticidal actions but also has therapeutic effects for stomachache and diarrhea. In recent pharmaceutical botany the mugwort is known to have antipyretic and astringent actions also. Among the major principles which have been found in the leaves and stems of mugwort are inulin, alkaloids, vitamines, and esestial oil. It is well known that santonin, one of the well known parasiticides, is one of the glucosides extracted from the limited species of mugwort. The present study was undertaken to investigate effects of mugwort(Artemisia asiatica Nakai) on the motility of isolated rabbit duodenum. The results obtained are as follows: At does of 0.2%, 0.5% and 1. 0% AAJ(Artemisia asiatica juice) markedly enhanced contractility of isolated duodenum and tonus of the intestine was also augmented with doses of 0.5% and 1.0%. The augmentative effect of AAJ on intestinal motility was not affected by pretreatment with epinephrine and avil while it was completely abolished by atropine. Therefore it is strongly suggested that augmentative action of AAJ on duodenal motility was exerted solely through muscarinic cholinergic receptors.

Extracts of Artemisia asiatica Nakai (Asteraceae) have been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-tri-methoxy-flavone), one of the pharmacologically active ingredients derived from Artemisia asiatica, has been shown to induce apoptosis in promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells.

Extracts of Artemisia asiatica Nakai (Asteraceae) possess anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-tri-methoxy-flavone), one of the pharmacologically active ingredients derived from Artemisia asiatica, was shown to induce apoptosis in human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells (H.-J. Seo and Y.-J. Surh, Mutat. Res., 496, 191-198, 2001). In the present study, we examined the cytostatic effects of eupatilin in H-ras-transformed human breast epithelial (MCF10A-ras) cells. (omitted)

The wormwood is one of the plants which occur widely throughout the world. Though the precise data on the entire chemical composition of mugwort leaves are not available, the major principles which have been found so far include inulin, alkaloid, thujon, sesquiterpene and several vitamins. Santonin, a parasiticide, is one of the glucosides extracted from the limited species of wormwood. It has long been known in herb medicine that the plants of this family has not only strong hemostatic, analgesic and parasiticidal actions but also therapeutic effects for diarrhea, stomachache and asthma. In recent pharmaceutical botany the wormwood is introduced to have antipyretic and astringent actions also. The mugwort(Artemisia asiatica Nakai) is the most common species of wormwood that occurs in Korea. The usage of this edible leaves of mugwort is rather various. It is used not only for wormwood bath but also as forage, moxa and medicinal agents. Recently Kim et al reported from their study on the effect of mugwort on the motility of isolated intestine of rabbits that tonus and motility were markedly enhanced by mugwort but this effect of mugwort on intestinal motility was almost completely blocked by atropine suggesting that activity of mugwort was exerted through its cholinergic effect. It was the findings of Kim et al that prompted the authors to do the present experiment. The present study was undertaken to investigate effects of mugwort(Artemisia asiatica Nakai) juice on the respiration and blood pressure in cats. And also studied was the mechanism of depressor action of Artemisia asiatica Nakai Juice (AAJ). The results obtained are as follows; 1) It was observed that mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate were decreased markedly by AAJ. Following administration of 0.15 ml/kg and 0.3 ml/kg AAJ into cats the maximum depressor responses observed were $77.5{\pm}2.2\;mmHg$ and $94.0{\pm}3.7\;mmHg$ respectively. 2) Depressor responses to AAJ were blocked markedly by atropine whereas the responses were not affected by propranolol and dibenamine. Therefore it is strongly inferred that depressor action of AAJ results mainly from its cholinergic effect. This inference was further substantiated by the fact that heart rate change which invariably accompanies depressor responses to AAJ was almost completely abolished by atropinization. 3) After administration of AAJ into cats frequency of respiration was markedly increased while depth of respiration decreased during first 2-3 seconds.

In this study, liquid with carbonized artemisia was developed for the first time that can be used as food additives and outside medicinal agents by burning artemisia species such as Artemisia dubia wall, Artemisia capillaris Thunb, Artemisia montana (Nakai) Pamp), Artemisia keiskeana Miq, Leonurus Japonicus Houtt. etc. In addition, edibility of recovered liquid with carbonized artemisia was verified by comparing the contents according to each ingredient with common refined pyroligneous liquid through the analysis of 9 kinds of organic acid by the species of artemisia, methanol and ethanol. Besides, the result of antimicrobial activities on six kinds of food spoilage and food poisoning bacteria observed by paper disc method for liquid with carbonized artemisia indicated that those two liquids showed strong antimicrobial. At the concentration of 1.5 mg/disc, clear zone for S. sonnei and S. aureus, L. monocytogenes was 13~16 mm, and they showed stronger antimicrobial activities than other strain.

애엽으로 약침액을 조제하여 암예방 효과를 살펴 본 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 애엽 약침액으로 10일간 전투여한 후 Ehrlich ascites tumor cell을 이식하여 복수암이 유발된 생쥐의 EATC 성장을 살펴 본 결과 약침액을 투여한 생쥐의 EATC의 성장이 크게 억제되었으며, 복수암이 유발된 생쥐의 비장 무게가 대조군에 비해 증가하였다. 또한 장기간의 관찰에 의해서도 복수암 세포의 성장 저해에 의해 생쥐의 체중변화율은 대조군에 비해 크게 억제되었으며 수명 연장 효과가 나타났다. 이와같은 생체에서의 암예방 효과를 in vitro 상에서 그 기전을 살펴본 결과 애엽 약침액은 phase II detoxification 효소인 QR의 생성을 유도하고 GSH 함량을 증가시켜서 암예방 효과를 나타내었다.

본 연구의 목적은 항산화 식품으로 알려진 애엽과 모링가를 적절한 비율로 혼합하여 제조한 추출물의 방사선방호제 개발 가능성을 검토하였다. 애엽-모링가 혼합 추출물을 암컷 SD Rat 2주간 경구 투여 후 7 Gy 방사선을 조사하여 1일 7일, 21일 후에 혈구 성분의 변화, SOD활성 및 자궁의 조직 변화를 관찰하였다.AM + IR Group이 IR Group에 비하여 백혈구(p<0.05) 및 혈소판(p<0.05) 수치 회복 경향이 더 높은 것으로 확인하였다. 또한 SOD 활성을 증가시켰으며 자궁 조직에서는 세포사가 감소한 것을 확인 하였다.이 결과를 토대로 A와 B의 혼합추출물은 방사선 피폭으로 인한 혈구 및 자궁피해를 감소시킬 수 있는 방사선 방호제로서 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
