Carcinous pain is severe and continuous so difficult to alleviate. Western drugs give rise to reaction such as anorexia, constipation, vomiting, general weakness and dyspnea, And they cause tolerence. External treatment is a way to put a patch or rub a liquid on the skin. The patch and liquid are made from herb medicine. In china, they have a good effect of alleviating carcinous pain to make use of external treatment. Usually they use the medicine with effect of reprecussion (消腫), removing obstruction(散結), activating blood flow and removing blood stasis (活血化瘀) such like Borneloum(?片). Bufonis Venenum (蟾?), Aconiti ciliane Tubber(草烏), Arisaematis Rhizoma(南星), Asari herba cum Radice (細辛) etc. We can get the alleviating effect more quickly and prevent reaction through external treatment.

Objectives: Toad venom, called Chan-Su, is a traditional Oriental medicine secreted from the auricular and the skin glands of the Bufo bufo gargarizanz Cantor or B. melanosticus Schneider and has been widely used in China, Korea and other parts of Asia for the treatment of pain, heart conditions, and cancer. We examined the concentrations of the main chemical constituents within a commercially available toad venom product and compared the levels for different extraction methods. Methods: Toad venom was extracted using either cold or hot water, ethanol (EtOH), methanol (MeOH), or ethyl acetate (EtOAc), was fractionated using precipitation or reflux, and was then analyzed using thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HTLC), and liquid chroma-tography - mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Individual components were identified by comparisons of the retention times, the ultraviolet spectra, and mass spectras and differences in chemical constituents for different solvents and extraction methods are presented. Results: Components with authentic standards, including serotonin and bufodienolides (cinobufagen, bufalin, cinobufalin, and resibufogenin), were detected. The water extract of toad venom contained the greatest amount of serotonin ($75.7{\pm}0.1$ mg/g), but very small amounts of bufodienolides ($3.8{\pm}0.0$ mg/g). In contrast, the use of MeOH or EtOH extraction solutions resulted in 5-26 times higher concentrations of bufodienolides, with only trace amounts of serotonin. The relative and the absolute concentrations of the component also varied based on the extraction method; i.e., EtOH extracts yielded the greatest total amounts of bufodienolides, and EtOAc precipitation had the lowest amounts of bufodienolides. Conclusions: Toad venom consists of serotonin and several bufodienolides, and the choice of solvent to extract chemical the constituents is important as a way to enrich the purported active components for treating different conditions.

본 논문은 오랫동안 민간요법으로 염증치료에 사용되어오던 섬수가 lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-자극된 BV2 소교 세포의 nitric oxide(NO) 분비에 미치는 효과에 대해 연구한 내용이다. 실험 결과 섬수는 세포 생존력에 대한 영향 없이 BV2 소교 세포에서 NO 분비를 억제시켰고, nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) 단백질도 감소시켰다. 또한 섬수는 prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) 생산 및 cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 발현을 저지하였고, proinflammatory cytokines과 ${IkB-\alpha}$감소를 억제시켰다. 따라서 섬수가 $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$감소를 억제함으로써 NO 합성을 저해하여 항염증작용을 할 수 있다는 내용이다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report a case of lipoma removed by surgical method. Methods : A 69-year-old female was diagnosed with lipoma on the left upper shoulder. Bufonis venenum pharmacopuncture was used for local anesthesia. The 11th blade and the CO₂ laser was used for incision. After removal of lipoma, irrigation with soyeom pharmacopuncture solution and simple interrupted suture were carried out. For 7 days, Yeonkyopaedok-san was given and the suture was removed after 14 days. At last, saengkigo was applied. Results : Local anesthesia was maintained. Lipoma sized 3.0×1.0×1.0cm was clearly removed. Adverse effects were not reported until the clear skin adhesion. Conclusions : Lipoma were surgically removed without any complications by using pharmacopuncture and oral herbal medicines that have anti-inflammatory effects. Korean medicine has the potential for surgery and needs to extend the range of surgical treatment.

한약진흥재단(NIKOM)의 640-천연물 라이브러리를 PC12세포에 10 μg/ml/day로 처리하였다. 면역강화에 관여하는 ERAP1 (Endoplasmic Reticulum AminoPeptidase 1)과 수명연장에 관여하는 FOXO1 (FOXO-family transcription factor) 유전자발현을 RT-PCR로 확인하였다. ERAP1 유전자를 1.5-2배까지 상승시킨 것은 22개, 2배 이상 발현시킨 것은 14개였다. FOXO1 유전자를 1.5-2배까지 상승시킨 것은 총 24개, 2배 이상 발현시킨 것은 4개였다. 동시에 ERAP1과 FOXO1 유전자를 2배 이상 상승시키는 것은 족도리풀(Asiasari radix)에서 분리된 (±)-Car-3-ene-2,5-dione, 두꺼비(Bufonis venenum)에서 분리된 Cinobufagin, 대국(Euphorbiae pekinensis)에서 분리된 Corilagin, 현호색(Corydalis tuber)에서 분리된 Corydaline 4종이다. 이들 4종의 천연물은 초파리를 이용한 개체의 수명연장실험에 사용될 것이다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report case of hypergranulation tissue that occurred after laparotomy and dissected by CO₂ laser. Methods : A 72-year-old female had hypergranulation tissue on the epigastrium. Local anesthesia was achieved with bufonis venenum pharmacopuncture. The CO₂ laser was used for dissection. After removal of granulation, irrigation with soyeom pharmacopuncture solution and simple interrupted suture were performed. Yeonkyopaedok-san were administered for 7 days and the suture was removed after 14 days. At last, saengkigo was applied. Results : Hypergranulation tissue sized 1.0×1.0×1.0cm was clearly removed. Including excessive growing of granulation tissue, adverse effects were not reported until the clear skin adhesion. Conclusions : Hypergranulation tissue was surgically removed and sutured completely without any complications by using pharmacopuncture, oral herbal medicine and ointment that have anti-inflammatory effects and wound healing. Through this study, it is hoped that surgery including suture will be actively performed in more diverse diseases in the Korean medicine community.
