Major symptoms of al1ergic rhinitis are nasal obstruction, sneezing and watery rhinorrhea. Onpyetang has been used to treat for nasal obstruction, which is one of the symptoms of allergic rhinitis. This Experimental study was done to research effects of Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang(Allii Radix is deducted from Onpyetang) on the anti-allergic effects. We have studied the vascular permeability response induced by serotonin and histamine, the contact dermatitis response induced by picryl chloride, the delayed type hypersensitivity response to SRC, the mice paw edema induced by carrageenin, the writhing syndrome induced by $0.7\%$ acetic acid, and the rectal temperature in febrile rats induced by yeast. The results were as follows : 1. In the vascular permeability response to intradermal serotonin and histamine. Onpyetang proved significant inhibitory effect(P<0.05, p<0.001) But transformed Onpyetang proved significant inhibitory effect only to histamine(P<0.05) 2. In the contact dermatitis response induced by picryl chloride, Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang proved significant inhibitory effect.(P<0.05, P<0.05) 3. In the delayed type hypersensitivity response induced by SRC, Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang proved significant inhibitory effect on mice paw edema.. (P<0.05, P<0.05) 4. In the delayed type hypersensitivity response induced by SRC, Onpyetang proved significant inhibitory effect to serum IgE.(P<0.01) But transformed Onpyetang proved insignificant inhibitory effect on serum Ig E. 5. In the mice paw edema induced by carrageenin, Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang proved significant anti-inflammatory effect. (P<0.01, P<0.01) 6. In the writhing syndrome induced $0.7\%$ acetic acid, Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang proved significant analgestic effect. (P<0.01, P<0.01) 7. In the rectal temperature in febrile rats induced by yeast, Onpyetang and transformed Onpyetang proved significant anti-pyretic effect.(P<0.001, P<0.01) according to this result Onpyetang was conclude to be effective on anti-allergic, anti-pyretic, anti-inflammatory and analgestic action. but transformed Onpyetang(Allii Radix is deducted from Onpyetang) was not effective on the vascular permeability response to intradermal serotonin and increasing Ig E of delayed type hypersensitivity response induced by SRC. In addition, transformed Onpyetang is not effective as Onpyetang. More study should be done about the role of Allii Radix.

특정 외부항원에 노출됨으로써 생기는 피부에서의 지연형 면역과민반응을 형태학적으로 조사하기위해서 시행된 본 실험은 DNCB에 의해 인위적인 알러지성 접촉피부염을 유발시킨 후 시간의 경과에 따른 피부의 일반적인 형태, 비만세포의 변화, IL-2 receptor의 변화를 관찰하였다. DNCB 2차감작 후 실시된 contact hypersensitivity assay 결과 대조군에 비해 DNCB 처리군에서는 ear swelling이 점점 증가하여 48시간에 가장 높게 측정 되었다. 피부 조직의 일반적인 형태변화도 DNCB접종 후 48시간에서 가장 심한 피부손상의 양상을 보였는데, 진피에서 림프구 aggregation의 증가, 혈관직경의 증가, 표피로의 림프구 infiltration 증가가 일어났다. Semithin section을 통해 관찰된 DNCB처리군의 미세구조의 변화는 표피세포질내 액포화의 증가와 세포사이공간의 확장이었다. 진피에서 비만세포 수가 증가되었으며, 그 형태는 분비과립을 함유하고 있는 degranulated type으로 나타났다. 피부 진피에서 IL-2 receptor 양성반응세포수가 증가되었으며, 표피로 infltration된 IL-2 receptor 양성반응세포가 48시간에서 가장 많이 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 DNCB 감작에 의해 세포성면역과민반응이 일어나며, 이후 면역관여세포들의 복합적인 작용에 의해 급격한 염증반응이 일어나게 된다.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of Bopaewon-tang (BT) on allergic reaction. In the present study, we examined the effect of BT on type 1 and type tV allergic reaction. BT (500 mg/kg) did not affect the systemic anaphylaxis induced by compound 48180 and the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis induced by anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP)-IgE and DNP-human serum albumin in vivo. Also, BT did not affect the release of histamine from peritoneal mast cells in rats. In addition, BT did not affect the permeability of evans blue into peritoneal cavity, but inhibited the writhing syndrome induced by acetic acid. BT inhibited the delayed type hypersensitivity induced by SRBC and the contact dermatitis induced by dinitrofluorobenzene. These results indicate that BT may be useful for the prevention and treatment of type IV allergy related disease.

Objectives : This experimental research has been done to study the effects of herbal-acupuncture with Juglandis Semen on the anti-allergic reaction. Methods : ICR mice were injected intraperioneally with compound 48/80 to induce the immediately type hypersensitivity (anaphylaxis). ICR mice were sensitized by PC and SRBC to induce the delayed type hypersensitivity. Sprage-Dawley rats were injected subcutaneously with egg albumin to measure the WBC. ICR mice and Sprage-Dawley rats were injected with Juglandis Semen herbal-acupuncture for the anti-allergic reaction test. Results : 1. In the restraint effect of systemic anaphylactic reaction, the mortality of mice decreased 20% each before 10 minutes and after 5 minutes. 2. In the contact dermatitis induced by PC, both Treat Ⅰand Treat Ⅱ group showed significant(p<0.01, p<0.05) decrease in comparison with the Control group, and also Treat Ⅲ group showed significance(p<0.005). 3. In the delayed type hypersensitivity in mice challenged by SRBC, Treat Ⅰ group showed significant(p<0.05) decrease in comparison with the Control group, and there was significance(p<0.05, p<0.05) in Treat Ⅲ and Treat Ⅳ group. 4. The change of the WBC in allergic rats induced by egg albumin showed significant(p<0.01, p<0.05, p<0.05) decrease in Treat Ⅰ, Treat Ⅱ and Treat Ⅲ group. Conclusions : The restraint effects of Juglandis Semen herbal-acupuncture on the anti-allergic reaction showed significance statistically.

Vitamin E, which has its advocates in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. autoimmune disease, cancer and peripheral vascular and thromboembolic disease, has now been alleged to have a powerful antioxident effect and to affect various biological activities such as fertility factor, inhibition of human platelet aggregation and stabilization of biological membranes. The present study was designed to test whether vitamin I(alpha-tocopherol) can : (1) enhance the hemagglutinin response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC), (2) modulate Arthus and delayed type hypersensitivity(DTH) to SRBC and contact hypersensitivity to dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB). (3) enhance the mitogenic response of murine splenocyte, (4) decrease the recovery of Cryptococcus neoformans from brain, lung, liver, spleen and kidney of infected mice and (5) have an inhibitory or enhancing effect on the induction of active systemic anaphylaxis(ASA) induced by chicken-gamma globulin (CGG) in mice. Mice were given either intramuscular injections of 0.3ml (300mg) of vitamin I before immunization or were infection for 10 consecutive days or were given by vitamin I esophageal intubation, 0.1ml(100mg), for 20 days before sacrifice for the mitogenic response experiments. It was found that vitamin E treated mice showed a significant enhancement in hemagglutinin response, Arthus reaction and DTH to SRBC and contact hypersensitivity to DNFB. There was no significant difference in the mitogenic response to phytohemagglutinin(PHA), but the response to concanavalin A(ConA) or pokeweed mitogem(PWM) was increased in vitamin E-treated mice. Interestingly, the vitamin E administration before C. neoformans infection decreased significantly the recovery of C. neoformans from brain lung, liver, spleen and kidney of the infected mice as compared with that of the control mice, strongly suggesting that vitamin E pretreatment may increase the resistance of mice to the fungal infection. Unexpectedly, vitamin E administration enhanced the production of CGG -induced ASA. Taken together, it can be concluded that vitamin I administration may in-crease the humoral and cellular immune response and resistance. to C. neoformans infection, but enhance the induction of ASA to CGG. Further studies are necessary to clarify the underlying mechanism accounting for these effects.
