Objectives: To investigate therapeutic mechanisms of Gyejibokryeong-hwan (GJBRH) against gynaecological diseases, articles on biological assay were gathered and analyzed. Methods: The articles were classified as being from domestic or international journals, and by their year of publication. The mechanisms of the biological effects against gynaecological diseases were noted. Results: Of the 14 articles analyzed, 13 were published in China and 1 was from Japan. GJBRH showed therapeutic effect against uterine and mammary gland diseases. Uterine-related diseases such as endometriosis, hysteromyoma, adenomyosis, cancer, and inflammation can be improved by the administration of GJBRH through anti-angiogenesis, anti-inflammation, the modulation of immune cell and immunoglobulin, and the regulation of hormone secretion. GJBRH also reduced mammary hyperplasia by regulating hormone and cytokine release. Conclusions: We speculate that the inhibitory effect against uterine and mammary gland diseases could be related to the therapeutic efficacy of GJBRH in improving gynaecological diseases.

Gyejibokryeong-hwan (GJBRH) has been used for treatment of patients with climacteric syndrome. In this study, an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometer (UPLC-ESI-MS) method was established for the simultaneous quantification of seven marker compounds in GJBRH extract. In addition, we assessed the antioxidant effects of GJBRH. All analytes were separated by gradient elution using two mobile phases on a UPLC BEH $C_{18}$ column and maintained at $45^{\circ}C$. The antioxidant activities of GJBRH were evaluated by measuring free radical scavenging activities on 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and 1-1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The inhibitory effects on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation were evaluated by the formation of thiobarbituric acid relative substances (TBARS) and relative electrophoretic mobility (REM). Regression equations of the seven compounds were acquired with $r^2$ values ${\geq}0.9988$. The amounts of the seven compounds, amygdalin, albiflorin, paeoniflorin, coumarin, cinnamic acid, cinnamaldehyde, and paeonol in GJBRH water extract were 21.71, 2.16, 17.17, 1.97, 0.40, 0.78, and 3.42 mg/g, respectively. The GJBRH showed the radical scavenging activity in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration required for 50% reduction ($RC_{50}$) against ABTS and DPPH radicals were $54.18{\mu}g/mL$ and $79.53{\mu}g/mL$. Furthermore, GJBRH reduced the oxidation properties of LDL induced by $CuSO_4$.

목 적: 이 생체 내 연구의 목적은 인도메타신과 비교했을 때 쥐의 원발성 월경통에 대한 계지 복령환 열수 추출물의 진통 및 개선 효과를 관찰하는 것이다. 방 법: 랫트 PD 모델을 만들기 위해, Estradiol benzoate를 10일간 투여한 다음 마지막 10회 estradiol benzoate 투여 1시간 후 1 U/kg의 oxytocin을 투여하였다. 계지복령환 열수 추출물을 500, 250 및 125 mg/kg 용량으로 매일 1회씩 10일간 투여하였다. 이후 체중 및 실험 기간 동안의 체중 증가량, 자궁 중량 및 육안부검 소견, 진통 활성을 나타내는 abdominal writhing test, 자궁 조직 내 지질 과산화(Malondialdehyde, MDA 함량) 및 항산화 방어 시스템 - glutathione (GSH) 함량, superoxide dismutase (SOD) 및 catalase (CAT) 활성, Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) 및 cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 mRNA의 발현, 자궁의 조직병리학적 변화, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α 및 inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)로 나타나는 면역조직 화학적 변화를 관찰하였다. 계지복령환 열수 추출물의 결과는 인도메타신 투여 쥐의 결과와 비교하였다. 결 과: Estradiol benzoate 및 oxytocin 투여 결과, 현저한 체중 및 증체량, 자궁 GSH 함량, SOD와 CAT 활성의 감소와 abdominal writhing 반응, 자궁 지질 과산화(MDA 함량), 자궁 중량, NF-κB 및 COX-2 mRNA 발현의 증가가 TNF-α 및 iNOS 면역반응세포와 염증세포 침윤 증가, 자궁의 충혈 및 확대와 함께 관찰되었다. 이는 전형적인 염증 및 산화 스트레스성 원발성 월경통이 잘 유도되었음을 의미한다. 한편 이러한 소견은 계지복령환 열수 추출물의 투여에 의해 용량의존적으로 현저히 억제되었으며, 인도메타신의 억제 효과보다는 낮았다. 결 론: 이 연구에서 얻은 결과는 계지복령환 열수 추출물이 estradiol benzoate 및 oxytocin으로 유도된 원발성 월경통에 용량-의존적으로 유리한 진통 및 개선 활성을 가짐을 시사한다.
