Purpose : This investigation was undertaken to evaluate the anti-proliferation, in hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water fraction from extract of Gyulyupsanbyonbang(GYSB) using MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Methods : GYSB was added to distilled water(1500ml) and was boiled then filtered. The residue was suspended in distilled water and extracted with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. MCF-7 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 complex badge, NIH3T3 was cultered in 37$^{\circ}$C, 5% moisture incubator of carbon dioxide with Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium(DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. Cell cytotoxicity test about cancer cell was measured used MTT assay. Results: When it synthesizes a result, hexane and butanol fraction had shown anti-proliferation effect and safety together, and those anti-proliferation effect operating selectively appeared. Ethyl acetate fraction had anti-proliferation effect however, it was not selective. The Chloroform and water soluble fraction did not almost appear anti-proliferation effect. Conclusion : I can conclude that GYSB have anti-proliferation effect and safety together on MCF-7 cells. It suggest that GYSB may be useful for brest cancer patients.
