The results were summerized as follows : 1. The Total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, Free fatty acid, phospholipid and CRF(Cardiak Risk Factor) by hypercholesteremic rats injected by Triton WR-1339 of the herb-Acupuncture group were decreased as compared with those of the control group, especialy hypercholesteremic rats injected by Triton WR- 1339 of the herb-Acupuncture+Acupuncture group were some more decreased as compared with those of the control group. 2. The HDL-cholesterol by hypercholesteremic rats injected by Trion WR -1339 of the herb-Acupuncture group were increased as compeared those of control group, especialy hypercholesteremic rats injected by Triton WR-1339 of the herb-Acupuncture+Acupuncture group were some more increased as compared with those of the control group.

Microsatellite markers were isolated for Daphne kiusiana var. kiusiana (Thymelaeaceae), an evergreen broad-leaved shrub endemic to Korea and Japan. Because its populations in Jeju Island are morphologically controversial, and consistently threatened by anthropogenic pressures, taxonomic delimitation and conservation effort are required at the genetic level. We developed 21 polymorphic microsatellite loci from Next Generation Sequencing data. The primer set included di-, tri-, and tetra-nucleotide repeats. Variability in the markers was tested for 80 individuals of D. kiusiana from three natural populations in Jeju Island and Japan. Among the 21 loci, three were unavailable for population JKJU of Japan. The Neighbor-Joining tree based on microsatellite markers described here classified the three populations into two groups according to geographical or morphological traits. These will be a powerful genetics tool for determining the taxonomic boundary and establishing suitable conservation strategies for D. kiusiana in Jeju Island.

Objectives: Hepatoma is a very serious disease in Korea and vvorldwiclc. Hepatitis B vims (HBV) has proved the most significant cause of hepatoma. We canied out this study to investigate the effect of Acanthopanax sessilifloms on inhibiting cell proliferation and DNA synthesis in HepG2.2.15 cell line and on inhibiting phosphorilation of oncogene (MAP kinase) in NIT/3T3-HBx ceIl. Methods: To investigate the anti-cancer effect of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus, we did the CellTiter 96 Aqueous Non-radioactive Cell Proliferation assay (Promega); MTS/PMS assay, [$^3H$]-thymicline incorporation assay, and we measured the gene expression through westem blotting. Results: Acanthopanax sessiliflorus showed an inhibiting effect on the increase of HepG2.2.15 in the NTS/PMS assay. It also showed an inhibiting effect on DNA synthesis of HepG2.2.15 in the [$^3H$]-thymidine incorporation assay. Acanthopanax sessiliflorus showed an inhibiting effect of phosphorilation of MAP kinase in HBV - X genes. too. Conclusions: The results suggested that this herb had an anti cancer effect. We may discover an effective anti-cancer herb medicine through further studies on this herb medicine.
