Objectives: Boeum-jeon (BEJ) is a herbal formula composed 8 Korean medicinal herbs and is traditionally used to treat inflammatory diseases. In this study, the authors tried to confirm the antioxidant efficacy of BEJ and its anti-inflammatory effect in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Methods: In this experiment, results of BEJ on the following two were measured as follows: (1) Antioxidant effects was measured by DPPH Radical scavenging Activity, ABTS Radical scavenging Activity. (2) Anti-Inflammatory effects were evaluated by the production amount of ROS, NO, Cytokine (PGE2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α), COX-2, iNOS, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, HO-1, NQO1 (the previous seven are "mRNA Expression"), COX-2, iNOS, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, HO-1, NQO1, NRF2 (the previous eight are "Protein Expression") ERK, JNK, p38 (the previous three are "Protein Phosphorylation") in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Results: The experimental measurement results are as follows: (1) DPPH Radical scavenging Activity, ABTS Radical scavenging Activity increased in a concentration -dependent manner in the BEJ-treated group. (2) As a result of measuring anti-inflammatory efficacy, the production of ROS, NO, and Cytokine (PGE2, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) in the BEJ-administered group was significantly reduced compared to the control group. (3) Among mRNA Expression levels, COX-2, iNOS, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner than in the control group, and HO-1 and NQO1 were significantly increased in a concentration -dependent manner than in the control group. (4) Among the Protein Expression levels, COX-2, iNOS, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was significantly decreased in a concentration -dependent manner compared to the control group, and HO-1, NQO1 and NRF2 was significantly increased in a concentration-dependent manner compared to the control group. (5) As a result of Protein Phosphorylation, ERK, p38 and JNK was significantly decreased compared to the control group in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusions: Boeum-jeon has been experimentally confirmed to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and if the evidence for efficacy is reinforced through further studies such as in vivo studies and clinical trials in the future, it can be effectively used to treat various inflammatory diseases such as bladder inflammation and chronic pelvic inflammation.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to propose appropriate strategic directions and road maps for successful achievement of programs preventing winter disease in the summer. Methods : Details on programs preventing winter disease in the summer such as clear concept, theoretical basis, current status, intervention or available prescriptions and indication/contraindication/caution were prepared through the related journal review, upon which an observational study was devised and done for simulation to find out even a trivial problem and to guarantee the safety beforehand. The experimental group was divided into 5 groups by the size of pill and the way ginger is treated; 1cm pill with ginger group, 3cm pill group without ginger, 3cm pill group dipped into ginger, 3cm pill group applying ginger to acupoints and 3cm pill group with ginger Results 1. program preventing winter disease in the summer was defined as representative winter diseases such as common cold, influenza, chronic asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergic rhinitis, emphysema, chronic gastritis and rheumatoid arthritis, and preventive care in the summer, reinforcing deficient yang qi of five viscera by using exuberant yang qi from summer heat. 2. It was based upon historically established theories which is 'nourishing yang qi in the spring and summer', 'long summer, namely rainy spell in the summer overwhelms the winter, because of earth winning water according to the five phases theory' and 'To replenish yang qi is major principle to treat winter diseases, which can be most appropriately and timely applied to the patient with deficient yang qi of five viscera inherently, especially in the three dog days of the summer, because of exuberant exterior yang qi and deficient interior yang qi in the five viscera'. 3. In the adjacent China and Taiwan, acupoint applying method in the three dog days named 'San Fu Tie' have been stirring a boom throughout the nation, in which Xiaochuan Gao was used as a basic prescription and it mainly was applied at bilateral $BL_{13}$, $_{15}$ and $_{17}$ for about 4 hours. As far as domestic current status, the necessity of adopting the above method prior to Herbal formula was also recognised, because not a few koreans have apprehension for the safety of it including medicinal herbs and are reluctant to take it any more due to negative advertisement of narrow minded doctors' association. 4. Indication of acupoint applying method in the three dog days included most of winter diseases such as common cold, influenza, chronic asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergic rhinitis, emphysema, chronic gastritis. contraindication was pregnant woman and the weak such as infants and the old. More attention was paid to grasp firmly the normal reaction following the treatment for preventing side effect and teasing blister. recommendation was also given to abstain from food inducing phlegm and dampness such as meat, shrimp and crab as well as cold drinks and foods 5. In the simulation observational study based upon the above findings following review the related articles, no blister was shown on the acupoints icluding bilateral $BL_{13}$, $_{15}$ and $_{17}$ in every experimental group during 24hr observation following the acupoint applying treatment with pills made by modified and devised prescription. At 4 hr, the effectiveness of it reached a peak showing redness and mild tenderness and there is little difference between groups 3cm pills groups regardless of the way ginger was treated. abdominal distention and growling was found in all the volunteers during the treatment at CV 8. Strategic directions and road maps : Through successful fulfillment of the program preventing winter disease in the summer, Korean traditional medicine should be integrated into mainstream national health care services. Cultural access was thought to be as important as Scientific EBM approach. First of all, To evoke potential cultural homogeneity from campaigns and press advertisement was needed for promoting public awareness about preventing winter disease in the summer by enhancing immunity via acupoint applying treatment in the three dog days, and then indigenous name as Sambokcheop, protocol, Clinical Research Form for data collection of it should be developed and prepared. Once the first step was taken this summer, through a thorough data collection and scrutinized scientific evaluation, drawbacks should be compensted for and the efficacy and safety should be substantiated.

견우자는 한의학에서 사하 작용 및 이뇨 작용 등의 치료 목적으로 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 견우자를 methanol로 추출하고(PNM), 이를 기본으로 ethyl acetate 분획물(PNE), butanol 분획물(PNB), water 분획물(PNW)로 나누었으며 각 분획물을 이용하여 mushroom tyrosinase 저해활성, pancreatic lipase 저해활성, DPPH free radical 소거활성 및 암세포주의 증식 저해활성 등을 조사하였다. 특히, 전립선암 세포주 PC-3 세포에서 강력한 세포 증식 저해활성을 보였으며, 용매 분획물 중, butanol 분획에서 가장 높은 암세포의 증식 저해활성을 보였다. 따라서 견우자의 methanol 추출물을 Diaion HP-20 column chromatography, reverse phase column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography를 순차적으로 실시하여 최종적으로 저해활성이 가장 높은 compound PN을 얻었으며 HPLC를 통해 그 순도를 확인하였다. Compound PN을 이용하여 cell cycle arrest과 annexin V/PI를 측정한 결과, 세포의 sub-G1기를 축적되면서 apoptosis가 유발되어 전립선암 세포주 PC-3 세포의 세포사멸이 유도되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 견우자에 대한 항산화 활성, 미백 활성 등의 효과 뿐 만 아니라 항암 활성에도 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
