Lycopus lucid us Turcz is well known as traditional Chinese medicine, and it has been shown to exhibit antiinflammatory, -allergic and -oxidative effect. However, its anti-cancer properties have not been examined yet. In this study, we investigated the effect of the methanol extract of Lycopus lucid us Turcz on anti-cancer effect in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Treatment of Lycopus lucidus Turcz extract induced apoptosis and inhibition of cell proliferation in dose- and time-dependent manner. Apoptosis in the MCF-7 cells was characterized with the changes in nuclear morphology; decrease of Bcl-2 and caspase-7 expression; and increase of cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase(PARP). Furthermore, treatment of Lycopus lucidus Turcz extract caused the down-regulation of cell cycle-related protein including, cdk4, cyclin D1 and E2F-1. These results suggest that Lycopus lucidus Turcz might have the therapeutic value against human breast cancer cells.

This study was designed to investigate effective preprocess methods for the antioxidant activity of Lycopus lucidus Trucz tubers extract. Lycopus lucidus Trucz tubers (LlTT) were treated with D (Dried), SD (Steamed and Dried), ASD (Alcohol-Steamed and Dried), DR (Dried and Roasted), SDR (Steamed, Dried and Roasted), and ASDR (Alcohol-Steamed, Dried and Roasted). Solid content was high in Lycopus lucidus Trucs tubers, which were roasted after drying (especially SDR, ASDR). Total sugar and reducing sugar contents were high in roasted ones. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were high upon alcohol-steaming in both the dried and roasted groups. Antioxidant activities of LlTT extracts showed effective nitrate scavenging ability, ABTs radical scavenging ability, Xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity, and DPPH radical scavenging ability. As a result, roasting or steaming process (especially using alcohol) can be helpful to obtain the highly antioxidative extract of Lycopus lucidus Trucs tubers.

큰쉽싸리 (Lycopus lucidus Trucz. ex Benth. var. hirtus Regel) 자연집단의 자생지가 강원도 지역에서 발견되었다. 큰쉽싸리는 잎과 줄기에 많은 털을 갖는 특징으로 쉽싸리(L. lucidus var. lucidus)와 구분되는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 본 본류군의 분류학적 한계는 연구 보고된 바가 없고, 본 분류군의 한반도 분포 역시 명확히 알려진 바가 없다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 본 분류군의 상세한 형태학적 기재와 지리학적 분포 및 습성을 제시하였다.

Four compounds were isolated from the leaves and stems of Lycopus lucidus and identified as $2{\alpha}-hydroxy$ ursolic acid, tormentic acid, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside and linarin by spectroscopic methods.

Three phenolic compounds, rosmarinic acid (1), methyl rosmarinate (2), ethyl rosmarinate (3), and two flavonoids, luteolin (4), luteolin-7-O-$\beta$-D-glucuronide methyl ester (5) were isolated from the aerial part of Lycopus lucidus (Labiatae). Their structures were determined by chemical and spectral analysis. Compounds 1-5 exhibited potent antioxidative activity on the NBT superoxide scavenging assay. The $IC_{50}$ values for compounds 1-5 were 2.59, 1.42, 0.78, 2.83, and 3.05 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL respectively. In addition, five compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of fractions of methanol(MeOH) extracts of Lycopus lucidic Turcz on hyperglycemia and energy metabolites in streptozotocin(STZ) diabetic rats. Diabetes mellitus was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-220 g by an injection of STZ dissolved in a citrate buffer into the tail vein at a dose of 45 mg/kg of body weight, and the rats were divided into 7 groups, that is, one normal group and 6 diabetic groups: STZ-control, hexane, chloroform(CHCl$\sub$3/). ethylacetate(EtOAc), butanol(BuOH) and H$\sub$2/O fraction-fed groups. All groups were fed an AIN-93 diet and the fractions of Lycopus lucidic Turcz were administered orally with 2 % Tween 80 for 14 days after the STZ injection. Body weight, diet intake and organ weights were monitored. The plasma levels of blood glucose, insulin and protein were determined. The plasma concentrations of cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and free fatty acid were assayed. The plasma activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase(ALT) were also measured. Body weight losses were observed by feeding the fractions of Lycopus lucidic Turcz in STZ experimental groups, and the kidney weight was increased. The extent of blood glucose decrement was significantly greater in the hexane and BuOH fraction-fed groups than STZ-control group. The plasma protein level was significantly lower in the H$\sub$2/O fraction-fed group. The plasma cholesterol level was decreased in BuOH and H$\sub$2/O fraction-fed groups compared with the STZ-control group. The levels of free fatty acids in the CHC1$\sub$3/ and H$\sub$2/O fraction-fed groups were significantly decreased(p<0.05). ALT activitiy of BuOH fraction-fed group was lower than control but it was not significantly different. These results suggest that the fractions of Lycopus lucidic Turcz are capable of lowering blood glucose and fat metabolites concentrations when administered to STZ-treated rats, and AST/ALT activity and insulin levels show the possibility of therapeutic use to diabetes mellitus.

In this research, the dyeing properties of $Lycopus$ $lucidus$ Turcz on cotton and silk fabrics were evaluated to establish a scientific database of natural dyes. The optimum dyeing conditions were identified with K/S values depending on the dyeing concentration, temperature, time, and pH. For the optimum conditions, the color changes for different synthetic mordants were observed as L, $a^*$, $b^*$ and H, V, C. The color fastness after dyeing and mordanting was also examined. Additionally, the antibiosis of $Lycopus$ $lucidus$ Turcz was examined. The results were as follows: For the cotton, the optimized dyeing conditions were 300% (o.w.f.), $50^{\circ}C$, 40 min., and pH 5. For the silk fabric, the conditions were 450% (o.w.f.), $70^{\circ}C$, 60 min., and pH 4. The K/S value of dyed cotton improved about 1.03-2.78 folds after mordanting. The fabric color was yellow in the absence of mordanting, while it was reddish yellow after post-mordanting with FFC. Although the color changed with the mordanting method and mordant, the overall hue was yellow. Thus, $Lycopus$ $lucidus$ Turcz appears to have the potential for use as a natural dyeing material for a yellow hue. The K/S value of the dyed silk fabric improved about 1.05-1.40 folds after mordanting. The fabric showed a reddish yellow color when pre-mordanted with Al and Cu. The washing and dry-cleaning fastness of the cotton and silk fabrics were at the 4-5 level. The light fastness of the cotton improved after mordanting; however, pre-mordanting was more effective than post-mordanting or the absence of mordanting. The dyed cotton, silk fabrics showed excellent antibiosis.

본 연구에서는 쉽싸리의 재분화와 순화에 영향을 주는 탄소급원의 효과에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 식물체 재분화는 1/2MS 배지에 3 ~ 10%의 sucrose와 glucose를 각각 다른 농도로 처리하여 재분화를 유도하였다. 그 결과 3%와 5% sucrose 처리에서 줄기증식과 발근이 증가되었으며, 고농도 처리에서는 줄기와 뿌리 길이 등의 생육이 억제되었다. 기외 순화 중 3% 혹은 5% sucrose 처리 배지에서 생육한 식물체의 뿌리비대, 뿌리길이, 줄기 길이 및 생존율은 glucose 및 다른 농도처리와 비교하여 가장 높게 나타났다. 따라서 3% 및 5% sucrose 처리는 쉽싸리의 기내 생육과 순화를 위해 가장 적정한 농도로 확인되었다.

꿀풀과의 Lycopus charkeviczii Prob.가 제주도를 제외한 전국에서 발견되었다. 본 종은 소견과보다 긴 숙존하는 악편, 좁은 피침형에서 장타원상 피침형인 잎과 같은 공유 형질을 가지고 있어 쉽싸리(L. lucidus)와 유사하다. 그러나 심열하는 악, 상부는 불규칙한 파상이며 선점이 없거나 드물게 있는 소견과인 특징으로 뚜렷이 구분된다. 국명은 생육지를 고려하여 '산쉽싸리'로 신칭하였고, 이에 대한 기재, 도해, 사진 및 검색표를 제시하였다.
