In the present study, the effects of Ginseng radix and Ophiopogonis tuber on field potentials in rat hippocampal slices and cardiac muscle slices were investigated by multi-channel extracellular recording using MED64 system. The field potentials in the brain slices represent synaptic transmission and nerve excitability, and the field potentials in heart muscles represent muscle contractility. The present results show that the aqueous extract of Ginseng radix enhanced field potentials in the both hippocampal slices and cardiac muscle slices. In contrast, the aqueous extract Ophiopogonis tuber exerted no significant effect on the field potentials in the hippocampal slices and cardiac muscle slices. These results suggest the possibility that Yin-Yang theory could be studied in relation with excitability in neurons and muscles.

한국산 맥문동과 중국산 소엽맥문동의 성분패턴비교에서 HPLC 분석 결과, 중국산 소엽맥문동(Ophiopogon japonicus)은 RT. 21.2분의 peak는 표준품과 대조결과 spicatoside B인 것으로 확인되었다 반면에 국산 맥문동(Liriope platyphylla)은 spicatoside A와 spicatoside B가 표준품 대조 결과 RT. 6.8분과 21.2분대에서 확인되었다. 따라서 건조된 상태에서 혼용되어 사용하고 있는 한국산 맥문동과 중국산 소엽맥문동은 HPLC 성분패턴상으로 감별이 가능하게 되었다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate effects on the immune system of Bombyx mori L. and Liriopis seu Ophiopogonis Tuber mixture (BL) in Thymus, Lymph Nodes. Methods : Eight-week-old male Balb/c mice were divided into five groups : Group one included the normal mice (Nor). Positive control group two administrated with red ginseng (RG) 100 mg/kg. Group three administrated with Bombyx mori L. (BX) 300 mg/kg. Group four administrated with Liriopis seu Ophiopogonis Tuber (LP) 300 mg/kg. Group five administrated with the mixture of Bombyx mori L. and Liriopis seu Ophiopogonis Tuber (BL) 300 mg/kg. After 2 weeks administration, mice were sacrified and antigen receptor in Thymus, Lymph Nodes was analyzed by using Fluorescence Activated Cellorter Sorting (FACS). we counted the total of Thymus and Lymph Nodes cells. GOT (glutamlc oxaloacetic transaminase), GPT (glutamlc pyruvic transamlnase) in serum were analyzed after experiment. Results : In Effects of Nor, RG, BX, LP, BL on the ratio of CD4+CD8+, CD4+CD69+ and CD4+CD25+ T cell in Thymus and Lymphnode, BL is higher than other groups except Nor in CD4+, CD4+CD69+, CD4+CD25+ T cell. The number of Thymus and Lymph Nodes increased in BL. In the level of GOT and GPT, BL decreased comparing to others group except Nor. Conclusions : BL may have effect on T cells in Thymus, Lymph Nodes. In addition, Bombyx mori could be immune functional material with others herb materials.

HAE series (HAE 01 - 06), are the mixtures of medicinal plants; Lonicerae Folium et Caulis (Lonicera japonica), Scutellariae Radix (Scutellaria baicalensis), Adenophorae Radix (Adenophora triphylla var. japonica), Polygonati Oddorati Rhizoma (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum), Platycodi Radix (Platycodon grandiflorum), Liriopis seu Ophiopogonis Tuber (Liriope platyphylla). HAE 06 showed the significant antitussive effect in HAE series. HAE 04, 05, and 06 increased the effect of expectorant measured by secretion of phenol red in rats. All tested HAE series were observed to have the anti-oxidant activity determined by the scavenging activity. HAE 01, 03 and 06 were significantly reduced the production of nitric oxide (NO) and tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$) increased by LPS. HAE 06 was selected based on the results and done further experiments. HAE 06 inhibited the number of coughing induced by citric acid in dose dependent manner. HAE 06 effectively increased the effect of expectorant. HAE 06 exhibited anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the production of NO and TNF-${\alpha}$. In addition, HAE 06 significantly suppressed inducible Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Especially HAE 06 has the highest effect in alleviating the respiratory symptoms. Moreover, the enhancement antioxidant activity and reduction inflammation partly were attributed to it. HAE 06 may become the promising candidate for the treatment of respiratory symptom in the future.
