It has been known that Gentianae macrophyllae Radix is reputed to be effective in removal of 'Pungseub' and 'Heoyeol', and to be analgesic. Since ancient times, however, there have been many examples of substituting Lycoctoni Radix for Gentianae macrophyllae Radix. For that reason, this experiment was conducted to compare the diuretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-pyretic, anti-bacterial effect, and toxicity of Lycoctoni Radix with those of Gentianae macrophyllae Radix. The results obtained in this work were summarized as follows; In the test of acute toxicity, Lycoctoni Radix was found to be toxic in comparison to Gentianae macrophyllae Radix which was found to be non-toxic. Both herbs were found to be diuretic and Gentianae macrophyllae Radix was more effective than the other and to be ineffective for the blood pressure and respiration. Lycoctoni Radix was found to be more analgesic than the other. Gentianae macrophyllae Radix was found to be more anti-inflammatory of the two and both demonstrated anti-pyretic effect. Anti-bacterial effect was detected only in Lycoctoni Radix. It is concluded that Gentianae macrophyllae Radix has mild diuretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic effect, but Lycoctoni Radix, due to its toxicity, can not be substituted for Gentianae macrophyllae Radix.

We have studied on the keratinocytes differentiation and skin barrier function using Adenophorae radix (A. radix) root extract, which was known to contain triterpenoid, saponin and starch. A. radix root extracts showed the $PPAR{\alpha}$ expression level of Wy-14,643 $0.5-1.0{\mu}M$ in CV-1 cells. The cornified envelop formation (CE) of human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) and normal human keratinocyte (NHK) showed a statistically significant increased compared to the control. When HaCaT cells were treated with A. radix root extract, transglutaminase (TGase-1) was significantly increased. As a result of clinical study of the simple cosmetic formulation containing A. radix root extract for about 2 weeks, TEWL values were significantly decreased and water contents were increased. The ceramides, which were obtained from the inner forearm, were also significantly increased statistically. We suggest that the A. radix root extract can be used as a preventive and therapeutic agent for skin diseases such as dry skin and atopy.

Objectives : Bangyakhappyeon was classified into three tongs of prescription. When juxtaposed with existing publications on oriental medicine, this composition was considerably original. Due to its ease of searching for diseases and prescription, it has been read by not only doctors and researchers but also among general citizens alike. Based on the fundamentals of Bangyakhappyeon composition, this thesis focused on the thorough research on the prescription of Bupleuri Radix mixture. Methods : 42 prescriptions of Bupleuri Radix mixtures have been divided in to three tongs based on the composition of Bangyakhappyeon. Then, these prescriptions, dosage, and composition were researched and organized. Results : After analyzing the prescription of Bupleuri Radix mixture in the Uibanghwaltu chapter of the Bangyakhappyeon text, the following results were attained. 1. Of the 42 prescriptions of Bupleuri Radix mixtures, jungtong constitutes the most prescription at 30, 8 at hatong, and 4 at sangtong. 2. 42 prescriptions are documented into 18 medical divisions and 44 disease symptoms. 3. After analyzing the prescription dosage of Bupleuri Radix mixture, the dosage of Bupleuri Radix was 3 puns to 4 jeons used in 14 sections. Most use was 1 jeon 14 prescriptions, 33.3% were recorded. 4. Invigorating vital function, catharsis, malaria, mediation method, and clearing away method of Bupleuri Radix have a close relationship with the dosage. 5. The 42 prescriptions formation of using Bupleuri Radix consisted of decoction at 39 prescriptions (92.9%) and the others at 3 prescriptions (7.1%). 6. As a result of researching the component of the prescription of Bupleuri Radix mixture, Sosihotang, Soyosan and Bojungikgitang were used as the basic prescription.

This paper presented a new structure of RSA cryptosystem using modified Montgomery algorithm and CSA(Carry Save Adder) tree. Montgomery algorithm was modified to a radix-4 modified Booth algorithm. By appling radix-4 modified Booth algorithm and CSA tree to modular multiplication, a clock cycle for modular multiplication has been reduced to (n＋3)/2 and carry propagation has been removed from the cell structure of modular multiplier. That is, the connection efficiency of full adders is enhanced.

Based upon our laboratory experiments of Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotac Cacumen, Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen on male rats to examine the medicines' hemostatic effect, we draw conclusions as follows: 1. Compared to the control group, Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotae Cacumen, Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen increased the number of platelet counts meaningfully. 2. Compared to the control group, Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotae Cacumen, Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen suppressed prothrombin time without any meaning. 3. Compared to the control group, Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotae Cacumen, Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen, all of these medicines elevated the fibrinogen level, but only Yongdamsagantang subtracte Bupleuri Radix is recognized to raise the fibrinogen level meaningfully. 4. Compared to the control group, Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotae Cacumen. Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen repressed partial thromboplastin time meaningfully. In conclusion, Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix and Yongdamsagantang subtracted Bupleuri Radix added Biotae Cacumen, Imperatae Rhizoma, Typhae Pollen can be used for stopping blood effectively in terms of platelet count increase, prothrombin time control, fibrinogen level rise, and partial thromboplastin time suppression.

In order to evaluate the direct effect of estrogenic compounds in oriental herbal medicines, the estrogenic activity was measured using an in vitro detection system. For this system, human breast cancer cell line MCF7 was transfected using an estrogen responsive CAT reporter plasmid. Estrogenic activities of Platycodi radix, Astragali radix and Glycyrrhizae radix were evaluated using this system. Estrogenic activity of a 500 ㎍/ml ethanol extract of Platycodi radix was as same as that of a 10/sup -8/ M standard solution (17β-estradiol) and activity of a 50 ㎍/ml ethanol extract was between those of a 10/sup -8/ M and a 10/sup -9/ M standard solutions. In addition, estrogenic activity of a 50 ㎍/ml ethanol extract of Platycodi radix was as same as that of a 10/sup -10/ M standard solution. The same activity patterns were observed in the system which was treated by Astragali radix or Glycyrrhizae radix extracts. The most effective activity was observed in a system which was treated by Platycodi radix extract, but the least activity was observed by Glycyrrhizae radix extract. In this result, it was confirmed that Platycodi radix, Astragali radix and Glycyrrhizae radix extracts possess estrogenic compounds.
