In this paper it was attempted to observe the effect of defatted panax ginseng supplement of the growth rate, feed and protein efficiency ratios, and the contents of cholesterol, total lipid and protein in the serum, liver and aorta in Sprague-Dowley Albino male rat (weighing 83 ${\pm}$ 4 g). Seven kinds of experimental diets were prepared as follows : Stock (control) diet, ginseng control diets supplemented with 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0% of ginseng powder to the stock diet, and defatted ginseng Powder diets supplemented with 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0% of defatted ginseng powder to the stock diet. .All diets contained same level of lipid and protein, respectively. The results obtained are as follows : 1. The growth rate in the feeding group of 0.5% defatted ginseng powder diet for 16week were higher than other diet groups. 2. Feed and Protein efficiency in 0.5% defatted ginseng group showed similar tendency to that in body growth rate. 3. The total cholesterol contents in the serum of 0.5% defatted ginseng Powder diet$.$ group showed the tendency to decrease gradually for 4 to 12 weeks, maintaining higher level than other groups. The free cholesterol contents in the serum of defatted ginseng powder diet group in 8 the and 16th weeks were higher than all ginseng control diet group. The total and free cholesterol contents in the liver of all defatted ginseng diet groups in 16th week were higher than hose of all ginseng control groups. The total cholesterol content at 12h week and the free cholesterol content at 16th week i n the aorta of all defatted ginseng diet groups were lower than those of ginseng control groups, respectively. 4. The total lipid contents in the serum of 1.0 and 3.0% defatted ginseng diet groups at 2nd to I2th weeks were lower than other groups, and those in the liver and aorta of all defatted ginseng diet groups at 12th weeks were lower than those of ginseng control diet groups. 5. The protein contents of the serum and aorta were continuously increased throughout whole experimental period in all experimental groups. The protein content of the liver of all groups were decreased at 2nd week and after then no change was observed.

고칼륨과 저온이 혈관내피세포의 acetylcholine(Ach)에 의한 혈관이완에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 흰쥐의 흉부 대동맥을 이용하여 Ach과 sodium nitroprusside(SNP)에 대한 이완 반응을 측정하였다. 실험은 다섯 군으로 나누어서 실시하였으며 각 군을 10례로 하였다. 1군은 대조군으로 어떤 조작도 가하지 않고 organ bath에서 등랑성 긴장도를 측정하였고, 2군(내피세포 제거군)은 내피세포를 물리적으로 제거후 1군과 같은 방법으로 긴장도를 측정하였고, 37$^{\circ}C$ 57에 45분간 처리후 혈관의 등장성 긴장도를 측정하였다. 대조군, 457,4mST및 3757군에서의 Ach에 대한 혈관의 이완은 유의한 차이가 없었으며,내피세포 제거군에서는 Ach에 대한 혈관의 이완이 대조군에 비해 현저하게 감소되었으며, SUP에 대한 혈관의 이완은 모든 군에서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이에 저자들은 다음과 같은 결론을 내릴 수 있었다. 고농도의 칼륨과 저온자체는 흰쥐의 흉부대동맥 내피세포의 Ach에 대한 이완능을 저해하지 않는다.

본 연구의 목적은 외부에서 nitric oxide (NO)를 투여 하였을때 심근 수축력, 심박동수의 변화 및 혈관 평활근에 대한 효과를 비교함으로서 NO에 대한 이들 장기의 민감도가 서로 같은지 또는 상이한지를 알아보고자 하였다. 본 실험에서는 PIANO 방법에 의한 근장력의 변화와 아울러 심근에서의 $Ca^{2+}$ current를 측정하였다. 랫트의 심방근에 대한 PIANO $(STZ,\;100\;{\mu}M)$는 심근수축력 및 심박동수에 전혀 변화를 주지 않았지만 혈관 평활근에서는 강한 이완 작용을 나타내었다. 한편, 8-Br-cGMP도 고농도 $(100\;{\mu}M)$에서만 심근 수축력을 억제하였다. 토끼의 심방근세포에서 Whole cell voltage patch clamp를 사용시 bradykinin, SNP, 8-Br-cGMP 및 PIANO는 $Ca^{2+}$ current를 억제하였다. 이러한 사실은 외부에서 공급되는 NO에 대한 심근과 혈관 평활근의 반응에는 민감도의 차이가 있음을 암시하며 더 나아가 심근의 경우에도 NO 반응에는 종 (species)간의 차이와 동일 종이라 하더라도 세포(cell)와 장기(tissue)에 차이가 있을 가능성을 제시하였다.

$\alpha$-Adrenoceptor subtypes in the isolated rat aortic strips were examined by using agonists and antagonists which have varying selectivity for $\alpha_1$- and $\alpha_2$- adrenoceptors. Norepinephrine and phenylephrine produced a similar magnitude of maximum contractions. $pA_2$ values for prazosin and yohimbine were not significantly different using norepinephrine or phenylephrine as the agonist, suggesting a single population of alpha-adrenoceptor. Contractile responses produced by alpha-agonists were antagonized more effectively by prazosin (approximately 1000 fold) than by yohimbine.

The pharmacological effects of hydrocooked(110oC, 5 hours) extracts of Bastard halibut have been investigated. All of the hydrocooked extracts showed the measurable contractile effect on the isolated rat duodenum and decreased the normal blood pressure in anesthetized rat. The hydrocooked extracts also exhibited a dose dependent relaxation on the isolated rat aorta precontracted with phenylephrine. Only RM 60 fraction of these extracts had the cytotoxic effect against MCF7 cell(human breast adenocarcinoma cell line), but the other fractions showed neither antibacterial activity nor antitumor activity. Although fish extracts fed group of rat maintained their original body weight, there were no notable changes in the hematological parameters, except that the levels of high density lipoprotein was significantly increased. These results suggest that the hydrocooked extracts of bastard halibut may contain a variety of bioactive materials.

This study determined the feasibility of the cuff technique for small-caliber vascular grafts in a rat model. A graft was implanted with the cuff technique or suture technique in a 1-cm segment of the abdominal aorta in 12 rats. The mean aortic clamp time was 29 minutes with the cuff technique and 44 minutes with the suture technique; the cuff technique was significantly shorter. Abdominal angiography at 1 week after implantation showed no significant stenosis in 9 rats, focal stenosis of the mid-portion of the graft in 1 rat with each technique, and total occlusion of the graft in 1 rat with the suture technique. We have successfully used the cuff technique for anastomosis for small-caliber vascular grafts in an animal model.

In order to investigate the pharmacologic properties of New Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill(NSCH), effects of Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill (SCH) and NSCH were compared using various experimental models. In rat aorta, NSCH and SCH made the relaxation of blood vessels in maximum contractile response to phenylephrine (10-6 M) regardless to endothelium containing or denuded rings of the rat aorta. Furthermore, the presence of the inhibitors of NO synthase and guanylate cyclase did not affect significantly the relaxing effects of NSCH and SCH. NSCH and SCH inhibited the vascular contractions induced by acetylcholine, prostaglandin endoperoxide or peroxide in a dose-dependent manner. In conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), NSCH and SCH decreased significantly heart rate. These, at high doses, had a negative inotropic effects that was a decrease of left ventricular developed pressure and (-dp/dt)/(+dp/dt) in the isolated perfused rat hearts, and also decreased the contractile force and heart rate in the isolated rat right atria. In guinea-pig papillary muscle, these had no effects on parameters of action potential such as action potential amplitude (APA), $V_{max}$ and resting membrane potential (RMP) at low doses, whereas inhibitory the cardiac contractility at high doses. Furthermore, these had a significant inhibitory effects on palpitation of the heart in normotensive rats and SHRs. These had a significant inhibitory effects on palpitation of the heart in normotensive rats and SHRs. These results suggest that NSCH and SCH have weak cardiovascular effects, and that there is no significant differences between cardiovascular effects of two preparations.

The vascular relaxant effects on isolated rat aorta of amlodipine camsylates (S-, R-enantiomer, and R/S-racemate), were evaluated and compared with that of S-amlodipine besylate. Furthermore, antihypertensive effects were measured in spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). The S-amlodipine camsylate concentration-dependently inhibited $Ca^{2+}$-induced contraction of rat aorta with a very slow onset of action (reached its maximum at 3.5h; $ED_{50}:\;1.50\;{\pm}\;0.24$ nM), having a potency 2-fold higher than those of R/S-amlodipine camsylate $(ED_{50}:\;3.36\;{\pm}\;0.91\;nM)$ and similar to those of S-amlodipine besylate $(ED_{50}:\;1.44\;{\pm}\;0.14\;nM)$, whereas the R-amlodipine camsylate has 590-fold lower vasorelaxant activity $(ED_{50}:\;886.4\;{\pm}\;49.7\;nM)$. In SHR, orally administered S-amlodipine camsylate produced a dose-dependent and long-lasting (>>10 h) antihypertensive effect $(ED_{20}:\;0.89\;mg/kg)$, with a potency 2-fold higher than those of R/S-amlodipine camsylate $(ED_{20}:\;1.82\;mg/kg)$ and similar to those of S-amlodipine besylate $(ED_{20}:\;0.71\;mg/kg)$. In contrast, the R-amlodipine camsylate has no effect even-though administrated high concentration 10 mg/kg. These results suggest that S-amlodipine camsylate has the potency and long-lasting antihypertensive activity as single enantiomer drug, and its antihypertensive effect is not significantly different to that of S-amlodipine besylate.
