Effective BuOH fraction was extracted from Puerariae radix (Pueraria thunbergiana), and several pharmacological activities were examined. From several pharmacological examinations, it was found that BuOH fraction has an antipyretic activity against typhoid vaccine pyrexia in rabbit, a papaverine-like antispasmodic activity on isolated ileum and jejunum of rat, an analgesic effects on mice treated by 0.7% HAc, and an anti-inflammatory activity of carrageenin edema in rat. It was found that BuOH fraction has detoxication effects on acute and subacute toxic rat induced by alcohol in consequence of biochemical tests of serum. Therefore it was considered that BuOH fraction has preventive and therapeutic effects in alcohol intoxication.

인삼이 면역계 질환의 일종인 과민성 반응에 대한 치료약으로서의 가능성을 연구하기 위해서 in viva와 in vitra실험을 수행하였다. in vitra실험으로서는 hyaluronidase의 활성을 지표로 삼았으며, in viva실험에서는 mouse이각, rat등피부, 복강 비만세포, 그리고 guinea pig의 ileum에서 면역반응에 대한 아답타겐의 작용을 관찰하였다. in uitra 실험에서는 hyaluronidase와 histamine 분비를 항알레르기 작용의 지표로 사용하였다. hyaluronidase의 경우 그 활성은 Cacl2로 활성화 시키기 전이나 후에 모두 아답타겐(100, 50, 및 10 mg/ml)에 의해서 현저하게 억제되었다. 한편 rat 복강 비만 세포에서의 histamine유리 시험에서는 아답타겐(0.5, 1, 5mg/ml)이 histamine유리가 증가되었다. Guinea pig의 ileum 평활근에서는 아답타겐이 평활근 자극 작용없이 항히스타민 효과률 나타내었다. in uiua 실험의 첫 단계로 우리는 혈관 투과성에 미치는 아답타겐의 효과를 mouse 이각과 rat 등피부에서 관찰하였다. Mouse이각에서의 실험에서는 hoistamine, serotonin, 그리고 LTC4로 challenge하여 관찰한 결과 histamine과 serotonin의 경우, 혈관투과성 항진은 아답타겐(50-400mg/m1)에 의해서 유의성있게 억제되었으나, rat 등 피부에서는 mouse에서와는 달리 48-hr PCA가 증가 되었고, histamine에 의한 혈관투과성 항진은 아답타겐에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다. 반면에 compound 48/80과 serotonin에 의한 혈관투과성 항진은 mouse 의 경우에서처럼 아답타겐에 의해 억제되었다.

The purpose of this study was to assess the role of tachykinins (TK) in mediating nonadrenergic noncholinergic (NANC) contractions produced by electrical field stimulation (EFS) in the longitudinal muscle of the rat ileum. In the presence of atropine ($1{\mu}M$), guanethidine ($5{\mu}M$), and L-nitroarginine (L-NNA, $200{\mu}M$), EFS (0.5ms pulse duration, 120 V, 1-20 Hz for 2 min) produced a frequency-dependent slowly-developing tonic contraction with superimposed phasic contractions ('on'-contraction) followed by off slowly-decreasing tonic and superimposed phasic contractions ('off'-contraction) of mucosa-free longitudinal oriented muscle strip. These EFS induced responses were blocked by tetrotoxin. $NK_1$ receptor selective antagonist L-732,138 strongly inhibited the EFS-induced excitatory responses. However $NK_2$ receptor selective antagonist, GR 159897 and $NK_3$ receptor selective antagonist SB 222200 did not significantly inhibited the responses. $NK_1$ receptor selective agonist [$Sar^9$,$Met(O_2)^{11}$] Substance P and $NK_2$ receptor selective agonist [${\beta}-Ala^8$]-neurokinin A (4-10) induced tonic contraction with superimposed phasic contractions of longitudinal oriented muscle strip and almost blocked by selective antagonist L-732,138 and GR 159897, respectively. But $NK_3$ receptor selective agonist senktide did not showed any effect. Nifedipine ($1{\mu}M$) abolished the contraction produced either by EFS or by the TK receptor agonists [$Sar^9$,$Met(O_2)^{11}$] Substance P or [${\beta}-Ala^8$]-neurokinin A (4-10). It is concluded that, in the longitudinal muscle of rat ileum, both $NK_1$ and $NK_2$ receptors modulated the responses to exogenous tachykinins, whereas $NK_1$ is mainly involved in NANC neuromuscular contraction.

The transfer of cupric sulfate across the rat small intestine in vitro was studied by perfusion method using the segments of everted rat small intestine. Copper transport was approximately propotional to the metal concentration in the mucosal solution and no difference was observed in the metal transport among rat duodenum, jejunum and ileum. It was suggested from these results that copper transport across the rat small intestine would occur by passive diffusion. The effect of various chelating agents on copper transport across the rat small intestine n vitro and its uptake by the intestine were also studied. Copper transport was greatly enhanced in the presence of EDTA and NTA. Copper uptake decreased to a greater extent in the presence of EPTA and NTA.

Loperamide-induced constipation reduced gastric emptying, small-intestinal and colonic motility, and these effects were prevented by Actindia chinensis(Gold Kiwi Fruit, GKF). In this study, the effects of Actindia chinensis on constipated male Sprague-Dawley rats induced by loperamide(2 mg/kg, s.c.,5 days) were investigated. Rats were randomly assigned to the normal control rats(regular diet), constipated rats(regular diet plus loperamide), constipated rats treated with 2.5% GKF(regular diet supplemented with 2.5% GKF plus loperamide), constipated rats treated with 5% GKF (regular diet supplemented with 5% GKF plus loperamide). There was less fecal excretion and lower fecal water content in loperamide-treated rats than in control rats. Oral administration of GKF blocked the decrease of fecal excretion and fecal water content in the loperamide-treated rats. Mucus production of crypt cell and mucus contents at fecal and mucosa surface were reduced by loperamide-treated rat. But colonic crypt cell contained increased mucin in the GKF treated group and mucus layer stained with alcian blue was significantly thicker in GKF treated rats compared with in loperamide-treated rats. In isolated rat ileum, loperamide produced inhibition of ileal motility. Pretreatment with methanolic extracts of GKF in isolated rat ileum prevented inhibition by loperamide. These findings indicated that the GKF was effective for alleviation of inhibition of colonic peristalsis by loperamide and that GKF might be of value in the prevention of constipation.

Anemarrhenae Rhizoma has been clinically used as a sedative drug in oriental medicine. We observed the sedative action and effect on the movement of isolated-ileum with each water extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma (F-I), saline solution treated preparation (F-II) and 25% ethanol treated preparation (F-III). The results obtained were summerized as follows; 1) Sedative actions were recognized with F-I, F-II and F-III. 2) Prolonged effect of sleeping time was recognized significantly with F-I, F-II and F-III. 3) Each fraction of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma showed the released action on the isolated-ileum of the mouse, rat, rabbit and guinea pig, and antagonic action against contraction induced by acetylcholine, barium chloride and histamine. Thus the mechanism in the released action of the smooth muscle was partly considered as the direct dependence of the smooth muscle.

This study was carried out to investigate the motor activity and glucose transport and metabolism of Gaewool-Whadam-Jian(GWJ) in rat gastro-intestinal tract. The motor activity of the rat gastro-intestinal tract has been investigated by means of measuring barium sulfate passage degrees. Atropine treatment significantly delayed barium sulfate transit, and GWJ pretreatment increased intestinal motor activity, but not significant. GWJ administration showed no toxicity to kidney and liver. Transport and metabolism of glucose were studied in everted sac of rat small intestine with incubation under several conditions. The transport and metabolism of glucose were greater at jejunum than ileum. So, everted jejunum of rat were used to study the effect of GWJ. When GWJ were treated, the concentration of glucose were higher than untreated group. This result was thought to be influenced by the glucose in GWJ. When 2, 4 dinitrophenol and phlorizin were treated, the transport and metabolism of glucose were decreased, but GWJ treated together, the concentration of glucose in serosal solution increased. Gastric juice secretion and total acidity significantly decreased by administration of GWJ through duodenum region. The mechanism of effect of GWJ was still unidentified, Dut through continuous investigation, the effect of GWJ should be investigated.
