From crude drug preparation(Soshiho-Tang) ginseng sapogenins were identified by TLC and $ginsenoside-Rb_1$ was determined quantitatively by HPLC. Panaxadiol, pandaxatriol, acid-hydrolysates of ginseng saponin, were identified by TLC with benzene/acetone(4 : 1, v/v). Rf values of which were measured as 0.26 and 0.14, respectively. The content of $ginsenoside-Rb_1$ was determined by HPLC on $Lichrosorb-NH_2$ column with $CH_3CN/H_2O/n-BuOH$(80 : 20 : 10, v/v). Its recovery rate in the extract granules, was as relatively low as $19.8{\pm}1.4%$ compared to the content in raw red ginseng.

Fermentation characteristics of Baikhaju (a typical Korean traditional alcoholic beverage) were investigated during fermentation with differently treated rice samples, which were steamed rice (SR), plain steamed rice bread (RB), rice porridge (RP) and roasted rice (RR). The RB sample showed an excellent fermentation efficiency with the highest alcohol production (20.84%). The SR and RR samples showed 17.79% and 17.31% of alcohol production, respectively. The RP sample was the lowest alcohol production (11.47%). The pH values of all the beverage samples were similar and were ranged from 3.6 to 3.9. The fermentation periods of RB and RR samples were longer than the SR and RP. The inner temperature and microbial growth in all the beverages increased at each of input steps of the rice and Nuruk (a Korean-style bran koji). Fusel oil content of the SR and RP samples (613.6 ppm) was higher than that of RR (482.7 ppm). The RB sample with the best fermentation efficiency had the lowest fusel oil content (341.8 ppm). The RP sample showed the highest score in sensory evaluation and RB sample showed the lowest. The results on sensory evaluation were contrary to those on the fermentation efficiency.

In the previous study, we demonstrated that ginsenoside $Rb_1$ isolated from the butanol fraction of the head of Panax ginseng had significant gastroprotective activity on gastritis and gastric ulcer models in rats. It has been well established that drugs to have capacity of scavenging or inhibiting the generation of reactive oxygen radicals prevent the gastric mucosal injury. Ginsenoside $Rb_1$ was tested on HCl ethanol-induced gastritis in rats, DPPH-induced free radical scavenging effect, MDA assay, GSH activity, and SOD activity in gastric tissue. It showed significant inhibition in HCl ethanol-induced gastritis, and al~o significantly increase of GSH activated SOD. We speculate that the protective effect of ginsenoside $Rb_1$ against HCl ethanol-induced gastric mucosal damage is originated from the increase of GSH and the activation of SOD.

폐MDF로부터 해섬하여 얻은 재생섬유를 Reactive Red H-E3B (Bis-monochlorotriazine(MCT)/MCT type)와 Reactive Red RB 133%(bis-monochlorotriazine/Vinyl sulphone type)로 염색할 때 최적의 염색조건을 구명하기 위하여 염색조건(염료 농도, 염과 알칼리 첨가량, 염색온도)과 염색특성 및 일광견뢰도와의 관계를 검토하였다. 2종의 반응성염료 모두 염료농도가 1~10(%,OWF)로 증가함에 따라 염착량(K/S)은 증가하였다. 또한, H-E3B가 RB 133%보다 염료 농도에 관계없이 K/S는 높았으며, 자외선 조사에 따른 색차는 낮아 자외선에 의한 변색 저항성이 양호하였다. 황산나트륨의 첨가량이 증가할수록 색차 및 K/S도 증가하였으며, 염의 첨가량은 50~70 g/L가 적절하였다. 2 g/L의 탄산나트륨 첨가에 의해 색차 및 K/S가 크게 증가하였으나 그 이상의 첨가량 증가에서는 거의 차이가 없었다. 탄산나트륨의 첨가량은 pH 10을 유지하는 5~10 g/L가 적절할 것으로 생각된다. H-E3B 염료는 염색 온도가 높아짐에 따라 염착량이 증가하다가 $80^{\circ}C$에서 다시 감소한 반면 RB 133%는 $60{\sim}70^{\circ}C$까지는 거의 동일한 염착량을 나타냈으나, 이후 감소하였다. 따라서 H-E3B는 $80^{\circ}C$, RB 133%는 $60^{\circ}C$가 적정한 것으로 판단된다. 이상의 최적조건에서 폐MDF 목질섬유를 염색처리하면 H-E3B염료는 1.5~2.0R, RB 133%염료는 9.6~10.0 PR의 색상을 가지는 염색 재생 목질섬유의 제조가 가능하였다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to cast light on initiating molecular events associated with the development of premalignant oral lesions induced by tobacco and/or areca nut. Method: Immunohistochemical analyses of cell cycle regulatory proteins (LIMD1, RBSP3, p16, RB, phosphorylated RB, p53), EGFR and SH3GL2 (EGFR associated protein) were performed with inflammatory/ulcerative epithelium and adjacent hyperplastic/mild dysplastic lesions. Results: No change in expression of the proteins was seen in inflammatory epithelium. Reduced nuclear expression of LIMD1 was evident in ulcerative epithelium. In hyperplastic lesions, reduced expression of RBSP3, p16, SH3GL2 and overexpression of p-RB and EGFR were apparent. Reduced nuclear expression of p53 was observed in mild dysplastic lesions. Conclusion: Our data suggest that inactivation of LIMD1 in ulcerative epithelium might predispose the tissues to alterations of other cell cycle regulatory and EGFR signaling proteins needed for the development of premalignant oral lesions.

Aim: This study investigates the effects of ginsenoside Rb1 (GsRb1) on methamphetamine (METH)-induced toxicity in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells and METH-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in adult Sprague-Dawley rats. It also examines whether GsRb1 can regulate these effects through the NR2B/ERK/CREB/BDNF signaling pathways. Methods: SH-SY5Y cells were pretreated with GsRb1 (20 mM and 40 mM) for 1 h, followed by METH treatment (2 mM) for 24 h. Rats were treated with METH (2 mg/kg) or saline on alternating days for 10 days to allow CPP to be examined. GsRb1 (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally 1 h before METH or saline. Western blot was used to examine the protein expression of NR2B, ERK, P-ERK, CREB, P-CREB, and BDNF in the SH-SY5Y cells and the rats' hippocampus, nucleus accumbens (NAc), and prefrontal cortex (PFC). Results: METH dose-dependently reduced the viability of SH-SY5Y cells. Pretreatment of cells with 40 µM of GsRb1 increased cell viability and reduced the expression of METH-induced NR2B, p-ERK, p-CREB and BDNF. GsRb1 also attenuated the expression of METH CPP in a dose-dependent manner in rats. Further, GsRb1 dose-dependently reduced the expression of METH-induced NR2B, p-ERK, p-CREB, and BDNF in the PFC, hippocampus, and NAc of rats. Conclusion: GsRb1 regulated METH-induced neurotoxicity in vitro and METH-induced CPP through the NR2B/ERK/CREB/BDNF regulatory pathway. GsRb1 could be a therapeutic target for treating METH-induced neurotoxicity or METH addiction.

In this study, we used a novel α-L-arabinopyranosidase (AbpBs) obtained from ginsenoside-converting Blastococcus saxobsidens that was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and then applied it in the biotransformation of ginsenoside Rb₂ into Rd. The gene, termed AbpBs, consisting of 2,406 nucleotides (801 amino acid residues), and with a predicted translated protein molecular mass of 86.4 kDa, was cloned into a pGEX4T-1 vector. A BLAST search using the AbpBs amino acid sequence revealed significant homology with a family 2 glycoside hydrolase (GH2). The over-expressed recombinant AbpBs in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) catalyzed the hydrolysis of the arabinopyranose moiety attached to the C-20 position of ginsenoside Rb₂ under optimal conditions (pH 7.0 and 40℃). Kinetic parameters for α-L-arabinopyranosidase showed apparent K_m and V_max values of 0.078 ± 0.0002 μM and 1.4 ± 0.1 μmol/min/mg of protein against p-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinopyranoside. Using a purified AbpBs (1 ㎍/ml), 0.1% of ginsenoside Rb₂ was completely converted to ginsenoside Rd within 1 h. The recombinant AbpBs could be useful for high-yield, rapid, and low-cost preparation of ginsenoside Rd from Rb₂.

To evaluate the difference in expressing pharmacological effects of ginseng by intestinal microflora between Koreans, metabolic activities of ginseng, ginsenoside $Rb_1$ and $Rg_1$ by 100 fecal specimens were measured. The ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity for p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside was 0 to 0.42 mmol/min/mg and its average activity (mean${\pm}$SD) was $0.10{\pm}0.07$ mmol/min/mg. The metabolic activities of ginsenosides Rb1 and Rg1 were 0.01 to 0.42 and 0.01 to 0.38 pmol/min/mg, respectively. Their average activities were $0.25{\pm}0.08$ and $0.15{\pm}0.09$ pmol/min/mg, respectively. The compound K-forming activities from ginsenoside Rb1 and ginseng extract were 0 to 0.11 and 0 to 0.02 pmol/min/mg, respectively. Their average compound K-forming activities were $0.24{\pm}0.09$ pmol/min/ mg and $2.14{\pm}3.66$ fmol/min/mg, respectively. These activities all were not different between males and females, or between ages. Although compound K-forming activity from the aqueous extract of ginseng was low compared to that from ginenoside $Rb_1$, their profiles were similar to those of isolated compounds. Based on these findings, we believe that the intestinal bacterial metabolic activities of ginseng components are variable in individuals and may be used as selection markers for responders to ginseng.

후두 편평세포암은 종양세포의 생물학적 특성과 발생부위별 미세환경이 다르기 때문에 임상적 병기만으로 예후를 추정하는 것은 다소 문제점이 있다. 이에 저자들은 종양세포의 유전정보에 의한 증식능이 예후와 연관성이 있는지 규명하고자 EGFR, p53 단백 및 pRB의 표현양상을 후두 편평세포암 40례의 임상적 특성과 비교 검토하여 다음과 같은 성적을 얻었다. 1. p53 단백의 양성 표현율은 임상적 병기, 원발병소의 병기, 경부 림프전이절의 병기, 병리조직학적 분화도, 재발이나 원격전이 흑은 이차암이 있었던 경우와 연관성이 높았다. 2. pRB의 음성 표현율은 침습성이 강한 성문상분, 임상적 병기, 원발병소의 병기, 병리 조직학적 분화도, 재발이나 원격전이 혹은 이차암, 치료에 실패한 경우와 연관성이 높았다. 3. 3년생존율은 p53의 양성표현율과 관계가 있었다. 4. EGFR은 특별한 상관관계가 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 p53 단백과 pRB의 암억제유전자 단백의 면역조직화학적 염색을 통한 표현양상은 후두 편평세포암의 생물학적인 특성을 잘 반영하고 있을 뿐만 아니라 종양 즉 인자들과 밀접한 상관관계가 있어 후두 편평세포암의 악성도를 예측하는데 도움을 주는 예후인자로서 적용시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
