This Study was designed to investigate the effects of Patholobi Caulis on the change of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and blood Pressure (MABP) in normal and Cerebral ischemic rats. And, this Study was designed to investigate the inhibition of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in neuronal cells. The results were as follows : In normal rats, Patholobi Caulis significantly increased rCBF in a dose-dependent manner, and MABP was somewhat increased. In ischemia rats, rCBF was significantly and stably increased by Patholobi Caulis (10 mg/kg, i.p.) during the period of cerebral reperfusion, which contrasted with the findings of rapid and marked increase in control group. Patholobi Caulis significantly inhibited LDH activity in neuronal cells. It was suggested that Patholobi Caulis had an anti-ischemic effect through the improvement of cerebral hemodynamics and inhibitive effect on the brain damage.

CheonghunHwadam-tang(CHT) have been used in oriental medicine for many centuries as a therapeutic agent of vertigo by wind, fire and phlegm. CheonghunHwadam-tangGamypang(CHTG) was CHT adding Aurantii Fructus(AF), Gastrodae Rhizoma(GR). The effects of CHT on the cerebral blood flow and cardiacvascular system is not known. The purpose of this Study was to investigate effects of CHT and CHTG on the regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), mean arterial blood pressure(BP), cardiac muscle contractile force(CMF), heart rate(HR). The changes of cerebral blood flow and movement of cardiacvascular system(BP, CMF, HR) was determinated by Laser-Doppler Rowmetry(LDF). The results were as follows; 1. CHT extract increased rCBF, but decreased BP, HR in a dose-dependent manner. 2. AF extract accelerated rCBF and movement of cardiacvascular system in a dose-dependent manner. 3. GR extract increased significantly rCBF(10.0mg/kg, p<0.05) as well as accelerated BP and rCBF in a dose-dependent manner. 4. CHTG extract increased significantly rCBF(10.0mg/kg, p<0.01) in a dose-dependent, but was not changed movement of cardiacvascular system. This results suggest that CHTG is significantly treated more than CHT in vertigo by wind, fire and phlegm.

뇌혈류 SPECT영상을 사용하여 뇌혈류를 간접적으로 평가하는 방법으로 횡단면 또는 관상면의 단층상을 이용하여 관류 결손 부위의 계수 분포를 평면적으로 조사하는 방법이 주로 사용되어 왔으나, 일반적으로 관류결손 부위의 크기는 다양하며 특히 임의의 형태를 갖는 관류 결손을 포함하는 영상에서는 평면 분석에 의한 결과는 많은 오차를 나타낼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 체적 분석에 의한 평가 방법을 제안하고자 하였으며, 기초연구로서 동일한 뇌혈류 SPECT 영상에 대하여 평면 분석과 체적 분석 방법을 적용하여 비교하므로서 체적 분석 방법의 안정도와 정확도를 검토하였다. 평면 분석 방법에서는 관류 결손 부위의 크기와 형상에 따라 뇌혈류평가 지표인 계수 분포의 변화가 관찰되었으며, 합산에 사용된 단층상의 수에 따라 체적 분석과 상이한 결과를 보였다. 또한 평면 분석은 횡단면을 사용하는 경우와 관상면을 사용하는 경우 각각에서도 상이한 결과를 보여 체적 분석 방법이 뇌혈류 평가지표로서 신뢰도 높은 결과를 산출할 수 있음을 알았다.

As an attempt to develop new functional health beverage by using medicinal herb, Artemisia capillaris, we investigated the effect of scopoletin in Artemisia capillaris on vessel and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) of rats ingesting health drink prepared with Artemisia capillaris extracts and various ingredients. Artemisia capillaris extract decreased the vessel contraction and increased rCBF significantly. The extracts were grouped by heat temperature and mixed ratio and tested their respective characteristics. Then each condition was combined and produced the most effective one. The drink produced consisted of Artemisia capillaris extract 42%, honey 9.8%, citric acid 0.035%, cyclodextrin 1.47% and water. Brix, pH and acidity of the product were 9.2, 4.4 and 0.04%, respectively, This drink scored to have highest level on overall acceptance by the sensory evaluation. The above results showed that development of such functional beverage using Artemisia capillaris can be used as a functional material improving blood circulation in beverage industry.

The purpose of this study was to measure the changes of regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF) and blood pressure(BP) in rats, following the intravenous injection of Nelumbo nucifera water extract. The measurement was continually monitored by laser-doppler flowmeter and pressure transducer in anesthetized adult Sprague-Dawley rats for about 2 to 2 and half hours through the data acquisition system composed of MacLab and Macintosh computer. The results of this experiment were as follows. Nelumbo nucifera significantly increased the changes of rCBF in rats. The rCBF of Nelumbo nucifera was not changed by pretreated propranolol, atropine, L-NNA and indomethacin. But the rCBF of Nelumbo nucifera was decreased by pretreated methylene blue. Nelumbo nucifera decreased the BP significantly. The BP of Nelumbo nucifera was not changed by pretreated propranolol, atropine, L-NNA and indomethacin. But the BP of Nelumbo nucifera was decreased by pretreated methylene blue. These results indicated that Nelumbo nucifera might increase the rCBF and decrease the BP which related to guanylyl cyclase activity.

This experimental study was designed to investigate the effects of FOENICULI FRUCTUS freeze dry powder (FF) on the change of cerebral hemodynamics [regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP)] in normal and further to determine the mechanism of action of FF. The results in normal rats were as follows ; FF significantly increased rCBF in a dose-dependent, but decreased MABP, This results were suggested that FF significantly increased rCBF by dilating PAD. The FF-induced increase in rCBF was significantly inhibited by pretreatment with 1H[1,2,4]oxadizolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 10 ${\mu}$g/kg, i.p.), an inhibitor of guanylate cyclase and indomethacin (IDN, 1 mg/kg, i.p.), an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase and propranolol (PPN, 3 mg/kg, i.p.), a blocker of adrenalic f receptor and Lu-Nitro-L-Arginine (L-NNA, 1 m9/kB, i.p.), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. The FFE-induced decrease in MABP was significantly increased by pretreatment with L-NNA and was increased by pretreatment with PPN, Dut was inhibited by pretreatment with ODQ and IDN, This results were suggested that the mechanism of FF was mediated by nitric oxide synthase and adrenalic ${\beta}$ receptor.

Regional cerebral blood flow were measured in 10 patients with Parkinson's disease and 12 normal persons using $^{99m}Tc-HMPAO$ SPECT. Reconstructed images were interpreted qualitatively and were compared with those findings of CT. For the quantitative analysis, six pairs of region of interest matched with the perfusion territories of large cerebral arteries and cerebellar hemisphere were determined. From the count values, indices showing the degree of asymmetry between right and left cerebral or cerebellar hemisphere, cerebral asymmetry index (ASI) and percent index of cerebellar asymmetry (PIA), and an index showing change of each region, region to cerebellum ratio (RCR) were obtained. ASI of normal persons and patients were $0.082{\pm}0.033$ and $0.108{\pm}0.062$, respectively and PIA were $-0.4{\pm}0.7%$ and $-0.7{\pm}1.0%$, respectively, which showed no statistically significant difference between normal persons and patients. Among 10 RCR's, those of both regions of basal ganglia and both regions of anterior cerebral artery were significantly reduced. We concluded that the most significant reduction of regional cerebral blood flow in patients with Parkinson's disease was observed in the regions of basal ganglia and in the regions of anterior cerebral artery, and the degree of change in hemispheric blood flow was similar in both hemisphere.
