This study was made to investigate the antioxidative effects of Geagibokrounghwan on the hepatic and renal lesion induced by cholesterol in mouse. The normal group was fed basal diet and water ; control groups were fed basal diet containing 0.5% of cholesterol ; test groups were fed the Geagibokrounghwan extract($10m{\ell}/kg$) after fed basal diet containing 0.5% of cholesterol for 6 weeks. In the liver and kidney of control group, lipid peroxidation(LPO) was significantly increased, however, the activities of superoxidation dismutase(SOD) and catalase and the amount of glutathion(GSH) were significantly decreased. In the liver and kidney of test group, lipid peroxidation(LPO) was decreased significantly as compared with control group. Contrary to this, the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD), catalase and the amount of glutathion(GSH) were significantly increased. These results indicate that Geagibokrounghwan revealed the antioxidant effects, which may reduce the hepatic and renal damage induced by cholesterol in mouse.

In order to examine the antioxidant actions of YMJHT, the study was done through measurement of parameters such as LPO(lipidperoxidation), GSH(glutathione), SOD(superoxidation dismutase), catalase, GOT, GPT, ALP, the results were obtained as follows: For the weight changes, in the testis the group given YMJHT showed significant increase compared to the control group. In the left cerebrum, the group given YMJHT showed significant increase compared to the control group on the activities of SOD, catalase. In the right cerebrum, the group given YMJHT showed significant decrease on the content of LPO and showed significant increase on the activity of catalase. In the cerebellum, the group given YMJHT showed significant decrease on the content of LPO and showed significant increase on the activities of SOD, catalase. In the liver, the group given YMJHT showed significant decrease on the content of GSH and showed significant increase on the activity of SOD. In the kidney, the group given YMJHT showed significant decrease on the contents of GSH, GSH and showed significant increase on the activities of SOD, catalase. In the testis, the group given YMJHT showed significant decrease on the contents of LPO, GSH and showed significant increase on the activity of SOD. From above results, the antioxidant action of YMJHT is effective. And it is expected to be necessary to the study of the mechanism in the antioxidant of YMJHT.

In order to examine the antioxidant activities of SJDBT(Sibjeondaebo-tang), the study was done through measurement of parameters such as LPO(lipidperoxidation), GSH(glutathione), SOD(superoxidation dismutase), catalase, GOT, GPT, ALP. The results were obtained as follows: For the weight changes, the kidney and testis of group given SJDBT showed decrease in the weight compared to the control group, and the left cerebrum, right cerebrum, cerebellum and liver of group given SJDBT showed increase. But the changes were not significant. The left cerebrum and right cerebrum of group given SJDBT showed significant decrease in the content of LPO compared to the control group, and in the activity of SOD and catalase showed significant increase. The cerebellum of group given SJDBT showed significant decrease in the content of LPO and GSH compared to the control group, and in the activity of SOD and catalase showed significant increase. For the changes of LPO, GSH in the liver, the group given SJDBT showed significant decrease in the content of LPO and GSH compared to the control group, and in the activity of catalase showed significant increase. For the changes of LPO in the kidney, the group given SJDBT showed significant decrease in the content of LPO compared to the control group. For the changes of LPO, GSH and the activity of SOD, catalase in the testis, the group given SJDBT showed significant decrease in the content of LPO and GSH compared to the control group, and in the activity of SOD and catalase showed significant increase. From above results, the antioxidant action of SJDBT is effective. And it is expected to be necessary to the study of the mechanism in the antioxidant of SJDBT.
