Objective : This study was performed to determine if Scutellaria balicalensis Georgi extract (SbGE) prevents oxidant-induced membrane transport dysfunction in renal tubular cells. Methods : Membrane transport function was estimated by measuring $Na^+$-dependent inorganic phosphate transport in opossum kidney (OK) cells. $H_2O_2$ inhibited phosphate transport in a dose-dependent manner. Results : The inhibitory effect of $H_2O_2$ was significantly prevented SbGE over concentration range of 0.005-0.05%. $H_2O_2$ caused ATP depletion, which was prevented by SbGE. $H_2O_2$ induced the loss of mitochondrial function as evidenced by decreased MTT reduction and its effect was prevented by SbGE. The $H_2O_2$-induced inhibition of phosphate transport was not affected by a potent antioxidant DPPD, but the inhibition was prevented by an iron chelator deferoxamine, suggesting that $H_2O_2$ inhibits $Na^+$-dependent phosphate transport via an iron-dependent nonperoxidative mechanism in renal tubular cells. Conclusion : These data suggest that SbGE may exert the protective effect against oxidant-induced membrane transport dysfunction by a mechanism similar to iron chelators in renal epithelial cells. However, furher studies should be carried out to find the active ingredient(s) of SbGE that exerts the protective effect.

Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Labiatae) has been extensively used in treatment of diarrhea, conjunctivitis, gastritis, enteritis and skin disease. As instructed in old description, the Scutellariae Radix should sometimes be processed before use. To 노디 light on the changes of chemical compositions by processing as well as processing method-activity relationships, Scutellariae Radix was heated at 16$0^{\circ}C$-20$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. in furnace or soaked with 20% EtOH (SPE) and boy's urine(SPU), respectively, which are one of processing methods and then heated at 17$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. To isolate the chemical components, Scutellariae Radix with/without processing were extracted with EtOH and EtOH extract was fractionated with ether, ethyl acetate and butanol to give respective fractions. Ether and EtOAc fractions obtained from the processed drug with urine (SPU) were subjected to chromatography to obtainsix components, oroxylin A, Wogonin, chrysin, baicalein, baicalein 7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside and $\beta$-sitosterol 3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside. All the isolated compounds were identified by means of physicochemical and spectroscopic methods (IR, $^1H-NMR,{\;}^13C-NMR$, Mass). By HPLC determination, the changes of the contents for each isolated components from SPE and SPU samples were observed. It was found that the content of nonglycosidic flavones such as oroxylin A, wogonin, chrysin and baicalein was increased markedly, whereas the content of baicalin and baicalein 7-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside was significantly decreased in both samples as compared with those of Scutellariae Radix. When the sample was soaked with boy's urine, the total amount of nonglycosidic flavones was higher than that of processing with 20% EtOH.

Background: The objective was to study the effect of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi ethanol extracts (SBGE) on immune and anti-oxidant function in U14 tumor-bearing mice. Materials and Methods: U14 tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into eight groups: a control group, a cyclophosphamide (CTX) group, three dose groups of SBGEI (high, medium, low), and three dose groups of SBGEII (high, medium, low). After two weeks, the thymus and spleen weight indices of mice bearing U14 cervical cancer were calculated. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) was used to determine the levels of serum IL-2, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-8, and PCNA. MDA activity and SOD activity in plasma were measured with detection kits. Results: In the SBGE groups, thymus weight and spleen weight indices of U14 tumor-bearing mice were significantly higher than in the control group or CTX group (p<0.05). Compared to control group, the levels of serum IL-2 and TNF-${\alpha}$ in U14 tumor-bearing mice increased significantly, whereas the contents of serum IL-8 and PCNA decreased (p<0.05). The activity of SOD increased with the growing dose of SBGE, while the activity of MDA decreased significantly in the highe-rdose groups of SBGE. Conclusions: These findings suggested that SBGE, especially at high dose, 1000 mg/kg, showed significant immune and anti-oxidant effects infU14 tumor-bearing mice, which might be the mechanisms of SBGE inhibition of tumor growth.

Scutellaria Radix, originated from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, is one of the most important medicine in traditional Oriental medicine, and possesses anti-bacterial activity and sedative effects, can be applied in the treatment of a range of conditions including diarrhea and hepatitis. It is reported that chronic global ischemia induces neuronal damage in selective, vulnerable regions of the brain, especially the hippocampus and cerebral cortex. In the present study, to investigate the effect of Scutellaria Radix extract on cerebral disease, the changes of regional cerebral blood flow and pial arterial diameter on ischemia/reperfusion state was determinated by Laser-Doppler Flowmetry and some parameters concerned with oxidative stress also measured. When SRe were administered for five days with the concentration of 100 mg/kg, GSH activity significantly increased. But SRe administeration showed no significant change in lipid peroxidation. When the activities of CAT, Cu, Zn-SOD and GSH were measured, CAT and GSH were activated by SRe administration. When 1 and 3 ㎍/㎖ SRe was applied to the neuronal cell cultures, the quantities of LDH was significantly reduced when compared with cultures treated only with NMDA. Through this study, it can be concluded that the ischemia/reperfusion induced brain stress may have contributed to cerebral damage in rats, and the present study provides clear evidence for the beneficial effect of SRe on ischemia induced brain injury.

천연 갈변저해 소재 발굴을 위해 황금을 열수와 EtOH로 추출한 후, 각각의 추출물에 사과 슬라이스를 침지하여 외관의 변화를 관찰한 결과 황금의 열수와 에탄올 추출물이 사과의 갈변억제에 효과적이었다. 이에 열수와 EtOH 추출물을 각각 상법에 따라 분획하여 $CHCl_3$, EtOAc, $H_2O$ 분획물로 총 6가지 분획물을 얻었다. 이 분획물에 대한 총 페놀과 플라보노이드 함량 및 라디칼 소거능과 환원력 측정, 금속이온 chelating 등을 통하여 항산화 효과와 PPO(polyphenol oxidase) 저해 활성을 측정하였다. 대체적으로 EtOH 추출의 분획물이 열수 추출의 분획물보다 페놀과 플라보노이드 함량 및 항산화 활성이 뛰어났다. 총 페놀의 경우 EtOAc 분획물에서, 플라보노이드의 경우 $CHCl_3$ 분획물에서 가장 높은 함량을 나타내었다. DPPH와 ABTS radical 소거능, FRAP assay 결과 EtOAc 및 $CHCl_3$ 분획물에서 높은 항산화능을 보여 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량과 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 금속이온 chelating 활성은 특이적으로 $H_2O$ 분획물에서 높은 활성이 나타났으나 다른 분획물들 또한 ascorbic acid에 비해 약 3배 이상의 우수한 활성을 나타냈다. PPO 저해 활성의 경우 $CHCl_3$ 분획물에서 높은 저해활성을 나타내어 다른 항산화 측정 결과와 유사한 경향을 보였으며, ascorbic acid에 비해 우수한 PPO 저해 활성을 보였다. 따라서 황금의 EtOAc 및 $CHCl_3$ 분획물은 우수한 항산화 및 PPO 저해 활성으로 인해 갈변저해제로서 효과적이라 판단된다.

황금추출물의 간장기능 회복능을 알아보기 위하여, $CCl_4$로 간중독을 유도한 쥐에게 황금추출물을 급여한 후, 혈액성상, 혈액 내 효소활성치 및 간장 내 전염증성 cytokines의 농도변화를 검토했다. RBC, Hb 및 PCV의 값은 처리군간에 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 백혈구 총수는 대조군과 비교하여 황금 처리군 모두가 낮은 수치를 나타내었으며, 황금추출물 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 neutrophils 및 eosinophile의 비율이 감소하고, lymphocytes 및 monocytes의 비율이 증가하였다. basophils의 구성비는 처리군 별 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. Total protein 농도 및 albumin 농도는 처리군 간에 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 그러나 albumin/globulin 농도 비율은 대조군보다 황금추출물 처리군에서 높았다. GOT, GPT 및 LDH의 효소활성치들은 모두가 대조군보다 황금추출물 처리군에서 낮은 수치를 나타내었으며, 황금추출물 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 하락하는 경향을 보였다. 간장 내 IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 및 TNF-$\alpha$의 농도는 대조군보다 황금추출물 처리군 모두가 낮은 값을 나타내었으며, IL-10의 농도는 대조군보다 황금추출물 처리군 모두가 높은 값을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 황금추출물은 간장기능회복에 효과를 나타내는 기능성 물질을 내재하고 있음을 시사해 준다.

Baicalein and baicalin are flavonoid compounds isolated from medicinal herb Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Labiatae) and have been known to possess antiviral activities. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of baicalein and baicalin on the three distinctive enzymatic activities of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) integrase-endonucleolytic, integration, and disintegration activities. Both compounds inhibited the three enzymatic activities in a dose-dependent manner. The 50％ inhibitory concentrations of baicalein and baicalin for endonucleolytic activities of HIV-1 integrase were 4.4$\pm$3.3 and 25.9$\pm$4.0$\mu$M, respectively. In general, baicalein exhibited nearly 6- to 10-fold stronger inhibition than baicalin for the three enzymatic activities. These data demonstrate that baicalein or baicalin can be used as a leading compound to develop anti-AIDS chemotherapeutic agents targeting to the HIV-1 integrase.
