In order to investigate the effect of Sojagangki-tang on imuno-activity. the author performaed this experimental study. Delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) and rosette forming cells (RFC) for cell-mediated immune response, hemagglutinin (HA) titers, hemolysin (HL) titers for humoral immune response, Carbon clearance for phagocytic function of MPS (mononuclear phagocyte system) were measured in ICR mice. The results were summurized as follows: Delayed tape hypersensitivity was increased with statistical significance in the administrated solid extract of Sojagangki-tang treated group as compared with the control group. Hemagglutinin titers were increased with statistical significance in the administrated solid extract of Sojagangki-tang treated group as compared with the control group. Hemolysin titers were increased with statistical significance in the administrated solid extract of Sojagangki-tang treated group as compared with the control group. Number of RFC was increased with statistical significance in the administrated solid extract of Sojagangki-tang treated group as compared with the control group. Carbon clearance was increased with statistical significance in the administrated solid extract of Sojagangki-tang treated group as compared with the control group. Through in vivo experimental study in ICR mice Sojagangki-tang enhences the cell-mediated immmune response, the humoral immune respose. According to the above results, I think that Sojagangki-tang could be used for allergy asthma and lung damage patients.

A 15 years old castrated male Pug dog was referred with chief complaint of cough, described as a goose honk. He was diagnosed into of tracheal collapse by clinical signs and radiography. He was received by injection- AP with butorphanol (0.15 mg/kg, SID) at BL13, LU01, LU05, LU06, LU07, LU09 and CV22 for 10 days, and he was also received by injection-AP with butorphanol (0.40 mg/kg, SID) at BL13, LU01 and CV22 for 9 days. The patient was given with Sochungryong-Tang (0.5 g/head, TID) for 7 days, and he was additionally given with Sojagangki-Tang (1 ml/kg, TID) for 12 days. Cough was not detected at all, and tracheal diameter was more increased than that of session 1 on radiograph at session 19. Cough was not detected at all and tracheal diameter at follow-up study of three month later was more dilated than that of session 19. In conclusion, the present patient was a case with canine tracheal collapse which showed favorable therapeutic response by injection-AP with butorphanol combined by administration of herbal medicine.
