The following results have been obtained ; 1. Dokwhaljiwhang-tang showed to have an inhibitory effect on the smooth muscle contraction of the isolated ileum by acetylcholene chloride and barium chloride. 2. Dokwhaljiwhang-tang showed to have an inhibitory effect on the contraction of the gastric fundus-strip by acetylcholine chloride and barium chloride. 3. The preventive effect was recognized on the pylorus-ligated ulcer, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang. 4. The preventive effect was not recognized on the indomethacine -induced ulcer, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang. 5. The inhibitory effects on the secretion gastric juice, free acidity were recognized, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang 6. The transport ability in the small intestine was increased, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang. 7. The transport ability in the large intestine was increased, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang. 8. The analgesic effect was recognized, by administration of Dokwhaljiwhang-tang. 9.

Objective : Allergic disease, a very common chronic illness that affects all ages of patients, has been well characterized as an IgE-dependent immunologic response. Recently, interest has grown about the late inflammatory reaction as well as the early one characterized by IgE and mast cells in allergic disease. The purpose of this study was to find the anti-inflammatory effect of Taeeumjowui-tang (Taiyintiaowei-tang) in allergic reaction. Methods : The experiment was performed using Raw 264.7 cells pretreated with Taeeumjowui-tang contents extracts. The results were measured for different concentrations of Taeeumjowui-tang extracts (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml): the toxicity and proliferation of cells by MTT analysis, LPS-induced NO production using Griess reagent and IL-6/ TNF-${\alpha}$ production, which is a significant criteria for diagnosing allergic reaction. Results : No toxicity of Taeeumjowui-tang (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml) on Raw 264.7 cells was found after 24 hours incubation. LPS-induced NO production was reduced after treatment with Taeeumjowui-tang (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml)(P<0.001). IL-6 decreased only at $100{\mu}g$/ml(P<0.05). TNF-${\alpha}$ production decreased only at $300{\mu}g$/ml, but still statistically insignificant. There was no relationship between any components of Taeeumjowui-tang alone and inhibition of NO production. Conclusions : These data suggest that Taeeumjowui-tang has anti-inflammatory effects in allergic reaction.

1. Background: This is the first documented study on the four medications for the Mangeum symptomatology (亡陰證) in the Soyangin disease category. The four medications, Hyeongbangsabaek-san (荊防瀉白散), Jeoryeongchajeonja-tang (猪苓車前子湯), Hyeongbangjihwang-tang (荊防地黃湯), and Hwalseokgosam-tang (滑石苦蔘湯), were comparatively analyzed on their compositive principles and respective symptomatologies. 2. Methods: Previous literature, including classical works on earlier Sasang Constitutional Medicine (different editions of Donguisusebowon and Dongmuyugo), were reviewed for relevant material on the Mangeum medications. 3. Results and Conclusions: 1) Hyeongbangsabaek-san (荊防瀉白散) is used in pathologies of early stages of invasion of the internal heat in the lower-most burn-center (locus related to the Kidney system). 2) Jeoryeongchajeonja-tang (猪苓車前子湯) is used when pathogenic dampness-heat invades the lower-most burn-center (locus related to the Kidney system). 3) Hyeongbangjihwang-tang (荊防地黃湯) is used to treat deficient heat involving injury of the lower-most burn-center (locus related to the Kidney system). 4) Hwalseokgosam-tang (滑石苦蔘湯) is used when the lower-most burn-center (locus related to the Kidney system) is in the early stages of exhaustion, expecially accompanied by concomitant dampness-heat. 5) The Mangeum symptomatology (亡陰證) was fully understood only after the completion of the 1901 Sinchuk edition (辛丑本) of Donguisusebowon (東醫壽世保元).
