In Sasang medicine, humen are classified into four constitutions which are Taeyang, Soyang. Taeum and Soum. Depending on each different constitution, the clinical and pharmacological application for the same disease might be different. In this study, genomic DNA of different constitutions(Taeum, Soyang and Soum) were analyzed by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism(RFLP) to provide scientific and objective references for Sasang classification. The DNA polymorphism for each constitution detected as differences in the length of DNA fragments, after digestion with restriction enzyme Hae III, was investigated using YNH24 as DNA probe. The allele size of Taeum, Soyang and Soum group detected by YNH24 ranged from 1.3 to 3.8 kb, 1.5 to 3.9 kb and 1.3 to 4.6 kb, respectively. However, the allele size distribution of YNH24 loci of different constitutions was shown to be too variable to be classified as 3 different constitution groups investigated. For further study, it is suggested that the number of each constitution samples for RFLP analysis should be increased and statistical analysis of the allele size distribution should be carried out.

It is very important problem that exactly distinguish constitution, in Sasang constitutional Medicine. But, it is careless that discuss the propriety of 'Sasang constitution unchangeability theory(四象體質 不變論)'. The foundation of Sasang constitution unchangeability theory is the sentence in DongUi SuSae BoWon Sa-dan theory(東醫壽世保元 四端論) : "The Organ system of Taeyang(太陽), Taeum(太陰), Soyang (少陽) and Soeum(少陰) is the variation of YinYang(陰陽), is firm nature and is unnecessary agreement. (太少陰陽之臟局 陰陽之變化也 天稟之已定 固無可論)". But, the foundation of Sasang constitution unchangeability theory contradict the theory that Organ system(臟腑) is made by deviation of emotions(joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure :喜怒哀樂) or temperament(性情). Because these emotions is revealed after birth(後天), the deviation of Organs system made by deviation of emotions is not innate, is acquired after birth. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the opinion that Sasang constitution is variable after birth. The conclusion of our study is that Sasang constitution can be variable after birth.
