한의학에 있어서 음양의 조절은 매우 중요하다. 숙지황은 음허를 치료하는 주약이며, 부자는 양허를 치료하는 주약이다. 한의학에서 신성고혈압의 발생은 음허와 관련이 있다고 하였다. 본 연구는 실험적 신성고혈압과 자연발증고혈압 백서에 숙지황과 부자 전탕액을 투여 후 혈압의 변동과 혈장 renin 활성도, aldosterone 및 심방이뇨호르몬 (atrial natriuretic hormone)의 변동을 관찰하였다. 숙지황 투여후 실험적 신성고혈압 백서의 혈압은 감소하였다. 부자 전탕액 투여 후 자연발증고혈압 백서의 혈압 상승이 억제되었다. 숙지황 및 부자 전탕액 투여 후 자연발증고혈압 백서의 혈장 renin 활성도는 감소하였다. 부자 전탕액 투여 후 신성고혈압 백서의 혈장 ANP 농도는 감소하였다. 부자 전탕액의 혈압강하 작용은 ANP 및 aldosterone 농도의 변동과 관련이 있다고 사료된다.

Modulatory effect of cAMP-PKA system on inhibitory- and excitatory herbs-induced ion currents were investigated by nystatin-perforated patch clamp method under voltage-clamp condition. Ion currents induced by Bupleuri radix and Coptidis rhizoma were not affected by cAMP-PKA system. Ion current induced by Ecliptae herba was partially inhibited by cAMP-PKA system. Ion currents induced by Aconiti tuber and Boshniakiae herba were inhibitory modulated and ion current induced by Zingiberis rhizoma was excitatory modulated by cAMP-PKA system. Modulation of cAMP-PKA system on ion currents induced by Ginseng radix was fluctuated. In this results, it can be seen generally that excitatory herbs-induced ion currents were modulated by cAMP-PKA system while cAMP-PKA system did not affect inhibitory herbs-induced ion currents.

In Yoshimasu Todo (吉益東洞)'s book, the doctors' commitment is said to attack the poison of illness and this can be realized only by using the poison of medicine. From this point of view, he had denied the preceding medicine books, since there was no distinction between the food that raise the body and the poison that attack the poison of illness in the preceding medicine books. In addition, Every medicine has the respective results and one medicine treats one disease, otherwise, in the preceding medicine books, one medicine deals with more than one illness and also they have denied that the characters of medicines are cold or hot because they couldn't be proven by tasting or seeing.

In order to search for protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors as therapy of type 2 diabetes and obesity from Korean traditional prescriptions, we selected 58 traditional prescriptions based on a review of the Korean traditional medicine books. The hot water extracts of Korean traditional prescriptions were screened for the inhibitory activity against PTP1B. Among the tested extracts, water extracts of Jakgamhwangsinbu-tang, Seonbanghwalmyung-eum, and Takreeonjoong-tang showed relatively good inhibitory activity against PTP1B at the concentration of $30{\mu}g/ml$. Additionally, we evaluated PTP1B inhibitory effect for each herbal ingredient and composition in Jakgamhwangsinbu-tang (芍甘黃辛附湯). Of the tested ingredients from this herbal medicine, water extracts of Paeoniae Radix rubra and Rhei Rhizoma, and ethanol extracts of Paeoniae Radix alba, Rhei Rhizoma, Asiasari Radix, and Aconiti Tuber showed good PTP1B inhibitory effect. Herbal compositions composed of these active herbal ingredients exhibited significant activity for PTP1B inhibition over 70% at $7.5{\mu}g/ml$.

Objectives: The prevalence of Parkinson's disease is on an upward trend along with an increase in the aging population but there is no available treatment that halts the progression of neurodegeneration. This study reports a numerical analysis on Donguibogam and suggests novel herbal drugs, which have never been researched before but found to be deemed effective in this study. Methods: Referring to 71 Korean medicine symptom terms that represent the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, 4170 prescriptions described in Donguibogam were classified into two groups based on whether their main effects were effective for Parkinson's disease or not. Comparing the two groups, the chi-square test was performed to select statistically significant herbs, while the t-test, Wilcoxon test, and descriptive statistics were performed to determine the appropriate dose. Results: One hundred and twenty-seven prescriptions effective for Parkinson's disease were identified. The chi-square test determined 17 herbs that are effective for symptomatic treatment. Among the medicinal herbs, the authors suggest Osterici seu Notopterygii Radix et Rhizoma, Ephedrae Herba, Aconiti Tuber, Myrrha, Sinomeni Caulis et Rhizoma, and Aconiti Kusnezoffii Tuber as herbal candidates that have never been studied for Parkinson's disease. Through the statistical tests, it was judged that the mean value of the dose of the entire prescription was the appropriate dose for each herb. Conclusions: Seventeen herbs were selected for Parkinson's disease and the appropriate daily dose were calculated. Furthermore, this study presented a new process that applies a statistical method to traditional medical literature and preselecting herbs deemed effective for specific diseases.

Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the single oral toxicity of HBX-6 in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Methods : Twenty SD rats were randomly assigned to four groups of 5 rats each and were administrated singly to female and male SD rats, as an oral dose of 2000 mg/kg. HBX-6 is a newly combined Korean herbal medicine formula 30 % Ethanol extract derived from The Dongui Bogam. Now we are developing the prescription for the aim of improving benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) without undesirable side effects. HBX-6 is composed of nine medicinal herbs: Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata, Corni Fructus, Cistanchis Herba, Psoraleae Semen, Dendrobii Herba, Morindae Radix, Cuscutae Semen, Trigonellae Semen, Foeniculi Fructus. Animals were monitored for the mortality and changes in the body weight, clinical signs, gross observation and necropsy findings for the 14 days according to "Standard for Toxicity Study of Pharmaceuticals" of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) guideline and "Acute Oral Toxicity - Fixed Dose Procedure" of OECD Test Guideline. Results : We could not find any mortality. Compared with the control group, significant weight change was not observed in the experimental group. After administration, the more common symptoms were not observed. There were no gross abnormalities in all cases. Conclusions : Taken together, these results suggest that the approximate lethal dose of HBX-6 in both female and male SD rats were considered as over 2000 mg/kg.
