The bark of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica(Ulmaceae) has been described in traditional books to have diuretic and laxative actions, to ameliorate edematous disease, and to be used in insomnia and gastointestinal disorders. Thus this study was carried out to elucidate some of the pharmacological activities of the plant extracts. The results obtained in tills experiment indicated that its methanol extract elicited remarkable inhibition of HCI.ethanol induced gastric lesion, Shay ulceration and gastric secretion. However, it showed no anti-inflammatory action. The acute toxicity of the extract was low, that is, the minimum lethal dose was more than 2000 mg/kg by oral administration in mice. The systematic fractionation of the methanol extract by hexane, ether, ethylacetate and butanol resulted in potent prevention of gastric erosion in butanol and water fractions.

It is a gel type high functional toothpaste containing vitamin C, E, propolis extract and the rest of herb with a nanoemulsion state. Vitamin C, E is known as the material with an eminent anti-oxidation effect. Propolis is known as the material with an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effect. We have been succeeding in making nanoemulsion of vitamin C, E and propolis through the high pressure homogenizer using stable oil and lecithin and the gel type high functional tooth paste were made from nanoemulsion of vitamin C, E and propolis. We observed the process of wound protecting effect and cure effect for a wound of soft tissue, gingival tissue and mucous membrane showing ulcer and inflammation in oral cavity after applying a gel type high functional toothpaste to patient. As a result, the wound were healed very fast and any side effects were not shown. We confirmed that a gel type high functional toothpaste with nanoemulsion of vitamin C, E and propolis extract has good effect not only for wound healing but also for treatment of ulcer-like lesion in oral cavity. So we report our cases with review of literatures.

Frequently used for humans as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, naproxen has been known to induce ulcerative gastric lesions. The present study was undertaken to investigate the in vivo therapeutic effect of astaxanthin, isolated from a Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous mutant, against naproxen-induced gastric antral ulceration in rats. The rats were treated with three doses of astaxanthin [1, 5, and 25 mg/kg body weight (B.W.), respectively] once daily for 2 weeks after pretreatment of 80 mg of naproxen/kg B.W. twice daily for 3 days, while the control rats received only 80 mg of naproxen/kg B.W. twice daily for 3 days. The oral administration of astaxanthin (1,5, and 25 mg/kg B.W.) showed a curative effect against naproxen (80 mg/kg B.W.)-induced gastric antral ulcer and reduced the elevated lipid peroxide level in gastric mucosa. In addition, astaxanthin treatment resulted in significant increase in the activities of radical scavenging enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. A histologic examination clearly proved that acute gastric mucosal lesion induced by naproxen nearly disappeared after the astaxanthin treatment. These results suggest that astaxanthin eliminated the lipid peroxides and free radicals induced by naproxen and may be a potential candidate for remedy of gastric ulceration.

Antacid(AM, 600 mg/kg=aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and simethicone with a ratio of 1 : 1 : 0.1) and aceglutamide aluminium(AGA, 263 mg/kg)-Effect of the combined preparation containing on the gastric mucosal hexosamine, sialic acid, and aluminium contents adhered to the gastric wall of the rat was investigated. Severe ulcers were produced in rats by injecting of $30\;{\mu}l$ acetic acid(30%) into the subserosal layer of one position in the corpus. When given orally for 15 consecutive days, AM(1,200 mg/kg), AGA(525, 1,050 mg/kg), and the combined preparation significantly decreased the ulcer area. AGA(525, 1,050 mg/kg) and the combined preparation also increased the amount of hexosamine and sialic acid in the intact and ulcerated areas. On the other hand, the contents of hexosamine and sialic acid were not affected by AM (600, 1,200 mg/kg). The amount of aluminium adhered to the gastric wall of the rat was higher in the combined preparation when compared to the AM(600 mg/kg) and AGA(263 mg/kg). The aluminium contents adhered may play an important role protecting mucosa from aggresive action of gastric juice and potenting defensive factors through the increase of mucosa-forming components by AGA.

본 연구에서는 150 mM HCl/60 % ethanol로 급성 위염을 유발한 마우스에서 증숙 시간에 따른 홍삼의 위염 보효 효과에 대해 살펴보고자 하였다. 백삼과 홍삼의 증숙 시간에 따른 성분을 분석한 결과 사포닌, total polyphenol과 total flavonoid의 총 함량이 증숙 시간에 따라 증가하였고 6시간 증숙한 홍삼에서 가장 높은 함량을 보였다. 또한 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl와 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical 소거능 실험을 통해 항산화 활성을 측정한 결과 RG 6에서 가장 높은 활성을 나타냈다. In vitro 실험 결과를 바탕으로 시료를 선택하였고 in vivo 실험을 진행하였다. 급성 위염 마우스 모델에 백삼과 6시간 증숙한 홍삼을 투여하였을 때, RG 6에서 위 점막 손상의 개선을 육안적으로 확인할 수 있었으며, 혈액에서 측정한 ROS 수치도 대조군에 비해 유의적인 감소를 보였다. 또한 염증성 사이토카인을 확인한 결과 대조군에 비해 RG6에서 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과들을 종합해 볼 때 증숙 시간에 따른 홍삼은 급성 위염 유발 마우스 모델에서 위염 보호 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriense (CJ) is used as a folk medicine for diuretic, arthritis, dyspepsia, and bleeding in Korea. Until now, more than fifteen kinds of CJ were identified and among them, Cirsium japonicum var. nakaianum Nakai was selected as experimental material. Both that from The Medical Herb Garden of Seoul National University located at Gayang-dong, Koyang city and native that from a hillock near Dangjin, Chungnam were collected and analyzed to determine whether it is varied in efficacy on their habitats. Extracts and fractions of CJ had a strong effect of antibacterial activity on H. pylori and antioxidant effects. And the CJ from Garden and Dangjin were showed to be more efficient in acute gastritis through the HCl${\cdot}$ethanol-induced gastric lesion test and chronic gastritis through the indomethacin-induced gastric lesion test, respectively. This study proved that the effects of CJ are varied by their habitats. Also, these results suggest that the CJ has potentials for use as functional food and medicine.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylorl) infection is now established as the major pathogenic factor in chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. in addition, there is accumulating evidence that H. pylori plays an important role in the process of gastric carcinogenesis. On the other hand, oriental traditional medicines have been used for stomach disease for thousands of years. In the present study, methanol extract from the stem bark of Magnolia sieboldii (M. sieboldii) and its components were investigated on their inhibitory effects against urease activity and growth of H. pylori in vitro. The methanol extract of M. sieboldii significantly inhibited the growth of H. pylori ATCC 43504 at 5 mg/ml. From the further fractionation, the chloroform fraction inhibited the bacterial growth dose-dependently. Among four fractions separated from the chloroform fraction by silica gel column chromatography, MS-C-2 was the most potent. Costunolide was isolated from the MS-C-2 subtraction by preparative TLC and recrystallization using n-hexane. Anti-H. pylori effect of costunolide was investigated using one commercial strain (H. pylori ATCC 43504) and three clinical strains (H. pylon 4, 43, 82548). Costunolide exhibited potent anti-H. pylori activity, and the MIC was around $100-200{\mu}g/ml$. However, costunolide had no inhibitory effect of H. pylori urease activity at the concentration used for the growth inhibition assay. From these results, we conclude that costunolide inhibits the, growth of H. pylori by the independent manner of H. pylori urease inhibition.

This study was conducted to compare the volatile flavor compounds found in the leaves of 15 taxa of Korean native Chrysanthemum species. The volatile flavor compounds from the taxa were collected using a simultaneous steam distillation and extraction technique and were analyzed using gas chromatography/mass selective detector (GC/MSD). A total of 45 volatile flavor compounds were identified with six functional groups: 14 alcohols, 4 ketones, 19 hydrocarbons, 5 esters, 2 acids, and 1 aldehyde. The main functional group in 15 taxa of Chrysanthemum species was alcohols, accounting for 28.7% of volatile flavor compounds, followed by ketones (21.2%) and hydrocarbons (13.2%). Camphor, which is known for its antimicrobial properties, was the most abundant volatile compound (30%) in C. zawadskii ssp. latilobum and var. leiophyllum. In particular, C. indicum subspecies and C. boreale contained ${\alpha}$-thujone, which has outstanding anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, and anti-diabetic efficacies. C. indicum var. albescens could be used in perfumes, since it showed 21 times more camphene than C. indicum. In addition, C. indicum var. acuta contained a fairly high content of 1,8-cineole, which has an inhibitory effect on mutagenesis. C. lineare contained only pentadecanoic acid compounds, whereas other taxa hexadecanoic acids. Overall, the Korean native Chrysanthemum species had considerable variation in volatile flavor compounds in their leaves. This study provides a good indication of specific potential use for various applications.
