This experimental study was designed to investigate the effects of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus $S_{EEM}$ extracts following gamma-ray irradiation on the change of weight, the serum total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid, total lipid, phospholipid level in obese mice induced by high fat diet, and the change of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and blood pressure (BP) in normal rats. Experimental materials were as follows ; 10AS was the bark powder of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus $S_{EEM}$ stems which was exposed in 10 kGy electron beam, 10AS was the bark powder of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus $S_{EEM}$ roots which was exposed in 10 kGy electron beam, 100S was the bark powder of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus $S_{EEM}$ stems which was exposed in 100 kGy electron beam, Experimental groups were as follows ; Normal group was fed with normal diet and administered with distilled water during 5 weeks, Control group was fed with high fat diet and administered with distilled water during 5 weeks, Sample A group was fed with high fat diet and administered with 10AS of 300 mg/kg/mouse/day during 5 weeks, Sample B group was fed with high fat diet and administered with 10AR of 300 mg/kg/mouse/day during 5 weeks, Sample C group was fed with high fat diet and administered with 100AS of 300 mg/kg/mouse/day during 5 weeks. The results were as follows ; Sample A group, Sample B group and Sample C group were significantly decreased body weight and the serum LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, total lipid level in comparison with Control group. Sample A group, Sample B group and Sample C group were significantly increased the serum HDL-cholesterol level in comparison with Control group. Sample B group and Sample C group were significantly decreased the serum total cholesterol, free fatty acid and phospholipid level in comparison with Control group. This results were suggested that all experimental materials were able to be used for the obesity. 10AS did not changed rCBF and MABP in a dose-dependent manner. 10AR significantly increased rCBR in a dose-dependent manner, and BP did not change in a dose-dependent manner. 100AS decreased rCBF and BP in a dose-dependent manner. This results were suggested that 10 AR significantly increased rCBF by dilating pial arterial diameter. According to above results, the authors suggested that 10AR was able to be used for the obesity and ischemic disease.

결과적으로 본 연구에서 서로 다른 두 집단(RTG, ATG)의 비교시 저항성 트레이닝 집단(RTG)보다 유산소 트레이닝 집단(ATG)에서 산화질소(NO) 농도가 더 높게 나타났으며, 이는 지속적인 유산소 형태의 트레이닝이 간헐적인 저항성 형태의 트레이닝 보다 더 많은 산화질소(NO)가 생성 된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 심박수(HR)와 혈압(BP), 평균동맵압(MAP)의 감소에도 저항성 트레이닝(RT)보다는 유산소 트레이닝(AT)이 효과적이라는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 유산소 트레이닝(AT)에 비해 저항성 트레이닝(RT)에서 유의하진 않았지만 산화질소(NO) 농도가 증가된 것은 주목할 만한 결과이다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때, 단기간일 지라도 혈관이완 및 자율신경계 도움을 줄 수 있는 것은 유산소 트레이닝(AT) 임을 알 수 있었고 이는 일반적으로 운동을 선택할 시(근력과 근비대를 제외한 운동) 도움을 줄 수 있다고 사료된다. 또한 추후 연구에서는 12주 이상의 장기간의 트레이닝을 통해 저항성 트레이닝(RT)이 혈관이완의 직접적인 척도인 산화질소(NO) 농도에 관한 연구가 필요시 된다.

The study aims to identify the mechanism (s) underlying the altered vasodilatory responses of the pial artery of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) under a hypothesis that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) exerts a modulator role in the autoregulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF). The animals were divided into four groups: 1) Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR), 2) Wistar rats (WR), 3) SHR with high blood pressure $(BP{\ge}150\;mmHg),$ and 4) SHR with normotensive BP $({\le}150\;mmHg).$ The lower limit of CBF autoregulation in SHR shifted to a higher BP $(82.8{\pm}9.3\'mmHg,\;P<0.05)$ than that in SDR $(58.9{\pm}5.7\;mmHg)$. In SHR, whether the BP levels were high or normotensive, the vasodilator responses to a stepwise hypotension were significantly attenuated unlike with SDR and WR. When artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) containing capsaicin $(3{\times}10^{-7}\;M)$ was suffused over the cortical surface, a transient increase in pial arterial diameter was observed in the SHR with high or normotensive BP. In contrast, SDR and WR showed a large increase in diameter, and the increase was sustained for over 10 minutes. In line with these results, the basal releases of CGRP-like immunoreactivity (CGRP-LI) in the isolated pial arteries from SHR with high and normotensive BP were $12.5{\pm}1.4\;and\;9.8{\pm}2.8\;fmole/mm^2/60\;min\;(P<0.05)$, while those from SDR and WR were $25.5{\pm}3.1\;and\;24.6{\pm}3.1\;fmole/mm^2/60\;min,$ respectively. The isolated basilar arteries showed similar results to those of the pial arteries in SHR. Thus, it is summarized that, in the SHR, the reduced autoregulatory vasodilator responses to stepwise hypotension and capsaicin may be, in part, ascribed to the decreased release of CGRP from the perivascular sensory nerve fibers of the pial arteries, and that altered vasomotor activity in SHR may not be related with the hypertensive tone.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of leg crossing on reducing orthostatic hypotension and orthostatic hypotension symptoms in hemodialysis patients. Methods: A one-group pretest-posttest design was used. A total of 40 post-hemodialysis adult patients were enrolled, excluding the case of intradialysis hypotension, unbalance of standing with leg crossing, adding antihypertensive medications. Blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were measured in supine and standing positions. After a week, BP and HR were measured in supine and standing with leg crossing position. Orthostatic hypotension symptoms were also measured by self-reported structured questionnaire in standing without leg crossing and with leg crossing position. Results: We found out that systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure increased significantly in standing with crossing leg position applied (p=.006, p=.001, p=.006). However, presences of orthostatic hypotension symptoms were not significantly decreased in standing with leg crossing position (p=.500, p=.318, p=.306, p=.241, p=.356, p=.500, p=.241, p=.308). Conclusion: This study shows that leg crossing is effective for reducing orthostatic hypotension without additional cost or instruments. Leg crossing as one of the preventive interventions to reduce orthostatic hypotension is easier and simpler to be implemented in hemodialysis patients.

Objective : Bangpungtongseongsan(BTS) has been used in oriental medicine for many centuries as a prescription for a heat syndrome of apoplexy. The effects of BTS on the vascular system are not well known. This study is designed to identify the effects of BTS on the regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), arterial blood pressure and action mechanism in mice. Methods : We measured the change of rCBF and BP by BTS. Secondly, we investigated changes of rCBF and BP for 30 minutes interval after venous inject 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0mg/kg each density BTS infusion into mice, which were premanaged with methylene blue(10mg/kg, i.v), indomethacin(3mg/kg, i.v.), propranolo(3mg/kg, i.v.) for 30minutes. Results : rCBF increased significantly by BTS in a dose-dependent and BP was not affected by BTS in mice. Pretreatment with methylene blue significantly inhibited rCBF increased by BTS and aceelrated BP not affected by BTS. Pretreatment with indomethacin significantly inhibited rCBF increased by BTS and inhibited BP not affected by BTS. Conclusion : These results show that BTS causes the increasement of rCBF and non-change of BP. The action mechanism is related to prostaglandid activated by cyclooxygenase.

Cheonghunhwadam-tang have been used in oriental medicine for many centuries as a therapeutic agent of vertigo by wind, fire and phlegm. CHT Gamypang(CTG) was CHT adding Aurantii Fructus(AF). The effects of CTG on the regional cerebral blood f1ow(rCBF) and mean arterial blood pressure(MABP) is not known. The mechanical Study of CTG on the cerebral hemodynamics is not known too. Therefore, purpose of this Study was to investigate effects of CTG on the rCBF and MABP, mechanism of CTG on the cerebral hemodynamics in rats. The changes of rCBF and BP was determinated by Laser-Doppler Flowmetry(LDF). The results were as follows ; CTG extract was significantly decreased rCBF in a dose-dependent, but the change of MABP was not shown. Pretreatment with propranolol(3mg/kg, i.v.) was significantly increased CTG(10 mg/kg, i.v.) induced decrease of rCBF. Pretreatment with indomethacin(3mg/kg, i.v.) and methylene blue(10㎍/kg, i.v.) were increased CTG induced decrease of rCBF too. This results suggest that the mechanism of CTG is mediated by adrenergic β - receptor, guanylate cyclase and cyclooxygenase.

GABA계가 뇌내의 교감신경계기능에 영향을 주어서 혈압조절에 관여함이 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 마취가토에서 GABA계가 두개내압증가에 의한 혈압상승에 관여하는가를 조사하였다. 두개내압증가에 의한 승압은 측뇌실내 muscimol (GABA 작용약)이나 clonidine $({\alpha}_2$-작용약) 전처리후에는 볼 수 없었다. 측뇌실내 yohimbine $({\alpha}_2$-길항약)으로 일으킨 고혈압은 두개내압증가를 하여도 더 이상 상승하지 않았으나, 측뇌실내 bicuculline (GABA 길항약)으로 일으킨 고혈압은 두개내압증가로 더욱 상승하였다. Bicuculline은 muscimol이나 clonidine 저혈압에서는 승압을 일으켰으나 yohimbine이나 두개내압증가에 의한 고혈압에서는 무효였다. Yohimbine은 clonidine 저혈압은 상승시켰으나 muscimol 저혈압에 있어서는 무효였다. Yohimbine은 두개내압증가에 따른 승압상태는 더 올리지 못하였으나 bicuculline 승압상태는 더욱 상승시켰다. Muscimol은 bicuculline과의 길항성이외에 yohimbine 승압을 억제함을 알았으며 yohimbine 승압에 GABA계가 관여함을 추측할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험결과로 두개내압증가에 따른 승압상승은 (1) ${\alpha}_{2}$-수용체, (2) bicuculline-감수성 GABA 수용체, (3) yohimbine-감수성인 clonidine이 작용하는 GABA계 부위의 세가지 방법으로 억제성인 교감신경기능을 불활성화하여 일어나는 것으로 추론하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the antinociceptive effects of ginsenosides on toothache. c-Fos immunoreactive (IR) neurons were examined after noxious intrapulpal stimulation (NS) by intrapulpal injection of 2 M KCl into upper and lower incisor pulps exposed by bone cutter in Sprague Dawley rats. The number of Fos-IR neurons was increased in the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis (Vc) and the transitional region between Vc and subnucleus interpolaris (Vi) by NS to tooth. The intradental NS raised arterial blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR). The number of Fos-IR neurons was also enhanced in thalamic ventral posteromedial nucleus (VPMN) and centrolateral nucleus (CLN) by NS to tooth. The intradental NS increased the number of Fos-IR neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) and rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus (SON) and paraventricular nucleus (PVN), central cardiovascular regulation centers. Ginsenosides reduced the number of c-Fos-IR increased by NS to tooth in the trigeminal Vc and thalamic VPMN and CLN. Naloxone, an opioid antagonist, did not block the effect of ginsenoside on the number of Fos-IR neurons enhanced by NS to tooth in the trigeminal Vc and thalamic VPMN and CLN. Ginsenosides ameliorated arterial BP and HR raised by NS to tooth and reduced the number of Fos-IR neurons increased by NS to tooth in the NTS, RVLM, hypothalamic SON, and PVN. These results suggest that ginsenosides have an antinociceptive effect on toothache through non-opioid system and attenuates BP and HR increased by NS to tooth.

Cardiopulmonary depression of long-term constant rate infusion (CRI) administration of multiple analgesic drugs is important, especially in critically ill dogs. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of lidocaine, ketamine or combined lidocaine-ketamine combination CRI treatment on vital signs and left ventricular (LV) function in healthy dogs. Six adult Beagle dogs were administered either ketamine (initial loading dose of 0.5 mg/kg followed by $10{\mu}g/kg/min$ CRI), lidocaine (initial loading dose of 2 mg/kg followed by 0.025 mg/kg/min CRI), or combined lidocaine-ketamine intravenously. Arterial blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), body temperature (BT) and echocardiographic LV dimensions were measured before administration of medications, immediately after administration of drugs, and then every 10 min for 2 h. There were no significant changes in HR, RR, BT and BP after the administration of either lidocaine CRI, ketamine CRI, or combined lidocaine and ketamine CRI. There were also no significant changes in LV dimensions and stroke volume. The results revealed that treatment with either lidocaine, ketamine or combined lidocaine-ketamine may not cause cardiopulmonary suppression in healthy dogs.

본 연구는 고혈압전단계자들에 대한 지속적인 건 스트레치시 시간에 따른 생리학적 반응을 분석하여 정상혈압자와 고혈압전단계자에 대한 EPR의 한 요소인 기계적 수용기가 혈압 및 혈역학 반응에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 검토하였다. 그 결과, 안정 시와 시간에 따른 혈압 반응은 고혈압전단계자에 있어 SBP, MAP가 평균 20sec에서 통계적으로 가장 높은 경향을 보였으며(p<0.05), 정상혈압자에서는 SBP, DBP, MAP가 평균 45sec에서 가장 높은 경향을 보였다(p<0.05). 이는 고혈압 전단계자의 지속적인 수동적 건 스트레치 시 정상혈압자에 비해 Group III mechanoreceptors의 역기능에 따른 상승된 혈압 반응이 초기에 나타내었다고 사료된다. 또한 혈역학 반응에서 안정 시와 비교하여 지속적인 수동적건 스트레치 시 고혈압전단계자에서의 HR, SV, CO, TPR 모두 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으나 정상혈압자에서 SV, CO가 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 이는 CO, SV, HR, TPR이 정상혈압자에 비해 고혈압전단계자에 있어 높은 경향을 나타내었지만, 혈역학 반응은 본 연구를 통해 차이를 보이지 않아 앞으로 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
