우리는 경험적으로 인삼이 훌륭한 치료효과로서 항종양효과가 있다는 것을 알고 있다. 인삼으로부터 종양발육 억제효과가 있는 물질을 분리하는 과정에서 우리는 새로운 타입의 항종양 물질을 발견하였다. 이물질은 Panax ginseng C.A. Mayer의 분말로부터 분리하였는데 이 분말은 일본에서 홍삼분말이라는 이름으로 의약품으로서 여러가지 질병치료에 사용되고 있다. IR, $^{1}H,\;^{13}C-NMR$ 및 MS에 의한 분석결과로 이 물질은 panaxytriol로 동정 되었다. 고려홍삼에서 분리된 panaxytriol은 in vitro 시험에서 몇가지의 인체암세포와 악성백혈병 세포의 성장을 억제하였다. 비록 panaxytriol에 의한 세포성장억제에 대한 상세한 작용기전은 알려져있지 않으나 panaxytriol의 효과는 처리시간보다는 농도 의존성이 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

장내세균 Bifidobacterium longum에 의한 대장균성 설사증의 주 원인균인 E. coli $A_2$의 생육저해를 혐기적 조건에서 조사한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 한국 성인으로부터 분리ㆍ동정한 Bif. longum SKD-2001은 E. coli $A_2$의 생육을 저해시키는 생육저해 작용을 가지고 있었다. Bifidus 균제제에서 분리ㆍ동정한 Bif. longum SKD-2004도 역시 E. coli $A_2$의 생육을 저해하였다. pH가 저하됨에 따라서 생육저해가 있는 것으로 보아 E. coli $A_2$의 생육저해는 Bif., longum이 생산한 lactic acid와 acetic acid에 의해 배양액의 pH가 저하됨으로써 나타나는 것으로 사료되었다.

This study was performed to elucidate the inhibitory effects of Alveopora japonica extract on melanin synthesis by measuring the levels of cell viability, mRNA expression, tyrosinase activity, and melanin production in the B16F10 cell line. The effects of A. japonica extract on tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TYRP1), TYRP2, tyrosinase (TYR), and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) mRNA expression levels and melanin content were determined. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR show that A. japonica extract decrease the mRNA expression levels of TYRP1, TYRP2, TYR, and MITF in B16F10 cell line, resulting in lower levels of melanin production compared to α-MSH-treated B16F10 cells. Tyrosinase activity assays reveal that A. japonica extract decrease melanin production in B16F10 cells. These results demonstrate the whitening effects of A. japonica extract on B16F10 cells; thus, A. japonica extract is a potent ingredient for skin whitening. Further research is needed on the mechanism of action of A. japonica extract. Such research will benefit not only cosmetics, but also the health food and medical industries.

Rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of aryl substituted benzenesulfonates (3) with alkali metal ethoxides ($EtO^-M^+$) and butane-2,3-dione monoximates ($Ox^-M^+$) in ethanol at $25^{\circ}C$. The reactivity of the alkali metal ethoxides decreases in the order $EtO^-K^+> EtO^- > EtO^-Li^+$, indicating that $K^+$ ion behaves as a catalyst and $Li^+$ ion acts as an inhibitor for all the substrates studied. For the corresponding reactions of 3 with Ox^-M^+$, $Li^+$ ion also exhibits inhibitory effect for all the substrates, while, $K^+$ ion shows catalytic or inhibitory effects depending on the nature of substituents on the acyl and phenyl moieties. A study of substituent effect on rate has revealed that both EtO^- $and Ox^-$ systems have the same reaction mechanism. The different behavior shown by $K^+$ ion for the reaction of 3 with $EtO^-$ and $Ox^-$ would be attributed to a difference in charge polarization of S=O bond in the transition state between the two systems and/or a change in conformation of Ox^-K^+$.

To investigate antioxidant effects of tea tree root extracts using various extraction methods, cytotoxicity, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging, SOD, nitrite scavenging activity and inhibitory activity of lipid peroxidation, reducing power, ferrous ion chelating activity were measured. Cytotoxicity for RAW 264.7 cells was not observed at concentrations treated with below 90 ㎍/mL in all extracts. The maximum DPPH radical, nitrite scavenging, SOD activity and inhibitory activity of lipid peroxidation were obtained at the ethylacetate and 70% ethanol extract. The maximum ABTS radical scavenging activity was obtained at the ethylacetate and hot water extract. However, in the case of reducing power and ferrous ion chelating activity, they were obtained at 70% ethanol and hexane extract, respectively. Nitrate scavenging activity showed the most excellent scavenging ability of 59.6% at 90 ㎍/mL of ethylacetate. The hexane extract had the highest ferrous ion chelating activity, showing 61.05% at 50 ㎍/mL, 66.07% at 70 ㎍/mL and 76.81% at 90 ㎍/mL, respectively. The results of this research show that the ethylacetate and 70% ethanol extracts of tea tree root can be used as a natural material for scavenging the radicals. However, future study is necessary to understand the mechanism of antioxidant activity by identification of substances.

Purpose: This study was performed to elucidate the inhibitory effect of Mibaeksan (MB) on melanin synthesis in B16F10 mouse melanoma cell. Methods: To demonstrate the inhibitory effects of MB on melanin synthesis, we measured the amount of released and produced melanin in B16F10 melanoma cell. Also, we evaluated tyrosinase-activity in vitro as well as in B16F10 melanoma cell. And to investigate the action mechanism, we assessed the gene expression of tyrosinase, TRP-1, TRP-2, MMP-2, PKA, $PKC{\beta}$, ERK-1 ERK-2, AKT-1 and MITF in B16F10 melanoma cells. Results: 1. MB decreased the release and production of melanin in B16F10 melanoma cells. 2. MB decreased tyrosinase activity in vitro and in B16F10 melanoma cells. 3. MB decreased the expression of tyrosinase, TRP-1, TRP-2, PKA, $PKC{\beta}$ and MMP-2 in B16F10 melanoma cells. 4. MB increased the expression of ERK-1, ERK-2 and AKT-1 in B16F10 melanoma cells. 5. MB decreased the expression of MITF in B16F10 melanoma cells. Conclusion: From these results, it may be concluded that MB has the antimelanogenetic effects.

To research the characteristics of ion currents induced by Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang, nystatin-perforated patch clamp technique under voltage-c(amp condition was used. Periaqueductal gray neuron was dissociated from Sprauge-Dawley rat, 10-15 days old. Cytotoxicity of Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang showed incubation time and concentration dependent manner. Ion current activated by Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang were inhibited by bicuculline and strychnine and CNQX. It can be suggested that Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang modulate inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters-, GABA, glycine and non-NMDA, acticvated ion channels. Modulatory effect of Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang was more greater in inhibitory neurotransmitters. Low concentration of Bujaijung-tang which dose not elicit ion current itself, activated GABA and glycine induced chloride currents. In this study, we can found that the activation of Bujaijung-tang and Bojungikgi-tang on non-NMDA subtypes of glutamate receptor is its major action mechanism and can be used as very effective Herb treatment on Myasthenia gravis patient.

본 연구에서는 대두 isoflavone의 하나인 daidzein의 콜레스테롤 당전이 효소에 대한 저해효과와 헬리코박터에 대한 항균력을 측정하였다. 콜레스테롤 당전이 효소는 헬리코박터 파이로리의 세포벽 지질성분을 구성하는 $\alpha$-glucosyl cholesterol을 생성하는 데 관여하는 효소로 헬리코박터의 생육에 있어서 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. Daidzein을 농도별로 처리하였을 경우, 콜레스테롤 당전이 효소의 활성은 daidzein의 농도에 의존적으로 저해를 나타내었으며, daidzein의 $IC_{50}$값은 $128.5\;{\mu}M$이었다. 또한 disc diffusion 방법을 이용하여 항균실험에 있어서도 daidzein은 헬리코박터의 생육을 억제하였다. 이상의 결과를 통하여 daidzein의 효소저해 활성은 헬리코박터의 생육 저해와 밀접한 연관이 있는 것으로 판단된다.

Gamiseunggal-tang(G-tang) has long been used for the treatment of acute and chronic allergic diseases(especially, urticaria) in oriental medicine. But, It's mechanism of action is not well investigated. Anal therapy is another way of taking medicine, which is not used in common situation but available for the treatment of colon and anal diseases. It is also used in GI tract diseases, Gynecological diseases, and pediatric diseases and so on. It is especially benefitable for patients who are in such situations as coma, severe vomiting, and swallowing difficulty. In this study, the author investigated the effects of G-tang by anal therapy on acute and chronic allergic reactions in murine model. The results obtained are as follows: 1. G-tang(0.01, 0.1 g/kg) inhibited the compound 48/80-induced ear swelling response in mice. Inhibitory effects of G-tang was significant (P<0.05) at the dose of 0.01 g/kg. 2. G-tang(0.001-0.1 g/kg) inhibited the cutaneous allergic reaction activated by anti-dinitrophenyl(DNP) IgE in rats. Especially, G-tang 0.01, 0.1 g/kg inhibited the cutaneous allergic reaction significantly. 3. G-tang(0.01-1 g/L) dose-dependently inhibited the compound 48/80-induced histamine release from the peritoneal mast cells. 4. G-tang(0.001-0.1 g/L) had a inhibitory effect on anti-DNP IgE-induced tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ production. Above results indicate that anal therapy of G-tang may be beneficial in the treatment of acute and chronic allergic diseases.
