Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Guibi-Tang(GBT) on focal brain ischemic injury induced by intraluminal filament insertion in rats. Methods : The ischemia was induced by intraluminal filament insertion into middle cerebral artery. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups, normal group(n=8); control group was ischemia induced and no treatment(n=8); GBT 1X group was ischemia induced and administrated 42.2 mg/ml/kg of Guibi-Tang orally(n=8); GBT 3X group was ischemia induced and administrated 126.6 mg/ml/kg of Guibi-Tang orally(n=8); GBT 6X group was ischemia induced and administrated 253.2 mg/ml/kg of Guibi-Tang orally(n=8) for 21 days. mGluR5, Bax, Bcl-2 and cytochrome C were investigated to observe the effects of Guibi-Tang on apoptosis. The effects of Guibi-Tang on neuroprotective/apoptotic agents in cresyl violet, choline acetyltranferase(ChAT) with ischemic injury were investigated. Results : The intensity of mGluR5 mRNA in the hippocampal CA1 was increased in normal and GBT(Guibi-Tang) 1X groups compared with the control group. The intensity of Bax mRNA in the hippocampal CA1 was decreased in normal and GBT 1X groups compared with the control group. However it was increased unexpectedly in GBT 3X group. The intensity of Bcl-2 mRNA in the hippocampal CA1 was increased in normal and GBT 1X groups compared with the control group. The intensity of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio in the hippocampal CA1 was decreased in normal and GBT 1X groups compared with the control group. The intensity of cytochrome C protein in the hippocampal CA1 was decreased in normal, GBT 1X and GBT 6X groups compared with the control group. The density of neurons stained by cresyl violet and ChAT was increased in normal and GBT 1X groups compared with the control group. Conclusions : These results suggest that Guibi-Tang may have protective effect on vascular dementia.

가톨릭의대 방사선치료실에서는 1987년 2월부터 1990년 7월까지 41개월 동안에 뇌동정맥성 기형으로 확진된 17예에 대해서 6MV선형가속기를 사용하여 SAD법으로 외부방사선 치료를 시행하였다. 치료방법은 총 14예중 4예 $(24\%)$에 대해서는 보통분할방식으로, 13예 $(70\%)$는 정위다방향 고선량 단일 조사로 치료하였다. 이들의 임상적 및 방사선학적 추적검사를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 연령분포는 $10\sim51$세 (중앙값 26세)였고, 남녀 비는 14 : 3으로 나타났다. 2.주증상은 두통이 12예$(70.1\%)$, 경련 5예$(29.4\%)$, 편부전마비 4예$(23.5\%)$ 등의 순이었고, 파열에 따른 출혈을 동반한 경우가 5예 $(29.4\%)$있었다. 3. 각 뇌동정맥성 기형은 중뇌동맥 분지에서 기원한 경우가 7예$(41.2\%)$, 전뇌동맥 3예$(17.6\%)$, 후뇌동맥 2예 $(11.8\%)$, 전뇌 및 후동맥 1예 $(5.9\%)$순으로 나타났다. 4. 보통 분할방식 치료군의 조사량은 $3,020\sim4,500\;cGy/3\sim4$주, 정위다방향 단일고선량 치료는 $1,200\sim3,000$ cGy를 조사하였다. 5. 추적조사기간은 보통분할방식 치료군이 $4\sim43$개월 (중앙값 33개월), 정위 다방향 단일고선량 치료군이 $3\sim21$개월(중앙값 13개월)이었다. 6. 보통분할방식 치료군중 방사선학 추적검사를 실시한 2예에서는 경미한 반응을 보였고, 임상적 추적만을 실시한 2예 중 1예에서는 임상중상의 호전을 보였다. 7. 정위다방향 고선량 단일치료군은 13명 전예에서 방사선학적 추적 검사상 완전반응 2예 $(15.4\%)$, 부분반응 5예 $(38.5\%)$, 경미반응 2예 $(15.4\%)$, 무반응 4예 $(30.7\%)$로 각각 나타났으며, 임상증상의 호전을 보였다.
