인삼이 면역계 질환의 일종인 과민성 반응에 대한 치료약으로서의 가능성을 연구하기 위해서 in viva와 in vitra실험을 수행하였다. in vitra실험으로서는 hyaluronidase의 활성을 지표로 삼았으며, in viva실험에서는 mouse이각, rat등피부, 복강 비만세포, 그리고 guinea pig의 ileum에서 면역반응에 대한 아답타겐의 작용을 관찰하였다. in uitra 실험에서는 hyaluronidase와 histamine 분비를 항알레르기 작용의 지표로 사용하였다. hyaluronidase의 경우 그 활성은 Cacl2로 활성화 시키기 전이나 후에 모두 아답타겐(100, 50, 및 10 mg/ml)에 의해서 현저하게 억제되었다. 한편 rat 복강 비만 세포에서의 histamine유리 시험에서는 아답타겐(0.5, 1, 5mg/ml)이 histamine유리가 증가되었다. Guinea pig의 ileum 평활근에서는 아답타겐이 평활근 자극 작용없이 항히스타민 효과률 나타내었다. in uiua 실험의 첫 단계로 우리는 혈관 투과성에 미치는 아답타겐의 효과를 mouse 이각과 rat 등피부에서 관찰하였다. Mouse이각에서의 실험에서는 hoistamine, serotonin, 그리고 LTC4로 challenge하여 관찰한 결과 histamine과 serotonin의 경우, 혈관투과성 항진은 아답타겐(50-400mg/m1)에 의해서 유의성있게 억제되었으나, rat 등 피부에서는 mouse에서와는 달리 48-hr PCA가 증가 되었고, histamine에 의한 혈관투과성 항진은 아답타겐에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다. 반면에 compound 48/80과 serotonin에 의한 혈관투과성 항진은 mouse 의 경우에서처럼 아답타겐에 의해 억제되었다.

Antigenic potential of a recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) produced by Dong-A charm. Co. Ltd. was examined by active systemic anaphylaxis (ASA) test in guinea pigs, mouse-rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction and passive hemagglutination (PHA) test. In ASA test, rhEPO induced the signs of restlessness, rubbing or licking nose, sneezing and coughing in the animals immunized with rhEPO 1000 lU/kg alone or rhEPO 1000 lU/kg incorporated into Freund\\\\`s complete adjuvant. In the mouse-rat PCA test, only one of six sera from the animals immunized with rhEPO 1000 lUng incorporated into Alum showed positive result. In the PHA test, rhEPO revealed negative results in all of the rhEPO-immunized groups. From these results, rhEPO was considered to produce IgE in guinea pigs and mice, but not IgG and/or IsM in mice. The results of this study were similar to those of the other recombinant human erythropoietin and these positive results were thought to be caused due to the fact that rhEPO were heterogeneous proteins to guinea pigs and mice. Considering the fact that rhErO has an identical structure with indigenous human erythropoietin, rhEPO is not thought to cause immunological problems in clinical use.

DA-3002 is a genuine human growth hormone produced by Dong-A Pharm. Co. Ltd. research laboratory using recombinant DNA technic. In this study, antigenic potential of DA-3002 was examined by active systemic anaphyaxis(ASA) in guinea pigs, mouse-rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(PCA) and passive hemagglutination(PHA) test as a part of safety research. DA-3002 induced anaphylactic shock in ASA test using guinea pigs Immunized with DA-3002 alone or DA-3002 incoporated into Freund's complete adjutant(FCA) when challenged with 10 times higher dose of anticipated clinical dose of DA-3002. In the mouse-rat PCA and PHA test, DA-3002 also showed positive results. DA-3002, therfore, was considered to produce IgE, IgG, and/or IgM in mice. The results of this study were similar to those of the other human growth hormones and these positive results were thought to be caused due to the fact that both DA-3002 and the other human growth hormones were heterogenous proteins to guinea pigs and mice. Considering the fact that DA-3002 is a genuine human growth hormone of which structure is identical with indigenous human growth hormone, DA-3002 is thought not to cause immunological problems in clinical use.

Immunologic potential of DA-125, a new anthracycline antitumor antibiotic, was investigated using guinea pigs and mice. In antigenicity experiments, guinea pigs were sensitized subcutaneously with DA-125 or DA-125 incorporated in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) once a week for three weeks. No systemic anaphylaxis was induced by intravenous injection of DA-125 or DA-125 incubated with guinea pig serum after 3 weeks from the last sensitization. None of sera of these animals showed any passive cutaneous anaphylactic reaction (PCA) when DA-125 or DA-125 incubated with guinea pig serum was used as a challenging antigen in homologous PCA experiment. On the other hand the treatment of guinea pigs with ovalbumin Incorporated in CFA induced systemic anaphylactic reaction when challenged by intravenous injection of 5 mg/body of ovalbumin. Immunodiffusion test revealed no precipitating antibodies as detected in guinea pigs sensitized with DA-125. In 24-hour heterologous PCA reaction with sera of C57BL/6 mice immunized with DA-125 or DA-125 mixed with aluminum hydroxide gel (Alum), None of sera showed positive reaction when DA-125 or DA-125 incubated with rat serum was used as a challenging antigen. Sera of animals immunized with a mixture of ovalbumin and alum showed positive PCA reaction when 5 mg/body of ovalbumin was injected as a challenging antigen. In lymphocyte proliferation tests, spleen lymphocyte proliferation to PHA and LPS was similarly impaired by 12 mg/kg of DXR or 36 mg/kg of DA-125, and the immunodepressive activity of DA-125 showed a dose-dependent manner. From these results, it could be concluded that immunosupression of DA-125 would be comparable to that of DXR and that DA-125 would not induce systemic allergic reaction in its clinical use.

Antigenic potential of a novel cephalosporin, IDC7181 was examined a active systemic anaphylaxis (ASA) and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) test, in guinea pig and mouse-rat models, respectively. In ASA test, IDC7181 induced the signs of restlessness in a few animals immunized with a high dose (100 mg/kg) of IDC7181 alone or in combination with Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA). In PCA test, only one of ten sera from the animals immunized with a high dose (100 mg/kg) of IDC7181 in the absence or presence of FCA showed positive reaction. The positive reaction, induced by IDC7181, which may be due to $\beta$-lactam ring, in ASA and PCA tests were negligible in comparison with those of traditional cephalosporins. Taken together, it is suggested that IDC7181 do not cause immunological problems in clinical dosage.

Mahwang-Shin-Gung-San has been found inhibiting the mast cell-mediated anaphylactic reaction. This report describes an inhibitory effect of Mahwang-Shin-Gung-San (MSGS) on the immediate-type cutaneous allergic reactions. MSGS has concentration -dependently inhibited the ear swelling response induced by compound 48/80 in mouse by intradermal injection. The mast cells in mouse ear tissue undergone ear-swelling response by compound 48/80 were stained by alcian blue/nuclear fast red. MSGS significantly inhibited the compound 48/80-induced degranulation from mast cells in ear tissue. MSGS concentration-dependently inhibited the histamine release from the rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) by compound 48/80. We also studied the effect of MSGS on mast cell-dependent passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) activated by dinitrophenyl IgE antibody. MSGS showed potent inhibition of PCA by oral administration. These results indicate that MSGS inhibits immediate-type allergic reactions by inhibition of mast cell degranulation in vivo and in vitro.

Antigenicity of DA-3285, human recombinant erythropoietin which was produced from mammalian cells, was examined in guinea pigs and mice. In active systemic anaphylactic test, mild anaphylactic signs were observed in guinea pigs sensitized subcutaneously with DA-3285 or DA-3285 incorporated with complete Freund's adjuvant(CFA) when challenged with high dose(1000 IU/Kg) of DA-3285. Other groups showed negative responses. In mouse-rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis test, 20% sera of mice immunized with DA-3285 or DA-3285 mixed with aluminum hydroxide(alum) showed mild positive responses. In the case of indirect haemagglutination reaction(IHA) test, when sheep red blood cells coated with DA-3285 was incubated with mouse serum, all the serum samples were showed negative responses. These results suggest that DA-3285 has a very weak antigenic potential and probably would not induce systemic allergic reactions in clinical uses.

The antigenic potential of M3S tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$(M3S TNF), which is a mutated form of TNF(TNF mutein) designed to reduce adverse effects of wild type human TNF, was investigated in the present study. The antigenicity of M3S TNF was examined by conducting active systemic anaphylaxis (ASA) test in guinea pigs, heterologous(mouse-rat) passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(PCA) test and passive hemagglutination(PHA) test. The experimental animals were divided into low, medium, high and the highest dose groups and the groups with or without immunoadjuvant, sensitized according to the appropriate schedule and challenged. In ASA test, when challenged with 120 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal, moderate to severe positive anaphylactic responses were observed in groups sensitized with 12 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal, 120 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal and 120 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal+Freund's complete adjuvant. In PCA test, positive responses were observed in the group sensitized with the highest dose emulsified with an alum(12 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal+alum). In PHA test, positive responses were observed in the group sensitized with 3 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /animal emulsified with an alum. All the other groups in each experiment showed negative responses. Based on these results, M3S TNF is considered to have some antigenic potential.

Anti-allergic action of each water extracts of some crude drugs was investigated in mice and rats. The activity of hyaluronidase which was used in the screening test of anti-allergic action was inhibited significantly by Amomi Semen, Asiasari Radix, Cimicifugae Rhizoma, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Glycyrrhizae Radix and Scutellariae Radix. The 48-hour homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(48-hr PCA) in mouse ear was inhibited significantly by intraperitoneal(i.p.) injection of Amomi Semen, Cimicifugae Rhizoma, and ketotifen, a comparative drug of an anti-allergic action. The increase of vascular permeability induced by histamine or serotonin was inhibited significantly by i.p. injection of Amomi Semen, Cimicifugae Rhizoma, Cinnamomi Ramulus and ketotifen. In rat dorsal skin, the increase of vascular permeability which was induced by histamine, serotonin or compound 48/80 was inhibited significantly by i.p. injection of Amomi Semen, Asiasari Radix, Cimicifugae Rhizoma, Scutellariae Radix and ketotifen. Armeniacae Semen and Liriopis Tuber which had not inhibited hyaluronidase activity did not inhibit 48-hr PCA and the increase of histamine, serotonin or compound 48/80-induced vascular permeability in mice and rats. These results suggest that each water extract of Amomi Semen and Cimicifugae Rhizoma has anti-allergic action.

Actions for 48-hour homolgous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (48-hr PCA) and chemical mediators were investigated in mice and rats. The hyaluronidase activity, which was used in the in vitro screening test of the antiallergic action, was significantly inhibited by Magnoiliae Flos, Achyranthis Radix, Forsythiae Fructus, Alpiniae Fructus, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma and Ponciri Fructus among twelve medicinal plants and tranilast as a comparative drug of the antiallergic action. In the mouse ear, 48-hr PCA was significantly inhibited by intraperitoneal (i.p.) pretreatment with Magnoliae Flos, Achyranthis Radix, Alpiniae Fructus, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, Ponciri Fructus, Ledebouriellae Radix and tranilast. And also, the increment of vascular permeability induced by histamine or serotoin was inhibited significantly by i.p. pretreatment with Magnoliae Flos, Achyranthis Radix, Alpiniae Fructus, Anemarrheuae rhizoma, Zizyphi Fructus and tranilast. In the rat dorsal skin, the increment of vascular permeability induced by histamine or serotonin was significantly inhibited by i.p. pretreatment with Magnoliae Flos, Acyranthis Radix, Alpiniae Fructus, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma and tranilast. And also, the increment of vascular permeability induced by compound 48/80 or calcium ionophore A 23187 was significantly inhibited by i.p. pretreatment with Magnoliae Flos, Achyranthis Radix, Alpiniae Fructus, Amemarrhenae Rhizoma, Zizyphi Fructus, Ledebouriellae Radix, Lithospermi Radix and tranilast. These results suggest that each water extracts of Magnoliae Flos, Achyranthis Radix, Alpiniae Fructus and Anemarrhenae Rhizoma have especially antiallergic activities.
