  • The isolation of the MeOH extract from the flower bud of Magnolia biondii Pamp. using various column chromatographies and HPLC led to eleven neoglignan derivatives (1 - 11). Their structures were mainly determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectral data analysis and physiological methods. The isolated compounds (1 - 11) were tested for anti-allergic effects using IL-2 inhibitory assay in Jurkat T cells.

  • Effects of Ssang Wha Tang (SWT), a blended Chinese traditional medicine, on the pharmacokinetics of sulfobromophthalein (BSP) were studied in the rats. BSP was administered via portal vein to the control and the SWT-treated rats. The in vitro distribution of BSP to blood cells and the hemato-physiological conditions, liver weight, GOT. GPT activity were also examined. The systemic clearance $(CL_s)$ of BSP was increased with the administration of SWT, but no significant differences were observed in the liver weight and in vitro distribution of BSP to blood cells. These results suggest that the intrinsic clearance of free BSP of the liver is increased with the administration of SWT in the rats.

  • The pharmaceutical effects of Korean traditional foods made in ${\ulcorner$Eumsikdimibang${\lrcorner}$ were studied. Eumsikdimibangis a representative ancient book of cooking, which was published in 1653 by Mme. Jang. The type of food in Eumsikdimibang were Guksu(wheat vermicelli as like western noodles) Mandu(bun stuffed with seasoned meat and vegetables), Guk(soup), J'IM(steam meat or fish). Chae, Noorumi, Hyae(sliced raw fish), Jockpyun(jellied beef soup), Jockgall(salted seafood), Kimchi, Juk(skewer or broach) Jhee. Sun(steaming of stuffed vegetable), Bockuem, Jeon(pan fried fish), Gui(meat or fish grilled with seasoning), Dock(Korean rice cake), Jabgwa, Beverage and Junggwa. Each Korean foods has a phamarceutical action; enhancement of physical activity, thirst elimination, detoxication and treatment disease.

  • This paper aims to analyze the effects that marketing mix variables have on the marketing performance of pharmaceutical manufacturers. It examines how product characteristics, price, marketing channel and promotion effort influence the sales and market share of anti-ulcer drugs in the markets for clinics and hospitals separately. Empirical results from 29 products of anti-ulcer drugs show that sales in hospitals are affected by the profit per prescription to the physician, brand name drugs relative to generics, and the age of ingredients since its introduction to the markets. Profit per prescription to the hospital, relative price, age of ingredients and promotion effort have positive effects on the market share.

  • The effects of aqueous extracts from Korean commercial teas on excessive free radicals were examined utilizing spin trapping, 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and lipid peroxidation. A potent scavenging effect of green tea and oriental senna tea was dound using sipin trapping. The most effective teasagainst the DPPH radical was green tea, followed inorder by pine leak tea, Chinese gutta percha tea and orietnal senna tea. Similar to the effects of DPPH radical , green tea, pine leaf tea, Chinese gutta percha tea and oriential senna tea had an inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation. These findings predict that Korean tea is a promising material for scavenging free radicals, and for curing diseases related to free-radical reactions.

  • In vivo administration of Leucostim, a human recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), was evaluated for the effects on survival, hematologic recovery, and colony forming unit- spleen (CFU-5) in murine bone marrow transplantation (BMT) model. Sublethally irradiated (9 Gy) mice received bone marrow cells from untreated mice, and then were treated with G-CSF subcutaneously at doses of 2.5,5, or $10\mu\textrm{g}$/kg or vehicle solution (control) for 14 days from one day after BMT. There was no effect of irradiation and BMT on mortality. The repeated subcutaneous injections of Leucostim for 14 days post- BMT significantly facilitated hematologic recovery compared with vehicle control in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, mice treated with Leucostim had significantly increased numbers of CFU-s colonies on day 10 post-BMT. These results suggest that Leucostim, a new G-CSF, has beneficial effects on hematologic reconstitution after BMT.

  • Objectives:We have reported that oral administration of Saiko-ka-Ryukotsu-Borei-To (SRB), a traditional Chinese formulation, inhibited the intimal thickening in carotid artery after balloon injury in cholesterol-fed rats. To elucidate its mechanism, the effects of SRB on migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) were examined in vivo and in vitro.Methods: < In vivo-study> Rats were fed on diet containing 1% cholesterol and SRB 3 days before and 4 days after denudation. Simvastatin was used as a positive control. (omitted)
