Objectives : This study was designed to compare the effects of acanthopanax stem bark (ASB) and acanthopanax root bark (ARB) on the monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced osteoarthritis rats. Methods : The antioxidant activities were evaluated through radical scavenging assays using 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radicals and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals. Also, we examined total poly phenol and flavonoids contents. Osteoarthritis was caused by injection MIA($50{\mu}{\ell}$ with $80mg/m{\ell}$) into the knee joint cavity of rats. Rats were divided by 4 groups (normal group, control group, ASB treated group, ARB treated group, each n=6). The changes in the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum were analyzed after experiment. Also, the anti-oxidant, inflammatory protein levels were investigated western blot analysis. Knee joint tissue, histopathological observation hematoxylin & eosin staining and safranin-O staining were measured. Results : In the present study, ARB treated group showed superior inhibitory effects on the inflammatory parameters than the ASB treated group. ARB aqueous extract was effective in antioxidant measurements. The administration of ARB showed a significant reduction of changes in relative hind paw weight distribution. Morever, it decreased ROS, ALT and AST levels in serum, compared with those of the control rats. The ARB administration inhibited the biomarkers of inflammatory in tissues. Conclusions : ASB aqueous extract and ARB aqueous extract have a great effect on osteoarthritis, and ARB aqueous extract has excellent effect on osteoarthritis through antioxidant and anti-inflammation.

The methanol extract of the rootbark of Fraxinus sieboldiana Blume(Oleaceae) gave two coumarin glycosides, fraxin (fraxetin-8-glucoside), $C_{16}H_{18}O_{10},\;mp\;204^{\circ}\;and\;esculin\;(esculetin-6-glucoside),\;C_{15}H_{16}O_{9},\;mp\;204{\sim}205^{\circ}$. Beside, the methanol extract of the root bark was found to contain mannitol. ${\beta}-sitosterol$ is confirmed by massspectrometry.

In the previous report, it was described that the butanol fraction of the root bark extract of Aralia elata had potent antigastritic and antiulcerative effects in rats, In this pharmacological profile, the fraction revealed low acute toxicities in mice and rats, no central nervous system activities, moderate analgesic action, weak inhibitory action in carrageenin edema of rats and no direct effects on isolated smooth muscles of rats and guinea-pigs. Slight lowering of blood pressure as given i.v. in rabbit was observed.

음나무의 새로운 용도 개발을 위하여 다양한 항산화 측정법을 이용하여 생리활성을 측정하였다. 즉, 음나무 수피 및 근피의 온수 추출물과 메탄올 추출물에 대한 세포 내 활성산소 농도를 측정하여 세포수준에서의 산화 스트레스 억제효과를 측정하였으며, DPPH법 및 NBT법을 이용하여 각 추출물의 화학적인 측면에서의 항산화력을 측정하여 이들 간의 차이를 비교하였다. NR assay와 MTT assay에 의해 측정한 세포독성 실험결과, 음나무 근피의 메탄올 추출물의 세포독성이 가장 강했으며, 50%의 세포 생존율을 나타내는 NR50과 MTT50은 각각 0.0018%와 0.0029%였다. 산화 스트레스 억제효과는 근피의 불용성 온수 추출물이 15분 처리에서 57.9%로 가장 우수하였다. DPPH법과 NBT법을 이용한 음나무 추출물에 대한 항산화 활성 측정결과, 각각 수피의 메탄올 추출물이 96% (0.1% 농도)이고, 수피의 불용성 온수 추출물이 95% (0.5% 농도)를 나타내어 우수한 항산화 활성을 나타내었다.

Polyphenolic compounds widely occurring in the traditional medicine plants have been reported to possess strong antioxidant activity. The antioxidative substances of water soluble extract from leaves, stem bark, root bark and fruit powder of Cudrania tricuspidata were tested in three different in vitro experimental models. In oxidation models using DPPH( , ' diphenyl picrylhydrazyl) method, Fe2+ induced linoleic acid peroxidation, and autooxidation of hepatic microsomal membranes, the antioxidative activities of water soluble extract from stem bark were strong than that from leaves and root bark. Fruits of Cudrania tricuspidata contained the highest amounts of polyphenolic compounds among the parts of this plant. The changes in polyphenolic compound contents of fruit powder caused by heat treatment (20oC, 40oC, and 60oC) were also monitored. After water blanching, contents of phenolic compounds was increased slightly in the following order; 20oC(1454mg), 40oC(1487mg), and 60oC(1511mg). These results supports that water soluble extracts from Cudrania tricuspidata contain antioxidative compounds.

The root-bark of the mulberry tree has been used as a medicine with antitussive, antiphlogistic, diuretic etc. in Korea. Among many kinds of mulberry trees, Morus Lhou has been widely cultivated in our country. In this experiment, three substances were obtained from the root-bark of Morus Lhou removed its cork layer by column chromatography of methanol extract. One of the substances was supposed as ${\alpha}$-amyrin acetate, another was alyceride, the other was confirmed as ${\beta}$-sistosterol by chemical and physical methods.

Well grown trees of ficus bengalensis produce one or more potential inhibitors of seed germination and seedling growth. The aqueous extract of ficus leaf and bark enhanced the shoot length aqueous leaf extract of F. bengalensis. Bark extract of F. bengalensis inhibited the shoot length and root length of the plant at high concentration. Both the bark and leaf extract inhibited the seed germination. The postemergence and preemergence treatment of bark and leaf extract of F. bengalensis reduced the shoot biomass. The result suggest that F. bengalensis may have potential allelochemicals which may be developed as natural herbicides.

본 연구에서 육계 추출물로부터 cinnamyl alcohol을 분리·정제하였다. 연구 결과, H3 분획100 ㎍/mL에서 부정근 형성율이 286.6%였으며, 표준품 cinnamyl alcohol 1 mM (134.2 ㎍/mL)의 형성율이 290%로 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 육계 methanol 추출물에 함유되어있는 cinnamyl alcohol이 녹두의 부정근 형성을 유도하는 주된 화합물일 것으로 판단된다. 육계에서 동정한 cinnamyl alcohol은 현재 식품첨가제 및 향료로써 사용되고 있으므로 안전성이 이미 보장되어 있으며, 한약재로써 사용된 육계 잔류물을 활용하여 부정근 형성 유도물질을 추출한다면비용적인 측면에서 또한 긍정적인 요인으로 작용할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 육계는 유기농 농자재로써 충분히 사용 가능할 뿐만 아니라 신규 천연 식물생장조절제의 개발용 소재로서도 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Yam (Dioscorea batatas) is widely consumed as functional food for health promotion mainly in East Asia countries. We assessed whether yam root (tuber) or bark (peel) extracts stimulated the activity of osteoblasts for osteogenesis. MC3T3-E1 cells (mouse osteoblasts) were treated with yam root extracts (water or methanol) (study I) or bark extracts (water or hexane) (study II) within $0{\sim}10{\mu}g/mL$ during the periods of osteoblast proliferation (5~10 day), matrix maturation (11~15 day) and mineralization (16~20 day) as appropriate. In study I, both yam root water and methanol extracts increased cell proliferation as concentration-dependent manner. Cellular collagen synthesis and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, both the indicators of bone matrix protein and inorganic phosphate production for calcification respectively, were also increased by yam root water and methanol extract. Osteoblast calcification as cell matrix Ca and P accumulation was also increased by the addition of yam root extracts. In study II, yam bark extracts (water and hexane) increased osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, as collagen synthesis and ALP activity and osteoblast matrix Ca and P deposition. The study results suggested that both yam root and bark extracts stimulate osteogenic function in osteoblasts by stimulating bone matrix maturation by increasing collagen synthesis, ALP activity, and matrix mineralization.

동맥경화증은 동맥 내피세포의 손상으로 인해 내막층에 지질이 축적되어 발생 되는 염증성 질환으로 동맥 내막에 침윤되는 백혈구와 백혈구에서 분비되는 전염증성 싸이토카인에 의해 죽종형성이 시작된다. 꾸지뽕은 뽕나무과의 작은 나무로 그 추출물은 항염증, 항산화, 항암의 효과를 가지고 있다. 그러나, 동맥경화증에서 효능은 명확하게 연구되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 동맥경화증의 초기 진행에서 꾸지뽕의 항염증 효과를 알아보고자 꾸지뽕 뿌리의 추출물을 수득하였고, 동맥경화증의 동물 모델인 ApoE 결손 생쥐에서 복강대식세포를 분리하였다. 분리된 복강대식세포에 LPS로 염증반응을 유발하고 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물을 처리하였을 때 100㎍/ml 이하의 농도에서 세포 생존율의 변화가 관찰되지 않아 이 농도를 추가 실험을 위한 유효 농도로 설정하였다. 또한, LPS에 의해 증가한 염증 싸이토카인(MCP-1, IL-1β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-6)의 발현이 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물에 의해 감소하였다. 따라서, 꾸지뽕 뿌리 추출물은 동맥경화의 잠재적 위험성을 가지고 있는 대식세포에서 항염증 효과를 나타내어 동맥경화증의 치료제 개발에 이용 가능할 것이다.
