Experimental studies were undertaken to investigate for the effect of Yijin-tang on the digestive system and isolated uterus of rats. Yijin-tang was composed of five crude drugs; Pinelliae Tuber, Aurantii nobilis Pericarpium, Hoelen, Glycyrrhizae Radix and Zingiberis Rhizoma. The results obtained from experiments with water soluble fraction extracted from Yijin-tang were as follows; Spontaneous motilities of isolated ileum of mice and rabbits were suppressed, and contraction of isolated ileum of mice and guinea-pigs induced acetylcholine, barium chloride and histamine were inhibited. The anticathartic action of mice induced by castor oil were significantly observed. The spontaneous motility of isolated uterus of rats was suppressed. Inhibitory effect of gastric juice secretion and antiulcerogenic action were significantly shown in Shay rats.

Activation of $K^+$ channels induces relaxation of smooth muscles by reducing electrical excitability and cytosolic free $Ca^{2+}$ level. ${\beta}$-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol is known to induce relaxation of the uterine smooth muscle by membrane hyperpolarization and $K^+$ efflux. Recently it is suggested that the activity of $Ca^{2+}$-activated $K^+$ channel was increased by isoproterenol in the uterine myocytes isolated from myometrium of the pregnant rat. However, the type of $K^+$ channel mediating the relaxant effect of isopreterenol in the tissue level has not yet studied. In this work, we investigated the type of $K^+$ channels involved in the isoproterenol-induced relaxation of uterine smooth muscle by measuring the integrated insometric tension of the estrogen-treated isolated nonpregnant rat uterus. Contraction of uterine tissue was induced by oxytocin (0.2nM, 2~3 contractions/min) or high KCl(20~80mM). The result are as follows : 1. Isoproterenol($10^{-10}{\sim}10^{-4}M$) inhibited oxytocin-induced contraction of isolated rat uterus($EC_{50}=1.17{\times}10^{-10}M$). 2. Isoproterenol($10^{-10}{\sim}10^{-4}M$) effectively inhibited uterine contraction induced by low KCl(20~40mM) but little those induced by high KCl(60~80mM). 3. Relaxant effect of isoproterenol($10^{-10}{\sim}10^{-4}M$) on 0.2nM oxytocin-induced contraction was effectively reduced by 4-aminopyridine(3, 10mM) but little by TEA(10~30mM), $Ba^{2+}$($1{\sim}30{\mu}M$) and glibenclamide($100{\mu}M$). Our data suggest that the relaxant effect of isoproterenol is mediated by the $K^+$ channel(s) which can be blocked by 4-aminopyridine.

Spontaneous myometrial contraction (SMC) in pregnant uterus is greatly related with gestational age and growing in frequency and amplitude toward the end of gestation to initiate labor. But, an accurate mechanism has not been elucidated. In human and rat uterus, all TRPCs except TRPC2 are expressed in pregnant myometrium and among them, TRPC4 are predominant throughout gestation, suggesting a possible role in regulation of SMC. Therefore, we investigated whether the TRP channel may be involved SMC evoked by mechanical stretch in pregnant myometrial strips of rat using isometric tension measurement and patch-clamp technique. In the present results, hypoosmotic cell swelling activated a potent outward rectifying current in G protein-dependent manner in rat pregnant myocyte. The current was significantly potentiated by $1{\mu}M$ lanthanides (a potent TRPC4/5 stimulator) and suppressed by $10{\mu}M$ 2-APB (TRPC4-7 inhibitor). In addition, in isometric tension experiment, SMC which was evoked by passive stretch was greatly potentiated by lanthanide ($1{\mu}M$) and suppressed by 2-APB ($10{\mu}M$), suggesting a possible involvement of TRPC4/5 channel in regulation of SMC in pregnant myometrium. These results provide a possible cellular mechanism for regulation of SMC during pregnancy and provide basic information for developing a new agent for treatment of premature labor.

Pubescent Angelica is generally used in musculoskeletal diseases of lower extremity, itching, external contraction (外感) and furuncle, with the effect of dispelling wind, draining dampness, dispersing the external (解表) and stopping pain. The disease parts of Treasured Mirror of Eastern Medicine (東醫寶鑑) contain 121 examples of the usage of Pubescent Angelica. Cases of musculoskeletal diseases and itching are mainly in the External Bodily Elements section (外形篇), and those of external contraction and furuncle are mainly in the Miscellaneous Disorder section (雜病篇). Internal Bodily Elements section (內景篇) has 10 prescriptions that involve Pubescent Angelica, in Dreams (2), Voice (1), Uterus (4), Parasites (1), and Feces (2) chapters. Their specific symptoms are insomnia and sleep paralysis (Dreams), loss of voice due to external contraction (Voice), uterine hemorrhage (Uterus), phthisis (Parasites), and constipation and diarrhea (Feces). It is not easy for students beginning their clinical training to link the effects of Pubescent Angelica and its actual usage, especially in the area of internal medicine. By Analyzing the whole cases of Pubescent Angelica in the Treasured Mirror, we found various usages out of reach of basic knowledge of the herb. Such method can be utilized not only in developing herbal knowledge-based products, but also in improving Korean medicine education, by enhancing the occupational competency bridging basic and clinical knowledge.

Aspalatone [3-(2-methyl-4proponyl)]-2-acetyloxybenzoate, CAS 147249-33-0) is a compound having an antithrombotic action. General pharmacological properties of aspalatone were studied. Aspalatone had no effect on central nervous system and no anticonvulsant effect up to 1200 mg/kg p.o. However, the compound has hypothermic and analgesic effect. When administered intravenously in rabbits, aspalatone did not affect blood pressure, heat rate and respiration rate and depth, and it did not inhibit transient hypotensive effect of acetylcholine. The compound did not affect isolated guinea-pig ileum and tracheal strip at a concentration of 1${\times}$$10^{-4}$, and did not inhibit histamine-induced contraction of guinea-pig ileum. It also did not affect isolated rat stomach fundus and estrogenated rat uterus at 1${\times}$$10^{-4}$, and did not inhibit contraction produced by acetylcholine or oxytocin. The pupil size and intestinal propulsion were not influenced at a large dose of was shown. The compound showed a slight increase in urine volume and led to decreased excretion of potassium in urine of rats. The results suggest that aspalatone may have no considerable adverse effects in general pharmacological aspect.

Acetylcholine및 oxytocin에 의하여 야기되는 흰쥐의 적출자궁수축을 $Ca^{2+}$ 길항제의 일종인 verapamil및 tetracaine 존재하에서 acetylcholine및 oxytocin에 의한 자궁수축곡선을 4개의 요소 (trough tension, T: peak tension, P; contraction frequency, F: duration, D)로 나누어 비교분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Verapamil $(0.25\;{\mu}M)$은 자발수축을 억제시켰으나 tetracaine$(42\;{\mu}M)$은 자발수축을 억제시키지 못하였다. 이들 길항제의 존재하에서 acetylcholine및 oxytocin에 의하여 야기되는 자궁수축의 각 구성요소에 변화를 관찰하였다. 즉 acetylcholine에 의한 수축에서 verapamil은 P와 D를 감소시켰고 tetracaine은 F를 감소시키고 D를 증가시켰다. oxytocin에 의한 수축에서 verapamil은 P와 D를 감소시켰으나 tetracaine은 oxytocin농도에 따라 차이가 있었는데, 저농도의 oxytocin에 의한 수축에서는 F를 감소시키고 D를 증가시켰으나 고농도의 oxytocin에 의한 수축에서 는 F와 D에는 영향을 주지 않고 P만 감소시켰다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 acetylcholine및 oxytocin에 의하여 야기되는 수축곡선은 시각적으로 큰 차이가 없었으나 작용기전이 다른 $Ca^{2+}$ 길항제에 의하여 acetylcholine및 oxytocin의 수축의 구성요소에 다르게 영향을 미칠 수 있었다는 것은 수축곡선의 구성요소의 변화를 면밀히 검토하면 자궁수축제의 수축작용기전이 다름을 예측할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 수축억제제에 의한 억제 기전의 차이점도 예측할 수 있을 것으로 생각되어 진다.

The effects of erythrosine on motility of frog heart, rabbit duodenum and uterus isolated, and on mice intestinal motility and voluntary activity were investigated. The effect of erythrosine $2.3{\times}10^{-5}M$ on isolated frog heart showed a slight decrease of the amplitude of motility, and the heart motility stopped in $3.5{\times}10^{-4}M$. With the administration of erythrosine $3.4{\times}10^{-4}M$, the isolated rabbit duodenum showed a remarkable contraction and this effect was inhibited by atropine $1.4{\times}10^{-7}M$. The administration of erythrosine $2.3{\times}10^{-3}M$, produced a contractile effect on the isolated rabbit uterus, and the motility of $6.9{\times}10^{-3}M$ started to increase in contractions at first and finally stopped, keeping in continuous contractions. The effects of erythrosine 0.5, 1.0, 10, and 20mg/kg on mice intestinal motility were not significantly different from this of the normal control. With 20 and 40mg/kg of erythrosine, the effects on voluntary activity showed the decrease of 21 and 58% respectively, and voluntary activity of the mice pretreated with erythrosine 20 and 40mg/kg, induced by C. N. B. 30mg/kg showed the decrease of 57 and 78% respectively in contrast with the normal control group.
