초록

We studied the effect of Rubus croceacanthus Leveille (RCL) on mast cell-mediated anaphylactic reactions. RCL inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylactic shock. When RCL was given at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1 mg/$m\ell$, the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells induced by compound 48/80 was reduced in a dose-dependent manner. RCL also inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis activated by anti-dinitrophenyl IgE. In addition, RCL inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and A23187-induced tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ secretion from human mast cell line HMC-1 cells. These results indicate that RCL may possess a strong anti-anaphylactic activity.
