Abstract

Object : We investigated the effect of Gamiokyaek-tang(GOYT) on immediate type hypersensitivity. Methods : We investigated anti-dinitrophenyl(DNP) IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(PCA) and acetic acid-induced vascular permeability in rodents. Also we measured MTT assay, ${\beta}-hexosminidase$ activity and IL-4 from RBL-2H3 and nitric oxide from Raw264.7. Results : GOYT inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and acetic acid-induced vascular permeability by oral administration. All the concentrations of GOYT from 0.1 to 5mg/ml didn't have an effect on cell viability and cytotoxicity. In RBL-2H3, ${\beta}-hexosminidase$ release and IL-4 production were significantly reduced by 1, 2 and 5mg/ml of GOYT. In Raw264.7, nitric oxide level was decreased by 5mg/ml of GOYT. Conclusion : These results indicate that GOYT have inhibition effects on immediate type hypersensitivity.
