Objectives : Bojungikgitang (BJT), the Oriental medical prescription has been traditionally used about improvement of immune response and infective disease at Asian nation. In this study, we has compared about the anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects on BJT of three countries including Korea (Korean Traditional Medicine, KTM), China (Traditional Chinese Medicine, CTM) and Japan (Japanese Traditional Medicine, JTM). Methods : We has basically using LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. The expression of these inflammatory mediators has measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Also, free radical scavenging assay has tested for anti-oxidative activity as well as the contents of total flavonoid and polyphenol. Results : As a result, we were founded the inhibitory effects of BJT (KTM, CTM, JTM) on LPS-induced production of NO, TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-6 as well as the anti-oxidative activities. Especially the KTM was most effective in anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Conclusions : These results indicate that BJT (KTM, CTM, JTM) has a good anti- inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. But, there were degree of effects on between pharmacopoeia of the countries. Thus, further study is required that find appropriate methods for extracting as well as establish of standardized processes in order to improve the quality of BJT (KTM, CTM, JTM) as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative agent for treatment of inflammatory diseases.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the shelf-life of Bojungikgi-tang (Buzhongyiqi-tang in Chinese) by long-term storage test. Experiments were performed to evaluate the stability such as the selected physicochemical, pH, identification, heavy metal, microbiological experiment, and amount of marker compounds under a long-term storage test of Bojungikgi-tang decoction. The significant change was not showed in pH, heavy metal, microbiological, and identification test based on long-term storage test. Furthermore, the HPLC analysis was performed for the determinations of liquiritin, glycyrrhizin, nodakenin, and hesperidin in Bojungikgi-tang by long-term storage test. We were calculated shelf-life of Bojungikgi-tang decoction based on the amount change of four constituents. Consequently, Shelf-life by four compounds at room temperature was predicted 23 month. The suggested shelf-life would be helpful on the storage and distribution of herbal medicine.

We performed this study to determine the late biological effect of gamma radiation and effect of Bu-Zhong-Yi-Qi-Tang (BZYQT), a prescription of traditional Oriental medicine, on radiation-induced late biological effect (survival, hematological change, carcinogenesis) of mice irradiated with 3 Gy of gamma-radiation. There were little difference in body weights between normal and irradiated mice. Survival rate were decreased in irradiated mice and the survival rate and mean survival time of the groups treated with BZYQT were far better than the irradiation control group. A significant elevation of total leukocyte or lymphocyte counts was seen at week 4 and 12 of the group treated with BZYQT. Stimulated recovery by the extract from BZYQT was also observed in thrombocyte. Main gross findings of irradiated mice were appeared as enlargement of spleen, thymus and liver, tumorous nodules of lung and cyst or mass of ovary. Microscopically, there were various findings including hematopoietic and lymphoid tumor, lung cancer, ovarian cancer and cancer of other lesions. BZYQT reduced the incidence of tumor development. Further studies are needed to characterize better the protective nature of ingredients and active compounds.

Objective : Mast cells are a potent source of mediators that regulate inflammatory response in allergies and asthma. The author studied the effect of Bojungikgitanggamibang(BITB) on mast cell-mediated anaphylactic reaction. Method : When BITB was given as pre-treatment at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1 mg/ml, the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells induced by compound 48/80 was reduced in a dose-dependent manner. Result : BITB dose-dependently inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylactic shock. BITB also inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis activated by anti-dinitrophenyl IgE. In addition, BITB inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and A23187-induced interleukin-6 secretion from human mast cell line HMC-1 cells. Conclusion : These results indicate that BITB may be actively anti-allergic.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of BITG on immune response in the young mice. BITG(500mg/kg) was administerd per orally once a day for 7 days to the young BALB/C(4 wks old)mice. The administrationo of BITG enhanced the cell viability of splenocytes, but did not affect that of thymocytes. In vitro system, BITG decreased the cell viability of thymocytes and splenocytes at the concentration of $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The administration of BITG did not affect DNA fragmentation of thymocytes, but decreased that of splenocytes. The administration of BITG increased the population of Thy1+ cell and CD4+CD8- cell in splenocytes. In addition, BITG decreased the production of NO and increased the lucigenin chemiluminescence from peritoneal macrophages. These results suggest that BITG enhances the specific-immune and nonspecific-immune response via increase of cell viability in splenocytes and of phagocytic activity in peritoneal macrophages.

To explore the possible cancer agent from oriental prescriptions, we have examined its antitumor and anti metastatic activities of Kamibojungikgi-tang(KBIT). KBIT extracts exhibited cytotoxicity against P388, A549 and B16-F10 cell lines in a dose-dependent manner and showed antiadhesive effect of A549 cell to complex extracellular matrix at 1 ㎎/㎖ in vitro. In DNA topoisomerase I assay, KBIT extracts showed strong inhibitoty effect in a dose-dependent manner. In pulmonary colonization assay with B16BL6, a number of colonies in the lungs were decreased effectively in KBIT treated group as compared with control group. Moreover, in CAM assay, KBIT extracts significantly inhibited angiogenesis at 15㎍/egg as compared with control. The T/C% was 141% in KBIT treated group in S-180 bearing ICR mice. From the above results it was concluded that KBIT had antitumor and anti metastatic activities. So it is expected to be clinically helpful on the prevention and treatment of cancer, although it is still necessary to study its mechanism on molecular biology and immunology.
