The study studied dermal protection and crease improvement from the sunlight of the lipid extract and narinjin. Sunlight was investigated in HR-1 (motherless mice) to identify changes in epithelial thickness and changes in collagen fibers, which account for around 90% of dermis, as the inhibitory efficacy of collagenase dissolving collagen also plays an important role in wrinkles. The experiment was validated using narinjin and jisil extract. First: The components of jisil and narinjin were analyzed. Second, antioxidant capabilities were confirmed with DPPH. Third: The inhibitory activity of collagen was measured. Studies have shown that the skin's upper skin thickness suppression of dermal extracts and narinzine has increased and that collagen thicknesses and wrinkles have decreased significantly compared to controls.

In order to investigate the inhibitory effects on the type IV allergy reaction of the hot water extracts (10 mg/20 g body weight) from medicinal herbs (Flos magnoliae, Poncirus trifoliata, Bupleurum falcatum, Scutellaria baicalensis, Schisandra chinensis), delayed type hypersensitivity by 2,4-dinitro-1-fluorobenzene (DNFB) was measured. Scutellaria baicalensis, Schisandra chinensis and Poncirus trifoliata showed inhibitory effects on the delayed type hypersensitivity by DNFB in the 1'st and 2'nd sensitized mice, but Flos magnoliae showed valuable changes only in the 2'nd sensitized mice. Inhibitory effect of Bupleurum falcatum had no statistical significance (p>0.05). According to above results, Scutellaria baicalensis, Schisandra chinensis and Poncirus trifoliata are supposed to be effective as anti-delayed type allergic regimen.

To protect skin problems, new natural material alternative to synthetic antioxidants has been extensively selected from natural sources such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. Poncirus trifoliata of those has been widely used as treatment of allergy, chronic inflammatory diseases, and natural antioxidant. In recent days, microbial fermentation to natural products has been reported to increase feasibly their bioavailability. Accordingly, we performed the fermentation using hot water extract of Poncirus trifoliata by isolated Leuconostocs sp. strain JYK and investigated the change of antioxidative activity. Antioxidative material such as hesperidine naringine, imperatorin, and luteolin was found in hot water extract of Poncirus trifoliata. Total phenolics compounds and flavoniods in hot water extract were $71.2{\pm}4.58GAE(mg/g)$ and $25.1{\pm}4.12$ hesperidine(mg/g), respectively. After fermentation, their values were $89.2{\pm}13.47GAE(mg/g)$ and $31.0{\pm}4.06$ hesperidine(mg/g), respectively. After fermentation, ABTS[2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)] and DPPH(1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical were highly enhanced from $70.2{\pm}9.01$ to $86.2{\pm}3.72$ and $18.7{\pm}1.81$ to $26.6{\pm}4.06$, respectively. Thus microbial fermentation offers a tool to further increase the bioactive potential of Poncirus trifoliata.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to determine new source of Jisil(枳實). Methods : Find out the source of Jisil in the history of herbal medicine. Results : 1. The source of jisil(枳實) is known as the immature fruit of Poncirus trifoliata Rafinesqul(Rutaceae) in the Korean Pharmacopoeia Eight Edition, the dried young fruit of Citrus aurantium L. and its cultivars or Citrus sinensis Osbeck(Fam. Rutaceae) in Pharmacopeia of the people's republic of china(English edition 2000). 2. Until Song dynasty, Jisil is the pericarp of the ripe fruit of Poncirus trifoliata 3. From Myeong dynasty the source of jisil(枳實) turn to the immature fruit of C. wilsonii, C. junos, C. aurantiun var. amara Conclusions : The source of Jisil(枳實) is the ripe fruit of Poncirus trifoliata.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the functional properties of medicinal plant extracts. Four kinds of medicinal plants, Dioscorea batatas(DB), Armeniacae Semen(AS) Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge(CP) and Ponciri Fractus(PF), were extracted with water and 70% ethanol and the extracts were tested for their electron donating ability(EDA), nitrite scavenging ability(NSA) and inhibitory effects on cancer cells(MDA cell and A549 cell)growth. EDA at 100-1,000 ppm of water extract ranged from 3% to 14%, 14% to 36%, 29% to 72% and 14% to 43%, and that of ethanol extract ranged from 9% to 62%, 27% to 59%, 33% to 89% and 14% to 44%, in DB, AS, CP and PF, respectively. NSA of extracts measured at various pH(1.2, 3.0, 4.2, 6.0) showed the highest ability in all extracts at pH 1.2 and decreased with increasing pH. The highest NSA of water extracts of 1,000 ppm at pH 1.2 was 6%, 31%, 55% and 44% and that of ethanol extract was15%, 32%, 69% and 52%, in DB, AS, CP and PF, respectively Inhibition ratio of water and ethanol extracts on MDA cell growth was 24% and 17%, 51% and 93%, 46% and 69%, and 48% and 47%, while that on A549 cell was 18% and 9%, 6% and 3%, 7% and 3%, and 43% and 11%, at 1,000 ppm, in DB, AS, CP and PF, respectively.

탱자나무는 낙엽활엽소교목으로 중국이 원산지며, 우리나라에서는 경기이남 지역에 자생하고 있다. 과거에 탱자나무의 날카로운 가시로 인해 도적을 막고 귀신을 쫓기 위하여 울타리용으로 많이 심었다. 한의학에서는 지실이라고도 하며 건위ㆍ이뇨ㆍ거담ㆍ진통 등에 쓰인다. 그리고 차로도 음용하며 익은 탱자를 지각이라 한다. 최근 들어 탱자가 아토피 피부에 효능이 있다는 보고에 따라 탱자추출물의 염색성을 검토해 보았다. (중략)

It is well known that Poncirus trifoliata harmonizes the Stomach dissipates the Nodules of Liver and manages Vitality. This herb has been used for stomachache, vomitting, nausea, abdominal distension and swelling of testis in the Oriental Medicine. A major components of Poncirus trifoliata consist of a various flavonoids such as poncirin, naringin, hesperidin, neohesperidin, rhoifolin, poncimarin, poncitrin. Generally pharmacological activities of an oriental medicinal drug may be different due to diverse origin, harvest season and storage Period. In this study, we aimed to measure the contents of poncirin and naringin, major flavonoid of this herb, to determine the quality of Poncirus trifoliata.

Purpose: At acupoint pressure, the pressing direction of all acupoints is usually vertical. However, it is not clear whether the vertical direction is toward the belly button or the body's center in the BL52. In this study, the effective direction of acupressure was studied by measuring the pressure pain threshold according to the direction of acupressure in 30 subjects. Methods: The distance from the subject's GV4 to the left and right BL52 and the distance from GV4 to the navel were measured, and then using the ellipse where the left and right BL52 of GV4 pass through the navel, the angles of the navel direction and the body's center were calculated in the left and right BL52. The pressure at the time when the subjects felt pain while pressing the BL52 in two directions was used as the acupressure pain threshold. The pain threshold was measured 3 times at 3 minute intervals on the left and right BL52s of the subject. Results: The acupressure pain threshold measured in the left and right BL52 of the subjects was significantly decreased when pressed toward the trunk center (p < .05). In BL52, it was more sensitive to pressure when the direction of pressure is toward the body's center. Conclusions: Acupressure therapy of acupoint is more sensitive to external stimuli than the surrounding. In this study, acupressure directed toward the trunk center is more efficient than toward the belly button in BL52.
