Cnidium Rhizome is a frequently prescribed herbal medicine in Korea, Japan as well as China, which has been successfully used in these countries for the treatment of diseases related to. gynecology, blood circulations and dental troublers in the name of 천궁. And it is circulated as the same chinese character, which is 천궁, although original plants are different as Cnidium officinale in pharmacopoeia of Korea or Japan and Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort. In that of China. (omitted)

The activity of phase II enzyme in the liver of mice was examined following the application of Cnidium officinale Makino aqua-acupuncture solution (COMAS). The application of COMAS $CV_{12}$ to mice for 7 days increased quinone reductase(QR) activity. The glutathione S-transferase(GST) activity was also increased with COMAS. A greater increase was observed in the glutathione(GSH) levels than in the QR and GST activities.

Allelopathic activity of methanol extract from medicinal plants was determined based on the inhibition of germination, shoot and root length of Echinochloa crus-galli. The response was depended on the source of extracts and concentrations. Of the 20 test plants tested, Cnidium officinale showed most inhibition according to germination, shoot and root length of E. crus-galli. Based on the plant parts, the root extract of C. officinale had more inhibitory effect on E. crus-galli than the stem+leaf extract. Phytotoxic effects of the root extract on E. crus-galli showed 75% inhibition of seed germination, 95% inhibition of shoot growth, and 100% inhibition of root growth at the concentration of 1g/petridish. Sequential partitioning of root extract with organic solvents with increasing polarity showed that the ethylacetate fraction had the greatest inhibitory effect on E. crus-galli. Germination was not inhibited at any rate of ethylacetate fraction but shoot and root growth, were significantly inhibited even at 2mg/petridish. This indicates that the most toxic phytotoxin present in the root extract may be moderate polar compound.

This study was conducted to develop functional sources of herbal cosmetics for treatment of skin aging and inflammatory disorders using volatile flavor extracts of four different herbal medicinal prescriptions including Cnidium officinale Makino (COM), Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN), Mentha arvense L. (MAL), Artemisiae argyi Folium (AAF), Paeonia lactiflora Pall (PLP), Rehmanniae Radix Preparata (RRP), Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (SBG), Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer (PGM), Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch (GUF). The volatile flavor extracts of four different herbal medicinal prescriptions (HH-1: COM, AGN, PLP, RRP, HH-2: COM, AGN, PLP, RRP, SBG, PGM, GUF, HH-3: COM, AGN, MAL, AAF, HH-4: COM, AGN, MAL, AAF, SBG, PGM, GUF) were extracted using SDE and their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects were measured by using DPPH radical and SLO, respectively. As a result, HH-2 showed moderate DPPH radical scavenging activity (68.24 %) and the strongest SLO inhibitory activity (83.96 %) at 100 ${\mu}g$/mL. Moreover, HH-2 of four different prescriptions significantly inhibited NO production on LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner without considerable cell cytotoxicity at range of 2.0 ~ 50 ${\mu}g$/mL. Additionally, HH-2 also effectively suppressed the production of $PGE_2$ and IL-6, which are responsible for promoting the inflammatory process. Major volatile components of HH-2 were identified as eugenol, paeonol, butyl phthalide, ${\beta}$-eudesmol and butylidene dihydrophthalide by GC-MS analysis. Thus, these results suggest that HH-2 may be useful as a potential source of anti-inflammatory agents in herbal medicinal cosmetics.

This study was conducted to improve the productivety of Ligusticum chuanxiong HORT. and Cnidium officinale MAKINO by establishing the effects of cultivating conditions. The highest weight of rhizome and root per plant was 36.5g at $50{\times}25cm$ planting density. Fresh weight of underground parts per plant increased as weight of rhizome increased and it was the highest (67g) at $50{\times}25cm$ while the lowest one(59g) was at $50{\times}15cm$. Fresh weight of underground parts per plant of C. officinale increased as weight of rhizome increased. It was significantly different (53-67g) among the treatments of planting density.

The objective of this study was to investigate the physiological activities of Cnidium officinale Makino extracts on extraction solvents. The yield of ethanol extract, 87.54%, was higher than that of the hot water extract(83.06%) and of the methanol extract(78.32%). In the inhibitory activity of xanthine oxidase, the ethanol extracts and methanol from Cnidium officinale Makino appeared to show significantly higher activity than hot water extract at $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the ethanol and the methanol extracts at $50-2,000{\mu}g/mL$ were 19.96-89.01% and 19.41-88.21%, respectively. The SOD-like activities of all the extracts improved with an increase in the treatment concentration. Both collagenase and elastase inhibitory activities were shown higher from the ethanol and methanol extract compared to that of hot water extract. The tyrosinase inhibitory activity of ethanol extract, 12.04-73.85%($50-2,000{\mu}g/mL$), was higher than that of the other extracts. Taken together, these data suggest that Cnidium officinale Makino extract is effective in whitening and anti-wrinkle effect, thus it might strongly be considered as potential functional cosmetic components.
