Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the synergistic effect of Angelicae gigantis Radix (AG) and Lycii fructus (LF) ethanol extracts on skin-whitening effects. Method : LFAG extracts were prepared by extracting with 80% ethanol. The efficacy of LFAG was judged by measurement of cell viability, tyrosinase activity, melanin production, tyrosinase and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) expression in B16F10 murine melanoma cells by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) treatment. Results : Each extract (LF or AG) inhibited the tyrosinase activity in a dose-dependent manner. The co-treatment of LFAG extracts ($25{\mu}g/mL$ LF plus $25{\mu}g/mL$ AG) markedly suppressed the LPS-induced cellular tyrosine activity, melanin production, tyrosinase and MMP-1 expression in B16F10 murine melanoma cells. These suppressive effects were synergistically increased by their combination. Conclusions : With these observations, we suggest that the extracts from Lycii fructus and Angelica gigantis Radix could be potent natural materials for whitening skin.

Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the collagen metabolism and tyrosinase activity of Angelicae Gigantis Radix extracts (AGR). Methods : The effect of AGR on type I procollagen production and collagenase activity in human normal fibroblasts HS68 after UVB (312 nm) irradiation was measured by ELISA method. The tyrosinase activity after treatment of AGR was measured. Results : Type I procollagen production was recovered by AGR in UVB damaged HS68 cells. The increased collagenase activity after UVB damage was significantly recovered by AGR and the tyrosinase activity was significantly reduced. However, the L-DOPA oxidation was not changed. Conclusion : AGR showed the anti-wrinkle effects and whitening effects in vitro. These results suggest that AGR may have potential as an anti-aging ingredient in cosmetic herbs.

This study was performed to elucidate the influence on the plasma decursinol concentration after administration of combined decursin and Cnidii Rhizoma or decurisin and Bupleuri Radix extracts in comparison with single decursin administration. The identification of decursinol isolated from Angelica gigas was carried out by GC/MS and the concentration of decursinol in the plasma after oral administration was determined by HPLC. The value of area under the plasma concentration (AUC) and the maximal concentration (Cmax) of decursinol after administration of methanol and ether Angelicae Gigantis Radix extract was higher than those of single decursin-treated group. It was also found that the AUC and the Cmax of decursinol after combined administration with decursin and Cnidii Rhizoma were higher than those of decursin administration, whereas those of combined with decursin and Bupleuri Radix was lower. Moreover, the studies were performed with decursinol only or with combined decursinol and Cnidii Rhizoma/Bupleuri Radix, both of combined treatment increased the plasma decursinol concentrations compared with decursinol-treated group in rats. On the basis of these results, it is concluded that co-existing substances or co-administration with other drugs may influence the plasma levels of decurisinol after oral administration.

Purpose : To compare the skin damage recovery efficacy of natural Angelicae Gigantis Radix extract (N-AGR) and cultivated A. Gigantis Radix extract (C-AGR). Through this, we confirmed whether the quality standards of herbal medicines recorded in the classic books make a difference in the experimental efficacy using epithelial cells. Methods : The quality standards of medicinal herbs in the classic books and the cultivation and processing conditions of two types of A. gigas were compared. After inducing oxidative stress with H₂O₂, cytoprotective property of N-AGR and C-AGR were evaluated through cell viability. Additionally, after wound formation of epithelial JB6 cells, N-AGR and C-AGR were treated to evaluate wound healing efficacy. Result : The natural A, gigas met the excellent quality standards of the classic books. N-AGR inhibited cell death by oxidative stress induced by H₂O₂, and was superior to C-AGR. Both N-AGR and C-AGR showed dose-dependent wound healing efficacy, but N-AGR was significantly superior to C-AGR. Conclusions : Through the oxidative stress of skin and skin wound healing efficacy experiments using epithelial cells, natural A. gigas showed superior efficacy compared to cultivated A. gigas.

This study was attempted to investigate the effect of 'Angelicae gigantis Radix extract (AG.EX.)' and 'Angelicae acutilobae Radix extract (AA.EX.)' on the activities of GOT, GPT and alkaline phosphatase (A1.P), the contents of total cholesterol in serum of $CCl_4$ and D-galactosamine intoxicated rats, and the weight change ratio of body, liver and spleen in $CCl_4-intoxicated-rats$ by administering the extract of 300 and 500 mg/kg P.O.. Significant test was performed by comparision with the biochemical values between intoxicated-control group and extract-administered group. The activities of s-GOT, s-GPT and the contents of total cholesterol elevated by $CCl_4-intoxication$ were significantly decreased in all dose (300, 500 mg/kg) of Angelicae gigantis Radix-water extract (AG.WEX.) and alcohol extract (AG.AEX), and Angelica acutilobae Radix-water extract (AA.WEX.) and alcohol extract (AA.AEX.), respectively, as compared with the control group. And administered group of 300 mg/kg showed more significant decreasing effect than 500 mg/kg, and more significantly decreased in water extract of AG.EX. and ethanol extract of AA.EX. But in the activities of s-A1.P. inhibition effect were significantly decreased only in a dose of 300 mg/kg of AA.WEX. and AA.AEX. The activities of s-GOT and s-GPT elevated by D-galactosamine were not decreased in all samples, as compared to intoxicated-control group. But the activities of s-Al.p was significantly decreased as compared with control groups, in all samples and administration of 300 mg/kg was more significantly decreased than 500 mg/kg. The contents of total cholesterol remarkably decreased than the normal groups by D-galactosamine intoxication was not recovered in all samples. The increasing rate of the body weight increased by $CCl_4-intoxication$ were not decreased than the $CCl_4-control$ group in all sample groups. The increasing rate of liver weight increased by $CCl_4-intoxication$ were significantly decreased in 300 mg/kg of AA.AEX.AG.WEX. and AA.WEX., respectively, as compared with $CCl_4-control$ group.

Objectives : We compared with the effects of different parts (root head, root body and hairy root) of Angelica gigas Nakai (Angelicae Gigantis Radix, AG) with on middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)-induced ischemic rats, and on LPS-induced inflammatory response in BV2 microglia. Methods : The 30% ethanol and water extracts of different parts of AG were prepared. Each extract (50 and 100 mg/kg) was administrated intraperitoneally once in MCAO-induced ischemic rats. We measured infarction volumes by TTC staining, and investigated the expression of iNOS, Bax, Bcl-2 and caspase-3 by Western blot. BV2 cells were treated with each extract for 30 min, and then stimulated with LPS. The levels of NO was measured by Griess assay. The expression of iNOS, Cox-2 and proinflammatory cytokines ($TNF-{\alpha}$, $IL-1{\beta}$, and IL-6) were determined RT-PCR and Western blot. The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and JNK MAPK was determined by Western blot. Results : Among different parts of AG, the 30% ethanol and water extracts of hairy root significantly decreased infarction volume in ischemic brains and inhibited the expression of iNOS, bax and caspase-3. The extracts of hairy root significantly inhibited LPS-induced production of NO, $TNF-{\alpha}$ and IL-6 in BV2 cells, and suppressed the expression of iNOS and COX-2. The hairy root extracts attenuated LPS-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and JNK MAPK in BV2 cells. Conclusions : Our results indicate that the root hairy of AG has a good neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects in ischemic stroke compared to other parts.
