  • Mugwort, Artemisia princeps Pampanini, has been used as natural medicine traditionally in the far east countries including Korea. This study was performed with the object of provoding basic data an leaf quality improvement in mugwort. The 210 mugwort were collected in 48 locations from 2004 to 2006, leaves of 210 genotypes collected were analyzed for eupatilin, jaceosidin and sesamin content. The eupatilin content was averaged to 43.8mg (100 g leaves) and ranged from 0 to 228.0 mg. The average jaceosidin and sesamin contents were 12.8 mg and 3.58 mg and the ranges of those were 0 to 73.8 mg and 0 to 6.56 mg, respectively. The eupatilin content of mugwort harvested in the western region was higher compared with those harvested in the resemble altitude of the southern and eastern of Korea.

  • Three stigmastane-type sterols and one ergostane-type sterol were isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of the aerial parts of Artemisia princeps Pampanini (Sajuarissuk). From the results of physico-chemical data including NMR, MS and IR, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as $stigmasta-5,22-dien-3,{\beta}-ol (stigmasterol, 1),stigmast-5-en-3{\beta}-ol({\beta}-sitosterol,2), 5{\beta},8{\beta}-epidioxy-5{\beta},8{\beta}-ergosta-6,22-dien-3{\beta}-ol(ergosterol peroxide, 3),\;and\;{\beta}-sitosterol\;3-O-{\beta}D-glucopyranoside(daucosterol,4)$.

  • To search for immunoactive natural products exerting anti-inflammatory activity, we have evaluated the effects on the water extracts of Artemisia princeps Pampanini (APP) on lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$ (TNF-$\alpha$), and prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) production by RAW 264.7 macrophage cell line. Our data indicate that this extract is a potent inhibitor of NO production and it also significantly decreased PGE2 and TNF-$\alpha$ production. Consistent with these results, the protein and mRNA expression level of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was inhibited by water extracts of APP in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that APP may exert anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects possibly by suppressing the inducible NO synthase and COX-2 expressions.

  • The purposes of this dissertation were to examine relativity between growth characteristics factors and develop the model of growth characteristics. In the result of statistical summaries of the factors in growth characteristic, the highest level of correlation was in plant height, plant width, petiole and chlorophyll in the case of Artemisia iwayomogi; leaf length, in the case of A. stolonifera;, leaf width, of A. princeps var. orientalis;, diameter, of A. feddei;, leaf thickness, of A. iwayomogi, A. princeps var. orientalis, A. montana, A. stolonifera, A. sylnatica; leaf length and leaf width of the other species. In the case of correlation analysis, leaf width and diameter were most correlative in A. capillaris;, plant height and plant width, in A. montana; plant height and leaf width, in A. stolonifera; leaf length and leaf width, in other species. The results of model analysis of growth characteristics were as follows. A. capillaris proved to be about $79.4\%$ effective ; A. princeps var. orientalis, about $91.7\%$ ; A. montana, about $70.3\%$ ; A. iwayomogi, about $49.0\%$ ; A. stolonifera, about $72.5\%$; A. sylnatica, about $75.0\%$;, A. feddei about $60.4\%$ ; A. rubripes about $54.0\%$.

  • Antiallergic activities of two variants of Artemisia princeps Pampanini SJ-1 (named as Sajabalssuk) and SS-1 (named as Sajuarissuk) cultivated in Ganghwado, which contain high content of eupatilin compared to those cultured by other places, were investigated to evaluate the possibility as inhibitors against allergic diseases. Ethanol and supercritical fluid extracts of SJ-1 and SS-1 inhibited the release of ${\beta}-hexosaminidase$ from RBL-2H3 cells, although their water extracts were inactive. These extracts potently inhibited lipopolysaccharide-induced NO production of RAW264.7. However, these extracts almost did not scavenge free radicals. Oral administration of these extracts to mice inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reaction induced by IgE, and acute dermatitis induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. However, these extracts did not inhibit chronic dermatitis. Scratching behaviors, vascular permeability, and writhing syndromes were weakly inhibited by these extract at a dose of 50 mg/kg. Based on these findings, we believe that SJ-1 and SS-1 can improve IgE-induced allergic diseases such as rhinitis and asthma.

  • Antimicrobial activity of methanol extract and fraction from mugwort leaves(Artemisia princeps val. orientalis) was investigated for the screening of natural antiwucroblal components. By using agar diffusion method, ethyl acetate(EtOAc) layer fractionated from methanol extract of mugwort leaves showed the highest inhibitory effects against tested microorganisms. The ortho-coumaric acid(200∼600ppm) isolated from EtOAc layer showed strong antibacterial activities for Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella typhimurium. As derivatives of o-coumaric acid, antibacterial activity of para-coumaric acid was 1.2∼1.7 fold higher than that of o-coumaric acid. Three types of coumaric acids strong inhibited the growth of B. subtilis in the culture medium. Growth of S. tyhimurium, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus were effectively inhibited by o-, m- and p-coumaric acids, respectively. Minimum inhibitory dose of p-coumaric acid for B. subtilis was $\100∼200mu\textrm{g}$/paper disk.

  • This study investigated the chemical composition of Artemisia princeps var. orientalis (Pampan) Hara (ssuk in Korea) essential oil and the quantitative changes of major terpene compounds according to the time of harvest. The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation extraction from the aerial parts of ssuk were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The essential oil composition of ssuk was characterized by higher contents of mono- and sesqui- terpene compounds. Ninety-nine volatile flavor compounds were identified in the essential oil from ssuk harvested in 2010, with camphor (11.9%), ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ (9.11%), dehydrocarveol (8.51%), and borneol (7.72%) being the most abundant compounds. Eighty-three compounds were identified in the essential oil from the plant harvested in 2011, with borneol (12.36%), caryophyllene oxide (12.29%), ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ (10.24%), camphor (9.13%), and thujone (8.4%) being the most abundant compounds. Eighty-four compounds were identified in the essential oil from the plant harvested in 2012, with ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ (20.25%), caryophyllene oxide (14.63%), and thujone (11.55%) being the major compounds. Eighty-nine compounds were identified in the essential oil from the plant harvested in 2013, with thujone (23.11%), alloaromadendrene oxide (12.3%), and ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ (11.48%) being the most abundant compounds. Thujone and aromadendrene oxide contents increased significantly from 2010 to 2013, while camphor and dehydrocarveol contents decreased significantly during those 4 years. The quantitative changes in these 4 compounds according to the time of harvest can served as a quality index for ssuk essential oil. The ecological responses to recent climate changes may be reflected in the chemical components of natural plant essential oils.
