Radix Angelicae Gigantis is sweet and pungent in flavor, warm in property. Its effects are tonifying the blood, promoting blood circulation, relieving pain and moistening the bowels. Its indications are blood deficiency syndrome characterized by sallow complexion, dizziness, irregular menstruation, amenorrhea, pains due to blood stasis, and rheumatic arthralgia. Using genes of A. gigas, A. acutiloba, and A. sinensis, the origin of which is identified, as criteria, we analysed many kinds of Angelica with RAPD and RFLP on ITS region, in order to compare and discriminate genes extracted from crude drugs ‘Dang-gui’, that are produced in Korea on the one hand and imported on the other hand. We reached the following conclusion. 1. We could extract DNA from both original plant and dried plant. 2. Especially Uniprimer #1, Uniprimer #2, Uniprimer #4 and Uniprimer ＃9 were useful. 3. Among the restriction enzymes Sma I, Msp I, Hae III, and Hinf I, used in this experiment, four restriction enzymes except Hinf I could be used properly in discriminating all samples used as A. gigas. We think that this result can be used as a method of discriminating crude drug of Angelica L. related drugs, and used in controlling quality and circulation.

Objectives : In this study, we aimed to analyze the latest knowledge of pityriasis rosea(PR) through oriental-western medical review on PR. Methods : We searched Pubmed, CNKI, and OASIS to select papers related to the cause, mechanism, diagnosis, classification, treatment, and herbal treatment of PR. Results : The results are as follows. 1. Although the exact cause of PR is not known, it has recently been found that reactivation of latent human herpesvirus-6 and human herpesvirus-7 infection is a possible etiology. Most patients require emollients, antihistamines, topical steroids, and macrolides. Acyclovir, and narrow-band UVB therapy are also used. 2. The cause and mechanism of PR in Chinese and Korean medicine can be mainly summarized as wind-heat, blood heat, and blood deficiency and wind-dryness. Most of the herbal medicine used have the effects of clearing heat, cooling the blood, detoxifying, dispelling wind, relieving itching, nourishing blood, and moistening dryness. Conclusions : In Chinese and Korean medicine, it is necessary to organize the representative prescriptions according to pattern identification, and it is also necessary to study the atypical types of PR and its treatment methods. It is thought that research on oriental and western combination therapy should be continuously conducted, and efforts to develop Korean medicine formulations are needed to revitalize clinical research in Korea.

I selected the theory of blood stasis and wetness-phlegm among the major 4 causes of Joong Poong(C.V.A.)(wind. fire. deficiency of vital energy and wetness-phlegm) and recent etiology of blood stasis. An experimental studies were done to investigate the effects of Danggieum (removing blood stasis and promoting blood circulation) and Ijintang(dissipating wetness-phlegm) on thrombosis and elevated blood viscosity. The results were as follows; 1. The number of platelets were significantly increased in only Danggieum group. 2. Related to the amount of fibrinogen. only Danggieum group revealed some increase. but both groups revealed no significance. 3. Related to the prothrombin time. Danggieum and Ijintang groups had significant decrease. but Danggieum group revealed more significance. 4. Related to the degree of concentration of FDP, only Danggieum group had significant decrease. 5. Whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity in lower shear rates. both groups of Danggieum and Ijintang had significant decrease. 6. Related to the amount of RBC. both groups of Danggieum and Ijintang had significant decrease. 7. Related to the change of hematocrit. only Danggieum group, and the change of hemoglobin. only Ijintang group had significant decrease. 8. Related to the change of body temperature. only Ijintang group had significant raise. 9. Related to the changes of WBC. glucose, albumin, total protein and body weight. Danggieum and Ijintang groups had each increase or decrease. but no significance. According to the above results, Danggieum had more significant effect than Ijintang on the thrombosis. and Ijintang had more significant effect than Danggieum on the elevated blood viscosity. And it is considered that it might be more effective in treating Joong-Poong(C.V.A) to take medicines regarding patient's constitution and symptoms as well as the causes of Joong-Poong(C.V.A)

Jaeumgenby-tang(JGT) have been used in oriental medicine for many centries as a a therapeutic agent of vertigo caused by deficiency of qi and blood. The effects of JGT on the regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), mean arterial blood pressure(MABP) and cardiac muscle contractile force(CMF) is not known. The purpose of this Study was to investigate effects of JGT on the rCBF, MABP, CMF and mechanism of JGT induced changed rCBF, MABP, CMF. The changes of rCBF, MABP and CMF were determinated by Laser-Doppler Flowmetry(LDF). The results were as follows; JGT extract was increased rCBF, MABP and CMF in a dose-dependent, specially JGT extract was significantly increased rCBF and MABP. Pretreatment with propranolol was significantly inhibited JGT induced increase of rCBF but pretreatment with indomethacin and methylene blue were accelerated JGT induced increase of rCBF. Pretreatment with propranolol and indomethacin were inhibited JGT induced increase of MABP, but pretreatment with methylene blue was accelerated JGT induced increase of MABP. Pretreatment with propranolol was significantly inhibited JGT induced increase of CMF but pretreatment with indomethacin and methylene blue were accelerated JGT induced increase of CMF. This results suggest that JGT increased rCBF by increasing MABP and CMF and the action of JGT is mediated by adrenergic β-receptor.

The selenium status of beef cattle in the southern part of Thailand and the selenium concentration of soil and herbage consumed by those animals were investigated. Samples were collected from three areas with different soil types, namely, sandy soil, peat soil and laterite soil. The selenium concentration of soil, herbage and blood plasma showed a similar tendency; the values of laterite soil were higher than those of the other two areas. However, the selenium concentration of herbage of each pasture was lower than the NRC requirement, and that of blood plasma was not in the sufficient level. These data suggested that beef cattle raised in these areas were in the chronic selenium deficiency. We concluded that selenium supplementation is needed for the increase of animal productivity in the southern part of Thailand.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type III (MPS III or Sanfilippo syndrome) is a multisystem lysosomal storage disease that is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. It consists of four subtypes (MPS IIIA, B, C, and D), each characterized by the deficiency of different enzymes that catalyze the metabolism of the glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate at the lysosomal level. The typical clinical manifestation of MPS III includes progressive central nervous system (CNS) degeneration with accompanying systemic manifestations. Disease onset is typically before the age of ten years and death usually occurs in the second or third decade due to neurological regression or respiratory tract infections. However, there is currently no treatment for CNS symptoms in patients with MPS III. Invasive and non-invasive techniques that allow drugs to pass through the blood brain barrier and reach the CNS are being tested and have proven effective. In addition, the application of genistein treatment as a substrate reduction therapy is in progress.

Blood glucose and immunoreactive insulin (IRI) were measured during oral glucose tolerance test in 15 thyrotoxic patients and 8 normal controls, to study the glucose metabolism in thyrotoxicosis. Following were the results; 1. In thyrotoxicosis, there is noticed late rise and late fall of plasma IRI durnig oral glucose tolerance test, like as phenomenon of mild diabetes mellitus. 2. When the thyrotoxic patients were divided into normal and abnormal responsive groups after the level of blood glucose by Wilkerson Criteria, no significant differences in plasma IRI levels were noticed between two groups. 3. This result may be interpreted as relative deficiency of insulin secretion from panceas and suggest genetically related defects.
