Roots of Rumex crispus (Rc) (Polygonaceae) has been used as therapeutic agents of acute and chronic cutaneous diseases, cathartics, fever and jaundice in folk medicines. Recently, Seeds of Rc has known as a digestive, an anticancer agent and a remedy of acute hepatitis, among many traditional folk medicines. So far it isn't reported about pharmacological effects of Rumecis Semen. The present study describes the preliminary evaluations of biological activities, anti-inflammatory activity (AA, Carrageenan) analgesic activity (writhing test), and hepatoprotective activities ($CCl_4$), of its methanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and butanol fraction. Among them butanol fraction showed the highest activity in analgesic acivity.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV)는 전 세계적으로 약 3억 5천만 명이 만성적으로 보균하고 있으며, 한국에서도 보건의학적으로 가장 중요하여 높은 간암의 발병율과도 밀접한 관련이 있다. 최근에 와서 HBV가 유도하는 임상적 위험질환의 병태생리에 대해서 면역학적 지식의 발전을 바탕으로 이해가 깊어졌는데, 바이러스 자체보다는 인체의 다양한 면역반응이 질병의 경과에 더욱 중요하다. 이러한 사실로 한의학적 치료법의 과학적 연구는 만성 HBV 보균자들에게 효과적인 치료방법으로 적용될 것으로 기대될 수 있는데, 우선 여기서는 전형적으로 HBV와 관련해서 의학적 문제를 모두 가지고 있는 한 가족을 통해서 HBV에 대한 폭넓은 이해에 도움을 얻고자한다.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the sixth most prevalent cancer worldwide, continues to have high prevalence in many countries of Asia. The main challenge is the high prevalence of chronic hepatitis and aflatoxin, for example in China. HBV vaccination should be the major preventive tactic in Asian countries. The burden of HCC is low in Iran because most cases are due to HBV and this infection was less common. Although in Iran, a mass vaccination program started in 1993, its impact on decreasing the burden of HCC due to HBV can only be expected in future decades.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism(SNP)는 인간 유전자 서열의 0.1%에 해당하는 부분으로 이는 각 개인의 체질 및 각종 유전질환과 밀접한 관련이 있다고 알려져 있다. 최근 이 SNP정보의 패턴을 이용 질병의 진단 및 치료에 연관지으려는 노력이 시도되고 있다. 그러나 아직 SNP를 이용한 효율적인 분석방법에 대한 전산학적 연구는 많지 않다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 패턴인식기 중 하나인 Support Vector Machine(SVM)을 이용 한국인의 대표적인 유전질환으로 알려진 만성간염에 대해서 관련된 SNP에 대한 패턴 인식율 측정을 실험하였다. 실험 데이터는 간 및 소화기 질환 유전체 센터에서 얻어진 만성간염 환자와 관련 SNP정보를 사용하였으며, 실험 결과 전체 SNP 정보를 모두 가지는 환자그룹에 대한 학습인식율이 66.46%로 나타났으며, 부분그룹에서는 72.91%로 높은 인식율을 보였다. 이 결과는 SNP 정보를 이용한 만성간염의 초기진단예측에 SVM을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있음을 보인다.

We encountered a patient with heavy Hymenolepis nana infection. The patient was a 44-year-old Korean man who had suffered from chronic hepatitis (type B) for 15 years. A large number of H. nana adult worms were found during colonoscopy that was performed as a part of routine health screening. The parasites were scattered throughout the colon, as well as in the terminal ileum, although the patient was immunocompetent. Based on this study, colonoscopy may be helpful for diagnosis of asymptomatic H. nana infections.

A case of chronic cholangiohepatitis associated with Eimeria spp. is reported in a 6-month-old, male, native Korean goat. The goat died after having a 1-week history of diarrhea, anorexia and weight loss. At necropsy, numerous multifocal to coalescing, pale and mottled red foci were present throughout the liver. Histologically, numerous coccidian parasites in both sexual and asexual stages were found in the intrahepatic biliary epithelia and bile duct lumens. Based on the light microscopic and ultrastrastructural features, the parasites present in the liver were compatible with the genus Eimeria ; however, the species was not speciated.

1. Hepatic ascariasis represented by milk spots on the liver surface was found in 475(31.7%) out of 1,500 pigs. 2. For histopathological studies, 170 cases were collected at random from the milk spotted liver From these cases ascaris larva was found in 14 cases(8.2%). 3. Grossly, the occurrence of milk spots was not confined to any particular lobes of the liver. The lesions, however, were more frequently found in the diaphragmatic surface than in the visceral surface. The extent of the spots was limited to the subcapsular region and the deeper tissue was not affected. 4. Histologically, hemorrhage and eosinophilic infiltration were observed in the area invaded by the larva. The increase of connective tissue followed by a form of chronic lymphocytic hepatitis was observed at the late stage of infection. There was numerous eosinophilic infiltration around the larva trapped in the liver tissue. Consequently, encapsulation of the larva was followed by organization and calcification.

Interferon has therapeutic potential for a wide range of infectious and proliferous disorders such as chronic hepatitis C. However, it has drawbacks such as relatively short serum half-life and rapid clearance like other therapeutic proteins. The attachment of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety to interferon is considered as one of the most promising solutions for its ability to extend the plasma residence time.(omitted)

Cholestasis results from impairment in the excretion of bile, which may be due to mechanical obstruction of bile flow or impairment of excretion of bile components into the bile canaliculus. When present, cholestasis warrants prompt diagnosis and treatment. The differential diagnosis of cholestasis beyond the neonatal period is broad and includes congenital and acquired etiologies. It is imperative that the clinician differentiates between intrahepatic and extrahepatic origin of cholestasis. Treatment may be supportive or curative and depends on the etiology. Recent literature shows that optimal nutritional and medical support also plays an integral role in the management of pediatric patients with chronic cholestasis. This review will provide a broad overview of the pathophysiology, diagnostic approach, and management of cholestasis beyond the neonatal and infancy periods.

Interferon has therapeutic potential for a wide range of infectious and proliferative disorders such as chronic hepatitis C and malignant melanoma. However. it has some therapeutic problems as other protein therapeutics do. A variety of approaches have been developed to circumvent these problems. Among them. the attachment of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety 10 interferon is considered as one of the most promising solutions for its ability of extending the plasma residence time. (omitted)
