Antiinflammatory activities of the solvent fractionates of several herbal medicines were investigated and SKI306X was prepared from the active principles of three herbal medicines, Prunella vulgaris, Trichosantlies kirilowii and Clematis mandshurica. SK1306X was shown to have strong inhibitory effects on acetic acid-induced pain, carrageenan-induced paw edema and adjuvant induced arthritis. LD50 of SKI306X was more than 5 g/kg in rat, so generally nontoxic. Chemical analysis revealed that oleanolic acid and rutin, which are known to have various antiinflammatory activities, were contained in it. These results suggest SK1306-X may become a useful drug for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.

Objectives: This study aimed to find out the origin, efficiency in sasang constitutional medicine and dosage of Mu tong. Methods: Investigation and analysis was been done through 15 literatures like the pharmacopoeia of the five countries in east Asia, the literatures about sasang constitutional medicine and so on. Results and conclusion: The species of Mu tong in Korea is identical with the Mu tong in China, but different from Chuan mu tong and Guan mu tong in China. Mu tong is a kind of medicine using by kidney can be use at most 12 qian (about 45g) a day when treating heat closing in small intestine, edema, headache, dysentery and difficult urination on Soyangin(SY).

SKI306X is a herbal extract prepared from three herbs Clematis mandshurica, Trichosanthes kirilowii and Prunella vulgaris. It showed strong antiinflammatory actions on carrageenan-induced edema, acetic acid-induced pain, adjuvant-induced arthritis, and oxygen radical-generated reactions. In this study, the acute toxicity of SKI306X was evaluated in rats by a single oral administration. Thirty male and thirty female rats were divided into 6 groups according to the dose levels, respectively. After oral administration of SKI306X with several doses (5.0 g/kg, 3.3 g/kg, 2.2 g/kg, 1.5 g/kg, 1.0 g/kg), mortality, clinical signs, body weight, and gross findings in organs were examined. No toxic effect was shown in terms of mortality, clinical signs, body weight changes and gross findings. It is suggested the LD$_{50}$ of SKI306X would be more than 5.0 g/kg in rats.s.

This study was performed to investigate the resources flora of Mt. ManRoi(611.7m; 37$^{\circ}$51'N, 127$^{\circ}$ 20'E), during April 1995 to September 1998. The vascular plants, which were collected from the mountain were composed of all 382 taxa including cultivated species, and classified into 1 phylum, 4 classes, 34 orders, 87 families, 254 genera, 323 species, 1 subspecies,55 varieties and 4 forms. There were not rare and endangered species, while 7 taxa of Korean endemic plants, that is, Tricyitis dilatata, Clematis trichotoma, Deutzia coreana, Spiraea prunifolia var, simpliciflora, Forsythia koreana, Weigela subsessilis and Patrinia sanicalaefalia were distributed in this mountain. The vegetation of this investigated area is regarded as the boundary of the temperate middle part and temperate southern part in floral zone of the Korean Peninsula.

(1) Plants in the crater of Halla-San (Mt. Halla), a conical volcano that originated in the Tertiary period, were studied on three different occasions; July 1937, July 1955, and August 1957, and noted 52 familites, 149 species. In the latest study undergone in 1957, the authors collected 108 species. Notable species among them are Geranium Shikokianum Matsum which has not been reported in Korea, Clematis Chiisanensis Nakai, Lactuca Chelidonifolia Makino, and Platanthera Maximowiczana Schelchter which have not been reported in Jeu-Do(Island) so far. (2) Plants in To-Do(Island), territorial island of Jeju-do, were also studied. The authors noted Canavalia lineata D.C.non-reported Species in Korea, usually distributed along Southern Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu of Japna, Ryukyu and Taiwan. The overfall flora of the island is composed of 30 families, 44 Species; 5 Species of wood plants and 39 species of herbs, and is mostly of littoral plants.

Joins (SKI 306X) is now clinically used for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). In previous reports, Joins, a natural herbal product extracted from three herbs Clematis Radix, Trichosanthes Radix and Prunella Flos, was shown to have good analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects and cartilage protective effects in several experimental models. In this study we characterized the effects of Joins on the gastric mucosa and compared to that of diclofenac. (omitted)

This study was carried out to illuminate the floras of vascular plants of Mt. Eungbongsan in Yeongwol-gun. This study was conducted from April to October, 2011. Based on the voucher specimens, vascular plants in this area consisted of 89 families, 288 genera, 405 species, 3 subspecies, 43 varieties, and 7 forms, totally 458 taxa. 16 species were endemic to Korea such as Cirsium setidens, Saussurea macrolepis, Salvia chanroenica, Anemone koraiensis, Clematis brachyura, Clematis trichotoma, Populus tomentiglandulosa, Salix dependens, Salix koriyanagi, Chrysosplenium flaviflorum, Philadelphus schrenckii, Lysimachia coreana, Lonicera subsessilis, Weigela subsessilis, Paulownia coreana, and Corydalis maculata. Ten taxa were rare plants as designated by Korea Forest Service such as Anemone koraiensis, Eranthis stellata, Aristolochia contorta, Rodgersia podophylla, Lysimachia coreana, Syringa wolfii, Lloydia triflora, Streptopus ovalis, Salvia chanroenica, and Carpinus tshonoskii. Plants specially designated by the Ministry of Environment in phytogeographic categories totaled 87 taxa including 39 taxa of grade I, 14 taxa of grade II, 19 taxa of grade III, 14 taxa of grade IV and 1 taxon grade V. Naturalized plants consisted of 8 families with 28 taxa that made up 6.1% of the total vascular plants in this area. Naturalized plants have not strongly influenced the Mt. Eungbongsan vegetation.
