Objective : Allergic rhinitis(AR) is an inflammation or irritaion of nasal mucosa. Usually, serum cytokine is regarded as one of the most important factors in AR. Coisis semen have been used for the diseases in digestive organs in traditional chinese medicine. Nowaday, there were some studies reported about the effects of coisis semens on serum cytokine. However the results of theses studies were varies, and moreover there was no study which have used AR animal model. Therefore this study is aimed to determine therapeutic effects of coisis semen extract by observing changes of serum cytokine(IgE, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-13) with AR animal model. Methods : Thirty BALB/c mice were divided into six groups : Normal group, Control group, sample I, sample II, sample III, sample IV. Except for Normal group, all the mice in other 5 groups were sensitized intraperionealy by 0.1% ovalbumin solution three times at intervals of one week. Then intranasal sensitization was performed by diffusing 0.1% ovalbumin solution three times at intervals of two days. Normal group were used Normal Saline instead of ovalbumin solution. After the first day of study, sample I, sample II, sample III, and sample IV were orally administrated coisis semen extract by 100mg/kg, 200mg/kg, 500mg/kg, and 1g/kg respectively for 28days. Then, the changes of serum IgE, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-13 were observed in 6 groups. We used the statistical methods of ANOVA, post hoc by duncun, and Kruskal-Wallis test(p<0.05) Results : There were statistical changes in IgE and TNF-${\alpha}$. But, there were no statistical changes in IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-13 and IFN-${\gamma}$. Conclusions : According to above results, it is supposed that coisis semen extract has not some significant effects on cytokine of AR animal model. There was no evidence for using coisis semen in relieving symptoms of allergic rhinitis.

Objectives: This study was on the pharmaceutical components in purified ginseng total saponin (GTS), coisis semen (CS), the combination of these drugs, and the major component of coicis coixol for the prevention and treatment of obesity. Methods: In this study, to evaluate the effect on the suppression of obesity, high fat diet-induced obese rats were treating with the drugs, the effects on the balance of energy and diet activity were examined, and the change of weight, the change of the intake of diet, body fat rate, etc. were assessed. Results: The results demonstrate that in high fat diet-induced obese white rats, the combination treatment of ginseng total saponin and coicis was effective in suppression of weight gain, reduction of intake of food, and reduction of body fat. Conclusions: The results suggest that a combination treatment with major components of red ginseng total saponin and coicis may be used therapeutically for the suppression and treatment of obesity.

의이인과 염주는 동속 근연종으로 외부형태가 유사하고 종피를 깎아 유통하기 때문에 육안으로 식별하기에는 한계가 있다. 특히, 염주는 일부 수입품에서 의이인과 비슷한 크기로 염주 종피를 깎아 유통시키고 있어 진 위 판별에 논란이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 의이인의 유통품을 외부 형태적 특징으로만 식별하기 어려운 문제를 해결하고자 내부형태 특성조사와 정색반응, RAPD등을 이용하여 감별을 위한 기초자료로 이용하고자 한다. 1. 의이인의 과피는 석세포로 구성된 층과 대보강세포와 섬유상 보강세포로 이루어진 2층 구조로 구분되는 반면, 염주의 과피는 외과피와 내과피는 석세포로 이루어져 있고 중앙의 중과피는 대보강세포와 섬유상 보강세포로 구성되어 뚜렷한 3층의 구조로 이루어진다. 2. TLC를 이용한 확인시험에서 Hexane : EtoAc = 10 : 1의 조건으로 전개하였을때 중국산 염주에서는 Rf가 0.2에서만 밴드가 형성되었다. 3. 중국의 "상용중약감정대전(常用中藥鑑定大典)"에서 제시된 요오드반응법에 의한 의이인과 염주의 정색반응은 구별이 어려웠다. 4. RAPD 분석에서 8개 primer에서 품종간 다형성 밴드가 관찰되었고, UBC primer 355와 362에서 중국 염주와 의성 염주의 특이 밴드(500bp, 1300bp)가 관찰되었다.

This study was carried out to know the effect of Geopungjeseup-tang(GPJST) to on Rheumatoid Arthritis by using human fibroblast-like synoviocytes(hFLS). GPJST consists of Coisis Semen, Coccllus Trilobus DC., Lycopi Herba, Arisaematis Rhizoma. The author peformed several experimetal items : that is cytotoxicity of GPJST, mRNA expression of TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-1${\beta}$, ICAM-1, production of NO. The results were obtained as follows : The mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-1${\beta}$, ICAM-1 were dose-dependently reduced in hFLS. The production of NO was reduced. Talking all these observations into account, GPJST is considered to be effective in treating rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore we have to survey continuously in looking for the effective substance and mechanism in the future.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to find out herb-pair prototype composed of Aconiti Radix(烏頭) or Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix(附子) written in ancient chinese medical classics. Methods : To search usages of Aconiti Radix and/or Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix, we have investigated the classics of herb and prescription such as "Fifty-two kinds of Diseases"("五十二病方"),"WuWeiHanDaiYiJian" ("武威漢代醫簡"),"Treatise on Febrile Caused by Cold"("傷寒論"),"Synopsis of Prescriptions of The Golden Chamber"("金匱要略"). Results : There were three herb pairs of Aconiti Radix and/or Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix in "Fifty-two kinds of Diseases", four herb pairs of it in "WuWeiHanDaiYiJian", eight herb pairs of it in "Treatise on Febrile Caused by Cold", and five herb pairs of it in "Synopsis of Prescriptions of The Golden Chamber". Conclusions : 1. Aconiti Radix herb-pairs written in ancient chinese medical classics are as follows ; Cinnamomi Cortex(桂), Arsenopyritum(礜) and Veratri Nigri Rhizoma et Radix(藜蘆). Zanthoxyli Fructus(蜀椒), Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix(附子), honey(蜜) and Asari Radix(細辛). 2. Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix(附子) herb-pairs written in ancient chinese medical classics are as follows ; Zanthoxyli Fructus(蜀椒), Paeonia Radx(芍藥), Ephedrae Herba(麻黃), Zingiberis Rhizoma(乾薑), Zingiberis Rhizoma(乾薑)-Allii Radix(葱白), Cinnamomi Cortex(桂), Atractylodis Rhizoma White(白朮), Poria(茯苓), Atractylodis Rhizoma White(白朮)-Poria(茯苓) and Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix(秦艽), Coisis semen(薏苡仁), Pinelliae Rhizoma(半夏). 3. In "Fifty-two kinds of Diseases"only Aconiti Radix was used and in "Treatise on Febrile Caused by Cold"only Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix was used, but in "WuWeiHanDaiYiJian"and "Synopsis of Prescriptions of The Golden Chamber"both herbs were used. 4. Method for reducing toxicity of Aconiti Radix and Aconiti Lateralis Preparata Radix was found in "Treatise on Febrile Caused by Cold"and "Synopsis of Prescriptions of The Golden Chamber".
