  • The insecticide constituents of several Celastraceae family plants including Celastrus angulatus, Celastrus orbiculatus, Celastrus flagellaris, Euonymus verrucosides, Euonymus forunei and Euonymus phellomana were studied by bioassay-guided fractionation. All structures of sesquiterpene polyol esters and alkaloids have been elucidated by UV, IR, MS, NMR and x-ray diffraction evidences. These compounds exhibited insecticidal, antifeedant and narcotic activities against Mythimna separata.

  • Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sieb has been used for cancer theraphy such as Liver cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, and uterine cancer in folk. Eupolyphaga simemsis(ES) extracted from Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sieb increases HDL-C/TC ratio and LCAT activity. TGF-${\beta}$ and Insulin has been Knoen as factors to induce the supression of proliferation of Hep3B, Human hepatoblastoma cell. Plasma HDL3-C involved in carbohydrate methabolism in the liver was maintained in low level by Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sieb. The low level of plasma HDL3-C suppresses the transition from normal liver to Fat liver. Finally, this resuly in suppression of cancer in liver. In this study, Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sieb showed higher cell toxicity in hepatoblastoma cell(Hep3B) compared to the uterine cancer cell(HeLa). This means Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sieb seems not to affect in the all kinds of cancer. In future, we will study whether Euonymus alatus(Thunb.) Sleb have an effect on the liver cancer induced by virus and hepatocellular carcinoma. Also, the mechanims of suppression of cell proliferation in HCC need to investigated.

  • Morphological characteristics of the Eucommia barks produced in Korea and China and of the barks of Euonymus japonicus $T_{HUMBERGI}$ in Korea and Euonymus pellucidifolia $H_{AGATA}$ in Taiwan were compared. The similarity in morphological features between Eucommiae Cortex produced in Korea and that of China suggests that both plants are of same botanical origin. However, the size of tissues and cells indicates that there is only one difference due to warm climatic environment. The similarity and difference of the barks of Euonymus japonicus produced in Korea and Euonymus pellucidifolia produced in Taiwan comfirmed that the two plants belong to the same genus and that they are different species.

  • Euonymus alatus (EAE) and Euonymus alatus for. ciliatodentatus (Franch. & Sav.) Hiyama (EACHE) belong to the Celastraceae family and are one of the medicinal herbs used in traditional medicine as a therapeutic agent for blood circulation diseases. In this study, we prepared leaves methanolic extract of EAE (L-EAE), twigs methanolic extract of EAE (T-EAE), leaves methanolic extract of EACHE (L-EACHE) and twigs methanolic extract of EACHE (T-EACHE), and compared their anti-inflammatory activities. To analyze the anti-inflammatory activities, Raw 264.7 cells were used, since they are immature-macrophages and easily matured by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. All extracts showed anti-inflammatory activities in the activated Raw 264.7 cells. That is, we showed that L-EACHE and T-EACHE are potent inhibitors of the production of nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines. These results are expected to serve as a guide for future studies on the ability of Celastraceae family to inhibit acute and chronic inflammatory diseases.

  • A new species, Euonymus baekdusanensis M. Kim (Celastraceae), has been named and described from Mt. Baekdu of the Korean peninsula. Euonymus baekdusanensis shares several characteristics (4-merous flowers, 4-angled capsule, warted branches and twigs, etc.) with its related species E. verrucosus Scopoli. It is, however, distinct from E. verrucosus which have small oblong leaves (6-7 cm), short petioles (1-2 mm), and small capsules (6-8 mm) by having large elliptical leaves (11-13 cm), long petioles (6-8 mm), and large capsules (12-15 mm).

  • From the bark of Euonymus japonica, ten compounds were isolated by column chromatography and identified as follows. The structures were determined as : (-)-epicatechin, (-)-epigallocatechin, vanillic acid, 2,4-dimethoxyphenol-1-glucoside, 2, 4, 6-trimethoxyphenol-glucoside, 5-caffeoylquinic acid, 4-caffeoyuinic acid, 3, 4-dicaffeoylquinic acid, 3, 5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, and 1, 5-dicaffeoylquinic acid.

  • To investigate the vegetation structure of mountain ridge from Miwangjae to Cheonwhangbong, 11 plots($2000m^2$) set up with random sampling method were surveyed. Three groups of Quercus mongolica community, Quercus mongolica-Styrax japonica community, Q. mongolica-Pinus densiflora community were classified by cluster analysis. Quercus mongolica was a major woody plant species in the ridge area from Miwangjae to Cheonwhangbong, and Styrax japonica and Pinus densiflora was partly occupied. High positive correlations was proved between Prunus sargentii and Euonymus alatus for. ciliato-dentatus; Quercus serrata and Euonymus alatus; Sorbus alnifolia and Euonymus alatus, Magnolia sieboldii; Acer pseudo-sieboldianum and Euonymus alatus for. ciliato-dentatus; Rhododendron schlippenbachii and Euonymus alatus for. ciliato-dentatandus; Euonymus alatus and Lindera obtusiloba, Castanea crenata, Lindera erythrocarpa; Lespedeza bicolor and Rhododendron schlippenbachii; Castanea crenata and Magnolia sieboldii; Magnolia sieboldii and Lindera erythrocarpa, and relatively high negative correlations was proved between Rhododendron schlippenbachii and Euonymus alatus; Lespedeza bicolor and Castanea crenata; Stephanandra incisa and Magnolia sieboldii; Rhododendron yedoense var. poukhanense and Lindera erythrocarpa; Euonymus alatus for. ciliato-dentatus and Magnolia sieboldii; Fraxinus sieboldiana and Sapium japonicum; Prunus sargentii and Lespedeza maximowiczii; Lespedeza maximowiczii and Lindera erythrocarpa. Species diversity(H') of investigated groups was ranged $2.3225{\sim}2.7721$, and it was relatively low value compared to that of mountain ridge area of other national parks.

  • This study investigated the growth characteristics of Euonymus japonicus, Hedera helix, and Peperomia puteolata treated with different calcium chloride (CaCl2) concentrations to evaluate salt tolerance limits in hydroculture cultivation. Six concentrations of CaCl2 (0, 1, 2, 5, 10, and 15 g·L-1 referred to as Cont., C1, C2, C5, C10, and C15) were applied to solution - grown plant species. The survival rate, growth index, plant height, plant width, leaf width, leaf length, number of leaves, and relative chlorophyll contents were measured at monthly intervals. Euonymus japonicus, Hedera helix, and Peperomia puteolata survived up to C2, C5, and C10 at each CaCl2 concentration. The Euonymus japonicus was higher in the C1 treatment than in the Cont. for most growth characteristics. Hedera helix had the highest leaf width, leaf length, and number of leaves in the Cont., a significant difference was observed compared with the C1 treatment. The chlorophyll content did not differ significantly between the C5 and Cont. treatments. The leaf width and length of Peperomia puteolata were greater in the C2 and C1 treatments than in the Cont., whereas the number of leaves and chlorophyll content were the highest in C5. Dry weight analysis revealed that Euonymus japonicus, Hedera helix, and Peperomia puteolata were the lowest in the Cont. treatments. Euonymus japonicus was 74% in C15, and Hedera helix, and Peperomia puteolata were analyzed at approximately 37%- 50% and 9%-14%, respectively, regardless of the concentration in the CaCl2 treatment groups. In indoor hydroponic cultivation, the salt tolerance limit concentrations of Euonymus japonicus, Hedera helix, and Peperomia puteolata are 2, 5, and 10 g·L-1, respectively, indicating that hydroculture management techniques should be applied at higher concentrations.

  • This research was studied to optimize the recipe of rice pound cake with two concentrations of Euonymus alatus and grape seed oil, using central composite design (CCD). The mixing condition of rice pound cake was optimized by subjecting it to sensory evaluation and mechanical and physicochemical analysis, using response surface methodology (RSM). The results of the mechanical and physicochemical analysis showed significant values for color (lightness, redness, yellowness), texture (hardness, springiness, chewiness, gumminess, cohesiveness), loss rate, volume, specific volume, sweetness, saltiness, moisture content and pH (p<0.05). The results of the sensory evaluation showed significant values for color, flavor, taste, softness, appearance and overall quality (p<0.05). As a result, the optimized compounding ratio was found to be 4.28 g of Euonymus alatus and 33.18 g of grape seed oil.
