Previously, a 50% aqueous methanol extract of Galla rhois was shown to be the most potent tyrosinase inhibition activity with an {TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}(the concentration causing 50% inhibition of tyrosinase activity) of 0.2mg/ml of 205 crude drug extracts. To isolate tyrosinase inhibitors, the methanol extract was evaporated to a small volume in vacuo, and then partitioned stepwise with benzene and ethyl acetate(EtOAc). the EtOAc fraction was solubilized in 10% MeOH solution, and then fractionated successively by Diaion HP-20 and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and preparative HPLC. Three phenolic compounds were isolated, and characterized as gallic acid(GA), methyl gallate(MG) and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-$\beta$-D-glucose(PGG) by UV, IR, {TEX}${1}^H${/TEX}-&{TEX}${13}^C${/TEX}-NMR, and FAB-MS spectroscopy, PGG({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=50$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) showed a considerable inhibitory effect against mushroom tyrosinase, while GA({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=1.6mg/ml) and MG({TEX}$IC_{50}${/TEX}=234$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) did not show an appreciable effect. Meanwhile, MG inhibited greatly melanogenesis in a murine melanocyte cell line, Mel-Ab. MG and PGG showed typical noncompetitive inhibition patterns against mushroom tyrosinase. These results suggest that PGG and MG may be potentially useful as either anti-browning or anti-melanogenic agents in foods and cosmetics.

This study was carried out to investigate the antimicrobial and anticancer effects of Galla Rhois (GR) on pathogens isolated from oral and KB human oral epidermoid carcinoma cells. Their antimicrobial activities were tested against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Enterobacter aerogenes (E. aerogenes), Escherichia coli (E. coil) and Candida albicans (C. albicans). GR powder has the antimicrobial activity against C. albicans, S. mutans and S. aureus. The extracts of water and ethanol have the antimicrobial activity against S. sureus and C. albicans. The water extract showed inhibitory activity against the growth and pH of above mentioned reference microorganisms. The water extract of GR declined cell viability in a dose dependent manner. DNA flow cytometric analysis showed that population of sub-G/sub 0//G₁, phase of cell cycle was increased by GR extract treatment in a dose dependent manner. Western blot analysis revealed that Caspase-3 was reduced by GR extract treatment. These result suggested that GR has the effect of antimicrobial on pathogens isolated from oral, and also, has anticancer effect that associated with the induction of apoptosis in a dose dependent manner in KB human oral epidermoid carcinoma cells. It may be GR-induced apoptosis was mediated via activation of Caspase-3.

Objective : This study was performed to evaluate the effects of Palmijihwang-hwan (Baweidehuang-wan) and Obaeja (Galla Rhois) on the regeneration of periodontal tissue. Methods : In this study, we used MC3T3-El cells, such as osteoblast-like cell lines and human periodontal ligament fibroblasts, for experimental material. We separated each type of cells into a control group and an experimental group. In the control group, the cells were cultivated for 48 hours with distilled water and media which contained 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin (l00unit/ml)-streptomycin ($l00{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$) at $37^{\circ}$ in 5% $CO_2$ gas. In the experimental group, the cells were cultivated for 48 hours with Palmijihwang-hwan extract and Obaeja extract (concentrations $1{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml,{\;}25{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml,{\;}50{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$) under the same conditions as the control group. Investigating the regeneration of periodontal tissue was performed by evaluating proliferation, the activity of alkaline phosphatase and the synthetic ability of proteins using those cultivated cells by means of microculture tetrazolium (MTT) assay, alkaline phosphatase substrate kit and protein assay kit. Results : 1. In vitro, Palmijihwang-hwan extract increased the proliferation of MC3T3-El cells. 2. In vitro, Obaeja extract increased the activity of alkaline phosphatase and the synthetic ability of protein in MC3T3-El cells and human periodontal ligament fibroblasts depending on Obaeja extract's concentration. Conclusion : Obaeja extract can be developed as a subsidiary medicine for the regeneration of periodontal tissue. Further studies to evaluate the different concentrations the Obaeja extract and clinical trials in vivo are suggested.

Bacteria are among the most common causes of severe diseases in both plants and animals. Salmonella spp. has deleterious effects and is the cause of various transmittable diseases. Because of strains resistivity, side effects and high prices of synthetic antibiotics, it has become essential to explore safe and economical natural sources of antibiotics. In this study, growth inhibitory effects of natural antibiotics present in crude extracts of Galla rhois, Thujae semen, Paeonia japonica, and Armeniacae semen were investigated both in vivo and iv vitro. Ethanol extracts of the above-mentioned plants were prepared and tested against seven serovars of Salmonella and Escherichia coli by disc diffusion method. In addition, the antibacterial effects of the plant extracts were determined in vivo using ducks as model animals. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was performed using blood and fecal samples of control, infected, and treated groups of the ducks to determine the gene expression levels of the bacteria. Our results confirmed that the Galla rhois ethanol extract had the highest antibacterial activity among the plant extracts when they were used individually. However, the Galla rhois, Thujae semen, and P. japonica ethanol extracts showed stronger antibacterial effects against all the bacterial species used when the extracts were combined at a ratio of 3:3:2, respectively.

The present study evaluated the effects of a mixture of Galla rhois and Cinnamomum cassia extracts (GCE) (1 : 1, w/w) on susceptibility to the colonization of Campylobacter (C.) jejuni in broilers. Eighty two-week-old broilers (n = 20 per group) were used to estimate the efficacy of GCE against C. jejuni infection via drinking water. Antibacterial activity testing revealed that the minimum bactericidal concentration of GCE against C. jejuni was 2.5 mg/mL. Broilers challenged with C. jejuni were administered 0.0 (Non-GCE), 2.5 (GCE-2.5), 5.0 (GCE-5.0) and 10.0 g/L (GCE-10) GCE for 7 days, and the cecal contents were collected from five broilers per group on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th day post-treatment. On day 3 post-administration, the number of C. jejuni in GCE-5.0 (p < 0.05) and GCE-10 (p < 0.01) was significantly decreased relative to Non-GCE, while on day 7 those in all GCE-treated groups were significantly decreased compared to the Non-GCE group (p < 0.001). Hematological and blood biochemical analysis revealed no significant differences in parameters between the Non-GCE and GCE-treated groups. Based on the results of the present study, GCE was identified as a safe and alternative candidate to suppress C. jejuni colonization in broilers.

Galla Rhois is a gallnut of Rhus javanica Linne used for treatment of diarrhea, hemorrhage, cough, leukorrhea and toxic tumor etc in oriental medicine. For the evaluation of antitumor effect of Galla Rhois, activity based fractionation was done. We isolated an effective compound and identified 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose(PGG) by photometric analysis such as NMR and MASS. Then, we studied the angiogenic activity of PGG. It showed a cytotoxicity against SK-OV-3, SK-OV-3, HT1080 with IC/sub 50/ of 50 ug/ml approximately. It also effectively inhibited proliferation of HUVEC cells treated by bFGF to 30% of control at 20 ug/ml and cell migration to 80% at 10 ug in a dose dependent fashion. Tube formation of HUVEC cells on matrigel was effectively suppressed from 2.5 ug/ml of concentration by PGG. Moreover, it effectively recovered the dysfunction of gap junctional intercellular communication in WB-F344 rat liver epithelial cells caused by hydrogen peroxide at 4 ug/ml suggesting it potently can inhibit tumor promotion. Taken together, it indicates 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl- β -D-glucose has antiangiogenic activity.

Bacterial antibiotic resistance is a real and growing problem for both Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial pathogens in the hospital setting. Among Gram negative bacteria, the ubiquitous bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a particular concern in immunocompromised and burn patients. The present study evaluated antibacterial activity and efficacy of a Korean herbal medicine against eight multi-drug resistant clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa (0225, 0254, 0347, 0826, 1113, 1378, 1731, and 2492) isolated at Daegu Catholic University Hospital. Methanol extracts of Galla rhois (5 and 10 mg/mL) displayed inhibition diameters for isolate 2492 of 10 and 12 mm, respectively, in a conventional disc diffusion assay. In seven kinds of Korean herbal medicines, increased inhibitory power of Lonicera japonica, Gardenia jasminoides, Galla rhois, and Scultellaria baicalensis was evident with the fermentation of six kinds of lactic acid bacteria. Three lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum KCTC 3108, L. casei KCTC 3109, and L. fermentum KCTC 3112) were identified as excellent strains for the production of antibacterial materials. In the six Korean herbal medicine extracts, strong inhibitory activity of fermented Forsythia suspensa, Glycyrrhizae radix, Lycium chinense, Platycodon grum, and Schizandra chinensis with five kinds of lactic acid bacteria was evident for seven multi-drug resistant P. aeruginosa isolates.
