상추를 포함한 4종의 식물의 수용 및 에탄올 추출액이 상추종자의 발아와 생장에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. l. 은행, 상추, 돼지풀, 달맞이꽃의 수용 추출물은 상추종자의 발아 및 생장율을 현저하게 억제되는 경향을 보여 억제물질을 함유하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 2. 추출용매별로는 에탄올 추출액이 수용추출액보다 억제효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 3. 공시식물의 종류에 관계없이 추출물의 농도 10%가 상추의 발아와 생장을 가장 크게 억제시켰고 희석되어질수록 그 효과는 낮아졌다.

식물추출물(20과 35종)을 사용하여 미량국소처리방법과 분무방법으로 벼멸구 암컷성충에 대한 살충활성과 기피효과에 대해 실험을 수행하였다. 살충활성과 기피효과의 결과는 식물종과 그 부위에 따라 다양한 차이를 보였다. 인면과수, 구리광, 미국자리공의 줄기 추출물, 그리고 취춘과 석류나무의 잎+줄기 추출물이 벼멸구에 대하여 높은 살충활성을 보였다. 식물추출물들의 기피효과는 남학슬의 전부위 추출물, 캐슈나무의 열매추출물, 석류나무와 등나무의 잎+줄기 추출물이 높은 기피활성을 보였다. 이 실험에 사용한 식물추출물들에서 기피효과가 높은 식물추출물들의 살충활성이 불규칙적으로 나타나 기피효과와 살충률의 관계가 성립되지 않았다. 따라서 처리된 식물추출물의 벼멸구에 대한 살충활성과 기피 효과는 상관관계가 없음을 알 수 있다.

The present study represents the screening of the protective effects of herbal methanolic extracts from Baekdu mountain against tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells. Tacrine is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, and used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. However, administration of tacrine for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease results in a reversible hepatotoxicity in 30-50% of patients, consequently limiting clinical use. Therefore, studies for natural products with protective effect on the tacrine-induced hepatotoxicity would be valuable as providing potential therapeutic use. 109 plant sources were collected in Baekdu mountain, and extracted with methanol. These extracts had been screened the protective effects against tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells at the 100 and 300 ${\mu}g/ml$. Of these, ten methanolic extracts, roots of Ampelosis japonica, aerial parts of Berberis amurensis, aerial parts of Sedum aizoon, aerial parts of Lespedeza tomentosa, aerial parts of Lespedeza juncea, aerial parts of Hypenricum ascyron, stem barks of Syringa reticulata, fruits of Gleditsia japonica, aerial parts of Chamaenerion angustifolium, branches of Ginkgo biloba, showed significant protective effects against tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells.

The herbal extract (YMT_02) is a modified herbal extracts from Yukmijihwang-tang (YMJ) to promote memory-enhancing. The YMJ extracts has been widely used as an anti-aging herbal medicine for hundred years in Asian countries. The purpose of this study is to; 1) quantitatively evaluate the memory-enhancing effect of YMT_02 by behavior task, 2) identify candidate genes responsible for enhancing memory by cDNA microarray and 3) assess the anti-oxidant effect of YMT_02 on PC12 cell. Memory retention abilities are addressed by passive avoidance task with Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rat. Before the training session, the rats are subdivided into four groups and administrated with YMT_02, Ginkgo biloba, Soya lecithin and normal saline for 10 days. The retention test was performed. 24 hours after the training session. The retention time of the YMT_02 group was significantly (p<0.05) delayed (～100%), whereas Ginkgo biloba and Soya lecithin treatment delayed 20% and 10% respectively. The hippocampi of YMT_02 and control group were dissected and mANA was further purified. After synthesizing cDNA using oligo-dT primer, the cDNA were applied to Incyte rat GEMTM 2 cDNA microarray. The microarray results show that prealbumin(transthyretin), phosphotidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase, and PEP-19 are expressed abundantly in the YMT_02 treated group. Especially, PEP-19 is a neuron-specific protein, which inhibits apoptotic processes in neuronal cell. On the other hand, transcripts of RAB15, glutamate receptor subunit 2 and CDK108 are abundant in control group. Besides, neuronal genes involved in neuronal death or neurodegeneration such as neuronal-pentraxin and spectrin are abundantly expressed in control group. Additionally, the YMT_02 shows an anti oxidative effect in the PC12 cell. The list of differentially expressed genes may implicate further insight on the action and mechanism behind the memory-enhancing effect of herbal extracts YMT_02, for example, anti-apoptotic, anti-oxidative, and neuroprotective effects.

은행 가공산업에서 부산물로 제거되는 은행 외종피의 활용성을 증대시키고자 다양한 생리활성에 미치는 열처리의 영향을 살펴보았다. 은행 외종피를 분리하여 $130^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 열처리한 후 물, 70% 에탄올 및 80% 메탄올 추출물을 제조하여 생리활성변화를 살펴본 결과, ABTS와 DPPH 자유라디칼 소거활성은 80% 메탄올 추출물을 제외하고, 열처리 후 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 물 추출물에서 각각 14.95 mg AAE/g과 7.36 mg TE/g으로 높게 나타났다. ${\alpha}$-Glucosidase 저해 활성은 물 추출물을 제외하고 열처리 시 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 열처리 전 80% 메탄올 추출물에서 98.66%로 가장 높게 나타났다. Angiotensin converting enzyme I 저해 활성은 추출물 간의 유의적인 차이가 없었으며(P>0.05), 열처리 후 모두 감소하였다. 산화질소 생성억제 활성은 열처리 시 증가하였으며, 물 추출물($200{\mu}g/mL$)이 $12.33{\mu}M$로 LPS 처리구에 비해 산화질소 생성량을 72.39% 감소시켰다. 지방구 축적억제 활성은 세포독성을 보이지 않는 농도에서 열처리 시 감소하였다. 유방암 세포주에 대한 항암 활성은 열처리 후 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 은행 외종피 추출물의 다양한 생리활성을 확인하였으며, 특히 열처리 후 항산화 활성과 유방암 세포주에 대한 증식억제 활성이 크게 증가하였으며, 추후 생리활성물질의 규명 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

Extracts from the leaves of the Ginkgo biloba are becoming increasingly popular as a treatment that is claimed to reduce atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and thrombosis. In this study, the effect of ginkgolide B (GB) from Ginkgo biloba leaves in collagen (10 ${\mu}g/ml$)-stimulated platelet aggregation was investigated. It has been known that human platelets release matrix metallo-proteinase-9 (MMP-9), and that it significantly inhibited platelet aggregation stimulated by collagen. Zymographic analysis confirmed that pro-MMP-9 (92-kDa) was activated by GB to form an MMP-9 (86-kDa) on gelatinolytic activities. And then, activated MMP-9 by GB dose-dependently inhibited platelet aggregation, intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization, and thromboxane $A_2$ ($TXA_2$) formation in collagen-stimulated platelets. Activated MMP-9 by GB directly affects down-regulations of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) or $TXA_2$ synthase in a cell free system. In addition, activated MMP-9 significantly increased the formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which have the anti-platelet function in resting and collagen-stimulated platelets. Therefore, we suggest that activated MMP-9 by GB may increase the intracellular cAMP and cGMP production, inhibit the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization and $TXA_2$ production, thereby leading to inhibition of platelet aggregation. These results strongly indicate that activated MMP-9 is a potent inhibitor of collagen-stimulated platelet aggregation. It may act a crucial role as a negative regulator during platelet activation.

Animal models are important tools in thrombosis research and preclinical drug development. In recent studies, ferric chloride ($FeCl_3$) has been widely used to induce arterial thrombosis in a variety of species. The purpose of this study was to find an optimal concentration of $FeCl_3$ and validate this model suited better for thrombosis research. A small piece of filter paper, soaked in $FeCl_3$ solution (10, 20 or 35%, v/v, in distilled water) was topically applied on the carotid artery of SD rats to measure the time to occlusion (TTO) and thrombus weight (TW) to ascertain 35%, as an optimal $FeCl_3$ concentration ($8.63{\pm}0.92min$; p =0.000, $0.79{\pm}0.03mg/mm$; p =0.000, respectively). To validate this experimental model, Ginkgo biloba special extract EGb761 (5, 10 or 30 mg/kg) as a reference agent administered by peritoneal route for 1h prior to the induction of thrombosis, showed significantly delayed TTO in a dose dependent manner ($18.50{\pm}2.17$, $29.17{\pm}1.83$, and $38.00{\pm}1.79min$, respectively) and significantly reduced TW and repaired collagen fibre in the injured vessel compare to vehicle group. Our results provide a simple, reproducible and well controlled in vivo screening system to induce thrombosis in rats by the topical application of 35% $FeCl_3$ to assess the efficacy of the new anti-thrombotic agents.
