Anti-microbiological effects of xanthorrhizol, ie., extract from curcuma xanthorrhiza and extract from houttuynia cordata Thunb. against influenza virus and E. coli O157 were tested. From the influenza experiments, the effects were shown above 93 % in case of houttuynia cordata Thunb. extract, however, the effects was not shown in case of xanthorrhizol. The effects were sustained in mixtures of houttuynia cordata Thunb. and curcuma xanthorrhiza extracts. We also tested the anti-microbiological effects of hand sanitizer containing houttuynia cordata Thunb. and xanthorrhizol. The effect of hand sanitizer containing 2,000 ppm of xanthorrhizol and 500 ppm of houttuynia cordata Thunb. extract was better than that of commercialized foreign product.

In this study, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory of fermented Houttuynia cordata Thunb and scoria mixture extract were investigated in vitro. Radical-scavenging activities of the ethanol extracts were examined by using ${\alpha},{\alpha}$-diphenyl-${\beta}$-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS)) radicals assay. Consequently, we confirmed that fermented Houttuynia cordata Thunb and scoria mixture extract dependent removed DPPH and ABTS radical. Also, to confirm anti-inflammatory activity of ethanol extract, we treated fermented Houttuynia cordata Thunb and scoria mixture extract on BV-2 cell with LPS. The result showed that fermented Houttuynia cordata Thunb and scoria mixture extract concentration-dependent inhibited NO production. Therefore, fermented Houttuynia cordata Thunb and scoria mixture extract showed inhibition radical oxygen activities and inflammatory and have available for a pharmacological composition on neuritis-protection and treatment.

The current study was carried out to determine the effects of the leaf and root of Houttuynia cordata Thunb on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Total polyphenol contents of leaf and root ethanol extracts were found to be 59.32 and 12.07 mg/g, respectively. Also, total flavonoid contents of leaf and root ethanol extracts were found to be 10.85 and 8.55 mg/g, respectively. The $RC_{50}$ values of DPPH radical scavenging of leaf and root ethanol extracts were 23.51 and $154.72{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The $RC_{50}$ values of ABTS radical scavenging of leaf and root ethanol extracts were 35.42 and $233.89{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The antioxidant activities in leaf ethanol extracts were higher in root. Also, to confirm anti-inflammatory activity of ethanol extract, we treat leaf and root of Houttuynia cordata Thunb extract on BV-2 cell with LPS. The NO inhibition effects in of Houttuynia cordata Thunb leaf ethanol extracts showed higher values compared with the root ethanol extracts. These results indicate that Houttuynia cordata Thunb ethanol extracts may play a positive role in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.

This study was condo더ed to investigate the antitoxic component in aqueous extract of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$. The results were as follows: Generally, detoxification effects by Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract increased in proportion to the extract concentrations in rats. When 40 mBtg dosage of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract was administrated, Houttynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract showed the highest antitoxic effects in metallothionein induction. After the extract treatment, body weights increased in proportion to the extract concentrations. However, after 3 weeks, the body weight decreased insignificantly. From the above results, Houttuynia cordate $T_{HUNB}$ extract increased metallothionein concentration and decreased the toxicity of cadmium in rats. In vitro the antitoxic activity of aqueous extract of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ on NIH 373 fibroblasts was evaluated by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetra-zoliumbromide) and SRB (sulforhodamine B protein) assays. The light microscopic study was carried out to observe morphological changes of the treated cells. These results were obtained as follows; The concentration of 10$^{-2}$ mg/ml of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract was shown significant antitoxic activity The number of NIH 373 fibroblasts were increased and tend to regenerate. These results suggest that Houttuynia cordata THUNB extract retains a potential antitoxic activity.oxic activity.

본 연구는 여러 생리활성 성분이 다량 함유되어 있다고 알려진 전통 약용 식물인 어성초의 추출 조건에 따른 항산화력을 관찰하였는데, 추출조건으로는 식용으로 활용가능한 물 추출과 70% 에탄올 추출을 통해 항산화력을 비교하였다. 항산화력은 총 페놀 함량, DPPH 라디칼 소거능, ABS 양이온 소거능, FRAP 방법으로 측정하였다. 결과적으로 총 페놀 함량은 어성초 물추출물이나 70% 에탄올 추출물 모두 77.8 mM Tannic acid/g extract로 나타나 유의적인 차이는 없었고 DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 물 추출물 2 mg/mL 농도에서 78.4%, 70% 에탄올 추출물은 91.8%로 유의적으로 소거능이 70% 에탄올 추출 시에 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 ABTS 양이온 소거능에서도 물 추출물은 2 mg/mL 농도에서 47.7%, 70% 에탄올 추출물에서는 54.8%로 유의적으로 70% 에탄올 추출물이 저해능이 우수한 것으로 나타났으며 FRAP 방법으로 통한 환원 능도 70% 에탄올 추출물이 우수한 것으로 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 결과로 어성초 추출물 조건중 70% 에탄올 추출 시 항산화력을 높힐 수 있는 생리활성 성분이 추출되는 것으로 사료되며 식용 가능한 기능성 식품소재로써 어성초 에탄올 추출물을 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Houttuynia cordata Thunb.[H.cordata]belonging to Saururaceae, is a wild medicinal herb of perennial plants, and grows well in a place with a lot of shade and moisture. The medical action of H.cordata is reported to have an antitumer effect, toxicity-suppressive effect, antifungal effect, diuretic effect, and antioxidative action, but its effect hasn't been reported on cardiovascular diseases, such as ateriosclerosis and hypertension yet. This study intended to confirm the effect of the water extract of H.cordata on the migration and proliferation of rat aortic smooth muscle cells. Such results show that the water extract of H.cordata suppresses the migration and proliferation of rat aortic smooth muscle cells. It is believed that a useful clue will be offered later to the prevention of cardiovascular diseases such as ateriosclerosis and hypertension, and the development of their medicines on the basis of the fact.

This study was performed to investigate the protective effect of Houttuynia cordata Thunb on hepatotoxicity in carbon tetrachloride$(CCI_4)$ intoxicated rats. The examined effects hexane, chloroform, butanol and water fractions prepared from the Houttuynia cordata Thunb methanol exlract and rats were administrated with those orally once a day for successive 6 days, fellowed by treaoent with $CCl_4$ on the sixth day. After 6 days, the activities of aminotransferase, alkalinephosphatase, ${\gamma}-glutamyl$ transpeptidase, lactate dehydrogenase and contents of triglyceride, hepatic lipid peroxide in butanol fraction pretreated rats were significantly decreased compared to the only $CCl_4$ treated rats, also depletion glutathione content induced by treatment with $CCl_4$ was prevented by butanol fraction pretreated rats. In addition, activities of hepatic superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase in butanol fiaction pretreated rats were significantly decreased compared to the only $CCl_4$ treated rats, but the activity of hepatic glutathione-S-transferase was not significantly effect. These results suggest that butanol fiuction of Houttuynia cordata Thunb methanol extract have potent hepatoprotective effect against carbon tetrachloride intoxicated rats.

The inhibitory effects of the juice and boiling water extract of Houttuyina cordata Thunb., which has been known as a traditional folk antitumor agent, on the genotxicity induced by mutagens were investigated . For this purpose, Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100, and the transheterozygous (mwh/+) third larvae of Drosophila melanogaster were used. The juice of fresh H. cordata 9JHC) and boiling H. cordata extract (BHC) showed antimutagenicities toared alfatoxin B₁ in S. typhimurium TA 98 and TA100. The JHC's inhibitory effect increased by 76% to 98% as the adding concentrations increased, and the BHC had a 86-97% inhibitory effect. however, in the case of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), the JHC's inhibitory effect was 52-60% irrespectively of its concentrations and the BHC had a low inhibitory effect. The JHC and BHC slightly reduced the somatic chromosomal mutagenicity by MNNG in the wing hair spot test system (mwh/+) of D. melanogaster, which suggests that they can inhibit gene mutation , deletion and mitotic chromosomal recomgination.

어성초(H. cordata Thunb) 건조 분말(0.05 g)을 10 mL의 증류수와 함께 스테인리스 용기에 넣고 밀봉한 후 여러 온도(50, 100, 200, $300^{\circ}C$)에서 10, 30, 60분간 추출하였다. 추출온도와 시간은 어성초 추출물의 중요 성분, 항산화 활성, acetylcholinesterase 저해 활성에 크게 영향을 미쳤다. $300^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 처리한 어성초 추출물에서 가장 높은 페놀 함량($33.34{\pm}0.96\;{\mu}g$ gallic acid equivalents/mL), quercetin 함량($15.75{\pm}0.20\;{\mu}g/mL$), DPPH 라디칼 소거능($44.07{\pm}2.65%$), acetylcholinesterase 저해 활성($36.53{\pm}1.14%$)이 나타났다. 플라보노이드 함량은 $100^{\circ}C$ 10분 추출물에서 $2.55{\mu}g$ quercetin equivalents/mL로 가장 높게 측정되었다. $100^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 밀폐된 증류수는 높은 압력에서 아임계수 형태로 존재하는데 이러한 아임계수는 고품질의 어성초 추출물을 제조하는데 매우 유용하였다.
