Indications of Hyeongbangpaedok-san for Soyang-type on "Donguisusebowon" are small. Therefore, indications of Hyeongbangpaedok-san for Soyang-type need to be extended for broader clinical use. There would be some methods to do that, and we could review "Dongeuibogam" that Four-Constitution Medicine formulas are based on. We reviewed Hyeongbangpaedok-san, Insampaedok-san which is the origin of Hyeongbangpaedok-san, and their modified formula(加減方) on "Dongeuibogam". As a result, we supposed 12 indications of non-classical formula(後世方) Hyeongbangpaedok-san, 2 indications of modified formula of non-classical formula Hyeongbangpaedok-san, and 12 indications of Insampaedok-san and its modified formula as possible indications of Hyeongbangpaedok for Soyang-type.

1. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to find out the Anti-Oxidative effects of Soyangin Hyeongbangpaedok-san(HBP) in kidney and spleen cells of aged rats. 2. Methods: Aged rats used in this experiment were 6, 52, 68 weeks old. Each age group was divided into three groups again. One group was given no treatment, another group was dosed normal saline and the other group was dosed HBP decoction. The antioxidant effects of HBP decoction were measured by the levels of SOD, GSH, MDA and NO. 3. Results: and Conclusions: 1) The activity of SOD was significantly increased in kidney cells of 68w-HBP group. Deterioration of the activity of SOD in kidney cells was significantly suppressed according to increasing in age of the week. 2) The level of NO was significantly decreased in kidney cells of 68w-HBP group. Deterioration of The level of NO in kidney cells was significantly suppressed according to increasing in age of the week. 3) The activity of SOD was increased in spleen cells of 52w and 68w-HBP group. 4) The level of GSH was significantly increased in spleen cells of 68w-HBP group.

Objectives The present study was carried out to investigate effects of HBPDS on allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) induced by 2,4-Dinitro-1-fluorobenzene (DNFB) in mice. Methods In this experiment, effects of HBPDS on body weights, skin thicknesses, skin weights, histopathological changes, clinical aspects, erythema index, melanin index, production levels of cytokines in ACD mice were investigated. In addition, effects on proliferation rates, release of ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase and histamine were also investigated in vitro. Results & Conclusions 1) HBPDS inhibited enlargement of skin thickness and weight significantly (P < 0.05). 2) HBPDS treatment prevented spongiosis, edema and immune cell infiltrations. 3) Erythema, desquamation and keratosis were diminished by oral administration of HBPDS. 4) Production levels of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma in serum were decreased by HBPDS treatment in vivo. 5) More than 200 ${\mu}g/ml$ of HBPDS treatment decreased ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase release and more than 400 ${\mu}g/ml$ of HBPDS treatment also decreased histamine release in vitro.

1. Objectives The purpose of this study is to find out effects of Hyeongbangpaedok-san(HBPDS) and Dokhwaljihwang(DHJH) against decline of physical function as aging. 2. Methods Administrating HBPDS and DHJH to 40-week-old Wistar rat for 10 weeks so, I researched weight change, weight change of internal organs, and hematological and serological changes. 3. Results & Conclusions 1. Both examining groups, which were taken HBPDS and DHJH, got more weight than control group. But that was regardless. 2. Both examining groups got more weight on internal organs than control group. But that was regardless, too. 3. Both examining groups decreased in amount of MDA in serum, as contrasted with control group. But it was regardless. 4. Both examining groups improved on hematological condition. WBC, RBC, Hgb, monocytes and eosinophil rates were decreasing and HCT and PLT were increasing. Especially monocytes(p<0.001) and eosinophil(p<0.05) rate of DHJH taken group was decreased remarkably. 5-1. Both examining groups show decline in each item of functional examination of liver, such as ALT, AST, T-bilirubin, T-protein, ALB, A/G. T-chol, TG, etc. HBPDS taken group showed meaningful decline in Albumin(p<0.01) and A/G(p<0.01) and DHJH taken group showed meaningful decline in T-bilirubin(p<0.01). 5-2. Both examining groups showed decline in items of functional examination of kidneys. Specially HBPDS taken group showed meaningful decline in CRN rate(p<0.05) and DHJH taken group showed meaningful decline in BUN rate(p<0.05). As those results, HBPDS and DHJH are effective against decline of physical function as aging.

We have studied some effects of the SOYANGIN-HYEONGBANGPAEDOK-SAN (S.H.P.). Several empirical remarks, depending on the different treatments, are investigated through this study as follow; 1. The Analgesic effects of S.H.P. are remarked by Acetic acid method in mice, 100 and 300mg/kg (Sample II, III), 2. The Antipyretic effect of S.H.P. are remarked by yeast method in rats, 100 and 300mg/kg (Sample II, III). 3. The inhibitory effects of S.H.P. on strychnine induced convulsion in mice is remarked. However the inhibitory effects of S.H.P. on picrotoxin induced convulsion in mice is not observed. 4. The effects of S.H.P. on muscle relaxation in mice, using the Rota-Rod test, is remarked on 1,2,3 hours by 300mg/kg (Sample III).

Soyangin-Hyeongbangpaedok-san(SHBPDS) is a herbal formula used for the common cold or upper respiratory illness. In order to investigate the effect of SHBPDS, mice were orally administered with SHBPDS alcohol extract for 7 days followed by intravenous anti-CD3 injection. In addition, splenocytes and CD4 T cells were cultured with SHBPDS in response to anti-CD3 in vitro and cytokines and transcription factors were evaluated. In vivo treatment with SHBPDS significantly augmented the expressions of the percentage of CD4 T cells and CD 69, an indicator of early T cell activation. Serum levels of IL-4 were significantly increased but those of IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-2 did not reach statistical significance. The expressions of IFN-${\gamma}$ and T-bet mRNA were significantly downregulated in SHBPDS treated mice while those of IL-4 and C-Maf were significantly upregulated. In vitro stimulation of splenocytes and CD4 T cells by SHBPDS resulted in a reduction in IFN-${\gamma}$ secretion and STAT4 activity. The IL-4 releases from both cells were slightly reduced, but STAT6 activity was rather increased. In conclusion, SHBPDS exerted an inhibition in the expression of IFN-${\gamma}$, T-bet and STAT4 while IL-4, C-Maf and STAT6 were increased. Further studies are required to examine its pharmacological effects using more appropriate animal experiments.
