The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of Kamihyungbangjihwang-tang (KHT) on immediate-type allergic reaction. KHT was composed of hyungbangjihwangtang (HJT) and Rubus coreanus Miquel (RC) and Aspalathus linear is (AL). KHT and HJT (500 mg/kg) inhibited the systemic anaphylaxis induced by compound 48/80 and inhibited the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) induced by anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP)-IgE and DNP-human serum albumin (HSA) in vivo. In addition, KHT, HJT, RC and AL inhibited the release of histamine and increased the release of cAMP from rat peritoneal mast cells. The anti-allergic action of KHT was more potent than those of HJT. These results indicate that KHT may be useful for the prevention and treatment of type I allergy related disease via inhibition of histamine release from mast cells.

The effect of aqueous extract of Stachys riederi var. japonica Miq. (Labiatae) (SRAE) on the immediate-type allergic reactions was investigated. SRAE was found to exhibit a inhibitory activity on the compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylaxis in mice. SRAE inhibited the plasma histamine release induced by compound 48/80 in mice. In addition, SRAE also inhibited the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reaction induced by IgE/anti-IgE in mice. The effect of SRAE on the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) was studied. SRAE inhibited the histamine release induced by compound 48/80 in RPMC. To clarify the mechanism of these inhibiting reactions, we investigated the effects of SRAE on cyclic AMP (cAMP). The level of cAMP in human leukemia cell line, HMC-1, when SRAE (1 mg/ml) was added, significantly increased compared with that of basal cells. These results indicate that SRAE may be beneficial in the treatment of immediate-type allergic reaction.

We studied the inhibitory effect of the aqueous extract of Salvia plebeia (SPAE) on immediate hypersensitivity reactions. SPAE inhibited immediate hypersensitivity reaction induced by compound 48/80 in mice. When SPAE was employed in an immediate hypersensitivity reaction test, the plasma histamine levels were reduced in a dose-dependent manner. SPAE also inhibited the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) by compound 48/80. The level of cAMP in RPMC, when SPAE was added, significantly increased compared with that of a normal control. These results indicate that SPAE may be beneficial in the treatment of immediate hypersensitivity reactions.

Okbyungpoongsan-Gami (OG) has been used for the treatment of excessive sweating with general weakness and allergic rhinitis recently. Anal therapy is another way of taking Oriental medicine. It is an important pathway but not available in common clinical situation. This experiment was performed in order to study the inhibitory effect of immediate-type allergic reaction of OG by anal therapy. In addition, the experiment was practised by 1 H-NMR spectroscopy to examine molecular structure of OG. The results were obtained as follows : OG concentration-dependently inhibited compound 48/80- induced immediate type systemic allergic reaction with concentrations of 0.01-1.0g/kg by anal administration 1 h before injection of compound 48/80. OG also concentration-dependently inhibited compound 48/80- induced ear swelling response with concentrations of 0.01-1g/kg by anal administration 1h before injection of compound 48/80. OG also inhibited the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis activated by anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) IgE antibody concentration- dependently at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1g/kg. When OG was pretreated at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1g/ℓ, the histamine release from the rat peritoneal mast cells induced by compound 48/80 was reduced in a concentration-dependent manner. OG (0.1-1g/ℓ) had a significant inhibitory effect on histamine release from IgE-induced activated mast cells. OG is seen to be a biochemical compound certainly by 1 H-NMR spectroscopy According to above results, anal therapy of OG may be beneficial in the treatment of systemic and local immediate-type allergic reactions by inhibition of histamine release from mast cells.

The immediate-type allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) is involved in many allergic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and sinusitis. The discovery of drugs for the treatment of immediate-type allergic diseases is a very important subject in human health. In this study, we investigated the effect of Rubus coreanus Miq.(Rosaceae) unripe fruits (RCF) on mast cell-mediated allergic reaction and inflammatory cytokine secretion. RCF inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic reactions in mice. RCF attenuated immunoglobulin (Ig) E-mediated local allergic reactions. In addition, RCF dependently reduced histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells local allergic reactions. In addition, RCF dependently reduced histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells activated by compound 48/80 or IgE. Furthermore, RCF decreased the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate plus calcium ionophore A23187-stimulated tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$ and interleukin (IL)-6 secretion in human mast cells. Our findings provide evidence that RCF inhibits mast cell-derived immediate-type allergic reactions.

Spirodela polyrhiza(L.) Schleid (Lemnaceae) have been used as a traditional drug in treating urticaria and itching. However, the exact role of Spirodela polyrhiza in allergic reaction has not been clarified yet. Type 1 hypersensitivity (immediate hypersensitivity), popularly known as allergy, is a major clinical problem in humans. It has been found that the histamine release from mast cells is an essential step in the pathological process of immediate hypersensitivity. In the present study, the effect of aqueous extract of Spirodela polyrhiza (AESP) on immediate hypersensitivity was investigated. AESP inhibited the antigen-induced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA). AESP in vitro exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition of degranulation in RPMC stimulated by compound 48/80. AESP also suppressed the morphological changes and the increase of intracellular free calcium level induced by compound 48/80. These results suggest that inhibitory effect of AESP on immediate hypersensitivity may be mediated through the decrease of intracellular free calcium levels, and AESP importantly contributes to the treatment of anaphylaxis and may be useful for other allergic disease.

A drug delivery system(DDS) for practically insoluble meloxicam was developed and evaluated by dissolution study. A novel DDS is two layered system, where the first layer is consisted of gas-forming agent for an immediate release and the second layer is composed of metolose SR(HPMC) for sustained release. This bilayered tablets were manufactured by using manual single punch machine. The results of dissolution study showed an initial burst release followed by sustained release for the experimental period time. From a pharmaceutical point of view, the designed DDS for meloxicam would be informative system in terms of poorly soluble analgesic medicines.

Background: We assessed the effectiveness of arthroscopic capsular release for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis. Further, we tried to ascertain the clinical benefits, if any, of pancapsular release over selective capsular release, where the two differ by performing or not performing a posterior capsular release, respectively. Methods: Thirty-five consecutive patients with either primary or secondary adhesive capsulitis who failed conservative treatment for more than 6 months were enrolled in the study. A total of 16 patients allocated in group 1 received a pancapsular release that comprises the release of the rotator interval, anteroinferior capsular, and the posterior capsular release, whereas 19 patients in group 2 received a selective capsular release that comprises only the release of the rotator interval release and anteroinferior capsular release. The clinical outcomes, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Constant score, and range of motion, were assessed preoperative and postoperatively. Results: In both groups, the preoperative VAS score, Constant score, and ROM showed a significant improvement by the 6-month follow-up. We found that the immediate postoperative internal rotation was significantly higher in group 1 than group 2. Despite significant differences seen between the two groups at the initial postoperative period, there were no significant differences in Constant score, VAS score, and the ROM at all the subsequent follow-ups between the two groups. Conclusions: Arthroscopic capsular release for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis is very effective. However, pancapsular release did not show any advantage over selective capsular release in terms of overall clinical outcome.

The effect of aqueous extract of Isodon japonicus Hara (Labiatae) (IJAE) on mast cell-mediated immediate-type allergic reactions was investigated. IJAE inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylaxis and immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated local anaphylaxis. When IJAE was pretreated at the same concentration with systemic anaphylaxis, serum histamine levels were reduced in a dose-dependent manner. IJAE dose-dependently inhibited histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) activated by compound 48/80. The level of cAMP in human mast cell line (HMC-1) cells, when IJAE was added, significantly was increased, compared with that of normal control. These results indicate that IJAE will beneficial in the treatment of immediate-type allergic reaction.

Object : We investigated the effect of Gamiokyaek-tang(GOYT) on immediate type hypersensitivity. Methods : We investigated anti-dinitrophenyl(DNP) IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis(PCA) and acetic acid-induced vascular permeability in rodents. Also we measured MTT assay, ${\beta}-hexosminidase$ activity and IL-4 from RBL-2H3 and nitric oxide from Raw264.7. Results : GOYT inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and acetic acid-induced vascular permeability by oral administration. All the concentrations of GOYT from 0.1 to 5mg/ml didn't have an effect on cell viability and cytotoxicity. In RBL-2H3, ${\beta}-hexosminidase$ release and IL-4 production were significantly reduced by 1, 2 and 5mg/ml of GOYT. In Raw264.7, nitric oxide level was decreased by 5mg/ml of GOYT. Conclusion : These results indicate that GOYT have inhibition effects on immediate type hypersensitivity.
