Objectives : The objective of this study is to report the change of progress in symptoms and various scales after treated with Mountain Ginseng Pharmacopuncture(MGP) on the patients of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis(ALS). Methods : The three ALS patients who treated with MGP, were checked the change of progress by ALS Functional Rating Scale(ALSFRS), ALS Severity Score(ALSSS), grasping power on both arms and circumference of both thighs and calves. Results : After MGP treatment on three ALS patients, first case did not grow worse during MGP treated whereas she got worse rapidly during none treated period. Second case did not grow worse during treated period and third case got worse in progress by slow degrees despite of MGP treatment. Conclusions : Although MGP could not control the progress of ALS completely, MGP may help the improving of quality of life(QOL) in ALS patients and have the effect of delayed ALS progression.

Objectives : This study was designed to discover the difference in stimulation effect when the volume and insertion method of mountain ginseng pharmacopuncture was varied. Methods : 48 healthy people were randomly injected with 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7 cc of mountain ginseng pharmacopuncture, perpendicularly or transversely at acupoints $LI_9$ and $LI_{10}$. The subjects noted their level of stimulation on a 100 mm visual analog scale(VAS) immediately after, 3 minutes after, and 5 minutes after the treatment. Results : There was no significant statistical difference in the stimulation strength between perpendicular injection and transverse injection pharmacopuncture. There was significant statistical difference in the stimulation strength when the volume of pharmacopuncture was varied. As the volume of pharmacopuncture increased from 0.1 cc to 0.3 cc, and to 0.5 cc, the stimulation strength increased as well. Conclusions : We found that volume of pharmacopuncture may be a controlling element for mountain ginseng pharmacopuncture. Additional study is needed for pharmacopuncture's stimulation adjusting factors.

본 연구에서는 4년근 산양삼을 4년 숙성된 감식초에 혼입 숙성시킨 후, 5배 희석하여 쥐에게 경구투여하였다. 이후 당질대사 및 지질대사에 영향을 미치는 단백질 발현율을 분석하여 융합소재의 에너지대사율 증대에 의한 비만억제효과에 대하여 검토하였다. 집단은 대조군(CON), 감식초군(PV), 산양삼+감식초 융합소재군(MPV)으로 각각 구분하였다. 체중의 증가율은 PV, MPV가 낮게 나타났다. 글루코스 농도는 PV와 MPV가 낮았으며, 반대로 GLUT-2는 유의하게 높았다. 유리지방산 농도와 CPT-1은 PV, MPV가 높았으며, MPV가 PV에 비하여 높았다. Cytochrome C oxidase는 MPV가 CON에 비하여 높게 나타났다. AMPK, $PPAR-{\gamma}$ 그리고 $PGC1-{\alpha}$는 모두 PV, MPV가 높았으며, MPV가 PV에 비하여 높았다. 이상과 같은 결과는 융합소재의 체열생산반응을 증명하며, 이를 통한 에너지 대사 상승은 비만억제에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있으리라 판단되며, 다양한 후속연구를 통한 검증이 필요할 것이라 사료된다.

Background: Escalating evidence shows that ginseng possesses an antiaging potential with cognitive enhancing activity. As mountain cultivated ginseng (MCG) is cultivated without agricultural chemicals, MCG has emerged as a popular herb medicine. However, little is known about the MCG-mediated pharmacological mechanism on brain aging. Methods: As we demonstrated that glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is important for enhancing memory function in the animal model of aging, we investigated the role of MCG as a GPx inducer using GPx-1 (a major type of GPx) knockout (KO) mice. We assessed whether MCG modulates redox and cholinergic parameters, and memory function in aged GPx-1 knockout KOmice. Results: Redox burden of aged GPx-1 KO mice was more evident than that of aged wild-type (WT) mice. Alteration of Nrf2 DNA binding activity appeared to be more evident than that of NFκB DNA binding activity in aged GPx-1 KO mice. Alteration in choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activity was more evident than that in acetylcholine esterase activity. MCG significantly attenuated reductions in Nrf2 system and ChAT level. MCG significantly enhanced the co-localization of Nrf2-immunoreactivity and ChAT-immunoreactivity in the same cell population. Nrf2 inhibitor brusatol significantly counteracted MCG-mediated up-regulation in ChAT level and ChAT inhibition (by k252a) significantly reduced ERK phosphorylation by MCG, suggesting that MCG might require signal cascade of Nrf2/ChAT/ERK to enhance cognition. Conclusion: GPx-1 depletion might be a prerequisite for cognitive impairment in aged animals. MCG-mediated cognition enhancement might be associated with the activations of Nrf2, ChAT, and ERK signaling cascade.

This study compared the physicochemical properties of root hair of white ginseng (WG), root hair of tissue cultured mountain ginseng (MG), root hair of red ginseng (RG) and extruded ginseng samples. The comparison of crude ash and total sugar resulted insignificant differences between extruded and raw samples. MG had a higher content of crude ash, crude protein, amino acids and polyphenolic compound than WG and RG; the total sugar and reducing sugar were highest in RG. Crude fat and acidic polysaccharide in RG and WG were similar to and higher than MG. Crude saponin of treated samples WG1 (moisture content 25%, barrel temperature $110^{\circ}C$) and WG3 (moisture content 35%, barrel temperature $110^{\circ}C$) were 9.80% and 9.73%, respectively, which were the highest among ginseng samples. In conclusion, the extrusion process can be applied to red ginseng manufacturing, and some characteristics of MG were higher than in RG and WG.

This experiment was performed to investigate whether the combined-preparation of crude drugs (The $Well^{TM}$ Preparation, TW), has hypnotic effects and/or enhances pentobarbital-induced sleep behaviors. TW was mixed with water extracts of Ginseng Radix red, Germinated brown rice, cultured mountain ginseng, and 50% ethanol extracts of Longanae Arillus, Nelumbinis Folium and Chrysanthemi Flos. TW (100 mg/kg, p.o.) reduced sleep onset and prolonged sleep time induced by pentobarbital similar to muscimol (0.2 ${\mu}M$), a $GABA_A$ receptor agonist. Also, TW (2 ${\mu}g$/ml) and pentobarbital (2.5 ${\mu}M$) did not affect the chloride influx in primary cultured cerebellar granule cells, respectively, but the combined-treatment of TW (2 ${\mu}g$/ml) and pentobarbital (2.5 ${\mu}M$) increased the chloride influx onto the cells. In conclusion, TW augments pentobarbital-induced sleep behaviors; these effects may result from chloride channel activation.

신선한 산양삼 잎을 EtOH로 침지 추출하여 얻어진 추출물을 n-hexane, EtOAc, n-BuOH 로 용매 분획하였다. 이중 pancreatic lipase 저해활성이 상대적으로 높은 EtOAc 분획에 대해 silica 및 $C_{18}$ column chromatography를 이용하여 3개의 flavonoid 화합물을 분리하였다. 각 화합물의 화학구조는 NMR 스펙트럼 데이터 해석 및 표품과의 HPLC 직접 비교를 통하여 kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside (I), astragalin (II), kaempferol (III)로 동정하였다. 이들 화합물중 kaempferol (III)는 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $9.1{\pm}1.5$ mM로 가장 강한 효능을 나타내었으며, 다음으로 C-3 번 위치에 1개의 glucose가 결합한 astragalin (II)의 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $17.4{\pm}2.7$ ${\mu}M$, C-3 번 위치에 2개의 glucose가 결합한 kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside (I)의 $IC_{50}$ 값이 $20.3{\pm}2.2$ ${\mu}M$의 저해능을 나타내었다. 산양삼 잎의 EtOAc 가용부에에 존재하는 flavonoid계 pancreatic lipase 저해활성 물질을 동정하였으며, 이들 활성은 kaempferol 타입의 화합물은 C-3위치에 당 결합에 의한 hydrophobicity와 관련됨을 시사하였다. 향후 이들 활성물질의 활성 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하며 본 연구결과는 보다 우수한 pancreatic lipase 저해능을 가지는 새로운 선도화합물 발굴을 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 산양삼잎의 식물 화학적 성분에 대한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
