In the present study, we investigated the protective effect of the Lycii Fructus water extracts (LFE) against CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity and the mechanism underlying these protective effects in the rats. The pretreatment of LFE has shown to possess a significant protective effect by lowering the serum alanine and aspartate aminoteansferase (AST and ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). This hepatoprotective action was confirmed by histological observation, In addition, the pretreatment of LFE prevented the elevation of hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) formation and the depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) content and catalase activity in the liver of CC1₄-injected rats. The LFE also displayed hydroxide radical scavenging activity in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 = 83.6 μg/ml), as assayed by electron spin resonance (ESR) spin-trapping technique. Moreover, the expression of cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) mRNA, as measured by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), was significantly decreased in the liver of LFE-pretreated rats when compared with that in the liver of control group. Based on these results, it was suggested that the hepatoprotective effects of the LFE may be related to antioxidant effects and regulation of CYP2E1 gene expression.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a highly prevalent disorder that affects millions of men worldwide. ED is now considered an early manifestation of atherosclerosis, and consequently, a precursor of systemic vascular disease. Lycii fructus extracts (LFE) were administered for 4 weeks to assess the improving effects on ED. Animals were divided into one normal group and four LFE-treated groups (0, 0.3, 0.6, and 1.2 g/kg). We induced ED in the study animals by oral administration of 20% ethanol instead of water everyday for 4 weeks. This study was designed to investigate the effects of LFE on the mRNA levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) expression; NO levels of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP); blood profile; and erectile response of the corpus cavernosum of the rat penis. The libido of the LFE-administered male rats was higher than that of the ethanol control group. The erectile response of the corpus cavernosum was restored after LFE administration, to a level similar to the normal group. In addition, the iNOS in the corpus cavernosum of the male rats administered LFE decreased. In contrast, compared to the control group, LFE-administered male rats showed increased eNOS, NO and cGMP levels in the corpus cavernosum. These results indicate that LFE effectively restored ethanol-induced ED in male rats.

This study was performed to investigate an anti-HBV activities of the aqueous extracts from 10 Korean herbal medicines in the HepG2 2.2.15 cell culture system and the results were as follows: 1. The extracts of 6 plants (Herba Artemisiae Capillaris, Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Cortex Cinnamomi, Fructus Chebulae, Fructus Rubi and Radix Rubi) decreased, significantly and dose-dependently, the levels of extracellular HBV virion in the concentrations (10, 100, 500 and $1,000\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) tested. 2. However, others (Radix lsatidis, Lignum Sappan, Herba Lysimachiae and Fructus Lycii) did not show any effect either on the replication of HBV or on the levels of virion DNA in the culture media of HepG2 2.2.15 cell. 3. Among the 6 plants which showed the inhibitory potency on the production of extracellular HBV virion, Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Cortex Cinnamomi, Fructus Chebulae, Fructus Rubi and Radix Rubi except Herba Artemisiae Capillaris also showed the inhibition of the replication of intracellular HEV DNA in the range of $100{\sim}500\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. Considering the above results, it is thought that 6 plants(Herba Artemisiae Capillaris, Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Cortex Cinnamomi, Fructus Chebulae, Fructus Rubi and Radix Rubi) possess the anti-HBV activities in the HepG2 2.2.15 cell culture system. We thus suggest that these plants possess a potential as a therapeutic agent for the chronic viral hepatitis. These results might be useful as a basic data for the development of the new preventive drugs for HBV diseases.

Objectives : The objective of this study is to observe the effect of Saryuktangkamibang, Saryuktang with Liriopis Tuber, Lycii Fructus, Schizandrae Fructus, and Bombyx Batryticatus, on the experimental diabetes. Methods : In order to induce diabetes experimentally, injected streptozotocin to the vein in the tail of rats and then treated oral administration of Saryuktangkamibang water extracts. In the measurement of the variation levels of glucose, ALP, creatinine, and BUN concentration for each concentration levels for serum (0.2g/100g, 0.4g/l00g, 0.6g/100g), concentration level of glucose significantly decreased in 0.4g/l00g concentration level of Saryuktangkamibang. With this 0.4g/l00g concentration level of Saryuktangkamibang, the following conclusion was derived from the measurement of the serum levels of glucose. ALP, AST, ALT, creatinine, and BUN concentration for the injection of each 4th, 11th, and 18th day. Results : 1. In the measurement for each concentrations, the glucose concentration level in the serum significantly decreased on the 9th day in the Saryuktangkamibang-dosed group. 2. The creatinine and BUN concentration level in the serum significantly decreased on the 9th day in the Saryuktangkamibang-dosed group to which 0.6g/100g injected. 3. In the measurement for each dosage dates, the glucose concentration level in the serum significantly decreased on the 11th day in the Saryuktangkamibang-dosed group to which 0.6g/100g injected. 4. The AST concentration level in the serum significantly decreased on the 11th day in the Saryuktangkamibang-dosed group. Conclusion : Saryuktangkamibang, Saruktang with Liriopis Tuber, Lycii Fructus, Schizandrae Fructus, and Bombyx Batryticatus, has an effect of hypoglycemia, with no hepato-renal dysfunction. For the experimental results above, in that nephrotoxicity significantly decreased on the 0.6g/100g concentration, another research such as study for effect in other ranges and study for effect of dosage term except the concentration range of this study is necessary. Also dosage of appropriate concentration of Saryuktangkamibang is thought to provide valuable aid to cure on diabetes.
