많은 약리학적 효과가 입증되고 안전하다고 인정되는 생약제를 포함한 천연물은 오랫동안 사용되어 왔다. 다만 생약제로 사용되는 천연물의 안전성 등 부작용은 명확하게 확인되지 않았다. 이번 연구의 목적은 통증, 비염, 폐렴 치료에 사용되는 신이의 안정성 평가를 확인하기 위하여 SD 랫드 동물모델을 이용하여 4주 반복 용량 결정 독성시험으로 신이의 독성평가를 수행하였다. 수컷과 암컷 SD 랫드에 신이추출물을 28일 동안 1,500, 3,000 mg/kg의 농도로 하루 1회 경구 투여하였다. 신이추출물의 안정성 평가는 일반증상관찰, 체중 및 사료섭취량 측정, 혈구 및 혈액생화학 분석, 부검소견 관찰 및 상대적 장기무게 측정으로 판단하였으며 실험기간동안 신이추출물의 투여로 독성 관련 유의미한 변화는 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 이러한 연구결과는 4주 반복 용량 결정 독성시험에서 신이추출물이 독성 등 부작용은 나타나지 않았으며, 신이추출물의 독성이 나타나지 않는 최대무독성량은 3,000 mg/kg 이상으로 추정되었다.

Many skin diseases are caused by microbial infections. Representative pathogenic fungus and bacterium that cause skin diseases are Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively. Malassezia pachydermatis is a fungus that causes animal skin diseases. In this study, we propose a method for removing pathogenic microorganisms from the skin using relatively safe edible herbal extracts. Herbal extracts were screened for skin health through the removal of pathogenic microorganisms, and combinations for effective utilization of the screened extracts were identified. In this study, among methanol extracts of 240 edible plants, C. albicans, S. aureus, and M. pachydermatis were killed by extracts of 10 plants: Acori Gramineri Rhizoma, Angelicae Tenuissimae Radix, Cinnamomi Cortex, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Impatientis Semen, Magnoliae Cortex, Moutan Cortex Radicis, Phellodendri Cortex, Scutellariae Radix, and Syzygii Flos. By evaluating the synergistic antifungal activities against C. albicans using all 45 possible combinations of these 10 extracts, five new synergistic antifungal combinations, Acori Gramineri Rhizoma with Magnoliae Cortex extracts, Acori Gramineri Rhizoma with Phellodendri Cortex extracts, Angelicae Tenuissimae Radix with Magnoliae Cortex extracts, Magnoliae Cortex with Phellodendri Cortex extracts, and Phellodendri Cortex with Syzygii Flos extracts, were identified. By utilizing the selected extracts and five combinations with synergistic antifungal effects, this work provides materials and methods to develop new and safe methods for treating candidiasis using natural products.

The essential oils from 73 aromatic herb drugs entered on Korean official formularies were tested for antibioticresistance inhibitory effect. When the oils were combined with ampicillin (Am) or amoxicillin (Amx) they showed significant inhibitory effects on the growth of multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus SA2 in considerably low concentration. The most effective combination were oils from Magnoliae Flos or Piperis longi Fructus ($25{\mu}g/mL$)-Am or Amx ($4{\mu}g/mL$).

Dopamine ${\beta}-hydroxylase$ (DBH) catalyses the enzymatic reaction of dopamine to norepinephrine. For the purpose of isolating DBH inhibitors from natural resources, thirty one kinds of medicinal plants were screened by tracing the inhibitory activities against bovine adrenal DBH, utilizing tyramine as a substrate. Among the crude drugs tested, leaves of Lactuca sativa L., Gardeniae Fructus, Magnoliae Flos and Scutellariae Radix showed potent enzyme inhibitory activities against DBH.

Magnoliae Flos (Sini in Korean) is one of the most important oriental medicinal plants. In the Korean Herbal Pharmacopeia, the bud of the all species in Manolia denudate and Manolia genus were regarded as the botanical sources for ‘Sini’. Most the dried bud of Manolia denudata, Manolia biondii and Manolia sprengeri were used as ‘Xin-yi’ in China. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine and compare the ‘Magnolia’ species, four species including Manolia denudata, M. biondii, M. liliiflora and M. Kobus were analysis of sequencing data revealed DNA polymorphisms. The based on tRNA coding leucine/phenylalanine (trnL-F) and NADH-plastoquinone oxidoreductase subunit 5 (ndhF) sequences in chloroplast DNA. For the identification of ‘Magnolia’ species, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of chloroplast DNA regions such as ndhF have proven an appropriate method. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has been identified between genuine “Sini” and their fraudulent and misuse. Specific PCR primers were designed from this polymorphic site within the sequence data, and were used to detect true plants via multiplex PCR.

5가지 식용식물인 신이(Flos magnoliae), 지실(Poncirus trifoliata), 시호(Bupleurum falcatum), 황금(Scutellaria baicalensis), 및 오미자(Schisandra chinensis)의 열수 추출물(10 mg/20 g B.W.)이 제IV형 알레르기 반응에 미치는 억제효과를 관찰하기 위하여 DNFB로 감작된 6주령의 웅성 BALB/C mouse에 1, 2차 시료를 투여한 후, 유도된 접촉성 피부염에 의한 부종도를 측정하였으며 대조 약물로는 cyclosporin(0.005 mg/20 g B.W)을 사용하였다. DNFB의 피부염증반응에 대한 귀 두께 측정은 1차 감작에서 황금, 오미자, 지실 군이 대조 군에 비하여 유의한 감소를 나타냈고(p<0.05), 약물 대조군인 cyclosporin과 같은 억제효과를 보였다. 시호, 신이 군은 대조 군에 비해 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 유의한 차이는 없었다. 억제 효과는 황금>오미자>지실>시호>신이의 순으로서 황금 군의 활성이 가장 높았다. 2차 감작에서는 오미자, 지실, 황금, 신이 군이 대조 군에 비하여 유의한 감소를 나타냈고 오미자와 지실은 약물 대조군인 cyclosporin과는 유의적인 차이는 없었지만 억제 효과가 더 컸다. 시호군은 대조 군과 유의적인 차이가 없었으며 오미자>지실>황금>신이>시호의 순으로서 오미자 군이 가장 높은 억제효과를 나타냈다.

This paper describes a pattern recognition method of Magnoliae flos based on a gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) analysis of the essential oil components. The botanical drug is mainly comprised of the four magnolia species (M. denudata, M. biondii, M. kobus, and M. liliflora) in Korea, although some other species are also being dealt with the drug. The GC/MS separation of the volatile components, which was extracted by the simultaneous distillation and extraction (SDE), was performed on a carbowax column (supelcowax 10; 30 m{\time}0.25 mm{\time}0.25{\mu}m$) using temperature programming. Variance in the retention times for all peaks of interests was within RSD 2% for repeated analyses (n = 9). Of the 74 essential oil components identified from the magnolia species, approximately 10 major components, which is $\alpha$-pinene, $\beta$-pinene, sabinene, myrcene, d-limonene, eucarlyptol (1,8-cineol), $\gamma$-terpinene, p-cymene, linalool, $\alpha$-terpineol, were commonly present in the four species. For statistical analysis, the original dataset was reduced to the 13 variables by Fisher criterion and factor analysis (FA). The essential oil patterns were processed by means of the multivariate statistical analysis including hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant analysis (DA). All samples were divided into four groups with three principal components by PCA and according to the plant origins by HCA. Thirty-three samples (23 training sets and 10 test samples to be assessed) were correctly classified into the four groups predicted by PCA. This method would provide a practical strategy for assessing the authenticity or quality of the well-known herbal drug, Magnoliae flos.

Flos magnoliae (FM), the dry flower buds of Magnolia officinalis or its related species, is a traditional herbal medicine commonly used in Asia for symptomatic relief of and treating allergic rhinitis, headache, and sinusitis. Although several studies have reported the effects of FM on store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) via the ORAI1 channel, which is essential during intracellular calcium signaling cascade generation for T cell activation and mast cell degranulation, the effects of its isolated constituents on SOCE remain unidentified. Therefore, we investigated which of the five major constituents of 30% ethanoic FM (vanillic acid, tiliroside, eudesmin, magnolin, and fargesin) inhibit SOCE and their physiological effects on immune cells. The conventional whole-cell patch clamp results showed that fargesin, magnolin, and eudesmin significantly inhibited SOCE and thus human primary CD4+ T lymphocyte proliferation, as well as allergen-induced histamine release in mast cells. Among them, fargesin demonstrated the most potent inhibitory effects not only on ORAI1 (IC50 = 12.46 ± 1.300 μM) but also on T-cell proliferation (by 87.74% ± 1.835%) and mast cell degranulation (by 20.11% ± 5.366%) at 100 μM. Our findings suggest that fargesin can be a promising candidate for the development of therapeutic drugs to treat allergic diseases.
