The intention of this study is to apprehend the con. tents and methods of herb remedies that are commonly conducted when there are health-problem cases of ENT, eyes, teeth and skin. Methods of this study are divided into two stages : 1) For a period of six months from December 1994 to June 1995, some 40 persons who are believed to be well versed with herb remedies have been randomly chosen, and we made a survey on herb remedies by symptoms: and 2) we have endeavored to make their grounds evident through the studies on literatures with the focus on the basic data collected. Their results are as follows: 1) When one feels a pain in ears, such herb remedies are employed as pouring the vapor into ears, which is made by steaming Alaska pollack, or as applying or wiping with the juices of radish or the ginkgo, or' alum. Applying the radish juice is effective for sterilization and fever removal: and applying the ginkgo juice is effective for cleanliness. But, plastering alum, sesame oil or castor oil, or pouring the vapor of Alaska pollack into ears are perhaps effective but do not have any pharmacologic grounds. 2) When one bleeds at the nose, such kinds of herb remedies are applied as stimulating nose or head with cold water, pressing nose or ridge of nose, or filling up nares with mashed mugworts. In addition, they have utilized garlic or leeks. Such methods as stimulating with cold water or just pressing nose and ridge of nose is based on reasonable grounds, i.e. vasoconstriction and vascular compression ; and applying mashed garlic on the sole of foot is good for the circulation of Qui ; and the use of mugworts and leeks is based upon the pharmacological function of hemostasis. 3) When one feels a sore throat such kinds of herb remedies are employed as gargling or rinsing throat with brine, drinking hot gruel or water, or drinking the juice of mugwort, radish, ginger or Chinese quince. Gargling with brine or drinking the juice of mugwort, radish or ginger is based upon the pharmacological function of pain alleviation, fever removal, and detoxication. 4) When a boil is formed in mouth, such herb remedies are applied as spreading honey, brine or alum water, and taking gall nut, Chinese matrimony vine, lotus root, etc, for drugs. Spreading honey, brine or water that is made by infusing gallnut, Chinese matrimony vine, lotus root is based upon such functions as hematosis, astriction, antibacterial, and antiphlogistic, Alum, eggplant and licorice are said to be effective, but their pharmacological effects have no grounds. 5) When one has conjunctivitis such herb remedies are commonly applied as irrigation with brine and dropping breast milk in eyes. Moreover, such other drugs are used as plantain. shepherd's purse, and purslane, etc. The use of brine, breast milk, plantain, shepherd's purse and purslane is based upon such functions as sterilization, antiphlogistic, disinfection and pain relieving. Eriocaulon sieboldianum, bean stem, bean pod and narcissus leaves are said to be effective, but their pharmacological action have no basis. When one has a stye, such herb remedies are applied as extracting eyelashes, stimulating by a massage of middle finger, third finger or big toe, as well as sear ing with a heated bamboo comb that is fine-toothed. Other than these, plantain and nightshade's nuts are used as drugs for it. Extracting eyelashes corresponds with exclusing suppurative node and draining the stye of pus ; and the use of plantain is based upon disinfection: and nightshade's nuts are said to be effective, however, their pharmacological action has no grounds. 6) For a treatment of toothache, such herb remedies are commonly employed as rinsing mouth with brine and holding cold water or gasoline in the mouth ; and as the drugs that are believed to be effective have been Welsh onion, ginger and castor-oil, plant, etc. The use of Welsh onion is based upon pain killing, antiinflammatory actions, and the use of ginger is based upon detoxication and disinfection ; and seeds of castor-oil plants are said to be effective, but they have no pharmacological basis. 7) When one has hives, such herb remedies are commonly applied as rubbing burned straw in affected parts, exposing to its smoke, rubbing with salt, sweeping down with a broom, and spreading and drinking boiled water of trifoliate orange. The use of cassia tora seeds, walnut, aloe and radish is said to be effective. The use of cassia tor a seeds has the functions of intestinal order, anti-paralysis, etc. The use of walnut has resulted in an increase of blood by invigorating spirits ; and the use of aloe is based upon disinfection, antibiotic, anti-salt, antihistamine and detoxication action. But, the effects of radish juice and straw's smoke have no pharmacological grounds. 8) When one gets a boil, such herb remedies are commonly used as applying a plaster, paste of flour mixed with yolk, soy sauce or honey, as well as spreading pounded elm tree. Other remedies that have been said to be effective are ; heating with mugwort, brine, wild rocambole, aloe, onion, squid's bone, etc. The use of mugwort is based upon pain killing, astringent antiinflammatory and tranquility. Wild rocambole is based upon the generation and maintenance functions of cell-joining textures ; elm tree upon antiphlogistic ; aloe upon fever removal and antiphlogistic ; onion on pain killing, fever removal, antiphlogistic and tranquility ; squid's bone on astriction: and brine or vinegar on sterilization. Pine resin and gardenia seed are said to be effective, but they have no pharmacological basis. 9) When one cuts his skin, such herb remedies are commonly employed as spreading mugwort's juice or squid's bone powder, or pressing the wounds. In addition, kalopanax, onion and fine soil are employed. The use of mugwort, kalopanax and squid's bone is based upon such functions as hemostasis, sedation, pain killing, antibacterial ; and fine soil is said to be effective, but it has no pharmacological basis. 10) When one suffers from whitlow, such herb remedies are commonly utilized as heating with boiled soy sauce, spreading soybean paste, or dipping into eggs, etc. Other drugs that have been employed are onion root, brine, eggplant, potato, loach, etc. The use of onion is based upon pain killing and antiphlogistic functions ; and that of brine upon antiphlogistic function. The use of soy sauce or soybean paste, fomentation, eggplant, potato and loach is said to be effective, but it has no pharmacblogic ground. 11) For the treatment of frostbite, such herb remedies are commonly used as dipping the affected part into frozen soybean sack, using boiled water of eggplant stem, garlic caulis, onion, hot pepper, caulis. Onion is based upon antiphlogistic and tranquility actions garlic upon disintection, metabolic exacerbation, tonic and aphrodisiac actions and the use of eggplant and hot pepper is based upon help blood circulation, dissolution and excretion of waste matters in vein. 12) For the treatment of burn, such herb remedies or drugs are commonly used as cleansing with Korean gin, spreading eggs, cleansing with cold water and soap water ; and as brine, cactus, moss, soybean paste, oil, etc. The cleansing with Korean gin, cold water, soap water, brine, vinegar is based upon cleaning and sterilizing functions ; and the use of cucumber is based upon nu. trition provision, and strengthening of resisting power by adjustment of metabolism. The use of potato, cactus, moss, oil and eggs is said to be effective, but their phamacological functions are not clarified. In view of the above results, we can realize that the drugs that have been employed in herb remedies are quite diverse. However, in regard to majority of herb remedies that have been employed by symptoms, the pharmacological functions of their drugs have not been clarified, and they are merely known as effective. Furthermore, they have not been recorded in the literature as yet ; and we confirm that there have been many herb remedies that were executed without the proper knowlege of their effects. It is now our view that the results of this survey may be utilized for consulting data in regard to the use of herb remedies.

배경: 출혈성 쇼크는 허혈 시 발생하는 산소산화물 등에 의해 체내에 여러 가지 염증반응을 일으킴으로써 각 장기의 기능부전을 초래한다. 특히 폐장은 허혈 시 조기에 폐포 세포의 투과성이 증가하여 부종, 염증세포의 침윤 및 출혈 등이 일어나 호흡부전증을 초래한다. 또한 출혈성 쇼크 시 기본적으로 시행하는 수액 요법은 간질의 부종을 일으켜 폐장의 기능을 감소시킬 수 있는 위험 요소이다. 따라서 출혈성 쇼크 후 폐장의 기능 저하를 예방하기 위해서는 폐장의 염증 반응을 줄이고 폐부종을 최소화시키는 노력이 필요하다. 대상 및 방법: $300{\sim}350$ gm 정도의 수컷 흰쥐를 이용하여 경정맥을 통해 약 3 mL/100 g의 혈액을 제거하여 평균 경동맥압 $35{\sim}40$ mmHg의 출혈성 쇼크 상태(I단계, 60분)를 유도하고 유지한 후, 제거한 혈액을 재주입하고 수액요법을 실시하여 평균 경동맥압을 80 mmHg로 유지하는 소생 상태(II 단계, 60분)를 시행한 후 약 3시간 정도 경과를 관찰(III 단계)하였다. 실험동물은 3군으로 나누어 실험하였으며 I군(n=10)은 I 단계 시 직장체온을 $37{\pm}1^{\circ}C$로 유지하고 II 단계에서 린저액을 이용하여 수액요법을 실시하였다. II 군(n=10)은 I 단계 시 직장체온을 $33{\pm}1^{\circ}C$로 유지하고 II단계에서 린저액을 이용한 수액요법을 실시하였다. III군은 I단계 시 $33{\pm}1^{\circ}C$로 체온을 유지하였고 II 단계에서 5% 알부민액을 이용하여 수액요법을 실시하였다. 각 군 모두 실험 전, I, II, III 단계 후반에 혈류역학적 인자(심박수, 평균 경동맥압), 동맥혈 가스 분석, 혈청내 포도당과 LDH, I, II단계의 투여 수액양, 기관지-폐포 세척액의 Interleukin(IL)-8을 측정하였고, 조직검사를 통해 염증반응의 정도를 조직학적 점수로 평가하였다. 결과: I군의 4예를 제외한 26예가 III단계까지 생존하였다. 각 군 간의 평균 경동맥압의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 그러나 실험 1단계에서의 채혈량은 I군은 $3.2{\pm}0.5$ mL/100 g으로 II, III 군의 $3.9{\pm}0.8$ mL/100 g, $4.1{\pm}0.7$ mL/100 g에 비해 각각 유의하게 적었다(p< 0.05). II 단계에서의 투여 수액량은 I 군 $28.6{\pm}6.0$ mL, II 군 $20.6{\pm}4.0$ mL, III 군 $14.7{\pm}2.7$ mL로 각 군 간에 통계적인 유의성이 있었다(p<0.05). 혈청내 칼륨 농도는 I군에서 II군에 비해 소생술 후 의의 있게 높았으며(p<0.05), 포도당 농도는 II단계의 I군에서 타군과 비교하여 현저히 낮았다(p<0.05). IL-8은 I 군 $1,834{\pm}437$ pg/mL, II 군 $1,006{\pm}532$ pg/mL, III군 $764{\pm}302$ pg/mL로 I 군에서 II 및 III군과 비교하여 통계적으로 유의하게 높았으며(p<0.05), 폐조직의 조직검사를 통해 평가한 염증세포 분포 점수에서 III 군이 $1.6{\pm}0.6$으로 I 군 $2.8{\pm}1.2$에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다(p<0.05). 결론: 압력 조절형 출혈성 쇼크 모델에서 시행한 저체온법은 정상체온을 유지하고 있는 군에 비해 쇼크 상태에서의 기초대사량을 줄여줌으로써 허혈에 의한 조직의 직접적인 손상을 억제할 수 있으리라 생각된다. 또한 저체온법은 수액의 사용량을 줄여주고 IL-8등의 싸이토카인 분비를 억제시키며 백혈구의 침윤을 줄여줌으로써 쇼크 후 폐장의 기능 회복에 도움을 준다. 그러나 저체온법을 시행한 군에서도 투여하는 수액을 달리함으로써 폐장의 염증변화나 손상이 차이를 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 생각되며 이에 대한 세심한 연구가 있어야 할 것이다.

연구배경 : 폐 섬유화증의 진행에는 세포외 간질의 대사에 관여하는 gelatinase가 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있으며, gelatinase의 작용은 사이토카인을 비롯한 여러 가지 요소에 의해 조절되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 지금까지 $interferon-{\gamma}$($IFN-{\gamma}$)는 폐섬유화를 억제하는 것으로 알려져 있지만 gelatinase의 작용에 $IFN-{\gamma}$가 미치는 영향은 잘 밝혀져 있지 않다. 이에 저자들은 bleomycin 유도 백서 폐 섬유화 모델에서 $IFN-{\gamma}$가 폐 섬유화에 미치는 영향과MMP-2, -9과 이의 길항제인 TIMP-1, -2 그리고 Th-2 사이토카인의 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사함으로써, $IFN-{\gamma}$가 폐 섬유화증에 미치는 영향과 기전을 연구하고자 하였다. 재료 및 방법 : Sprague-Dawley계의 수컷 흰쥐를 정상 대조군, bleomycin 군, bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군의 세 군으로 나누어, bleomycin 군 과 bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군은 bleomycin sulfate를 생리식염수에 섞어 기관 내로 주입하였고(6 U/kg), bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군은 $IFN-{\gamma}$를 14일간 근육주사 하였다($2{\times}105U/kg$). 실험동물은 3, 7, 14, 28일에 폐를 얻어 hematoxylineosin 염색과 Masson's trichrome 염색을 하여 폐의 염증 반응과 섬유화 정도를 관찰하였고, 폐 조직 내의 hydroxyproline 함량, MMP-2, -9, TIMP-1, -2에 대한 Western blot, zymography와 reverse zymography, IL-4와 IL-13에 대한 ELISA검사를 시행하였다. 결 과 : 1. 폐 염증은 bleomycin 투여 7일째에는 $IFN-{\gamma}$를 투여한 경우 더 심하게 일어났으나(bleomycin 군 : bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군=$2.08{\pm}0.15:2.74{\pm}0.29$, P<0.05), 폐 섬유화는 bleomycin 투여 후 28일째 $IFN-{\gamma}$ 투여에 의해 유의하게 감소되었다(bleomycin 군 : bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군=$3.94{\pm}0.43:2.46{\pm}0.13$, P<0.05). 2. 폐 내 hydroxyproline 함량은 bleomycin 투여 28일 후 $IFN-{\gamma}$ 투여에 의해 유의하게 감소되었다(bleomycin 군 : bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군=$294.04{\pm}31.73{\mu}g/g:194.92{\pm}15.51{\mu}g/g$, P<0.05). 3. Bleomycin 투여에 의해 MMP-2 단백질의 양이 증가되는 소견이 Western blot에서 관찰되었는데 MMP-2의 증가는 bleomycin 투여 14일에 최고에 이르렀으며, $IFN-{\gamma}$의 투여에 의해 bleomycin에 의한 MMP-2의 증가는 억제되었으나 대조군 수준으로 감소하지는 않았다. 4. Zymography 검사에서 bleomycin 투여 3일째에는 활성화된 형태의 MMP-2가 $IFN-{\gamma}$에 의해 유의하게 증가되었으나(bleomycin 군 : bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군=$209.63{\pm}7.60%:407.66{\pm}85.34%$, P<0.05), 투여 14일 후에서는 $IFN-{\gamma}$에 의해 활성화된 상태의 MMP-2가 유의하게 감소되었다(bleomycin 군 : bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군=$159.36{\pm}20.93%:97.23{\pm}12.50%$, P<0.05). 5. Bleomycin을 투여한 후 bleomycin 군과 bleomycin+$IFN-{\gamma}$ 군 모두에서 IL-4의 양이 감소되었으나, 두 군간 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았고, IL-13은 별 다른 차이가 없었다. 결 론 : Bleomycin에 의한 백서 폐 섬유화 모델에서 $IFN-{\gamma}$는 초기 폐 염증을 증가시키지만 후기 폐 섬유화는 억제시킨다는 것을 알 수 있었다. $IFN-{\gamma}$가 폐 섬유화를 억제하는 것은 MMP-2의 활성화를 억제하기 때문인 것으로 생각한다. 또한 $IFN-{\gamma}$에 의한 MMP-2의 기능 억제는 Th-2 사이토카인을 억제하여 이루어지는 것 같지는 않았다. 본 논문을 기초로 향후 $IFN-{\gamma}$가 MMP-2의 활성화를 조절하는 기전과 MMP-2의 활성화가 폐섬유화에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각한다.
