  • Objectives: This study assessed the application of Oryung-san (Wuling-san or Gorei-san), a common diuretic in traditional medicine, as an antihypertensive agent. Methods: Experimental studies of the pharmacological properties of Oryung-san, including diuretic action and lowering effects on blood pressure, and toxicology and clinical trials were reviewed. Results: In pharmacology, various, relatively safe diuretics are used to lower blood pressure and are the oldest and most studied antihypertensive agents. Despite many new drug approvals, antihypertensive diuretics are frequently used in Korea and Japan where high levels of sodium uptake are common. Oryung-san has been demonstrated to have diuretic, antihypertensive, and nephroprotective effects. Conclusions: Oryung-san might be effective for lowering blood pressure based on the results of this literature review. Further evaluations and large-scale clinical trials of Oryung-san to treat primary hypertension are warranted.

  • This study investigated the effect of InJinORyungSan on the nephrotoxicity in rat treated with cyclosporin A. Control group were injected with cyclosporin A alone. whereas test group were injected with cyclosporin A and InJinORyungSan extract. In the control group, blood urea nitrogen(BUN), serum creatinine(S-Cr) and renal lipid peroxidation(LPO) level were significantly increased, but renal superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity was significantly decreased. In the kidney of control group, the destruction of distal convoluted tubules(DCT) and proximal convoluted tubules(PCT) were observed in renal cortex, lymphocytes and fibroblast were appeared in the portion of DCT destruction. However, in the test group, BUN, S-Cr and renal LPO level were significantly decreased as compared with control group, on the other hand, renal SOD activity was significantly increased. In the kidney of test group, the destruction of DCT and PCT were repaired as compared with control group. These results demonstrated that InJinORyungSan. can be attributed to recovery from nephrotoxicity, We consider that activated SOD by InJinORyungSan suppress renal LPO or production of free radicals induced by cyclosporin A.

  • Objectives : To report a case of the treatment of primary hypertension by Oryung-san (五苓散: Wulingsan in Chinese, Goreisan in Japanese) monotherapy. Methods : The blood pressure (BP) fluctuation was checked of a woman who had sudden BP elevation without a history of hypertension treatment. There were no specific history of disease and results for the laboratory examination and image diagnosis including MRI. The woman was diagnosed with primary hypertension and she was given supple of Oryung-san extract (Hanpoong Pharm Co.) 3 g, three times a day for three months. The BP has been checked with digital sphygmomanometer (HEM-7111, Omron Japan) in brachial artery at home. Results and Conclusions : The patient had had stable BP since three weeks after Oryung-san treatment was initiated. There were no subjective symptoms, then Oryung-san medication also had quit after three months treatments. This shows some possibility to control hypertension using Oryung-san, which resembles thiazide that acts on the distal convoluted tubule and inhibit sodium-chloride reabsorption. For further evaluation of the effectiveness, well-designed randomized controlled trials should be undertaken.

  • Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) induce insulin sensitization through the activation of PPAR${\gamma}$. However, the undesirable effect such as weight gain was observed. The purpose of this study was to find out an herbal drug that could reduce the side effects of pioglitazone. Among herbal formula that we have searched, oryung-san (OR) inhibited the differentiation of preadipocytes and did not affect on glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In vitro, glucose uptake assay and Oil Red-O staining in 3T3-L1 adipocytes were conducted. In vivo, pioglitazone (PIO, 30 mg/kg), oryung-san (OR, 300 mg/kg), or pioglitazone co-administered with oryung-san (PIO+OR) were administered orally for 7 weeks in high fat diet (HFD) fed ICR mice and measured the body weight and blood glucose level every week. PIO+OR group significantly reduced body weight gain, triglyceride, and total cholesterol compared to PIO group. In addition, PIO+OR group showed a significant reduction of plasma glucose level (72%) compared to HFD control group. Insulin levels in PIO+OR group was also markedly decreased by 85% and 41% compared to HFD control and PIO group, respectively. Diameter of white adipocytes was decreased in the PIO+OR group compared to that in PIO group. Moreover, PIO+OR group reduced expression of PPAR${\gamma}$ and SREBP1a compared to PIO group. Taken together, oryung-san can improve side effects of pioglitazone, such as weight gain and edema, and shows a synergistic effect in plasma insulin levels.

  • Objectives: To compare the contents of hazardous substances before/after a decoction. Methods : The heavy metal contents before/after a decoction were measured by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometer (ICP-AES) and mercury analyzer. In order to analyze pesticides in 6 samples we used simultaneous multi-residue analysis of pesticides by GC/ECD, which was followed by GC/MSD analysis to confirm the identity of the detected pesticide in each sample. In addition, the contents of sulfur dioxide (S02) were performed by Monier-Williams distillation method. Results : 1. The mean values of heavy metal contents (mg/kg) for the samples were as follows: Socheongryong-tang (before decoction - Pb; 1.115, Cd; 0.179, As; 0.069 and Hg; 0.028, after decoction - Pb; 0.110, Cd; 0.011, As; 0.005 and Hg; 0.002), Insampaedok-san (before decoction - Pb; 1.207, Cd; 0.148, As; 0.171 and Hg; 0.026, after decoction - Pb; 0.075, Cd; 0.006, As; not detected and Hg; O.OOD, Oryung-san (before decoction - Pb; 1.955, Cd; 0.430, As; 0.063 and Hg; 0.027, after decoction - Pb; 0.083, Cd; 0.013, As; 0.006 and Hg; 0.002), Hwangryunhaedok-tang (before decoction - Pb; 1.825, Cd; 0.210, As; 0.050 and Hg; 0.009, after decoction - Pb; 0.107, Cd; 0.010, As; 0.005 and Hg; O.OOD, Bangpungtongseong-san (before decoction - Pb; 1.740, Cd; 0.162, As; 0.585 and Hg; 0.018, after decoction - Pb; 0.041, Cd; 0.006, As; 0.022 and Hg; not detected) and Oyaksungi-san (before decoction - Pb; 1.199, Cd; 0.183, As; 0.321 and Hg; 0.031, after decoction - Pb; 0.096, Cd; 0.008, As; 0.021 and Hg; 0.0004). 2. Contents (mg/kg) of sulfur dioxide (S0$_2$) before a decoction in Socheongryong-tang, Insampaedok-san, Oryung-san, Hwangryunhaedok-tang, Bangpungtongseong-san and Oyaksungi-san exhibited 3.2, 5.7, 4.5, 49.8, 7.8 and 22.4, respectively. However, contents of sulfur dioxide after a decoction in all samples were not detected. 3. Contents (mg/kg) of residual pesticides before/after a decoction in all samples were not detected. Conclusions : These results will be used to establish a criterion of heavy metals, residual pesticides and sulfur dioxide.

  • Objective: To compare the contents and transfer rate of hazardous substances in crude, washing solution, crude after washing, decoction and remnant after boiling. Methods: The heavy metal contents of each step were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) and mercury analyzer (SP-3DS). In order to analyze pesticides in each sample we used simultaneous multi-residue analysis of pesticides by GC/ECD, which was followed by GC/MSD analysis to confirm the identity of the detected pesticide in each sample. In addition, the contents of sulfur dioxide ($SO_2$) were performed by Monier-Williams distillation method. Results: 1. Contents (mg/kg) of heavy metals were not detected in decoctions of any tested herbal medicine prescriptions. 2. Transfer rates (%) of heavy metals from crude to remnant were as follows: Yijin-tang (As: 46.9, Cd: 50.0 and Pb: 100.0), Oryung-san (As: 80.0, Cd: 100.0 and Pb: 73.8), Hwangryunhaedok-tang (As: 88.9, Cd: 71.4 and Pb: 92.7), Bangpungtongseong-san (As: 100.0, Cd: 17.3 and Pb: 56.1), Oyaksungi-san (As: 47.4, Cd: 175.0 and Pb: 142.4). 3. Contents (mg/kg) of residual pesticides were not detected in any samples. 4. Transfer rate (%) of sulfur dioxide ($SO_2$) from crude to remnant in all samples were as follows: Yijin-tang (25.0), Oryung-san (166.7), Hwangryunhaedok-tang (50.0), Bangpungtongseong-san (181.8), Oyaksungi-san (50.0). Conclusion: Our results showed that the boiled herbal medicine prescriptions which we take are safe from the hazardous substances.
