Antioxidant effects of Rosa davurica Pall extract on copper-mediated LDL oxidative modification were investigated. Oxidation products of LDL were determined based on TBA value, formation of conjugate diene, and apolipoprotein carbonyl value. As revealed through TBA values, ethyl acetate and butanol fractions of R. davurica Pall root showed strong antioxidant effect, with 85.3 and 93.2% inhibitions at $30\;{\mu}g/mL$ each, respectively. Ethyl acetate and butanol fractions at $30\;{\mu}g/mL$ inhibited LDL oxidation up to 8 hr. Conjugate diene formation by lipid oxidation with $Cu^{2+}$ addition in ethyl acetate and butanol fractions decreased 2.2-and 5.6-fold, respectively, compared to control. Carbonyl value decreased in the presence of butanol and ethyl acetate fractions. Methanol and ethyl acetate extracts of R. davurica Pall root showed higher absorbancy at 285 nm. Ethanol extract of R. davurica Pall root and stem contained 10.6 g/100 g total phenolic compounds. Results reveal phenolic compound as major biological component in R. davurica Pall extracts. Ethyl acetate and butanol fraction showed strongest antioxidant effect on LDL oxidation.

A folk prescription consisting of Alnus hirsuta, Rosa davurica, Acanthopanax senticosus and Panax schinseng has been used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the antidiabetic effects of the herb formula extract (HFE) composed of Alnus hirsuta, Rosa davurica, Acanthopanax senticosus and Panax schinseng in the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. The HFE was mixed in the food supply of the healthy and STZ-induced diabetic male Sprague-Dawley rats, and its effects on the body weight, water and food intake, hyperglycemia, hypolipidemic and islet structure were studied. The treatment of the rats with STZ for 6 weeks resulted in marasmus, polydipsia, polyphagia, hyperglycemia and hypoinsulinemia. In addition, the diabetic rats showed an apparent decrease in the insulin immunoreactivity and the number of ${\beta}$-cells in the pancreas. The addition of the HFE to the rats' food supply significantly lowered the serum glucose and the serum triglycerides level and preserved the normal histological appearance of the pancreatic islets. These results indicate that the HEF have a strong antidiabetic potential along with the significant hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects, which may be applicable in the pharmaceutical industry.

Vitamin contents in different plant parts and harvesting time of Rosa davurica Pall. were determined to examine their applicability for a new medicinal supply. Among plant parts analysed, leaf contained the highest ascorbic acid concent of 1973.9 mg/100g. Fruit contained ascorbic acid (714.6mg/100g) 2. 7 times less than leaf. Vitamin contents in leaf parts also differed depending on harvesting time. Vitamin content in leaves harvested in November was much higher than that in September. Spectrophotometric analysis of total ${\beta}-carotene$ in leaf showed higher contents than that in fruit.

The objective of this study was carried out to investigate biological activities effects of Korean leaf from Rosa davurica Pall. in vitro. They were extracted with methanol, ethanol, chloroform and water. Methods of the antimutagenic used in this experiment were well-known bacterial short term tests which include Ames test and the antigenotoxic used in this experiment was DPPH radical scavenge. All extracts (ethanol, methanol, water) except chloroform extract exhibited 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity with IC$\_$50/ of 11.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, 6.4 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, 4.8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. In Ames test, most of extracts had strong antimutagenic effects against the mutagenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4NQO), N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), 3-amino-l,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indol(Trp-P-I) and benzo(${\alpha}$)pyrene(B(${\alpha}$)P). The extracts of leaves (200 $\mu\textrm{g}$/plate) showed approximately 60∼80％ inhibitory effect on the mutagenesis induced by 4NQO, Trp-P-1 and B(${\alpha}$)P against TA98 strain, whereas 60∼80％ inhibition were observed on the mutagenesis induced by MNNG, 4NQO, Trp-P-1 and B(${\alpha}$)P against TA100 strain. respectively.

Objectives : Rosae Multiflorae Fructus is a traditional medicine derived from the fruit of Rosa multiflora Thunb. a member of the Rosaceae family. Even though it has a single origin, the possibility of adulterants has always existed. In fact, we had discovered suspicious commercial samples of Rosae Multiflorae Fructus, imported from China. Methods : To define the taxonomic origin of Rosae Multiflorae Fructus and its adulterants, DNA barcode analysis of the internal transcribed spacer, trnL-F intergenic spacer, and psbA-trnH sequences was carried out. These DNA barcode sequences from the correct origin of Rosae Multiflorae Fructus were analyzed and compared with those of other samples from genus Rosa used as medicinal herbs. Results : The analyses of the three DNA barcode sequences efficiently distinguished Rosae Multiflorae Fructus from six other species in genus Rosa and also separated each species used in this study. According to the DNA barcoding results, none of the suspicious commercial samples were Rosae Multiflorae Fructus. RMF09 was identified as Rosa acicularis, whereas RMF10 and RMF11 were identified as Rosa davurica and Rosa rugosa, respectively. These results corroborated the existence of adulterants of Rosae Multiflorae Fructus. Conclusions : Our research provides useful information that could be used as a criterion for distinguishing between Rosae Multiflorae Fructus and its adulterants. These results will help in the prevention of adulteration and also suggest effective methods for verifying the origin of commercial herbal medicines derived from genus Rosa.

Vitamin contents in three different types of the fruits and seeds of Rosa davurica Pall. were determined to examine their applicability for a new health food products as well as medical supplies. HPLC analysis of the fruits showed that circular(L) type fruits contained the highest ascorbic acid (AA) concentration (911mg/1000g). Elliptical and circular(S) type fruits contained a little less amounts of AA, their concentrations being 358mg/l00g and 344mg/100g, respectively. Spectrophotometric analysis of total ${\beta}-carotene$ contents in the fruits showed a similar amount of ${\beta}-carotene$ in elliptical (286mg/100g) and circular(L) (208mg/100g) type fruits, but a far less amount was shown in the circular(S) type fruits (24 mg/100g).

Ozone(O$_3$), one of best-known toxic air pollutant, act as a strong oxidant. It is possible that skins exposed to the air can be easily damaged by such oxidative air pollutants. Therefore, in the present study, anti-oxidative effects of natural product. on $O_2$ㆍ and ㆍOH were investigated by EPR. Ozone caused protein damage and lipid oxidation, in HaCaT and B16F10 leading ultimately to programmed cell death. It also reduced the level of antioxidant molecules including ascorbic acid and tocopherol in stratum comeum. However, antioxidants originated from natural products could protect skin from these products could protect skin from these oxidative damages. We concluded that eight natural extracts including Rosa davurica, Ligularia sibrica, Green tea acted as strong antioxidants against ozone.
