This study was carried out to investigate the solubility of the ingredients of the kidney stone in the solution of the traditional oriental medicines. Calcium hydroxide, apatite and uric acid were chosen as the ingredients of the kidney stone. Plantaginis Semen, Lysimachiae Herba, Saururi Herba seu Rhizoma, Imperatae Rhizoma, Allium tuberosum Rottler were studied as the oriental medicines for the kidney stone. Calcium hydroxide had showed the very good solubility in the solution of Imperatae Rhizoma, the apatite had showed the good solubility in the solutions of Saururi Herba seu Rhizoma and Allium tuberosum Rottler. Uric acid had showed the mild solubility in the solution of Lysimachiae Herba and Saururi Herba seu Rhizoma.

Rhizoctonia stem rot of Saururui herba [Saururus chinensis (Lour) Baill] was observed during plantations from 1996 to 1997 in Chungbuk area. Infected plant showed damping-off and stem rot at soil line. The causal fungus of stem rot isolated from the infected plant was identified as Rhizoctonia solani according to the criteria based on the cultural and morphological characteristics. The stem rot of Saururi herba caused by Rhizoctonia solani was first described in Korea, and the name the“Rhizoctonia black stem rot”is proposed.

Purpose : The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of Saurui Herba Seu Rhizoma(SHSR) on Anti-inflammatory properties in Raw264.7 cell line and murine models of inflammation. Methods : To investigate the effects of Saurui Herba Seu Rhizoma(SHSR) on anti-inflammation, we study cytotoxicity effects of SHSR on Mouse Lung Fibroblast Cells and Peritoneal Macrophages, Inhibitory effects of SHSR on the nitric oxide (NO) release, the ROS production, and the interleukin-6 production. Results : The cytotoxicity of SHSR on mouse lung fibroblast Cells and Raw264.7 cell line was not observed. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line inhibited $IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6 mRNA gene expression depending upon the concentrations of extract and inhibited IL-18 mRNA gene expression at 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ of extract. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line inhibit COX-2 mRNA gene expression at 100, 10 ${\mu}g/ml$ of extract. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line inhibited NOS-II mRNA gene expression depending upon the concentrations of extract. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line didn't inhibit $TNF-{\alpha}$ mRNA　gene expression. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line decreased IL-6 production depending　upon the concentrations of extract. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line decreased $ITNF-{\alpha}$ production according to the concentrations of extract. SHSR in RAW264.7 cell line inhibited NO release specially SHSR 100, 10 ${\mu}g/ml$ concentrations of extract. SHSR inhibit ROS production depending upon the concentrations of extract. Conclusion : These results suggest that SHSR can be used treating a lot of women disease caused by inflammation.

For the investigation of bioactive natural products with analgesic activity, we have evaluated various extracts of Saururi Herba (Saururaceae), which has been used in traditiona l medicine for edema, beriberi, jaundice, turbid urine, carbuncle and furuncle. The diethylether extract of this plant was found to show a significant analgesic effect on writhing syndrome in mice. Using bioactivity-guided separation of the diethylether extract, analgesic constituent, (8S, 8`R, 7R, 6`R)-2'-oxo-4,5: 4',5'-bis(methylenedioxy)-${\Delta}^{1,3,5,3'}$-8.8', 7.6', 2.O.5'-neolignan(sauchinone) was isolated and structurally identified by physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic evidences. This compound has good analgesic activity with lower toxicity, as compared to other antipyretic-analgesic drug(acetaminophen).

This study was carried out to investigate the effects SMTG on the skin inflammatory reactions. Among the herbal ingredients of SMTG, ethanol extracts of Paeoniae obovata Radix and Acanthopanacis Cortex showed potent radical scavenging activity, more than 90$\%$ at a concnentration of 0.01$\%$, tested by DPPH(1,l-diphenyl-2-picryl-hyrazyl) method. And ethanol extract of Saururi Herba Seu Rhizoma inhibited the lipopolysaccharide-induced release of nitric oxide(NO), 94$\%$ at 50 ㎍／㎖, by the macrophage RAW 246.7 cells. In addition, the ethanol extract of Acanthopanacis Cortex showed antibacterial activities on Staphylococcus aureus that was reported to cause impetigo and atopic disease. Taken together, I expect that SMTG may be used as a drug for treatment on skin inflammation.

HERBA SAURURI (HS) has been known to use antiinflammatory drug. To investigated the mechanism of HS-induced NO synthesis, I evaluated the ability of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors such as staurosporine (STSN) or polyymyxin B to block HS-induced effects. HS alone had only a small effect, whereas in combination with $rIFN-{\gamma}$, markedly increased NO synthesis in a dose dependent manner. STSN and polymyxin B decreased NO synthesis, which had been induced by $rIFN-{\gamma}$, plus HS. Furthermore, prolonged incubation of the cells with phorbol ester, which down-regulates PKC activity abolished synergistic cooperative effect of HS with $rIFN-{\gamma}$ on NO synthesis. STSN and Polymyxin B potently inhibited HS-induced $TNF-{\alpha}$ secretion by $rIFN-{\gamma}$ plus HS. However, $rIFN-{\gamma}$ plus $TNF-{\alpha}-induced$ NO synthesis was not blocked by STSN or polymyxin B. On the other hand, tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein, blocked the NO synthesis and $TNF-{\alpha}$ secretion by $rIFN-{\gamma}$ plus HS. In conlusion, the present results strongly suggest that the capacity of HS to increase NO synthesis from $rIFN-{\gamma}-primed$ macrophages is the result of HS-induced $TNF-{\alpha}$ secretion via the signal transduction pathway of PKC and tyrosine kinase.

In our search for bioactive natural products with antitumor activity, we have valuated various extracts of Saururi Herba (Saururaceae), which has been used in traditional medici ne for edema, beriberi, jaundice, turbid urine, carbuncle and furuncle. The hexane extract of the aerial part of this plant was found to show a potent cytotoxicity against several kinds of cultured human solid tumor cell lines (AGS, A549, HCT15, SKOV3, HEP-3B) in vitro. Using cytotoxicity-guided chromatographic separation of the hexane extract, cytotoxic constituent: 10-aminomethyl-3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenanthrene-carboxylic acid lactam, was isolated and structurally identified by physico-chemical properties and spectroscopic evidences.
