The spasmogenic activities and acute toxicity study of Yumijangquebo (YMJQB), a Korean herbal laxative formulation, were subjected to pharmacological evaluation. When tested in the contractile extent of guinea pig ileum, YMJQB displayed a spasmogenic effects in a concentration up to 0.05mg/ml and then decreased contractility of ileum; exhibiting the similar pattern with acetylcholine, a physiological regulator for peristaltic movement of the gut.(omitted)

Continuation of a phytochemical study of Cichorium intybus L. (Astraceae) growing in Egypt, resulted in the isolation and identification of a new sesquiterpene lactone 3,4-dihydrolactucin, in addition to the eight known compounds; kaempferol, isoscutellarin, cichoriin, umbelliferone, lupeol, lupeol acetate, ${\beta}-sitosterol$, and ${\beta}-sitosterol-3-O-glucoside$. Chemical structures of the isolated compounds were assigned based on different physical, chemical, and spectroscopic techniques including IR, UV, MS, 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra. Furthermore, the antimicrobial, and spasmogenic activities of some fractions and isolates were also assessed.

DKY is an oriental drug preparation composed of 17 natural products and is known to have antihyperglycemic action at 100 mg/kg po in animal tests. The general pharmacological properties of DKY preparation were investigate in mice, rats, guinea pigs and rabbits. This preparation did neither show any effects on central nervous system, nor effects on algesia, nor epilepsia at the large doses of 3000 mg/kg po in mice or rats. However, the preparation showed hypothermic action at the doses of 330 and 1000 mg/kg po. In the guinea pig ileum, rat fundus strip and estrogenized rat uterus, DKY did not influence their tension at a concentration of 3$\times$10$^{-3}$ g/ml, and the spasmogenic actions produced by histamine, ACh and 5-HT were not blocked in the presence of DKY at 3$\times$10$^{-3}$ g/ml. The blood pressure and respiration were not considerably influenced at 10 mg/kg iv of DKY in rabbits. It did not influence the intestinal propulsion of mice and the normal gastric secretion of rats. These results may suggest that DKY preparation have little effects on central nervous, autonomic and gastrointestimal systems, except hypothermic action.
