This study was conducted to investigate the antitoxic component in ethanol extract of Saururus chinesis (S. chinesis). The results were as follows: Generally, detoxication effects by s. chinesis extract increased in proportion to the extract concentration. non 8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g dosage of S. chinesis extract was administered, it showed the highest antitoxic effects in metallothionein induction. After the extract treatment, body weights generally increased In proportion to the extract concentrations. from the above results, S. chinesis extract Increased Metallothionein concentration and decreased the toxicity of cadmium In rats. In vitro the antitoxic activity of ethanol extract of S. chinesis on NIH3T3 fibroblasts was evaluated by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide) and SRB (sulforhodamine B protein) assays. The light microscopic study was carried out to observe morphological changes of the treeated cells. $10^{-2}$mg/ml Concentrations of S. chinesis extract was shown significant antitoxic activity. The number of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts were increased and tend to regenerate. These result suggest that S. chinesis extract retains a potential antitoxic activity.

이 연구는 MCF-7 인간 유방암 세포주에 대한 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 추출물의 증식억제효과 세포독성효과 세포사 유발효과를 확인하기 위하여 이루어졌다. MCF-7 인간 유방암 세포주는 Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium/F12 (DMEM/F12)에 10% fetal bovine serum(FBS;Gibco) 와 항생제를 가하여 만든 배지를 이용하여 배양하였고, MCPF-7 세포를 96- well plate에 접종한 후 다양한 농도(0~2000g/ml)의 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯)이 든 배지로 처리하고 다양한 시간(48, 96, 192)동안 배양하여 현미경으로 관찰하고 각각 MTS assay kit를 이용하여 세포생존율을 측정하였다. 세포독성은 Sulforhodamine B assay 방법을 이용해 측정하였고 세포사 과정에서 MCF-7세포에서의 caspase 활성화를 측정하기 위해 Western blotting을 수행하여 poly ADP ribose polymerase(PARP)의 절단을 확인하였다. 실험결과 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 추출물에 의한 세포성장 및 독성효과는 시간 및 농도에 비례하는 것으로 나타났고 세포고사과정에서 작용하는 caspase의 전 기질인 PARP 절단량이 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 처리 농도와 시간에 비례하여 증가하였다. 이것은 caspase-3가 MCF-7 세포의 성장을 억제하는데 중요한 역할을 수행함을 의미한다. 따라서 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯)은 다양한 기전에 의해서 유방암 세포에 대한 억제효과를 가진다는 것을 인식할 수 있다.

Purpose : This investigation was undertaken to evaluate the antiproliferation, atoptosis of Sam-nueng(Sparganii Rhizoma) extract using MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Methods : MCF-7 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium/F12(DMEM/F12) supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum(FBS; Gibco) and antibiotics. At varying times after extract treatment, cells were harvested with scraper and processed for analysis of protein expression, proliferation, cytotoxicity and apoptosis. Results : Our results show that the extract of Sam-nueng(Sparganii Rhizoma) strongly inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7 cells in a dose and time-dependent manner. Sulforhodamine B showed that the addition of Sam-nueng(Sparganii Rhizoma) extract reduced the viability of MCF-7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Poly[ADP(ribose)] polymerase(PARP) which serves as a marker of cells undergoing apoptosis, a major substrate for caspase-3 was extensively cleaved in the Sam-nueng(Sparganii Rhizoma)-treated cells. Conclusion : So, we can conclude that Sam-nueng(Sparganii Rhizoma) can have an inhibitive effect on MCF-7 human breast cancer cells by variable mechanisms.

The purpose of this study is to examine the elemental compositions, antioxidant and antitumor activity of water, 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% ethanol extracts obtained from the fruiting body of Phellinus gilvus. In electron donating ability test, the strong activities more than 70% were observed in $80{\mu}g/ml$ of 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% ethanol extracts from the fruiting body of P. gilvus grown in oak and sawdust. The antitumor activity was evaluated by sulforhodamine B (SRB) in terms of cell survival level. The tumor cells (sarcoma 180) were treated with various ethanol extracts (water, 20, 40, 60 and 80%). The results showed that all extracts inhibited proliferation showing a dose-dependent manner against tumor cells.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Origanum vulgare extracts on cell proliferation of human hair dermal papilla cell (HHDPC) using sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay, antioxidant activity by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) method, expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) by analyzing reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and hair growth in a shaving animal model of C57BL/6 mice topically applying with an amount of 0.1 mL once a day for 3 weeks. The mice were divided into 4 groups including normal group (saline, N), negative control group (dimethyl sulfoxide, NC), positive control group (5 mg/mL minoxidil, PC), and experimental group (Origanum vulgare extracts, OV). Treatment of OV didn't show cytotoxicity in HHDPC up to 10 ${\mu}g/mL$ and exhibited antioxidant activity with $IC_{50}$ of 31.0 ${\mu}g/mL$. IGF-1 expression in the skin was significantly (p<0.05) increased in the PC and OV compared to the N or NC. PC and OV also showed a prominently promoted hair regrowth compared to the N or NC in hair growth observation. The hair regrowth of OV was significantly higher than that of PC (p<0.05). Therefore, these results indicate that O. vulgare extracts effectively stimulated hair growth in an animal model.

This study was condo더ed to investigate the antitoxic component in aqueous extract of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$. The results were as follows: Generally, detoxification effects by Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract increased in proportion to the extract concentrations in rats. When 40 mBtg dosage of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract was administrated, Houttynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract showed the highest antitoxic effects in metallothionein induction. After the extract treatment, body weights increased in proportion to the extract concentrations. However, after 3 weeks, the body weight decreased insignificantly. From the above results, Houttuynia cordate $T_{HUNB}$ extract increased metallothionein concentration and decreased the toxicity of cadmium in rats. In vitro the antitoxic activity of aqueous extract of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ on NIH 373 fibroblasts was evaluated by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetra-zoliumbromide) and SRB (sulforhodamine B protein) assays. The light microscopic study was carried out to observe morphological changes of the treated cells. These results were obtained as follows; The concentration of 10$^{-2}$ mg/ml of Houttuynia cordata $T_{HUNB}$ extract was shown significant antitoxic activity The number of NIH 373 fibroblasts were increased and tend to regenerate. These results suggest that Houttuynia cordata THUNB extract retains a potential antitoxic activity.oxic activity.

Exopolysaccharide (CBP) from submerged culture broth of Ganoderma lucidum mycelium and the water soluble (BWS) and water insoluble (BWI) fractions of CBP were prepared by gel filtration. Antitumor activity and effects on proliferation and differenciation of human cancer cells and mouse NIH 3T3 cells were studied. Cytotoxicity test of CBP, BWS and BWI fractions on human cancer cell lines was performed by using sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay. A549 (lung carcinoma), Colo320 DM and HSR (colon carcinoma), and NIH 3T3 cells were used. BWI fraction showed the strongest cytotoxicity (maximum 20% survival) to all human cells tested. However it did not induced apoptosis. Interestingly BWI fraction did not exert cytotoxic effect on NIH 3T3 cells at low concentration of cells ($5{\times}10^4$) but strong toxic effect at high concentration of cells($5{\times}10^5$) which showed transformed morphology. These results suggest that BWI may have cancer cell specific anticancer activity. However, BWI fraction did not effect the amount of pRb and c-myc protein, which implied that BWI fraction did not act at the early stage of signal transduction pathway. CBP fraction induced differenciation of human leukemic cell line, HL-60 cells suggesting the carcinogenesis prevention of normal cell and possible induction of normalization for cancer cell.
