Objectives : The cortex and root of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus (AR), a herbal medicine, have been used for several diseases including cancer in Oriental countries. Recently, we reported that AR has an immune-potentiating action. Oga-Power(OP) was made using extract from AR. For these reasons, we hypothesized that OP can potentiate the immune system in terms of accelerating proliferation rates of immune cells such as thymocytes and splenocytes. Methods : In this experiment, proliferation rates of thymocytes and splenocytes were measured using modified 3-[4,5-dimethy -lthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). No production levels in macrophages isolated from normal mice were measured using Griess method. Results : In our results, treatment with OP accelerated proliferation rates of splenocytes, but did not affect those of thymocytes in vitro. On the other hand, proliferation rates of thymocytes was elevated in vivo. In addition, level of NO production from macrophage separated from abdominal cavity of normal mice was elevated by treatment with OP. Conclusions : In conclusion, OP has immune-potentiating action, by acceleration of splenocyte proliferation and elevation of NO production level from macrophages.

Acanthopanax sessiliflorus SEEM extracts(AS) have been used to treat patient with diseases including cancer in Oriental countries. Recently, AS was known to have anti-cancer and immuno-stimulating activites. For these reasons, we investigated the effects of AS following gamma-ray irradiation on cytotoxicity for solid tumor cell line (S-180) and immune-potentiating ability such as proliferation of thymocytes and splenocytes. Finally we also investigated tumor weight and survival rate in tumor bearing mice. In our results, Treatment with AS suppressed proliferation of solid tumor cells (S-180) effectively. Treatment with AS accelerated thymocyte and splenocyte proliferation in tumor bearing mice. In addition, Treatment with AS reduced tumor weight and prolonged life of tumor bearing mice. In conclusion, we demonstrate that AS following gamma-ray irradiation is useful to treat patients with cancer, and also demonstrate that AS have both direct cytotoxic ability for cancer cells and indirect immune-stimulating action for thymocytes and splenocytes.

오갈피속 수종은 우리나라에 10여 종 있는 것으로 보고되고 있는데(김영진, 등 1997)약용성분이 가장 뛰어난 수종은 가시오갈피(Acanthopanax senticosus (Ruper. et Max.)Harms)로 알려져 있다. 가시오갈피는 높이 2∼3 m의 낙엽활엽관목으로서 강한 햇볕이 드는 더운곳에서는 거의 발견되지 않으며 내음 및 내한성이 강하다.(중략)

"Ga Si O Gal Pi" is one of the Korean crude drugs used mainly to cure arthritis, acute gastritis, and beriberi. With regard to the botanical origin of "Ga Si O Gal Pi", it has been considered to be Acanthopanax species of Araliaceae, but there was no pharmacognostical confirmation on it. To clarify the botanical origin of "Ga Si O Gal Pi", the anatomical characteristics of the branch of Acanthopanax species growing wild in Korea and Japan, A. chiisanensis, A. divaricatus, A. koreanum, A. rufinerve, A. senticosus, A. seoulense, A. sessiliflorus, A. sieboldiaum were studied. As a result, it was clarified that "Ga Si O Gal Pi" was the branch and rarely the bark of branch of Acanthopanax senticosus.

'O Ga Pi Ip' has been used in Korea to cure rheumatism, neuralgia, edema, dematopathy, and impotence. The botanical origin of the crude drug has not been confirmed pharmacognostically. To clarify the botanical origin of 'O Ga Pi Ip', the morphological and anatomical characteristics of the leaves of Acanthopanax species growing in Korea and Japan, A. chi-isanensis Nakai, A. Koreanum Nakai, A. rufinerve Nakai, A. senticosus (Rupr.et Maxim). Harms, A senticosus (Rupr.et Maxim.) for inermis Harms, A. seoulense Nakai, A sessiliflorus (Rupr. et Maxim.) Seem, A. divaricatus Seem, A. sieboldianum Makino were compared. As a result, it was determined that 'O Ga Pi Ip' was the leaf of A. sessiliflorus (Rupr. et Maxim.) Seem, A chiisanensis Nakai, and A. koreanum $Nakai_I$.

Analysis of flavonoid contents in the fruits of Acanthopanax species (A. chiisanensis, A. divaricatus, A. koreanum, A. senticosus, and A. sessiliflorus) was conducted by high performance liquid chromatography. A Discovery$^{(R)}$ C18 ($4.6{\times}250$ mm, 5 ${\mu}m$) column was used with a gradient mobile phase of water and acetonitrile (90 : 10 to 60 : 40 for 60 min) and UV detection was conducted at 350 nm. The contents of rutin, hyperin, quercetin, afzelin, and kaempferol were 0.063~0.540, 0.494~7.480, 0.584~0.704, 0.388~0.567, 0.190~0.471 mg/g, respectively, in the fruits of Acanthopanax species. Total content of flavonoids in the fruits of Acanthopanax species was highest in those of A. chiisanensis. Furthermore, hyperin was the most abundant compound in the fruits of Acanthopanax species. Consequently, our results demonstrate that the fruits of Acanthopanax species containing flavonoids have promising potential as a new income source of agriculture and industry in medicinal natural products, health supplements, and beverages.

본 연구는 천연물로부터 기능성화장품의 소재로 이용할 수 있는 새로운 항산화제를 개발하기 위하여 정선산 오가피나무 추출물의 항산화 효과를 측정하였다. 통상적 항산화력 평가기법인 DPPH 라디칼 소거능 평가 방법은 천연물의 항산화능을 평가하기에 가장 쉬운 방법중에 하나이나 생체내에서 발생되는 특정 라디칼에 대한 항산화능을 평가하기에는 부적합하여 본 연구진은 전사상자성공명법이라는 방법을 이용하여 특정 라디칼에 대한 오가피나무 추출물의 항산화능을 평가하였다. 전자상자성공명법을 이용한 항산화능 평가 결과 오가피나무의 추출물은 유해산소종 및 유해질소종에 대한 매우 우수한 항산화능을 가지고 있음이 밝혀졌으며, 이리한 결과로 보아 오가피나무 추출물은 새로운 항산화제 소재 및 피부내의 산화적 스트레스 방지목적의 기능성 화장품소재로서의 개발가능성이 매우 높음을 알 수 있었다.

오가피는 다양한 생리활성을 가진 약재로 사용되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 오가피 부위별 50% (v/v) 메탄올 추출액의 기능적 특징을 규명하기 위해 생리활성 물질(eleutheroside B, eleutheroside E)의 함량, 추출부위별 총 폴리페놀 함량, 항산화활성, 아질산염소거능 및 항암활성을 알아보았다. 오가피의 생리활성 표준물질인 eleutheroside E는 줄기(556.00 ${\mu}g/g$)>뿌리(430.22 ${\mu}g/g$)>열매 (32.70 ${\mu}g/g$) 순으로 함유되어 있었고 eleutheroside B는 열매 (538.99 ${\mu}g/g$)>줄기(423.60 ${\mu}g/g$)>뿌리(352.30 ${\mu}g/g$) 순으로 많이 함유되어 있었다. 총 폴리페놀은 뿌리(2.97 mg/g) 부위에 가장 많이 함유되어 있었고 잎, 줄기에 각각 0.95, 0.77 mg/g 함유되어 있었다. 전자공여능은 줄기 추출물에서 90.21%로 대조구인 1% (w/v) L-ascorbic acid의 전자공여능(91.75%)과 유사하게 높은 활성을 보였고 뿌리 추출물에서도 85.71%로 높은 활성을 보였다. 발암 전단계를 촉진하며 산성 환경에서 식품 중에 nitrosoamine을 생성하는 아질산염에 대한 오가피의 제거 효과는 추출부위와 관계없이 pH 1.2에서 81.5-93.0%로 높게 나타났다. pH가 높아짐에 따라 아질산염 소거능은 대개 소실되었으나 잎 추출액의 경우 pH 6.0에서도 62.9%의 아질산염 소거능을 유지하고 있었다. 각 부위별 추출액은 모두 정상세포인 DC2.4의 생육 저해 효과를 보이지 않아 세포독성은 없는 것으로 판단되었다. 뿌리 추출물에서는 위암세포주인 SNU-719에 대해 약 23%의 저해 효과가 발견되었다. 따라서 오가피 부위별 50% (v/v) 메탄올 추출액은 높은 항산화 활성과 아질산염 제거효과 등 다양한 기능성을 가진 식품소재로 활용이 가능 할 것으로 판단되었다.

Rooting test of 5 species plants in Acanthopanax genus was carried out to see the comparative effect of growth regulators NAA IBA and IAA. And the results are summarized as in the following compendia; (1) When hard and soft-wood cutting from new shoot of 5 species were taken and dipping treated with growth regulators such as NAA IBA and IAA at varied concentration levels their roofings were mostly more superior to the control that untreated. And also treatment of NAA and IBA among treated substances were more effective than IAA. (2) The effects on the rooting number and rate made a great difference according to species of Acanthopanax genus even if the same regulator was treated. (3) Decreasing effects of rooting by high concentration obstacle (especially at 2,000 rpm) of NAA and IBA in other species except A. sieboldianum were mostly serious. On the other hand, that in case of IAA treatment was not risen in most species except A. sessiliflorus.

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used for the analysis of chiisanoside in Acanthopanax species. A reverse-phase system using a gradient of H$_2$O and acetonitrile as the mobile phase was developed and a wavelength of detection was at 210 nm. The analysis was successfully carried out for 30 min. Chiisanoside was measured in the fruit, stem and root of A. sessiliflorus, A. koreanus, A. divaricatus and A. senticosus.
