  • Antithrombotic and fibrinolytic activity of natto was evaluated on platelet aggregation in vitro and in vivo. Natto showed inhibitory effects on platelet aggregation induced by adenosine 5’diphosphate (ADP) and collagen. Orally administered natto also showed fibrinolytic activity in hypercholesterolemia rats. Normal levels of natto, when administered for four weeks, shortened euglobulin clot lysis time (ECLT) and prolonged partial thromboplastin time (PATT) significantly compared to non-treated group. In addition, the natto treatment decreased total cholesterol in serum. These results showed that intake of normal levels of natto can elicit antithrombotic and fibrinolytic effects, suggesting its consumption may improve blood circulation.

  • Green tea catechins(GTC) were studied for its inhibitory effect on human platelet aggregation in vitro, for its antithrombotic effect in mice in viro, and bleeding and clotting time in rats. The catechins were isolated and purified from green tea, which were composed of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate, (-)-epigallocatechin, (-)epicatechin gallate and (-)-epicatechin, GTC produced a potent inhibition of human platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent manner against the stimulants such as ADP, collagen, epinephrine and ristocetin n vitro. GTC also prevented death due to the formation of pulmonary thrombosis by platelet aggregates in mice in a dose-de-pendent manner in viro. GTC increased the bleeding time, whole blood clotting time and plasma clotting time in rats, too. These results suggest that GTC is a promising antithrombotic agent.

  • We previously reported that Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ showed high fibrinolytic activity and revealed antithrombotic effect in rat blood plasma based on its ability to suppress collagen-induced platelet aggregation. This research was carried out to verify the clot lysing activity and blood flow enhancing effects of Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ via monitoring and comparing the antithrombotic effects in rat artery between oral administration of Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ and maltodextrin. SD rats were fed with 1.11 mg/kg of Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ for 4 weeks. The effect on arterial thrombosis was then evaluated using an antithrombotic model after induction by $FeCl_3$. Detected fibrinolytic activity was proportional to the content of Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ and statistical extents of the antithrombotic activity was enhanced strongly twice rather than control group. The PT and the aPTT, however, showed only a small difference between two groups. The results suggest that Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ can effectively treat thromboembolism and enhance blood flow, and that Ultra nattokinase$^{(R)}$ can also prevent venous occlusion by aiding clot lysis.

  • The possibility of Galla Rhois(GR) water extract as an antithrombotic agent was investigated. The effect of GR on platelet aggregation in human platelet-rich plasma(PRP) induced by collagen and ADP in vitro and coagulation parameters in a pathological model induced by endotoxin and hydrocortisone acetate(HA) in vivo were examined. In platelet aggregation assay, GR extract significantly inhibited platelet aggregation induced by collagen and ADP in a dose-dependent manner. GR extract significantly increased the number of platelet and shortened prothrombin time(PT) and activated thromboplastin time(APTT) as compared with the control in pathological model induced by endotoxin and HA. Also, GR extract significantly increased fibrinogen level as compared with the control in a pathological model induced HA. These results suggest that GR may be a promising antithrombotic agent.

  • Background: Red ginseng (RG) extract, especially ginsenoside Rg1 and Rb1 fractions has been reported to have antithrombotic activities. However, gastric instability and low intestinal permeability are considered to be obstacles to its oral administration. We hypothesized that stability, permeability, and activities of RG might be improved by encapsulation within nanoparticles (NPs) prepared with antithrombotic coating materials. Methods: RG-loaded chitosan (CS) NPs (PF-NPs) were prepared by complex ionic gelation with the antithrombotic wall materials, polyglutamic acid (PGA), and fucoidan (Fu). The concentrations of PGA (mg/mL, X1) and Fu (mg/mL, X2) were optimized for the smallest particle size by response surface methodology. Antithrombotic activities of RG and PF-NPs were analyzed using ex vivo and in vivo antiplatelet activities, in vivo carrageenan-induced mouse tail, and arteriovenous shunt rat thrombosis models. Results: In accordance with a quadratic regression model, the smallest PF-NPs (286 ± 36.6 nm) were fabricated at 0.628 mg/mL PGA and 0.081 mg/mL Fu. The inhibitory activities of RG on ex vivo and in vivo platelet aggregation and thrombosis in in vivo arteriovenous shunt significantly (p < 0.05) increased to approximately 66.82%, 35.42%, and 38.95%, respectively, by encapsulation within PF-NPs. For an in vivo carrageenan-induced mouse tail thrombosis model, though RG had a weaker inhibitory effect, PF-NPs reduced thrombus significantly due to the presence of PGA and Fu. Conclusion: PF-NPs contributed to improve the activities of RG not only by nanoencapsulation but also by antithrombotic coating materials. Therefore, PG-NPs can be suggested as an efficient delivery system for oral administration of RG.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare with the result of experimental study about antithrombotic effect by reviewing recent oriental medicine journals that have been published since 2001' in Korea. Methods: Articles on antithrombotic effect that have been published from 2001' to 2013' in oriental medicine journals registered National Research Foundation of Korea were searched. After that, 12 articles using same 'thrombosis condition model' were selected and reviewed. Results: The results were as follows. 1. If there is no limit drug concentrations, platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in hyulbuchukeo-tanggamibang (HBCT) was the largest aggregation inhibitory effect and platelet aggregation induced by epinephrine in Saegeum-san (SGS), Jogan-tanggagambang (JGTG), hyulbuchukeo-tanggamibang (HBCT) had a large inhibitory effect on aggregation. 2. At the lowest concentration, Mokdan-san (MDS) of the inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by ADP and Hyunhosaik-san (HHS) of the inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by epinephrine were effective. 3. Pulmonary embolism induced by collagen and epinephrine in Neungasojeok-tang (NSJT) has the highest antithrombotic effect. 4. Pathological conditions of extravasated blood by dextran, Jogan-tanggagambang (JGTG) has the highest inhibitory effect on decrease in platelet numbers. Compared to the rest of the experimental drug, Saegeum-san (SGS), Heanggyonghonghwa-tang (HGTHHT), Wusl-san (WSS), Mokdan-san (MDS) showed significant inhibitory effect on the prothrombin time (PT) increases. Honghwadanggui-san (HDS), Saegeum-san (SGS) showed significant inhibitory effect on increase in activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and Jogan-tanggagambang (JGTG), Heanggyonghonghwa-tang (HGTHHT) showed significant inhibitory effect on decrease in fibrinogen. Conclusions: This result will provide useful information for the prescriptions of antithrombotic medicine in the field of Oriental medicine. We will have to carry out further studies that will compare each herb used in the diseases caused by extravasated blood.

  • This study was undertaken to elucidate the effect of DHA rich fish oil(DHA rich oil) added to different dietary fats on thrombosis and lipid peroxidation. Rats were fed perilla oil, sesame oil and beef tallow with or without DHA rich oil for 12 weeks. Bleeding time was the longest in Perilla oil groups with or without DHA rich oil. The productions of thromboxane B2(TX B2) and 6-keto Prostaglandin F1$\alpha$(6-keto PG F1$\alpha$) were the highest in Esame oil group without DHA rich oil. Bleeding time tended to be extened and group showed the most antithrombotic effect among three oil groups when DHA rich oil added. The antithrombotic effect by DHA rich oil addition seemed to be resulted from the increase of dietary n-3 fatty acid rather than DHA. And there was not the difference in antithrombotic effect between DHA and $\alpha$-linolinic acid. The level of TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) in plasma and liver, and the activities of lipid peroxide metabolizing enzymes(catalase, superoxide dismutase and gluthathion peroxidase) in erythrocyte and liver were not affected by the dietry fat type and DHA rich oil addition, except that activity of hepatic catalase was increased by DHA rich oil addition. Therefore it revealed the DHA level added in this study seldom affected lipid peroxidation. However, it dose not conclude that DHA level of this study make low production of lipid peroxide because the peroid of our study was short.

  • Cordyceps is a genus of ascomycete fungi and is well known as one of the important medical fungi in Chinese, Korea, and other Asian countries, because of its various beneficial effects on human health. The pharmacological activities of Cordyceps extract are mainly focused on anti-cancer, anti-metastatic, and immune modulating effects. In the present study, we investigated whether the antiplatelet effect of ethanol extract of cultured Cordyceps militaris (CMEE) with FeCl3-induced arterial thrombosis model. We observed that CMEE exhibited a significant inhibitory effect against ADP and collagen-induced platelet aggregation. However, there were no significant differences in prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). These results suggest that antithrombotic activity of CMEE is related to antiplatelet effect rather than anticoagulation effect, and CMEE may be a positive effect on improving blood circulation against vessel injury and occlusion.

  • Objectives:Spring water is widely known to relax muscles by promoting blood circulation. This study was conducted to analyze theantithrombotic effect of naturally carbonated hot spring water (NCHW) to assess its influence on blood circulation. Methods:Atopic dermatitis was induced in the skin of the mice used in this experiment. NCHW was applied, and the antithrombotic effect was assessed and compared with that of other interventions. The positive control group was treated orally with aspirin. Results:After 3 weeks of exposure to NCHW, the experimental groupshowed a significant antithrombotic effect. NCHW also produced inhibitory responses to both collagen- and ADP-induced platelet aggregation, whereas the group given aspirin reacted only to collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Conclusions:The experiment demonstrated the intrinsic antithrombotic effects of NCHW compared with those of artificially carbonated water, tap water, and aspirin. This result suggests the possibility that NCHW can be used as a supportive and alternative treatment for vascular diseases.
