This study determined the effects of addition of medicinal herb extracts (Zanthoxylum piperitum extract(TZ), Acanthopanax sessiliflorus(TA), Panax ginseng(TP), Cinnamomum lureitri Nees(TC), Angelica gigantis radix(TAG) and Crataegii fructus extract (TCF) to teriyaki sauce with regard to taste and health benefit. After adding the medicinal herb extracts to teriyaki sauce, moisture content was found to be inversely proportional to the viscosity. The sauce with Panax ginseng extract(TP) had lowest sweetness, but highest salinity. The results showed that the sauce with Korean herb extracts had lower salinity content. In terms of colour value, the sauce with Crataegii fructus extract(TCF) had much higher lightness, redness, and yellowness than sauce prepared with other herb extracts. It had the strongest acidic taste and lowest pH. Sensory evaluation test revealed that the sauce with Anthoxylum piperitum extract(TZ) was the most preferred sauce among all the sauces tested. The degree of brown color of teriyaki sauces was correlated positively with taste preference(r=.570, p<0.01) and overall preference(r=.505, p<0.01).

In order to search for anti -melanin formation agents from Korean medicinal herbs, we selected 21 Korean medicinal herbs, based on a review of Korean traditional medicine books and the recommendations of Korean traditional medical doctors. We tested for inhibition effect of melanin pigmentation of Clone M-3 mouse melanocyte cell lines when we treated the extracts of 21 medicinal herbs in the mouse melanocyte cell lines, respectively. Among 21 medicinal herb extracts, 5 extracts showed a inhibition effect of melanin formation. The sample Phaseolus radiatus L, Cordyceps militaris, Pinellia ternata, Phellinus linteus and Citrus junos Tanaka showed a significantly little formation of melanin pigments compared with control groups. Especially extract of Citrus junos Tanaka was more potent than the others. These results suggest that extract of Korean Citrus junos may represents an excellent candidate for inhibition of melanin pigmentation at in vitro level.

Korean medicinal herb extracts(KMHE) were applied to the preservation of greenhouse produce in order to prove their effectiveness. KMHE showed remarkable antimicrobial effects against Bacillus cereus, Peudomonas syringae, and Corynebacterium xerosis causing the postharvest decay of greenhouse produce. Among KMHE the extracts of Rheum palmatum L. and Coptis chinensis Franch most obviously inhibited the growth of microorganims causing the Postharvest decay of greenhouse produce, which destroyed to undetectable levels when treated with more than 500ppm of KMHE. The activities of KMHE were stable in the wide spectrum of pH and temperature. Direct visualization of microbial cells by using both transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope showed microbial cell membrane the function of which was destroyed by treating with the dilute solutions of KMHE. This change of cellular membrane permeability could be identified in the experiment that O-nitrophenyl-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside(ONPG), the artificial substrate of $\beta$-galactosidase, was hydrolyzed in the presence of KMHE, indicating that the membrane was perturbed by KMHE.

Although aquaculture shrimp production has increased, disease mortality has also increased. Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is an emerging disease that significantly reduces production. In this study, we have investigated the potential of medicinal herbs in enhancing the immune system of shrimp. A mixture of medicinal herb extracts (Han In-jin, Artemisia iwayomogi kitamura and Cham Dang-gwi, Angelicae gigas Nakai) was absorbed into pellets and fed to whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei for 12 weeks. The weight gain, immune activity, and disease resistance effects of the shirmp were examined. The growth performance of shrimp fed the mixture of medicinal herbal extracts was higher than that of the control group. The prophenoloxidase (proPO) activity was found to be significantly higher at 8 weeks in the 0.1% medicinal herb extract fed group. The cumulative mortality when artificially infected with AHPND pathogens commonly decreased in the 8 weeks fed group when compared with the control group. Furthermore, the RPS (relative percentage survival) was improved. This study confirmed that a mixture of medicinal herbal extracts has a positive effect on growth performance, innate immunity and disease resistance in shrimp. The optimum concentration of the medicinal herb extract for shrimp feed was 0.1% .

Objectives: This study was performed to screen target-specific inhibitors of ${\beta}$-catenin/TCF signaling whose functional activation plays an important role in early events in carcinogenesis. Methods: To investigate the activation or suppression of ${\beta}$-catenin/TCF transcription, we established a transiently transfected cell line with a constitutively active ${\beta}$-catenin mutant gene whose product is not degraded. This cell line was also co-transfected with luciferase reporter gene constructs containing either an optimized (TOPflash) or mutant (FOPflash) TCF-binding element. We investigated cytotoxic effects using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium salt (MTS) assay. To find effective inhibitors of ${\beta}$-catenin/TCF signaling from medicinal herbs, the crude extracts of 99 types of medicinal herbs were screened using a luciferase assay system in HEK-293 and SH-SY5y cells. Results: At a concentration of $50{\mu}g$/ml, extracts of Angelica koreanae radix, Cannabis sativa semen, Ephedrae intermedia Schrenk radix, and Vitis rotundifolia fruit showed the following inhibitory effects on ${\beta}$-catenin/TCF signaling: $40{\pm}5.6%$, $23{\pm}6.1%$, $8{\pm}5.1%$, and $22{\pm}9.8%$ in ${\beta}$-catenin-activated HEK-293 cells and $9{\pm}4.7%$, $39{\pm}8.1%$, $39{\pm}6.4%$, and $42{\pm}10.1%$ in ${\beta}$-catenin-activated SH-SY5y cells, respectively. Crude extracts of E. radix were isolated by silica gel column chromatography, and two non-polar fractions of these extracts showed inhibitory effects on ${\beta}$-catenin/TCF signaling. Conclusions: In this study, we established a transiently transfected cell line as a screening system and found that various medicinal herb extracts had inhibitory effects on ${\beta}$signaling.

To search for novel cancer preventive agents, we assessed the quinone reductase (QR)-inducing activities of medicinal herb extracts in cultured murine hepatoma cells (hepalclc7 cells). Among 216 herb extracts tested in this study, 8 kinds of herbal extracts were found to induce QR activity in hepalclc7 cells by more than 2-fold when used at the concentration of 25 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. The methanol extracts of Aster koraiensis NK and Pulsatilla koreana Nakai induced QR by 252 and 223 % , respectively, at the concentration of 25 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$. Most of the herbal extracts with QR inducing-activity increased the enzyme activity in a typical dose-dependent manner. The QR activity in BP$^{r}$ cl cells was induced move than 50 % by the extracts of Pulsatilla koreana Nakai, Inula helenium, Physalis alkekengi var, francheti (Masters) Makino, Chrysanthemum zawadskii var. latilobum Kitamuva, Auemisia keiskeana Miquel, Chfsanthemum boreale Makino. In conclusion, hlsatilla koreana Nakai, Aster koraiensis N.K, and Chfsanthemum zawadskii var. iatilobum Kitamura, which showed relatively high QR induction, merit further animal study to evaluate their potential as cancer preventive agents.
