현재 대황은 지표성분의 규격이 한국, 일본과 중국이 다르고, 유통시장에서 대황과 종대황이 혼재되어 있으며 다양한 기원식물이 혼재되어 수입되고 있다. 따라서 대황의 효능을 현대 약리학적으로 해석하는 과정을 통해 약재의 표준화, 과학화 및 위염에 대한 지표성분 검색에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료되어 Rheum tanguticum(당고특대황)과 그 비교생약으로 Rumex cripus(양제근), Rheum officinale(약용대황), Rheum palmatum(장엽대황) 및 Rheum undulatum(종대황)의 물 및 70% 에탄올 추출물을 비교하였다. 그 결과, 흰 쥐를 이용한 위염 모델에서 양제근 70% 에탄올 추출물(73.2%)와 종대황 물 추출물(71%)이 각각 70% 이상으로 우수한 위손상 억제활성을 보여주었지만, 당고특대황의 70% 에탄올 추출물 투여시 91.8%로 실험군 중 가장 우수한 위염 억제 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 공격인자로써의 산을 중화시킬 수 있는 능력을 알아보기 위한 제산력 시험법으로는 당고특대황 물 추출물과 70% 에탄올 추출물이 각각 약 14.2%, 약 15.8%로 억제함을 알 수 있었다. 이 결과로 보아 양성대조군으로 사용한 hydrotalcite(49.9%)보다는 제산작용이 약하였지만 과량 혹은 장기간 복용하면 효과가 있을 것으로 생각된다. 소화성궤양, 위암 및 변연부 B세포 림프종 발생에 있어 중요한 원인 인자로 밝혀졌고, 기능성 소화불량증, 위의 과형성 용종, 철결핍성 빈혈 등 기타 질환과의 연관성들이 제시되고 있는 H. pylori에 대한 colonization 억제 활성을 확인한 결과 당고특대황의 70% 에탄올 추출물 $100{\mu}g/mL$에서 H. pylori에 대한 항균작용(+)을 확인할 수 있었다. DPPH 용액을 이용하여 free radical의 소거능을 $IC_{50}$으로 나타낸 결과, 당고특대황은 물 및 70% 에탄올 추출물에서 $IC_{50}$이 $25.9{\mu}g/mL$, $5.8{\mu}g/mL$로 양성대조군으로 사용한 L-ascorbic acid ($IC_{50}=6.5{\mu}g/mL$)와 유사한 free radical 소거능을 나타내었다. 이 결과로 당고특대황의 70% 에탄올 추출물이 휜 쥐 위염모델의 위손상을 가장 우수하게 억제하였으며 항산화 활성 또한 가장 우수한 것으로 확인되었다. 당고특대황의 성분인 chysophanol, chrysophanol-8-O-glc, desoxyrhaponticin desoxyrhapontigenin, emodin, isorhaponticin, 2-methoxy-4-hydroxyanthraquinone-5-O-glc, physcion, piracetannol-3'-O-glc, resveratrol, rhaponticin 및 rhapontigenin을 이용하여 실험한 결과로는 효성분들 중 physcion $100{\mu}M$과 rhaponticin $50{\mu}M$ 및 $100{\mu}M$에서는 실험에 사용한 성분 들 중 비교적 우수한 colonization 억제작용(+)을 나타내었고, DPPH radical 소거 활성은 isorhaponticin, piracetannol-3'-O-glc, resveratrol 및 rhaponticin에서 $IC_{50}$이 각각 $129.5{\mu}M$, $94.1{\mu}M$ $80.1{\mu}M$ 및 $104.6{\mu}M$로 확인되었다. 실험결과를 토대로 항위염 효과가 있는 우수한 약용식물로써 천연물 의약품개발 가능성을 확인하였고 나아가 한약재의 효능을 과학적으로 검증하고 한약재 표준화에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Three species of genus Polygonum, namely P. cuspidatum, P. sachalinense and P. ellipticum are distributed in Korea. Polygonum ellipticum Migo is a perennial herb in Polygonaceous plants. The root of the plant (Polygoni Rhizoma, 'Ho-jang') have been used as laxative, diuretic and for the treatment suppurative dermatitis in the oriental medicine. As the part of the study for the comparison of the three species in their components, the authors attempted to isolate the anthraquinones and stilbene derivative from the rhizome of P. ellipticum. The methanolic extract of dried rhizome of this plant was fractionated into ether soluble and insoluble fraction and each fraction was applied to column chromatography to isolate above mentioned components. Anthraquinone derivatives were isolated first; comp. I, mp $204{\sim}205^{\circ}$ (physcion), comp. II, mp $254{\sim}255^{\circ}$ (emodin), comp. IV, mp $191{\sim}192^{\circ}$ $(emodin-8-O-{\beta}-D-glucoside)$ and comp. III, mp $280{\sim}282^{\circ}$ $({\beta}-sitosterol-glucoside)$. They were identified by chemical properties and UV, IR and NMR spectra and by the direct comparison with authentic samples. Stilbene derivative was isolated secondly; comp. V, mp $255{\sim}256^{\circ}$ which was reported to possess antibacterial and antifungal activities.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of methanol extract of Reynoutria sachalinensis flower using DPPH assay has led to the isolation of three anthraquinones and three flavonoids. Their structures were identified as emodin (1), emodin-8-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (2), physcion-8-O-$\beta$-D­glucopyranoside (3), quercetin-3-O-$\alpha$-L-arabinofuranoside (4), quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-galactopyra­noside (5), and quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucuronopyranoside (6) by comparing their physicochemical and spectral data with those published in literatures. All isolated compounds were evaluated for antioxidant activities with free radical 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging, superoxide radical scavenging and $Cu^{2+}$-mediated low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation assay. The results demonstrated that three flavonoids, 4, 5, and 6 had remarkable antioxidant activities with the $IC_{50}$ values of 64.3, 54.7, and 46.2${\mu}M$ (DPPH scavenging), the $IC_{50}$ values of 6.0, 6.7, and $4.4{\mu}M$ (superoxide radical scavenging) and the $IC_{50}$ values of 3.8, 3.2, and 5.4${\mu}M$ against LDL oxidation, respectively.

Anti-Helicobacter pylori activity guided fractionation led to the isolation of five anthraquinones, two stilbenes and one naphthoquinone from the EtOAc fraction of Polygonum cuspidatum, using silica gel column chromatography, Sephadex-LH20, MPLC and recrystallization. The chemical structures were identified to be physcion (1), emodin (2), anthraglycoside B (3), trans-resveratrol (4), anthraglycoside A (5), polydatin (6), 2-methoxy-6-acetyl-7-methyljuglone (7) and citreorosein (8) by UV, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and mass spectrometry. Anti-Helicobacter pylori activity including MIC values of each compound was evaluated. All of the isolates exhibited anti-H. pylori activity of which MIC values were lower than that of a positive control, quercetin. Compounds 2 and 7 showed potent growth inhibitory activity. Especially, a naphthoquinone, compound 7 displayed most potent antibacterial activity with $MIC_{50}$ value of $0.30{\mu}M$ and $MIC_{90}$ value of $0.39{\mu}M$. Although anti-H. pylori activity of this plant was previously reported, this is the first report on that of compounds isolated from this species. From these findings, P. cuspidatum roots or its isolates may be useful for H. pylori infection and further study is needed to elucidate mechanism of action.

Rhubarb (Rhei Rhizoma) has been used for the various clinical purposes such as purgative, stomach protective and pain relief for a long time. However, rhubarb in current market has a problem of quality control under which many of rhubarb fail to meet the standard specified in Korean Pharmacopoeia. This study was carried out to validate the method for the evaluation of the quality of five rhubarbs and Rumex species; Rheum palmatum, R. officinale, R. tanguticum, R. franzenbachii, R. undulatum, and Rumex species. The content of sennoside A with five anthraquinones (aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin, chrysophanol and physcion) in five rhubarbs and one Rumex has been performed by using HPLC quantitation analysis. In results, only four samples in Palmata sect. were qualified with sennoside A and those samples were R. officinale and R. tanguticum. Samples of R. palmatum did not meet the standard contents of sennoside A. The contents of anthraquinones in Palmata sect. were two times larger than those in Rhapontica sect. Moreover the content variations of anthraquinones were smaller than those of sennoside A. Thus, anthraquinones can be the key characterizing molecules to control quality of rhubarb.
