1 감초 (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, GLU) 가천식모델생쥐의 BALF 내면역세포및 Cytokine 에미치는효과 Effects of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch on Immunocyte and Cytokine Production in Asthma Model Mouse Young-Joo Han, Yang-Chun Park Department of Internal Medicine College of Oriental Medicine, Daejeon University, Daejeon, Korea Objective : The aim is to identify the effects of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch on immunocyte and cytokine production in asthmatic laboratory mice. This experiment was designed to investigate the antiallergic and antiinflamatary the effects of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch on asthma. Materials and Methods : We measured the eosinophil, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IFN-, CD4, CD8, CD69, CCR3, CD11b, Gr-1 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of ovalbumin induced asthmatic mice. Results : Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch increased the proliferation of eosinophils, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IgE, granulocyte, CCR3, CD4, IgE, CD69. Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch increased the proliferation of IFN-. Conclusion : Results suggest that Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch extract is useful in treatment and prevention allergic asthma. Key Words: Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, cytokine, antiallergy, :, (Tel , Fax : , omdpyc@dju.ac.kr), 1-3.,,,,,,,
