25:T4b0,In an attempt to understand the possible neural mechanism mediating the effects of a static magnetic field (SMF), nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and excitability index (EI), measured as the ratio of the amplitude of the submaximally evoked compound muscle action potential during or after magnetic exposure to that before exposure from the same intensity of stimulation of the motor nerve, were studied on ten normal volunteers (aged 17 to 39), when the nerve was exposed to an SMF of 1 tesla (T) for 15 seconds. NCV and EI were measured before, during (5, 10, and 15 sec) and three minutes after magnetic exposure. Both NCV and EI were measured on median nerve in all ten subjects, the peroneal nerve in seven subjects, while the ulnar nerve was measured for only EI in eight subjects. There was no significant change in NCV over the segment exposed to the magnetic field. However, EI was significantly increased during the magnetic exposure in all three nerves. The effects were observed as early as five seconds after exposure and disappeared by three minutes after exposure. It is concluded that the excitability of the motor nerve is increased when it is exposed to an SMF with a density of 1T.26:T479,Seaweed fulvescens (SF) is a green alga rich in chlorophyll with unique flavor and taste. It is also called Maesaengi which has antioxidant and other physiological activities. In the present study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of SF in a mouse model of Dermatophagoides farinae body-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) and in tumor necrosis factor-α and interferon-γ-stimulated HaCaT keratinocytes. SF treatment (200 mg/mouse) inhibited the development of AD symptoms, compared to that in the control group, as evidenced from the improved dorsal skin lesion, reduced thickness and infiltration of inflammatory cells and smaller lymph nodes, and reduced levels of proinflammatory cytokines. In HaCaT keratinocytes, SF (10, 25, and 50 μg/mL) suppressed the production of proinflammatory cytokines in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, SF reduced the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1, which is one of the major signaling molecules involved in cellular inflammation. These results suggested that SF could be a potential therapeutic alternative for the treatment of AD.27:T51d,Abstract Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report the effect of Hwangryunhaedok-tang Pharmacopuncture Therapy on Seborrheic Dermatitis Methods : An author treated distillation of Hwangryunhaedok-tang Pharm acopuncture(0.8cc) on both LI20(Yenoghyang), SI18(Gwollyo), ST7(Hagwan) of patient’s spots on the face suitable for acupuncture and examined variation of two Seborrheic Dermatitis cases Results : The Hwangryunhaedok-tang Pharmacopuncture Therapy was effect ive on amelioration of symptoms like flare, pricking and itching sense in Seborrheic Dermatitis Conclusions : The above result indicate that Hwangryunhaedok-tang Pharmaco puncture Therapy has an effect on Seborrheic Dermatitis, and an author consider that continuou s clinical study will be needed in other Pharmacopuncture and Korean medical treatmentKey words : Seborrheic Dermatitis; Hwangryunhaedok-tang; Pharmacopuncture T herapy ⓒ 2012 the Korean Oriental Medical Ophthalmology & Otolaryngolo gy & Dermatology Society.

In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of S. tuberosum L. cv JY in a mouse model of Dermatophagoides farinae body (Dfb)-induced atopic dermatitis (AD). The ethanol extract of the peel of JY (EPJ) ameliorated Dfb-induced dermatitis severity, serum levels of immunoglobulin E (I
