다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objective & Methods : To study the effects of anti-cancer, anti-metastasis and immune response improvement of herbal-acupuncture with Eclipta prostrata diffusae herba infusion solution(ELP-HAS), we injected ELP-HAS into Chung-wan(CV12) of C57BL/6 mice implanted intravenously with B16-F10 melanoma. We have reached the following conclusion through the effect on the percentage of $CD25^+/CD4^+$, $CD8^+/CD3e^+$, $CD69^+/B220^+$, $NK1.1^+/CD3e^+$cells in mouse PBMCs, the effect on the pulmonary colony formation number, and the effect on MST(Median Survival Time) and ILS(Increase of Life Span) of C57BL/6 mice implanted intravenously with B16-F10 melanoma. Results : The results were obtained as follows : 1. In the experiment groups treated with ELP(Ecliptae Herba) Herbal acupuncture, the spleen cell proliferation in BALB/c mouse was significantly increased compared with control group. 2. In the experiment groups treated with ELP(Ecliptae Herba) Herbal acupuncture, the percentage of $CD25^+/CD4^+$, $CD8^+/CD3e^+$, $CD69^+/B220^+$, $NK1.1^+/CD3e^+$cells in C57BL/6 mouse PBMCs was increased compared with control group. 3. In the experiment groups treated with ELP(Ecliptae Herba) Herbal acupuncture, the pulmonary colony formation number of C57BL/6 mice implanted intravenously with B16-F10 melanoma was decreased significantly compared with control group. 4. In the experiment groups treated with ELP(Ecliptae Herba) Herbal acupuncture, MST(Median Survival Time) and ILS(Increase of Life Span) of C57BL/6 mice implanted intravenously with B16-F10 melanoma were increased significantly compared with control group. Conclusions : ELP Herbal acupuncture injection into Chung-wan(CV12) of C57BL/6 mice is considered to be effective in anti-cancer, anti-metastasis and immune response improvement.
