Abstract

Objective: To demonstrate of regulatory effect of atopic allergic regulation by Chungsangbangpoong-Tang(CBT), This experiment was studied.
Methods: The author investigated a possible effect of CBT on cytokines production using human T cell line (MOLT-4) or human mast cell line (HMC-1). In addition, the author investigated whether CBT has inhitory effects on compound 48/80- induced histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMC) and compound 48/80-induced ear swelling in ICR mice.
Results: CBT (0.01 mg/ml)-containing medium in stimulated culture supernatants significantly increased IL-2 secretion compared with untreated MOLT-4, whereas CBT (0.01-1.0 mg/ml)-containing medium in stimulated culture supernatants significantly decreased IL-4 secretion compared with untreated MOLT-4. Significant reduced levels of IL -6 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ were observed in the HMC-l with CBT (P<0.05). CBT did not inhibit the histamine release from the RPMC but inhibit ear swelling response.
Conclusion: These results suggest that CBT contributes to the treatment of atopic allergic reactions, such as atopic dermatitis and that its action may be due to regulation of cytokine production.
