Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate anti-inflammatory effects of Hyulbuchukeotanggamibang water extract (HBCT). Methods: In the study of anti-inflammatory effects, HBCT was investigated using cultured cells and a murine models. As for the parameters of inflammation, levels of several inflammatory cytokines and chemical mediators which are known to be related to inflammation were determined in mouse lung fibroblast cells (mLFCs) and RAW264.7 cells. Results: Prior to the experiment, we investigated the cytotoxicity of HBCT. HBCT showed a safety in cytotoxicity on mLFCs. In experiment of anti-inflammatory effect, HBCT effected scavenging activity on DPPH free radical, superoxide dismutase and superoxide anion radical. HBCT inhibited , IL-6, , COX-2 and NOS-II mRNA expression in a concentration-dependent manner in RAW264.7 cell line, and inhibited significantly , IL-6, production at in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusion: These results suggest that HBCT can be used for treating diverse female diseases caused by inflammation such as endometriosis, pelvic pain, cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and pelvic tuberculosis and so forth
