The purpose of this study was to see the effect of anti-inflammatory and analgesic action of the glucosamine hydrochloride(GA-HCl) or taurine. Male Sprague-Dawley rats(100~250g) and ICR mice(20~30g) were used. Experimental groups were divided into seven groups, one control group given as saline and six groups given as oral administration of GA-HCl or taurine; GA-HCl 250§·/§¸, b.w group, taurine 250§·/§¸, b.w group, GA-HCl 250§·/§¸, b.w+taurine 250§·/§¸, b.w group, GA-HCl 500§·/§¸, b.w group, taurine 500§·/§¸, b.w group, GA-HCl 500§·/§¸, b.w+taurine 500§·/§¸, b.w group. Carrageenan induced edema test were shown to be significantly inhibited in the GA-HCl 250§·/§¸ group and taurine 250§·/§¸ group compared to the control group, but the GA-HCl 500§·/§¸+taurine 500§·/§¸ group were significantly inhibited than the control group. Capillary permeability test were shown to be significantly inhibited in the taurine 500§·/§¸ group, but the GA-HCl 500§·/§¸+taurine 500§·/§¸ group were significantly inhibited than the control group. Leucocyte emigration test were shown to be significantly inhibited in the GA-HCl 250§·/§¸+taurine 250§·/§¸ group and GA-HCl 500§·/§¸+taurine 500§·/§¸ group compared to the control group. Acetic acid, Phenyl-p-benzoquinone writhing syndrome were shown to be significantly inhibited in the GA-HCl 500§·/§¸+taurine 500§·/§¸ group compared to the control group. Inhibitory action against COX-1 and COX-2 were not significantly inhibited in the experimental group. These results suggest that the combined administration of the GA-HCl and taurine have potential action in anti-inflammatory and analgesic action.
