인삼주정추출액 투여에 의하여 마우스 악하선 조직의 DNA 합성능이 어떤 영향을 받는지를 알기 위하여 30마리의 마우스 (몸 무게 18 ~ 20 gm) 수컷을 15마리씩 두 무리로 나누어 한 무리에는 생리적 식염수를 다른 무리에는 인삼주정추출액(인삼주정추출물 4mg 을 생리적 식염수 1ml 속에 용해시켜 만든 용액)을 마우스의 몸 무게 10gm에 대하여 0.05ml씩 5일 동안 주사한 후 [<sup>3</sup>H]-thymidine을 복강 속에 주사하고 1, 10 및 24시간 만에 도살하여 자기방사법을 이용하여 악하선의 합성능을 비교 관찰한 바 인삼주정추출액을 투여받은 마우스의 악하선 조직의 표지 세포수는 식염수만을 투여받은 마우스의 그것에 비하여 적었다. 그러므로 인삼주정추출액은 마우스의 악하선 조직 DNA 합성능을 어느 정도 억압한다고 믿어진다.
It was planned to evaluate the influence of Panax Ginseng upon DNA synthesis of submandibular gland in mice by observing incorporation of [<sup>3</sup>H] thymidine into the tissue cells. Thirty male mice (body weight: 18 ~ 20 g) were divided equally into two groups. One group received every day (subcutaneously) 0. 05 ml/10 g body weight of ginseng extract(4 mg of ginseng alcohol extract in 1ml of saline), while !he other group received the same amount of saline, for 5 days. On the 5th experimental day, all animals received 1 μCi/g body weight of [<sup>3</sup>H] thymidine intraperitoneally 2 hours after the last medication. Five animals, at a time, of each group were sacrificed 1, 10, and 24 hours after [<sup>3</sup>H] thymidine administration, and the radioactivity of cells in their mandibular gland was measured autoradiographically in terms of the % number of radioactive cells in 1,000 tell counts (Radioactive Index, R.I.). It was found that the radioactive indices of mice that received ginseng were lower than the corresponding values of mice that received saline. The inference from the above result was that the ginseng suppressed DNA synthesis of cells in the mandibular gland.
