The purpose of this study was to analyzed the effects of step aerobics on the health-related fitness in the middle school girl’s Sasang Constitution Classification. The Sasang Constitution was classified by QSCCII and Sasang Pattern Identification Questionnaire and then confirmed by expert of this field, who was oriental medical doctor, attending to Dongeui oriental medical center in Busan. The subjects were Soyang-in 10, Soeum-in 10, Taeum-in 10, respectively, total 30 middle school girls. Step Aerobics program performed 45 min/day, 3 times/week, during 12 weeks. The result was as follows : 1. The height was increased significantly than before exercise in Soeum-in. The body weights and chest circumference were increased than that of the pre-test values in the girl with Soyang-in, Soeum-in, and Taeeum-in, respectively but there was lettle significance. 2. The sit-ups, sit and reach test’s values were significantly improved than pre test, and %fat was decreased significantly in Soeum-in and Taeum-in. Otherwise, BMI and LBM were slightly increased than pre-exercise but there was no significance.

As an attempt to search for antiallergic and antiinflammatory activities, we examined he potency of Rubus coreanus water extract (RCWE). The effect of RCWE on systemic anaphylactic shock and vascular permeability was investigated. Results are 1) compound 48/40-induced mortality rate in mice were significantly inhibited by pretreatment of RCWE and compound 48/40-induced mean death time in mice were delayed by pretreatment of RCWE, 2) compound 48/40-induced mesenteric mast cell degranulation in mice were significantly inhibited by pretreatment of RCWE, 3) the increase of vascular permeability induced by compound 48/80 or anti-DNP IgE in rat was significantly inhibited by pretreatment of RCWE. These results suggest that RCWE contains substances with an activity to inhibit the systemic anaphylaxis and vascular permeability.

In the rat brain stem, neurons innervating the sublingual and submandibular gland were investigated by means of cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) and pseudorabies virus (PRV). Injection of CTB into the sublingual gland and PRV into the submandibular gland, neural tracer labeled neurons showed similar positions in central nervous system with PRV into the sublingual gland and CTB into the submandibular gland. CTB labeled-neurons were observed in superior salivatory nucleus, PRV labeled-neurons in superior salivatory nucleus and reticular nucleus. CTB was more fine tracer than PRV for observation of superior salivatory nucleus. The size of CTB labeled-neurons is larger in submandibular gland than in sublingual gland. The size of PRV labeled-neurons were nearly the same after injection to submandibular or sublingual gland. No neurons were labeled together with CTB and PRV. Neurons innervating sublingual and submandibular gland were localized independently in superior salivatory nucleus. These results provided a neuroanatomical data of the neurons innervating the sublingual and submandibular gland in the superior salivatory nucleus.
