Objectives : Atractylodes chinensis(AC) and Phellodendron amurense Ruprecht(PAR) have been used as anti-inflammatory medicines. However, the effects of AC, PAR and Yimyosan on AP were not examined. To prove this, We decocted the dried prescription of AC and PAR with boiling distilled water and freeze-dried to be powdered. AC, PAR and Yimyosan was administrated intraperitoneally. Methods : 1h after administration, cerulein was injected hourly six times. 6hrs after last cerulein injection, mice were sacrificed, then the pancreas and blood were harvested. Serum amylase and lipase, neutrophil infiltration, pancreatic cytokines were used as the parameter of severity of AP. Results : As a result of assessment the parameters of AP, AC alone treatment did not inhibit the severity of AP, however PAR treatment inhibited the severity of AP significantly. Yimyosan also showed the protective effects against AP at lower doses, however AC alone plus PAR alone extract did not show the protective effects significantly. Conclusions : In conclusion, PAR extract has a protective effects on AP, and the effects could be increased by co-treatment with AC.
