| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Kampo formulations comprise a number of crude natural drugs/herbs as constituents. The crude drugs/herbs have been traditionally classified by their traditional classifications or efficacies in Kampo medicines; however, it has been difficult to establish the scientific link between experimental evidence and traditional classifications in Kampo medicine.
Consideringour results supported by the grant, the traditional categories of crude drugs/herbs in Kampo medicine may be positively associated with the effects on intracellular signaling using reporter assay unless there are significant differences in their botanical origin and active constituents. Alternatively, our results imply that the crude drugs/herbs belonging to the same category in Kampo medicine share a common effect on intracellular signaling activity in vitro.
