HERBAL EXTRACT COMPOSITION HAVING ANTI-CANCER ACTIVITY AND IMMUNE ENHANCING ACTIVITY

摘要

An herbal extract composition having anti-cancer activity and immunity-enhancing activity is provided to extract components showing the various immunity-enhancing and anti-cancer activities and having improved safety from medicinal herbs previously used. A method for preparing the herbal extract composition having anti-cancer activity and immunity-enhancing activity comprises the steps of: (A) pulverizing Acanthopanax sessiliflorus SEEM., Glycyrrhiza uralensis FISCH., Polygonatum officinale All, and chicory, and heating the pulverized medicinal herbs in water at 90-110 deg.C for 3-8 minutes to prepare water-soluble residuum; (B) extracting the water-soluble residuum with methanol to prepare methanol-soluble residuum; (C) preparing ethanol-insoluble residuum from the methanol-soluble residuum; (D) dissolving the ethanol-insoluble residuum in water, adsorbing it to anion exchange resin, eluting it with 0-0.1N salt solution, and eluting it with 0.2-0.4N salt solution; and (F) subjecting the eluting composition from step(D) to gel filtration chromatography.
