     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to a novel use of an Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge extract and the like, and more particularly, a composition for preventing or treating colitis, including an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, a fraction thereof or a compound isolated therefrom. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Colitis is a disease with an inflammation of the colon, occurs due to various causes, has major symptoms, such as, tenesmus, abdominal distension, hypogastric pain, and diarrhea, and in some cases, may exhibit mucous stool, pus faces, or bloody excreta. Colitis may be largely classified into infectious colitis and non-infectious colitis according to causes or may be largely classified into acute colitis and chronic colitis according to the period of the outbreak. As acute colitis, there is pseudomembranous enteritis, and the like by amoebic dysentery, bacillary dysentery,  Salmonella,  or antibiotics, and as chronic colitis, there is ulcerative colitis, and the like by a Crohn&#39;s disease, tuberculosis, syphilis, or X-rays. In addition, colitis includes irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as well as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). For the ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn&#39;s disease (CD) that are typical diseases among the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the causes thereof are not yet clearly found, the symptoms thereof may be severe chronic diarrhea and bloody diarrhea together with abdominal pain, and the ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn&#39;s disease (CD) are a long-lasting disease, and the improvement and deterioration are repeated. In addition, the ulcerative colitis is a disease that continuously forms erosion or ulceration on colon mucosa, and has bloody excrement, mucous and bloody stool, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, and in a severe case, has systemic symptoms, such as, fever, a loss in weight, and anemia. In addition, the ulcerative colitis may occur even in any part of gastrointestinal tract. The Crohn&#39;s disease is a disease that discontinuously causes lesion, such as, an ulcer in arbitrary regions of an alimentary canal, and has abdominal pain, diarrhea, and bloody excrement, and also in a severe case, symptoms, such as, fever, bloody discharge, a loss in weight, systemic boredom, and anemia. For the ulcerative colitis and Crohn&#39;s disease, there is a difference between the both in lesions and inflammatory conditions, but there are also similar aspects in many points. Therefore, these diseases cannot be often clearly distinguishable. 
     Conventionally, it has been known that the incidences of the ulcerative colitis and Crohn&#39;s disease are high in westerner, but recently, due to the change of life habit, such as, dietary habits, the number of patients with these diseases is rapidly increasing in the Orient including Republic Korea. However, because of unclear causes, no fundamental treatment has been established. For this reason, the medicine, which does not aim to completely treat the diseases, but can alleviate the symptoms thereof, and then, can maintain the alleviated condition for a long period of time, is in use. As a medicine for this symptomatic treatment, an aminosalicylic acid medicine, an adrenal corticosteroid medicine, and an immunosuppressant medicine are mostly used, but various side effects have been reported. For example, it has been reported that Salazosulfapyridine that is often used as the aminosalicylic acid medicine has side effects, such as, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, rash, headache, a liver disease, leucopenia, red cell anomaly, proteinuria, and diarrhea. In addition, as the adrenal corticosteroid medicine, generally, prednisolone is used in an oral administration, enema, suppository, and an intravenous injection, but has strong side effects, such as, stomach ulcer or femoral head necrosis due to a long period use. However, when being stopped taking the medicine, a recurrence of the symptom may occur, and thus, the medicine should be continuously taken. Therefore, the development of the medicine for treating a bowel disease, such as, an ulcerative colitis and a Crohn&#39;s disease is being demanded, in which the medicine has excellent effect, is safe, and has no side effects. Similarly, an irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is chronic celiopathy, in which the cause thereof is not clear. Currently, a fundamental medicine for treating the IBS is not developed, and the symptomatic treatment is being performed to alleviate the symptoms of each of the types. For example, an anticholinergic drug having a spasmolytic function that suppresses the contraction of a smooth muscle is used for a diarrhea IBS, saline cathartics are used for a constipation IBS, and it is difficult to control an alternative IBS by using a medicine, and a medicine for enhancing the movement of alimentary tract is fundamentally used for the alternative IBS. 
     Meanwhile,  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge is a perennial plant that belongs to a monocotyledon liliales  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, and the root stock of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge that is dried with the skin thereon or the rhizome thereof is used as a medicine. It has been reported that the rhizome of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge is used as a fever reducer in a field of oriental medicine, and has an effect on chronic bronchitis or diabetes. With reference to the pharmaceutical use of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, Korean Patent No. 10-0856335 discloses that the compound isolated from the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge has an effect on preventing and treating a respiratory disease; Korean Patent No. 10-0923953 discloses that an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract has an effect on alleviating the damage of choline nervous system; and Korean Patent No. 10-1075742 discloses that the compound isolated from the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge has an effect on preventing and treating a lipid metabolic disease. 
     In addition,  Galla Rhois  is a cocoon, which is made by parasitizing  Schlechtendalia chinensis  Bell that belongs to  Homoptera  aphid on the leaves of  Rhus javanica  L. that belongs to Anacardiaceae. In the field of oriental medicine, the cocoon without insects is called  Galla Rhois,  and is used as a medicine. It had been reported that as the medicine action of the  Galla Rhois,  there are a convergence effect, an anti-microbial function, an antibiotic function, an action on protecting a liver function, and an anti-oxidative activity. Korean Patent No. 10-0588470 discloses that a  Galla Rhois  extract has an effect on suppressing the metastasis of cancer cell, and Korean Patent No. 10-1078002 discloses that a  Galla Rhois  extract has an effect on preventing and treating obesity. 
     In addition,  Codonopsis lanceolata  is a perennial climbing plant that belongs to Campanulaceae, and grows wild across Republic Korea. The gross roots of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  are widely and medicinally used, and it has been reported that the roots of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  has a medicinal effect, such as, the discharge of phlegm. 
     In addition,  Coptis  is an evergreen perennial plant that belongs to dicotyledones ranales Ranunculaceae, and a specific example thereof includes  Coptis teeta, Coptis japonica, Coptis chinensis, Coptis deltoidea,  and  Coptis omeiensis.  In the field of oriental medicine, the rhizome thereof is collected and then is dried in the sun so as to be used as a medicine. As the ingredients with the medicinal properties thereof, there have been reported Berberine, Coptisine, Worenine, Palmatine, and the like, which has an effect, such as, an anti-bacterial effect, an anti-inflammatory action, a removal of fever, an action of facilitating the secretion of bile, and an action of lowering blood pressure. With reference to the pharmaceutical use of the  Coptis,  Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-2001-0085669 discloses a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating drug addiction, which includes a  Coptis  extract as an active ingredient; Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-2009-0029022 discloses a composition for preventing and treating a skin disease due to UV rays, which includes a  Coptis  extract as an active ingredient; Korean Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 10-2013-0022733 discloses a composition for treating a pancreatic cancer, which includes a  Coptis chinensis  extract; Korean Patent No. 10-0970739 discloses a composition for preventing and treating a respiratory disease, which includes a  Coptis  extract as an active ingredient; and above these, there have been disclosed a composition for treating a periodontal disease, which includes a  Coptis  extract, a composition for preventing and treating diabetic complications, which includes a  Coptis  extract, a composition for protecting and regenerating a nerve cell, which includes a  Coptis  extract, and the like. 
     However, there are no known effects of an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge that is related to the prevention or treatment of colitis, and also, there are no studies on the pharmaceutical effect for preventing or treating colitis by using an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge in combination with  Galla Rhois  and  Codonopsis lanceolata  or using an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge in combination with  Coptis.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Hereinafter, the terms used in the present invention will be described. 
     The term, “prevention” used in the present invention refers to all activities that can suppress the symptoms of a specific disease or can delay the progression of the specific disease by administering the composition of the present invention. 
     The term, “treatment” used in the present invention refers to all improvement activities that can improve or beneficially change the symptoms of a specific disease by administering the composition of the present invention. 
     The term, “administration” used in the present invention refers to the supply of the predetermined composition of the present invention to an object in an arbitrary proper method. At this time, the object refers to all kinds of animals, such as human, a monkey, a dog, a goat, a pig, or a rat having the disease, in which the symptoms of a specific disease can be improved by administering the composition of the present invention. 
     Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. 
     The present invention provides a composition for preventing or treating colitis. The colitis in the present invention refers to the condition having the inflammation of colon caused due to bacterial infection or pathologic fermentation of intestinal contents, and is a concept including infectious colitis and non-infectious colitis. A specific kind of colitis that can be prevented or treated by the combined extract of the present invention is an inflammatory bowel disease and an irritable bowel syndrome, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Examples of the inflammatory bowel disease include ulcerative colitis or a Crohn&#39;s disease. In addition, the colitis that can be prevented or treated by the combined extract of the present invention includes both of acute colitis and chronic colitis. The acute colitis refers to the inflammation in colon or large intestine, which occurs in acute, and mainly has mucus diarrhea or fresh blood symptom because of the damage of mucous membrane caused due to the inflammation. In the present invention, the acute colitis includes acute pseudomembranous colitis and acute ulcerative colitis as well as general acute infective colitis. 
     The composition for preventing or treating colitis according to an embodiment of the present invention includes any one (hereinafter, referred to as an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the like) selected from an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, an alcohol-soluble fraction having 3 to 8 carbon atoms of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, Mangiferin, Neomangiferin, or Timosaponin A-III as an active ingredient. The  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the like may effectively prevent or treat colitis by making the appearance of the colon to be good, suppressing the contraction of the colon, and maintaining low Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in the animal model with colitis induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). 
     The  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract in the present invention may be extracted from various organs or parts, for example, the leaves, flowers, roots, stems, rhizomes, fruits, seeds, and the like of an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, and preferably may be extracted from the rhizomes thereof. In addition, the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract may be prepared using a general extraction method that is known in the related art, for example, a solvent extraction method. The extraction solvents used for the solvent extraction method may be selected from the group consisting of water, low alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (for example, methanol, ethanol, propanol, and butanol), or the mixture thereof, that is, water-containing low alcohol, propyleneglycol, 1,3-butyleneglycol, glycerin, acetone, diethylether, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, dichloromethane, chloroform, hexane, and the mixture thereof, and, among them, may be preferably selected from water, alcohol, or the mixture thereof. When water is used as an extraction solvent, the water may be preferably hot water. In addition, when alcohol is used as an extraction solvent, the alcohol may be preferably low alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and the low alcohol may be more preferably selected from methanol or ethanol. In addition, when water-containing alcohol is used as an extraction solvent, the content of alcohol may be preferably 50 to 90% and more preferably 60 to 80%. Meanwhile, it is clearly understood by a person skilled in the related art that the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract in the present invention may have the effect that is substantially same even if other extraction solvents are used other than the above-described extraction solvents. In addition, the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract in the present invention includes the extracts obtained through other general extraction methods or the extracts obtained through a purification and fermentation process, as well as the extracts obtained by the above-described extraction solvents. For example, the extract according to the present invention include the active fractions obtained through various purification and extraction methods that are further performed, for example, the extracts from the fermentation products, which are produced by the supercritical extraction under a high temperature and decompression by carbon dioxide, by the extraction method using ultrasonic wave, by the isolation using an ultra-filtration membrane having a certain molecular weight cutoff value, by the isolation using various chromatography (which are manufactured for the isolation according to sizes, charges, hydrophobicity, or affinity), by using various microorganisms, or in a natural state, and the like. The extraction method by the supercritical extraction under a high temperature and decompression by carbon dioxide refers to a supercritical fluid extraction, and generally, the supercritical fluid has the properties of liquid and gas, which are obtained when gas reaches the critical point under the condition of high temperature and high pressure, and has chemically similar polarity as a non-polar solvent. Due to these properties, the supercritical fluid is used for the extraction of fat-soluble substances (J. Chromatogr. A. 1998; 479:200 to 205). The carbon dioxide becomes the supercritical fluid having the liquid and gas properties together, which is realized by being subjected to the process of making a pressure and temperature to be the critical point by the operation of supercritical fluid instrument, and thus, has increased solubility in a fat-soluble solute. When the supercritical carbon dioxide passes through an extraction container including a sample in a predetermined amount, the fat-soluble substance included in the sample is extracted in the supercritical carbon dioxide. After extracting the fat-soluble substance, the components that are not extracted only with pure supercritical carbon dioxide may be extracted by passing the supercritical carbon dioxide including a small amount of co-solvent through the sample remained in the extraction container, again. The supercritical fluid that is used in the supercritical extraction method of the present invention may effectively extract an active component by using supercritical carbon dioxide or a mixed fluid prepared by further mixing a co-solvent with carbon dioxide. Such a co-solvent may be a mixture of one or two or more types selected from the group consisting of chloroform, ethanol, methanol, water, ethyl acetate, hexane, and diethyl ether. The extracted sample includes carbon dioxide, which is volatilized into the air at room temperature, and thus, the extract obtained by the above-described method may be used as a cosmetic composition and the co-solvent may be removed with a rotary vacuum evaporator. In addition, the ultrasonic extraction method is a method using energy generated by ultrasonic vibrations. The ultrasonic waves may break an insoluble solvent included in the sample in the water-soluble solvent, and at this time, the high local temperature generated allows kinetic energy of reactant particles, which are located around, to be increased, thereby obtaining sufficient energy for the reaction. A pressure is highly induced by the shock effect of ultrasonic energy, and thus, a mixing effect of the solvent and substance included in the sample is increased, thereby increasing extraction efficiency. The extraction solvent that can be used in the ultrasonic extraction method may be a mixture of one or two or more types selected from the group consisting of chloroform, ethanol, methanol, water, ethyl acetate, hexane, and diethyl ether. A extract may be obtained from the extracted sample by a general method for preparing an extract, which includes collecting a filtrate by vacuum-filtering the extracted sample, removing the filtrate with a rotary vacuum evaporator, and then, subjecting the filtrate to a freeze-drying.

     I. First Experiment:Confirmations of Effects of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract, Fraction Thereof, and Compound Isolated Therefrom on Preventing or Treating Colitis 
     1. Preparations of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract, Fraction Thereof, and Compound Isolated Therefrom 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 1 
     Preparation of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     2 l of 80% aqueous methanol solution was added to 500 g of an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, then an extraction was performed in a water bath for about 2 hours, and then, a filtration was performed. In addition, 1 k of same solvent was added to the remained residue, and then a re-extraction was performed under the same conditions and then the filtration was performed. The filtered extraction liquid was concentrated under the reduced pressure to obtain 189 g of an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 2 
     Preparation of Butanol-Soluble Fraction From  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     After 189 g of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained from Preparation Example 1 was suspended in 1.5 l of water, 1.5 l of n-butanol was added thereto, and then, the obtained solution was left while shaking to isolate n-butanol-soluble fraction layer and water-soluble fraction layer. The n-butanol-soluble fraction layer was collected and then the collected n-butanol-soluble fraction was concentrated under the reduced pressure condition to obtain 41 g of n-butanol-soluble fraction. The yield of the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 8.2% or more based on the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, and the content of Mangiferin included in the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 10% or more. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 3 
     Isolation of Compound From Butanol-Soluble Fraction of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     10 g of the n-butanol-soluble fraction obtained in Preparation Example 2 was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (Merck, 10 cm×30 cm, 70 to 230 mesh) using an elution solvent (chloroform:methanol:water=65:35:10) to obtain 9 sub-fractions. Among 9 sub-fractions, Fr. VII that was a sub-fraction having the best effect at the test of animal model with colitis was subjected to a medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC, C18 reverse Merck, 3 cm×20 cm) using 25% methanol as an elution solvent to obtain two fractions. The two fractions were concentrated, respectively, and re-crystallized with methanol, respectively, to obtain two compounds in a type of white powder. As a result of confirming the structures of two compounds with a mass analysis and  13 C-NMR (Bruker, AVANCE digital 400), it was confirmed that two compounds were Mangiferin and Neomangiferin, respectively.  FIG. 1  illustrates Chemical Structural Formulas of Mangiferin and Neomangiferin. The yields of Mangiferin and Neomangiferin were 0.5% or more and 0.1% or more, respectively, based on the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge.

     2. Measurement of Effect of Treating Colitis Through Test of Animal Model With Induced Colitis 
     (1) Preparation of Experimental Animal 
     4-week ICR male mice (24 to 27 g) were purchased from OrientBio. All the mice were bred under the controlled environmental conditions of 50±10% of humidity and 25±2° C. of temperature, and the lighting was repeatedly on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours. A feed for a standard experiment (Samyang, Korea) was used as a feed, and water was freely taken. For all the experiments, one group was 6 mice. 
     (2) Induction of Acute Colitis by TNBS and Sample Administration 
     Among the experimental groups, one group was set as a normal group, and for the experimental animals in other groups, colitis was induced with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). In detail, after lightly anesthetizing the experimental animals with ether, 0.1 ml of the solution prepared by mixing 2.5 g of 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (NBS) solution with 50% ethanol was injected into the colon through the anus using a syringe having 1 ml volume and oval point, respectively; and then, the syringe was vertically picked up, and then, maintained for 30 seconds to induce the inflammation. Meanwhile, 0.1 ml of normal saline solution was orally administered to the normal group. Since then, from the next day, the sample dissolved in normal saline solution was orally administered in the volume that was decided in advance one time a day for 3 days. At the next day after completing the sample administration, the experimental animals were suffocated to death with carbon dioxide, the colon from appendix to the region just before the anus was removed from the colon region. 
     (3) Appearance Analysis of Colon and Measurement of Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Activity 
     1) Appearance Analysis 
     The scores about the removed colons were estimated by observing the appearances and the lengths of the colons according to the following criteria (Hollenbach, and the like, the criteria about the level of colon in 2005) as listed in Table 1. At this time, as a positive control group, the group administered with Mesalazine (Sigma) was used. In addition, some of the content in the colon was collected in order to analyze the rumen microorganisms, and then, was stored in a freezer of −80° C. From the tissue of colon, the content in the colon was completely removed and then the tissue of colon was washed with normal saline solution. Since then, some of the tissue was fixed with 4% formaldehyde fixing solution in order to be used as a sample for a histopathological examination, and the rest was stored in a freezer of −80° C. for a molecular biological analysis.

     2) MPO Activity Measurement 
     200 μl of lysis buffer was added to 100 mg of colon tissue, and then, the colon tissue was homogenized. Since then, the homogenized colon tissue was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes, and then, the supernatant thereof was obtained. In the supernatant, the MPO activity was measured using a mouse MPO assay ELISA kit (Hbt HK210, USA). 100 μl of the supernatant was added in a 96 well plate, and then, reacted at room temperature for 1 hour. After completing the reaction, the plate was overturned and emptied; was repeatedly washed three times with 200 μl of washing buffer solution; 100 μl of diluted tracer was added thereto; and then the reaction was performed at room temperature for 1 hour. After completing the reaction, the plate was overturned and emptied; and then each well in the plate was washed using 200 μl of washing buffer solution. After repeatedly performing the washing processes three times using 200 μl of washing buffer solution, 100 μl of diluted streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate was added thereto, and then, the reaction was performed at room temperature for 1 hour. After completing the reaction, the plate was overturned and emptied, and then, each well in the plate was washed with 200 μl of washing buffer solution. After the washing processes were repeatedly performed three times using 200 μl of washing buffer solution, 100 μl of TMB substrate solution was added thereto; the plate was wrapped in an aluminum foil to block out the light; and then, the reaction was performed at room temperature for 30 minutes. Since then, 100 μl of a stop solution was added to stop the reaction, and then, the absorbance was measured at 450 nm using an ELISA reader.

     (4) Analysis whether or not the expression of inflammatory marker substances are suppressed 
     1) Whether or Not the Eexpressions of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-Alpha are Suppressed 
     250 μl of RIPA butter including protease inhibitor cocktail was added to 100 mg of the colon tissue of experimental animal, and then, the colon tissue was homogenized. Since then, the homogenized colon tissue was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha were measured using a 96-well ELISA plate kits (Pierce Biotechology, Inc., Rockford, Ill., USA). The results of measuring IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha are listed in the following Tables 4 and 5.

     2) Whether or Not the Expressions of COX-2, iNOS, p65 (NF-Kappa B), and p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B) are Suppressed. 
     1 ml of RIPA buffer (Gibco) was added to 0.3 g of the colon tissue of the experimental animals, and then, the homogenization was performed. Since then, the homogenized colon tissue was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of COX-2, iNOS, p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), and β-actin were measured using a Western blotting method. First, 50 μg of the supernatant was subjected to an electrophoresis on SDS 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel for 1 hour and 30 minutes. The samples subjected to the electrophoresis were transferred on a nitrocellulose paper under the condition of 100 V and 400 mA for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The nitrocellulose paper transferred with the samples was subjected to a blocking with 5% skim milk for 30 minutes; and then, washed with PBS-Tween for 5 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed overnight with first antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:100. Since then, the paper was washed for 10 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed with secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:1000 for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Since then, the paper was washed for 15 minutes three times; was colored with fluorescence; and then, was developed. 
       FIG. 2  is the results illustrating the suppressions of the expressions of inflammatory marker substances in the colons of the experimental animal group administered with an n-butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained in Preparation Example 2 after inducing acute colitis by treating TNBS. In  FIG. 2 , “JM” refers to an n-butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained in Preparation Example 2 and “MEL” refers to Mesalazine.  FIG. 3  is the results illustrating the suppressions of the expressions of inflammatory marker substances in the colons of the experimental animal group administered with Mangiferin after inducing acute colitis by treating TNBS. In  FIG. 3 , “MF” refers to Mangiferin and “MEL” refers to Mesalazine. 
     As can be seen in  FIGS. 2 and 3 , in the colon tissues of the experimental animal groups administered with the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction thereof, and the specific compound isolated therefrom, the expressions of COX-2, iNOS, p65 (NF-Kappa B), and p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B) are significantly suppressed. 
     3. Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Specific Compound Against Inflammation of Macrophagocyte Induced by LPS or PG 
     4-weeks ICR male mice (20 to 28 g) were purchased from OrientBio. 2 ml of sterilized 4% thioglycolate was injected into the abdominal cavities of mice; after 96 hours, the mice were anesthetized; and then, 8 ml of the RPMI medium was again injected to the abdominal cavities of the mice. After about 5 to 10 minutes, the RPMI (including macrophagocyte) medium was collected from the abdominal cavities of the mice, and then, was centrifuged under the condition of 1000 rpm for 10 minutes to remove a supernatant. In addition, a flesh RPMI was added to a precipitated layer, and thus, the sunken cells were washed two times. Since then, a flesh medium was again added thereto, and thus, the cells were re-suspended. The number of macrophagocyte was counted using a hematocytometer. The macrophagocyte was seeded in a 24 well dish in the amount of 0.5×10 6  per a well, and then, was treated with the test sample and the inflammation-inducing substance. Since then, a RIPA buffer (Gibco) was added to each well and then a homogenization was performed. At this time, as the test sample, Mangiferin was used, and as the inflammation-inducing substance, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or peptidoglycan (PG) was selected. Since then, the homogenized macrophagocyte sample was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of IRAK-1 (Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IRAK-1 (phosphor-Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), and β-actin were measured using a Western blotting method. First, 50 μg of the supernatant was subjected to an electrophoresis on SDS 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel for 1 hour and 30 minutes. The samples subjected to the electrophoresis were transferred on a nitrocellulose paper under the condition of 100 V and 400 mA for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The nitrocellulose paper transferred with the samples was subjected to a blocking with 5% skim milk for 30 minutes; and then, washed with PBS-Tween for 5 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed overnight with first antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:100. Since then, the paper was washed for 10 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed with secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:1000 for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Since then, the paper was washed for 15 minutes three times; was colored with fluorescence; and then, was developed. 
       FIG. 4  is the results illustrating the suppression of the inflammatory response by Mangiferin in macrophagocyte treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or peptidoglycan (PG). As can be seen in  FIG. 4 , Mangiferin isolated from an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effect. 
     II. Second Experiment:Confirmation of Effect of the Combination of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract,  Galla Rhois  Extract, and  Codonopsis lanceolata  Extract on Preventing or Treating Colitis 
     4. Preparations of  Galla Rhois  Extract, Fraction Thereof, and Compound Isolated Therefrom 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 4 
     Preparation of  Galla Rhois  Extract 
     2 l of 80% aqueous methanol solution was added to 500 g of a  Galla Rhois,  then an extraction was performed in a water bath for about 2 hours, and then, a filtration was performed. In addition, 1 l of same solvent was added to the remained residue, and then a re-extraction was performed under the same conditions and then the filtration was performed. The filtered extraction liquid was concentrated under the reduced pressure to obtain 190 g of a  Galla Rhois  extract. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 5 
     Preparation of Butanol-Soluble Fraction From Galla Rhois Extract 
     After 190 g of the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained from Preparation Example 4 was suspended in 1.5 1 of water, 1.5 1 of n-butanol was added thereto, and then, the obtained solution was left while shaking to isolate n-butanol-soluble fraction layer and water-soluble fraction layer. The n-butanol-soluble fraction layer was collected and then the collected n-butanol-soluble fraction was concentrated under the reduced pressure condition to obtain 102 g of n-butanol-soluble fraction. The yield of the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 21% or more based on the  Galla Rhois,  and the content of glucose1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose included in the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 30% or more. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 6 
     Isolation of Compound From Butanol-Soluble Fraction of  Galla Rhois  Extract 
     20 g of the n-butanol-soluble fraction obtained in Preparation Example 5 was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (Merck, 10 cm×50 cm, 70 to 230 mesh) using an elution solvent (chloroform:methanol:water=65:35:10) to obtain 5 sub-fractions. Among 5 sub-fractions, Fr.

     9. Measurement of Effect of Treating Colitis in Test of Model Animal With Induced Colitis 
     (1) Preparation of Experimental Animal 
     4-week ICR male mice (24 to 27 g) were purchased from OrientBio. All the mice were bred under the controlled environmental conditions of 50±10% of humidity and 25±2° C. of temperature, and the lighting was repeatedly on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours. A feed for a standard experiment (Samyang, Korea) was used as a feed, and water was freely taken. For all the experiments, one group was 6 mice. 
     (2) Induction of Acute Colitis by TNBS and Sample Administration 
     Among the experimental groups, one group was set as a normal group, and for the experimental animals in other groups, colitis was induced with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). In detail, after lightly anesthetizing the experimental animals with ether, 0.1 ml of the solution prepared by mixing 2.5 g of 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (NBS) solution with 50% ethanol was injected into the colon through the anus using a syringe having 1 ml volume and oval point, respectively; and then, the syringe was vertically picked up, and then, maintained for 30 seconds to induce the inflammation. Meanwhile, 0.1 ml of normal saline solution was orally administered to the normal group. Since then, from the next day, the sample dissolved in normal saline solution was orally administered in the volume that was decided in advance one time a day for 3 days. At the next day after completing the sample administration, the experimental animals were suffocated to death with carbon dioxide, and the colon from appendix to the region just before the anus was removed from the colon region. Meanwhile, as the samples to be administered, an extract-based sample and a butanol-soluble fraction-based sample were used, and the administration of the extract-based sample and the administration of the butanol-soluble fraction-based sample were separately performed. 
     (3) Appearance Analysis of Colon and Measurement of Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Activity 
     1) Appearance Analysis 
     The scores about the removed colons were estimated by observing the appearances and the lengths of the colons according to the following criteria (Hollenbach, and the like, the criteria about the level of colon in 2005) as listed in Table 6. At this time, as a positive control group, the group administered with Mesalazine (Sigma) was used. In addition, some of the content in the colon was collected in order to analyze the rumen microorganisms, and then, was stored in a freezer of −80° C. From the tissue of colon, the content in the colon was completely removed and then the tissue of colon was washed with normal saline solution. Since then, some of the tissue was fixed with 4% formaldehyde fixing solution in order to be used as a sample for a histopathological examination, and the rest was stored in a freezer of −80° C. for a molecular biological analysis.

     (4) Analysis of Change Amount of Weight of Model Animal With Acute Colitis Induced by TNBS 
     The administration of sample into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS was stopped, and then, at the next day, the weights of the experimental animals were measured. The measured weights were compared with the initial weights to calculate the change amounts of weights.  FIG. 6  is a graph illustrating the change amount of weight in the animal models with acute colitis induced by TNBS when an extract-based sample is administered. In  FIG. 3 , “NOR” of the X-axis means a normal group 1, “TNBS” means the group 1 administered only with TNBS, “010” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 4 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “O10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 14 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “OHD10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 15 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “OH10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 16 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “OJ10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 17 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “HD20” means the group, in which 20 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 18 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “JD20” means the group, in which 20 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 19 was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS, and “Me10” means the group 1, in which 10 mg/kg of the mesalazine was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS. 
     In addition,  FIG. 7  is a graph illustrating the change amount of weight in the animal models with acute colitis induced by TNBS when a butanol-soluble fraction-based sample is administered. In  FIG. 7 , “NOR” of the X-axis means a normal group 2, “TNBS” means the group 2 treated only with TNBS, “OJD10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 20 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “O5” means the group, in which 5 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 5 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “010” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 5 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “J10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained in Preparation Example 8 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “D10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract obtained in Preparation Example 11 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, and “Me10” means the group 2, in which 10 mg/kg of mesalazine was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS. 
     As can be seen in  FIGS. 6 and 7 , the combined extract composed of the  Galla Rhois  fraction, the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract or the combined extract composed of the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Galla Rhois  fraction, the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract exhibits the almost similar amount or larger weight increasing amount as compared with mesalazine that was used as the sample to be administered in a positive control group. In addition, the combined extract composed of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract and the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract also exhibits the almost similar weight increasing amount to mesalazine that was used as the sample to be administered in a positive control group. 
     (5) Analysis Whether or Not Expressions of Inflammation Marker Substances are Suppressed 
     1) Whether or Not the Expressions of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-Alpha are Suppressed 
     250 μl of RIPA butter including protease inhibitor cocktail was added to 100 mg of the colon tissue of experimental animal, and then, the colon tissue was homogenized. Since then, the homogenized colon tissue was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha were measured using a 96-well ELISA plate kits (Pierce Biotechology, Inc., Rockford, Ill., USA). 
     When the extract-based sample was administered, the results of measuring IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha in the colon tissues removed from the animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS are listed in the following Table 9.

     In the above Table 10, “OJD” was the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 20, “the  Galla Rhois  fraction” was the n-butanol-soluble fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 5, “the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge fraction” was the n-butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained in Preparation Example 8, and “the  Codonopsis lanceolata  fraction” was the n-butanol-soluble fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract obtained in Preparation Example 11. As can be seen in the above Table 10, the expressions of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha are significantly suppressed in the colon tissues that are administered with the combined extract composed of the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract. 
     2) Whether or Not Expressions of Inflammation Marker Substances are Suppressed 
     1 ml of RIPA buffer (Gibco) including protease inhibitor cocktail was added to 0.3 g of the colon tissue of the experimental animals, and then, the homogenization was performed. Since then, the homogenized colon tissue was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of COX-2, p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), IRAK-1 (Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IRAK-1 (phosphor-Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IKK-P, and β-actin were measured using a Western blotting method. First, 50 μg of the supernatant was subjected to an electrophoresis on SDS 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel for 1 hour and 30 minutes. The samples subjected to the electrophoresis were transferred on a nitrocellulose paper under the condition of 100 V and 400 mA for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The nitrocellulose paper transferred with the samples was subjected to a blocking with 5% skim milk for 30 minutes; and then, washed with PBS-Tween for 5 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed overnight with first antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:100. Since then, the paper was washed for 10 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed with secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:1000 for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Since then, the paper was washed for 15 minutes three times; was colored with fluorescence; and then, was developed.

     In addition,  FIG. 9  is the results illustrating the suppressions of the expressions of inflammatory marker substances in the colons of the experimental animal group administered with a butanol-soluble fraction-based sample after inducing acute colitis by treating TNBS. In  FIG. 9 , “OJD10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the combined extract obtained in Preparation Example 20 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “O5” means the group, in which 5 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 5 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “O10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Galla Rhois  extract obtained in Preparation Example 5 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “J10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained in Preparation Example 8 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, “D10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of the butanol-soluble fraction the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract obtained in Preparation Example 11 was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, and “Me10” means the group, in which 10 mg/kg of mesalazine was administered into the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS. 
     As can be seen in  FIGS. 8 and 9 , the expression amounts of COX-2, p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), IRAK-1 (Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IRAK-1 (phosphor-Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IKK-β are significantly reduced in the colon tissues of the experimental animal groups that are administered with the combined extract composed of the  Galla Rhois  extract, the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract or the experimental animal groups that are administered with the combined extract composed of the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract, and the reducing levels of the expression amounts are higher than that of mesalazine. In addition, the combined extract composed of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract and the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract exhibits an almost similar effect as mesalazine that was used as the sample to be administered in a positive control group. 
     10. Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Combined Extract Against Inflammation of Macrophagocyte Induced by LPS 
     4-weeks ICR male mice (20 to 28 g) were purchased from OrientBio. 2 ml of sterilized 4% thioglycolate was injected into the abdominal cavities of mice; after 96 hours, the mice were anesthetized; and then, 8 ml of the RPMI medium was again injected to the abdominal cavities of the mice. After about 5 to 10 minutes, the RPMI (including macrophagocyte) medium was re-collected from the abdominal cavities of the mice, and then, was centrifuged under the condition of 1000 rpm for 10 minutes to remove a supernatant. In addition, a flesh RPMI was added to a precipitated layer, and thus, the sunken cells were washed two times. Since then, a flesh medium was again added thereto, and thus, the cells were re-suspended. The number of macrophagocyte was counted using a hematocytometer. The macrophagocyte was seeded in a 24 well dish in the amount of 0.5×10 6  per a well, and then, was treated with the test sample and the inflammation-inducing substance for 60 minutes. Since then, a RIPA buffer (Gibco) was added to each well and then a homogenization was performed. At this time, as the test sample, the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 14 was used, and as the inflammation-inducing substance, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was selected. Since then, the homogenized macrophagocyte sample was centrifuged under the conditions of 4° C. and 13000 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a supernatant. While the supernatant was stored at −80° C., the expression amounts of COX-2, iNOS, p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), IRAK-1 (Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1), p-IKK-β, p-IκB-α, IκKB-α, and β-actin were measured using a Western blotting method. First, 50 μg of the supernatant was subjected to an electrophoresis on SDS 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel for 1 hour and 30 minutes. The samples subjected to the electrophoresis were transferred on a nitrocellulose paper under the condition of 100 V and 400 mA for 1 hour and 10 minutes. The nitrocellulose paper transferred with the samples was subjected to a blocking with 5% skim milk for 30 minutes; and then, washed with PBS-Tween for 5 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed overnight with first antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1:100. Since then, the paper was washed for 10 minutes three times; and the reaction was performed with secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) in a ratio of 1: 1000 for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Since then, the paper was washed for 15 minutes three times; was colored with fluorescence; and then, was developed. 
       FIG. 10  is the results illustrating the suppression of inflammatory response by a combined extract composed of a  Galla Rhois  extract, an Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge extract, and a  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract in macrophagocyte treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In  FIG. 10 , “OJD” means the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 14. As can be seen in  FIG. 10 , the combined extract composed of the  Galla Rhois  extract, the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, and the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effect. 
     III. Third Experiment:Confirmation of Effect of the Combination of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract and  Coptis  Extract on Preventing or Treating Colitis 
     11. Preparations of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract, Fraction Thereof, and Compound Isolated Therefrom 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 21 
     Preparation of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     2 l of 80% aqueous methanol solution was added to 500 g of an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge, then an extraction was performed in a water bath for about 2 hours, and then, a filtration was performed. In addition, 1 l of same solvent was added to the remained residue, and then a re-extraction was performed under the same conditions and then the filtration was performed. The filtered extraction liquid was concentrated under the reduced pressure and was freeze-dried to obtain 189 g of an Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge extract. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 22 
     Preparation of Butanol-Soluble Fraction From  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     After 189 g of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract obtained from Preparation Example 21 was suspended in 1.5 l of water, 1.5 l of n-butanol was added thereto, and then, the obtained solution was left while shaking to isolate n-butanol-soluble fraction layer and water-soluble fraction layer. The n-butanol-soluble fraction layer was collected and then the collected n-butanol-soluble fraction was concentrated under the reduced pressure condition to obtain 41 g of n-butanol-soluble fraction. The yield of the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 8.2% or more based on the Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge, and the content of Mangiferin included in the n-butanol-soluble fraction was 10% or more. 
     PREPARATION EXAMPLE 23 
     Isolation of Compound From Butanol-Soluble Fraction of  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge Extract 
     10 g of the n-butanol-soluble fraction obtained in Preparation Example 22 was subjected to a silica gel column chromatography (Merck, 10 cm×30 cm, 70 to 230 mesh) using an elution solvent (chloroform:methanol:water=65:35:10) to obtain 9 sub-fractions. Among 9 sub-fractions, Fr. VII that was a sub-fraction having the best effect at the test of animal model with colitis was subjected to a medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC, C18 reverse Merck, 3 cm×20 cm) using 25% methanol as an elution solvent to obtain two fractions. The two fractions were concentrated, respectively, and re-crystallized with methanol, respectively, to obtain two compounds in a type of white powder. As a result of confirming the structures of two compounds with a mass analysis and  13 C-NMR (Bruker, AVANCE digital 400), it was confirmed that two compounds were Mangiferin and Neomangiferin, respectively.  FIG. 2  illustrates Chemical Structural Formulas of Mangiferin and Neomangiferin. The yields of Mangiferin and Neomangiferin were 0.5% or more and 0.1% or more, respectively, based on the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge.

     (1) Preparation of Experimental Animal 
     6-week male mice (C57BL/6, 18 to 22 g) were purchased from OrientBio. All the mice were bred under the controlled environmental conditions of 50 ±10% of humidity and 20 to 22° C. of temperature, and the lighting was repeatedly on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours. A feed for a standard experiment (Samyang, Korea) was used as a feed, and water was freely taken. For all the experiments, one group was 6 mice. 
     (2) Induction of Acute Colitis by TNBS and Sample Administration 
     Among the experimental groups, one group was set as a normal group, and for the experimental animals in other groups, acute colitis was induced with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). In detail, after lightly anesthetizing the experimental animals with ether, 0.1 ml of the solution prepared by mixing 2.5 g of 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (NBS) solution with 50% ethanol was injected into the colon through the anus using a syringe having 1 ml volume and oval point, respectively; and then, the syringe was vertically picked up, and then, maintained for 30 seconds to induce the inflammation. Meanwhile, 0.1 ml of normal saline solution was orally administered to the normal group. Since then, from the next day, the sample dissolved in normal saline solution was orally administered in the volume that was decided in advance one time a day for 3 days. At the next day after completing the sample administration, the experimental animals were suffocated to death with carbon dioxide, and the colon from appendix to the region just before the anus was removed from the colon region. At this time, as a medicine sample, the experiments using the butanol-soluble fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, Mangiferin, and a combined extract were separately performed at a distance of time, respectively, and the effects of the medicine samples on preventing or treating colitis were reasonably analyzed based on the group supplied with normal saline solution instead of a specific medicine in the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS for each of the experiments. 
     (3) Measurements of Weight Change of Model Animal, Colon Appearance, and Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Activity 
     1) Analysis of Weight Change Amount 
     The sample administration to the model animals with colitis induced by TNBS was stopped, and at the next day, the weights of the experimental animals were measured, and then, the measured weights were compared with the initial weights to calculate the change amounts of weights. 
     2) Appearance Analysis 
     The scores about the removed colons were estimated by observing the appearances and the lengths of the colons according to the following criteria (Hollenbach, and the like, the criteria about the level of colon in 2005) as listed in Table 11. At this time, as a positive control group, the group administered with Mesalazine (Sigma) was used. In addition, some of the content in the colon was collected in order to analyze the rumen microorganisms, and then, was stored in a freezer of −80° C. From the tissue of colon, the content in the colon was completely removed and then the tissue of colon was washed with normal saline solution. Since then, some of the tissue was fixed with 4% formaldehyde fixing solution in order to be used as a sample for a histopathological examination, and the rest was stored in a freezer of −80° C. for a molecular biological analysis.

In the following Table 12, the value of analyzed item is represented as a percentage to the value of the group supplied with normal saline solution that is used as a vehicle of a medicine sample instead of the specific medicine sample in the model animal with acute colitis induced by TNBS. 
     As can be seen in the following Table 12, when the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract or the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract is administered to the model animals with acute colitis induced by TNBS, the combined extract exhibits largely improved effect on alleviating or improving colitis as compared with the cases of administering the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract, or the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract, singly, respectively. Especially, the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract exhibits excellent effect as compared with the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract. It is considered that this is because the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract act on different targets to each other, in which the targets are related to the alleviation or treatment of colitis, and thereby exhibiting synergic effect. In addition, it can be expected that when the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract or Mangiferin that is a compound isolated from an  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge is used instead of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract; or the  Coptis chinensis  extract is used instead of the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract, the similar effect as the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract will be exhibited.

     17. Measurement of Effect of Treating Colitis in Test of Model Animal With Acute Colitis Induced by DSS 
     (1) Preparation of Experimental Animal 
     6-week male mice (C57BL/6, 18 to 22 g) were purchased from OrientBio. All the mice were bred under the controlled environmental conditions of 50±10% of humidity and 20 to 22° C. of temperature, and the lighting was repeatedly on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours. A feed for a standard experiment (Samyang, Korea) was used as a feed, and water was freely taken. For all the experiments, one group was 6 mice. 
     (2) Induction of Acute Colitis by DSS and Sample Administration 
     Among the experimental groups, one group was set as a normal group, and for the experimental animals in other groups, acute colitis was induced with dextran sulfate sodium (Molecular weight:36 to 50 kDaltons). In detail, the animal models with acute colitis were prepared by taking a 2.5% (w/v) aqueous dextran sulfate sodium solution for 7 days instead of water as drinking water. Meanwhile, the normal group was taken with water as drinking water. Since then, from the next day, the sample dissolved in normal saline solution was orally administered in the volume that was decided in advance one time a day for 3 days. At the next day after completing the sample administration, the experimental animals were suffocated to death with carbon dioxide, and the colon from appendix to the region just before the anus was removed from the colon region. 
     (3) Measurements of Weight Change of Model Animal, Colon Appearance, and Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Activity 
     1) Analysis of Weight Change Amount 
     The weight change amounts were analyzed in the same method as the experiment of model animal with colitis induced by TNBS. 
     2) Appearance Analysis 
     The appearance of colon was analyzed in the same method as the experiment of model animal with colitis induced by TNBS. 
     3) Measurement of MPO Activity 
     The Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities were measured in the same method as the experiment of model animal with colitis induced by TNBS. 
     4) Results of Measuring Weight Change Amount, Appearance of Colon, Clon Length, and MPO Activity 
       FIG. 22  is the graphs illustrating the weight change and microscopic score of the colon in the animal model with acute colitis induced by DSS when a combined extract is used as a medicine sample and  FIG. 23  is the graphs illustrating the results of the measurements of the colon length and MPO activity in the animal model with acute colitis induced by DSS when a combined extract is used as a medicine sample. In  FIGS. 22 and 23 , “NOR” represents a normal group, “AC” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 33, and “ALG” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 32. In addition, “AC10” and “AC20” respectively represent 10 mg/mouse kg and 20 mg/mouse kg as one time dosage amount of “AC” that is a medicine sample. In addition, in  FIGS. 22 and 23 , “M” represents mesalazine used as a positive control medicine, and one time dosage amount of mesalazine was 10 mg/mouse kg. As can be seen in  FIGS. 22 and 23 , the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract and the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract exhibit the effect on suppressing acute colitis in the similar level as mesalazine that was used as a positive control medicine. Especially, the combined extract of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract exhibits excellent effect as compared with the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract. 
     (4) Analysis of Effect on Expressions of Inflammation Marker Substances 
     1) Effect on Expressions of Proinflammatory Cytokine and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine 
     When a medicine sample was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by DSS, the expression amounts of proinflammatory cytokine and anti-inflammatory cytokine in the colon tissue were measured in the same method as the experiment of model animal with colitis induced by TNBS. 
       FIG. 24  is the graphs illustrating the expression amounts of IL-1 beta and IL-10 in the colon tissues of the animal model with acute colitis induced by DSS when a combined extract is used as a medicine sample and  FIG. 25  is the graphs illustrating the expression amounts of TNF-alpha and IL-6 in the colon tissues of the animal model with acute colitis induced by DSS when a combined extract is used as a medicine sample. In  FIGS. 24 and 25 , “NOR” represents a normal group, “AC” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 33, and “ALG” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 32. In addition, “AC10” and “AC20” respectively represent 10 mg/mouse kg and 20 mg/mouse kg as one time dosage amount of “AC” that is a medicine sample. In addition, in  FIGS. 24 and 25 , “M” represents mesalazine used as a positive control medicine, and one time dosage amount of mesalazine was 10 mg/mouse kg. As can be seen in  FIGS. 24 and 25 , the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract and the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract allow the expressions of proinflammatory cytokines to be decreased and the expressions of anti-inflammatory cytokines to be increased in the similar level as mesalazine that was used as a positive control medicine. Especially, the combined extract of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract and the fraction of the  Coptis chinensis  extract exhibits excellent effect as compared with the combined extract composed of the fraction of the  Anemarrhena asphodeloides  Bunge extract, the fraction of the  Galla Rhois  extract, and the fraction of the  Codonopsis lanceolata  extract. 
     2) Whether or Not Expressions of Inflammation Marker Substances are Suppressed 
     When a medicine sample was administered into the model animal with acute colitis induced by DSS, the expression amounts of COX-2, iNOS, p65 (NF-Kappa B), p-p65 (phosphor-NF-Kappa B), and β-actin in the colon tissue were measured in the same method as the experiment of model animal with colitis induced by TNBS. 
       FIG. 26  is the results illustrating the suppressions of the expressions of inflammatory marker substances in the colon tissues of the animal model when a combined extract is administered to the animal model with acute colitis induced with DSS. In  FIG. 26 , “N” represents a normal group, “AC” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 33, and “ALG” represents the combined extract prepared in Preparation Example 32. In addition, “AC10” and “AC20” respectively represent 10 mg/mouse kg and 20 mg/mouse kg as one time dosage amount of “AC” that is a medicine sample.
