양정원(Yang, Jung Won),이미숙(Lee, Mi Suk) 한국디자인문화학회 2021 한국디자인문화학회지 Vol.27 No.2

본 연구 목적은 탈현대적 가치를 갖는 도가사상의 ‘도(道)’ 미학에 주목하여 중국의 미니멀리즘 패션에 내재되어 있는 미의식을 분석하고자 한다. 연구 방법은 선행 연구 및 관련 서적을 중심으로 문헌 고찰을 통해 서양 미니멀리즘과 이와 연관성을 갖는 ‘도’ 미학을 살펴보고 이를 토대로 도가적 미니멀리즘 미의식을 도출한 후 중국의 미니멀리즘 패션의 미의식을 분석하였다. 연구범위는 2008년 이후부터 2021년까지 중국문화에 노출되어 중국문화의 영향을 받은 중국계디자이너들이 전통적 미의식을 통해서 미니멀리즘으로 재해석한 작품을 대상으로 하였다. 서양 미니멀리즘과 상응하는 연관성을 갖는 ‘도’ 미학을 허(虛), 무위자연(無爲自然), 유(遊), 유무상생(有無相生) 등의 미적 개념으로 대별하여 조형적 특성 및 미적 가치를 살펴본 후 도출된 도가적 미니멀리즘의 미의식은 ‘비움의 허무미’, ‘미완의 약졸미’, ‘일기적 공간미’, ‘변증적 상생미’ 등으로 나타났으며 이를 토대로 중국의 미니멀리즘 패션에 내재된 미의식을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 서양의 미니멀리즘의 ‘단순성’은 자연의 ‘본질추구’라는 특성을 내포한 ‘허’의 미적 개념과 연관성이 발견되며, ‘허의 미니멀리즘적 단순성’에서 도출된 ‘비움의 허무미’는 무정형이며 일체의 꾸밈이 없는 직선형 실루엣의 간결한 형식으로 표출된다. 둘째, 미니멀리즘의 ‘환원성’은 ‘자연적 본질로의 회귀’라는 특성을 내포한 ‘무위자연’의 미적 개념과 연관성이 발견되며, ‘무위자연의 미니멀리즘적 환원성’에서 도출된 ‘미완의 약졸미’는 인위적 흔적을 덜어내고 자연의 본성 그대로를 전시하기 위해 천연재료의 본형을 살리려는 방법으로 표출된다. 셋째, 미니멀리즘의 ‘상황성’은 ‘절대 자유의 공간 추구’의 특성을 내포한 ‘유’의 미적 개념과 연관성이 발견되며, ‘유의 미니멀리즘적 상황성’에서 도출된 ‘일기적 공간미’는 비구조적 풍성한 실루엣, 천연의 질감을 갖는 소재 등을 통해 표출된다. 넷째, 미니멀리즘의 ‘전체성’은 ‘유무대립의 관계가 상생하여 강렬한 어울림’을 내포한 ‘유무상생’의 미적 개념과 연관성이 발견되며, ‘유무상생의 미니멀리즘적 전체성’에서 도출된 ‘변증적 상생미’는 비대칭, 비균제적 조화를 통해 표출된다. 이상으로 자연주의적 색채가 강한 도가적 미의식은 환경을 고려한 지속 가능한 패션 디자인의 기초자료로 활용되리라 기대된다. The purpose of this study is to analyze the aesthetic consciousness inherent in Chinese minimalism fashion by paying attention to the ‘Do’ aesthetics of the Taoism, which has post-modern values. As a research method, through literature review focusing on previous studies and related books, Western minimalism and its related ‘Do’ aesthetics were examined, and the aesthetic consciousness of Taoist minimalism was derived based on this, and then the aesthetic consciousness of Chinese minimalism fashion was analyzed. The scope of the study was targeted at works that were exposed to Chinese culture from 2008 to 2021 and reinterpreted as minimalism by Chinese designers who were influenced by Chinese culture with a traditional aesthetic consciousness. The aesthetic consciousness of Taoist minimalism, which was derived after examining formative characteristics and aesthetic values by dividing the aesthetics of ‘Do’, which has a corresponding connection with Western minimalism, into aesthetic concepts such as ‘Heo’, ‘Muwi-jayeon’, ‘Yu’, ‘Yumusangsaeng’, appeared as ‘Empty Heomu beauty’ and ‘Unfinished Yakzol beauty’, ‘Ilgijeok Space beauty’, ‘Dialectic Win-win beauty’. Based on this, the results of analyzing the aesthetic consciousness inherent in Chinese minimalism fashion are as follows. First, the ‘simplicity’ of Western minimalism is found to be related to the aesthetic concept of ‘Heo’ which implies the ‘pursuit of the essence’ of nature, the ‘Empty Heo-mu beauty’ derived from ‘Heo’s minimalistic simplicity’ is expressed in a concise form of a straight silhouette without any amorphous ornamentation. Second, the ‘reduction’ of minimalism is found to be related to the aesthetic concept of ‘Muwi-jayeon’, which contains the characteristics of ‘return to the essence of nature’ and ‘Unfinished Yakzol beauty’ derived from ‘minimalistic reducibility of Muwi-jayeon’ is expressed as a way to remove artificial traces and reveal nature. Third, the ‘situationality’ of minimalism is found to be related to the aesthetic concept of ‘Yu’, which contains the characteristics of ‘absolute freedom space pursuit’, and the ‘Ilgijeok Space beauty’ derived from ‘minimalistic situationality of Yu’, is expressed through unstructured silhouettes and natural textures. Fourth, the ‘wholeness’ of minimalism is found to be related to the aesthetic concept of ‘Yumusangsaeng’ that implies ‘intense harmony due to the coexistence of relationships’, and ‘Dialectic Win-win beauty’ derived from the ‘Yumusangsaeng’ of the aesthetics of the ‘existence-free coexistence’ is expressed through asymmetric and non-uniform harmony. As mentioned above, the Taoist aesthetic with strong naturalistic colors is expected to be used as a basic material for sustainable fashion design considering the environment.

Yang, Dong-Kun,Nah, Jin-Ju,Kim, Ha-Hyun,Choi, Sung-Suk,Bae, You-Chan,Park, Jung-Won,Song, Jae-Young The Korean Society of Veterinary Science 2014 大韓獸醫學會誌 Vol.54 No.2

Four viruses showing cytopathic effects in MDBK cells were isolated from brains of cattle showing downer cattle syndrome in 2012. The isolates were confirmed to belong to the genus Rubulavirus of the subfamily Paramyxovirinae. Isolate QIA-B1201 had the ability to hemagglutinate red blood cells from several species of animals and was capable of adsorbing guinea pig erythrocytes on the surface of infected Vero cells. Nucleotide sequence analysis showed that two isolates (QIA-B1201 and QIA-B1204) had high similarity with other human and animal PIV5 isolates ranging from 98.1 to 99.8%. The highest sequence similarity of the two isolates corresponded to strain KNU-11 (99.8% at the nucleotide and amino acid level) isolated from suckling piglets in Korea in 2012. To evaluate the virulence of strain QIA-B1201, we inoculated bPIV5 into 5 week-old mice via both the intraperitoneal and intracranial route. Body weight was not significantly altered in mice inoculated with QIA-B1201. In this study, we isolated and characterized novel bPIV5s from brain samples showing downer cattle syndrome, but were not able to elucidate the pathogenicity of the bPIV5s in mice.

WON, Young-Suk,JEONG, Eui-Suk,PARK, Hyun-Ji,LEE, Chul-Ho,NAM, Ki-Hoan,KIM, Hyoung-Chin,PARK, Jong-Im,CHOI, Yang-Kyu KINOKUNIYA CO LTD 2007 EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS Vol.56 No.2

<P><I>Corynebacterium</I> (C) <I>kutscheri</I> and <I>Staphylococcus</I> aureus were isolated from two Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats with a hemisected spinal cord. Grossly, gray-white bulging foci and abscesses were distributed throughout the parenchyma of the lung. Pathologically, severe necrotizing lobar pneumonia with abscesses and fibrinous pleuritis were observed. Immunohistochemical analysis found accumulation of galectin-3 in alveolar macrophages and the alveolar interstitial region. No other viral or bacterial pathogens were detected in these animals. In addition, similar pathogenic changes and accumulation of galectin-3 were observed in the lungs of SD rats experimentally infected with <I>C. kutscheri</I>. Using northern blot analysis, the relative galectin-3 and GAPDH mRNA levels were 4.6 to 9.3 times higher in <I>C. kutscheri</I>-infected lung than in uninfected controls. These results demonstrate that a single <I>C. kutscheri</I> infection can induce the upregulation of galectin-3 in the lung and that this molecule may have an important pathogenic role in <I>C. kutscheri</I> infections in rats.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>This study examines the co-generation effect of hydroxyl radicals (OH<SUP> </SUP>) via water oxidation and H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> via O<SUB>2</SUB> reduction in electrocatalytic processes with Sb-doped SnO<SUB>2</SUB> (SS) anode and carbon nanotube (CNT) cathode pairs facing each other as a function of applied SS/CNT cell voltage and purging gas (O<SUB>2</SUB> vs. N<SUB>2</SUB>). Prior to coupling the electrodes, both electrodes are examined for the generation kinetics and current efficiency of reactive oxygen species as well as the decomposition kinetics and total organic carbon (TOC) removal of phenol, as a function of applied half-potential (E<SUB>SS</SUB> or E<SUB>CNT</SUB>) and the purging gas. Regardless of the purging gas, a stepwise increase in E<SUB>SS</SUB> enhances the OH<SUP> </SUP> generation and phenol decomposition, yet inversely decreases the current efficiency of OH<SUP> </SUP> (max. ∼30%), owing to competitive O<SUB>2</SUB> evolution. Similar to this, the current efficiency of H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> is high at a less negative E<SUB>CNT</SUB>, reaching ∼80% with O<SUB>2</SUB> purging. However, phenol decomposition with CNT is trivial, owing to the limited reactivity between H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> and phenol. With N<SUB>2</SUB> purging, H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> is not produced nor is phenol decomposed. Compared to the sum of the performance of the two half-electrodes, the SS/CNT pair exhibits similar OH<SUP> </SUP> generation kinetics regardless of the purging gas, yet significantly enhanced H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> generation kinetics. The phenol decomposition and TOC removal with the pair are more than double their sums of the two half-electrodes at all E<SUB>cell</SUB>s with O<SUB>2</SUB> purging, whereas such a synergistic effect is found only at high E<SUB>cell</SUB>s when N<SUB>2</SUB> is purged. The simultaneous evolution of O<SUB>2</SUB> microbubbles appears to create an in situ oxic environment between the SS and CNT, leading to a synergistic effect through the production of H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB>, even under anoxic and anoxic-like conditions.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> The in-situ cogeneration effects of OH<SUP> </SUP> and H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> is examined for the first time using Sb-SnO<SUB>2</SUB> (SS) and CNT electrocatalysts. </LI> <LI> An increase in the potential of SS enhances the OH<SUP> </SUP> generation yet decreases the current efficiency (CE) of OH<SUP> </SUP> (max. 30%). </LI> <LI> The CE of H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> with CNT is high at a less negative potential, reaching ∼80% with O<SUB>2</SUB> purging. </LI> <LI> The SS/CNT pair exhibits similar OH<SUP> </SUP> generation kinetics and yet significantly enhanced H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> generation kinetics. </LI> <LI> The simultaneous evolution of O<SUB>2</SUB> microbubbles leads to a synergistic effect through the production of H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB>. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

Yang, Se-Ran,Cho, Sung-Dae,Ahn, Nam-Shik,Jung, Ji-Won,Park, Joon-Suk,Tiep, Nguyen Ba,Park, Ki-Su,Hong, In-Sun,Jo, Eun-Hye,Seo, Min-Seo,Yoon, Byong-Su,Lee, Yong-Soon,Kang, Kyung-Sun Korean Environmental Mutagen Society 2003 한국환경성돌연변이·발암원학회지 Vol.23 No.1

Gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) plays a key role during development, process of tissue differentiation, and in maintenance of adult tissue homeostasis. Neural stem cells leading to formation of cell clusters termed 'neurospheres', can differentiate into neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes. We investigated the expression levels and distribution of connexin43 (Cx43) and connexin32 (Cx32), abundant gap junctional protein in neural cells and in neurospheres isolated from rat fetus embryonic day (ED) 17. During differentiation of neurospheres, expression of Cx43 and 32 were increased time-dependently within 72 h, and then decreased at 7 day in western blot analysis. TPA-induced inhibition of GJIC was confirmed by decreased fluorescence by SL/DT assay, and induced hyperphosphorylation of Cx43 while no changes in Cx32 levels in western blot assay. Our results indicate that GJIC may be a crucial role in the differentiation of neuronal stem cell. And this GJIC can be inhibited by TPA through the hyperphosphorylation of Cx43.

Fault Diagnosis of Rotating Machinery Based on Multi-Class Support Vector Machines

Yang Bo-Suk,Han Tian,Hwang Won-Woo The Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers 2005 JOURNAL OF MECHANICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.19 No.3

Support vector machines (SVMs) have become one of the most popular approaches to learning from examples and have many potential applications in science and engineering. However, their applications in fault diagnosis of rotating machinery are rather limited. Most of the published papers focus on some special fault diagnoses. This study covers the overall diagnosis procedures on most of the faults experienced in rotating machinery and examines the performance of different SVMs strategies. The excellent characteristics of SVMs are demonstrated by comparing the results obtained by artificial neural networks (ANNs) using vibration signals of a fault simulator.

Genetic Relationships of Lactuca spp. Revealed by RAPD, Inter-SSR, AFLP, and PCR-RFLP Analyses

Yang, Tae-Jin,Jang, Suk-Woo,Kim, Won-Bae The Korean Society of Crop Science 2007 Journal of crop science and biotechnology Vol.10 No.1

RAPD, Inter-SSR, and AFLP markers were used to assess the genetic diversity of lettuce cultivars and the phylogenetic relationships in Lactuca spp. A total of 216 polymorphic bands from seven RAPD primers, four Inter-SSR primers, and five AFLP primer combinations were used to elucidate the genetic similarity among lettuce cultivars. Forty-four lettuce accessions were subdivided into discrete branches according to plant type: crisphead, butterhead, and stem type, with some exceptions. The leafy- and cos-type accessions were intermingled in other groups with no discrete branch indicating that these are more diverse than others. Three accessions, including the Korean cultivar 'Cheongchima', the Korean local landrace 'Jinjam', and the German cultivar 'Lolla Rossa' were classified as the most diverse accessions. Twenty bands were unique in specific cultivars. Among these, three were specific in a plant type; one in Korean leafy type, one in crisphead type, and one in cos type lettuce. In the phylogenetic analysis among Lactuca species, L. saligna, L. serriola, and L. georgica clustered in a sister branch of the L. sativa complex. Two L. virosa accessions show the highest intra-specific relationships. L. perennis outlied from all the other Lactuca species at a genetic similarity of 0.53 and clustered with two Cichorium species, C. intybus and C. endivia, with genetic similarity of 0.67. The phylogenetic tree was supported by data from polymorphism of chloroplast genome which was revealed by PCR-RFLP.

Gene Expression Profiling of the Rewarding Effect Caused by Methamphetamine in the Mesolimbic Dopamine System

Yang, Moon Hee,Jung, Min-Suk,Lee, Min Joo,Yoo, Kyung Hyun,Yook, Yeon Joo,Park, Eun Young,Choi, Seo Hee,Suh, Young Ju,Kim, Kee-Won,Park, Jong Hoon Korean Society for Molecular Biology 2008 Molecules and cells Vol.26 No.2

Methamphetamine, a commonly used addictive drug, is a powerful addictive stimulant that dramatically affects the CNS. Repeated METH administration leads to a rewarding effect in a state of addiction that includes sensitization, dependence, and other phenomena. It is well known that susceptibility to the development of addiction is influenced by sources of reinforcement, variable neuroadaptive mechanisms, and neurochemical changes that together lead to altered homeostasis of the brain reward system. These behavioral abnormalities reflect neuroadaptive changes in signal transduction function and cellular gene expression produced by repeated drug exposure. To provide a better understanding of addiction and the mechanism of the rewarding effect, it is important to identify related genes. In the present study, we performed gene expression profiling using microarray analysis in a reward effect animal model. We also investigated gene expression in four important regions of the brain, the nucleus accumbens, striatum, hippocampus, and cingulated cortex, and analyzed the data by two clustering methods. Genes related to signaling pathways including G-protein-coupled receptor-related pathways predominated among the identified genes. The genes identified in our study may contribute to the development of a gene modeling network for methamphetamine addiction.
