Specific Knockdown of Nanog Expression by RNA Interference in P19 Embryonal Carcinoma Stem Cells
최승철,임도선 한국발생생물학회 2008 발생과 생식 Vol.12 No.2
Nanog is a newly identified member of the homeobox family of DNA binding transcription factors that functions to maintain the undifferentiated state of stem cells. However, molecular mechanisms underlying the function of Nanog remain largely unknown. To elucidate the regulatory roles of Nanog involved in maintenance of P19 embryonal carcinoma (EC) stem cells, we transfected three small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes targeted against different regions of the Nanog gene into P19 cells. The Nanog siRNA-100 duplexes effectively decreased the expression of Nanog up to 30.7% compared to other two Nanog siRNAs, the Nanog siRNA-400 (67.9 %) and -793 (53.0%). When examined by RT-PCR and real-time PCR, the expression of markers for pluripotency such as Fgf4, Oct3/4, Rex1, Sox1 and Yes was downregulated at 48 h after transfection with Nanog siRNA-100. Furthermore, expression of the ectodermal markers, Fgf5 and Isl1 was reduced by Nanog knockdown. By contrast, the expression of other markers for pluripotency such as Cripto, Sox2 and Zfp57 was not affected by Nanog knockdown at this time. On the other hand, the expression of Lif/Stat3 pathway molecules and of the endoderm markers including Dab2, Gata4, Gata6 and the germ cell nuclear factor was not changed by Nanog knockdown. The results of this study demonstrated that the knockdown of Nanog expression by RNA interference in P19 cells was sufficient to modulate the expression of pluripotent markers involved in the self-renewal of EC stem cells. These results provide the valuable information on potential downstream targets of Nanog and add to our understanding of the function of Nanog in P19 EC stem cells.

Although N-myc downstream regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) has been known to be a tumor suppressor gene, the function of this gene has not been elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the expression and function of NDRG2 in human gastric cancer. Among seven gastric cancer and two non-cancer cell lines, only two gastric cancer cell lines, SNU-16 and SNU-620, expressed NDRG2, which was detected in the cytoplasm. Interestingly, NDRG2 was highly expressed in normal gastric tissues, but gastric cancer patients were divided into NDRG2-positive and -negative groups. The survival rate of NDRG2-negative patients was lower than that of NDRG2-positive patients. We confirmed that the loss of NDRG2 expression was a significant and independent prognostic indicator in gastric carcinomas by multivariate analysis. To investigate the role of NDRG2 in gastric cancer cells, we generated a NDRG2-silenced gastric cancer cell line, which stably expresses NDRG2 siRNA. NDRG2-silenced SNU-620 cells exhibited slightly increased proliferation and cisplatin resistance. In addition, inhibition of NDRG2 decreased Fas expression and Fas-mediated cell death. Taken together, these data suggest that inactivation of NDRG2 may elicit resistance against anticancer drug and Fas-mediated cell death. Furthermore, case studies of gastric cancer patients indicate that NDRG2 expression may be involved in tumor progression and overall survival of the patients.

새로운 AlN 박막 제조용 단일 전구체로 AlCl$_3$: $^{t}$ BuNH$_2$을 합성하였다. c축으로 배향된 AlN 박막을 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 사파이어(0006) 단결정 위에 MOCVD 공정으로 증착시켰다. 본 전구체를 사용함으로 박막내의 잔류탄소 및 산소의 오염을 크게 낮출수 있었으며 Al:N의 비율이 1:1인 화학량론비의 AlN 박막을 제조할 수 있었다. 단일 전구체의 결정 구조는 단결정 X선 구조분석과 원소분석을 통하여 규명하였으며 박막분석은 SEM, XRD, SEM, AFM과 RBS 등으로 행하였다.

Changes in vertical coordination in the hog sector can result in lower production costs and higher price over the costs, lower retail prices, and improved quality of food products; but result in concerns about market power. The industrialization of agriculture to more differentiated products and coordinated markets can also result in more information and knowledge about the quantity, quality, timing of delivery in the food product chains. To gain the competitive advantage in relation to the more efficiently coordinated poultry industry, more strategic market coordination should be sought in the hog and pork industry, that is the cooperative coordination as a specific type of quasi-integration.

압전 actuator를 위한 새로운 형태의 재료를 개발하여, 그 특성들을 조사하였다. 이 압전 actuator는 세 층으로 구성되어 있다: 압전 세라믹 층, 조성이 점차로 변하는 중간층, 그리고 또 다른 압전 세라믹 층, 이러한 형태이 재료는 경사 기능 재료(Functionally Gradient Material, FGM)라 불리운다. 경사 기능 재료를 제작하기 위한 재료설계의 개념을 도입하여, FGM화에 있어서 열팽창에 의한 시편의 박리를 막기 위해 $(Pb,\;La)(Zr,\;Ti)O_3$계에서 서로 다른 세라믹스의 조성을 선택하였다. $1300^{\circ}C$, 2시간의 소성에 의해 경사 기능화된 PLZT는 약 $20\mu\textrm{m}$정도의 중간층을 형성하는 미세구조를 가지고 있었다. 경사 기능 재료에서의 유전 및 압전 등의 여러 특성은 두 접합 조성층 특성의 사이의 값을 나타내었다. 인가 전압에 따른 strain특성은 전반적으로 단일 시편의 특성보다 증가하였으며, 특히 접합 조성층에서 고압전-저유전성 조성과 저압전-고유전성 조성을 경사 기능화하였을 경우에 변위의 증가 정도가 더욱 향상되었다. In PLZT system, a new type of material for piezoelectric actuator was developed and its properties were investigated. This material consists of three layers : a piezoelectric ceramic layer, an interlayer which composition changes gradually, and another piezoelectric layer. This kind of materials is called functionally Gradient Materials(FGM). The composition of these layers were selected from the $(Pb,\;La)(Zr,\;TiO_3$ system through the concept of materials design. Sintered FGM at $1300^{\circ}C$, 2hr has an interlayer of about $20\mu\textrm{m}$ with no distorted damage. Dielectric and piezoelectic properties of FGM show intervalues of each side composition. The strain-voltage characteristics in FGM system was improved comparison with any single composition. Especially, the FGMs were fabricated which has high piezoelectric-low dielectric composition and low piezoelectric-high dielectric composition. The properties of both FGMs were significantly improved.
