목적 : Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE)로부터 S. aureus로의 vacomycin 내성 유전자의 전파는 오래전부터 예견되어져 왔으며 큰 걱정거리로 남아있다. 최근에 vanA 유전자를 가지고 있는 vancomycin-resistant S. aureus 2주가 미국에서 분리되었다. 이 연구의 목적은 VRE를 보균하고 있는 환자들에서 S. aureus 보균양상과 항균제 내성을 알아보는데 그 목적이 있다. 재료 및 방법 : 2001년 1월부터 2001년 12월까지 부산대학교병원에 입원하였던 환자들 중 임상검체에서 VRE가 분리된 환자 7명과 2001년 9월부터 12월까지 외과 중 환자실에 입원하였던 환자들 중 VRE 감시배양을 시행하였던 20명의 환자들을 대상으로 하였다. 환자들은 전비공, 액와부, 회음부, 직장에서 매주 면봉으로 검체를 채취하였다. 선별배지에서 검체를 배양하여 S. aureus를 분리하였고 원판 확산법을 이용하여 methicillin 감수성을 측정하였다. Broth microdilution 법으로 vancomycin MIC를 측정하였다. 결과 : 총 27명에서 73회의 방문과 292회의 배양이 시행되었으며 총 67주의 S. aureus가 분리되었다. 이중 64주(95.5%)가 methicillin 내성이었다. 전비공 MRSA 보균율은 VRE를 보균하고 있었던 환자는 19명 중 11명(58%)에서, VRE를 보균하지 않았던 환자는 8명 중 3명(37.5%)으로 VRE 보균자에서 보균율이 더 높았다. 총 64주의 MRSA의 vancomycin MIC의 분포는 0.5-2㎍/mL였으며 2㎍/mL를 초과하는 균주는 발견되지 않았다. 64주 중 vancomycin MIC가 1㎍/mL인 균주가 54주(84.4%)로 가장 많았으며 2㎍/mL 6주(9.4%), 0.5㎍/mL 4주(6.3%)의 순이었다. 결론 : VRE 환자에서 S. aureus의 보균율은 비보균자 보다 높았으며 분리된 균주들은 대부분 MRSA였다. VRSA 균주는 발견되지 않았다. Background : The transfer of vancomycin resistance from vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) to Staphylococcus aureus has been predicted. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence and antibiotics resistance of S. aureus among patients colonized with VRE. Methods : Between January 2001 and December 2001, a prospective study was performed at Pusan National University Hospital on 27 patients. Surveillance swabs from nasal cavity, axilla, perineum, and rectum were obtained at weekly intervals. Methicillin susceptability of S. aureus was determined by oxacillin disk diffusion test and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for vancomycin by microdilution broth test. Results : Total of 292 swab cultures were performed and 67 S. aureus isolates were collected. 64 isolates (95.5%) were resistant to methicillin. The prevalence of nasal MRSA carrier in 19 patients colonized with VRE was higher than that in 8 patients not colonized with VRE (58% vs. 37.5%). In 64 MRSA isolates, MIC (㎍/mL) for vancomycin ranged from 0.5 to 2. No isolates with MIC >2 ㎍/mL were observed. MIC of 1 ㎍/mL was shown (observed) in 54 isolates, 2 ㎍/mL in 6 isolates, and 0.5 ㎍/mL in 4 isolates. Conclusion : The prevalence of S. aureus with colonization of VRE is higher than that without colonization of VRE. Most of S. aureus isolates were resistant to methicillin. VRSA isolates were not observed.

The needs about presentations of realistic image have been gradually increased the technical development and importance in the study of computer graphics. With the development of hardware enabling high-resolution image, we suggest to express more natural and accurate image in rendering. This paper presents photorealistic rendering algorithm that embodies accurate image such as photo. With relative evaluation among photorealistic renders that are used in present, we compare base and efficiency and also analyze the interface and application environment. Based on these our comparison, analysis and experimentation, this paper verifies quality and render-speed as important points in renderer. We expect that our experimental results will be used as comparative data in many rendering works.

In order to investigate the possible application of ZnO films as a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) electrode for film-typed dye sensitized solar cell(F-DSC), ZnO:Al films were prepared by RF magnetron sputtering method. The effects of gas pressure on the structural and electrical properties of ZnO films were mainly studied experimentally. F-DSC using either a ZnO:Al or indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode were also fabricated separately under the same manufacturing conditions. The electro-optical conversion efficiency and fill factor of the F-DSCs using both ZnO:Al and ITO transparent conducting electrodes were measured and compared with each other. ZnO:Al films showed the minimum resistivity of 2.6 x10^(-3)Ω-cm and a transmittance of 91.7% under the experimental conditions of doping concentration of 2 wt% of Al₂0₃ and gas pressure of 5mTorr. ITO films fabricated at 5mTorr of gas pressure also showed the minimum resistivity of 1.5x10^(-3)Ω-cm and transmittance of 92.1%. Although the electrical resistivity of ZnO:Al is higher than that of ITO, the conversion efficiency of F-DSC using ZnO:Al was comparable with that of F-DSC using ITO. The conversion efficiency of F-DSCs using ZnO:Al and ITO electrodes are about 2.8% and 2.9%, respectively.

Background: There is no effective treatment modality for caustic agent ingestion. Dilution and neutralization are prohibited because of the risk of secondary thermal injury. This experiment is designed to evaluate the amount of dilution and neutralization heat and to gauge the applicability of dilution and neutralization therapy using cold solutions to suppress the peak temperature. Methods: This is an in-vitro chemical experiment. HCl, CH3COOH, NaOH, and NH4OH are selected as representatives of strong and weak acids and strong and weak alkali, respectively. 20℃, 11.6M, 5.8M, and 2.9M solutions of each acid and alkali are made and mixed using a magnetic stirrer at a room air temperature of 28℃. The peak temperature, the duration above 40℃, and the heat amount are measured or calculated. Results: When a 11.6M HCl or NaOH solution is diluted with same amount of water, 32 or 18cal. per mL of HCl or NaOH is produced, respectively. HCl produces a significant peak temperature, but NaOH does not. The lower the concentration, the lower the amount of heat production. 11.6M CH3COOH and NH4OH solutions don't produce dilution heat.11.6M and 5.8M solutions of all acids and alkali produce destructive neutralization heat. However, 2.9M solutions produce neutralization heat which might be controllable. When a 11.6M HCl or NaOH solution is neutralized with a -10℃ 2.9 M NaOH or HCl solution, respectively, the peak temperature produced is below 40℃ and seems to add little thermal damage to viable tissue. Conclusion: Dilution and neutralization with a cold solution in cases of strong acid or alkali ingestion is a promising method to avoid thermal injury.

<P>Neuronal damage subsequent to transient cerebral ischemia is a multifactorial process involving several overlapping mechanisms. Gangliosides, sialic acid-conjugated glycosphingolipids, reduce the severity of acute brain damage in vitro. However their in vivo effects on the cerebral cortex damaged by ischemic infarct are unknown. To assess the possible protective role of gangliosides we examined their expression in the cerebral cortex damaged by ischemic infarct in the rat. Ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion, and the resulting damage was observed by staining with 2, 3, 5-triphenylterazolium chloride (TTC). High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) showed that gangliosides GM3 and GM1 increased in the damaged cerebral cortex, and immunofluorescence microscopy also revealed a significant change in expression of GM1. In addition, in situ hybridization demonstrated an increase in the mRNA for ganglioside GM3 synthase. These results suggest that gangliosides GM1 and GM3 may be synthesized in vivo to protect the cerebral cortex from ischemic damage.</P>

Kwak, Dong Hoon,Heo, Sung Yun,Kim, Chang-Hyun,Kim, Ji-Su,Kim, Sun-Uk,Chang, Kyu-Tae,Choo, Young-Kug The Korean Society for Integrative Biology 2016 Animal cells and systems Vol.20 No.4

Plant-derived multiple monoclonal antibody (mAb) <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> (<TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX>) produced in transgenic tobacco plants were cross-pollinated with mAb CO17-1A and mAb BR55. Human anti-colorectal cancer multiple mAb <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> was cloned using pBI121 vector. Mice were given a single intraperitoneal injection of azoxymethane (AOM) with 10 mg/kg body weight. Starting 1 week after the injection, mice received 2% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in the drinking water for 1 week. In addition, the mice were injected intraperitoneal with mAbs dissolved in phosphate buffered saline (<TEX>$100{\mu}g/mouse$</TEX>) twice per week for 4 weeks. Apoptotic cell death, expression of pro-apoptotic proteins, activity of inflammatory cytokines and ERK pathway phosphorylation were assayed by Western blot and TUNEL kit. <TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> meaningfully and efficiently suppressed the development of AOM/DSS-induced colorectal inflammation and colorectal tumors, as determined by a reduced activation of inflammatory cytokines, number of colorectal tumor-induced mouse, number of tumor per mouse colon than other mAbs. Cell death by apoptosis was much increased in the <TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX>-treated tumor compared with negative control. Apoptotic cell death and expression of pro-apoptotic proteins including Bax and cleaved caspase-3 were highest in treatment with <TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX>. In addition, mAbP <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> was meaningfully decreased the expression of inflammatory cytokines, including COX-2, iNOS, p50 and p65, but the expression of <TEX>$PPAR{\gamma}$</TEX> was significantly increased compared with AOM/DSS-induced carcinogenesis negative control. Moreover, <TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> meaningfully repressed the ERK1/2 phosphorylation in AOM/DSS-induced colorectal tumors. Therefore, our results suggest that multiple <TEX>$mAb^P$</TEX> <TEX>$CO17-1A{\times}BR55$</TEX> have meaningful effects of anti-inflammation related with the anti-carcinogenesis in AOM/DSS-induced colorectal tumor by inhibition of ERK1/2 phosphorylation.
