The workplace exposure of chemicals has steadily increased, therefore the concern for subsequent effect on reproductive outcome has been an important issue in occupational medicine. In previous studies, higher rates of spontaneous abortion, reduced fertility and menstrual disorder among women, and an impairement of sperm quantity and quality among men have been associated with a wide variety of chemical agents. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of toluene, xylene and trichloroethylene(TCE) injection on the mRNA levels of GnRH, GnRH receptor and Pit-1 genes in male rats hypothalamus and pituitary and the effects on the plasma levels of FSH, LH, prolactin and testosterone. Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into five groups of five each according to concentration of toluene, xylene and TCE. The rats were injected subcutaneously to 0, 50, 100, 200, 400 mg/kg body weight/day of toluene, xylene and TCE, respectively for 6 days. Rat brains were excised and hypothalamus and pituitary were separated. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and RNase protection assay(RPA) were used to evaluate the GnRH, GnRH receptor and Pit-1 mRNA levels. Plasma concentrations of FSH, LH, prolactin and testosterone were assayed by radioimmunoassay(RIA). The results were as follows; 1. GnRH, GnRH receptor and Pit-1 mRNA levels in toluene and xylene injected groups, and GnRH receptor mRNA levels in TCE injected group were lowered dose-dependently. Especially, GnRH receptor and Pit-1 mRNA levels in 200mg/kg of toluene injected group, and GnRH, GnRH receptor and Pit-1 mRNA levels in 400mg/kg of toluene injected group were significantly lower than control group (p<0.05). GnRH receptor and Pit-1 mRNA levels in 400mg/kg of xylene injected group, and GnRH receptor mRNA levels in 400mg/kg of TCE injected group were significantly lower than control group(p<0.05). 2. The plasma levels of prolactin and testosterone in 400mg/kg of toluene injected group, and LH in 100, 200 and 400mg/kg of xylene injected group, and testosterone in 400 mg/kg of TCE injected group were significantly lower than control group(p<0.05). In conclusion, we speculated that toluene and xylene affected reproductive system secondarily through hypothalamus-pituitary axis, and TCE affected directly through steroidogenesis. And we recommended that further study for assessment of the reproductive toxicity of mixed organic solvent exposures should be conducted.

일상생활에서 모발염색은 흔히 접할 수 있는 미용의 한 종류로 특히 젊은층을 중심으로 폭발적으로 유행하고 있다. 염색을 위항 사용하는 약제는 표백제와 발색제 등 각종 화학약품이 사용되고 있으나 이로 인한 건강장해에 대한 연구는 그리 많지 않다. 저자들은 염색이 인체의 모발건강에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 염색과 관련된 주관적 증상과 모발의 변화에 대한 실험적 연구를 시행하였다. 동국대학교 경주 캠퍼스 재학생 80명을 대상으로 설문조사를 시행하여 염색 유 ·무 및 염색 후에 경험한 증상에 대해 설문 조사하였고, 의과대학 재학생 46명을 대상으로 피부 반응 테스트를 실시하였다. 또한 염색 전후의 모발 탄성도를 측정하였고 모발의 상태를 파악하기 위해 전자 현미경검사를 실시하였다. 설문조사 결과 염색 전에 비하여 염색 후 안구혼탁, 안구건조, 시력저하, 발진 및 접촉성 피부염, 모발손상, 모근손상 등의 증상을 더 많이 경험한다고 호소하였다(p<0.05). 모발손상과 모근손상은 헤어드라이어 사용 빈도에 따라 증가하는 것으로 조사되었다(p<0.05). 피부반응검사에서 가려움증이 가장 많은 증상이었으며 이는 여성보다는 남성에서 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 염색 전후의 모발장력은 염색 전 134.5±10.37g, 염색 128.0±30.69g, 염색 이틀 후 112.5±19.69g으로 나타났다. 염색 전후의 모발의 전자현미경 케라틴 층이 현저히 감소하고 모발이 가늘어지는 차이를 보였다. 염색은 모발손상, 모발 케라틴 손상 및 모근 손상, 발진 및 접촉성 피부반응, 안구혼탁, 안구건조, 시력 저하를 유발한다. 따라서 염색약으로 인한 손상에 대한 주의와 예방이 필요하다고 생각한다. 예방대책으로 염색 전 피부테스트를 통한 적합성 여부를 판단하는 것이 필요하며 가급적 염색을 피하는 것이 좋을 것이다. 염색약에 발암물질이 포함되어있다는 보고도 있어 염색 제조사의 철저한 실험과 염색 물질의 선별이 염색으로 인한 부작용을 최소화하는데 중요한 역할을 할 것이다. Hair coloring has became one of the most popular cosmetic activities to younger generations during last decade. However, there are few studies on the health effect of widespread use of chemical dyes. This study was conducted to study the effects of hair coloring dye on hair and other systems. We conducted a questionnaire survey of 80 persons in Kyongju campus, Dongguk University. We have done open patch skin test on 46 medical students. We also conducted scanning electron microscopy to examine the hair strength and structure before and after hair coloring process. Injury of hair and hair bulb, contact dermatitis, turbid eyes, xerophthalmia, and poor visual acuity were the main symptoms complained after hair coloring (p<0.05). Injury of hair and hair bulb were increased by frequency of hair-dryer use(p<0.05). In open patch test, pruritus was complanined by more than half of the subjects. Mean strength of hairs before and after hair coloring was as follows; 134.5 (SD 10.37)g before hair coloring, 128.0 (SD 30.69)g immediately after hair coloring, and 112.5 (SD 19.69)g after two days. The scanning electron microscopic findings of hair surface before and after hair coloring showed decreased keratin layer and thinning of the hair. Hair coloring induces injury to hair, its keratin layer, and hair bulb as well as contact dermatitis, turbid eyes, xerophthalmia, and poor visual acuity. Therefore, we think that precaution is needed in use of hair coloring dye. To prevent complications induced by hair coloring dye, it is necessary, especially to those with allergy or skin disorders, to perform skin test before action and avoid hair coloring whenever possible. Longterm health effects of hairdye should be studied and manufacturing companies should try to minimize complications induced by hair coloring dye.

Spontaneous esophageal rupture (Boerhaave's syndrome) is a rare case that require early diagnosis and treatment because of its high mortality. The oral administration of osmotically balanced polyethylene-glycol-based electrolyte preparation is a commonly prescribed preparation for cleansing in patients undergoing colonoscopy. Nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain are frequently seen, but serious adverse reactions are rare. Esophageal rupture secondary to severe vomiting, which occurred during colonoscopy preparation using polyethylene gIycoI(PEG) electrolyte solution is extremely rare and only few cases have been published in the literature. We report a case of spontaneous esophageal rupture after routine administration of the PEG before colonoscopy. 대장 정결을목적으로 PEG 사용 후 아주 드물게 발생하는 Boerhaave 증후군 1예를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

Effects of the standardized ginseng extract (G115) on the central monoaminergic systems were investigated in comparison with that of haloperidol in rats. Immediately after sacrificed by decapitation, the striata and frontzl cortex were removed. Concentrations of the monoamines dopamine and serotonin and their metabolites were determined by HPLC-EC. G115 increased the concnetration of 5-HIAA and DOPAC/DA ratio in striatum. However, dopaminergic neuronal activities were not affected by G115 that decreased the concentrations of 5-HT and 5 HIAA in frontal cortex. G115 in combination with apomorphine significantly increased the concentration of DA and 5-HT but decreased the DOPAC/DA ratio and 5-HIAA/5-HT ratio only in frontal cortex. These results suggest that G115 like HPD inhibits the activity of nigrostriatal dopamine neuron in striatum. However, unlike HPD it activates central monoaminergic neuron activity in frontal cortex.

Coevaporation에 의한 cd₁-xZn_(x)S 박막 제작 및 특성에 관한 연구

李載亨,李虎烈,朴鏞冠,申成浩,申載爀,朴光子 성균관대학교 1998 학술회의지원논문목록집 Vol.1998 No.-

In this paper, structural optical and electrical properties of Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S thin films prepared by coevaporation method were studied. Also, effects of ZnS mole ratio(x) to CdS on properties of thin film Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S/CdTe solar cells were investigated. When the ZnS mole ratio was less than 0.85, the crystal structure of Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S films was hexagonal with the c axis aligned perpendicular to the substrate. For x>0.85, however, the Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S films were grown with cubic zincblende structire. As the ZnS mole ratio increased the lattice constant of Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S films rapidly increased with ZnS mole ratio. The open circuit voltage of Cd₁xZnxS/CdTe solar cells increased with x due to reducing of the electron affinity difference between Cd₁xZnxS and CdTe films. However, the increase of series resistance due to the high resistivity of Cd_(1-x)Zn_(x)S films results on reducing conversion efficiency.

The authors report a case of false aneurysm of the superficial temporal artery which manifested after operation for FCCD. An aneurysm of the superficial temporal artery is a rare disease. In collected literature, the incidence of superficial temporal artery aneurysms ranged from 0.5 to 2.5 percent of all aneurysms for which surgery was performed. False aneurysm should be suspected when a mass, which may or may not be pulsatile, appears in the scalp region after recent trauma. Troublesome(but not life-threatening) bleeding may occur if the lesion is unrecognized, and an attempt is made to "shell it out" as though it were an epidermal inclusion cyst.

金銅線刻涅槃變相板 小考

李浩官 龍仁大學校 傳統文化硏究所 1998 丹豪文化硏究 Vol.- No.3

This relic was purchased by the Woohak(宇鶴) Foundation several years ago. It was treated for preservation and temporarily exhibited in the National Museum of Korea in 1988 before possessed by the Foundation. Yo˘lbanbyo˘nsangp'an(涅槃變相板, the Nirva­na, illustration from Buddhist su­tras, engraved on gilt-bronze plate)is roughly in the shape of incomplete pentagon in which its both sides and the base are square but the middle of the upside protrude. In the facet of the protruded side, it is described that Buddha is dying before the Buddhist Apostles in grief. The relic is 22.6cm wide in the base, 14.4cm high in the highest length and 0.45 m/m~0.65m/m thick. The purpose of this paper is to make a decision of the time it was made through a study of its technique. In the whole structure, bo trees(菩堤樹), Buddhist disciples, flying fairies, dying Buddha, pedestal and animals were characteristically inscribed in line by a graver with the tip of triangle. From the Three Kingdom Period(三國時代) passing the Unified Shilla(統一新羅) until the Koryo˘ Dynasty(高麗), it was usual that metal wares, sarira ritual wares, mirror plate and accessories had been decorated in the techniques of continually carving by a straight graver, a bell graver or a dot graver, or inscribing patterns, figures and characters in line by a delicate chisel. However, a remarkably different inscribing method can be seen in this relic. no example can be found in the other metal sarira wares out of some stupa produced from the late 7th century to the 8th century that had designs expressed by a special triangle graver like in this relic. There is no example with the technique using such a triangle graver even in those of Koryo˘ period which is estimated as followers of the Unified Shilla. This relic is the first Yo˘lbanbyo˘nsangp'an found in domestic cultural reality with a unique technique of continuous carving by a triangle graver. Domestically, only three examples of Yo˘raeyo˘lbansang(如來涅槃像, the Image of Nirva­na) in relief in the 10 Storied Pagoda of Wo˘ngaksa site(圓覺寺址十層石搭)the last altar portrait of Buddha among the picture of eight images attached to the four walls inside the P'alsangjo˘n(捌相殿) of Po˘pchusa(法住寺) Temple and this relic. Therefore, I think that it is rude to mention of the authenticity of this relic. It is also difficult for me to know what kind of relations between this relic and the Yo˘lbandangwhasang(涅槃銅畵像, one bronze work of Nirva­na) described in the documents of Kilsangt'ap(吉祥塔誌) in Haeinsa(海印寺). Only I can say that it is the first and only example of Yo˘lbansang with linear graving in a gilt-bronze plate and it is necessary to stud further and deeper the technique and the Pyo˘nsangp'an itself.

The authors analyzed 147 cases of basal skull fracture which were treated in the Department of Neurosurgery, Chungnam National University Hospital from Janwuy 1989 to December 1992. These fractures are difficult to diagnose by ordinary X-ray examination and are freguently inferred by clinical signs. The clinical features and radiological findings were reviewed. The results of the analysis are summarized as follows 1) The basal skull fractures were more common in men than women-the ratio being 6 1 1. 2) In decreasing order of cause of basal skull fractures were traffic accident~(77%), fall down, assault and slipping. 3) The minor head injury, Glasgow Coma Scale Score(GCS) of 13 to 15, was 79 cases(54%), the moderate head injury 40 cases(27%) and the severe head injury 18 cases(1996). 4) In decreasing order of clinical features were otorrhea(71 I) rhinorrhea(4856) and raccoon eye(33%) etc. 5) In decreasing order of the combined pathologies were skull fracture(55I 1, subdural hema-toma(l7%), epidural hematoma(l6%) and intraerebral hematoma(l2I) etc. 6) The facial nerve, vestibulocochlear nerve and optic nerve were the most commonly injured cranial nerve. 7) CSF leakage was noted in 139 cases and among them immediate type was far more common(%%) than the delayed type. 8) The incidence of meningitis was 5.4% and most of them associated with CSF leakage and the prophylatic antibiotic treatment has no effect to decrease infection rate. 9) In decreasing order of the frequency associated injuries were facial bone fracture (47%), clavicle fracture(19%), lower extremitics fracture(9%) and upper extremcties fracture(7%) etc.

Objectives: This study investigated the gene expression profile in basal ganglia of manganese-exposed rats based on cDNA array analysis. Methods: For cDNA array, 25 male Sprague-Dawley rats (250±25 g) were intraperitoneally injected with 25 ㎎/㎏ B. W./day of MnCl2 (0.3 ㎖) for 10 days. For dose-related gene expression analysis, rats were intraperitoneally injected with 0.2, 1.0, and 5.0 ㎎/㎏ B. W/day of MnCl2 for 10 days. Control rats were injected with an equal volume of saline. RNA samples were extracted from brain tissue and reverse-transcribed in the presence of [α^(32)P]-dATP. Membrane sets of the Atlas Rat 1.2 array Ⅱ and Toxicology array 1.2 kit (Clontech, Palo Alto, CA) were hybridized with cDNA probe sets. Northern blot hybridization method was employed to assess the dose-related gene expression. Results: Fifty-two genes showed significant changes in expression of more than two-fold. Twenty-eight were up-regulated and 24 were down-regulated in the manganese-exposed group compared to the control. Among the 52 genes, 28 genes including nuclear factor I-X1 (NF1-X1), neuroligin 2 and 3, mitochondrial stress-70 protein (MTHSP70), neurodegeneration-associated protein 1 (Neurodap 1), multidrug resistance protein (MDR), and endoplasmic reticulum stress protein 72 (ERP72), were reported for the first time related to the manganese-induced neurotoxic-metabolism in the rat basal ganglia. According to the dose-related gene expression analyses, MTHSP70, Neurodap 1 and ERP72 genes were up-regulated compared to the control even in the group exposed to low manganese dose ( 0.2 ㎎/㎏ B.W./day). Conclusions: Twenty-eight genes detected for the first time in this study were closely related to the manganese-induced neurotoxic-metabolism in the rat basal ganglia and further study of these genes can give some more useful information about the manganese metabolism.

물-공기 계면에서 긴 사슬 양 말단 작용기 분자인 α,ω-13,16-Dimethyloctacosanedioate Dimethylester(C_30DME)의 거동에 관한 연구

물-공기 계면에서 표면압력의 증가에 따른 C30DME 분자의 구조 변화를 살펴보았다. 표면압력(π)-표면적(A) 등온선을 통해 표면적이 줄어들 때 C30DME 분자가 선형으로부터 역 U 자형 구조로 변하는 것을 확인하였다. C30DME의 역 U 자형 구조의 형성을 확인하기 위하여 Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR)와 ellipsometry를 이용하여 Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film 의 두께를 측정하였고 이 두께는 C30DME 분자의 역 U 자형 구조의 높이와 일치함을 관찰하였다. 또한 Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)을 이용한 표면 거침도 측정의 결과는 선형으로부터 역 U자형 구조로의 구조적 변화가 불연속이라는 것을 보여주었다. We investigated the conformational change of C30DME molecule with an increase on surface pressure at the air-water interface. The surface pressure (π)-area (A) isotherm indicates that the structure of C30DME changed from linear to reverse U-shape as the surface area was compressed. In order to confirm the formation of reverse U-shape, we examined the thickness of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film by a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and an ellipsometry. The result of surface roughness measurement using an atomic force microscope (AFM) showed that the conformational change from linear to reverse U-shape is discontinuous.
