목 적 : 호흡기 바이러스 감염은 소아에서 천식을 악화시키는 것으로 잘 알려져 있다. 그러나 영유아기의 천식이나 천명발생에 있어서 호홉기 바이러스의 역할에 대해서는 명확하게 밝혀져 있지 않다. 소아기의 천명이 천식과 달리 하나의 독립된 질환인지, 아니면 같은 질환으로 달리 표현되는 것인지 논란이 되어왔다. 이에 본 저자들은 호흡기 바이러스 감염과 천명과의 상관관계와 기전을 이해하기 위하여 RSV 감염이나 influenza A 바이러스 감염에 의해 천명이 있는 소아와 바이러스가 증명되지 않고 천명이 있는 천식소아에서의 비인두 흡인액의 IL-5와 IFN-γ치를 측정하여 비교하였다. 방 법 : 호흡기 바이러스 감염군 38명(RSV감염군 21명, influenga A virus 감염군 17명), 바이러스가 증명되지 않은 천식환아군 12명, 정상 대조군 16명을 대상으로 double sandwich ELISA를 이용하여 비인두 흡인액에서 IL-5와 IFN-γ치를 측정하여 비교하였다. 결 과 : RSV 감영군에서 비인두 흡인액의 IL-5 평균치가 influenza A 바이러스군의 평균치보다 의미있게 높았으며, 천식군보다도 높은 양상을 보이나 의미있는 차이는 없었다 반면, influenza A 바이러스 감염군의 비인두 흡인액의 IFN-γ치가 RSV군에 비해 의미있게 높았으나 천식환아군이나 정상군에 비해 의미있게 높지는 않았다. 비인두 흡입액에서 IL-5와 IFN-γ치간의 상관관계는 없었다. 결 론 : RSV 감염군은 influenza A 바이러스 감염군에 비해 Th2 반응이 우세한 것으로 추정되며, 반면에 influenza A virus 감염군은 Th1 반응을 보이는 것을 알 수 있다. Background : Infection with respiratory virus has been shown to exacerbate asthma. However, the role of a respiratory virus in the pathogenesis of chronic asthma and/or wheezing in young children has not been clearly defined. And it also has been debated whether virus-induced wheezing in young children is an entity different from allergic asthma, or just a different expression of the same disease. In this study, we attempted to evaluate the importance of eosinophilic inflammation, comparing IL-5 and IFN-γ levels in nasopharyngeal secretions in wheezing children with or without viral infection and the controls. Methods : We compared IL-5 and IFN-γ levels in nasopharyngeal secretions from 38 non-asthmatic wheezing children with viral infections (RSV in 21 children, influenza A virus in 17 children), 12 asthmatic children without viral infections and 16 children as the controls. Results : The present study reported that RSV infection in children induced more releasing of IL-5 in nasopharyngeal secretions than the influenza A virus infected ones and the controls. On the other hand, the releasing of IFN-γ levels in nasopharyngeal secretions from children with influenza A virus infection was significantly higher than those of the children with RSV infection or asthmatic children. Conclusion : RSV infection in children may play a role in the immune response toward a Th2 phenotype as increasing IL-5 secretion in nasopharyngeal secretion. Increased IFN-γ production in response to the influenza A virus infection may be related to the effective Th1 responses.

Kang, Woong Chol,Il Moon, Chan,Lee, Kyounghoon,Han, Seung Hwan,Suh, Soon Yong,Moon, Jeonggeun,Shin, Mi Seung,Ahn, Taehoon,Shin, Eak Kyun Lippincott Williams Wilkins, Inc. 2011 Coronary artery disease Vol.22 No.8

BACKGROUND: We compared the relationship between inflammatory markers and neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. METHODS: We implanted a single DES in 42 consecutive patients with stable angina. The plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) levels were measured before, and 24 and 72 h after the procedure. Angiography and intravascular ultrasound were performed. RESULTS: No relationship was noted between the baseline hs-CRP level and NIH. A significant positive correlation was noted between NIH and the hs-CRP level obtained at 24 h (r=0.435, P=0.004), and 72 h (r=0.334, P=0.031) after the procedure. Interestingly, there was a positive correlation between the change (&Dgr;) in the hs-CRP level and NIH at 24 h (r=0.414, P=0.006). The fourth quartile of the hs-CRP at 24 h after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had significantly larger volume of NIH than the first quartile (20.1±25.1 vs. 2.7±6.4 mm, P<0.05). Moreover, NIH in the fourth quartile (20.9±26.4 mm) was higher than the first quartile (3.3±8.6 mm) of the &Dgr; hs-CRP level at 24 h (P<0.05) after the procedure. Although the IL-6 level at the baseline and 72 h after the procedure were positively correlated with NIH (r=0.337, P=0.029 and r=0.435, P=0.004, respectively), the &Dgr; IL-6 level at any stage was not correlated with NIH. Neither the MMP-9 level nor the &Dgr; MMP-9 level at any stage was correlated with NIH. CONCLUSION: This prospective intravascular ultrasound study showed the inflammatory response after PCI, as measured by hs-CRP levels, but not the baseline hs-CRP level, predict NIH after DES implantation. Neither a change in the IL-6 nor MMP-9 levels at any stage after PCI reflected NIH.

사람 인터루킨-2(IL-2)의 cDNA 클론을 oligo-누클레오티드를 primer로 사용하여 분리하였다. 사람 leukaemic T-cell line인 Jurkat 세포로부터 mRNA를 분리 하였다. ss-cDNA를 합성하기 위하여 인터루킨-2를 코딩하는 mRNA의 3' 끝쪽에 상보적인 30 mer oligo-누클레오티드를 역전사 반응시 primer로 사용하였으며, ds-cDNA를 합성하기 위해서는 만들어진 ss-cDNA의 3' 끝쪽에 상보적인 oligo-누클레오티드를 primer로 사용하였다. 이 ds-cDNA를 사용하여 partial cDNA library를 만든 뒤 cDNA 합성에 사용한 oligo-누클레오티드를 probe로 사용하여 콜로니 hybridization을 하여 인터루킨-2 cDNA를 찾기위하여 screen하였다. 약 200개의 transformants 중에서 세 클론이 positive signal을 나타냈다. 제한효소지도를 작성하고 누클레오티드 염기서열을 결정함으로써 이들 세 클론이 모두 인터루킨-2 cDNA를 포함하고 있음을 밝혔다. 이 결과는 우리가 만든 partial cDNA library에 인터루킨-2 cDNA가 Taniguchi 등 (1983)이 만든 total cDNA library에 들어있는 것보다 약 300배 가량 증가되어 있음을 시사한다. A cDNA clone for human interleukin-2 (IL-2) was isolated by using oligonucleotides as primers for the first and the second cDNA syntheses. Total RNA was prepared from Jurkat, a human leukaemic T-cell line, cells and mRNA was isolated. To synthesize ss-cDNA, a 30 mer oligonucleotide was used as a primer in the reverse transcriptase reaction. The sequence of the oligonucleotide was complementary to the 3' end of the coding sequence of IL-2. ds-cDNA was synthesized by DNA polymerase reaction using another oligonucleotide as a primer. A partial cDNA library was prepared using the ds-cDNA and screened for the presence of IL-2 cDNA by colony hybridization using the same oligonucleotides that were used in the cDNA synthesis reactions as probes. Three out of 200 transformants showed positive signals. Analysis of these three clones by restriction enzyme mapping and nucleotide sequencing showed that all of them contained IL-2 cDNA. Our results indicated that the IL-2 cDNA was enriched in the partial cDNA library about 300 fold over the population of IL-2 cDNA in the total cDNA library reported by Taniguchi et al. (1983).

Methods: We collated and reviewed previously conducted review studies on border closures during infectious disease outbreaks to derive relevant themes and factors. Results: According to our systematic review on border closures and travel restrictions, the effects of such containment efforts are limited. We suggest considering the following factors when determining whether to impose border closure measures: (1) disease characteristics, (2) timeliness of implementation, (3) transmission delay and the basic reproduction number, (4) globalization and pandemics, and (5) social and economic costs. Conclusions: Our assessment indicates that the effects of border closures are at best temporary and limited. Alternative measures must be contemplated and implemented to suppress the spread of COVID-19 in particular and infectious diseases more broadly.

몇 가지 항균제가 시험관내에서 내독소와 TNF-α, IL-6 분비에 미치는 영향

최정현,문건웅,김명훈,이동건,박윤희,김상일,김태연,유진홍,김양리,신완식,강문원 대한화학요법학회 1997 대한화학요법학회지 Vol.15 No.2

To evaluate antibiotic-induced endotoxin release(AIER) and its correlation with some cytokines, we measured endotoxin level and tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α) and interleukin6(IL-6) production in mononuclear cells in vitro after exposure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to antibiotics belonging to different class with two extreme concentrations. The tested concetration of antibiotics were set up according to peak serum level. The low concetration of ceftazidirne and low concentration of imiperiem increased AIER, but high concentration of ceftazideme, high concentration of ciprofloxacin, high concentration of cefoperazone/sulbactam, high concentration of amikacin, and high concentration of meropenem reduced AIER.Interestingly, combined treatment of these antibiotics markedly reduced AIER, But the major cyotkines, TNF-α and IL-6 were not affect by type and concettration of antibiotics, combined treatment of antibiotics, and level of endotoxin released by antiboitics. In this study, we observed AIER was different according to type of antibiotics, concentration of antibiotics, and combination of antibiotics, But AIER had poor correlation with TNF-α and IL-6 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It suggests that cytokine release is not solely dependent to endotoxin, but more complex cascade is needed. More invesfigations, such as endotoxin induced cytokine mRNA expression, relationship with penicillin-binding proteins and endotoxin-neutralizing effect of antibiotic itself, must be performed.

큰느타리버섯의 기능성 식품으로서 활용도를 높이기 위해 동결 건조된 자실체에서 분리한 조다당체 추출물이 면역세포 활성에 미치는 효과를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 조다당체 추출물은 300 및 1,000 ㎍/mL 농도에서 비장세포의 증식을 유도하였으며, 이때 비장세포는 IL-6와 IFN-γ 분비를 유도하는 것으로 나타났다. 조다당체 추출물은 농도 의존적으로 B세포의 증식을 유도하였으며, 특히 100 ㎍/mL 농도 이상에서는 B세포의 증식이 현저히 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 조다당체 추출물 1,000 ㎍/mL 농도에서 B세포가 생산하는 IgG1, IgG2a, IgG3의 분비량이 현저히 증가하였다. 또한 농도 의존적으로 대식세포주의 일산화질소 생산을 유도하였으며, 대식세포가 분비하는 IL-6, TNF-α, GM-CSF의 생산도 현저히 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. The objective of the current study was to determine the effects of the crude polysaccharide isolated from fruit body of Pleurotus eryngii on mouse splenocytes, B cells, and macrophages in vitro. The crude poly-saccharides directly induced the proliferation of spleen cells in a dose-dependent manner and increased IL-6 and IFN-γ synthesis. The crude polysaccharides also increased the proliferation of B cells in a dose-dependent manner. The production of immunoglobulin G1, G2a and IgG3 in the presence of the crude polysaccharides was increased progressively in the culture supernatant. When the crude polysaccharide were used in macrophage cell line (RAW264.7) stimulation, there were marked induction of NO synthesis in a dose-dependent manner and IL-6, TNF-γ and GM-CSF synthesis. These results suggest that the crude polysaccharide isolated from fruit body of Pleurotus eryngii seem to act as a potent immunomodulator causing augmentation of immune cell activity, and thus could be used as a biological response modifier having possible therapeutic effects against immunological disorders, without any side effects.

The aim of this study were to investigate radiation-induced atresia and radiation susceptibility in the rat ovary morphologically. Female rats (Sprague Dawley strain) of 4 weeks old were irradiated with dose of 4 Gy and 8 Gy, and sacrificed at hour 6, 12, and 24 after radiation. The H & E stain, the TUNEL method (ApopTag kit) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used. In light microscopic observation, the number of atresia of ovarian follicles were increased significantly at 6h after irradiation (p<0.01). There was no significant difference between 4 Gy and 8 Gy irradiated groups. In TEM observation, granulosa cells in radio-sensitive follicles were characterized by several structural features including condensation of nuclear chromatin granules, nuclear fragmentation and apoptotic body formation. An apoptotic cell is observed to have been phagocytosed by a normal granulosa cell. Granulosa cells in radio-resistant follicles were characterized by several structural features including nuclear indentation, partial condensation of chromatin granules, mitochondrial swelling, dilatation of RER cisterns, accumulation of dense irregular masses, accumulation of lipid droplets, and increased lysosomal bodies. Number of gap junctions between granulosa cells were decreased, and intercellular space were widen than that of control animals. These findings were prominent at 6h after irradiation and were diminished at 12h and 24h after irradiation. With these results, it was concluded that radiation-induced follicular cell apoptosis and ovarian follicular atresia in rat ovary increased considerably at 6h after irradiation. Further studies are needed to reveal the more extensive differences between radiosensitive and radioresistant follicular granulosa cells.

Oral & maxillofacial infections are most commonly odontogenic in origin. Although such infections are usually self-limiting, they may occasionally spread deeply into fascial spaces or planes far from the initial site of involvement. If early diagnosis and appropriate therapy is delayed, complications such as mediastinal extension, retropharyngeal spread and airway obstruction could happen to the patients. For the study of the microbiology, we have retrospectively analysed the oral & maxillofacial infected patients in the Dept. of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, In-Ha University Hospital from 1997 September to 2000 April. The results were as follows 1.The male patients were more common than female, with male 61.9% and female 38.1%. 2.Dental originated infections were most common cause with the incidence of 62%. 3.Most common fascial space involved was buccal space 42cases(37.2%) followed by submandibular space 13cases(11.5%), infraorbital space 13cases(11.5%), masseteric space 11cases(9.7%) , periapical abscess 11cases(9.7%) . 4.The causative organisms isolated from the pus culture were Gram Positive Bacterial species, which were 46cases(31.9%) of Streptococcus viridans, 16cases(8.6%) of α and β-hemolytic streptococcus, 4cases(3.1%) of Strep.-group D non enterococci, 7cases(5.1%) of Staphylococcus Coa. Neg., 5cases(3.9%) of Staphylococcus aureus, 3cases(2.3%) of Enterococcus faecalis, 1case(0.8%) of Bacillus species, 1case(0.8%) of Peptostreptococcus, 1case(0.8%) of Clostridium and Gram negative bacterial species, which were 4cases(3.1%) of Acinetobacter baumannii, 2cases(1.6%) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 2cases(1.6%) of Burkholderia cepacia, 1case(0.8%) of Neisseria species, 1case(0.8%) of Klebsiella pneumoniae, 1case(0.8%) of Klebsiella oxytoca, 1case(0.8%) of Escherichia coli. 5.In drug sensitivity test, high resistant tendency was found in Penicillin system(Penicillin G 83.3%, Ampicillin 60%) and Aminoglycosides (Gentamycin 50%, Tobramycin 45.5%), but tertiary Cephalosporin system(Cefoperazone 9.1%, Ceftazidime 18.2%), and glycopeptides system (Teicoplanin 0% , Vancomycin 0%) showed lower resistancy.
