Purpose: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a vascular endothelial cell specific mitogen and a major regulator of angiogenesis. VEGF secretion is activated in some thyroid cancers and that VEGF secretion is stimulated by TSH. So we postulated that TSH may promote growth and invasion in some thyroid cancers by stimulating VEGF secretion and angiogenesis. Methods and Results: We investigated the TSH effect for the VEGF secretion, endothelial cell proliferation and invasion in vitro with the primary cultured normal thyroid cell (NT-1) and thyroid cancer cell line (TPC-1). And to evaluate the relationship between TSH and VEGF, angiogenesis and tumor growth in vivo, we xenografted human dermal matrix inoculated with thyroid cells into nude mice or directly injected subcutaneously. For the study, mice were made hypothyroid (Group 1) by antithyroid hormone p.o, hyperthyroid (Group 2) by L-thyroxine injection and euthyroid (Group 3). One week after the treatment, significant difference were noted in T3, T4 and TSH level between each group, but the VEGF level showed significant difference in group 1 only compared with group 2 and 3. NT-1 or TPC-1 were seeded in the upper chamber of Transwell and HUVEC were cultured in lower chamber, and added different concentration of TSH. NT-1 and TPC-1 secreted VEGF under basal condition, but the level were similar. TPC-1 cells secreted significantly more VEGF than NT-1 after TSH (1, 10, 100 mIU/dl) stimulation, which were also parallel with the concentration of TSH. In low concentration of TSH (0, 1 mIU/dl), there were no difference of HUVEC proliferation between NT-1 and TPC 1. In high concentration of TSH (10, 100 mIU/dl), however, TPC-1 enhanced HUVEC proliferation than NT-1 significantly (p<0.05). Similar findings were noted in thyroid cell invasion. Invasion was higher in TPC-1 than in NT-1 in high concentration of TSH (10, 100 mIU/dl). In vivo study using the dermal matrix showed that number of blood vessels ingrowth were higher in Group 1 (25/HPF) than Group 2 (16/HPF) or Group 3 (17/HPF). But there was no difference between Group 2 and Group 3. Level of TSH and VEGF were also increased significantly in Group 1 compared with in Group 2 and Group 3. The size of tumor did not showed significant difference between each group during observation. The tumor from Group 1 (6.2 gm) were larger compared with Group 2 (5.1 gm) or Group 3 (5.6 gm), but this difference was not significant statistically (p>0.05). The number of blood vessels in tumor were also more increased in Group 1 and were commonly located in the peripheral portion of tumor. Conclusion: We conclude that thyroid cancer cell line secrete the VEGF and TSH secretion is more enhanced by the stimulation of TSH. And increased VEGF promote the vascular endothelial cell proliferation, invasion and angiogenesis in thyroid cancer. (Korean J Endocrine Surg 2001; 1:51-60)

The aim of this study was to isolate microorganisms from half milk samples of dairy goats by California mastitis test (CMT) during the lactation period and to further investigate the susceptibility of isolated organisms to antimicrobial drugs. From a total of 235 half milk samples with CMT scores of 2 or above from 366 dairy goats distributed throughout Jeonnam province, microorganisms were isolated from 198 (83.5%) samples either singly (99.0%) or in combination (1.0%). The most prevalent microorganism was the coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp., (44.4%, n=88) followed by Staphylococcus aureus (24.2%, n=48), Escherichia coli (11.1%, n=22) and Streptococcus spp. (7.6%, n=15). Isolated bacteria also included Bacillus spp. (2.5%, n=5), Pseudomonas spp. (2.5%, n=5), Micrococcus spp. (1.5%, n=3), Corynebacterium spp. (1.5%, n=3), Enterococcus facium (1.0%, n=2), Morganella morganii (0.5%, n=1) and Streptococcus agalactiae (0.5%, n=1). During the summer season, a high prevalence of all micro-organisms were observed in which Staphylococcus spp. (30.8%), Escherichia coli (8.6%), and Streptococcus spp. (5.6%) were among the most prevalent bacteria isolated. Staphylococcus spp. was also shown to be high in the winter (21.7%). In most samples, the presence of bacterial pathogens in goat milk led to the increase in the total somatic cell count (SCC). Most of the half milk samples of dairy goats with bacterial contamination showed SCC of ≥1×10(6) cells/ml (90.4%). Minor pathogens (11.4%) were more detected from milk samples with SCC of <1×10(6) cells/ml than major pathogens (4.1%), while the major pathogens tended to be higher from samples with SCC of ≥3×10(6) cells/ml. Susceptibility of these bacteria to 12 antimicrobial agents was tested by the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Results indicated that more than 90% of bacteria isolated from CMT 2+ dairy goat half milk samples were susceptible to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, amoxicillin/clavulanic, enrofloxacin and cephalothin while they were resistant to tetracycline (44.7%).

Purpose: VEGF, a potent angiogenic factor, increases vascular permeability and induces the fluid accumulation in the peritoneal and pleural cavities. This study is designed to know whether the VEGF concentration are associated with the formation of cystic fluid of thyroid nodules and the results of treatment. Methods: To know whether thyroid follicular cells produce VEGF, we measured the VEGF concentration in the conditioned medium after primary culture of the normal thyroid follicular cells (NT 1.0). Thirty seven patients, who had visited Ajou University Medical Center, were divided into two groups; group A (n=19) is patients whose cystic nodules disappeared completely with 1 or 2 times fine needle aspirations. In Group B (n=18), the cystic nodules recurred rapidly and required aspiration more than 3 times. Clinical records of patients were analyzed and compared with TSH and VEGF levels in cystic fluids. Results: The VEGF concentration in basal conditioned medium were 8.2⁑1.2 ng/ml in NT 1.0 and 8.2⁑0.6 ng/ml in thyroid cancer cell line (FTC-133). NT 1.0 was not affected by TSH stimulation. Mean concentration of TSH of all cystic fluids was 4.36μIU/ml (0.13∼21.7) and there was no difference between 2 groups. Mean concentration of VEGF of all cystic fluids was 140.7 ng/ml (11.1∼688.8). The VEGF concentration (287.9⁑289.6 ng/ml) in group B was significantly higher than that (104.2⁑97.1 ng/ml) in group A (P<0.05). Conclusion: This study suggests that thyroid follicular cells produce and secrete VEGF, and VEGF is related with the accumulation of cystic fluid in degenerative cysts of thyroid. Cysts with high VEGF concentration promote rapid reaccumulation of the cystic fluid and possibly necessitate operation in selected patients. (Korean J Endocrine Surg 2002;2:25- 30)

Sun-youp Park,Jin Choi1,Jung Hyun Jo,Ju Young Son,Yung-Sik Park,Hong-Suh Yim,Hong-Suh Yim,Hong-Kyu Moon,Young-Ho Bae,Jang-Hyun Park 한국우주과학회 2015 Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences Vol.32 No.3

An algorithm to automatically extract coordinate and time information from optical observation data of geostationary orbit satellites (GEO satellites) or geosynchronous orbit satellites (GOS satellites) is developed. The optical wide-field patrol system is capable of automatic observation using a pre-arranged schedule. Therefore, if this type of automatic analysis algorithm is available, daily unmanned monitoring of GEO satellites can be possible. For data acquisition for development, the COMS1 satellite was observed with 1-s exposure time and 1-m interval. The images were grouped and processed in terms of “action”, and each action was composed of six or nine successive images. First, a reference image with the best quality in one action was selected. Next, the rest of the images in the action were geometrically transformed to fit in the horizontal coordinate system (expressed in azimuthal angle and elevation) of the reference image. Then, these images were median-combined to retain only the possible non-moving GEO candidates. By reverting the coordinate transformation of the positions of these GEO satellite candidates, the final coordinates could be calculated.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of macrophages on growth of human colon cancer cells. The results showed that co-culture of colon cancer cells with macrophages inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells (HCT116 and SW620) depending on the number of macrophages, RAW 264.7 cells, and activated THP-1 cells accompanied by down regulation of pSTAT3 in cancer cells. We also found that expression and release of cancer cell growth inhibitory cytokines, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) and IL-10, was increased in macrophages. Blocking of the STAT3 pathway with specific inhibitor and siRNA of STAT3 abolished the growth of colon cancer cells and expression of IL-1ra and IL-10. In addition, neutralization of IL-1ra and IL-10 with antibodies resulted in reversal of macrophage-induced inhibition of cancer cell growth. These data showed that IL-1ra and IL-10 released from macrophages inhibit growth of colon cancer cells through inhibition of the STAT3 pathway

Purpose: Modified radical neck dissections (MRND) in papillary thyroid cancer surgery usually leave a long incision in the neck, causing cosmetic problems. We introduce a new surgical approach to MRND, with minimal lateral extension of transverse collar incisions, using the Iron-Intern. Methods: Between Jan 2008 and Dec 2008, 135 patients with papillary thyroid cancer who had undergone MRND were enrolled in this study. Total thyroidectomy and central node dissection with Kocker transverse collar incision with minimal additional lateral extension were performed before MRND. MRND were performed including level II, III, IV and V. Among 135 patients, we performed MRND with the Iron-Intern in 70 patients (Group I) and 65 patients who had MRND performed without the Iron-Intern (Group II) were included as a control group. In Group I, the Iron-Intern, with some modifications, was applied during the dissection of the level II area. The postoperative outcomes of the patients were analyzed and compared retrospectively. Results: The median hospital stay was significantly lower in Group I compared to Group II (P=0.003). The median operation time was significantly higher in Group I than Group II (P=0.002). The median numbers of harvested central and lateral lymph nodes were 10, 29 (group I) and 8, 23 (group II), respectively (P=0.073, P=0.148). Median levothyroxine off thyroglobulin levels were 1.2 and 1.8 in Group I and II, respectively (P=0.110). Conclusion: MRND, with minimal lateral extension using the Iron-Intern, can be easily and safely performed, leaving only minor scars in the neck.

( Joo Hyun Lim ),( Dong Ho Lee ),( Cheol Min Shin ),( Na Yung Kim ),( Young Soo Park ),( Hyun Chae Jung ),( 1in Sung Song ) 대한내과학회 2011 대한내과학회 추계학술대회 Vol.2011 No.1

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in Korea and the incidence of which is great in elderly patients. However, not much is known about elderly gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the specific features of gastric cancer in elderly patients. Methods: We reviewed medical records of 1107 patients who had undergone radical gastrectomy for gastric cancers between June 2005 and December 2009. All the patients were divided into two groups: Non-elderly group aged under 65 (n=676) and elderly group aged 65 and above (n=431). Results: There were more symptomatic patients among elderly group compared with non-elderly group (54.2% vs. 62.1%; p=0.009). Comorbidity was more prevalent in the elderly group (29.6% vs. 61.9%; p<0.001). The elderly group showed higher frequency of elevated tumor markers (CEA: 4.9% vs. 8.7%; p=0.041), CA19-9: 6.1% vs. 13.2%; p=0.001) and advanced diseases (42.5% vs. 49.4%, p=0.023).There were no significant differences in N stage (62.4% vs. 58.2%; p=0.164) or H. pylori status (63.6% vs. 57.5%; p=0.153) between the two groups. More cancers were located in lower third among the elderly group (45.1% vs 51.3%; p=0.045). The elderly group had more patients with Lauren intestinal type (40.7% vs. 58.2%; p<0.001) and well (8.0% vs. 13.7%; p=0.002) or moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma (29.6% vs. 44.1%; p<0.001). Rate of complication did not differ between the two groups (6.1% vs. 8.1%; p=0.187). Microsatellite instability (p<0.001) and p53 overexpression (p<0.001) were more frequent in the elderly group. Conclusion: Elderly gastric cancer showed a tendency of being diagnosed at more advanced stage with symptoms. However, it was related to pathologic features known for favorable prognosis except for p53 overexpression. Also surgery in elderly was as tolerable as in young patients. Thus we recommend to consider surgery more frequently for elderly patients with operable gastric cancers.
