Chronic ethanol consumption leads to memory impairment and also induces brain damage. The hippocampus has been particularly regarded as a possible target organ of alcoholic intoxication, since this structure plays a prominent function in memory processes. Cordyceps has been used as a traditional medicine in Asian countries for a long time. Different types of Cordyceps extract were reported to have various pharmacological activities including anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and immune modulatory effects. Guem Chung Cho is an artificial cultivated Cordyceps, and was supplied from GCordy (Seoul, Korea). Ethanol extract of Cordycep (50 g) was made by rotary evaporate, and resulting powder 8.29 g was obtained (yield 17%). In the present study, we investigated the effects of ethanol extract of Geum Chung Cho on short-term memory, cell proliferation and apoptosis in the hippocampus of ethanol-treated gerbils. The gerbils were divided into 5 groups (n = 10 in each group): Control group, alcohol-treated group, alcohol-treated and 0.001 mg/kg Geum Chung Cho-applied group, alcohol-treated and 0.01 mg/kg Geum Chung Cho-applied group, and alcohol-treated and 0.1 mg/kg Geum Chung Cho-applied group. Gerbils in the alcohol-treated groups were orally administered ethanol (1 g/kg) once a day for 2 weeks. Gerbils in the Guem Chung Cho-applied groups were orally administered Guem Chung Cho extract at each dosage 1 hour before ethanol consumption. Our results revealed that consumption of alcohol for 2 weeks deteriorated short-term memory, induced apoptosis, and inhibited cell proliferation, and reduced expressions of brain-derived neurotrophic (BDNF) and tyrosine kinase B (TrkB). However, Guem Chung Cho treatment alleviated alcohol-induced short-term memory impairment through enhancing cell proliferation and BDNF expression with inhibiting apoptosis in the hippocampus. Guem Chung Cho showed maximum effects at 0.1 mg/kg. Based on these results, alcohol extract of Guem Chung Cho may provide therapeutic value for the treatment of chronic alcohol-inducted brain injury. This study was supported by GCordy company.

N/A The MAG3 is a tubular excreting radiopharmaceutical for renal image. We synthe-sized benzoyl MAG3 (Bz-MAG3) and made a kit for labeling with Tc-99m. We checked the labeling effeciency of Tc-99m labeled MAG3 and biodistribution. Labeling efficiency was checked by TLC- SG (acetonitrile/H2O=2/1). After injecting of 1 mCi of Tc-99M-MAG3 to ICR-mice, Tmax(min), T1/2(min) were obtained in the renogram. Sequencial images (30sec, 2min, 5min, 10min, 15min, 20min) of TC-99m-MAG3 were compared with those of commercial Tc-99m-DTPA (Du Pont Merck Pharmaceutical Co.) kit. 1) The Rf value of synthesized Tc-99m-MAG3 was 0.78 and labeling efficiency was 97.5±1.9% (n=10). 2) The dynamic images of the Tc-99m-MAG3 were better than those of the Tc-99m-DTPA. 3) The Tmax(min.) and T1/2(min.) of Tc-99m-MAG3 (n=10) were 1.5±0.5 (left), 1.4±0.4(right), and 4.3±1.4 (left), 4.8±2.0 (right), respectivel. The Tmax(min.) and T1/2(min.) of Tc-99m-DTPA (n=7) were 2.7±1.6 (left), 2.7±1.6 right), and 3.8±1.7 (left), 4.5±2.7 (right), respectively. The quaility of image and labeling efficiency of the synthesized Bz-MAG3 kit were excellent, that it was supposed to be used in routine clinical work.

<P>As a member of imitation switch (ISWI) family in ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factors, RSF complex consists of SNF2h ATPase and Rsf-1. Although it has been reported that SNF2h ATPase is recruited to DNA damage sites (DSBs) in a poly(ADP-ribosyl) polymerase 1 (PARP1)-dependent manner in DNA damage response (DDR), the function of Rsf-1 is still elusive. Here we show that Rsf-1 is recruited to DSBs confirmed by various cellular analyses. Moreover, the initial recruitment of Rsf-1 and SNF2h to DSBs shows faster kinetics than that of γH2AX after micro-irradiation. Signals of Rsf-1 and SNF2h are retained over 30 min after micro-irradiation, whereas γH2AX signals are gradually reduced at 10 min. In addition, Rsf-1 is accumulated at DSBs in ATM-dependent manner, and the putative pSQ motifs of Rsf-1 by ATM are required for its accumulation at DSBs. Furtheremore, depletion of Rsf-1 attenuates the activation of DNA damage checkpoint signals and cell survival upon DNA damage. Finally, we demonstrate that Rsf-1 promotes homologous recombination repair (HRR) by recruiting resection factors RPA32 and Rad51. Thus, these findings reveal a new function of chromatin remodeler Rsf-1 as a guard in DNA damage checkpoints and homologous recombination repair.</P>

The study was carried out to investigate the effects of dietary carotenids and β-carotene on the hematological changes caused by alcohol administration into the rats. The results were analyzed using several statistical methods; SPSS computer program for measuring the mean values and standard deviations, one way ANOVA for the test of significance, Duncan method for post HOC multiple comparison, and Pearson method for measuring the correlation coefficient. The following are the conclusion from those statistical analysis. 1. ALB and TB were shown to have the most significant correlation among the blood compositions f개m the basic dietary groups. 2. BUN and CHO were shown to have the most positive correlation among those from the carrot-fed groups. 3. CA and AG were shown positively correlated, and CHO and IP negatively correlated, respectively among those from the cheese-fed groups. 4. AP was shown positively correlated among those from the alcohol-administrated groups. 5. CHO, CA and BUN were shown positively correlated, and CA was negatively correlated among those from the β-Carotene -fed groups. 6. TB and TP were not affected by the correlations between the blood composition from all the experimental groups.

Gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from the cell extract of H. pylori. The purified enzyme consisted of heavy and light subunits with molecular weights of 38 kDa and 21 kDa, respectively. N-terminal amino acid sequence of heavy and light subunits revealed that H. pylori GGT was processed into 3 parts for a signal peptide of 27 amino acid residues, a heavy subunit of 352 residues, and a light subunit of 188 residues during translation. The reaction rate for hydrolysis of ${\gamma}$-GpNA was 84.4 ${\mu}mol/min$ per milligram of protein, and that for the ${\gamma}$-glutamyl transfer from ${\gamma}$-GpNA to gly-gly was 23.8 ${\mu}mol/min$ per milligram of protein. The apparent Km values of H. pylori GGT for ${\gamma}$-glutamyl compounds were on the order of $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-4}$ M and those for acceptor peptides and amino acids were on the order of $10^{-1}$ to $10^{-2}$ M. The GGT protein kept approximately 80% of the initial enzymatic activity on incubation at $60^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. The optimum temperature and pH for reactions of both hydrolysis and transpeptidation were $40^{\circ}C$ and 9.0, respectively. The transpeptidation and hydrolysis reactions catalyzed by H. pylori GGT were strongly inhibited by L-Gln and moderately inhibited by L-Ala, L-Ser, ${\beta}$-chloro-L-Ala, and L-Glu. These results demonstrated that the biochemical properties of H. pylori GGT are different from those of other bacterial GGTs. Further, H. pylori GGT might degrade glutathione in the gastric mucous layer of humans if the enzyme could be secreted in the bacterial niches.

목적: To determine the differences in pregnancy outcomes among cases treated by vaginal progesterone, intramuscular(IM) progesterone and conservative management in twin pregnancies with a short cervix. 방법: This is a retrospective study of 273 twin pregnancies complicated by a short cervix(<2.5cm) who delivered from 2007 to 2016 in CHA Bundang Medical Center. Women who received cervical cerclage were excluded. Treatment groups included 1) group I; conservative management group without progesterone treatment(n=174), 2) group II; vaginal progesterone suppository group(n=30), 3) group III; IM progesterone injection group(n=69). Primary outcomes were spontaneous birth at <28, 32, 34, or 36 weeks of gestational age(GA). The secondary outcomes included hospitalized for tocolytics or antenatal corticosteroids, small for gestational age and low APGAR score(<7) at 5 min. 결과: Preterm birth before 36 weeks of GA was different among 3 groups(29.3%[51/174] vs.20.0%[6/30] vs.43.5%[30/69], p=0.034). Low APGAR score(<7) at 5min was significantly different among 3 groups(7.8%[27/348] vs.5.0%[3/60] vs.15.2%[21/138], p=0.018). After multivariate analysis, preterm birth(<36 weeks) occurred more frequently in group III than group I(aOR 6.90 95%CI:1.06-45.04, p=0.044). However, there was no significant difference between group II and III. Meanwhile, there were more cases with low APGAR score(<7) at 5 min in group III than group I(aOR 6.58 95%CI:1.43-30.21, p=0.015) and group II(aOR 17.04 95%CI:1.56-185.74, p=0.020) after multivariate analysis. 결론: In twin pregnancies complicated by short cervical length, IM progesterone group showed significantly greater occurrence of preterm birth before 36 weeks of GA in comparison with vaginal progesterone group and conservative management group.

Background: Many critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) experience sleep disruption and delirium. For the sedation of these patients, dexmedetomidine is one of commonly recommended sedatives because of its pharmacokinetic merit. This pilot study was undertaken to identify the effects of dexmedetomidine for sleep and delirium in critically ill patients. Methods: This prospective study was conducted in medical ICU of a tertiary referral hospital. Dexmedetomidine was administered with the maintenance dose of 0.4-0.7μg/ kg/hr and adjusted by Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale score of 0 to -2. Portable polysomnography was performed in the ICU over 24 hour to assess the quantity and quality of sleep. The confusion assessment method for ICU was used for detection of delirium. Results: Total 9 patients were enrolled. Median age was 77.0 (Range: 61-90) and 3 patients experienced delirium. Median total sleep time was 283 (IQR: 56-739) min. The majority of sleep was stage 1 (median 208 [IQR: 56-356] min) and 2 (median 75 [IQR: 7-396] min) with absent REM and stage 3 sleep. The dose of dexmedetomidine was not associated with total sleep time, stage 1 and stage 2 sleep (all P>0.05). However, the patients with delirium was administered higher dose of dexmedetomidine than ones without delirium (0.67μg/kg/hr vs 0.33μg/kg/hr, P=0.006). Conclusions: Although proper sedation was met with dexmedetomidine, the quantity and quality of sleep in critically ill patients were poor. Further study is required for the promotion of good sleep and the prevention of delirium in ICU patients.
