복합 모반 주위에 발생한 Halo Dermatitis 1예

조영훈,이진욱,박상건,이민걸 대한피부과학회 2003 大韓皮膚科學會誌 Vol.41 No.9

Halo dermatitis was first described as a halo-shaped eczematous change around a nevocellular nevus. Howeyer, other cases developed around various kinds of lesions including seborrheic keratosis or lentigo were reported later on, so it is now considered not to be specific for melanocytes or nevus cells. It has never been reported to be associated with regression of central lesion, in contrast to halo nevus. We report a case of halo dermatitis developed around a compound nevus in a 20-year-old male patient. On histopathologic examination, the central lesion was a compound nevus and the surrounding lesion was consistent with chronic eczematous dermatitis. (Korean J Dermatol 2003;41(9) : 1261~1263)

Background: Circulating inflammatory cytokines and markers are increased in patients with psoriasis. Recent studies have shown that a higher red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with disease activity in various disorders. Objectives: Our objective was to investigate whether RDW is increased in psoriasis patients, and to evaluate its association with disease severity. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of psoriasis patients seen in single hospital in Korea. Demographic data, hematologic parameters and disease severity were collected. Results: A total of 261 psoriasis patients and 102 healthy controls were included in our study. The RDW value was significantly increased in psoriasis patients compared to healthy control (p=0.037). Compared to mild psoriasispatients (PASI<7), moderate to severe patients (PASI≥7) showed significantly higher RDW values (p=0.044). RDW did not show significant correlation with PASI (p=0.358). When patients were divided into two groups according to their RDW value (<14.6% and ≥14.6%), the mean value of PASI was not significantly different (p=0.219). Conclusion: Patients with psoriasis showed increased RDW values compared to healthy controls. It was also higher in moderate and severe disease group than mild group. RDW values were increased in psoriasis patients and it is possible that RDW value reflects the inflammatory status of psoriasis, but this needs to be evaluated in near future.

<P> Lee, D.-G., Park, K. W., An, J. Y., Sohn, Y. G., Ha, J. K., Kim, H. Y., Bae, D. W., Lee, K. H., Kang, N. J., Lee, B.-H., Kang, K.-Y. and Lee, J. J. 2011. Proteomics analysis of salt-induced leaf proteins in two rice germplasms with different salt sensitivity. Can. J. Plant Sci. 91: 337-349. This study was conducted to investigate salt-stress-related physiological responses and proteomics changes in the leaves of two rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars. Shoot growth and water content of rice leaves were more severely reduced in Dalseongaengmi-44 than in Dongjin under salt stress. The salt-sensitive Dalseongaengmi-44 exhibited a greater increase in sodium ion accumulation in its leaves than the salt tolerant Dongjin. Comparative analysis of the rice leaf proteins using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DGE) revealed that a total of 23 proteins were up-regulated under salt stress. Based on matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry and/or electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry analyses, the 23 protein spots were found to represent 16 different proteins. Ten of the identified proteins were previously reported to be salt-responsive proteins, while six, class III peroxidase 29 precursor, beta-1,3-glucanase precursor, OSJNBa0086A10.7 (putative transcription factor), putative chaperon 21 precursor, Rubisco activase small isoform precursor and drought-induced S-like ribonuclease, were novel salt-induced proteins. Under salt stress, fragmentation was increased in several proteins containing the Rubisco large chain. The results of these physiological and proteomics analyses provide useful information that can lead to a better understanding of the molecular basis of salt-stress responses in rice. </P>

Development of a minipig model for lung injury induced by a single high-dose radiation exposure and evaluation with thoracic computed tomography

Lee, Jong-Geol,Park, Sunhoo,Bae, Chang-Hwan,Jang, Won-Suk,Lee, Sun-Joo,Lee, Dal Nim,Myung, Jae Kyung,Kim, Cheol Hyeon,Jin, Young-Woo,Lee, Seung-Sook,Shim, Sehwan Oxford University Press 2016 JOURNAL OF RADIATION RESEARCH Vol.57 No.3

<P>Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) due to nuclear or radiological exposure remains difficult to treat because of insufficient clinical data. The goal of this study was to establish an appropriate and efficient minipig model and introduce a thoracic computed tomography (CT)-based method to measure the progression of RILI. Göttingen minipigs were allocated to control and irradiation groups. The most obvious changes in the CT images after irradiation were peribronchial opacification, interlobular septal thickening, and lung volume loss. Hounsfield units (HU) in the irradiation group reached a maximum level at 6 weeks and decreased thereafter, but remained higher than those of the control group. Both lung area and cardiac right lateral shift showed significant changes at 22 weeks post irradiation. The white blood cell (WBC) count, a marker of pneumonitis, increased and reached a maximum at 6 weeks in both peripheral blood and bronchial alveolar lavage fluid. Microscopic findings at 22 weeks post irradiation were characterized by widening of the interlobular septum, with dense fibrosis and an increase in the radiation dose–dependent fibrotic score. Our results also showed that WBC counts and microscopic findings were positively correlated with the three CT parameters. In conclusion, the minipig model can provide useful clinical data regarding RILI caused by the adverse effects of high-dose radiotherapy. Peribronchial opacification, interlobular septal thickening, and lung volume loss are three quantifiable CT parameters that can be used as a simple method for monitoring the progression of RILI.</P>

Background Skin is an essential outer barrier and supports the growth of commensal microorganisms that protects a host from the ofense of foreign toxic organisms. With the rapid development of next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based applications, skin microbiome research for facial health care has reached industry growth, such as therapy and cosmetic product development. Despite the acceleration of skin microbiome research, experimental standardization protocol has not yet been established in the facial site and method of sampling. Objective Thus, we aimed to investigate the diferences in microbial composition at each facial site (cheek, mouth, forehead, and entire face) using comprehensive microbiome analysis. Methods Twelve specimens from three men (four specimens per one person) were collected. The hypervariable regions (V3–V4) of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene were targeted for 16S amplicon library construction and classifcation of bacterial taxonomy. Skin microbial composition for all specimens was investigated, and the diferences site-by-site in skin microbial composition were analyzed and evaluated by the various statistical tests. Results We were able to validate the independent correlation between the skin microbiome composition and the facial sites. The cheek site showed the highest alpha-diversity in richness and evenness scores compared to the forehead and mouth. The cheek and mouth sites showed a positive correlation (R2 value>0.93) with the entire face, while the forehead sites were negatively correlated (R2 value<0.2). Given the relative abundance based on statistical correlation analysis, we estimated that the cheek site could be considered an optimal topical site to replace the entire face. Conclusion Our study suggests that skin microbiome profling of four facial sites confrms that the cheek shows the most similar skin fora with the entire face. This study would be informative for preventing bias caused by sampling methods before researching and understanding skin cosmetics development or skin diseases.

Effects of Low and High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acids on Peridural Fibrosis and Inflammation in Lumbar Laminectomized Rats

Lee, Jun-Geol,Lee, Sang-Chul,Kim, Yong-Chul,Lim, Young-Jin,Shin, Jae-Hyuck,Kim, Jae-Hun,Park, Sang-Hyun,Choi, Yun-Ra,Sim, Woo-Seog The Korean Pain Society 2011 The Korean Journal of Pain Vol.24 No.4

Background: Postlaminectomy peridural fibrosis is inevitable. Some studies have compared and identified the effects of high molecular weight hyaluronic acids (HMWHA) and low molecular weight hyaluronic acids (LMWHA) on peridural fibrosis in postlaminectomy animal models. However, no studies have been found that compare pain behaviors between hyaluronic acids or among hyaluronic acids and other solid materials. The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between pain-related behaviors and histopathologic changes in laminectomized rats using various peridurally administered materials. Methods: Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats, laminectomized at the L5 and L6 levels, were divided into four groups: group C, laminectomy only; group L, laminectomy and LMWHA application; group H, laminectomy and HMWHA application; group F, laminectomy and fat interposition. Pain behaviors were checked before, 3 days, 1 week, and 3 weeks after surgery. Histopathological changes were checked at the L5 level 3 weeks after the surgery. Results: The 50% withdrawal thresholds in groups L and H were higher than that in groups C and F three days after laminectomy (P < 0.05). The paw withdrawal time did not change among the groups and in each group during the study period. Peridural fibrosis in group F was significantly lower than in the other groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Hyaluronic acids significantly reduced mechanical allodynia but not thermal hyperalgesia. Peridural fibrosis did not show any correlation with pain behaviors. There have been limited studies on the correlation between peridural fibrosis and pain behavioral change, which should be verified by further studies.

UNANTICIPATED MONEY , OUTPUT , EMPLOYMENT AND PRICES IN A DEVELOING ECONOMY : THE KOREAN CASE

LEE, YOUNG GEOL,ZILBERFARB, BEN ZION 한국국제경제학회 1993 International Economic Journal Vol.7 No.2

This paper examines the effect of unanticipated money on output, unemployment and prices in Korea. The empirical results tend to reject the policy ineffectiveness proposition (PIP) in most cases. They show that both anticipated and unanticipated money affect output and prices, in contrast with the PIP. Mixed results are obtained for the effect of monetary variables on unemployment. The statistical results show that the regular OLS two step estimates yield t values which are upward biased by 0-27% as compared with the consistent estimates of the variance-covariance matrix that are obtained in this study.

A sequela of primary growth center of human mandible during postnatal period

Young Joon Lee,Sang Shin Lee,Byoung Geol Park,Yeon Sook Kim,Suk Keun Lee,Hyock Soo Moon,Je Geun Chi 대한구강악안면병리학회 2003 대한구강악안면병리학회지 Vol.27 No.1

The primary growth center (MdPGC) of human fetal mandible was conspicuously distinguished in the soft X-ray view of fetal mandibles.1) As the peripheral adaptive growth of mandible advanced during the postnatal period, the MdPGC became overshadowed by condensed cortical bone. However, in the well-processed radiograms of adult mandible a condensed radiopaque image, measuring 0.5-1.0 cm in diameter, can be observed below the apex of first premolar. In this study we aimed to trace a sclerotic sequela of mandibular primary growth center during postnatal period. Panoramic radiograms of two hundreds adults and soft X-ray views of thirty dry mandible were analyzed by statistical methods. The adult MdPGC was clearly distinguishable from the mental foramen. The area of MdPGC was seldom changed in the older persons, even in the edentulous mandibles. Additionally, the benign lesions of odontogenic cysts and tumors hardly destroyed the original structure of MdPGC, while the malignant tumors of squamous cell carcinoma and metastatic cancer rapidly destroyed and resolved the radiopaque area of the MdPGC.
