Objective: We inversigated Small Heterodimer Partner (SHP) gene mutation in Korean Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) patients. SHP protein regulates the activity of nuclear receptors which regulate the cellular development and differentiation. Recently, the mutation of SHP gene was found in the obesity and diabetes patients in Japanese group, and suggested that its mutation may involved in pathogenic mechanism of PCOS. Methods: This study was performed in 20 PCOS patients and 20 normal women. The DNAs were extracted from the peripheral bloods, and amplified at each exon (1 and 2) of SHP gene by PCR method. Subsequently, each PCR product was digested with the restriction enzyme indicated below for studying restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). After enzyme digestion, the results of RFLP were compared PCOS patients with control women to find any sequence variation. Results: We examined 9 regions of exon 1 with Msp I, Pvu II, Dde I and 3 regions of exon 2 with Pst I, Dde I. There is no heterozygous or homozygous mutation in patients and control women at these restriction sites. Conclusion: The genetic analysis at our restriction sites in the SHP gene did not show any genetic variation in Korean PCOS patients. Our PCR-RFLP analysis was not covered the entire SHP gene (68 bp/1,006 bp), we need to further analysis of the entire SHP gene.

A study has performed in terms of fluid dynamics to identify the wall thinning generated in the main feedwater isolation valve body of a nuclear power plant. To review the relations between flow characteristics and the wall thinning induced by flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) were performed. The local velocities according to the analysis results were compared with the distribution of the measured wall thickness by ultrasonic tests. Also, profile of static pressure measured at lower body of MFIV model is produced to compare with wall thickness of it. These results provide a good match to those of the previous studies - locations colliding vertically against components undergo severe wall thinning. These results may be utilized to the design modification and the wall thinning management for main feedwater isolation valves for preventing the wall thinning degradation.

Objective : To evaluate factor XII deficiency in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion and its relation to aPTT. Material and Method: Factor XII was analyzed by clotting method. Results: Of 70 patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion, there were 35 cases of factor XII deficiency. Among them, there were only 3 cases of prolonged aPTT. Conclusions: It is still unclear whether factor XII deficiency is related to recurrent spontaneous abortion. Molecular approaches should be used to understand further the causal relationship. But based on this result, in the workup of patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion, factor XII should be included. aPTT is not likely to represent the abnormality of factor XII.

Objective : Previous studies have suggested that hyperhomocysteinemia and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR C677T) mutations are associated with increased risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). Recently, a second site polymorphism in MTHFR, 1298A-->C, which changes a glutamic acid into an alanine residue, was shown to be associated with a decreased enzyme activity. We tested whether the variant alleles of MTHFR C677T and A1298C are risk factor (biomarker) for RSA. Materials and Methods: We analyzed DNA from a case-control study in the Korean DNA was extracted from blood samples of 118 patients with RSA and 123 healthy fertile patients as the controls. MTHFR variant alleles were determined by a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Results: We found no evidence for an association between 677TT genotype and risk of RSA (OR=1.95, 95% CI=$0.84{\sim}4.50$, p=0.12). However, the MTHFR 1298AC (OR=0.36, 95% CI=$0.20{\sim}0.63$, p=0.0004) and 1298AC+CC (OR=0.35, 95% CI=$0.20{\sim}0.61$, p=0.0002) genotypes were lower among 118 RSA cases compared with 123 controls, conferring a 2.8-fold decrease in risk of RSA, respectively. Moreover, the combined genotypes of MTHFR 677CC/1298AC (OR=0.30, 95% CI=$0.10{\sim}0.88$, p=0.029) and 677CT/1298AC (OR=0.77, 95% CI=$0.60{\sim}0.99$, p=0.043) also showed significantly lower risk than those with MTHFR 677CC/1298AA type. Conclusion: MTHFR 1298AC, MTHFR 677CC/1298AC and 677CT/1298AC genotypes may represent genetic markers for the protection of RSA at least in Korean women.

This study investigated online newsrooms of Korean companies targeting international media. Results revealed that the majority of the Web sites offering information in English maintained news rooms that provided media-specific information. However, many news rooms used unspecific labels that did not seem relevant for the media public. Almost all news rooms analyzed in this study were linked from the front page of Web sites, thereby enabling international journalists to quickly find media materials with minimal effort. However, most news rooms did not list contact information at all and only a few news rooms identified a PR practitioner names as a contact. Finally, the higher-ranked companies in revenue and reputation had better quality news rooms than the lower-ranked companies. That is, higher-ranked company news rooms were likely to have more news items and were more likely to list contact information than were lower-ranked news rooms. Overall, it appears that Korean companies did not make full use of their Web sites as an international communication tool. Most prominently, the news rooms lacked interactivity.

목 적: X 염색체 불활성화는 여성과 남성 사이에 X 염색체의 유전자 발현 유지를 위해 여성의 X 염색체 중 하나가 불활성화 되는 현상이다. 이러한 X 염색체 불활성화는 해독되지 않는 XIST 유전자에 의해 조절된다. XIST 유전자는 오직 불활성화된 X 염색체 에서만 발현되고, 활성화된 X 염색체 에서는 발현되지 않는다. 따라서 체세포에서 활성화된 X 염색체의 XIST 유전자는 promoter 부분이 메틸화 되어있고, 불활성화된 X 염색체에서는 메틸화가 거의 되어 있지 않다. 연구방법: 본 연구에서는 정상 여성과 정상 남성의 XIST 유전자의 promoter와 5'-end 지역의 메틸화 차이를 측정하기 위해 정상여성과 남성의 혈액에서 DNA를 추출하여 파이로시퀀싱 (Pyrosequencing) 방법을 통해 XIST 유전자의 총 8부분의 CpG 영역 (-1696, -1679, -1475, -1473, -1469, +947, +956, +971)을 분석하였다. 결 과: 총 8부분의 CpG 영역을 분석한 결과, promoter 부분인 CpG 1-5 영역 (-1696, -1679, -1475, -1473, -1469)에서는 여성과 남성의 메틸화 정도에 차이가 없었다. 그러나 5'-end 부분인 CpG6-8 영역 (+947, +956, +971)에서는 여성이 45.2% 49.9% 44.2%, 남성이 90.6%, 96.7%, 87.8%으로 메틸화 정도가 차이를 나타냈다. 결 론: 따라서 본 연구에 사용한 방법은 XIST 유전자의 메틸화 패턴의 차이를 기존의 방법보다 신속하고 정확하게 분석할 수 있다는 장점이 있기 때문에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다. Objective: X inactivation is the silencing one of the two X chromosomes in female mammals for gene dosage on the X-chromosome between female and male. X inactivation is controlled by X inactive-specific transcript (XIST) gene, untranslated RNA. XIST is expressed only from the inactive X (Xi), not expressed from the active X (Xa). The Xist promoter is methylated on the silent Xist allele on the Xa in somatic cells, and less methylated on the Xist-expressing Xi. We investigated the difference of XIST methylation pattern of the promoter and 5'-region of XIST from male (XY) and female (XX) subjects. Methods: The direct quantification of XIST methylation is required for clinical application of normal XX and XY blood. Methylation percentage of eight CpG sites (-1696, -1679, -1475, -1473, -1469, +947, +956, +971) of XIST gene were diagnosed by pyrosequencing. Results: We directly quantitated the methylation percentage of the promoter and 5'-end of XIST by pyrosequencing. The average methylation percentages at CpG6-8 sites (+947, +956, +971) were 45.2% at CpG6, 49.9% at CpG7, and 44.2% at CpG8 from normal female and normal male were 90.6%, 96.7%, 87.8%, respectively. Nether CpG 1-5sites (-1696, -1679, -1475, -1473, -1469) had any effect on XX and XY. Conclusion: This method is sensitive for quantifying the small percentage change in the methylation status of XIST, and may be used for diagnosis.

Objectives: Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) mutation are commonly associated with hyperhomocysteinemia, and through their defects in homocysteine metabolism, they have been implicated as a risk factor for recurrent spontaneous abortion. Recent report describe that 28-bp tandem repeat polymorphism in thymidylate synthase enhancer region (TSER) that influence enzyme activity would affect plasma homocysteine level. We have investigated the relationship between TSER genotype and plasma homocysteine level in 54 patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion. Methods: Plasma homocysteine level was measured by fluorescent polarizing immunoassay. MTHFR mutation (C677T and A1298C) was identified by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay and TSER mutation was analyzed by PCR method. The data were analyzed using the program SAS 8.2 for Windows. Results: Total homocysteine level was significantly higher in MTHFR 677TT genotype ($9.80{\pm}3.87{\mu}mol/L$) than MTHFR 677CC genotype ($8.14{\pm}1.74{\mu}mol/L$) in Korean patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (p=0.0143). However, the plasma homocysteine level was not significantly different in the MTHFR 1298AA ($8.42{\pm}2.65{\mu}mol/L$) and 1298CC ($6.09{\pm}0.32{\mu}mol/L$; p=0.2058) and, TSER 2R2R ($8.61{\pm}1.68{\mu}mol/L$) and 3R3R ($8.05{\pm}2.81{\mu}mol/L$; p=0.9319) mutant genotypes, respectively. In this study, we found the combination effects of TSER and MTHFR C677T genotypes. Plasma homocysteine levels were the highest ($11.47{\pm}4.66{\mu}mol/L$) in individuals with TSER 3R3R ($8.05{\pm}2.81{\mu}mol/L$) and MTHFR 677TT ($9.80{\pm}3.87{\mu}mol/L$) genotypes. Individuals with a combination of both TSER 2R2R/2R3R and MTHFR 677CC/CT genotypes ($7.69{\pm}1.77{\mu}mol/L$) had lower plasma homocysteine levels than TSER 2R2R ($8.61{\pm}1.68{\mu}mol/L$) and MTHR 677CC ($8.14{\pm}1.74{\mu}mol/L$) genotypes, respectively. The effect of MTHFR polymorphism in the homocysteine metabolism appears to be stronger than that of TSER polymorphism. Conclusion: Although statistically not significant, we found the elevated level of plasma homocysteine in combined genotypes with TSER and MTHFR (C677T and A1298C) in Korean patients with unexplained habitual abortion. In this study, we reported the possibility that TSER polymorphism is a genetic determinant of plasma homocysteine levels in the Korean patients as well as MTHFR C677T polymorphism. A large prospective study is needed to verify our findings.

살모넬라 타이피무리움 JOL389와 χ3339는 마우스에 강한 독력을 가진 균주들이며, χ8554는 χ3339로부터 유도 되었다. 고스트 카세트를 운반하는 플라스미드 pMMP184가 제조된 후에, BALB/c 마우스의 구강 경로를 경유하여 투여되었다. 총 IgG의 함량 변화는 χ8554 고스트 세포의 부스팅으로 발현 함량이 낮게 나타났지만, 3차 접종의 2주 경과 후, 6주차에서 증가되는 양상을 보였다. 그러나, 혼합 백신 그룹인 JOL389/χ8554 그룹에서는 총 IgG의 함량이 일차 접종 후 2주차부터 상승되는 경향을 보였고, 추가접종이 진행되므로써 많은 상승 폭을 나타내었다. 총 IgG의 함량은 백신 접종 후 10주차에서 χ8554그룹에 비교하여 JOL389/χ8554은 8배 이상 높은 것으로 관찰되었다. IgG1, IgG2a, 분비IgA의 함량은 백신화 후 4주차에서 상승되었다. 독력 살모넬라 타이피무리움 χ3339로 도전실험결과, χ8554 [pMMP184]과 χ8554 [pMMP184]/JOL389은 대조구에 비교하여 50% 이상의 보호효과가 관찰되었다. 이들 결과는 χ8554 [pMMP184]/JOL389은 χ8554 [pMMP184]보다 더 높은 면역 응답을 유도하는 것이 가능한 것으로 추정된다. Salmonella Typhimurium (ST) JOL389 and χ3339 are strong virulent strains against mouse. ST χ8554 is derived by deletion of the asd gene from ST χ3339. Plasmid pMMP184 carrying a ghost cassette was transformed into ST χ8554, and ST χ8554 ghost cells were prepared and administrated via the oral route to BALB/c mice. Change in the amount of total IgG was not elicited to boosting of single ST χ8554 ghost cells, but the content was increased from 6 weeks after the 3<SUP>rd</SUP> administration. However, when the ST JOL389 ghost cells is administered together with ST χ8554 ghost cells, the content of total IgG was increased in 2 weeks post primary administration. It was found that the content of total IgG of the group mixed with ST JOL389 ghost cells showed an increased value of 8 times or more at 10 weeks when compared with the group of ST χ8554 ghost cells. The content of IgG1, IgG2a, and sIgA in both groups increased from 4 weeks postprimary administration. As a challenge test of virulent ST χ3339, χ8554 (pMMP184) and χ8554 (pMMP184)/JOL389 ghost cell groups showed protection of 50% or more when compared to the control group. These results suggest that the preparation of combined ghost cells from a strong virulent ST increases immunity more than a single strain.
