<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>The RB-E2F1 pathway is an important mechanism of cell-cycle control, and deregulation of this pathway is one of the key factors contributing to tumorigenesis. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and Cyclin D have been known to increase in aggressive thyroid cancer. However, there has been no study to investigate effects of a selective CDK 4/6 inhibitor, Ribociclib (LEE011), in thyroid cancer. Performing Western blotting, we found that RB phosphorylation and the expression of Cyclin D are significantly higher in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) cell lines as well as anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) cell lines, compared with normal thyroid cell line and follicular thyroid cancer cell line. LEE011 dose-dependently inhibited RB phosphorylation and also decreased the expressions of its target genes such as <I>FOXM1, Cyclin A1,</I> and <I>Myc</I> in ATC. Furthermore, LEE011 induced cell cycle arrest in G0-G1 phase and cell apoptosis, and inhibited cell proliferation in ATC. Consistently, oral administration of LEE011 to ATC xenograft models strongly inhibited tumor growth with decreased expressions of pRB, pAKT and Ki-67, and also significantly increased tumor cell apoptosis. Taken together, our data support the rationale for clinical development of the CDK4/6 inhibitor as a therapy for patients with aggressive thyroid cancer.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> pRB and Cyclin D were expressed high in aggressive thyroid cancer. </LI> <LI> LEE011 suppressed pRB and also decreased the expressions of its target genes in ATC. </LI> <LI> LEE011 induced cell cycle G1 arrest and apoptosis, and inhibited cell proliferation. </LI> <LI> LEE011 inhibited in vivo tumor growth with decreased expressions of pRB and Ki-67. </LI> <LI> We could explain the anticancer effects with the RB-E2F pathway. </LI> </UL> </P>

Han-Sam Cho,Tae-Woon Kim,Sang-Seo Park,Mal-Soon Shin,Jae-Min Lee,Eun-Sang Ji,Chang-Ju Kim 한국운동재활학회 2015 한국운동재활학회 학술대회 Vol.2015 No.10

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.

Microbacterium rhizosphaerae sp. nov., isolated from a Ginseng field, South Korea

Cho, S. J.,Lee, S. S. Springer Science + Business Media 2017 Antonie van Leeuwenhoek Vol.110 No.1

<P>A novel Gram-stain positive, aerobic, short rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated strain CHO1(T), was isolated from rhizosphere soil from a ginseng agriculture field. Strain CHO1(T) was observed to form yellow colonies on R2A agar medium. The cell wall peptidoglycan was found to contain alanine, glycine, glutamic acid, d-ornithine and serine. The cell wall sugars were identified as galactose, mannose, rhamnose and ribose. Strain CHO1(T) was found to contain MK-11, MK-12, MK-13 as the predominant menaquinones and anteiso-C-15:0, iso-C-16:0, and anteiso-C-17:0 as the major fatty acids. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphoglycolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and three unidentified glycolipids were found to be present in strain CHO1(T). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain CHO1(T) was found to be closely related to Microbacterium mangrovi DSM 28240(T) (97.81 % similarity), Microbacterium immunditiarum JCM 14034(T) (97.45 %), Microbacterium oryzae JCM 16837(T) (97.33 %) and Microbacterium ulmi KCTC 19363(T) (97.10 %) and to other species of the genus Microbacterium. The DNA G+C content of CHO1(T) was determined to be 70.1 mol %. The DNA-DNA hybridization values of CHO1(T) with M. mangrovi DSM 28240(T), M. immunditiarum JCM 14034(T), M. oryzae JCM 16837(T) and M. ulmi KCTC 19363(T) were 46.7 +/- 2, 32.4 +/- 2, 32.0 +/- 2 and 29.2 +/- 2 %, respectively. On the basis of genotypic, phenotypic and phylogenetic properties, it is concluded that strain CHO1(T) represents a novel species within the genus Microbacterium, for which the name Microbacterium rhizosphaerae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of M. rhizosphaerae is CHO1(T) (= KEMB 7306-513(T) = JCM 31396(T)).</P>

본 연구는 불쾌감 이론을 기반으로 생리적 요인(폐암 병기와 활동상태), 심리적 요인(불안과 우울), 상황적 요인(사회적 지지)과 증상경험 및 기능적 상태와의 관계를 파악하여 폐암 환자의 증상경험을 관리하는 간호실무에 적용하고자 시행되었다. 본 연구에서 대상자가 지각하는 증상경험은 일반 암 관련 증상과 폐암 특이 증상 점수를 합친 것으로 평균 12.62점이었다. 이는 일반 암 관련 증상을 살펴 본 Baek10)의 27.7점과 Lee와 Kim19)의 23.1점과 비교 시 낮았으며, 일반 암 관련 증상과 폐암 특이 증상 점수를 함께 측정한 Lee3)의 평균 17.15점보다 낮은 점수였다. 이러한 차이는 연령과 현재 치료에 의한 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구의 대상자는 70세 미만으로 60대가 50.5%를 차지한 반면에 Baek10)의 연구에서는 60대 이상이 66.5%인 것을 보면 연령이 증가할수록 증상이 심하다는 연구 결과7)를 지지하고 있다. 특히, 폐암은 연령이 증가할수록 발생이 높아져 70대에서의 발생이 34.5%로 가장 높은 것을 볼 때 증상관리에 대한 요구가 높음을 알 수 있다.2) 또한 본 연구에서는 현재 치료를 받고 있는 대상자가 38.6%로 Lee3)의 43.9%와 전체 대상자가 항암화학요법을 받고 있는 Baek10)의 연구와 비교 시 낮았기에 증상경험이 낮은 것으로 생각된다. 또한 대상자가 지각하는 영양상태나 건강상태가 좋을수록 증상경험은 낮은 것을 발견하였다. 그러나 본 연구대상자들의 56.4%가 암을 진단받은 지 2년이 경과하였고, 38.6%가 현재 치료를 받고 있음에도 불구하고 영양상태가 나쁘다고 인지하는 경우는 3.0%였으며 또한 지난 한달 간 4 kg 이상의 체중감소가 있었던 경우도 2.0%에 불과하였다. 또한 대상자의 80.2%가 현재 건강상태를 보통 이상으로 지각하고 있었다. 따라서 추후에 대상자의 영양과 건강상태에 대한 지각이 증상에 미치는 영향을 규명할 필요가 있다고 생각된다. 생리적 요인인 폐암 병기, 활동상태와 증상경험 간의 관계를 살펴보면, 폐암 병기와 증상경험 간에는 유의한 상관관계를 보이지 않았으나 활동상태와 증상경험 간에는 유의한 중등도의 순상관관계를 보여 활동상태가 저하될수록 증상경험이 심한 것으로 나타났다. 폐암 환자에 있어서 병기는 치료의 방향을 결정하는데 중요한 변수이나 대상자가 경험하는 증상과는 유의한 관계를 보이지 않았고, 오히려 병기와 상관없이 현재 항암화학요법과 같은 치료 중에 있는 대상자의 증상경험이 더 심각한 것으로 나타났다.3,19) 그러나 본 연구에서는 항암화학요법을 받고 있는 대상자의 증상점수가 그렇지 않은 대상자보다 높았지만 유의한 차이는 아니었기에, 질병 관련 생리적 요인에 대한 추가적인 탐색이 필요하다고 사료된다. 본 연구는 외래를 방문하는 환자를 대상으로 하여 활동상태가 ECOG PS 0에서 2단계로 활동상태가 저하될수록 증상경험은 유의하게 높았고, 이는 선행연구의 결과를 뒷받침하고 있다.3,10,11) 심리적 요인인 불안, 우울과 증상경험 간의 관계를 살펴보면, 불안과 우울 모두 증상경험과 유의한 중등도의 순상관관계를 보여 불안, 우울과 같은 심리적 디스트레스가 높을수록 증상경험이 심하게 나타난다는 선행연구의 결과와 일치한다.20,21) Lee3)의 연구에서 비소세포폐암 환자들이 지각하는 불안과 우울과 같은 디스트레스는 증상경험에 직접적인 영향을 주며, 증상경험을 통해 삶의 질에 매우 부정적인 영향을 주는 요인으로 밝혀졌다. 따라서 NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network)의 권고와 같이 암의 진행단계마다 대상자의 불안과 우울을 평가하여 필요시 적절한 도움을 제공해야 하며,22) 이때 환자의 내적 능력인 극복력의 개념을 도입하는 것은 Lee3)의 연구에서 입증하였듯이 유용한 간호접근이 될 수 있다고 생각한다. 상황적 요인인 사회적 지지와 증상경험 간에는 유의한 상관 관계가 나타나지 않았으며, 이는 사회적 지지와 증상 간에 유의한 직접적인 관계가 나타나지 않았던 선행연구와 일치하였다.3,23) 그러나 Lee3)의 연구에서 사회적 지지는 극복력을 매개로 디 스트레스에 영향을 줌으로써 증상부담에 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 본 연구의 대상자가 지각하는 사회적 지지를 살펴보면, 20점 만점에 가족지지는 평균 17.69점, 친구지지는 13.63점, 의료인지지는 10.26점으로, 의료인 지지가 가장 낮으며, 이는 선행연구의 결과와 유사하였다.3,10) 이는 직접간호제공자일 뿐 아니라 옹호자, 지지자로서의 간호사의 역할 수행에 대한 도전적인 결과라 할 수 있다. 따라서 간호사의 지지를 증진시킬 수 있는 방법들에 대한 적극적인 모색이 필요하며, 아울러 증상경험에 영향을 미치는 상황적 요인들에 대한 추가적인 파악이 필요하다고 사료된다. 증상경험과 증상경험의 결과, 즉 기능적 상태와의 관계를 살펴보면, 유의하게 높은 역상관관계를 보여 증상경험이 심할수록 기능적 상태는 저하됨을 보여주고 있다. 이는 다발성 증상군의 경증군은 중증군에 비해 기능이 더 좋았다는 Lee와 Park4)의 연구결과와 호흡곤란 증상이 심할수록 기능상태는 저하되었다는 Mohan 등13)의 연구결과와 일치하였다. 또한 부작용 증상을 심하게 호소할수록 기능적 상태가 저하되었다는 Baek10)의 연구결과를 뒷받침하고 있다. 본 연구에서 폐암 환자가 지각하는 증상경험에 영향을 미치는 요인은 심리적 요인(불안과 우울), 생리적 요인(활동상태), 상황적 요인(사회적 지지)의 순으로 나타났으며, 이러한 요인들은 증상경험의 57.8%를 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 구체적으로 살펴보면, 우울에 의해 증상경험이 43.4% 설명되었으며, 우울과 불안에 의해서는 50.7%설명되었다. 이는 Lee3)의 연구에서 폐암 환자를 대상으로 불안과 우울로 측정한 디 스트레스에 의해 증상부담이 62.8% 설명되었다는 결과보다는 낮았지만, 두 연구결과 모두 불안과 우울이 증상경험에 미치는 영향이 매우 큼을 보여주고 있다. 또한 활동상태가 증상경험에 미치는 영향을 고려하여 활동상태가 매우 저하된 중증의 환자에서의 반복연구가 필요하다고 생각된다. 또한 간호사는 폐암 환자의 증상에 대한 주기적인 평가를 기반으로 체계적인 관리를 제공함으로써 기능상태를 증진시키고 나아가 삶의 질 향상을 도모하는데 주도적인 역할을 담당해야 한다. 폐암 환자가 지각하는 증상경험, 영향요인들과 증상경험 간의 관계, 증상경험과 기능적 상태 간의 관계를 종합해 볼 때, 불쾌감 이론은 폐암 환자의 증상경험을 설명하는데 적합함을 알 수 있었다. 폐암 환자의 증상경험을 적절히 관리하기 위해서는 반드시 불안과 우울과 같은 심리적 요인들에 대한 평가와 환자상태에 맞는 간호접근이 선행되어야 하며, 이러한 과정에 간호사가 적극적으로 개입함으로써 환자 지지자로서의 역할을 수행해야 한다. 또한 불쾌감 이론과 같은 중범위 이론의 간호실무 적용이 더욱 활성화된다면 이론과 실무의 차이를 줄이고 간호실무가 과학적인 배경을 가지고 더욱 발전될 수 있으리라 사료된다. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships of activity status, anxiety, depression, social support, symptom experience, and functional status in patients with lung cancer based on the theory of unpleasant symptoms. Methods: The participants for this study were 101 lung cancer patients who visited the outpatient department for treatment or follow-up at one hospital in Seoul. Data were collected from January 1 to February 8, 2013 using self-reported questionnaires and clinical records. To measure variables, the functional scale and symptom scale of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30, EORTC QLQ-Lung Cancer 13, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support were used in this study. The data were analyzed using SPSS 19.0 software for Windows. Results: The symptom experience showed more severity in patients with lower activity status, higher anxiety and depression. With lower activity status and social support, functional status was lower. When anxiety, depression, and symptom experience were higher, functional status was also lower. The significant factors predicting symptom experience were depression, anxiety, activity status, and social support, which explained 57.8% of the variance. Conclusion: These results suggest that psychological factors such as anxiety and depression had a negative influence on the symptom experience of lung cancer patients. Therefore, providing emotional support based on the patients` needs prior to providing symptom management could be a useful strategy for improving symptom experience and functional status.

한국소비재 신제품성패의 결정요인 분석

조남신(Cho Nam Shin),이진주(Lee Jin Joo) 한국경영학회 1980 經營學硏究 Vol.9 No.-

The modern decision environment is characterized by the presence of multiple objectives or goals, which are generally competing or conflicting. Therfore, it has been well established that virtually every decision making problem involves several key criteria. Mathematical programming techniques based on a single objective criterion such as cost minimization or profit maximization are restricted in application to real-world problems. Radford (14) contended that the goal of a global optimum solution should be discarded when considering complex and multiple objective decision problems. Under the modern complex decision environment, it is necessary to simultaneously consider all of the multiple and often conflicting objectives appropriately in selecting a best strategy or policy. Among the various techniques which have been developed to handle multicriteria decision making problems, goal programming is perhaps the most promising approach as it is an appropriate, powerful, flexible, and pragmatic tool. This technique was originally introduced by Charnes and Cooper (2, 3), and further developed by Ijiri (g) and Lee (11). The goal programming model can be solved through the use of a computer program based on an iterative algorithm. Currently, the most widely used computer program is Lee`s program (11) written in Fortran. Another popular algorithm was developed by Ignizio (7). Lee`s and Ignizio`s programs were designed using the modified simplex method. Lee`s and Ignizio`s programs did not consider efficiency in terms of the running time and storage requirements. Computational inefficiency results from unnecessary information being computed from iteration. to iteration. Recently Arthur (1) attempted to design a more efficient algorithm. This algorithm was tested in comparison with Lee`s algorithm in terms of computational time. Arthur`s goal partitioning algorithm is more efficient than the other two algorithms because it reduces the number of computations by modifying the matrix size when the number of subproblems increases and by eliminating unnecessary nonbasic variables. The critical disadvantage of this algorithm is its inability to provide the final optimal simplex tableau required to perform sensitivity analysis. This paper presents a new efficient GP algorithm based on the product represenation of the revised simplex method in order to overcome deficiencies of computational inefficiency on the part of the Lee and Ignizio algorithms and the lack of the final simplex tableau on the part of the Arthur algorithm.

In recent years, gonorrhea has been pandemic and remains one of the most common STDs in the world, especially in developing countries. For the detection of a more effective therapeutic regimen and assessing the prevalence of Penicillinase Producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae(PPNG), we have been trying to study the patients who have visited the Venereal Disease Clinic of Choong-Ku Public Health Center in Seoul since 1980 by menas of the chromogenic cephalosporin method. In 1998, 93 strians of N. genorrhoeae were isolated, among which 60(64.5%) were PPNG. The prevalence of PPNG in Seoul, which had been decreased to 39% in 1996 after a peak of 74.3% in 1993, is increased to 64.5% in 1998.

3T Multi Voxel Spectroscopy에서 SENSE와 NEX 변화에 따른 정상인 뇌 대사물질 변화 분석

성열훈,임재동,이재현,조성봉,우동철,최보영,Seong, Yeol-Hun,Rhim, Jae-Dong,Lee, Jae-Hyun,Cho, Sung-Bong,Woo, Dong-Chul,Choe, Bo-Young 한국의학물리학회 2008 의학물리 Vol.19 No.4

자기공명분광법(magnetic resonance spectroscopy: MRS)은 인체내 대사물질을 정량분석하여 병변의 조기진단 및 정밀진단에 도움을 주고 있으며, 최근 임상에 이용되고 있는 자기공명분광법은 single voxel spectroscopy (SVS) 기법과 multi voxel spectroscopy (MVS) 기법이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SENSE와 NEX를 변화시킨 multi voxel spectroscopy (MVS)의 데이터와 기존 single voxel spectroscopy (SVS)의 데이터를 비교 분석하여, 각각의 데이터의 유의성 차이를 평가하고자 하였다. 정상 성인 지원자 13명(남자: 5명, 여자: 8명, 평균 41세, 표준편차 11.65세)을 대상으로 chemical shift image (CSI)를 이용한 MVS검사를 시행하였다. 장비는 3.0T Achieva Release Version 2.1 (Philips Medical System, Netherland)을 이용하였고, 8 channel head coil을 사용하여 brain thalamus 부위에서 CSI spectrum을 1 slice 획득하였다. Scan parameter로는 FOV (field of view): $230{\times}184mm^2$, TR (time to repetition): 2000 msec, TE (time to echo): 288 msec, matrix: $15{\times}12$, VOI(view of interest): $110{\times}110mm^2$, voxel size: $15{\times}15{\times}15mm^3$로 하였다. SENSE factor (S)와 NEX (N)는 S1*N1, S2*N1, S2*N2, S3*N2로 변화하여 스펙트럼을 획득하였고, 각 scan time은 5분 54초, 3분 32초, 6분 20초, 4분 20초였다. 얻은 모든 MRS 데이터는 jMRUI 3.0 Version 프로그램에서 분석하였고, SENSE factor와 NEX를 변화시켜 얻은 MVS data 그룹들이 정상 성인 뇌 대사물질의 변화에 영향을 주는지 검증하기 위해 그룹 간에 ANOVA분석을 실행하여 P 값이 0.05보다 크게 나오면 그룹들 사이에 유의한 차이가 없다고 분석하였다. NAA/Cr과 Cho/Cr의 상대적 비율은 MV와 SVS사이에서는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 즉, SENSE factor와 NEX를 변화시켜 얻은 MVS data에서 정상 성인 뇌조직의 대사물질의 변화를 관찰한 결과, S1*N1의 NAA/Cr은 $1.45{\pm}0.03$, Cho/Cr은 $0.88{\pm}0.03$이고, S2*N1의 NAA/Cr은 $1.44{\pm}0.03$, Cho/Cr은 $0.87{\pm}0.05$, S2*N2의 NAA/Cr은 $1.43{\pm}0.02$, Cho/Cr은 $0.87{\pm}0.04$이며, S3*N2의 NAA/Cr은 $1.45{\pm}0.03$, Cho/Cr은 $0.87{\pm}0.03$으로 나타났다(F-value : 1.37, D.F : 3, P-value : 0.262). 그러나 데이터의 질을 측정하기 위한 MVS 데이터의 NAA Peak line-width는 SVS 데이터의 NAA Peak line-width 보다 약 3배 정도 넓었다. 본 연구에서는 MVS에서 SENSE factor와 NEX 값을 다양하게 변화시킨 MVS의 데이터와 SVS의 데이터가 큰 차이가 없음을 확인하였다. 즉, 어는 특정 부위의 뇌 조직의 대사물질은 MVS와 SVS 기법 모두 큰 차이가 없음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러므로 MVS는 SVS보다 광범한 부위를 짧은 시간 안에 검사할 수 있으므로 매우 유용한 방법이라고 사료된다. To evaluate the metabolic changes in normal adult brains due to alterations SENSE and NEX (number of excitation) by multi voxel MR Spectroscopy at 3.0 Tesla. The study group was composed of normal volunteers (5 men and 8 women) with a mean ($\pm$ standard deviation) age of 41 (${\pm}11.65$). Their ages ranged from 28 to 61 years. MR Spectroscopy was performed with a 3.0T Achieva Release Version 2.0 (Philips Medical System-Netherlands). The 8 channel head coil was employed for MRS acquisition. The 13 volunteers underwent multi voxel spectroscopy (MVS) and single voxel spectroscopy (SVS) on the thalamus area with normally gray matter. Spectral parameters were as follows: 15 mm of thickness; 230 mm of FOV (field of view); 2000 msecs of repetition time (TR); 288 msecs of echo time (TE); $110{\times}110$ mm of VOI (view of interest); $15{\times}15{\times}15$ mm of voxel size. Multi voxel spectral parameters were made using specially in alteration of SENSE factor (1~3) and 1~2 of NEX. All MRS data were processed by the jMRUI 3.0 Version. There was no significant difference in NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr ratio between MVS and SVS likewise the previous results by Ross and coworkers in 1994. In addition, despite the alterations of SENSE factor and NEX in MVS, the metabolite ratios were not changed (F-value : 1.37, D.F : 3, P-value : 0.262). However, line-width of NAA peak in MVS was 3 times bigger than that in SVS. In the present study, we demonstrated that the alterations of SENSE factor and NEX were not critically affective to the result of metabolic ratios in the normal brain tissue.

Cho, Changsoon,Kang, Hyunbum,Baek, Se-Woong,Kim, Taesu,Lee, Changyeon,Kim, Bumjoon J.,Lee, Jung-Yong American Chemical Society 2016 ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES Vol.8 No.41

<P>This paper reports the distinct roles- of Au and Ag nanoparticles; (NPs) in organic light-Orating-diodes (OLEDS) depending on their sizes. Au and Ag-NPs that.are 40 arid 50 nm in size, respectively, are the most effective for enhancing the performance of green: OLEDs. The external quantum efficiencies (EQEs): of green OLEDs doped with An and Ag N.Pg, (40 and 50 rim, respectiVely) are improved by 29.5% and 36.1%, respectively, while the power. efficiencies (PE8) are enhanced by 47.9% and 37.5%, respectively. Furthermore, combining the Au and Ag NPs produces greater enhancements. The EQE and PE of the coci-oped OLEDs are improved by 63.9% and 68.8% respectively,-.through the synergistic behavior of the different NPs. Finite difference time-domain simulations confirm that the localized surfaee:plasmon resonance of the Au NPs near 580 nth improves the radiative recombination rate (k(rad)) of green-light emitters locally (<50 pm), while the Ag NPs cause relatively long, range and broadband enhancements in k(rad). The-Simulations of 'various domain sizes. Verify that the light-extraction efficiency (LEE),can, be enhanced by More than 4.2% by applying Ag NPS.. Thus, size-controlled Au and Ag NPs can synergistically enhance LEDS by improving both the internal quantum efficiency and LEE.</P>
