<P>Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have emerged as a new therapeutic tool for a number of clinical applications, because they have multipotency and paracrine effects via various factors. In the present study, we investigated the effects of adipose-derived MSC (Ad-MSC) transplantation via intrathecal injection through the cisterna magna on cell proliferation and differentiation of endogenous stem cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) using Ki-67 (a marker for proliferating cells), and doublecortin (DCX, a marker for neuroblasts). The transplanted Ad-MSC were detected in the meninges, not in the hippocampal parenchyma. However, the number of Ki-67-immunoreactive cells was significantly increased by 83% in the DG 2 days after single Ad-MSC injection, and by 67% at 23 days after repeated Ad-MSC treatment compared with that in the vehicle-treated group after Ad-MSC transplantation. On the other hand, the number of DCX-immunoreactive cells in the DG was not changed at 2 days after single Ad-MSC injection; however, it was significantly increased by 62% 9 days after single Ad-MSC injection. At 23 days after repeated Ad-MSC application, the number of DCX-immunoreactive cells was much more increased (223% of the vehicle-treated group). At this time point, DCX protein levels were also significantly increased compared with those in the vehicle-treated group. These results suggest that the intrathecal injection of Ad-MSC could enhance endogenous cell proliferation, and the repeated Ad-MSC injection could be more efficient for an enhancement of endogenous cell proliferation and differentiation in the brain.</P>

The prevalence of PPNG among pretreated gonorrhea cases isolated at the STD clinic of Choong-Ku Public Health Center in Seoul has been studied and reported annually since 1981. In 1991, 123 strains of N.gonorrhoeae were isolated, among which 58(47.1%) were PPNG. In 1992, 98 starains of N.gonorrhoeae were isolated, among which 51(52.0%) were PPNG. In all, 109(49.3%) strains were found to be PPNG among 221 strains isolated between 1991-1992. The prevalence of PPNG in Seoul showed increased tendency till 1989, thereafter, it has been stationary or slightly decreasing.

Effects of pyridoxine on a high‐fat diet‐induced reduction of cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation depend on cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein in the mouse dentate gyrus

Yoo, Dae Young,Kim, Woosuk,Yoo, Ki‐,Yeon,Nam, Sung Min,Chung, Jin Young,Yoon, Yeo Sung,Won, Moo‐,Ho,Hwang, In Koo Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company 2012 JOURNAL OF NEUROSCIENCE RESEARCH - Vol.90 No.8

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>In this study, we challenged pyridoxine to mice fed a high‐fat diet (HFD) and investigated the effects of pyridoxine on HFD‐induced phenotypes such as blood glucose, reduction of cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation in the dentate gyrus using Ki67 and doublecortin (DCX), respectively. Mice were fed a commercially available low‐fat diet (LFD) as control diet or HFD (60% fat) for 8 weeks. After 5 weeks of LFD or HFD treatment, 350 mg/kg pyridoxine was administered for 3 weeks. The administration of pyridoxine significantly decreased body weight in the HFD‐treated group. In addition, there were no significant differences in hepatic histology and pancreatic insulin‐immunoreactive (‐ir) and glucagon‐ir cells of the HFD‐treated group after pyridoxine treatment. In the HFD‐fed group, Ki67‐positive nuclei and DCX‐ir neuroblasts were significantly decreased in the dentate gyrus compared with those in the LFD‐fed mice. However, the administration of pyridoxine significantly increased Ki67‐positive nuclei and DCX‐ir neuroblasts in the dentate gyrus in both LFD‐ and HFD‐fed mice. In addition, the administration of pyridoxine significantly increased the protein levels of glutamic acid decarboxylase 67 (GAD67) and brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the immunoreactivity of phosphorylated cyclic AMP response element binding protein (pCREB) compared with the vehicle‐treated LFD‐ and HFD‐fed mice. In contrast, the administration of pyridoxine significantly decreased HFD‐induced malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the hippocampus. These results showed that pyridoxine supplement reduced the HFD‐induced reduction of cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation in the dentate gyrus via controlling the levels of GAD67, pCREB, BDNF, and MDA. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</P>

Background: Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src are non-receptor tyrosine kinases. FAK and Src play a critical role in inducing malignant transformation in tumor cells. Objectives: We performed immunohistochemical staining for total and phosphorylated forms of FAK and Src, to evaluate the role of FAK and Src in the development of premalignant and malignant skin lesions. Methods: A total of 59 facial skin samples (30 actinic keratoses, 10 Bowen``s diseases, 13 squamous cell carcinomas and six perilesional skins) were immunohistochemically stained for Ki-67, total (t) and phosphorylated (p) form of FAK and Src. Methods: A total of 59 facial skin samples (30 actinic keratoses, 10 Bowen``s diseases, 13 squamous cell carcinomas and six perilesional skins) were immunohistochemically stained for Ki-67, total (t) and phosphorylated (p) form of FAK and Src. Results: Cells positive for t-Src, p-Src-y530, t-FAK and pFAK-s722 were detected in premalignant intra-epithelial lesions (PELs) and squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), but not in the perilesional skin. There was a tendency towards high correlation between Ki-67 and t-FAK or pFAK-s722, suggestive of the active role of FAK in cell proliferation. Conclusion: Our findings of higher t-Src and p-Src-y530 positive cells in PELs, as compared to SCCs (with higher Ki-67 level), are suggestive of the other role of Src in tumor formation and progression, which requires further investigation.

Chines herbs nephropathy (CHN) has been described in young women who had taken a slimming pills containing some chines herbs. Aristolochic acid (AA), suspected substance as the causal factor of CHN, is known a carcinogen. The Aristolochiae fructus (fruit of Aristolochia contorta) was used in Korean Traditional Medicine consists of appropriate amounts of mixed natural products. Subchronic toxicity of A. furctus containing aristolochic acid was investigated in SD rats. The body weight and clinical signs were observed after orally administration of A. futctus at doses of 21.2, 213, and 2130 mg/kg/day; mixture (including 9 other herbs) at dose of 427 mg/kg/day; aristolochic aicd (Ⅰ+Ⅱ) at doses of 0.05, 0.5, and 5 mg/kg/day for 3 months. At the end of the treatment, high dose treated animals revealed a deficit in final body weight about 25% compared with that of control. Organ weights of kidney, liver, testis, or ovary were increased with dose dependent manner. No changes considered to be due to the administration of A. furctus, mixture or aristolochic acid were in hematological and clinical study. However, significant changes at histopathological study of kidney and stomach were boserved in high-dose treated groups. In conclusion, for human health safety it needs appropriate regulatory actions regarding the use of natural herbal medicines known or suspected of containing aristolochic acid.

시간경과에 따른 안정화 이산화염소(Stabilized ClO₂)의 콩팥조직 부패억제에 대한 현미경적 연구

황규성,최기주,백두진,임도선 韓國電子顯微鏡學會 2008 Applied microscopy Vol.38 No.3

소취 및 소독제로서 사용되어온 안정화 이산화염소(S-ClO₂)의 조직에 대한 부패억제 효과를 확인하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 실험을 위해 8주령 SD계 흰쥐 콩팥(kidney)을 사용하였고, 안정화 이산화염소를 처리하지 않은 대조군과, 안정화 이산화염소의 분말과 수용액을 처리한 실험군으로 구분하여 광학 및 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 광학현미경 관찰 결과, 부패양상은 시간경과에 따라 토리, 보우만주머니 및 세뇨관을 구성하는 세포의 핵과 세포사이 경계가 불분명해지며, 세뇨관의 경우 신장되었다가 결국에 수축되었다. 대조군의 1일군부터 괴사(necrosis)가 시작되어 3일군 이후는 전체적인 조직 괴사로 형태를 구별하기 어려웠다. 실험군에서 3일군의 경우, 조직의 전반적 형태와 괴사정도가 대조군의 1일군과 유사하였다. 전자현미경 관찰 결과, 시간경과에 따라 세포소 기관 및 미토콘드리아의 부분적 붕괴로 시작되어 결과적으로 모든 세포내소기관이 붕괴되었다. 대조군의 1일군에서 세포소기관의 부분적 붕괴가 관찰되었으며, 실험군의 3일군에서 세포소기관 및 미토콘드리아의 부분적 붕괴 현상이 관찰되었다. 대조군의 3일군 이후에서는 세포소기관을 구별할 수 없었다. 이상의 연구 결과에서 37˚C, 습도 80±5%에서 안정화 이산화염소(S-ClO₂)가 부패와 변성을 억제하는 부패억제제로서 효과가 있고, 억제 정도는 실험군의 3일군이 대조군의 1일군에 해당하는 것으로 보아 최소 2일 정도의 부패억제 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. The stabilized ClO₂ gas has been used for many years by the food industry as a strong oxidizing and sanitizing agent that has broad and high biocidal effectiveness. Therefore, “stabilized ClO₂” gas may be used in fields of disinfectant and sterilization. But, there have been few studies on the decomposition-inhibition effect of stabilized ClO₂ gas with passage of time. The main purpose of this study was to examine the decomposition-inhibition effect of stabilized ClO₂ gas and the morphological change of kidney by measuring of the light and electron microscope. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats weighting from 230 gm to 250 gm were used as experimental animals. Under ether anesthesia, the right kidney of rat was obtained. Put each sample in 37˚C and humidity 80±5% incubator, we obtained each sample after 0 day, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days and 5 days. We proceeded the observation of light and electron microscope. The results obtained in this study reveal that stabilized ClO₂ gas is an effective decomposition inhibitor until 2 days that was conducted at 37˚C and humidity 80±5% conditions.
