Background: Woori-Heukdon (KWH) is a Korean synthetic pig breed generated using Chookjin-Duroc (KCD), Chookjin-Chamdon (KCC), and their crossbreds. Currently, there is a severe lack of studies investigating the Korean breed populations including wild boars (KWB) throughout the genome. Objective: This study was performed to investigate the genetic characteristics of Korean pig populations at the genome-wide level. Methods: Using the SNP dataset derived from genotyped and downloaded datasets using the Illumina PorcineSNP60K BeadChip, we compared the genomes of 532 individuals derived from 23 pig breeds to assess the genetic diversity, inbreeding coefficient, genetic differentiation, and population structure. Results: KWB showed the lowest average expected heterozygosity (HE = 0.1904), while KWH showed the highest genetic diversity (HE = 0.02859) among Korean populations. We verified that the genetic composition of KWH, showing USD of 74.8% and KCC of 25.2% in ADMIXTURE analysis. In population structure analyses, KCC was consistently shown to be separated from other pig populations. In addition, we observed gene flow from Western pigs to a part of Chinese populations. Conclusion: This study showed that Korean native pigs, KCC have genetic differences in comparison with Chinese and Western pigs; despite some historical records and recent genetic studies, we could not find any clear evidence that KCC was significantly influenced by Chinese or Western breeds in this study. We also verified the theoretical genomic composition of KWH at the molecular level in structure analyses. To our knowledge, this is the first genomic study to investigate the genomic characteristics of KWH and KCC.

A three-dimensional, porous collagen/chitosan complex sponge was prepared to closely simulate basic extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes, collagen and glycosaminoglycan. The complex sponge was prepared by a lyophilization method and had the regular network with highly porous structure, suitable for cell adhesion and growth. The pores were well interconnected, and their distribution was fairly homogeneous. The complex sponge was crosslinked using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) to increase its boilogical stability and enhance its mechanical properties. The crosslinking medium has a great effect on the inner structure of the sponge. The homogeneous, porous structure of the sponge was remarkably collapsed in an aqueous crosslinking medium. However, the morphology of the sponge remained almost intact in a water/ethanol mixture crosslinking milieu. Mechanical properties of the collagen/chitosan sponge were significantly enhanced by EDC-mediated crosslinking. The potential of the sponge as a scaffold for tissue engineering was investigated using a Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO-K1) line.

Abstract-In order to investigate pharmacological properties of New Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill(NSCH) and Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill (SCH), the effects of NSCH and SCH on cerebral ischemia and central nervous system were compared. Cerebral ischemia insult was performed using unilateral carotid artery occlusion in mongolian gerbils. The histological observations showed preventive effects of NSCH and SCH treatments with ischemia-induced brain damage. The ATP in brain tissue was decreased in vehicle-treated ischemic gerbils. This decrease was prevented by SCH treatment. In contrast to what was seen with ATP, lipid peroxide were elevated in vehicle-treated ischemic gerbils. This elevation was inhibited by NSCH and SCH treatments. While NSCH and SCH had no effects on the hexobarbital-induced sleeping time, they prevented the seizures induced by eletric shock and strychnine. NSCH and SCH showed sedative effect in rotarod and spontaneous activity test. Furthermore, NSCH and SCH showed anti-stress effect. Our findings suggest that the pharmacological profiles of NSCH on cerebral ischemia and central nervous system are similar to those of SCH.

목적: 영상음향장비 제조업체에서 2,5-헥산디온을 취급한 근로자에게서 발생한 다발성 말초 신경병증 환례를 보고하고, 동일 공정근로자들의 말초 신경기능을 조사하고 자 한다. 방법: 환례에 대해 방사선학적 검사, 소변 및 혈액 검사, 신경전달속도 검사, 작업환경 측정을 하였으며, 2,5-헥산디온의 노출을 중단시킨 후 5개월 후에 다시 신경전달속도 검사를 하였다. 동일공정 근로자들의 영향평가에서는 2,5-헥산디온에 노출된 13명의 남자 근로자를 노출 군으로, 해당 물질에 노출된 적이 없는 5명의 남자 근로자를 비노출군으로 선정하여 검사를 하였다. 결과: 환례의 신경전도 검사결과 양측 척골신경과 정중 신경에 이상소견을 보였으며, 호전여부를 관찰하기 위하여 5개월 후 추적검사를 실시한 결과 증상 및 신경전달속도 검사결과가 호전되었다. 동일공정 근로자들의 영향평가에서 노출군의 정중 신경과 척골신경이 비노출군에 비하여 유의하게 감소되어 있었다. 감각 신경의 진폭의 경우, 노출군의 정중 신경과 비복 신경이 감소되었으며, 운동 신경 전도속도에서는 노출군의 비골신경이 유의하게 감소되어 있었다. 말단 잠복기에서는 노출군의 정중신경, 척골신경, 비골신경, 경골신경이 비노출군에 비해서 유의하게 연장되어 있었다. 결론: 환례의 증상과 신경전달속도 검사의 이상소견은 2,5-헥산디온에 의한 말초신경병증에 부합되었다. 동일공정 근로자 건강영향평가에서 신경전달속도 검사결과 노출 군과 비노출군간의 유의한 차이가 있었는데, 이를 통해 2,5-헥산디온이 근로자들의 신경독성에 영향을 줄 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수가 있었다. Objectives: This study is a case report of 2,5-hexanedione induced occupational peripheral polyneuropathy. We also investigated the peripheral nerve function of all workers who had been exposed to 2,5-hexanedione in the same process. Methods: In June, 2006, a 2,5-hexanedione exposed worker complained of both hand numbness. He received neurologic, radiologic, laboratorial and electrophysiologic evaluation, including measurements of workplace environment. Five months after cessation of exposure to 2,5-hexanedione, a follow-up electrophysiologic examination was done. We evaluated the peripheral nerve function of 2,5-hexanedione exposed workers by comparing 13 male 2,5-hexanedione exposed workers who were in same company with the patient and 5 male workers who had not been exposed to 2,5-hexanedione. Results: Under electrophysiologic examination, there were abnormalities in sensory and motor nerve velocity, terminal latency, and F-latency of both median nerve and ulnar nerve. After 5 months, the patient symptoms and the results of follow-up electrophysiologic examinations were improved. Comparing the 2,5-hexanedione exposed group with the unexposed group, the sensory nerve velocity of the median and ulnar nerves in the exposed group was decreased. The motor nerve velocity of the peroneal nerve, and sensory nerve velocity of the median and sural nerves were decreased. Terminal latency of median, ulnar, peroneal, and tibial nerves in the exposed group were increased compared with the unexposed group(<0.05). Conclusions: 2.5-hexandione can induce peripheral polyneuropathy in male workers.
