오이속의 조효소액에 존재하는 Superoxide dismutase(SOD)활성의 pH 안정성은 pH 8.0에서 가장 안정하였고 pH5.0~9.0 사이의 범위에서는 비교적 안정하였다. 최적 온도는 25℃였고 열 안정성은 60℃까지는 안정하였다. 100℃에서 5분간 보관하였을 경우에는 12%만이 남아있었다. 오이에 존재하는 SOD 활성이 섭취 후에도 안정한가를 확인하기 위한 실험에서는 위속의 pH와 동일하도록 오이속의 조효소액의 pH를 2.0으로 변형시킨 후 36.7℃에서 3시간 동안 보관 후에 잔존활성이 10%였고, 장내의 환경인 pH 7.0으로 바꾸어 6시간 동안 둔 후 잔존하는 SOD의 활성은 25%로 활성이 증가되었다. 다양한 열처리 후에 잔존하는 오이의 SOD활성은 오이속은 데치기에서(끓는 물에서 2분) 25%, 껍질은 찌는 동안에(3분) 53%, 그리고 속과 껍질로 분리하지 않은 오이는 데치기에서 27%의 활성잔존률을 보였다. 4℃에서는 20일간 보관한 후에 오이속의 조효소액은 81%활성이 있었고, 30℃에서는 17%의 활성이 남아 있었다. 투석한 결과 SOD의 활성은 변화가 없었으므로 오이속에 존재하는 SOD는 적어도 분자량이 12,000 이상의 물질로 추정된다. The superoxide dismutase(SOD) in peeled pericarp of cucumber was most stable at pH 8.0 and relatively stabe between pH 5.0 and 9.0. The enzyme was stable up to 60℃ and retained 12% by heat treatment at 100℃ for 5 min. At pH 2.0, the peeled pericarp enzyme activity was decreased to 10% by incubation for 3 hrs. However, the enzyme activity was increased above 25% after incubating the enzyme at pH 7.0 for 6 hrs. Retention of SOD activity in cucumber by various heating methods was also measured. The residual SOD activities of peeled pericarp and whole cucumber was estimated to be 25% and 27% after blanching (2 min), respectively. The skin enzyme retained 53% of its activity after steaming (3 min). When the peeled peri carp enzyme was incubated at 4℃ for 20 days, the enzyme activity remained about 81%. However, when the enzyme incubated at 30℃ for 20 days, the peeled pericarp enzyme activity decreased to 17% of its original activity. The enzyme activity of peeled pericarp cucumber was not changed after exhaustive dialysis for 3 days, which indicated that the SOD activity in cucumber seems to have molecular weight above 12,000.

Exploiting Microwave Chemistry for Activation of Metal-Organic Frameworks

Lee, Eun Ji,Bae, Jinhee,Choi, Kyung Min,Jeong, Nak Cheon American Chemical Society 2019 ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES Vol.11 No.38

<P>Microwave is thought of as a useful electromagnetic radiation tool because it is often used in real life as well as in a variety of chemical processes. Meanwhile, activation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which must be essentially done to remove coordinating and pore-filling solvents before the use of MOFs for various applications, has been performed commonly with the methods of heat supply or solvent exchange. Here, we show a new methodological microwave activation (MA), realizing it with various MOFs such as HKUST-1, UiO-66, and MOF-74s. For instance, microwave irradiation to the MOF samples for 4-35 min leads to the complete activation of the MOFs without structural damage. As described below, we further demonstrate that the solvent-assisted MA, which is the MA process performed after the solvent exchange, can substantially reduce the time for the activation by 4 min.</P> [FIG OMISSION]</BR>

Background: As nonsurgical interventions for vitiligo are not always successful, various surgical modalities have been used in patients with refractory vitiligo. Of these, non-cultured epidermal suspension transplantation (NCES) was recently introduced to treat large recipient sites using cells from small donor tissue. Objective: We assessed the effectiveness and safety of NCES as a surgical treatment for patients with refractory vitiligo. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 20 cases in 17 patients (11 females; median age 25 years) who underwent NCES from July 2015 through March 2018. Suction blisters (20 mm in diameter) were collected from the patient’s inner thigh at a donor-to-recipient area ratio of 1:5. After the addition of 5 mL recombinant trypsin solution to the suction blisters, followed by incubation at 37°C for 60 min, epidermal cells were manually scraped off the blister surface, and epidermal cell suspension was obtained by centrifugation at 1,500 RPM for 5 min. The suspension was applied to the vitiligo regions after epidermal ablation of those regions. Phototherapy resumed 1 month later. Treatment success was defined as ≥75% repigmentation of the surgical site, and all adverse events were noted. Results: Overall, 85.0% of cases (17/20) exhibited treatment success. Adverse events included hyperpigmentation (20%) and surgical site infection (5%), but the treatment was tolerable in all cases. Conclusion: NCES is a reliable surgical option for patients with vitiligo refractory to nonsurgical treatment. Large areas of vitiligo can be treated by NCES, and use of this technique should be encouraged in Korea. (Korean J Dermatol 2018;56(7):426∼432)

Gastric metastasis from breast cancer is rare and only six cases have been reported in Korea. Colon metastasis is more rare than gastric metastasis. We report a 63-year-old woman with gastric and colon metastases of invasive lobular carcinoma of breast. She was diagnosed as right breast cancer, received right modified radical mastectomy 10 years ago and has been treated with chemotherapy and hormone therapy. Investigating for melena and a small caliber of stool, we found gastric and colon metastases. The diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer was made through gross pathologic and immunohistochemistry staining. We report a case with gastric and colon metastases from breast cancer and a review of the associated six case reports in Korea.

목적: To determine the differences in pregnancy outcomes among cases treated by vaginal progesterone, intramuscular(IM) progesterone and conservative management in twin pregnancies with a short cervix. 방법: This is a retrospective study of 273 twin pregnancies complicated by a short cervix(<2.5cm) who delivered from 2007 to 2016 in CHA Bundang Medical Center. Women who received cervical cerclage were excluded. Treatment groups included 1) group I; conservative management group without progesterone treatment(n=174), 2) group II; vaginal progesterone suppository group(n=30), 3) group III; IM progesterone injection group(n=69). Primary outcomes were spontaneous birth at <28, 32, 34, or 36 weeks of gestational age(GA). The secondary outcomes included hospitalized for tocolytics or antenatal corticosteroids, small for gestational age and low APGAR score(<7) at 5 min. 결과: Preterm birth before 36 weeks of GA was different among 3 groups(29.3%[51/174] vs.20.0%[6/30] vs.43.5%[30/69], p=0.034). Low APGAR score(<7) at 5min was significantly different among 3 groups(7.8%[27/348] vs.5.0%[3/60] vs.15.2%[21/138], p=0.018). After multivariate analysis, preterm birth(<36 weeks) occurred more frequently in group III than group I(aOR 6.90 95%CI:1.06-45.04, p=0.044). However, there was no significant difference between group II and III. Meanwhile, there were more cases with low APGAR score(<7) at 5 min in group III than group I(aOR 6.58 95%CI:1.43-30.21, p=0.015) and group II(aOR 17.04 95%CI:1.56-185.74, p=0.020) after multivariate analysis. 결론: In twin pregnancies complicated by short cervical length, IM progesterone group showed significantly greater occurrence of preterm birth before 36 weeks of GA in comparison with vaginal progesterone group and conservative management group.

저산소성 허혈성 뇌손상을 유발시킨 어린 백서에서 Myeloperoxidase 측정 검사

양혜정(Hae Joung Yang),피대훈(Dae Hun Pee),임지혜(Ji Hye Lim),최병민(Byung Min Choi),이기형(Kee Hyoung Lee),은백린(Baik-Lin Eun) 대한소아신경학회 2002 대한소아신경학회지 Vol.10 No.2

목 적 : 예전에는 뇌경색 부위에서 발견되는 백혈구를 단지 뇌손상에 뒤따르는 생리적인 반응으로만 생각하였으나 최근 10년 사이 재관류 손상에서도 백혈구에 의한 염증 작용이 중요한 역할을 한다고 알려지면서 이들의 역할에 대한 연구가 새롭게 이루어지고 있다. PML의 존재는 세포질내 과립에서 분비되는 MPO를 생화학적으로 측정함으로서 증명할 수 있는데 저자들은 미성숙 뇌에서 저산소성 허혈증에 의한 뇌손상이 발생할 때 백혈구가 침윤되는 과정을 MPO 측정 검사를 통하여 관찰하였고, P와 L-selectin 억제제인 Fucoidin을 투여한 후 MPO의 변화를 확인하였다. 방 법 : 생후 7일된 어린 흰쥐를 사용하여 우측총 경동맥을 전기 응고시켜 자르고 8% 산소에 노출시켰다. 저산소 노출 후 회복 시간에 따라 동물을 희생시키고 뇌를 추출하여 뇌조직 1 g당 10mL의 20 mM potassium Phosphate buffer(pH 7.4)를 첨가하여 50초간 분쇄하였다. 각각의 균질회된 조직 샘플들은 4℃에서 20분 동안 원심 분리하여 상층액을 제거한 후, 침전물은 처음 조직량에 따라 조직 1 g당 10 mL의 0.5% cetylditrimethylethyl ammonium bromide(wt/vol)가 첨가된 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer(pH 6.0)를 첨가하였다. Vortex를 이용하여 buffer와 침전물을 잘 섞고 60℃수조에서 120분 동안 방치하였다. 그 후 각 조직 샘플들을 4 watts에서 음파처리하고 4℃에서 15분 동안 원심 분리를 시행하여 상층액을 새로운 tube에 옮겼다. MPO 측정검사를 위한 MPO reaction buffer는 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer(pH 6.0) 100 mL에 0.53 mM odianisidine edihydrochlorde와 0.0005% HO를 섞어 만들었다. MPO reaction solution 2.9 mL에 각각의 MPO sample 0.1 mL을 첨가하여 460 nm의 파장에서 5분 동안 MPO에 다른 흡광도 차이를 관찰하였다. 결 과 : 조직내 백혈구 침윤의 지표로 측정한 MPO 활성도는 대조군에서는 미미하였으나 총 경동백을 절단한 우측 대뇌군에서는 허혈 및 저산소증 유발 후 8시간째부터 현저히 증가되기 시작하여 24시간 경과 후 발현이 가장 높았으며, Fucoidin 50 mg/kg으로 전처치한 약물 실험군에서는 MPO 활성도가 현저히 감소하였다. 결 론 : 백혈구는 미성숙 뇌의 저산소성 허혈증에 의한 뇌손상에서 중요한 매개체 역할을 하며, 백혈구의 생화학적 활성도를 나타내는 MPO 활성도는 저산소성 허혈성 뇌손상의 정도를 측정하는 지표로 이용될 수 있다고 생각된다. Purpose : Neutrophils found around an infarcted area in the brain was once considered as only the physiologic response following the brain injury, but recent studies have shown that inflammatory responses by neutrophils play an important role in the reperfusion injury. The presence of ploymorphonuclear leukocytes(PML) is proven by biochemical assay of myeloperoxidase(MPO) Secreted in the cytoplasmic granules. We observed the process of PML infiltration on hypoxic-ischemic brain injury of immature rats by the assay of MPO activity and changes of the MPO activity after the administration of fucoidin, inhibitor of P- and L-selectin. Methods : We used a well characterized model of the brains of 7 day-old-rats, which had unilateral hypoxic and ischemic injuries(HI). Those injuries were induced by unilateral carotid artery ligation followed by timed exposure to hypoxic inspiratory gas mixture(8% O). MPO activity was measured in the brain tissue homogenates of HI rats(n=18) at 0, 2, 8, 24 and 48 hrs and in rats that received fucoidin immediately before and again after hypoxia(50 mg/kg, n=6) at 8 and 24 hrs. Controls(n=2) were rats with neither hypoxia nor ischemia. The brain samples were homogenized in 20 mM potassium phosphate buffer(pH 7.4) for 50 secs. The homogenate was centrifuged at 14,000 g at 4℃ for 15 mins and the supernatant was discarded. The tissue was pulverized, weighed, and suspended in 1 mL of 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer solution(pH 6.0) contatining 0.5% cetylditrimethylammonium bromide(wt/vol). The tissue was sonicated and centrifuged at 10,000 g for 15 mins. 200 µL of the supernatant was mixed with 1 mL of 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer solution(pH 6.0) containing 10 μL of 1.325 mM o-dianisidine hydrochloride and 170 µL of 3% hydrogen peroxide(vol/vol). Changes in absorbance at 460 nm were measured for 5 mins by using microplate reader. One unit of MPO activity was defined as that degrading 1 µmol peroxide/min at 25℃, and the result was expressed as units of MPO/100 gm tissue. Results : In HI rats, MPO activity increased at 2 hrs after HI and peaked at 24 hrs in the right hemisphere. In rats with fucoidin treatment immediately before and again after hypoxia, the MPO activity significantly decreased in both hemispheres compared with HI rats(P<0.05). MPO activity in the tissue of control rats was insignificant. Conclusion : The dynamic changes of the MPO activity suggest the important role of PMN on hypoxic-ischemic brain injuries in immature rats. MPO activity could be used as an index of the severity of injuries of hypoxic-ischemic brains.

Eight monitoring stations in the Yeosu National Industrial Complex will determine the concentration of air pollutants measured every hour in 2019, analyze what factors affect them, and how they correlate with the air pollutant measurements. Six air pollutants (SO2, NO2, O3, CO, PM-10 and PM-2.5) measured at eight monitoring stations around Yeosu National Industrial Complex (Seogang-dong, Wolnae-dong, Munsu-dong, Yeocheon-dong, Deokchung-dong, Hwayang-myeon, Yulchon-myeon, Samil-dong) the measurement data for each hour of the year were downloaded to analyze the concentration by weather condition, time zone, season, separation distance from Yeosu Industrial Complex, and separation distance from Gwangyang Industrial Complex. SO2, NO2, and CO concentrations were significantly higher in winter, significantly lower in summer, and O3, PM-10, and PM-2.5 concentrations were significantly higher in spring. SO2, CO, PM-10, and PM-2.5 concentrations were significantly higher between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m., NO2 concentrations were significantly higher between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m., and O3 concentrations were significantly higher between 13 p.m. and 15 p.m.(p<0.001). The concentration of air pollutants (SO2, NO2, CO, PM-10, PM-2.5) excluding O3 was found to have a negative (-) correlation with weather condition, and in the case of O3, it was found to have a positive (+) correlation with PM-10, PM-2.5, temperature and wind speed. It was confirmed that the concentration of air pollutants emitted from the Yeosu National Industrial Complex differs depending on the season, time and distance to the industrial complex. This study aims to establish measures to minimize health damage to residents living relatively close to the industrial complex and contribute to the establishment of management and response measures according to the properties of substances to reduce the concentration of air pollutants in the future.

스트레스 반응에 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 CRHR1 유전자 SNP와 알코올 의존과의 연관성에 관한 선행 연구들이 있다. 이에 본 연구는 백인을 대상으로 조사했던 기존연구와는 달리 한국인 남녀를 대상으로 하여 알코올 의존군과 정상 대조군의 CRHR1 유전자형 빈도 및 대립유전자형 빈도를 비교하였다. 본 연구의 연구대상자들은 알코올 의존군 268명(남자 218명, 여자 50명)과 정상 대조군 137명(남자 78명, 여자 59명)이었다. CRHR1 유전자 SNP를 SNP database와 선행연구를 근거로 선정한 후, 연구 대상자들의 이러한 SNP 유전자형을 PCRRFLP방법으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, 한국인의 CRHR1 유전자 SNPs로 7개(rs242938, rs404623, rs28364027, rs16940686, rs937, rs878886, rs878887)가 분석되었다. 이중 rs28364027의 A 대립 유전자의 빈도는 남녀 각각에서 알코올 의존군이 대조군보다 유의하게 높았다. 그리고 rs28364027의 AA 유전자형 및 A 대립 유전자와 rs878886의 CC유전자형 및 C 대립유전자의 빈도는 알코올 의존군내에서 여성이 남성보다 유의하게 높았다. 이러한 결과를 종합해 보면 CRHR1 유전자 SNP가 알코올 의존의 유전적 원인의 중요한 요인일 가능성을 제시하고 있다. 또 이러한 CRHR1 유전자 SNP가 알코올 의존의 유전적 원인에서 남녀간 차이를 설명할 수 있을 가능성도 시사하고 있다. Objectives:There were several preceding studies investigating the association between alcohol dependence and corticotropine releasing hormone receptor1(CRHR1) gene SNPs that play an important role in response to stress. The frequencies of CRHR1 genotypes and alleles were compared between alcohol-dependent patients and normal control subjects. Methods:The subjects were 268 alcohol-dependent patients(218 males, 50 females) and 137 normal controls(78 male, 59 female). CRHR1 gene SNPs were investigated according to the SNP database and the results from previous studies, and their genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP). Results:Seven CRHR1 gene SNPs(rs242938, rs404623, rs28364027, rs16940686, rs937, rs878886, rs878887) were found in Korean subjects. The frequency of rs28364027 A allele was significantly higher in alcohol-dependent patients than normal controls in both genders. In alcohol-dependent patients, the frequencies of AA genotype and A allele of rs28364027, and of CC genotype and C allele of rs878886 were higher in female than male. Conclusion:These results suggest that CRHR1 gene SNP is one of the important genetic factors in the etiology of alcohol dependence. And also it is supposed that the different frequency of SNP genotype could explain stress-related gender difference in the genetic etiology of alcohol dependence.

Mental illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression have shown high prevalence of obesity. According to the previous studies, nutrition education has therapeutic effects on patients, however mentally ill patients rarely have opportunities of long term nutrition education. In this study, nutrition education based on the social cognitive theory was conducted. Patients with mental illness received education program once a month during 18 months in a day hospital. Fifteen patients were included and divided into two groups according to the attendance rate. Results showed that the group attended the education more than 10 times showed weight loss, while the group less than 10 times showed weight gain. Five long-term hospitalized patients gained weight during one year prior to the nutrition education, but showed weight loss during one year with the nutrition education. Regardless of the number of attendance, the group of BMI≥30kg/m2 showed weight loss. Although this study has several limitations and did not obtain a statistically significant results, it confirmed the necessity of providing clinical nutrition services including nutrition education for mentally ill patients.
