Objectives: The mushroom Ganoderma lucidum has been widely used as a traditional herbal medicine for many years. Although several studies have focused on the anti-oxidative activity of this mushroom, the molecular mechanisms underlying its activity have not yet been clearly established. The present study investigated the cytoprotective effect of ethanol extract of Ganoderma lucidum (EGL) against oxidative stress (hydrogen peroxide, $H_2O_2$) and elucidated the underlying mechanisms in a C2C12 myoblast cell line. Methods: Oxidative stress markers were determined by using the comet assay to measure reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage. Cell viability and Western blotting analyses were employed to evaluate the cellular response to EGL and $H_2O_2$ in C2C12 cells. Transfection with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-specific small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) was conducted to understand the relationship between Nrf2 expression and $H_2O_2$-induced growth inhibition. Results: The results showed that EGL effectively inhibited $H_2O_2$-induced growth and the generation of ROS. EGL markedly suppressed $H_2O_2$-induced comet-like DNA formation and phosphorylation of histone H2AX at serine 139 ($p-{\gamma}H2AX$), a widely used marker of DNA damage, suggesting that EGL prevented $H_2O_2$-induced DNA damage. Furthermore, the EGL treatment effectively induced the expression of Nrf2, as well as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), with parallel phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of Nrf2 in the C2C12 myoblasts. However, zinc protoporphyrin IX, a HO-1 inhibitor, significantly abolished the protective effects of EGL against $H_2O_2$-induced accumulation of ROS and reduced cell growth. Notably, transient transfection with Nrf2-specific siRNA attenuated the cytoprotective effects and HO-1 induction by EGL, indicating that EGL induced the expression of HO-1 in an Nrf2-dependent manner. Conclusion: Collectively, these results demonstrate that EGL augments the cellular anti-oxidant defense capacity through activation of Nrf2/HO-1, thereby protecting C2C12 myoblasts from $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative cytotoxicity.

BRS는 인간의 잠재능력을 적극적으로 계발 · 활용하여 임의의 시료에 대한 미지 (未知)의 생체정보 (Bio-Information)를 편리하게 분석할 수 있는 효과적이고 경제적인 분석장비이다. 그러나 BRS와 관련된 분석방법 자체의 정확도에 대한 연구는 충분하게 이루어지지 않고 있다. 그래서 BRS 분석방법의 정확도를 과학적으로 확인해보기 위해서 본 연구를 진행했다 실험결과, BRS에 의한 생체정보 분석방법 의 정확도는 측정자의 숙련정도에 따라 다르지만 고급 측정자의 경우에는 95% 이상의 높은 확률로 표준시료의 생체정보를 정확하게 분석할 수 있으며, 측정자의 분석능력이 떨어지는 경우에는 여러 명의 측 정자를 대상으로 비교검토(Cross-Check) 방식으로 실험을 보완하면 90% 이상의 정확도를 확보할 수 있었다. BRS is a sort of analysis-instrument which help to estimate some Bio-Information for a sample conveniently and effectively But, for lack of the study to verify the confidence-degree of the Bio-Information analysis method related to BRS, the availability of the method is not known clearly yet, It was the reason that made authors perform this study And It was possible to arrive at the following two conclusions I though the confidence-degree of the Bio-Information analysis method ny BRS was different according to the degree of the expertness of a person using the instrument in the case of the very skillful expert, the confidence-degree for the standard sample used in this study was reached to 95% up 2 In the general case, to improve of the confidence-degree of the Bio-Information analysis method by BRS, the cross-check method by the several measuring person can be introduced.

플라톤의 「政治家論」에 관한 小考 : 이상과 현실의 갈등을 중심으로 With Emphasis on the Conflict Between the Ideal and the Reality

劉昊暻,徐陽重 慶尙大學校 1989 論文集 Vol.28 No.2

Although Plato can be regarded as a typical idealist, He didn't totally ignore the realistic persepective. He built up his political theory in "The Republic", "The Statesman" and "The Laws". We can find some aspects of a typical idealist in the "The Republic" Which is one of his works, But he recognized the importance of the political reality in "The Statesman" and "The Laws". The most desirable way of thinking is available through the harmony between the ideal and the reality. In "The Statesman", Plato tried to establish his theory through this way of thinking Analyzing "The Statesman" in this article, We want to suggest an answer to the problem the idea and the reality which is a substance of current struggle of our society. What Plato tried to achieve in "The Statesman" is to find a model of the ideal statesman who knows the best way for the state. The ideal statesman can go his own way in opposition to the existing laws, because he knows the best way, that is, the law is invaluable to him. However, as a matter of fact, we can't expect this kind of statesman and the only possible alternative is the law. In "The Statesman", Plato suffered an intellectual agony between statesman as an ideal and the law as a reality.

Cellulosic substance which plays an important role in carbon cycle is most abundant in the nature would. Some higher fungi are able to digest cellulose directly to satisfy their carbohydrate requirement. The effects of active conditions in the various substrates added Czapek's-Dox media for celluloytic enzymes activity by coprinus atramentarius were investigated. The optimum pH and temperature for enzymes activity were 5.0 and 40℃ in Cx-cellulase, 5.0 and 30℃ in C₁-cellulase, 7.0 and 20℃ in β- glucosidase, respectively. Among the various substrates added to Czapek's-Dox media, FPC media was effective to Cx-cellulase activity and PSC media was effective to C₁- cellulase and β- glucosidase activity.

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy can cause intracerebral hemorrhage, progressive dementia, seizure and transient ischemic attacks. Dementia is a relatively common manifestation and associated with the presence of recurrent strokes and leukoencephalopathy. A 66-year-old right-handed man with hypertension and recurrent strokes presented with rapidly progressive dementia and sudden onset of dysarthria and dizziness. He showed memory impairment, personality and behavioral changes, and executive dysfunction for one and an half years. These symptoms developed insidiously and quite rapidly without fluctuation. Brain CT showed a small hemorrhage in the right cerebellum. Brain MRI, especially gradient-echo images revealed multiple cortical and cortico-subcortical microbleeds. Four weeks later, right hemiparesis suddenly developed and a repeated MRI showed a new left corona radiata infarction. We learn from this case that gradient-echo MR images should be performed in patients with rapidly progressive dementia and recurrent strokes.
