Plant genetic engineering led to the production of plant-derived mAb (mAbP), which provides a safe and economically feasible alternative to the current animal expression systems. In this study, the expression level of mAbP SO57 between with and without Lys-Asp-Glu-Leu (KDEL) was compared in transgenic plant. PCR and PT-PCR analyse showed stable gene insertion transcription of heavy and light chain genes of mAbP SO57 with or without KDEL in plant, respectively. We validated expression of mAbP SO57 by western blot. Western blot showed the significantly higher expression level of mAbP SO57 with KDEL compared to without KDEL. Flow cytometry (FACS) analysis showed that the Fc domains of both purified mAbP and mammalian-derived mAb (mAbM) evidenced similar binding activity to the FcγRI receptor (CD64). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysed, glycosylation patterns of mAbP SO57 with or without KDEL. The mAbP SO57 with KDEL had glycan profile with both oligomannose type (47.6%) and golgi type (52.4%), while the mAbP SO57 without KDEL had only golgi type (100%) glycans. Neutralizing analysis with rabies virus CVS-11 showed the similar neutralizing activity between mAbP SO57 with and without KDEL. These results suggest the potential of mAbP SO57 for rabies immunotherapy, regardless of plant specific glycan structures.

Plant genetic engineering has led to the production of plant-derived mAb (mAbP), which provides a safe and economically feasible alternative to the current antibody expression systems. In this study, the expression levels of mAbP SO57 with or without ER-signal peptides (Lys-Asp-Gly-Leu;KDEL) in transgenic tobacco plants were analysed in transgenic plant. PCR and Reverse Transcription-PCR analyses showed existence of heavy and light chain genes of mAb with or without KEDL and their transcription in plant, respectively. Western blot showed that the expression levels of mAbP SO57 with KDEL were significantly higher than that without KDEL. Flow cytometry analysis showed that the Fc domains of both purified mAbP and mammalian-derived mAb have similar binding activity to the FcγRI receptor. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis showed that the mAbP SO57 with KDEL had glycan profile with both oligomannose and golgi type, whereas the mAbP SO57 without KDEL had only golgi type glycans. Neutralizing analysis with rabies virus CVS-11 showed the similar neutralizing activity between mAbP SO57 with and without KDEL. These results suggest that the potential of mAbP SO57 for rabies immunotherapy is regardless of plant specific glycan structures.

Oxidative stress is well known to be implicated in the development of asthma. The mitochondrial respiratory chain is a major site of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and, at the same time, an important target for the damaging effects of ROS. Mito-Tempo is a specific mitochondrial ROS inhibitor and it is known to be associated with opening of mi-tochondrial permeability transition pore and inhibition of cell necroptosis or apoptosis. However, there is little information on the protective effects of Mito-Tempo on the inflammatory airway disorders including bronchial asthma and its acute exacerbation. We investigate the effects of Mito-tempo on the allergic airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness using the mice sensitized with OVA and LPS and then challenged with OVA (OVALPS-OVA mice). The OVALPS-OVA mice showed the typical features of neutrophilic asthma; increased airway inflammatory cells, the pathologic changes, the increased levels of Th2 cytokines in lungs of OVALPS-OVA mice, increased mitochondrial ROS generation, and increased bronchial hyperresponsiveness. Interestingly, we found that in OVALPS-OVA mice, Mito-Tempo, a novel mitochondrial targeting agent significantly reduced the increases in inflammatory cytokines, mitochondrial ROS generation, airway inflammation, and bron-chial hyperresponsiveness. These findings indicate that mitochondrial dysfunction including oxidative damage may be im-plicated in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma and provide the therapeutic potential of a mitochondrial targeting agent, Mito-Tempo, for bronchial asthma.

Background:Alzheimer's disease (Ad) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is rapidly increasing with the aging society, requiring a need for early diagnosis and prevention. However, diagnosis on AD has only been possible through limited methods such as neuropsychological examination or MRI. AD is characterized by deposition of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. Aβ peptide in senile plaques seems to play a central role in the neuropathology of AD. Several biochemical markers for AD are available, including reduced Aβ protein, a change in ratio between Aβ40 and 42 and increased level of tau protein in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Methods:This study analyzes anti-Aβ antibody from serums of AD patients using the ELISA. The levels of anti-Aβ antibody from patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease or stroke and from normal control were compared to that of AD patients. Results:Our results showed a significantly lower anti-Aβ antibody level in AD compared to those with other neurological diseases or control. Conclusions:These data showed that the anti-Aβ antibody level in the serum may be used to diagnose the presence of AD.

Background: With reports on the relation between smoking and depression appearing since 1980, it has become clear that depression is one of the psychodynamics of smoking, though there has been little or no progress made in the study of whether or not there is indeed a relation between depression and nicotine dependence. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of depression on the amount and period of smoking and nicotine dependence among university man student smokers. Method: In periodical examination between 14 and 21, May, 2003, using 170 university male. The CES-D(Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression) Scale and the FTQ(Fagerstrom Tolerance Qustionnaire) were utilized to measure the level of depression and nicotine dependency. The amount of smoking was calculated based on the number of cigarette used. Result: Results indicated that depression had something to do with amount of smoking. Nicotine dependence also was related to depression but total value was relatively low. finally the period of smoking had nothing to do with depression. Conclusion: The results of this study revealed that the amount of smoking of university man student smokers was very high. Both the amount of smoking and nicotine dependence were affected by levels of depression. Accordingly psychiatric nursing access such as emotional support is needed to manage depression and decrease smoking.

The possibility of the correlation and the prediction of vapor-liquid equilibrium(VLE) data by using the relative volatility was analysed. This analysis was carried out for the two different binary groups. The one is for the same binary systems which VLE data were determined at different pressure, and the other is for the different binary systems, one of which component have the same functional group, at the same pressure. The VLE data have been recalculated using a relative volatility which was derived in this work for 18 binary systems and compared with the literature values. The result of the comparison showed a rare possibility of correlation and prediction of the VLE data.

Molecular phylogenetic studies of the HIV-1 isolated from Koreans have suggested the presence of the so- called “Korean clade”, which can be defined as a cluster free of foreign isolates. The Korean clade accounts for more than 60% of Korean isolates and exerts characteristic amino acid sequences. Thus, it is merited to estimate when this Korean clade first emerged in order to understand the evolutionary pattern of the Korean clade. We analyzed and reconstructed the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) sequences from nef (n=229) and vif (n=179) Korean clade sequences. Linear regression analyses of sequence divergence estimates were plotted against sampling years to infer the year in which there was zero divergence from the MRCA sequences. MRCA sequences suggested the Korean clade was first emerged around 1984, before the first detection of HIV-1 in Korea in 1985. Further studies on synonymous and nonsynonymous substitution rates suggested positive selection event for the Korean clade, while other subtype B had undergone negative to neutral evolution.

In order to make a functional jam containing garlic, sugar, acid and pectin were mixed with garlic and concentrated by heating the mixture under atmosphere or vacuum conditions. And changes of some physico-chemical properties of the garlic jam(i.e., color, textural properties, vitamin C) were investigated during storage at 30℃. It was found that lightness(L) was higher in sample of vacuum concentration than that in atmosphere concentration and redness(a) and yellowness(b) were higher in sample of atmosphere concentration. During the storage lightness was found to decrease for all samples with more drastic decrease in sample of atmosphere concentration where browning was more severely observed after 8 weeks of storage. In terms of textural properties, hardness, chewiness and gumminess were higher in sample of atmosphere concentration than that in vacuum concentration. And springiness and cohesiveness were higher in sample of vacuum concentration. Although sensory score for garlic jam found to be lower than that for the existing strawberry jam, the present garlic jam might have high marketability if considering its physiological value. 마늘을 이용한 기능성 잼을 제조하기 위하여 마늘에 당, 산, 펙틴을 첨가하고 평압과 감압에서 농축하여 마늘잼을 제조한 후 색도, 조직특성을 조사하고 30℃에서 저장하면서 색도, 조직의 변화, 비타민 C의 변화를 측정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 원료마늘의 일반성분은 수분 57.2%, 탄수화물 23.6%, 조단백 1.9%, 조지방 0.75%, 회분0.93%이었고 비타민 C는 8.4 mg/l00g이었다. 명도는 진공농축한 것이 평압농축한 것보다 높았고 적색도와 황색도는 평압의 것이 높았다. 저장기간에 따라 명도는 모두 감소하였으나 평압에서 농축한 것이 감압보다 크게 감소하였으며 갈변화가 저장 8주에는 심하게 나타났다. 마늘잼의 조직특성은 hardness, chewiness, gumminess는 평압농축이 감압농축에 비하여 높았고 springiness, cohesiveness는 평압농축이 낮았다. 마늘잼의 기호성은 딸기잼에 비하여 떨어지지만 기능성을 감안할 때 시장성이 매우 높을 것으로 판단한다.
