<P>Lee K‐E, Kang H‐Y, Lee S‐K, Yoo S‐H, Lee J‐C, Hwang Y‐H, Nam KH, Kim J‐S, Park J‐C, Kim J‐W. Novel dentin phosphoprotein frameshift mutations in dentinogenesis imperfecta type II.</P><P>The dentin sialophosphoprotein (<I>DSPP</I>) gene encodes the most abundant non‐collagenous protein in tooth dentin and DSPP protein is cleaved into several segments including the highly phosphorylated dentin phosphoprotein (DPP). Mutations in the <I>DSPP</I> gene have been solely related to non‐syndromic form of hereditary dentin defects. We recruited three Korean families with dentinogenesis imperfecta (DGI) type II and sequenced the exons and exon–intron boundaries of the <I>DSPP</I> gene based on the candidate gene approach. Direct sequencing of PCR products and allele‐specific cloning of the highly repetitive exon 5 revealed novel single base pair (bp) deletional mutations (c.2688delT and c.3560delG) introducing hydrophobic amino acids in the hydrophilic repeat domain of the DPP coding region. All affected members of the three families showed exceptionally rapid pulp chambers obliteration, even before tooth eruption. Individuals with the c.3560delG mutation showed only mild, yellowish tooth discoloration, in contrast to the affected individuals from two families with c.2688delT mutation. We believe that these results will help us to understand the molecular pathogenesis of DGI type II as well as the normal process of dentin biomineralization.</P>

Facile synthesis of an IRMOF-3 membrane on porous Al₂O₃ substrate via a sonochemical route

Lee, Y.R.,Cho, S.M.,Ahn, W.S.,Lee, C.H.,Lee, K.H.,Cho, W.S. Elsevier 2015 Microporous and mesoporous materials Vol.213 No.-

A densely-packed IRMOF-3 membrane (S-IRMOF-3(Mem)), ~55 μm in thickness, on an Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB> disc support was prepared via a sonochemical synthesis route, and the optimal fabrication conditions were established. Bare IRMOF-3 particles (S-IRMOF-3(p)) were synthesized independently to analyze the contribution of the Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB> support. The overall physicochemical properties of the IRMOF-3 products produced via the sonochemical route were superior to those prepared by microwave heating. The IRMOF-3 materials produced were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS-mapping, and N<SUB>2</SUB> adsorption-desorption measurements. S-IRMOF-3(p) exhibited satisfactory CO<SUB>2</SUB> adsorption capacities (54 mg/g at 298 K/1 bar; 732 mg/g at 298 K/20 bar) and CO<SUB>2</SUB>/N<SUB>2</SUB> selectivity (18 at 298 K/1 bar). Both S-IRMOF-3(Mem) and S-IRMOF-3(p) were assessed as a catalyst for a liquid phase Knoevenagel condensation reaction between benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate. S-IRMOF-3(Mem) and S-IRMOF-3(p) showed comparable conversions (87-89%) with 100% selectivity after a 4 h reaction at 333 K. The heterogeneous nature of the catalyst was confirmed by a hot filtering experiment, and S-IRMOF-3(Mem) could be recovered easily after the reaction and be recycled several times with little change in product yield.

Diagnostic usefulness of a T cell-based assay for latent tuberculosis infection in kidney transplant candidates before transplantation.Transpl Infect Dis 2010: <B>12:</B> 113–119. All rights reserved</P><P>Background</P><P>The presence of latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) should be evaluated before kidney transplantation. Although a new T cell-based assay for diagnosing LTBI gave promising results, this assay has not yet been compared with the tuberculin skin test (TST) for diagnosing LTBI in renal transplant candidates before transplantation.</P><P>Patients and methods</P><P>All adult patients admitted to a single institute for renal transplantation over a 1-year period were prospectively enrolled. A clinically predictive risk of LTBI was defined as: (i) recent close contact with a person with pulmonary TB; (ii) abnormal chest radiography; (iii) a history of untreated or inadequately treated TB; or (iv) a new infection (i.e., a recent conversion of TST).</P><P>Results</P><P>Of 209 renal recipients, 47 (22%) had a positive TST≥5 mm, 21 (10%) had a positive TST≥10 mm, 65 (30%) had a positive T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> test, and 25 (12%) had an indeterminate T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> test. The induration size of TST was significantly associated with a high positivity rate on T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> (<I>P</I><0.001). Agreement between T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> test and TST≥10 mm was fair (<I>k</I>=0.24, 95% confidence interval 0.11–0.36). However, neither univariate nor multivariate analysis showed any association between the clinical risk for LTBI and positivity on T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> or TST.</P><P>Conclusion</P><P>T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> test was more frequently positive than TST in renal transplant candidates. However, further longitudinal studies are awaited to determine whether the ability of T-SPOT.<I>TB</I> assay to detect LTBI in renal transplant recipients can better predict the development of TB than can TST after transplantation.</P>

Predicting temporal shifts in the spring occurrence of overwintered Scotinophara lurida (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and rice phenology in Korea with climate change

Lee, H.,Kang, W. S.,Ahn, M. I.,Cho, K.,Lee, J. H. Springer Science + Business Media 2016 International journal of biometeorology Vol.60 No.1

<P>Climate change could shift the phenology of insects and plants and alter their linkage in space and time. We examined the synchrony of rice and its insect pest, Scotinophara lurida (Burmeister), under the representative concentration pathways (RCP) 8.5 climate change scenario by comparing the mean spring immigration time of overwintered S. lurida with the mean rice transplanting times in Korea. The immigration time of S. lurida was estimated using an overwintered adult flight model. The rice transplanting time of three cultivars (early, medium, and medium-late maturing) was estimated by forecasting the optimal cultivation period using leaf appearance and final leaf number models. A temperature increase significantly advanced the 99 % immigration time of S. lurida from Julian day 192.1 in the 2000s to 178.4 in the 2050s and 163.1 in the 2090s. In contrast, rice transplanting time was significantly delayed in the early-maturing cultivar from day 141.2 in the 2000s to 166.7 in the 2050s and 190.6 in the 2090s, in the medium-maturing cultivar from day 130.6 in the 2000s to 156.6 in the 2050s and 184.7 in the 2090s, and in the medium-late maturing cultivar from day 128.5 in 2000s to 152.9 in the 2050s and 182.3 in the 2090s. These simulation results predict a significant future phenological asynchrony between S. lurida and rice in Korea.</P>

$^1$H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed in the temperature range of 30 -- 300 K at 7 T to investigate the phase-dependent nature of the dynamic network of hydrogen bonds in a ((NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ single crystal. The crystal has six phases, which are ferroelectric, antiferroelectric, incommensurate, antiferroelectric, ferroelastic, and superionic with the respective transition temperatures of 63, 133, 139, 256 and 413 K. The spin-lattice relaxation time, T₁, of ¹H NMR is similar for the ammonium protons and the hydrogen-bond protons over the entire range of experimental temperatures. The T₁, of ¹H NMR gradually decreases down to 120 K and starts to steeply increase below 100 K. Then, the T₁ shows an abrupt decrease below 68 K with a sharp minimum at 63 K, where the ferroelectric transition occurs. The ¹H NMR spectrum shifts to the high-frequency side at temperatures below 63 K due to the ferroelectric phase transition. This behavior of the T₁ and the spectrum confirms a dramatic change in the dynamics of hydrogen bonds associated with the ferroelectric phase transition at 63 K. $^1$H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed in the temperature range of 30 -- 300 K at 7 T to investigate the phase-dependent nature of the dynamic network of hydrogen bonds in a ((NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ single crystal.

K₂WO₄ flux 에 의한 K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker 의 합성

이진식 ( J. S. Lee ),이상문 ( S. M. Lee ),이철태 ( C. T. Lee ),권긍택 ( K. T. Kohn ),김영명 ( Y. M. Kim ) 한국공업화학회 1993 한국공업화학회 연구논문 초록집 Vol.1993 No.0

K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker는 구조적인 특성 때문에 물리ㆍ화학적으로 매우 안정하며 보강재, 마찰재, 단열재 등의 많은 용도를 갖게된다. 특히 최근에는 석면이 발암물질로 인한 자동차 브레이크 마찰재료의 사용이 금지됨에 따라 K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker는 이의 대체 섬유로서 주목을 받고 있다. 이러한 K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker의 합성방법으로는 TiO₂와 K₂CO₃의 화학양론적 조성의 혼합들을 설정온도에서 소성(calcination method)시키는 방법을 비롯하여 응용법(melting method), 수열법(hydrothermal method), 융제법(flux) 및 KDC법(kneading-drying-calcination method) 등의 방법이 있다. 그러나 수열법의 경우 양질의 whisker를 얻을 수 있으나 고압합성 이므로 위험하고 가격이 비싼 결점이 있으며 공업상 제조에 필요한 조건이 복잡하고 연속조작이 어려워 비현실적인 방법이다. 또한 서냉소성법의 경우 공정이 단순하며 공업화가 쉬우나 비교적 장섬유가 얻어지게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 융제법을 이용하여 K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker를 합성하였으며. 과거에 용제로 사용된 KC1-KF계. K₂O-Na₂O-B₂O₃계 등의 높은 volatility와 viscosity 그리고 낮은 solubility에 대한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 K₂WO₄를 flux로 선정하여 K₂Oㆍ6TiO₂ whisker를 합성하였다.

S6K1 Phosphorylation of H2B Mediates EZH2 Trimethylation of H3: A Determinant of Early Adipogenesis

Yi, S.,Um, S.,Lee, J.,Yoo, J.,Bang, S.,Park, E.,Lee, M.,Nam, K.,Jeon, Y.,Park, J.,You, J.,Lee, S.J.,Bae, G.U.,Rhie, J.,Kozma, Sara C.,Thomas, G.,Han, J.W. Cell Press 2016 Molecular Cell Vol.62 No.3

S6K1 has been implicated in a number of key metabolic responses, which contribute to obesity. Critical among these is the control of a transcriptional program required for the commitment of mesenchymal stem cells to the adipocytic lineage. However, in contrast to its role in the cytosol, the functions and targets of nuclear S6K1 are unknown. Here, we show that adipogenic stimuli trigger nuclear translocation of S6K1, leading to H2BS36 phosphorylation and recruitment of EZH2 to H3, which mediates H3K27 trimethylation. This blocks Wnt gene expression, inducing the upregulation of PPARγ and Cebpa and driving increased adipogenesis. Consistent with this finding, white adipose tissue from S6K1-deficient mice exhibits no detectable H2BS36 phosphorylation or H3K27 trimethylation, whereas both responses are highly elevated in obese humans or in mice fed a high-fat diet. These findings define an S6K1-dependent mechanism in early adipogenesis, contributing to the promotion of obesity.

화학적 거세 및 갑상선 기능조절이 닭의 산육성 증진에 미치는 효과에 관한 연구

이규승,김관영,권순기 忠南大學校 1971 論文集 Vol.10 No.-

This experiment was conducted to improve the meat production and quality of cockerels by controling the function of thyroid and gonad with the hormone preparations. Three weeks old 180 Rhode island red cockerels were divided into six group : iodocasein treatment group, tapazol treatment group, D.E.S. treatment group, D.E.S.+iodocasein treatment group, D.E.S.+tapazol treatment group and control group. Each group was then divided into two groups of 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment, arranging the cockerels 15 each. Iodocasein of 0.25 per cent of the basal ration and tapazol in dose of 0.3 ㎎ per Kg of body weight were administered with the basal ration, and 0.75 ㎎ of D.E.S. was implanted subcutaneously at the head. Body weight was measured weekly to investigate the growth rate and daily gain. Sacrifice was done at the certain days after treatment, and carcass percentage and organ weight were observed. Histological observation on thyroid and gonad was conducted at the same time. The results obtained areas follows; 1. The body weight of D. E. S. group, Tap. group and D. E. S. +Tap. group at the end of experimental period were 1452.37±17.61g and 1473.53±16.18g respectively, showing the increasing significance with P<0.05 as compared with 1305.93±21.67g of control group. Iodo. group and D.E.S.+Iodo. group were lighter than control group, but no significance was recognized. 2. Daily gain and carcass percentage were changed as a similar tendency, showing the significance with P<0.05 after 4 weeks and no significance after 8 weeks. Generally high value was obtained in the group treated with D.E.S. and tapazol. 3. Among the meat compositions any marked difference was not recognized in moisture and crude ash cntents of the experimental groups. Crude protein contents were comparatively more in control group (19.87%) than in treatment groups. As compared with 3.39% of control group, crude fat contents of Tap. grop, D. E. S. group anud D. E. S. +Tap. group were 4.44%, 4.22% and 5.35% respectively. 4. Improved effects on feed convertion rate were obtained in the groups treated with D.E.S. and tapazol. D.E.S.+Tap. group was best : 2.61 on the mean. 5. Comb and wattle weights were changed as a similar tendency, showing the significance with p<0.01 after 4 and 8 weeks. Those of all treatment groups were lighter than of control group, particularly in the groups treated with D.E.S. they were atrophied extremely. 6. Generally weights of head, heart, spleen, gizzard and liver were in proportion to body weight. 7. Whole viscera weight showed the significance with p<0.01 among the treatment groups after 4 and 8 weeks. Those of the groups treated with tapazol and D.E.S. were heavier than of control group. 8. Cloacal thymus weight showed the significance with p<0.05. That of control group was heaviest, being heavier after 4 weeks than after 8 weeks. Meat production and quality cockerels was improved successively by decreasing more or less the function of thyroid and gonad with tapazol and D.E.S. treatment. Only use of tapazol or D.E.S. was fairly effective. Because the iodocasein administration caused the growth restraint and derease of fats, it was worthless for practical application.
