Purpose: To compare the Hong`s grading method, utilized for slit-lamp grading of the mid-peripheral angle, with other conventional grading methods. Actual angle was measured by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) for comparison. Methods: Fifteen eyes with narrow angles and eighteen eyes with wide angles were studied. The average age of thirty-three subjects was 46.8±19.2, and the male to female ratio was 1:3.7. The mid-peripheral angle was graded by Hong`s, van Herick`s and Spaeth`s grading system. The actual anterior chamber angle was evaluated by UBM and the correlation between each grading system and actual angle was investigated. Results: The results from the Hong`s grading (r=0.802, R2=0.643, p<0.01), Spaeth`s grading (r=0.728, R2=0.530, p<0.01) and van Herick`s grading (r=0.618, R2=0.382, p<0.01) methods correlated significantly with the actual angles. Conclusions: The Hong`s grading method was an easy and effective tool to evaluate anterior chamber angle. In addition, the results of the Hong`s grading method were closer to the actual angle than the other methods.

Background Lack of universal replication system for hepatitis B virus with narrow host range and organ tropism has hampered to uncover the pathogenesis of HBV. Previously, we reported the essentiality of humoral milieu and its components toward HBV and hepatitis C virus survival/viability in vitro. Of these components, the precise role of enterohepatic humoral milieu such as bile acid (BA) on HBV cultivation in vitro and in vivo is unknown. Objective We explored whether BA, specifically taurochenodeoxycholic acid (tCDCA) would directly regulate the viral DNA and surface antigen expression of HBV in vitro, consequently rendering HBV to enter into human or murine immortalized hepatocytes, and non-hepatocytes. Result We found that higher concentration of taurochenodeoxycholic acid (tCDCA) is able to preserve the genomic stability of HBV in cell-free DMEM, showing higher the surface antigenicity than taurocholic acid (tCA). In line, we found that in vitro cell culture condition (100 μmol/L of tCDCA coupled with 1 × 108 g e/mL HBV) would be optimal for HBV entry into target cells. Using this, human (HepG2, Huh7), and rodent (Hepa1c1c7, H4-II-E) hepatoma cell lines were infected by HBV, as evidenced by the presence of HBV biomarkers (HBsAg, and HBV DNA in culture supernatant, as well as HBcAg in cell). Further, cellular entry test revealed that HBV is able to infect 12 different non-hepatic cell lines regardless of species, and organ/tissue, consequently reproducing progeny as confirmed by HBV biomarkers. Last, reinfection test showed that the progenies of HBV from immortalized HepG2, and Hepa1c1c7 cells are able to enter into each or vice versa naïve HepG2, and Hepa1c1c7 cells with or without BA. Conclusion This study demonstrates that enterohepatic humoral milieu such as BA, specifically tCDCA would directly regulate HBV DNA and its surface antigen expression in vitro, consequently rendering HBV to enter into human or murine immortalized hepatocytes, and non-hepatocytes. This is the first note to render HBV permissive to human or rodent hepatic and non-hepatic cells via sole manipulation of humoral milieu, thus establishing the platform for in vitro robust replication system of HBV.

Jihoon Shin,Shinae Park,Jung‑Shin Lee,Eun‑Jin Lee,Hong‑Duk Youn 한국유전학회 2020 Genes & Genomics Vol.42 No.3

Background Streptomyces seoulensis has contributed to the discovery and initiation of extensive research into nickel superoxide dismutase (NiSOD), a unique type of superoxide dismutase found in actinomycetes. Still so far, there is no information about whole genome sequence of this strain. Objective To investigate complete genome sequence and perform bioinformatic analyses for genomic functions related with nickel-associated genes. Methods DNA was extracted using the Wizard Genomic DNA Purification Kit then sequenced using a Pacific Biosciences SMRT cell 8Pac V3 DNA Polymerase Binding Kit P6 with the PacBiov2 RSII platform. We assembled the PacBio longreads with the HGAP3 pipeline. Results We obtained complete genome sequence of S. seoulensis, which comprises a 6,339,363 bp linear chromosome. While analyzing the genome to annotate the genomic function, we discovered the nickel-associated genes. We observed that the sodN gene encoding for NiSOD is located adjacent to the sodX gene, which encodes for the nickel-type superoxide dismutase maturation protease. In addition, several nickel-associated genes and gene clusters-nickel-responsive regulator, nickel uptake transporter, nickel–iron [NiFe]-hydrogenase and other putative genes were also detected. Strain specific genes were discovered through a comparative analysis of S. coelicolor and S. griseus. Further bioinformatic analyses revealed that this strain encodes at least 22 putative biosynthetic gene clusters, thereby implying that S. seoulensis has the potential to produce novel bioactive compounds. Conclusion We annotated the genome and determined nickel-associated genes and gene clusters and discovered biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites implying that S. seoulensis produces novel types of bioactive compounds.

현재 국내.외 기간 통신망은 급격히 증가하는 고속 대용량 트래픽을 효율적으로 멀리 전송하기 위해 광증폭기를 이용한 파장분할다중화방식 (DWDM:Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 광전송 시스템 통신망을 구축하고 있다. DWDM광전송 시스템에서 고속, 대용량 및 장거리 전송을 하기 위해서는 기존 3R 광 중계기시스템에서 크게 중요시 않았던 광 fiber의 비선형(non-linearity) 전송제약 요소를 고려하여 통신망을 설계하여야 한다. 광통신망에서 장거리 전송 시 신호펄스 파형의 왜곡을 최소화하기 위해 영분산(zero-dispersion)을 구현하여야 하지만, 영분산으로 인하여 파이버의 비선형 현상이 나타나 신호 스펙트럼 왜곡 현상이 발생하는 문제가 있다. 즉 영 분산과 파이버의 비선형 사이에 서로 상충관계를 해결하여야 고속 대용량 트랙픽을 장거리 전송할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 DWDM 해저 광 통신망에서 고속 대용량 트래픽을 장거리 전송하기 위한 기술을 알아보고, 영분산과 파이버의 비선형 사이에 상충문제를 해결 위한 분산관리 기법을 소개하고, 실제한국-홍콩간 해저 광통신 구간에서 분산 맵 (dispersion map)을 설계 구현하였다. Currently, Most of the Backhual and Submarine s networks are being installed using DWDM and EDFA to deal with dramatically increasing internet traffic. In a conventional type optical system, the so-called 3R repeater, fiber non- linearity was not significant factor but it is one of the most important consideration when designing new DWDM network based on the EDFAs. To minimize the signal pulse distortion in long-haul optical network, Zero-dispersion fiber is indispensable but causes the fiber non-linearity. Therefore this conflicting problems should be managed to transmit a high-speed capacity traffic. In this paper, key technologies in DWDM submarine optic network were found out for a high capacity traffic and introduced the dispersion management way for solving the conflicting problems between Zero-dispersion and non-linearity. Lastly designed a dispersion map in section between Korea and Hong-kong.

Ownership Structure of Northeast Asian Countries

Seung Rok Park,Peter Drysdale,Shin Il Kang,In kie Hong 한국경제연구원 2004 한국경제연구원 연구보고서 Vol.2004-02 No.-

1 In the first paper “Determinants of Corporate Ownership Structure and their effects on Corporate Governance in South Korea” by Shin-Il Kang, Korea’s unique characteristics, specifically the ownership structure and corporate governance are examined. The author takes a broad perspective by incorporating corporate culture, business leadership, and ownership structure in Korean corporation. Furthermore, he discusses the substitutability of Korean specific features given the rapidly changing economic environment. Under the Korea’s Chaebol structure, controlling shareholders, who are the real owner of firms, have exercised ownership rights while having a large proportion of shares aided by cross shareholdings. This has been possible through the pyramid ownership control structure as well as cross-shareholding among subsidiaries. Market circumstances related to management costs are not favorable to the firm with a dispersed ownership structure. In Korea, that’s the reason why ownership is concentrated. Given such a structure, the owners minimize costs related to management’s risks. Furthermore it proposes that leadership(firm culture) and ownership are substitutes. Concentrated ownership is needed when the leadership is not mature like Korean Chaebol. 2 The second paper “Issues in Japanese Corporate Governance” by Peter Drysdale examines some of the major issues of Japanese corporate governance today. The role of that main bank in corporate governance and inter corporate shareholding has been well documented. Although Japanese banks have rigorously monitored firms and have had an enormous influence on firms’ decisions and strategies through the owning of shares, firm performance under such a main bank system has not always been positive. Opposing views and their rationale regarding the pessimism behind the performance of firms in the main bank system are also explained in this paper. 3 The paper “Corporate Governance in China” by In Kie Hong discusses the current status and the restructuring efforts of China’s corporate governance. In China, state shareholders possess strong control rights over listed companies allowing them to exercise control even beyond their proportion of shareholding. Various governmental organizations(under the Communist Party) acting as representatives of the state as shareholders have influenced firms enormously, particularly regarding matters of organizing the board of directors as well as electing management. However since they have little incentives to manage state(national) assets and have insufficient capacity to monitor a large number of firms of which they are in charge, the principal-agent problem tends to prevail, which adds to the difficulties in preserving the value of state assets as well. 4 The last paper “Ownership Concentration and Corporate Performances in the Northeast Asian Countries” by Seung-Rok Park compares the relationship between corporate governance structure and corporate performance in Korea, Japan, and China by empirically examining the accounting corporate performances and technical efficiency measures. In the case of Korea, ownership concentration was shown to have positively affected all corporate accounting performance variables such as profit margin, return on shareholders’ funds, return on total assets, and return on capital employed. Furthermore, it was also found that ownership concentration positively affected corporate performance by helping improve the technical efficiency of firms. Unlike Korea, in Japan, there was no sign of a positive effect of ownership concentration on the accounting corporate performance and technical efficiency. Moreover, in the case of China, ownership concentration positively affected profit margin and return on total assets, while no positive effects of ownership concentration were found on return on capital employed and return on shareholders’ funds. It is shown in this study that the difference in the rel

혈중 감마지티피 상승의 임상적 의의

신주연,김용규,박신구,이지나,김환철,임종한,홍윤철 大韓産業醫學會 2005 대한직업환경의학회지 Vol.17 No.1

목적: 혈중 감마지티피는 주로 알코올 섭취와 간세포 손상의 지표로서 이용되어져 왔으나 최근에는 혈중 감마지티피가 체내의 산소성 스트레스를 민감하게 반영하는 지표이며, 혈중 감미지티피를 이용하여 만성질환의 발생을 조기에 예측할 수 있다는 주장들이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 일반 인구 집단을 대상으로 한 건강검진 자료를 분석하여 혈중 감마지티피의 상승에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석하고 혈중 감마지티피와 산소성 스트레스와의 관련성 및 임상적인 이용 가능성을 알아보고자 한다. 방법: 2001년부터 2003년까지 한 대학병원 산업의학과에서 건강검진을 실시한 15,546명을 대상으로 하였고 신체계측, 혈액검사 그리고 설문지의 정보를 분석하였다. 총 15,546명 중 남성은 9,660명 이었고 여성은 5,886명 이었다. 연령, 성별, 체질량지수, 흡연, 음주, 운동량 비타민 복용 여부에 따른 혈중 감마지티피의 평균을 분석하였고, 성별에 따른 다변량 분석을 실시하였다. 다변량 분석에는 연령, 체질량지수, 음주빈도, 흡연량, 혈색소, 이완기혈압, 공복시혈당, 총콜레스테롤, ALT를 포함하였다. 결과: 연구 대상자들의 혈중 감마지티피의 평균은 남성에서 평균(±2SD)이 47.51(±111.62)이었고, 여성에서는 19.09(±42.02) 으로서, 대체적으로 정상 범위에 있다고 보여 지나 개인차가 상당히 크다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 다변량 분석의 결과에서는 혈중 감마지티피의 상승에 영향을 미치는 요인이 성별에 따라 다소 달랐으나 남녀 모두에게 연령, 음주빈도, 흡연량, 이완기혈압, 공복시혈당, 총콜레스테롤, ALT가 유의한 영향이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 다변량 로지스틱회귀분석의 결과에서 '임상적 비정상'을 예측함에 있어 혈중 감마지티피가 진단적 유용성이 있음을 확인하였다. 결론: 긴존에 일반적으로 알려져 있는 것처럼 혈중 감마지티피를 단순히 알코올 섭취와 간세포 손상의 지표로서만 볼 수 없으며, 성별, 연령, 흡연, 고지혈증, 당뇨, 고혈압 등 많은 다른 요인들에 의해서 영향을 받으며, 혈중 감마지티피를 산소성 스트레스를 반영하는 생물학적 지표로 해석할 수도 있다. 따라서 혈중 감마지티피의 상승을 임상적으로 해석할 때는 (비록 정상인 범위에 있다하더라도), 알코올 섭취나 간세포 손상 뿐 아니라 다른 여러 요인들을 함께 고려해야 한다. 더욱이 혈중 감미지티피의 상승을 만성질환 즉, 고혈압, 당뇨, 고지혈증 등의 발생을 조기에 발견할 수 있는 지표로서 임상영역이나 건강검진시 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것이다. Objectives: Incresed gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) concentration has mainly been used as a biologic marker of alcohol drinking and liver diseases. However, some recent reports have suggested that serum GGT concentration may be an early biomarker of oxidative stress and associated with chronic diseases like hypertension, DM, hyperlipidemia, CHD, stroke etc. In this study, we analysed the factors associated with increased serum GGT level and evaluated the clinical application of serum GGT in predicting the risk of chronic diseases. Methods: The data were collected from 15,546 periodic health examinations, 9,660 males and 5,886 females, done at one university hospital from 2001 to 2003. We analysed self-questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory data. Statistical analyses(t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis and logistic regression analysis) were done by SPSS for windows 10.0. Results: Mean serum GGT levels were quite different according to age, sex, BMI, smoking and alcohol drinking (all P-value <0.001), but were not different by regular vitamin intake or not (P-value = 0.117). There was significant correlation between serum GGT level and the variables (of age, BMI, blood pressure, Hb, fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, AST and ALT) (all P-value <0.001). In sex-specific multiple regression analysis, increased serum GGT level was significantly associated with age, alcohol drinking, smoking, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar and ALT in males (all P-value <0.001), and with age, alcohol drinking, smoking, Hb, blood pressure, total cholesterol and ALT in females (all P-value <0.05). In sex-specific logistic regression analysis, increased serum GGT level was significantly associated with risk of 'clinical abnormalities'. This risk increased about 13-fold in males and 4.6-fold in females for serum GGT level over the third quatile, compared with under the first quartile. Conclusions: Serum GGT level is increased not only by alcohol drinking or liver diseases, but also by many other factors associated with chronic diseases and behavioral factors. Thus many factors should be considered in evaluating an increase in GGT level, even when within the upper normal range. Serum GGT level may be a predictor for the early development of chronic diseases.
