국가장기생태사업(LTER)의 일환으로 한라산 아고산대 구상나무림의 물질생산과 탄소분포의 특성을 밝히고자 2009년부터 2013년까지 현존량, 유기탄소분포, 낙엽생산, 임상낙엽량과 토양 유기탄소 축척량을 조사하였다. 식물현존량은 상대생장법에 의해 보고된 물질생산 식을 이용하여 측정하고 이를 이산화탄소의 고정량으로 환산하였다. 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 와 2013년의 현존량은 각각 98.88, 106.42, 107.67, 108.31 와 91.48 ton ha-1 였다. 이 기간 동안의 유기탄소는 지상부 생물량에 35.95, 38.69, 38.96, 39.46, 33.2 ton C ha-1, 지하부 생물량에 8.54, 9.2, 9.49, 9.28, 7.97 ton C ha-1 이 각각 분포하였다. 5년 동안 낙엽 생산을 통해 1.09, 1.80, 1.32, 2.46 와 1.20 ton C ha-1 의 유기탄소가 생태계로 유입되었다. 2010, 2011, 2012와 2013년의 임상낙엽층의 유기탄소량은 2.74, 2.43, 2.00 와 1.16 ton Cha-1였고, 토양 20cm깊이까지의 유기탄소 축적량은 55.77, 54.90, 50.69, 44.42 와 41.87 ton C ha-120cm-1였다. 이와 같이 현존량과 유기탄소량이 2009~2012년까지 매년 증가하였지만 태풍이 있었던 2013년에는 감소하였다. 이러한 현상은 자연적 교란이 한국의 아고산대 생태계에 크게 영향을 미친다는 것을 의미한다. Annual biomass production and amount of organic carbon in Abies koreana forest at Mt. Halla were conducted as a part of Korea National Long-Term Ecological Research (KNLTER). We measured standing biomass change of litter, soil production and organic carbon amounts of the forest floor and soil layer of A. koreana forest in Mt. Halla from 2009 to 2013 in permanent plots. Standing biomass, which was determined by allometric method, was converted into CO2. The standing biomass in A. koreana forest was 98.88, 106.42, 107.67, 108.31, 91.48 ton ha-1 in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 year, respectively. The amount of annual carbon allocated to above ground was 35.95, 38.69, 38.96, 39.46, 33.2 ton C ha-1 and below ground biomass was 8.54, 9.2, 9.49, 9.28, 7.97 ton C ha-1 in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 year, respectively. Amount of organic carbon returned to the forest via litterfall was 1.09, 1.80, 1.32, 2.46 and 1.20 ton C ha-1 in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Amount of organic carbon in annual litter layer on forest floor was 2.74, 2.43, 2.00 and 1.16 ton C ha-1 in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 year, respectively. Amount of organic carbon within 20cm soil depth was 55.77, 54.9, 50.69, 44.42 and 41.87 ton C ha-120cm-1 in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 year, respectively. Then standing biomass and organic carbon distribution increased steadily until 2012. But there declined in 2013 because of the typhoon Bolaven. Thus, standing biomass and organic carbon distribution of this subalpine forest were largely affected by natural disturbance factor.

리포솜은 표적 약물을 봉입하여 병소에 안전하게 전달할 수 있는 약물전달체로서 연구되고 있다. 그러나 일반적인 리포솜은 표적부위에서 약물방출이 제한적인 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 리포솜의 안정성을 향상시키고 표적부위에서 외부 초음파로부터 약물의 방출을 극대화시키기 위하여 하이드록시아파타이트(hydroxyapatite, HA)가 코팅된 리포솜을 개발하였다. 대조군 리포솜은 인지질과 콜레스테롤을 이용하여 제조하였고, 대조군 리포솜의 표면에 칼슘 아세테이트, 포스포릭에시드, 그리고 25% 암모니아용액을 이용하여 HA를 코팅하였다. 모델 약물로는 독소루비신을 사용하였다. HA코팅 리포솜의 크기는 120 nm 이었고, 약물봉입효율은 95% 이상이었다. 30% 혈장용액 내에서 HA코팅 리포솜의 입자크기는 일정한 상태를 유지하였으며, 대조군 리포솜은 크기가 1.4배 증가하였다. 외부 초음파 자극에 의한 리포솜으로부터 약물 방출을 유도한 후, 방출된 약물의 세포 이입율은 HA 코팅된 리포솜이 3배 이상 대조군 리포솜에 비하여 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 외부 초음파 자극에 의하여 리포솜으로부터 약물의 방출을 극대화시키기 위한 초음파 민감형 리포솜을 개발하였고, 본 제형은 표적부위에서 약물의 방출을 효과적으로 제어하기 위한 분야에 활용이 가능할 것이다. Liposomes, which can deliver payload at target site, have been studied as drug carrier. However, conventional liposomes have limitation for drug release at target site. Therefore, we developed hydroxyapatite (HA) coated ultrasound sensitive liposomes to increase drug release at target site and to enhance stability in blood stream. Control liposome was prepared using hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine (HSPC) and cholesterol, and then we assessed HA coating on the surface of control liposomes using calcium acetate, phosphoric acid, and 25% ammonium solution. Doxorubicin was used as a model drug. Size of HA coated liposomes was 120 nm and encapsulation efficiency of doxorubicin in liposomes was up to 95%. Size of HA coated liposomes are not changed in 30% serum solution, however, the control liposomes was 1.4 fold increased. After ultrasound triggered drug release from liposomes, intracellular efficiency of drug released from HA coated liposomes was 3 fold increased compared to control liposomes. In this study, we developed ultrasound sensitive liposomes to enhance drug release, which will be applied in controlled drug release at disease site.

Background: Non-variceal upper GI bleeding (NVUGIB) is a common medical problem that has signifi cant association with morbidity and mortality. Angiographic detection and subsequent transarterial embolization (TAE) is a primary treatment option when medical and endoscopic treatments fail. We investigated clinical factors that could affect the success of the angiographic detection and prognosis after TAE in patients with NVUGIB refractory to endoscopic therapy. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data was done in patients with failed endoscopic treatment who underwent angiography for the treatment of acute NVUGIB between May 2002 and May 2013. Patients were divided into detection or non-detection groups according to the presence of bleeding stigmata in angiographic fi nding. Rebleeding defi ned as subsequent bleeding event within 7 days and mortality within 30days were analyzed as outcome parameters after TAE following detection in angiography. Results: A total 45 patients 37 (male, mean age, 65.9±14.9 years) were analyzed and classifi ed as a detection group (n=25, 55.5%) and non-detection group (n=20, 44.6%). Peptic ulcers were the most common cause of refractory NVUGIB. Larger transfusion amount (5.7±3.9 unit vs. 3.5±2.8 unit; P=0.03), prolonged aPTT level (34.2±17.3 sec vs. 21.8±13.8 sec; P=0.01) and short time interval between last endoscopy and angiography (17.5±25.9 hours vs. 34.3±59.5 hours; P=0.04) were found to be signifi cant factors for predicting angiographic detection. TAE was performed in all patients detected in angiography. Rebleeding (44%) was significantly associated with higher Rockall score (8.3±1.5 vs. 6.6±2.4; P=0.046) and mortality (12%) was signifi cantly associated with higher Rockall score (9.3±0.6 vs. 7.1±2.2; P=0.002) and higher level of BUN (55.3±47.4 vs. 27.6±17.4; P=0.01). Conclusions: Clinical characteristics associated with angiographic detection in patients with NVUGIB refractory to endoscopic therapy were severe bleeding, bleeding tendency and early angiographic intervention. The Rockall score is useful parameter for predicting rebleeding and mortality after TAE.

이종태(Jong Tae Lee),하인종(In Jong Ha),김희대(Hee Dae Kim),문진성(Jin Seong Moon),김우일(Woo Il Kim),송원두(Won Doo Song) 한국원예학회 2006 원예과학기술지 Vol.24 No.2

벼와 양파 2모작 논토양에서 효율적인 돈분뇨 액비 시용을 위하여 액비 시용에 따른 양파의 생육, 양분흡수량 변화와 토양의 이화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 사용된 액비의 질소, 인산 및 칼륨 함량은 각각 4.2, 0.34, 1.2g kg⁻¹ 등이었다. 추비용 액비는 시용 10일 전에 물로 2배 희석하여 월 2회씩 4회와 6회로 나누어 시용하였다. 기비는 질소표준시비량 기준으로 19,280kg ha⁻¹로 시용하였으며 추비에 사용된 액비량은 101,910kg ha⁻¹이었다. 양파의 초장은 정식 136일 후부터 186일까지 급격히 증가하였으며 화학비료구, 액비기비+화학비료 추비구 및 액비기비+액비 4회 추비구 간에는 차이가 없었으나 무비구와 액비전량 기비구는 양분부족으로 생육이 저조하였다. 구 비대초기의 구경은 무비구에서 가장 컸으나 그 이후 화학비료구와 액비시용구에서 크게 증가하였다. 엽 생체중의 변화는 초장과 유사한 경향을 보인 반면 구 생체중은 구경과 비슷한 경향을 나타내었다. 초장과 엽중은 화학비료구와 액비전량 기비구 및 액비기비+액비 6회 추비구간 다소 작았으나 구경, 구중 및 엽수는 처리간 차이가 뚜렷하지 않았다. 양파 구와 잎의 양분흡수량은 전 생육기간에 시그모이드 형을 나타내었으며 잎과 구의 양분흡수량은 각각 잎과 구의 생육이 진전됨에 따라 증가하는 경향이었다. 화학비료구와 액비기비+화학비료 추비구 및 액비 4회 추비구간에 양분흡수량의 차이는 없었고 액비전량 기비구에서 잎의 질소와 칼륨흡수량이, 구의 질소흡수량이 화학비료구보다 적었다. 무비구는 질소, 칼륨 및 마그네슘 흡수량이 다른 처리구보다 적었다. 액비기비+액비 4회 추비구에서 질소와 인산이용률이 각각 23.5%, 13.2%로 가장 높았으나 액비기비+액비 4회 추비구에서 칼륨이용률이 높았고 상품 수량도 55.0Mg ha⁻¹로 가장 많았다. 구의 질소, 인산 및 칼륨함량은 생육이 진전됨에 감소하는 경향이었고 잎의 질소함량은 생육초기에 가장 많은 반면 칼륨함량은 구비대 초기에 가장 많았다. 수확 후 토양 pH, 질산태 질소, 교환성 칼륨 및 EC 농도는 화학비료구보다 액비시용구에서 약간 증가하였다. 본 연구 결과를 종합해 볼 때 돈분뇨 액비를 기비로 시용하고 3배 희석한 액비를 2월과 3월에 4회 추비하면 균형적인 양분공급이 가능하고 적정 수량도 확보할 수있었다. This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of liquid pig manure (LPM) on the nutrient uptake, yield of onion and soil properties. The LPM applied to onion field contained 4.2 g kg⁻¹ N, 0.34 g kg⁻¹ P, 1.2 g kg⁻¹ K and it was diluted with water by 1:2 for top-dressing, which was applied separately 4 or 6 times from February to April. The LPM application rate for basal fertilization was 19,280 kg ha⁻¹ which included 80 kg N, 6.6 kg P, and 22 kg K. The application rate for top-dressing was 101,910 kg ha⁻¹ which included 160 kg N, 13 kg P, and 53 kg K. The plant height was not almost different among treatments until 136 days after planting. Thereafter, it enlarged abruptly until 186 days, on May 4. The significant difference among CF and LPM + top-dressing by CF or LPM I was not shown, but no fertilizer and LPM only (it was applied totally as basal fertilization) made plant height of onion lessen at the maximum growth stage because of insufficient nutrients. The plant diameter increased after 136 days, and there was a significant difference between CF or LPM and no fertilizer from 186 days after planting. The leaf weight was similar tendency to plant height while bulb weight was similar to plant diameter. The amount of nutrient uptake in leaf coincided with leaf growth and the nutrient uptake in bulb swelled simultaneously with bulb growth. The difference between CF and LPM + top-dressing by CF or LPM I was not significant in nutrient uptake of onion leaf and bulb. But LPM only decreased in nitrogen and potassium of leaf and in nitrogen of bulb. And no fertilizer made a remarkable difference to others in nitrogen, potassium and magnesium of leaf and bulb. The utilization of nitrogen and phosphorus in LPM + top-dressing by CF were 23.5%, 13.2% respectively, more than the others. The LPM + top-dressing by LPM I was most available with potassium, and it leaded the most abundant marketable yield by 55.0 t ha⁻¹ as well. The nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents in bulb were inclined to decrease with progress of onion growth. The nitrogen contents in leaf maximized at the initial growth stage while potassium contents increased at the initial bulbing stage. The LPM application increased pH, nitrate nitrogen, potassium and EC in soil more than chemical fertilizer (CF) did.

Jang, Rae-Ha,Jeong, Heon-Mo,Lee, Eung-Pill,Cho, Kyu-Tae,You, Young-Han The Ecological Society of Korea 2017 Journal of Ecology and Environment Vol.41 No.1

Background: In order to investigate organic carbon distribution, carbon budget, and cycling of the subalpine forest, we studied biomass, organic carbon distribution, litter production, forest floor litter, accumulated soil organic carbon, and soil respiration in Taxus cuspidata forest in Halla National Park from February 2012 to November 2013. Biomass was calculated by using allometric equation and the value was converted to $CO_2$ stocks. Results: The amount of plant organic carbon was $13.60ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$ in 2012 and $14.29ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$ in 2013. And average organic carbon introduced to forest floor through litter production was $0.71ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$. Organic carbon distributed in forest floor litter layer was $0.73ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$ on average and accumulated organic carbon in soil was $51.13ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$ on average. In 2012, Amount of released $CO_2$ from soil to atmosphere was 10.93 ton $CO_2ha^{-1}year^{-1}$. Conclusions: The net ecosystem production based on the difference between net primary production of organic carbon and soil respiration was $-1.74ton\;C\;ha^{-1}year^{-1}$ releasing more carbon than it absorbed.

김선민 ( Sun Min Kim ),손주현 ( Joo Hyun Sohn ),김태엽 ( Tae Yeob Kim ),노영욱 ( Young Wook Roh ),은창수 ( Chang Soo Eun ),전용철 ( Yong Cheol Jeon ),한동수 ( Dong Soo Han ),오영하 ( Young Ha Oh ) 대한간학회 2009 Clinical and Molecular Hepatology(대한간학회지) Vol.15 No.4

목적: 만성 바이러스간질환에서 병의 경과와 예후를 평가하고 치료반응을 예측함에 있어 간섬유화의 진단은 중요하다. 최근 간섬유화 평가에 표준방법이지만 침습적 간생검을 대신하여 여러 가지 비침습적 진단법이 이용되고 있고, 또한 새로운 검사법들이 개발되고 있다. 저자들은 만성 B형 및 C형간염 환자를 대상으로 임상에서 광범위하게 흔히 시행하는 혈액검사와 임상 소견을 이용한 아래와 같은 진단법들만으로 간섬유화를 얼마나 정확하게 평가할 수 있는지 알아보고, 단일 검사로 간섬유화를 평가하는 데 유용하다고 알려져 있는 hyaluronic acid(HA)와 IV형 콜라겐 농도와 비교하여 그 임상적 유용성을 평가하였다. 대상과 방법: 2002년 3월부터 2007년 2월까지 만성 바이러스간 질환으로 간생검을 시행받은 225명의 환자(HBV 180명, HCV 43명, HBV+HCV 2명)를 대상으로 분석하였다. 간생검을 시행하는 날에 말초혈액검사, 혈액응고검사, 혈청생화학검사를 시행하고, 혈중 HA, IV형 콜라겐 농도를 측정하였다. 간섬유화의 정도는 F0(섬유화가 없음), F1(문맥역 섬유화), F2(문맥주변부 섬유화), F3(섬유성 격막) 및 F4(간경변증)의 4단계로 구분하였다. 대상 환자를 F0-1, F2-4 혹은 F0-2, F3-4의 두 집단으로 분류하여 두 집단을 구분하고자 할 때 AAR(AST/ALT ratio), API(age-platelet index), APRI(AST to platelet index), CDS(cirrhosis discriminant score), platelet count, HA, IV형 콜라겐의 예측능을 area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC)값을 이용하여 비교하였다. 결과: 대상환자의 섬유화의 단계는 F0 집단은 17명, F1 집단은 40명, F2 집단은 61명, F3 집단은 74명, F4 집단은 33명이었다. 의미 있는 간섬유화를 F2 이상으로 판단할 때, 의미 있는 섬유화의 예측에 대한 AUROC 값은 APRI=0.822, CDS=0.776, platelet count=0.773, API=0.756, HA=0.749, IV형 콜라겐=0.718, AAR=0.642 순이었고, F3 이상의 광범위한 섬유화 예측에 대한 AUROC값은 CDS=0.835, platelet count=0.795, API=0.794, HA=0.766, AAR=0.711, IV형 콜라겐=0.697, APRI=0.691 순으로 관찰되었다. 결론: 만성 바이러스간질환에서 간섬유화를 평가하는 데 임상 소견 및 혈액검사를 이용한 방법들이 비침습적 진단법 중 단독 검사로도 유용한 것으로 알려져 있는 혈중 HA와 IV형 콜라겐 농도와 비교하여 우월하거나 대등하였다. 특히 APRI는 다른 인자들에 비해 F2 이상의 의미 있는 섬유화를 예측하는 데 가장 유용하였고, CDS는 F3 이상의 광범위한 섬유화를 예측하는 데 가장 유용하였다. Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical performances of noninvasive serum markers for the prediction of liver fibrosis in chronic viral liver diseases. Methods: We analyzed a total of 225 patients with chronic viral liver diseases (180 with hepatitis B virus, 43 with hepatitis C virus, and 2 with hepatitis B+C virus) who underwent a liver biopsy procedure at the Hanyang University Guri Hospital between March 2002 and February 2007. Serum was also obtained at the time of liver biopsy. Liver fibrosis was staged according to the scoring system proposed by the Korean Study Group for the Pathology of Digestive Diseases. Various noninvasive serum markers were evaluated, including the aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ratio (AAR), age-platelet (AP) index, AST/platelet ratio index (APRI), cirrhosis discriminant score (CDS), platelet count, hyaluronic acid (HA), and type IV collagen. Results: There were 17, 40, 61, 74, and 33 patients at stages F0, F1, F2, F3, and F4, respectively. The overall diagnostic accuracies of each marker, as determined by the area under receiver operating characteristics curves, were APRI=0.822, CDS=0.776, platelet count=0.773, AP index=0.756, HA=0.749, type IV collagen=0.718, and AAR=0.642 for predicting significant fibrosis (≥F2); and CDS=0.835, platelet count=0.795, AP index=0.794, HA=0.766, AAR=0.711, type IV collagen=0.697, and APRI=0.691 for predicting extensive fibrosis (≥F3). Conclusions: Conclusions: All noninvasive serum markers evaluated in this study were useful for predicting significant or extensive liver fibrosis in chronic viral liver diseases. In particular, APRI was most useful for the prediction of significant fibrosis, and CDS was most useful for the prediction of extensive fibrosis. (Korean J Hepatol 2009;15:454-463)

Ha ,, Seongmin,Kim ,, Jae‐,Kwang,Choi, Aram,Kim, Youngsik,Lee, Kyu Tae WILEY‐VCH Verlag 2014 ChemPhysChem Vol.15 No.10

<P>Impressive developments have been made in the past a few years toward the establishment of Na-ion batteries as next-generation energy-storage devices and replacements for Li-ion batteries. Na-based cells have attracted increasing attention owing to low production costs due to abundant sodium resources. However, applications of Na-ion batteries are limited to large-scale energy-storage systems because of their lower energy density compared to Li-ion batteries and their potential safety problems. Recently, Na-metal cells such as Na-metal halide and Na-air batteries have been considered to be promising for use in electric vehicles owing to good safety and high energy density, although less attention is focused on Na-metal cells than on Na-ion cells. This Minireview provides an overview of the fundamentals and recent progress in the fields of Na-metal halide and Na-air batteries, with the aim of providing a better understanding of new electrochemical systems.</P>

Akutagawa committed suicide on July 24, 1917, while his work includes "Aru-a-ho-no-issho", "Sai-ho-no-hito" and others. In particular, "Ha-gu-ru-ma" of these works is only a pure fiction. This fiction is composed of "Rain Coat", "Fu-ku-shu", "Yo-ru", "Ma-da?", "Aka-bikari" and "Hi-ko-ki, of which its each chapter may be considered as an independent and short piece of composition. It shows that his gruesome mental image based on suicide develops by connecting with several images without any consistent development of plot. In addition, its background includes the continued fear and touch of invisible hand that controls him from the outside by repeating fatalistic coincidences such as contrast between white and black, silver-colored wing, or a man with rain coat symbolizing death and despair on the basis of an impressed illusion which is a fully driving toothed wheel within the field of vision. His "Ha-gu-ru-ma" is a work that implies the human sin, despair, lonrliness based on suicide and even God thing.

Regeneration of Bovine Mammary Gland in Immunodeficient Mice by Transplantation of Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cells mixed with Matrigel

Woo Tae Ha1,Hyun Jung Park,Won-Young Lee,Ha Yeon Jeong,Hyuk Song 한국동물생명공학회(구 한국동물번식학회) 2017 Reproductive & Developmental Biology(Supplement) Vol.41 No.2

With the global demand for dairy protein for consumption growing annually, there has been increasing activity in the research field of dairy protein synthesis and production. From a manipulation perspective, it is more difficult to use live cattle for laboratory studies on the production of milk as well as of dairy protein such as casein, as compared with using laboratory animals like rodents. Therefore, we aimed to develop a mouse model of bovine mammary alveolar ducts for laboratory-scale studies. We studied the formation of the bovine mammary gland ductal structure by transplanting the MAC-T bovine alveolar cell line into mice. MAC-T cells (1×107) were suspended in Matrigel and injected into the dorsal tissue of 8-week-old male BALB/C nude mice. Histological analysis of tissue dissected from the MAC-T cell-transplanted mice after 6 weeks showed the typical morphology of the tubuloalveolar female gland, as well as glands made up of branching ducts that were surrounded by smooth muscle with small alveoli budding off the ducts. In addition, the epithelial markers CK14 and CK18 were expressed within the duct-like structure. Prolactin was detected in the duct interior in these CK14+ and CK18+ cells but not in the non-transplanted MAC-T cells. These results showed that duct-like tissue had been successfully formed after 6 weeks of transplantation of the CK14+ and CK18+ MAC-T cells into mice dorsal tissue. This mouse model will be a useful tool for further research on the bovine mammary gland.
