<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has an anti-inflammatory action in acute pancreatitis (AP). However, its mechanism of action and natural compounds/drugs to induce HO-1 in pancreas are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the regulatory mechanisms of HO-1 during AP using desoxo-narchinol-A (DN), the natural compound inducing HO-1 in the pancreas. Female C57/BL6 Mice were intraperitoneally injected with supramaximal concentrations of cerulein (50 μg/kg) hourly for 6 h to induce AP. DMSO or DN was administered intraperitoneally, then mice were sacrificed 6 h after the final cerulein injection. Administration of DN increased pancreatic HO-1 expression through activation of activating protein-1, mediated by mitogen-activated protein kinases. Furthermore, DN treatment reduced the pancreatic weight-to-body weight ratio as well as production of digestive enzymes and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Inhibition of HO-1 by tin protoporphyrin IX abolished the protective effects of DN on pancreatic damage. Additionally, DN treatment inhibited neutrophil infiltration into the pancreas via regulation of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 (CXCL2) by HO-1. Our results suggest that DN is an effective inducer of HO-1 in the pancreas, and that HO-1 regulates neutrophil infiltration in AP via CXCL2 inhibition.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Desoxo-narchinol-A (DN) is a natural compound of HO-1 inducer in pancreas. </LI> <LI> Mechanism of DN-induced HO-1 is mediated by MAPK/Activator Protein-1/HO-1 signaling. </LI> <LI> DN-induced HO-1 blocks neutrophil infiltration into pancreas via inhibition of CXCL2. </LI> <LI> DN inhibits cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) and AP-associated lung injury. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

Stain improvement in the white button mushroom ‘Seolgang’ and its varietal characteristics in Agaricus bisporus

Byung-Joo Lee,Mi-Ae Lee,Yong-Gyun Kim,Kwang-Won Lee,Yong-Pyo Lim,Byung-Eui Lee,Ho-Yeon Song 한국버섯학회 2012 한국버섯학회지 Vol.10 No.4

The button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) is one of the most widely cultivated important edible mushroom species. In the breeding of new button mushroom, ‘Seolgang’ was developed by crossing two monokaryons ‘CM020913-27’ and ‘SSU423-31’. Because of the secondarily homothallism, only a small percentage of the basidia produce 3 or 4 spores, which are mostly haploid (n) and do not fruit. Single spore cultures derived from these types of spores produce a vegetative mycelium that also contain a variable number of genetically identical nuclei per cell called monokaryon. The lack of clamp connections between monokaryon and dikaryon required a series of mycelial culture and fruiting test. After crossing, hybrids were cultivated on a small scale and on a commercial scale at a farm. For this, the spawn was made by a commercial spawn producer and the spawned compost by a commercial compost producer. Mycelial growth of ‘Seolgang’ on CDA was better at 20℃ and 25℃ when it was compared with that of ‘505 Ho’. The mature cap shape of new strain ‘Seolgang’ is oblate spheroid and the immature cap shape is round to oblate spheroid. The cap diameter was 41.2 mm on average. In comparison with white strain ‘505 Ho’, the strain had a yield that was 9% higher. It produced fruiting bodies which had a higher weight on average per fruiting body and were 19% firmer with a good shelf life. Days of fruiting body were 3-4 days later than those of ‘505 Ho’. The physical characteristics such as elasticity, chewiness, adhesiveness were better than that of ‘505 Ho’. Genetic analysis of the new strain ‘Seolgang’ showed different profiles compared to ‘505 Ho’, CM02913-27, SSU413-31, when RAPD primers A02 and O04 were used.

Chlorpromazine이 백서 해마에서 전기경련 충격에 의한 MAPK 타이로신 인산화에 미치는 영향

주연호,정성훈,전송희,강웅구,김용식,김상욱,박주배 大韓神經精神醫學會 1997 신경정신의학 Vol.36 No.2

Object : In order to examine the interaction mechanisms of electroconvulsive shock(ECS) and antipsychotic drug at the level of molecular biology, we observed the effect of chlorpromazine pre-treatment on the activation of mitogen activated protein kinase(MAPK) induced by electroconvulsive shock(ECS) in rat hippocampus Method : Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups. To the experimental group chlorpromazine(20㎎/㎏) was given intraperitoneally, and to the control distilled water was given instead. Thirty minutes later, ECS was given and the hippocampus was dissected out 2 minutes thereafter. Immunoblotting with antiphosphotyrosine antibody was carried out, and the signal intensity at 42kDa band was quantitized using densitometer. The obtained result was compared by student t-test between the experimental and the control group. The absolute amount of MAPK was measured by immunoblotting with anti-MAPK antibody. Result : The tyrosine phosphorylation of MAPK reached peak at 2 minutes after ECS. However, in the chlorpromazine pre-treated group, the peak level of MAPK tyrosine phosphorylation was significantly attenuated(t=-3.12, df=14, p=0.008) compared to the control. In contrast to this, the absolute amount of MAPK did not differ between the pretreated and the control group. Conclusion : Chlorpromazine attenuated the tyrosine phosphorylation of MAPK by ECS. This finding seems to be related to the fact that chlorpromazine pre-treatment changed the cfos expression by ECS in rat brain. Antipsychotic drug and ECS might interact at the level of MAPK signal transduction system, and this might explained the observed synergistic effect of two treatment modality.

정신분열병 환자의 주관적 증상과 객관적 정신병리와의 관련성

주연호,김용식,정성훈,신민섭,이창인 大韓神經精神醫學會 2001 신경정신의학 Vol.40 No.4

연구목적 : 주관적 증상평가도구인 K-FBF(Kyung Hee-Frankfurter Beschwerde-Fragebogen)가 정신분열병 환자의 어떤 증상 영역을 반영하는지, 특히 정신분열병의 병태생리와 밀접한 관련을 가지며 객관적 평가도구로는 파악이 어려운 음성 증상 또는 인지 장애의 측면들을 반영하는지 조사하고자, 정신분열병 환자의 K-FBF 결과를 객관적 정신병리 평가도구인 PANSS(Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale for Schizophrenia), 대표적인 자기보고식 다차원 증상목록(multidimensional self-report symptom inventory)인 간이정신진단검사(SCL-90-R)의 평가 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 방 법 : 고졸이상의 학력으로 DSM-IV진단기준에 의한 정신분열병 환자 중 급성기가 경과한 66명을 대사으로 연구를 수행하였다. K-FBF, SCL-90-R을 시행한 날, 두 명의 정신과 의사가 PANSS를 수행하였다. K-FBF의 질문항목에 대한 반응양상을 조사하고, 10개 소척도에 대하여 요인분석을 시행하였다. K-FBF와 연령, 성별, 병식과의 상관관계를 조사하였다. 또한, K-FBF, PANSS, SCL-90-R제반 척도간에 상관관계 분석을 시행하였다. 결 과 : K-FBF는 높은 연령일수록 호소하는 항목의 수나 그 정도가 감소하였으며, 유병기간을 조절변수로 삼았을 때도 동일한 결과를 보였다. K-FBF의 소척도를 요인분석하여 두개의 합산척도를 추출, 각각 자각된 고통(RD, Recognized Distress)과 지각왜곡(PA, Perceptual Alteration)으로 명명하였다. 위의 합산척도와 PANSS의 상관관계에서, K-FBF 표준화 총점을 조절변수로 하여 편상관을 조사한 결과 PA척도와 PANSS 음성척도가 상관관계를 보였다. 이는 Huber의 기본증상이란 정신분열병의 음성증상을 주관적 측면에서 접근한 것이라는 평가와 관련된다. 한편, K-FBF표준화 총점과 SCL-90-R총점은 강한 상관관계를 나타낸 반면, SCL-90-R총점과 PANSS총점은 비록 통계적으로는 유의하지만 매우 미미한 상관관계만을 보였다. 따라서 평가척도의 상관성은 그 내용보다는 평가하는 주체에 더 큰 영향을 받는다고 판단되었다. 결 론 : 본 연구결과 K-FBF로 측정된 Huber의 기본증상은 정신분열병의 음성증상을 보다 더 반영하는 것으로 평가되었으며, 또 객관적 평가도구인 PANSS보다는 자기보고형 도구인 SCL-90-R과 더 높은 상관관계를 보인 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 본 연구결과의 일반화를 위해서는 다른 질병단계, 다른 인구학적 변인을 가진 환자들을 대상으로 한 연구가 계속되어야 할 것이다. Objectives : Kyung Hee-Frankfurter Beschwerde-Fragebogen(K-FBF) is a representative subjective symptom measuring tool of schizophrenic patients. We performed psychopathology measurements using K-FBF, Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS) and Symptom Checklist-90-Revised(SCL-90-R) in patients with schizophrenia and then compared the results of these three examinations one another, in order to examine which psychopathologic aspects K-FBF might reflect and to measure the possibility whether this instrument reflect the negative symptoms or cognitive impairments, which are difficult to measure by conventional objective instruments measuring psychopathology. Methods : All 66 patients satisfying DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia, were approached. Their education level was more than high school and they were not in the acute stage of schizophrenia. They performed K-FBF and SCL-90-R, and at the same day, they were interviewed by one of both psychiatrists using PANSS. We examined the patterns of K-FBF response and performed facor analysis about 10 subscales. We examined the correlation between K-FBF and age, sex and insight. Also, we performed correlation analysis among the K-FBF, PANSS and SCL-90-R. Results : As for K-FBF, with increasing age, the number of positive response items and the symptom severity were decreased. Even when controlling prevalence period as control variable, the correlation remained unchanged. Performing factor analysis to the K-FBF subscales, we created 2 factors, ie summation subscales. We named those recognized distress(RD) and perceptual alteration(PA) each. Using K-FBF standardized total scores as controlling variable, we performed partial correlation between PA and PANSS negative symptom scale. The result was PA and PANSS have statistically significant correlation. This correspons with the view that Huber's basic symptoms are reflecting subjective approach of negative symptoms of schizophrenia. While K-FBF standardized total scores and PANSS total scores had statistically strong correlations, SCL-90-R total scores and PANSS total scores had statistically significant, but very mild correlations. So, we had the judgement that the correlations among the psychopathology measurement tools are more influenced by the rater than the contents of tools. Conclusion : We concluded that Huber's basic symptoms, measured by K-FBF, reflect more negative symptoms of schizophrenia than other symptoms. And K-FBF has more correlation with the PANSS, objective psychopathology. Measuring tool, than the SCL-90-R, self-report quetionnaire. But, more studies using patients with another disease stages and another demographic variables are needed in order to generalize the results of this study.

Clozapine 투여후 발생한 급성 간염

장순주,이호택,백주희,이상연 대한신경정신의학회 1999 신경정신의학 Vol.38 No.1

Clozapine 투여 후에 급성 간염이 발생했던 두 명의 환자에 대한 증례로, 두 명 모두 이전에 약물에 이한 간염이 발생한 과거력이 있었던 환자로서 무증사의 급성 간염이 발생한 후에 보존적 치료 후에 호전 되었다. 간염이 발생한 후에 간효소수치에 대해 정기적으로 검사를 하면서, 사용하고 있던 clozapine의 용량을 낮춘 후 간장제를 투여함으로써 간효소수치는 정상화되었다. Clozapine과 비교하면 clozapine은 간세포의 cytochrome P450에 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각되고 있고 chlorpromazine은 간내 담즙저류에 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각된다. 과거 약물에 의한 간염을 경험한 환자는 clozapine에 의해 유도된 감염에 보다 취약성을 보일 가능성이 있으며, 이런 관점에서 이전의 간 기능 이상을 경험했거나 물질 사용 장애 등의 병발이 있을 경우 정기적인 간기능 평가가 임상적으로 중요할 것으로 판단된다. The authors report two cases of clzapine-induced acute hepatitis. Two patients developed asymptomatic hepatitis and got better with conservative care. We decreased the dosage of clozapine and added hepatic protections, resulting in normalized laboratory findings. The authors also reviewed side effects of clozapine in this report. We reviewed the suggested mechanism of either clozapine or chlorpromazine-induced hepatitis. clozapine influences the liver cell via cytochrome P 450 and chlorpromazine does so via mild cholestasis. There may be a possibility that a patient who has experienced drug-induced hepatitis is vulnerable to clozapine-induced acute hepatitis. In this respect, those who have experienced drug-induced hepatitis must be observed more closely.

자궁내막에 발생한 점막 연관 림프조직 (MALT) 림프종 1예

전균호,조현진,박성균,김천복,김대연,김종혁,김용만,김영탁,목정은,남주현 대한부인종양 콜포스코피학회 2003 Journal of Gynecologic Oncology Vol.14 No.4

Non-Hodgkin's 림프종의 약 40%는 결절외(extranodal) 림프종으로 대개 위장관에서 발생하며 이들 중 점막 연관 림프조직(mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue: MALT)에서 기원한 림프종은 MALT 림프종으로 분류된다. 위 외의 부위에서 원발성으로 발생하는 MALT 림프종은 매우 드물지만 실제 거의 모든 신체 장기에 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있는데, 가장 흔한 부위인 위 외에도 폐, 갑상선, 침샘, 눈물샘에 발생하고, 드물게 안구, 유방, 방광, 신장, 흉선 등에도 보고된 바 있다. MALT 림프종은 오랜 기간동안 원격 전이하지 않고 국소 병변으로 남아 있는 특징이 있어 치료 방향 또한 국소 병변의 치료에 집중되며, 예후도 림프절 기원의 림프종에 비해 양호한 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 저자 등은 자궁 내막에 원발성으로 발생한 MALT 림프종 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 이를 보고하고자 한다. Mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma can rarely develop primarily in extranodal sites other than stomach which is the most common site for it. Other rare primary sites are small intestine, colorectum, esophagus, lung, thyroid, salivary gland, lacrymal gland, breast and skin. MALT lymphoma represents a distinct clinicopathologic features: it is usually localized to their original site for a long time and shows much more favorable prognosis than lymphoma at other site, but some MALT lymphoma can arise simultaneously or successively in different organ or give rise to another MALT lymphoma of other organ and can be multifocally disseminated or recurred. We report a very rare case of high grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of the uterine endometrium, which was confirmed by immunohistochemical assay.
