This paper deals with a systematic approach to GA-PI Controller design for static VAR compensator(SVC) using genetic algorithm(GA) to improve system stability. Genetic algorithms(GAs) are search algorithms based on the mechanics of natural selection and natural genetics. To verify the robustness of the proposed method, considered dynamic response of terminal speed deviation and terminal voltage by applying a power fluctuation. Thus, we proved usefulness of GA-PI controller design th improve the stability of single machine-bus with SVC system.

NO(nitric oxide) plays an important role as neurotransmitter or cytokine, and pathologic factor for some diseases by the large amount production with iNOS(inducible NO synthase) expression in macrophages or glial cells. The expression of iNOS is regulated by various cytokines, protein kinases and transcription factors. In this experiment, to investigate the roles of progein kinase and NF-kB for iNOS expression, the effects of PMA(phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate), cAMP, and various protein kinase inhibitors on LPS(lipopolysaccharide)-induced iNOS mRNAN expression and nuclear NF-kB binding complex were examined in C6 glial cells and RAW 264.7 cells. In C6 glial cells, iNOS mRNA expression by LPS was induced from 1 hour and peak at 3 hour after treatment. In RAW 264.7 cells, the mRNA was observed from 3 hour and peak at 6 hour. PMA enhanced markedly LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression and NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells, but did not much influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression in RAW 264.7 cells, in spite of increased LPS-induced NF-kB binding complex at 30 min. cAMP(dibutyryl cAMP) did not much influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression, by increased LPS-induced NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells. However, in RAW 264.7 cells, cAMP increased slightly LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression without change of NF-kB binding complex. Staurosporine did not influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression and NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells, but in RAW 264.7 cells, decreased LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression and NF-kB binding complex. Ro-31-8220 did not much influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression and NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells, but in RAW 264.7 cells, decreased significantly LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression in spite of increased LPS-induced NF-kB binding complex for 3hours. G 6976 did not much influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression with decreased NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells, but in RAW 264.7 cells, decreased iNOS mRNA expression without influence on LPS-induced NF-kB binding complex. Genistein did not influence on LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression and NF-kB binding complex in C6 glial cells, but in RAW 264.7 cells, decreased LPS-induced iNOS mRNA expression inspite of increased NF-kB binding complex. These results suggest that LPS-induced regulation of iNOS expression or NF-kB activity in C6 glial cells, might be different from RAW 264.7 cells through various protein kinases or other factors.

Kim, Sang-Wook,Park, Jeong-Hoon,Yang, Seung-Dae,Hur, Min-Goo,Kim, Yu-Seok,Chai, Jong-Seo,Kim, Young-Soon,Yu, Kook-Hyun Korean Chemical Society 2004 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.25 No.8

Hypericin (1,3,4,6,8,13-hexahydroxy-10,11-dimethylphenanthro[1,10,9,8-opqra]perylene-7,14-dione), an antidepressant which is also known to be a potent protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor was synthesized as a precursor for radioiodine labeling via two step reactions. Malignant glioma cells express higher PKC activity compared to untransformed glial cell. Here we report the synthesis and radioiodine labeling of hypericin as a potential brain tumor imaging radiopharmaceutical. The reference compound, 2-iodohypericin, and its radiolabelled analogues, 2-[$^{123}I$]iodohypericin and 2-[$^{124}I$]iodohypericin have been prepared by the reaction of hypericin with NaI or [$^{123}I$]NaI or [$^{124}I$]NaI. The labeling yield was 60-65% for each analogue and the optimal reaction time was 10 min. The purification and isolation of the labelled products were achieved by a reversed-phase HPLC.

Consistent and Specific Suppression of Mucin Release from Cultured Hamster Tracheal Surface Epithelial Cells by Poly-L-Lysine

Lee, Choong-Jae,Lee, Jae-Heun,Seok, Jeong-Ho,Hur, Gang-Min,Park, Ji-Sun,Bae, So-Hyun,Jang, Hyeon-Seok,Park, Sang-Cheol The Korean Society of Pharmacology 2003 The Korean Journal of Physiology & Pharmacology Vol.7 No.3

Poly-L-lysine (PLL) was reported to suppress mucin release from airway goblet cells during 30 min treatment period. In this study, we investigated whether PLL consistently suppresses mucin release from cultured airway goblet cells during 24 h after 30 min treatment and also specifically suppresses the release of mucin without any effects on the other releasable glycoproteins. Confluent primary hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^3H$-glucosamine for 24 h and chased for 30 min in the presence of varying concentrations of PLL to assess the effects on $^3H$-mucin release and on the total elution profile of the treated culture medium. The total mucin content during 24 h after 30 min treatment of PLL was assesed to investigate the consistency of effects. PLL did not affect the release of the other releasable glycoproteins whose molecular weights were less than mucin, and decreased the total mucin content during 24 h after 30 min treatment. We conclude that PLL can specifically suppress mucin release from cultured airway goblet cells and the suppression on mucin release is consistent. This finding suggests that PLL might be used as a specific airway mucin-regulating agent by directly acting on airway mucin-secreting cells.

( Min Seok Hur ),( Yong Beom Choe ),( Kyu Joong Ahn ),( Yang Won Lee ) 대한피부과학회 2019 Annals of Dermatology Vol.31 No.4

Background: Although oral antihistamines (H1-histamine receptor antagonists) are the main treatment option for pruritus in general skin dermatosis, their effect in treating pruritus of atopic dermatitis (AD) has not yet been established. Objective: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of combined therapy of H1-antihistamines and topical steroids. Methods: We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL databases for articles published from 1967 to 2015. We identified 1,206 studies and assessed their titles, abstract, and full-text. Random effects meta-analysis was used to calculate mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: Two studies satisfying the inclusion criteria of antihistamine therapy with mandatory topical steroid use were selected. Comparing antihistamine monotherapy with combination therapy, patients treated with the addition of antihistamine to topical corticosteroids showed a statistically significant clinical improvement (standard MD, -0.24; 95% CI, -0.42 to -0.05; p=0.01). Conclusion: H1-antihistamines may have a synergistic effect when combined with topical steroids by influencing various associative factors of chronic pruritus in AD.

While acute paronychia is usually caused by bacterial infection, chronic paronychia is a multifactorial inflammatory disease of the nail apparatus due to irritants and allergens. Recurrent acute paronychia may evolve into chronic paronychia. A 23-year-old female was referred to our dermatologic clinic with an erythematous and edematous proximal nail fold of right forth finger. She had been treated with nail extraction and antifungal agent in the diagnosis of acute paronychia due to bacterial and fungal infection. The lesion seemed to be improved but aggravated with abscess formation. We drained pus and carried out wound culture and KOH smear, but we could not get pathogenic findings. We tried cefadroxil and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs with nail extraction. Despite of repeated treatments, her problem didn’t seem to be improved. For management of recurrent acute paronychia, we decided to add anti-pseudomonal agent to previous treatment. The lesion has kept improved state without relapse. We report an interesting case of recurrent acute paronychia refractory to treatment with antibiotics, antifungal agents and surgical management.

[P056] A case of acquired palmoplantar keratoderma treated with keratolytics and retinoids

( Min Seok Hur ),( Joo Ran Hong ),( Hye In Cheon ),( Song Hee Han ),( Byung Gon Choi ),( Hae Jeong Youn ),( Min Jung Kim ),( Yang Won Lee ),( Yong Beom Choe ),( Kyu Joong Ahn ) 대한피부과학회 2017 대한피부과학회 학술발표대회집 Vol.69 No.1

Palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) are disorders with variable causes that are characterized by abnormal hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles. They have been classified as either hereditary or acquired PPKs. The clinical characteristics of acquired PPKs are non-hereditary, non-frictional skin thickening involving acral areas. A 33-year-old woman presented with nonsymptomatic hyperkeratotic patches on palms and soles. She had neither medical history nor family history of keratoderma. We had applied topical keratolytic agent (salicylic acid) for four months, followed by alitretinoin. After four months of the treatment with alitretinoin, she showed clinical improvement. Herein we report a patient with PPK with unknown etiology that led to the diagnosis of acquired PPK. This report would be helpful to suggest successful treatment of acquired PPKs with keratolytics and retinoids.

( Min Seok Hur ),( Hye In Cheon ),( Byung Gon Choi ),( Song Hee Han ),( Min Jung Kim ),( Hae Jeong Youn ),( Soo Young Kim ),( Nam Kyung Roh ),( Yang Won Lee ),( Yong Beom Choe ),( Kyu Joong Ahn ) 대한피부과학회 2016 대한피부과학회 학술발표대회집 Vol.68 No.2

Background: Herpes zoster (HZ) infection can significantly impair the quality of life of the affected individuals, and its treatment imposes a considerable cost burden on the health-care system and on society at large. However, there is little information on the perception of this disease and the acceptability of vaccines in Korea. Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the awareness of HZ and its vaccine, and to identify factors associated with the acceptability of the HZ vaccine among outpatients of dermatology clinics. Methods: A questionnaire-based survey was conducted on 607 outpatients who visited the dermatologic clinics. Results: The responses of the patients revealed a high awareness of HZ (85.4%) but a relatively low knowledge about HZ and its vaccine (42.3%). The HZ vaccination rate among patients aged ≥50 years was 9%. A history of HZ infection, being older, and greater knowledge about HZ and its vaccine were associated with a higher HZ vaccine acceptability. Of those who had not been vaccinated, 58.3% were interested in receiving the vaccine. The most frequent reason for this interest was “severe sequelae,” followed by “knowing someone who has HZ” and “recommendation from a doctor.” High cost was the most common reason for unwillingness to receive the vaccination. Conclusion: Despite a high awareness of HZ, vaccine acceptability was extremely low among this study cohort. Vaccination acceptability would be improved by encouraging doctors to educate elderly patients about the disease and the availability of vaccination, and by the provision of insurance coverage for HZ vaccination.

There are diverse in vivo assessment methods of the water content of the skin, however, in vitro assessment method of cellular water content has not been largely investigated and developed yet. Objectives: We developed a novel in vitro simple assessment method of cellular water content in keratinocytes using coloring silica gel. Methods: We raised question about three aspects; the first is that whether the level of color change of silica gel can be correlated with the level of water content, the second is that whether the changed level of color can be quantifiable, the third is that whether the cellular water of keratinocytes can be absorbed into silica gel. We simply confirmed that its own ‘Red’ color of silica gel was changed to yellow in a H2O concentration dependent manner. Results: The intensity level of red color area of silica gel was significantly decreased as the number of keratinocyte increased. Also the level of its red color was different between undifferentiated keratinocyte and differentiated keratinocytes. Conclusion: These data indicate that the cellular water of keratinocyte can be absorbed into silica gel, and the level of color change of it is statistically correlated with the level of water content of keratinocytes.
