The Chinese Hamster Ovarian cells CHO-K1 are one of the most extensively used cells for the evaluation of gene expression and toxicology. However, these cells are frequently used for biomedical research without consideration of their cytogenetic characteristics. Therefore, we carried out to investigate the karyologic profiles, the frequency and type of chromosome aberration, and the distribution of telomeric DNA on chromosomes of the CHO-K1 cells. The GTG banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization on CHO-K1 cells were performed to characterize the karyotype and the distribution of telomeric DNA The present study revealed that the chromosome modal number of CHO-K1 cells was 2n=20; eight chromosomes appeared to be identical with those of the normal Chinese hamster, whereas the remaining 12 chromosomes were shown to be translocated, deleted, inversed, or rearranged from Chinese hamster chromosomes. The telomeric DNA on CHO-K1 chromosomes was intensively distributed at the centromeres rather than the ends of chromosomes. In addition, three chromosomes had interstitial telomeres and one marker chromosome entirely consisted of telomeric DNAs. The frequency and type of chromosome aberrations in CHO-K1 cells were examined. Of the 822 metaphase spreads, 68 (8.3%) cells resulted in chromosome aberrations of which the chromosome breakage was the most frequently occurred.

조영걸,이희정,오원일,강은숙,김은순,김영봉,조양자,조군제 大韓免疫學會 1996 大韓免疫學會誌 Vol.18 No.2

A unique sialic-acid-binding lectin from giant African snail Achatina fulica(AF) has a T cell mitogenicity. It was also noted that acetone extracts of AF have a anti-HIV effect in vitro. Thirty HIV-infected individuals(HIV+) were treated with AF extract(40% Chunho extract) for average 5. 5 months. Peripheral blood sampling and questionnaire were done every month after take. There was a significant decrease of WBC from 4 months after take. As a result, lymphocyte counts also decreased(P<0.01). However, there was a significant increase of CD4+T cell percentage from 1 month(P<0.01). The mean increase of CD4+T cell count was significant for first one month(39/pl)(P<0.05). Body weight also increased significantly(P<0.05). Over 90% HIV+ ex-pressed symptomatic improvement and wanted to be treated with AF extract continuously after the end of this study. In one HIV+ treated with AF for 19 months, the increases of CD4+T cell percentage and counts over 11 times after AF extract take were mean 67% and 85%, respectively, compared to baseline value. These data strongly suggest that aqueous AF extract has a immune enhancing effect on HN+.

한국전쟁과 지방화단

조은정(Cho Eun-Jung) 부산대학교 한국민족문화연구소 2010 한국민족문화 Vol.38 No.-

1950년에 발발한 한국전쟁은 식민지에서 벗어난 지 얼마 되지 않은 상태였던 한국 사회의 많은 것을 변화시켰고 미술인의 활동에도 일정 부분 변화를 가져왔다. 월북과 월남 그리고 부산으로의 피난으로 대표되는 작품활동 지역의 변화는 근거지를 잃은 작가들이 고향과 경제력을 상실하게 함으로써 개인적인 패배감을 강화시켰을 뿐만 아니라 심리적인 공황까지 야기시켜 작가 자신의 세계를 개척하기 어렵게 만들었다. 하지만 전쟁 중에도 화가들은 다방에서 개인전이나 그룹전을 열어 창작열을 불태웠으며 대한미술협회라는 단체를 결성하여 전열을 정비하기도 하였다. 그림 그릴 재료가 곤궁하고 생활이 어려운 상황에서도 미술에 열중할 수 있다는 프로의식과 예술에의 의지를 볼 수 있는 이들 전시문화에는 당시의 상황에 대응한 작가의 현실 인식이 반영되어 있다. 현실 도피로서의 순수에의 집념, 무능한 가장으로서 현실적으로 해낼 수 있는 유일한 일인 그림그리기, 그 어느 것이든 한국전쟁기 화단의 활동은 멈추지 않았는데 이는 상당히 중요하며 고무적인 일이다. 다만 이념의 갈등이 빚어낸 전쟁이고 자신의 국토에서 발발한 전쟁이지만 정작 자신들은 전쟁의 주체가 되지 못한 전쟁이 한국전쟁이었다는 뼈아픈 사실을 감안하지 않으면 안 된다. 전쟁이 건국초기에 비하여 한층 더 강화된 반공이념을 정당화시키는 상황에서 미술단체와 미술제도 그리고 개개인은 이념으로부터 자유로울 수 없었다. 이념적 성향에 따라 세속적 성공과 좌절이 결정되고 마는 한계 상황에 설 수 밖에 없게 되었던 것이다. 인적 구성의 변화는 남한 내에서도 마산에 있던 임호나 이준이 부산으로 왔고, 또 휴전과 함께 이준은 서울에서 열린 제2회 〈국전〉에 화려하게 등장하였다. 미술인의 이동은 월남이나 월북 이외에 남한 내에서도 지방에의 정착과 지방미술인의 상경으로 이루어졌다. 피난민으로서 미술가들의 위상은 거주지를 옮겼음에도 끊임없이 전시를 하거나 미술작품의 창작을 쉬지 않음으로써 미술가로서의 정체성을 유지한 것이었다. 일찍이 미술에서 그렇게 활발하게 직접적으로 중앙과 지방의 교류가 이루어졌던 적은 없었다. 미술인들은 자신이 거주하는 곳의 환경과 의미를 느꼈고 그것을 어떠한 방식이든 작품에 투사하였다. 박고석의 부산의 여러 장소에 대한 풍경이나 이중섭의 제주도 풍경이 그러한 예이다. 또한 부산에 거주하는 작가들에게 다른 지역 작가들 특히 서울에서 피난온 모더니즘 계열의 자극은 자신이 속한 지역의 색채에 대한 깊이있는 논의로 이어져 전통에 대한 관심과 민족적인 미술의 확산으로 이어졌던 것도 주목할 일이다. 지방과 중앙 혹은 피난민 화가들과 지역작가들과의 관계는 일방적 영향관계로 파악했을 때, 상대에 대한 부정으로 작용하여 문화적 교류 혹은 충격이라는 사실조차 부정하게 되는 것을 본다. 그리고 당시에조차 그러한 시각은 중앙의 모더니즘 대 지방의 전통이라는 이원적인 시각을 양산하는 배경이 되었다. The Korean War that broke out in 1950 had brought a lot of changes into the Korean society, as it was only a while after becoming decolonized. It also had affected certain parts of artists’ activities. Due to evacuating toward north or south over the border, and to Busan, artists loosing their hometown and economic strength were the changes in major regions of creating pieces. Therefore, it didn’t only enhancethe sense of defeat, but also caused psychological panic so it made the artists even more difficult to develop their own world. However, artists opened private or group exhibitions in coffee shops to express their creativity. They also formed a group called ‘Korean Association of Art’ and settled the combative fervor. Artists’culture of exhibitions reflected their cognitive reality of coping with the circumstances during that time and it proved that even with scarce art materialsand difficult living environment, they could concentrate on art as professionals and it represented their will of art. Being deeply attached to purity to avoid the reality, as being an incompetence head of a household, the only thing they would do was drawing; however, none of the reasons stopped them from participating in the world of artists during the Korean War, which was really important and encouraging. Even Korean War was aroused in Korea, Korea wasnot the main subject of the war, and it started due to ideological conflicts. Therefore, the fact that Korean War was a definite agony should not be taken out of consideration. It was not possible for artists’organization, art institutions, or individuals to express their ideology fully after the war, since the anti-communism sentiment had become even more justified, compared to initial stage of establishing a country. They had to face the limited reality where secular success and breakdown were decided by their ideological propensity. The change in formation of human footsteps had also existed in South Korea; Lim, Ho and Lee, Jun had movedto Busan from Masan, and as armistice started, Lee, Jun had remarkably exposed himself through 2n the National Art Exhibition in Seoul. The movement of artists was not only crossing over the border to South or North Korea, but some artists settled in rural regions, and some came up to Seoul from rural areas. Even changing their place of residence as refugees, artists maintained their identity by opening art exhibitions constantly and not giving up on creating artworks. There never had been that direct and active way of interchange in art between the rural and central regions. Artists were impressed by their surrounding environments and significances, thus they portrayed it in their artworks in anyway. Several scenery of Busan by Park, Go-suk, and Jeju Island’s scenery by Lee, Jung-Sup are the examples. Also, the artists of modernism line from other regions’, especially Seoul, had stimulated artists living in Busan. It should be noted that, the fact of having in-depth discussion about their regional coloration among the artists had led them to become more interested in the tradition, and it even extended the field of art. By understanding the relations between the rural and central, the refugee artists and regional artists, respectively, were unilaterally influential relations they even disagreed on the fact that it was cultural exchange or cultural shock since they impactedeach other negatively. Even during that time, that kind of viewpoint had become the background of setting the ‘central modernism vs. rural tradition’ dualistic perception.

Three-Dimensional Porous Collagen/Chitosan Complex Sponge for Tissue Engineering

Kim, Sung Eun,Cho, Yong Woo,Kang, Eun Jung,Kwon, Ick Chan,Lee, Eunhee Bae,Kim, Jung Hyun,Chung, Hesson,Jeong, Seo Young The Korean Fiber Society 2001 Fibers and polymers Vol.2 No.2

A three-dimensional, porous collagen/chitosan complex sponge was prepared to closely simulate basic extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes, collagen and glycosaminoglycan. The complex sponge was prepared by a lyophilization method and had the regular network with highly porous structure, suitable for cell adhesion and growth. The pores were well interconnected, and their distribution was fairly homogeneous. The complex sponge was crosslinked using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) to increase its boilogical stability and enhance its mechanical properties. The crosslinking medium has a great effect on the inner structure of the sponge. The homogeneous, porous structure of the sponge was remarkably collapsed in an aqueous crosslinking medium. However, the morphology of the sponge remained almost intact in a water/ethanol mixture crosslinking milieu. Mechanical properties of the collagen/chitosan sponge were significantly enhanced by EDC-mediated crosslinking. The potential of the sponge as a scaffold for tissue engineering was investigated using a Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO-K1) line.

생체내 심근허혈-재관류 모델에서 멜라토닌의 재관류 부정맥에 대한 심근보호작용에 관한 연구

조규종,김원,홍정석,이미우,장성은,오세현,임경수 대한응급의학회 2001 대한응급의학회지 Vol.12 No.4

Background: Recently, a few studies demonstrated that melatonin reduced the severity of myocardial reperfusion injuries, such as reperfusion arrhythmias. However, it is uncertain whether the melatonin reduces reperfusion arrhythmias in thus anesthetized animals because results were obtained using isolated hearts. Thus, to see whether melatonin reduces reperfusion arrhythmias in anesthetized animals, we examined the effect of melatonin on the incidence of reperfusion arrhythmias in an anesthetized-cat model of regional ischemia. Method: Adult mongrel male cats(n=30, 2.9∼4.2 kg) were anesthetized under positive-pressure artificial ventilation with room air. The animals of the control group(n=15) were subjected to 20-minute left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD) occlusion followed by abrupt reperfusion. The animals in experimental group(n=15) were divided into two. Group I(n=6) was pretreated with melatonin, 1 mg/kg, before occluding the LAD. Group II(n=9) was pretreated with melatonin, 10 mg/kg. The animals in experimental group were subjected to ischemia/reperfusion insult following drug treatment: melatonin was applied intra-peritoneally for 3 minutes just before LAD coronary artery ligation. The Fisher's exact test was used to compare the data from different animal groups. p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: The incidence of ventricular fibrillation(VF) during the reperfusion phase in group II(pretreated with melatonin, 10 mg) was significantly smaller than that in the control group(p-value = 0.0029). However, no statistically significant difference of VF incidence was found between group I(pretreated with melatonin, 1 mg) and the control group. Conclusion: Employing an anesthetized-cat model of regional cardiac ischemia, we investigated the dose-dependant effects of melatonin on reperfusion-induced arrhythmia. The cats pretreated with 10 mg/kg of melatonin before ischemia had a significantly reduced incidence of lethal reperfusion-induced arrhythmia, but there was no difference between the cats pretreated with 1 mg/kg of melatonin before ischemia and the control group.

As a part of a plan to improve the multifunctional hospital information system, Asan Medical Center has invented the COES (Clinician's Order Entry System) for the physicians which involves computerized TPN prescription. As an initial step, an outline of the system has been formulated after collection relevant materials from various sources including foreign materials. This project simplifies and standardizes COES between physicians and pharmacists. By introducing this system, we could minimize the possible errors during inputing the inscription and converting the requirements to the volumes to prepare the required medicine. Units of prescribed volume were automatically changed through the computerization of TPN order. This procedure can save time and man-power for preparing the medicine by using Automatic TPN Prescripter. All of these has encouraged us to seek more active TPN consultation for the systemical examination and monitor TPN inscription, and to provide patients with TPN of a good quality.

Sea Hwan Sohn,Eun Jung Cho,In Surk Jang 한국동물생명공학회(구 한국동물번식학회) 2006 Reproductive & developmental biology Vol.30 No.4

The Chinese Hamster Ovarian cells CHOK1 are one of the most extensively used cells for the evaluation of gene expression and toxicology. However, these cells are frequently used for biomedical research without consideration of their cytogenetic characteristics. Therefore, we carried out to investigate the karyologic profiles, the frequency and type of chromosome aberration, and the distribution of telomeric DNA on chromosomes of the CHOK1 cells. The GTGbanding and fluorescence in situ hybridization on CHOK1 cells were performed to characterize the karyotype and the distribution of telomeric DNA. The present study revealed that the chromosome modal number of CHOK1 cells was 2n=20; eight chromosomes appeared to be identical with those of the normal Chinese hamster, whereas the remaining 12 chromosomes were shown to be translocated, deleted, inversed, or rearranged from Chinese hamster chromosomes. The telomeric DNA on CHOK1 chromosomes was intensively distributed at the centromeres rather than the ends of chromosomes. In addition, three chromosomes had interstitial telomeres and one marker chromosome entirely consisted of telomeric DNAs. The frequency and type of chromosome aberrations in CHOK1 cells were examined. Of the 822 metaphase spreads, 68 (8.3%) cells resulted in chromosome aberrations of which the chromosome breakage was the most frequently occurred.

Pd(Ⅱ)이온과 Linear Poly(ethyleneimine)간에 생성되는 고분자-금속 착물의 구조와 성질에 관한 연구

Pd(II) metal ion has attracted interest of many researchers because of its potential applications and of its similarity and difference in chemical properties. In this study, complex formation of Pd(II) metal ion with polymeric amine ligand namely, linear poly(ethyleneimine)(LPEI), was investigated utilizing spectroscopic and potentiometric methods as well as elementary analysis. From UV/VIS spectroscopic study, complexation of LEPI to Pd(II) ion exhibit an absorption band at 347nm at the low mole ratio (below 2.0). This species can be understood either as the binuclear complex bridged by chloride ions or a complex of Pd(II) ion with three chloride ions and an amine group. At the high mixing ratio, absorption spectrum centered at 300nm was apparent, which is due to the complexation of LPEI to the Pd(II) ion. Mole ratio analysis for the LPEI-Pd(II) system revealed that complex formation was most stable at the LPEI ratio of 4.0 relative to metal ion. This result was confirmed by elementary analysis. From the potentiometric titration, successive and overall stability constants were measured and the results were analyzed by a modified Bjerrum method.

Owing to frequent heavy rain due to abnormal weather, the occurrence of pepper anthracnose has recently increased, which affects the supply and demand of pepper. As a result, the price of red pepper powder in 2011, for example, increased three times compared to the average year. Although anthracnose of pepper plants has been controlled by fungicides until now, it is important to develop new resistant cultivars because of the reduction of the labor force in rural area and occurrence of new anthracnose strains resistant to fungicides. National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science developed two pepper lines, ‘Wonye 100005’ and ‘Wonye 100006’ that are resistant to pepper anthracnose. These lines were developed by continuous selection of progenies from a cross between ‘Wonye AR1’, which were developed from interspecific hybridization and ‘TF68’. The anthracnose resistance level of the two lines was higher than that of commercial cultivars and similar to check varieties showing highest level of anthracnose resistance.
