Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an anti-oxidant enzyme normally upregulated in response to oxidant injury. Here we determined the role of HO-1 in podocyte apoptosis in glomeruli of streptozotocin-treated rats and in immortalized mouse podocytes cultured in media containing normal or high glucose. HO-1 expression, its activity, the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 protein, and active caspase-3 fragments were all significantly higher in isolated glomeruli of diabetic rats and in high glucose–treated podocytes. These increases were inhibited by zinc protoporphyrin treatment of the rats or by HO-1 siRNA treatment of the podocytes in culture. The number of apoptotic cells was also significantly increased in the glomeruli of diabetic rats and in high glucose–treated podocytes. Inhibition of HO-1 accentuated the increase in apoptotic cells both in vivo and in vitro. Our findings suggest that HO-1 expression protects against podocyte apoptosis under diabetic conditions.

일상생활에서 모발염색은 흔히 접할 수 있는 미용의 한 종류로 특히 젊은층을 중심으로 폭발적으로 유행하고 있다. 염색을 위항 사용하는 약제는 표백제와 발색제 등 각종 화학약품이 사용되고 있으나 이로 인한 건강장해에 대한 연구는 그리 많지 않다. 저자들은 염색이 인체의 모발건강에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 염색과 관련된 주관적 증상과 모발의 변화에 대한 실험적 연구를 시행하였다. 동국대학교 경주 캠퍼스 재학생 80명을 대상으로 설문조사를 시행하여 염색 유 ·무 및 염색 후에 경험한 증상에 대해 설문 조사하였고, 의과대학 재학생 46명을 대상으로 피부 반응 테스트를 실시하였다. 또한 염색 전후의 모발 탄성도를 측정하였고 모발의 상태를 파악하기 위해 전자 현미경검사를 실시하였다. 설문조사 결과 염색 전에 비하여 염색 후 안구혼탁, 안구건조, 시력저하, 발진 및 접촉성 피부염, 모발손상, 모근손상 등의 증상을 더 많이 경험한다고 호소하였다(p<0.05). 모발손상과 모근손상은 헤어드라이어 사용 빈도에 따라 증가하는 것으로 조사되었다(p<0.05). 피부반응검사에서 가려움증이 가장 많은 증상이었으며 이는 여성보다는 남성에서 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 염색 전후의 모발장력은 염색 전 134.5±10.37g, 염색 128.0±30.69g, 염색 이틀 후 112.5±19.69g으로 나타났다. 염색 전후의 모발의 전자현미경 케라틴 층이 현저히 감소하고 모발이 가늘어지는 차이를 보였다. 염색은 모발손상, 모발 케라틴 손상 및 모근 손상, 발진 및 접촉성 피부반응, 안구혼탁, 안구건조, 시력 저하를 유발한다. 따라서 염색약으로 인한 손상에 대한 주의와 예방이 필요하다고 생각한다. 예방대책으로 염색 전 피부테스트를 통한 적합성 여부를 판단하는 것이 필요하며 가급적 염색을 피하는 것이 좋을 것이다. 염색약에 발암물질이 포함되어있다는 보고도 있어 염색 제조사의 철저한 실험과 염색 물질의 선별이 염색으로 인한 부작용을 최소화하는데 중요한 역할을 할 것이다. Hair coloring has became one of the most popular cosmetic activities to younger generations during last decade. However, there are few studies on the health effect of widespread use of chemical dyes. This study was conducted to study the effects of hair coloring dye on hair and other systems. We conducted a questionnaire survey of 80 persons in Kyongju campus, Dongguk University. We have done open patch skin test on 46 medical students. We also conducted scanning electron microscopy to examine the hair strength and structure before and after hair coloring process. Injury of hair and hair bulb, contact dermatitis, turbid eyes, xerophthalmia, and poor visual acuity were the main symptoms complained after hair coloring (p<0.05). Injury of hair and hair bulb were increased by frequency of hair-dryer use(p<0.05). In open patch test, pruritus was complanined by more than half of the subjects. Mean strength of hairs before and after hair coloring was as follows; 134.5 (SD 10.37)g before hair coloring, 128.0 (SD 30.69)g immediately after hair coloring, and 112.5 (SD 19.69)g after two days. The scanning electron microscopic findings of hair surface before and after hair coloring showed decreased keratin layer and thinning of the hair. Hair coloring induces injury to hair, its keratin layer, and hair bulb as well as contact dermatitis, turbid eyes, xerophthalmia, and poor visual acuity. Therefore, we think that precaution is needed in use of hair coloring dye. To prevent complications induced by hair coloring dye, it is necessary, especially to those with allergy or skin disorders, to perform skin test before action and avoid hair coloring whenever possible. Longterm health effects of hairdye should be studied and manufacturing companies should try to minimize complications induced by hair coloring dye.

Deep skin and soft tissue defects with exposed bone and tendon is difficult to treat, because skin graft rarely survives and flap surgery is sacrifice of donor site. Since "Stage I" membrane was developed by Yannas and Bruke in 1980, numerous kinds of artificial skin have been developed. The adaptability of "Terudermis", developed by the Terumo Co., as an artificial skin composed of sponge made of a fibrillar atelocollagen and a heat-denatured atelocollagen, was clinically evaluated on application to 13 cases presenting deep skin and soft tissue defect with exposed bones and tendons from October 1997 to march 1998. Terudermis has the advantage of allowing early incorporation of fibroblasts and capillaries into its collagen sponge due to very weak dehydrothermal cross-linking. Before Terudermis graft, several days of wet dressing and debridement were required to prepare healthy well- vascularized bed because Terudermis was weak on unsanitary wounds. After bed preparation, Terudermis was grafted like usual skin graft. Tie-over bolster dressing or compressive dressing was used case by case. The dressing was opened 2~3 days after Terudermis grafting. Wet dressing was done daily until the skin graft was done. Autologous skin graft was done 2∼3 weeks after Terudermis graft. Our clinical results indicated that Terudermis was beneficial in treating 77% of our patients. Through the use of this new method, treatment of severe skin and soft tissue defects that are usually treated by musculocutaneous or other conventional skin flaps can be replaced by Terudermis as an new artificial dermis.

CuInSe₂ thin films were prepared on Si(100) wafer by RF magnetron sputtering from powder target which was prepared by reacting high purity Cu₂Se and In₂Se₃(99.999%, Cu₂Se: In₂Se₃=1:1 mole ratio), in argon gas The XRD results suggest that deposited thin films were mainly composed of crystalline CuInSe₂ with the typical chalcopyrite structure, whereas film deposited showed the mixed phase of Cu₂Se+CuInSe₂at 50W. Deposited film showed (204), (220) preferred orientation at 50W and deposited films from 75W were strongly oriented along th e(112) plane. In the EDS analysis, Cu/In mole ratio of the thin films was decreased and Se/(Cu+In) mole ratio was increased with increasing RF power. The lattice parameters of a, c axis and c/a ratio of deposited films were decreased with increasing RF power. The grain size of the thin films measured by SEM became coarse with the increase of RF power.

The interaction between Streptococcus and Lactococcus lactis 1370 on the formation of glucan was studied. 1. When the culture supernatant of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain in M17 broth containing 0.5% yeast extract and 5% sucrose (M17YS broth) was added in the media of beaker, Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain and Streptococcus sobrinus B13 produced more artificial plaque compared with culturing in the media added with the culture supernatant of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain in M17 broth containing 0.5% yeast extract (M17Y broth) (p<0.05), and were replicated more. 2. When the culture supernatant of Streptococcus sobrinus B13 in M17YS broth was added in the media of beaker, Streptococcus sobrinus B13 produced less artifical plaque compared with culturing in the media added with the culture supernatant of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain in M17Y broth (p<0.05). 3. The weight of artificial plaque prodeced by Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain was significantly reduced to 8.0mg in the media added with the culture supernatant of Lactococcus lactis 1370 in M17YS broth compared with 101.6mg in the media only (p<0.05), and that produced by Streptococcus sobrinus B13 was reduced in the media added with the culture supernatant of Lactococcus lactis 1370 in M17YS broth (p<0.05). 4. The weight of soluble glucan in 40ml culture supernatant of Strptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain was 0.002g, and that in 10ml culture supernatant of Lactococcus lactis 1370 was 0.076g, while that in the culture supernatant of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain being 0.110g in 30 ml M17YS broth added with 10 ml culture supernatant of Lactococcus lactis 1370. 5. The optical density of absorbance at 550 nm was 0.379 and 0.209 in the culture of Lactococcus lactis 1370 added with the culture supernatant of Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain and Lactococcus lactis 1370 in M17YS broth, whereas being 0.501 in the culture of Lactococcus lactis 1370 in M17YS broth only. 6. The polymer produced by Lactococcus lactis 1370 was glucan on the thin layer chromatography. 7. The glucan produced by Lactococcus lactis 1370 was water-soluble glucan containing α1→6 linkages as the main linkage on the thin layer chromatography. These results indicate that the production of water-insoluble glucan by Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt strain was increased by water-insoluble glucan, but decreased by water-soluble glucan.
