Background and Purposes: Over the past three decades, numerous studies performed in Korea have reported that job stress is a determinant risk factor for chronic diseases and work disability. Every society has its own culture and occupational climate particular to their organizations, and hence experiences different occupational stress. An occupational stress measurement tool therefore needs to be developed to estimate it objectively. The purpose of this study is to develop and standardize the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) which is considered to be unique and specific occupational stressors in Korean employees. Subjects and Methods: Data were obtained from the National Study for Development and Standardization of Occupational Stress (NSDSOS Project: 2002-2004). A total of 12,631 employees from a nationwide sample proportional to the Korean Standard Industrial Classification and the Korean Standard Occupational Classification were administered. The KOSS was developed for 2 years (2002-2004). In the first year, we collected 255 items from the most popular job stress measurement tools such as JCQ, ERI, NIOSH and OSI, and 44 items derived from the a qualitative study (depth interview). Forty-three items of KOSS, in the second year, were retained for use in the final version of the KOSS by using Delphi and factor analysis. Items were scored using conventional 1-2-3-4 Likert scores for the response categories. Results: We developed eight subscales by using factor analysis and validation process: physical environment (3 items), job demand (8 items), insufficient job control (5 items), interpersonal conflict (4 items), job insecurity (6 items), organizational system (7 items), lack of reward (6 items), and occupational climate (4 items). Together they explained 50.0% of total variance. Internal consistency alpha scores were ranged from 0.51 to 0.82. Twenty-four items of the short form of the KOSS (KOSS-SF) were also developed to estimate job stress in the work setting. Because the levels of the subscales of occupational stress were gender dependent, gender-specific standard norms for both the 43-item full version and the 24-item short form using a quartile for the subscales of KOSS were presented. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that KOSS might be an appropriate measurement scale to estimate occupational stress of Korean employees. Further and more detailed study needs to be conducted to improve the validity of this scale.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between their problem behavioral pattern and anxious trends among Korean student adolescent. Zung's measurement of anxiety level undergone through used of the self-rating anxiety scale. the data were collected through the questionaire survey which was conducted on Dec.1, 1983. Subjects served for this atudy consisted of 1,404 syudents in Korea, randomly sampled from Korean student population by means of census method. The data were analysed by CDC-174 computer of KAIST, using SPSS pogram. Statistical methods empoyed were χ^2 test and Eta measures. the results of this study were as follows. 1. It showed that students psychological anxious trends had greatest significant correlation with adolescent student's problem brhavioral pattern, but the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestional and genitourinary anxious trends has not significantly related with student's problem behavioral pattern. 2. Students group with undersocialized aggressive, undersocialized nonaggressive,undersocialized school-norm avoidant, or socialized nonaggressive behavioral patterns were less anxious, whereas those with socialized latent aggressive, socialized sexual, or socialized modellong behavioral patterns were higher anxious.

3,4,5-Trihydroxycinnamic acid (THC) is a derivative of hydroxycinnamic acids, which have been reported to possess a variety of biological properties such as anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and neuroprotective activities. However, biological activity of THC has not been extensively examined. Recently, we reported that THC possesses anti-inflammatory activity in LPS-stimulated BV2 microglial cells. However, its precise mechanism by which THC exerts anti-inflammatory action has not been clearly identified. Therefore, the present study was carried out to understand the anti-inflammatory mechanism of THC in BV2 microglial cells. THC effectively suppressed the LPS-induced induction of pro-inflammatory mediators such as NO, TNF-a, and IL-1b. THC also suppressed expression of MCP-1, which plays a key role in the migration of activated microglia. To understand the underlying mechanism by which THC exerts these anti-inflammatory properties, involvement of Nrf2, which is a cytoprotective transcription factor, was examined. THC resulted in increased phosphorylation of Nrf2 with consequent expression of HO-1 in a concentration-dependent manner. THC-induced phosphorylation of Nrf2 was blocked with SB203580, a p38 MAPK inhibitor, indicating that p38 MAPK is the responsible kinase for the phosphorylation of Nrf2. Taken together, the present study for the first time demonstrates that THC exerts anti-inflammatory properties through the activation of Nrf2 in BV2 microglial cells, suggesting that THC might be a valuable therapeutic adjuvant for the treatment of inflammation-related disorders in the CNS.

Ventricular septal defect remains an infrequent but devastating complication of acute MI. Approximately 1∼3% of cases of acute myocardial infarction are complicated by ventricular septal rupture in the prethrombolytic era and the incidence has decreased to 0.2% with reperfusion therapy. This mechanical complication usually occurs within the first 10 to 14 days when necrotic tissue is most abundant and the collateral coronary circulation is not well developed. This lesion is generally associated with complete coronary obstruction rather than severe stenosis. Rupture of the ventricular septum is a severe mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction, usually resulting in death unless surgical repair is performed. The bad prognosis of this event within the first 2 weeks indicates the need for early surgical rapair. This complication is more frequent after the first acute myocardial infarction in the elderly and secondary to a transmural myocardial infarction. We report two cases of ventricular septal rupture after acute myocardial infarction.

안지오텐신(ACE) 저해제는 항고혈 효과를 갖고 있으므로 오랫동안 고혈압의 예방이나 치료에 이용되어 왔다. 본 연구는 재조합 대장균으로부터 새로운 ACE 저해제를 생산하고 정제하며 나아가 이들이 구조-기능 관P를 규명하기 위해 수행되었다. Saccharomyces cerevisiase의 ACE 저해 펩타이드 유전자를 함유하고 있는 재조합 pGEX-4T-3을 대장균 BL21(DE3)로 형질전환 시켰다. 재조합 pGEX-4T-3을 갖고 있는 대장균 BL21(DE3)로부터 생산된 Glutathione-s 전이효소 (GST) 융합 단백질을 얻어서 그중 ACE저해 펩타이드를 Sephadex G-25 컬럼 크로마토그래피로 정제하였다. 정제된 ACE 저해 펩타이드는 타이로신-아스파틱엑시드-그리신-글리신-발린-패닐알라린-아르기닌-발린-타이로신-트레오닌의 서열을 가진 새로운 decapeptide이었고 ACE에 대하여 경쟁적으로 저해하였다. The angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor has anti-hypertensive effects and has long been used as prevention or remedy of hypertension. This study were carried out to produce and purify a new ACE inhibitor from recombinant E. coli and further elucidate its structure-function relationship. Recombinant pGEX-4T-3 containing ACE inhibitory peptide gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). Glutathione-S transferase (GST) fusion protein from E. coli BL21(DE3) harboring the recombinant pGEX-4T-3 was obtained and the ACE inhibitory peptide was purified with Sephadex G-25 column chromatography. The purified ACE inhibitory peptide was a novel decapeptide with sequence Tyr-Asp-Gly-Gly-Val-Phe -Arg-Val-Tyr-Thr which shows very low similarity to the other ACE inhibitory peptide sequence. The purified ACE inhibitor competitively inhibited ACE.

Chloride ions are considered to be the major cause of steel corrosion in concrete structures exposed to seashore environments and also permeation of chloride is controlled by chloride diffusion. Therefore, the study on chloride diffusion of concrete have been done so far by many researchers. In this study, several factors such as capacity of voltage, time of an electric current, concentration of NaCl solution, water-cement ratio, and temperature of the solution were examined to grasp what influence they were on the chloride ion diffusion properties using the Rapid Chloride Penetration Test(RCPT) by electrophoresis. Also standing on the basis of the such result application possibility of Rapid Chloride Penetration Test(RCPT) used in this study will be evaluated and the basic data on the durability design for the chloride attack will be suggested.

Reports : Structure-activity relationships of the intramolecular disulfide bonds in coprisin, a defensin from the dung beetle

( Jae Ho Lee ),( Da Eun Lee ),( Hye Min Choi ),( Ha Hyung Kim3 ),( Ho Kim ),( Jae Sam Hwang ),( Dong Gun Lee ),( Jae Il Kim ) 생화학분자생물학회(구 한국생화학분자생물학회) 2014 BMB Reports Vol.47 No.11

Defensins, which are small cationic molecules produced by organisms as part of their innate immune response, share a common structural scaffold that is stabilized by three disulfide bridges. Coprisin is a 43-amino acid defensin-like peptide from Copris tripartitus. Here, we report the intramolecular disulfide connectivity of cysteine-rich coprisin, and show that it is the same as in other insect defensins. The disulfide bond pairings of coprisin were determined by combining the enzymatic cleavage and mass analysis. We found that the loss of any single disulfide bond in coprisin eliminated all antibacterial, but not antifungal, activity. Circular dichroism (CD) analysis showed that two disulfide bonds, Cys20-Cys39 and Cys24- Cys41, stabilize coprisin’s α-helical region. Moreover, a BLAST search against UniProtKB database revealed that coprisin’s α-helical region is highly homologous to those of other insect defensins. [BMB Reports 2014; 47(11): 625-630]
