이제호,구본경,이종갑 大韓小兒齒科學會 2000 大韓小兒齒科學會誌 Vol.27 No.1

치수 생활력 검사시 전통적인 방법으로 전기치수검사나 온도변화검사 등이 있다. EPT와 ice test 즉, 전기치수검사와 온도변화검사는 치아의 신경학적 반응에 의해 치아의 실활여부를 판단하는 방법으로 환자가 아동일 때는 정확한 반응을 얻기가 어렵고, 환자의 주관적 반응을 판단해야 하므로 객관적이지 못하고, 소아환자에게 좋지 못한 자극을 주어 행동 조절의 문제를 일으키며, 거짓 양성반응과 거짓 음성반응이 나올 수 있다는 등의 한계가 있다. 최근에는 전통적인 방법의 한계를 극복하려는 시도에서 혈관의 보전성을 평가하는 방법인 laser doppler flowmetry와 pulse oximeter를 이용하는 방법이 소개되고 있다. Pulse oximeter의 원리는 두 가지 종류의 파장의 빛을 귀, 손가락 등 생체의 말단에 투과시켜 발산된 빛과 감지된 빛간의 두 파장의 흡수비로 산소포화 정도를 알아내는 것으로서 이에 착안하여 또 하나의 생체 말단인 치아에 이를 적용하여 치아의 실활 여부를 판단하는 것이다. 이 보고에서는 치수 생활력 검사시 pulse oximeter의 사용 가능성에 대해 검증하고 이의 임상적용에 대해 기초적 자료를 제공하고자 함을 목적으로 했는데 생활치에서는 평균 96.3%의 산소 포화도를 실활치에서는 평균 0.0%의 산소 포화도를 얻어냄으로서 pulse oximeter가 치아의 실활여부 판단에 있어 유용한 진단도구로서의 가치가 있다는 것이 밝혀졌다. Traditionally, EPT and thermal tests were used as diagnostic methods for pulp vitality test. The thermal and electrical stimulation tests are the methods to determine the vitality of a tooth based on its neuronal response. These have certain limitations, one of them is the difficulty of approaching the correct result in case of treatment of children. The reason is management problem caused by the unpleasant stimulation. Also, the response from patients are not objective, and false positive or false negative could be happened. Recently, laser doppler flowmetry and pulse oximeter which evaluate vascular integrity are introduced-in an effort of overcoming to limitation of traditional methods. The principle of pulse oximeter is to find out level of oxygen saturation by ratio of the two pulses between emitted light and detected light penetrating them to the termination of body, such as ears or fingers. From this point of view, it can be applied to a tooth to determine its vitality. The objective of this study lies mainly on varifying pulse oximeter as a method of determining tooth vitality and providing basic data of its clinical implementation. The result of the research showed that level of oxygen saturation in vital teeth was average of 96.3% and 0.0% in pulpless teeth. As a comprehensive result, pulse oximeter could be an useful diagnostic equipment in determining of tooth vitality.

쥐의 망막 미세구조에 미치는 급성 메탄올 중독에 대한 에탄올의 효과 관찰

이호경,유진형,구본술 인제대학교 1983 仁濟醫學 Vol.4 No.3

복강내 메탄올 주입으로 급성 메탄올 중독을 일으킨 쥐와 메탄올 주입 직후, 8시간 후 및 24시간 후에 에탄올을 투여한 쥐의 망막 미세구조를 관찰하여, 메탄올 주입 직후와 8시간 후에 에탄올을 투여한 쥐에서 메탄올에 의한 망막 조직 파괴가 경감되었음을 관찰하였다. Methanol is a widely-used chemical which can cause serious visual loss by accidental ingestion, and ethanol therapy has been considered effective in maintaining life as well as preserving vision, if performed appropriately. To provide histopathologic basis of ethanol therapy in acute methanol poisoning, which is still obscure, methanol was injected intraperitoneally to the rat and ethanol therapy was carried out immediately after, 8 hours after, and 24 hours after methanol injection. One month later, specimens of retina were obtained and examined using electron microscope, comparing with only methanol-injected case. The results were as follows. 1.Ultrastructural examination of retina of the only methanol·injected rat revealed such histologic changes as retinal ganglion cell degeneration, vacuole formation in nerve fiber layer, photoreceptor outer segment destruction, and separation of inter-pigment epithelial junction, which are compatible with clinically observed visual deterioration. 2.Retinal changes were much reduced in the rat which had received ethanol therapy immediately after methanol injection, but the reduction was not conspicuous in the 8 hour-interval ethanol treated rat. No differences were found between only methanol-injected rat and 24 hour-interval ethanol-treated case.

연구목적 : 알코올 의존 환자에서 세로토닌 합성 조절 효소인 tryptophan hydroxylase(TPH) 유전자 다형성 빈도를 정상 대조군과 비교함으로써 알코올 의존의 유전적 요인을 추적하고, 임상변인과 이 유전자 다형성과의 관련성을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : DSM-IV진단기준에 부합되는 알코올 의존 환자 100명과 정상 대조군 100명을 대상으로 TPH유전자 다형성을 증합효소 연쇄반응과 제한효소 처리법을 이용하여 동정하였다. 여기서 분리된 대립 유전자와 유전자형에 따른 빈도의 차이를 서로 비교하였으며, 알코올 의존 환자군의 여러 임상 변인에 따른 차이를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 알코올 의존 환자군과 대조군 간에 TPH의 A216C 유전자형 및 대립유전자 빈도에서의 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않았으나, 조기 발병한 환자의 경우는 유전자형의 빈도가 AA,AC,CC형이 0.57, 0.39, 0.04, 후기 발병한 환자의 경우 0.34, 0.45, -.21로, 조기 발병한 환자군에서 대조군과 비교하여 통계적으로 유의하게 A 대립 유전자의 빈도가 높은 것이 관찰되었다.(by chi-square test, p<0.05). 결 론 : 이는 조기 발병형 알코올 의존의 경우 TPH유전자 다형성과 관련이 있으며, 일부 알코올 의존 환자에서 유전적으로 세로토닌계의 이상이 있다는 사실을 시사한다. Objectives : This study was performed to explore the association of tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) gene with diagnosis of alcohol dependence and/or clinical characteristics such as age of onset, family history, and severity of symptoms in Korean alcoholics. Methods : The genotype and allele frequencies of TPH in 100 male hospitalized patients who met DSM-IV criteria for alcohol dependence were investigated using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length plymorphism and were compared with 100 age-matched healthy male control subjects. And the associations between gene polymorphisms and clinical characteristics in alcoholic patients were explored. Results : The distributions of TPH genotype and allele in alcohol dependent patients were not different from control subjects. However, the frequencies of TPH genotype in early-onset alcoholic patients, which were 0.57, 0.39, and 0.04(AA, AC and CC, respectively), were significantly different from those of late-onset alcoholics(0.34, 0.45, and 0.21, respectively). "A" allele was found more frequent in early-onset alcoholics. Conclusion : The result suggests that TPH gene polymorphism is associated with early-onset alcioholic patients possibly related with inherited abnormalities of serotonin system.

The true heartache is a condition of severe heartache corresponding to angina pectoris, as recorded from Hwang Jae Nai Kyung. According to the literatural study of true heartache, some results can be acquired, such as follows. 1. The site of the true Heartache, can be divided into two categories, first, its superficial and conscious area is the chest as same as the other heartache. But its inner lesion is the Heart-Meridian as others occupied at the Pericardium-Meridian in stead of the Heart-Meridian. 2. The etiological classification of true heartache, are Cold-evil, Heat-evil, Wind-evil, Blood stasis etc. But its major factor is Cold-evil, more than anything else. 3. The symptomatic signs of true heartache, consist of cyanotic change from hands and feet to phalanges; severe heartache pale complexion with cold breathing and its extreme state can manifestate unceased sweating called as Yang exhaustion.

The cells are concentrated approximately 20-fold by cytocentrifugation. This study evaluated the nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide by using Cytospin-3 (Thermo Shandon Ltd. UK) and Cytopro-7620 (Wescor Inc., USA) cytocentrifuges to hematocytometer cell count of 0∼5 WBCs/μL of hematocytometer in the cerebrospinal fluid cell count. One hundred forty eight samples of 0∼5 WBCs/μL on hematocytometer, were cytocentrifuged by Cytospin-3 and Cytopro-7620 instruments. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was counted after Wright stain. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 0∼40 cells in the 44 samples of 0 WBC/μL, and 3∼95 cells in the 31 samples of 1 WBC/μL. It was observed that the nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 13∼100 cells in the 44 samples of 2 WBCs/μL, and more than 100 cells in the 29 samples of 3∼5 WBCs/μL, respectively. In addition, extremely normal lymphocyte, monocyte and polymorphonuclear neutrophil were observed in the 143 samples of 0∼5 WBCs/μL. Macrophage and eosinophil were also rarely observed. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 20 cells, which were regarded as 1 WBC/μL in body fluid cell count. However, in this study, we made alterations to report nucleated cell percentage as 0% without preparing the cytocentrifuged slide at 0 WBC/μL by using the cell yield in a comparison between the value of 0∼5 WBCs/μL and nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide.

Purification and Spectroscopic Characterization of the Human Protein Tyrosine Kinase-6 SH3 Domain

(Bon Kyung Koo),(Min Hyung Kim),(Seung Taek Lee),(Weon Tae Lee) 생화학분자생물학회 2002 BMB Reports Vol.35 No.3

The human protein tyrosine kinase-6 (PTK6) polypeptide that is deduced from the cDNA sequence contains a Srchomology (SH) 3 domain, SH2 domain, and catalytic domain of tyrosine kinase. We initiated biochemical and NMR characterization of PTK6 SH3 domain in order to correlate the structural role of the PTK6 using circular dichroism and heteronuclear NMR techniques. The circular dichroism data suggested that the secondary structural elements of the SH3 domain are mainly composed of β-sheet conformations. It is most stable when the pH is neutral based on the pH titration data. In addition, a number of cross peaks at the low-field area of the proton chemical shift of the NMR spectra indicated that the PTK6 SH3 domain retains a unique and folded conformation at the neutral pH condition. For other pH conditions, the SH3 domain became unstable and aggregated during NMR measurements, indicating that the structural stability is very sensitive to pH environments. Both the NMR and circular dichroism data indicate that the PTK6 SH3 domain experiences a conformational instability, even in an aqueous solution.

Lee, Kyung-Bon,Kim, Min-Kyu,Park, Byung-Kwon The Korean Society of Embryo Transfer 2013 한국동물생명공학회지 Vol.28 No.2

This study was carried out to investigate the general characteristics of semen such as semen volume, pH, sperm motility and sperm concentration of the semen collected from Shih Tzu dogs (age of 24 to 48 months, weight of 4 to 8 kg) by using the method of digital manipulation of the penis. The effect of preservation temperature and time on motility of fresh semen was also investigated in the present study. Semen was collected for 16 times from 4 male Shih Tzu dogs by multiple ejaculations (four times ejaculation per dog). The average of semen volume, semen pH, sperm motility and sperm concentration of the second fraction containing small volume of the initial third fraction per ejaculation were $2.11{\pm}0.31$ ml, $6.25{\pm}0.07$, $97.59{\pm}1.03%$ and $2.05{\pm}0.14{\times}10^8$ cells/ml, respectively. Average semen volume per ejaculate, semen pH, sperm motility and sperm concentration of the first fraction from the ejaculation were $1.12{\pm}0.15$ ml, $5.99{\pm}0.14$, $16.09{\pm}6.18%$ and $5.16{\pm}2.03{\times}10^5$ cells/ml, respectively. Those of second fraction were $2.07{\pm}0.29$ ml, $6.36{\pm}0.13$, $97.31{\pm}1.36%$ and $2.15{\pm}0.30{\times}10^8$ cells/ml, respectively. Those of third fraction were $2.60{\pm}0.29$ ml, $6.63{\pm}0.08$, $95.72{\pm}1.61%$ and $6.03{\pm}1.83{\times}10^7$ cells/ml, respectively. Sperm motility was significantly higher at $17^{\circ}C$ preservation temperature than at $5^{\circ}C$ or $36^{\circ}C$ during preservation period except 1 h preservation (P<0.05). When preservation temperature was $17^{\circ}C$, sperm motility was $96.69{\pm}1.49%$ at 1 h, $91.38{\pm}1.90%$ at 6 h, $88.38{\pm}2.34%$ at 12 h, $78.13{\pm}4.58%$ at 18 h, $58.44{\pm}8.57%$ at 24 h and $29.56{\pm}5.06%$ at 30 h, respectively.

DNA Replication Licensing and Paternal DNA Degradation in Mammalian Embryo

Kyung-Bon Lee 한국동물생명공학회(구 한국동물번식학회) 2017 발생공학 국제심포지엄 및 학술대회 Vol.2017 No.10

Mammalian DNA replication occurs only at the fixed place, termed the origin of replication, origin of replication is not recognized by the DNA sequence. It is recognized by the DNA licensing, which indicate that DNA replication is prepared. Furthermore, in the case of mammalian one-cell embryo is separated into paternal and maternal pronuclei, and DNA licensing and DNA replication takes place each in a separate pronuclei. Based on the characteristics of these mammalian one-cell embryo, we tested whether paternal DNA that was destined for degradation was properly licensed, by testing for the presence of MCM7 and ORC2, two licensing proteins, in the paternal pronuclei. We also tested whether the zygote recognized the TOP2B mediated DNA fragmentation in epididymal spermatozoa or the nuclease degradation in vas deferens spermatozoa, by testing for the presence of gamma-H2AX. Sperm DNA fragmentation does not prevent licensing of DNA replication origins. The embryo recognizes DNA that is damaged by nucleases, but not by TOP2B because H2AX is phosphorylated in paternal pronuclei resulting from spermatozoa with fragmented DNA from vas deferens spermatozoa treated with divalent cations, but not from epididymal spermatozoa treated the same way. Our data indicate that the one-cell embryo does harbor a mechanism to prevent the replication of severely damaged DNA from spermatozoa, even though the embryos do not undergo classical apoptosis.
