To diagnose acute myocardial infarction(MI), many cardiac markers have been used in hematologic and biochemical analysis, and many studies have been published for hema-tologic and biochemical analysis associated with human acute MI. However, after occurrence of acute MI, the serial investigation for values in hematologic and bioche-mical analysis including chronic MI has rarely been performed. To observe the change of the serial values in hematologic and biochemical analysis, we induced artificial MI. The left main descending artery(LMDA) of the left coronary artery was ligated during the progression(day 1, 3, 5, 7, 14 and 30) of MI. Total 66 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the sham group(n=24, thoracotomy without LMDA ligation) and the experimental(MI) group(n=42, with LMDA ligation). And all individual in each group was sacrified at day 1, 3, 5, 7, 14 and 30 for the hematologic and biochemical analysis. In comparison of hematologic analysis between the sham and MI groups, the mean values of red blood cell(RBCs), hemoglobin and hematocrit(HCT) showed a steady increase. In biochemical analysis, the mean values of glucose, choles-terol, total creatine kinase(CK) and isoenzyme MB, and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) were increased in all MI groups compared with the sham groups. The results of this study suggest that early hematologic and biochemical mean values occurred after acute MI are similar to those of human acute MI. In conclusion, we could observe the alterations and serial values in hematologic and biochemical analysis to the extent of chronic status after acute MI.

N/A Background: Magnetocardiogram (MCG), which records the changes of magnetic fields generated by the heart`s electrical activity, theoritically can provide unique data for clinical application. To date, MCG has been investigated only at a single time point after myocardial infarction (MI) with severe left ventricular dysfunction in rats. The purpose of the present study was to investigate sequential changes of MCG after MI and to evaluate effects of infarct size on MCG. Methods: Acute MI were induced by the permanent ligation of left coronary artery in 22 rats. Magnetic fields were recorded just above a rat with Nb Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) gradiometer inside a magnetically shielded room. MCG was measured before and immediately after surgery and it was subsequently recorded at the time points of 1, 4 and 6 hours post operatively. MCG was also measured at 1, 3, 7 and 21 days after surgery. Results: Elevation of ST segment and appearance of pathological Q wave on the MCG were evident immediately after the ligation of coronary artery and persisted to 6 hours after MI. On MCG, ST segment was depressed and T wave was inverted from 1 day after MI. In rats with small-and moderate- sized MI (infarct size〈30%), ST depression returned to near the isoelectric level and Q wave disappeared from 7 days after MI. However, ST depression and Q wave were still present in rats with larger infarct (infarct size≥30%). Conclusion: Evolutional changes of MCG were well-recognized up to 21 days after MI. Furthermore, the infarct size can be expressed by the extent of Q wave and ST segment depression on MCG. Taken together, these data indicate that MCG is a helpful modality for the diagnosis, evaluation of infarct size and follow up after MI.(Korean J Med 62:42-48, 2002)

Effects of sperm insemination on the final meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes arrested at metaphase I after in vitro maturation

Yoon, Jeong,Juhn, Kyoung-Mi,Yoon, San-Hyun,Ko, Yong,Lim, Jin-Ho The Korean Society for Reproductive Medicine 2017 Clinical and Experimental Reproductive Medicine Vol.44 No.1

Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate whether fertilization could induce the resumption of meiosis in mouse oocytes arrested at metaphase I (MI) after in vitro maturation (IVM), and to investigate the effect of $Ca^{2+}$ chelator treatment at the time of fertilization on the transition from MI to metaphase II (MII). Methods: MII-stage and arrested MI-stage mouse oocytes after IVM were fertilized, and then embryonic development was monitored. Blastocysts from each group were transferred into 2.5 days post-coitum pseudo-pregnant ICR mice. MI oocytes after IVM were treated with a $Ca^{2+}$ chelator to investigate the effect of $Ca^{2+}$ oscillations on their maturation. Results: As insemination time increased, the number of oocytes in the MI group that reached the MII stage also increased. The blastocyst rates and total cell numbers in the MII group were significantly higher than in the MI group. No pregnancy occurred in the MI group, but 10 pregnancies were achieved (10 of 12) in the MII group. The proportion of MI oocytes that matured to MII oocytes after fertilization was significantly higher in the non-treated group than in the $Ca^{2+}$ chelator-treated group. Conclusion: The findings that a higher proportion of MI-arrested oocytes progressed to MII after fertilization and that the MI-to-MII transition was blocked by $Ca^{2+}$ chelator treatments before fertilization indicate that the maturation of MI oocytes to MII oocytes is associated with intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ oscillations driven by fertilization.

Transcriptional activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by HDAC4 and HDAC5 involves differential recruitment of p300 and FIH-1

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>The interplay between hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and histone deacetylase (HDACs) have been well studied; however, the mechanism of cross-talk is unclear. Here, we investigated the roles of HDAC4 and HDAC5 in the regulation of HIF-1α function and its associated mechanisms. HDAC4 and HDAC5 enhanced transactivation by HIF-1α without stabilizing HIF-1α. HDAC4 and HDAC5 physically associated with HIF-1α through the inhibitory domain (ID) that is the binding site for factor inhibiting HIF-1 (FIH-1). In the presence of these HDACs, binding of HIF-1α to FIH-1 decreased, whereas binding to p300 increased. These results indicate that HDAC4 and HDAC5 increase the transactivation function of HIF-1α by promoting dissociation of HIF-1α from FIH-1 and association with p300.</P><P><B>Structured summary:</B></P><P>MINT-6802187:</P><P><I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q16665) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>FIH1</I> (uniprotkb:Q9NWT6) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P><P>MINT-6802058:</P><P><I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q16665) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>HDAC4</I> (uniprotkb:P56524) by <I>pull down</I> (MI:0096)</P><P>MINT-6802021:</P><P><I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q61221) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>HDAC4</I> (uniprotkb:P56524) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P><P>MINT-6802036:</P><P><I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q61221) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>HDAC5</I> (uniprotkb:Q9UQL6) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P><P>MINT-6802102:</P><P><I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q16665) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>HDAC5</I> (uniprotkb:Q9UQL6) by <I>pull down</I> (MI:0096)</P><P>MINT-6802121, MINT-6802156:</P><P><I>P300</I> (uniprotkb:Q09472) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0218) with <I>HIF1 alpha</I> (uniprotkb:Q16665) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P>

Histone deacetylase 3 is selectively involved in L3MBTL2-mediated transcriptional repression

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>This is the first report that L(3)mbt-like 2 (L3MBTL2) specifically interacts with the histone deacetylase domain of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) via its MBT domain. Here, we show that L3MBTL2 selectively interacts with HDAC3, but not other class I HDACs. An in vitro peptide-binding assay demonstrated the specific association of HDAC3 with methylated histone-K20 tail and L3MBTL2. Furthermore, depletion of HDAC3 resulted in a decrease of methylated K20-H4, as well as an increase in acetylated histone H3. Consequently, HDAC3 knock-down selectively suppressed L3MBTL2-mediated transcriptional repression. Taken together, our results reveal the concerted action of both HDAC3 and L3MBTL2 in histone deacetylation and methylation-dependent transcriptional repression.</P><P><B>Structured summary</B></P><P>MINT-7719975: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) and <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>colocalize</I> (MI:0403) by <I>fluorescence microscopy</I> (MI:0416)</P><P>MINT-7719941, MINT-7719921: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) <I>binds</I> (MI:0407) to <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) by <I>pull down</I> (MI:0096)</P><P>MINT-7719991: <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P><P>MINT-7719958: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) by <I>anti tag coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0007)</P><P>MINT-7719897: <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) by <I>two hybrid</I> (MI:0018)</P>

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.

이 연구는 농업인을 대상으로 한 교육 프로그램의 내용 및 방법을 살펴봄으로써 향후 농업인 교육을 위한 기초자료를 제공하는 데 목적이 있었다. 농업인 교육프로그램 분석을 위한 개념적 틀은 관련문헌에 대한 고찰과 수집 자료에 대한 귀납적 분석을 통해 개발되었다. 그 결과, 8가지의 기관 유형, 17가지의 프로그램 내용 영역, 5가지의 교육방법, 3가지의 교육인원, 3가지의 교육기간이 도출되었다. 분석대상은 총 173개 기관의 2,483개 프로그램이었다. 이 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라의 농업인 교육은 국가기관 및 기술센터 등의 정부기관 주도로 이루어지고 있었다. 둘째, 재배/사육기술, 생활개선 및 농촌건강관리, 정보획득 등의 내용이 주요 교육내용으로 다루어지고 있었다. 셋째, 각 기관 유형별로 비중 있게 다루는 주요 교육내용에 있어서 다소 차이가 있었다. 넷째, 농업인 교육프로그램에서 활용되는 교육방법은 대체적으로 강의에 편중되어 있었다. 다섯째, 교육인원에 있어 중규모와 대규모 인원의 비중이 상대적으로 높았으며, 1 대 1 개별 교육은 전혀 없는 것으로 나타났다. 여섯째, 1일 혹은 3일 이상 이루어지는 교육의 비중이 상대적으로 높았으며, 2일 동안 이루어지는 교육의 비중은 비교적 낮은 편이었다. The purposes of this study were to analyze the farmer education programs in Korea, and to get implications for further program development. The framework for the analysis was developed through extensive literature review and an inductive method. As a result, eight types of organizations for farmer education, seventeen content domains of programs, five instructional methods, three categories of program participant size, and three categories of program period were derived. The subjects of analysis were 2,483 programs of 173 farmer education organizations. The major findings were as follows: 1) Farmer education programs of Korea were led by government agencies such as national organizations and extension agencies. 2) The content domains of cultivating/raising techniques, improvement of life quality and farmer health care, and information acquisition were relatively highly dealt with. 3) Main contents which were dealt with by each type of farmer education organization were differentiated. 4) In terms of instructional method, a lecture had the highest portion in most contents domains. 5) The portion of the middle size and large size of participants was relatively higher than others. And there are no programs which used one by one teaching method. 6) The portion of programs for 1 day or 3days was relatively higher, and the portion of programs for 2 days was lower.
