Background Development of genetically modified crops has rapidly increased in last few years. The most widely grown GM crops express genes that confer herbicide tolerance and insect resistance. Detection system of GM crops is important for safety evaluation before its consumption. Objective The purpose of this research is to detect GM crops, especially PAT, in food-samples. Results The bar gene (PAT protein, herbicide resistant) was cloned in pGEX-4T-1 and expressed by E. coli. The high-affinity PAT-specific single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamers were obtained from a random DNA library. MOE docking study was performed to identify the potential binding region of the selected aptamers on PAT. Aptamer-linked immobilized sorbent assay (ALISA) method was used to detect PAT. Conclusion We screened aptamer against PAT for developing an efficient detection method. The selected PAT specific aptamers, HRPA-05 and HRPA-07, showed the distinct target binding behaviors, and detected PAT protein by aptamer-linked immobilized sorbent assay method with high efficiency and selectivity.

이 연구는 전남 진도 지역어의 단모음 실현 양상과 특징을 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 20명의 진도 토박이 화자를 대상으로 단모음 음성 자료를 구축하여 성별, 세대에 따른 단모음의 음성적 특징을 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 전남 서남부에 위치한 진도 지역어의 단모음 체계는 /ㅣ, E, ㅡ, ㅓ, ㅏ, ㅜ, ㅗ/의 7모음 체계임을 확인하였다. 전남 방언은 대개 /ㅚ/, /ㅟ/를 단모음으로 보았으나, 진도 지역 장년층은 두 모음을 대부분 이중모음으로 조음하였다. 또한, 청년층은 모두 두 모음을 완벽하게 이중모음으로 실현하였다. 한편, 진도 지역어의 단모음 조음 위치를 분석한 결과 세대간 차이가 관찰되었다. 진도 지역 장년층 화자와 달리 청년층 화자는 /ㅡ/의 전방화, /ㅜ/의 전방화, /ㅗ/의 고모음화, /ㅓ/의 후설 저모음화로 이어지는 후설 고·중모음의 연쇄적인 조음 위치 변화가 나타났다. 청년층의 단모음 음가 변화는 진도 지역은 물론 여타의 방언권에서도 나타나는 표준어 수렴 현상의 하나이다. 이상의 실험 결과를 종합해 보면, 진도 지역 화자는 세대에 따른 단모음 체계에 차이는 없지만 개별 단모음의 음성 실현 양상에는 차이가 있다. 본고는 기존 연구와 달리 음성 자료의 직접적 분석을 바탕으로 진도 지역어의 단모음 체계를 구명한 점과 세대에 따른 조음 위치적 변화를 포착하였다는 데 의의가 있다. The aim of this study was to examine the acoustic characteristics of the monophthongs in the Jeonnam-Jindo dialect. For this purpose, the experiment was conducted and data was gathered from Jindo dialect speakers in their 10s and 5,60s. The data were analyzed on the basis of the subjects’ generation, gender. The result of production experiment was that Jindo dialect speakers have same vowel system between generations: 7 vowel system (/i, E, a, □, i, u, o/). The older generation of Jindo speakers mostly pronounce /ㅚ/ and /ㅟ/ as monophthong irrespective of sex and the young generation of Jindo speakers entirely pronounce /ㅚ/ and /ㅟ/ as monophthong. Also, we found that /Щ/, /u/ moved toward front and /o/ moved toward high in the vowel space from the Jindo speakers in their older to those in their young. And /Λ/ showed a shift in the vowel space from the back to the open vowel. The results revealed a chain-like shift in the high and mid back vowels. It is assumable that the degree of standardization appearing in the place of articulation on vowel is quite high in the Jindo dialect. Previous studies discussed the Jindo vowel system on the basis of the observations made by the researchers. The current study, on the other hand, is significant in that it investigated sound changes in vowel production throughout the vowel system and confirmed the articulation place of vowel using phonetic methods.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to examine the behavioral and emotional problems associated with nocturnal enuresis in Korean children. Methods : Three hundred eighteen children with nocturnal enuresis, together with their parents, completed the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Disruptive Behavior Disorder Scale according to DSM-IV (DBDS), Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAIC), and Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale (PHCSC). Ninety-three normal students were selected as the control group. Results : Compared to the normal control group, the mean scores with regard to the withdrawn, social problems, attention problems, delinquent behavior, aggressive behavior, externalizing problems and total problems profiles were significantly higher in the nocturnal enuresis group according to the CBCL results. The nocturnal enuresis group also scored significantly higher in the ADHD and ODD profiles of the DBDS. The nocturnal enuresis group was more depressed and anxious than the control group according to the results of the CDI and STAI. The mean score of the PHCSC was significantly lower in the nocturnal enuresis group when compared to the normal control group. Conclusion : The results of this study suggest that children with nocturnal enuresis in Korea have clinically relevant behavioral and emotional problems. The findings support the link between nocturnal enuresis and psychopathology in Korean children.

신성현,박제민,정우영,박문일,서유나,김성곤,강철중 大韓神經精神醫學會 2007 신경정신의학 Vol.46 No.5

Objectives : It is widely accepted that gonadal steroids are involved in organization and activation of sexual dimorphism in the brain areas related with spatial leaming. This study aimed to test the following hypothesis : 1) spatial memory is affected by sex, 2) this difference is related with brain differentiation by exposure to testosterone in the neonatal period, and/or 3) the sexual difference of spatial memory is the result of the interaction between organization of sexual dimorphism in the brain and the circulating testosterone after growing up. Methods : Testosterone enanthate 100 ㎍, ('androgenized') orvehicle ('control') was randomly administered to 28 female and 25 male rat pups within 24 hour of birth. The escape latencies (EL) in Morris water maze were measured in 15 and 16 week of age with vehicle ('baseline') and with 10 μmol/kg of testosterone ('with testosterone'), respectively. Each session Consis-ted of 10 trials, and means of the last 5 trials were analyzed. Results : The baseline EL of the males were significantly shorter than females regardless ofneonatal exposure to testosterone. With testosterone, EL of the androgenized females were significantly shorter than control females and comparable to those of males. Conclusion : Neonatal exposure to testosterone in female rats may develop a tesosterone-dependent male-like spatial leaming system.

신성진,윤민호,권순경,최우영 충남대학교 농업과학연구소 1999 농업과학연구 Vol.26 No.1

젖소 유방염 병원균에 대한 느릅나무 뿌리껍질(楡白皮)의 항균활성을 검토하기 위하여 용매분획별로 시험한 결과 일반적으로 chloroform 분획이 가장 효과적이었고 butanol 및 물분획의 활성은 낮았다. 유방염균을 Fleish extract broth에서 액체 배양할 경우에 chloroform 분획을 첨가하면 생육이 억제되었으며 특히 Staphylococcus aureus 및 Streptococcus sp. No. 12는 초기생육이 현저하게 저해되는 경향을 나타내었다. Hoechst 제약의 표준방법에 의한 MIC 시험에서도 유사한 결과를 얻었다. 또한 건조한 느릅나무의 뿌리껍질 100g을 물로 추출하여 겉보기 점도 77.5 cP, 최대흡수 파장 440㎚의 황갈색 수용성 점질물 4.500㎖를 회수할수 있었다. 이를 정제 건조한 무게는 32~35g이었으며, 탄수화물 함량이 61.0±1.0%, 단백질 8.0±0.2%로서 다당이 주성분이었다. 이상의 실험결과를 통해 유백피의 용매 추출분획물은 항균활성을 나타내는 성분으로, 그리고 수용성 점질물은 흡수성과 점성이 높은 다당류로서 염증 부위에 수렴작용을 나타내는 성분으로 결론지을 수 있었다. The methanolic extracts from the elm (Ulmus davidiana var japonica) root barks which have been known as an oriental medicine Eubackpie for the treatment of edema, ulcer and inflammation were examined for their bacteriocidal effects on mastitis pathogens of milk cows. The growth of the pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus sp. No. 12 was markedly inhibited by the chloroform fraction among the extracts, and these antibacterial activities were also supported by MIC test. Water-soluble mucilage was obtained from the root barks with a yield of 36.8∼40.2% bf dry weight basis. This substance appeared to be a kind of polysaccharide with 61.0±1.0% carbohydrate content, and to have hygroscopic and astringent properties due to its high viscosity and water absorption.

타목시펜이 간세포암 세포주의 성장과 Transforming Growth Factor-β 1의 발현에 미치는 영향

신정우,정영화,박무인,김정아,최민희,이윤정,류수형,박능화,이한주,이영상,서동진,유은실 대한간학회 2003 Clinical and Molecular Hepatology(대한간학회지) Vol.9 No.1

목적: 타목시펜을 진행성 간세포암 환자에게 투여한 결과 일부에서 효과가 있었다는 보고가 있으나 타목시펜이 간세포암의 성장을 억제하는 기전은 밝혀져 있지 않다. TGF-β1은 간세포암의 성장과 분화에 관여하는 중요한 성장인자로 알려져 있으며 최근 타목시펜이 TGF-β1의 분비조절에도 관여한다는 보고들이 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 타목시펜이 간세포암의 성장과 TGF-β1의 발현에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 궁극적으로 타목시펜이 간세포암 환자에게 항암제로 사용될 수 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상과 방법: 인간 간세포암 세포주인 Hep 3B세포를 에스트로겐이 없는 RPMI 1640과 dextran coated charcoal로 처리한 5% fetal bovine serum을 혼합한 배지에서 3일 배양 후 2×10^4 세포/well로 분주하여 2일간 배양한 후 0.1 μM, 0.5 μM, 1 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM 농도의 타목시펜으로 처치하고 6일간 배양하였다. 매일 세포를 수집하여 trypan blue로 염색한 후 생존 세포수를 산출하였으며 상층액내 TGF-β1 농도는 ELISA법으로 측정하였다. 결과: 비교적 저 농도인 0.1 μM 타목시펜 처치군은 배양 6일째 생존 세포수가 대조군에 비해 의미 있게 증가하였다(2.59×10^6 vs 1.97×10^6, p<0.05). 생존 세포수는 타목시펜농도가 증가할수록 감소하여 10 μM 처치군은 대조군에 비해 의미있는 감소를 보였다(1.4×10^6 vs 1.97×10^6., p<0.05). 상층액내의 TGF-β1dml 분비량은 타목시펜 처치 농도와 상관없이 전 군에서 대조군에 비해 의미있게 감소하였으며 타목시펜 농도에 따른 각 군간에 차이는 없었다. 결론: 타목시펜은 실험실내에서 처치 농도에 따라 간세포암 세포주의 성장에 미치는 영향이 다양했으나, 처치 농도와 관계없이 일정한 정도로 TGF-β1의 발현을 억제하였다. 타목시펜의 이러한 효과는 생체에서 TGF-β1이 과발현된 간세포암의 성장과 진행을 억제할 것으로 생각된다. 또한 타목시펜은 TGF-β1의 발현을 조절하는 기전 이외의 다른 기전을 통해서는 간세포암의 성장을 억제하는 것으로 사료된다. Background/Aims: Tamoxifen has been tried in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however, its inhibitory mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we evaluated the effects of tamoxifen on HCC cell growth and the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) which had been known as an important cytokine in growth of HCC. Methods: Hep 3B cells were cultivated in estrogen free media with 0.1 μM, 0.5 μM, 1 μM, 5 μM, and 10μM of tamoxifen for 6 days. Viable cells were counted daily and the TGF-β1 concentrations in supernatant were measured by ELISA method. Results: The number of viable HCC cells increased rather significantly after the treatment of tamoxifen of lower concentration (0.1 μM) compared with that of the control (2.57×10^7 us. 1.97×10^7; p<0.05). As the concentration of treated tamoxifen was higher, the number of viable HCC cells became gradually less, resulting in the significant decrease of it at the highest concentration (10 μM) compared with that of the control (1.40×10^7 us. 1.97×10^7; p<0.05). TGF-β1 concentration in supernatant of tamoxifen-treated samples was significantly decreased compared with those of controls, regardless of the amount of treated tamoxifen. Conclusions: These results suggest that tamoxifen may suppress TGF-β1 expression to an extent, although it has different effects on the proliferation of HCC cells, at the various concentrations of this agent in vitro. Such effects of tamoxifen on TGF-β expression may inhibit the growth and progression of HCCs over-expressing TGF-β1 in vivo.

신동명,김우식,김용욱 경희대학교 산학협력기술연구원 1997 산학협력기술연구논문집 Vol.3 No.-

오르니틴-아스파테이트의 용해도와 drowning-out결정화에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 오르니틴-아스파테이트 용액에 알코올을 첨가하면 오르니틴-아스파테이트의 용해도가 극적으로 감소하며, 결과적으로 오르니틴-아스파테이트의 침전이 일어난다. 오르니틴-아스파테이트 침전공정에서 오르니틴-아스파테이트의 회수율과 결정크기는 주입속도, 교반속도 및 주입방식에 크게 영향을 받았다. 또한, 물과 알코올의 혼합액에서 오르니틴-아스파테이트의 용해도는 알코올 분율이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 알코올-물 혼합용액에서 오르니틴-아스파테이트의 용해도는 Cohn식과 Wilson식들에 의해 성공적으로 예측될 수 있다. Study on solubility and drowning-out crystallization of ornithine-aspartate was carried out. Addition of alcohol to ornithine-aspartate solution reduces dramatically the solubility of ornithine-aspartate and results in the precipitation of ornithine-aspartate. In the process of ornithine-aspartate precipitation the recovery and crystal size of the ornithine-aspartate were significantly affected by the feeding rate , agitation rate and feeding mode. In water and alcohol mixture, the solubility of ornithirne-aspartate was also presented to be reduced as increasing alcohol fraction. The solubility of ornithine-aspartate in solution of alcohol-water mixture can be successfully predicted by Cohn and Wilson equations.

Semi-solid forming is relatively new process for forming alloys in the semi-solid condition into near net produce. It relies on the behaviour of semi-solid slurrys in which the solid exists in the form of non-dendritic, spheroidal particles in a liquid matrix. Powder of the Al-20Si-5Fe-2Ni alloy was manufactured by spray forming and powder metallurgy, one of the rapid cooling method, and its microstructure became fine with several ㎛ size through the extrusion process. Spray forming and powder metallurgy are a rapid solidification process in which capable of producing materials consisted of very fine, uniform particles. Spray forming can be described as incorperating the advantages of powder metallurgy without disadvantages of degassing and consolidation. In this paper, the microstructural evolution of the P/M, S/F Al-20Si-5Fe-2Ni alloys and wrought Al 2024 alloys were investigated various heating conditions by high frequency induction heating system.
