Background : ICAM-1 act as one of major adhesion molecules in the atherosclerotic lesion. ICAM-1 expression is mainly regulated at the level of transcription and depend on IFN-γ signal transduction pathway in which the STAT1 transcrption factor is a critical intermediate. IFN-γreceptor not only initiates tyrosine 701 phosphorylation of STAT1 by Jak1 and Jak2, but also phosphorylates serine 727 through the activation of Raf-1/MAP kinases. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors have anti-atherosclertic effects, beyond normalization of hypercholesterolemia, by directly acting on endothelial cells, macrophages and vascular smooth muscle cells. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors suppress the synthesis of isoprenoid intermediates such as geranylgeranyl-pyrophosphate or farnesylpyrophosphate. These effects results inhibitors suppress the synthesis of isoprenoid intermediates such as geranylgeranyl-pyrophosphate or farnesylpyrophosphate. These effects results inhibition posttranslational farnesylation and geranyl-geranylation processing of small GTP-binding preoteins and inhibition of normal signaling activities. Method : We made several 5'-deletion constructs of rat ICAM-1 promoter and analyzed the promoter activities by measuring the luciferase activity after transfection into ECV304 cells and smooth muscle cells. We checked the level of total and phosphorylated STAT1 protein by immunoblot analysis using specific antibodies. Results : Lovastatin inhibits IFN-γ-induced ICAM-1 gene expression in the ECV304cell. The cells pretreated with PD98059, MEKK inhibitor showed significantly low ICAM-1 RNA induction with IFN-γ stimulatio. IFN-γ induced phosphorylation of tyrosine 701 was not significantly changed by the pretreatment of lovastatin. But lovastatin suppresses IFN-γ-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/ERK2 which are responsible for the seine 727 phosphorylation in STAT1. Conclusion : We showed that HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, lovastatin, suppresses IFN-γ mediated ICAM-1 gene expression through the inhibition of transcription. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor suppresses IFN-γ-induced phosphorylation of serine 727 in STAT1 through the modulation of MAP kinases.

Background : In the previous stuides, we identified that the interferon-r activated sequence (GAS) in the 5-flanking region of rat ICAM-1 gene is major element for interferon-r-inducible expression of the gene in rat thyroid cells, FRTL-5. We here, investigated the role of transcriptional coactivators, CBP(CREB binding protein) and CⅡTA (class Ⅱ transactivator) in the modulation of the activity of GAS which could interacts with signal transducers and activators of transcription-1 and 3 (STAT1 and STAT3). Methods : The expression of CBP RNA and protein were quantitated in FRTL-5 after stimulation with interferon-r (IFN-r), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), forskolin and methimazole. Direct association of CBP with STAT were analyzed by immunoprecipitation. The transcriptional roles of CBP and CⅡTA in the regulation of GAS were assessed by the cotransfection with their expression vectors with reporters; 5-deletion constructs of rat ICAM-1 promoter or 8xGAS-luc constructs, into FRTL-5 thyroid cells. Results : The level of CBP RNA and protein were not changed by the treatment with TSH, IFN-r, forskolin and methimazole in FRTL-5, FRT and BRL liver cells. The CBP could be directly associated with STAT1. Furthermore, the overexpression of CBP significantly increases the both promoter activities; rat ICAM-1 gene promoter which has GAS element and 8xGAS-luc cassette constructs. However, the cotransfection of CⅡTA decreased the constitutive and CBP-mediated transactivation of rat ICAM-1 promoter and 8xGAS-luc cassette constructs. Conclusion : We identified that the two tanscriptional coactivators; CBP and CⅡTA has differential roles in the regulation of transcriptional activity of GAS drived promoter. CBP increases the GAS activity through the direct binding with STAT1, but CⅡTA inhibited the CBP-mediated transactivation of GAS activity.

진보정당의 정책대안으로서의 지대조세제 : 2002년 서울시장 선거시 사회당의 공약을 중심으로 Focused on the Election Pledge of the Socialist Party in the 2002 Mayoral Election of Seoul Metropolitan City

김홍순 昌原大學校社會科學硏究所 2003 사회과학연구 Vol.10 No.-

이 글은 2002년 서울시장 선거에서 사회당이 내건 지대조세제 공약을 통해 우리나라 진보정당의 정책대안을 논리적 정합성, 실현가능성, 이념적 지향 그리고 대안의 모색 등 네 가지 차원에서 검토하였다. 결론적으로, 지대조세제는 논리적, 현실적 측면에서 일정한 한계가 있지만 이에 대한 보완이 이루어질 경우, 현실정책으로서 채용이 가능한 정책제안으로 분석되었다. 그러나, 이념적 지향차원에서는 지대조세제 공약이 사회당이 내걸고 있는 정강과 일정한 괴리가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 지대조세제가 사회당의 정강을 실현하기 위한 정책수단으로서 활용되는 것은 무방하지만, 사회당을 대표하는 전략적 슬로건으로 활용되는 것은 부적절하다고 평가되었다.

목적 : 양성 갑상선 결절 환자에서의 PEI의 치료효과 및 부작용을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법 : 양성 갑상선 결절 환자 88명을 대상으로 초음파 소견에 따라 낭종성 결절, 복합성 결절, 고형성 결절 등 세 그룹으로 분류후 전체 및 각각에 대한 PEI의 치료효과 및 부작용을 조사하였다. 결과 : 양성 갑상선 결절 환자 88명을 PEI로 치료후 결절의 크기가 50%이상 감소한 경우는 전체 환자중 77.2%이었고 각 결절별로 살펴보면 고형성 결절에서 52.6%, 복합성 결절에서 72.4%, 낭종성 결절은 92.5%이었다. 부작용은 동통, 결절내 출혈, 감염, 결절의 누출등이 있었으나 대부분 무증상이었다. 결론 : PEI는 양성 갑상선 결절 환자증 적응증을 잘 살펴 고려해 볼 수 있는 치료법이라 생각되며 특히 낭종성 결절 환자에서 주사기에 의한 흡인후에 재발한 경우 일차적인 치료로 PEI를 고려해 볼 수 있겠다. Ultrasonography(US)-guided percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) has been performed for the treatment of autonomous functioning thyroid nodules, thyroid cysts, & cold thyroid nodules. The author studied the efficacy of PEI in the treatment of benign cold thyroid nodules both solid and cystic (complex & pure). Eighty-eight euthyroid outpatients (age:44.2±13.9years, 75 women and 13 men) with benign cold thyroid nodules or simple thyroid cysts (69 with a single nodule and 19 with a prominent nodule within multinodular goiter) were includied in this study. After PEI, each subtype of thyroid nodules was divided into three groups in according to volume reduction complete response (90% or more of volume reduction), partial response (50% or more of reducton but below 90%), and failure (below 50% or increase in size) group. Overall response rates of PEI for benign thyroid nodules were complete 45(51.1%), partial 23(26.1%), failure 20(22.7%). In 20 cold solid nodules, complete response was observed in 6(30.0%), partial response in 5(25.0%), and failure in 9(45.0%). In 28 complex cysts, complete response was observed in 8(28.6%), partial response in 12 (42.9%), and failure in 8(28.6%). In 40 pure cysts, complete response was observed in 31(77.5%), partial response in 6 (15.0%), and failure in 3 (7.5%). Side effects comprised pain 8 (9.2%), intranodular bleeding 13 (14.6%), extracapsular leakage 1(1.1%), infection 1 (1.1%), increased size l(1.1%), and none 64(72.7%). PEI may prove a safe & effective tool for the therapy of cold thyroid nodules in selected cases and may be the treatment of choice of recurrent thyroid cysts. However, further investigation involving a larger number of patients and a longer follow-up is needed.

김완수,김흥준,박순규 진주산업대학교 2000 산업과학기술연구소보 Vol.- No.7

Today, most of the well-known software development tools and methods faced with problems of scalability, modularity, granularity, and maintenance. These problems result in the fact that these tools and methods are standalone. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of software development environment for Java application based upon CORBA-based Client/Server model. Proposed model has facilities to overcome a problem caused by updates and its distribution and is possible to overcome problems of scalability, modularity and granularity because it based upon Client/Server model.

Capsaicin이 성숙한 흰쥐의 통각반응과 open-field 행동에 미치는 영향

박순권,김현택,나흥식,홍승길 한국심리학회 한국심리학회지 생물 및 생리 Vol.7 No.1

성숙한 흰쥐에게 전신계로 투여한 capsaicin(150㎎/㎏)이 개방장(open-field)행동과 통각반응의 역치 및 반응잠재기에 미치는 효과를 알아보았다. 첫째, open-field행동에는 capsaicin의 효과가 관찰되지 않았는데 이것은 capsaicin이 흰쥐의 정서반응성과 운동기능에는 영향을 미치지 않음을 의미하는 것이다. 둘째, capsaicin 투여에 의해 열자극에 대한 앞발 및 뒷발핥기의 역치는 변화되지 않았으나, 뛰어오르기의 역치는 증가되었다. 또한 역치 이상의 열자극에 대한 뒷발핥기 반응의 잠재기도 capsaicin 투여에 의해 증가되었다. 이 결과는 비교적 약한 열자극에 대한 적응반응에는 capsaicin이 영향을 미치지 않으나 강한 열자극에 대한 대처반응에는 영향을 미치는 것으로 해석된다. We investigated the effects of capsaicin(s.c. 150㎎/㎏) on the open-field behaviors and the thresholds and latency of nociceptive responses in adult rats. Results are as follows. 1) Capsaicin did not affect open-field behaviors. It hints that capsaicin did not alter the emotionality and motor function of rats. 2) Whereas the threshold of jumping was elevated, those of fore and hind paw licking were not in animals treated with capsaicin. Capsaicin also enhanced hind paw licking latency to thermal stimulus over thershold in hot plate test. These results suggest that capsaicin affects the coping reaction to strong thermal stimulus, but not adaptive reaction to mild stimulus, in adult rats.

Capsaicin 사전 투여에 의한 흰쥐의 공격성 감소 및 자율적 체온조절의 결손

박순권,홍승길,나흥식,김현택 한국심리학회 한국심리학회지 생물 및 생리 Vol.7 No.1

capsaicin 사전 처치가 흰쥐의 공격성과 체온조절에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 생후 6주경에 capsaicin을 피하주사하였고, 완전히 성숙한 후에 공격성 및 체온조절 기능을 검사하였다. 실험 1의 공격성 검사 결과 capsaicin 처치동물들의 공격성은 통제동물보다 낮았는데, 이것은 선행 연구의 결과와 상반된다. 체온조절 기능을 알아본 실험 2에서는 capsaicin 처치동물들이 37℃ 및 40℃ 조건에서 과체온과 빠른 체온증가를 보여주었다. 이것은 출생 직후 또는 성숙한 후에 약물을 투여한 선행연구들과 일치되는 결과이다. 따라서 capsaicin이 체온조절에 미치는 영향은 투여 시기와 무관한 것 같다. 논의에서는 본 연구의 두 가지 결과를 시상하부와 관련시켜 해석하였다. The present study was designed to examine effects of capsaicin administration on aggressive behaviors and autonomic thermoregulation in rats. In six-week-old rat, capsaicin was injected subcutaneously on 4 consecutive days in increasing doses(20㎎/㎏, 30㎎/㎏, 30㎎/㎏, 50㎎/㎏) to total of 150㎎/㎏ of the drug. The controls were treated in the same way with vehicle alone. Two experments began six or eight weeks after the treatment. In experiment 1, isolation-induced agressive behaviors, scored a 10-min session in the dyadic situation, were significantly decreased by capsaicin pretreatment. This result was not in accord with the previous findings. In experiment 2, body temperature of the capsaicin-treated rats increased more than the control's at two amibient temperatures studied(37℃ and 40℃). Our result concerning thermoregulation supports the preceding studies that applied to the capsaicin-treated animals as neonate or adult. Thus, it is likely that the effect of capsaicin treatment on thermoregulation has nothing to do with the age of capsaicin injection. The capsaicin effects from this study were compared with hypothalamic lesion effects in the discussion part.

UR에 대응한 지역농업의 발전방안 : 시설원예농업을 중심으로 With an Emphasis on the Greenhouse Horticulture Farming

배흥규,김진수,이영기,정순재,정해진,이상학 東亞大學校 1995 東亞論叢 Vol.32 No.-

The production of greenhouse horticultural products in the east region of Kyungnam province is now increasing, though the productions of other argicultural sectors have been rapidly decreasing. However, as the agricultural market lies under the big pressure of the WTO system having a goal of free trade of all commodities, greenhouse horticultural farming in the region also meets with many new problems. To identify problems and prepare development strategies of the greenhouse horticultural farming for the easten Kyungnam region, 10 villages in Kimhae, Yangsan and Miryang areas were selected as sample areas and 204 greenhouse vegetable or floriculture farms were surveyed using prepared questionaires during March-April 1995. From the analysis of the regional survey results, the following proposals are suggested for the development of regional horticultural farming : 1) There were still old-fashioned greenhouse facilities such as tunnel-type vynil house, no heating system and man-power watering. Greenhouse facilities should be modernized and automated in order to overcome the severe labour shortage problem constraining the increase of the greenhouse farming size and the enhance the degree of the commodity value by uniform quality control and year-round production. The money for the modernization and automation of greehouse facilities ned to be supported by the central government, because farmers lack the ability to fund the investment. 2) Not many farmers visited agricultural extension officers to obtain cultivation techniques of greehouse horticulture farming, because extension officers lack the manpower to help solving the greehouse farming problems. Agricultural system should be adjusted to the changing agricultural production structure. Extension manpower specialized in greehouse horticultural farming need be increased and located in the regional extension offices. 3) The major reason of farmer's pessimistic prospect for the future of greegouse horticulture was the possibility of overproduction of some horticultural products. To avoid the overproduction, new entrants to the greenhouse horticultural farming of products already culticated extensively should be limited and the government support must be given to the existing greenhouse farms and major production areas. 4) Local goverment, associated agencies, and farmers should work hard cooperatively to increase the export of horticultural products especially to Japan, the largest importer of agricultural products in the world. Local governments and associated agencies can provide informations related to the export market and provide the fund for the facilities of standardization of export products. Farmers must observe the export contracts, even though the domestic price exceeds the export price. 5) Collective marketing activities of greenhouse products were found to be mainly limited to transportation and handling of sales revenue. Central and local government should support the formation and collective activities of cooperatives of specilaized producers to enhance the bargaining power of farmers. 6) The role of local government should be increased. They should actively participate in the orientation of regional greenhouse farming and play an important role in the marketing of regional greenhouse products.
