In order to observe the effects of ascorbate on the background current in pyloric circular smooth muscle cells, caffeine of which action was fairly clarified, was used to induce the current systems. To block all of the known currents, various blocking agents were added in the external bathing solution. A part of pyloric circular muscle tissue was excised out, and enzymatic isolation technique was used to obtain Ca^2+ -tolerant single circular muscle cells. The whole cell mode of patch-clamp experiment was conducted. The results were as follows : 1. Ascorbate induced the increase of inward currents in the hyperpolarized potential ranges, and quite a large increase of outward currents in the depolarized ranges. 2. Caffeine also induced similar results, but the magnitude of outward current was smaller than that of assorbate in the depolarized ranges. 3. These phenomena were disappeared by addition of the anion channel blocker. 4. Replacement of external NaCl with NMG·Cl was rarely affected the effects of ascorbate and and caffeine. But the effects of ascorbate and caffeine were almost abolished when sxternal Cl^- was substituted for aspartate. These results suggested that ascorbate affected chloride current which thought as a component of the background currents in the pyloric circular smooth muscle cells.

Chloride current has been known as a part of backgroud current. Recently, its roles in the maintenance of action potential have much attention. The purposes of the present study are clarifying the chloride current component which might play an important role in generation and maintenance of the action potential in the pyloric circular smooth musele cells. We used the whold cell voltage clamp techniques to assess the current and voltage responses induced by caffeine superfusion. The results were as follow: 1. Caffeine superfusion induced the increase of inward currents in the hyperpolarized potential ranges, and the increase of outward currents in the depolarized ranges. 2. Sodium ion removal from the external medium and the addition of cadmium ion rarely affected these current response. 3. Duration of the action potential was elongated by application of the caffeine and modified by the change of the intracellular chloride ion concentraion. 4. The effect of caffeine superfusion on the action potential disappeared by the addition of the anion channel blocker. The results suggest that caffeine superfusion may prolong the duration of repolarized phase of the action potential probably by the chloride current activation in the gastric antral smooth muscle.

In order to observe the effect of ascorbate on the Ca^2+-activated K^+ current in pyloric circular muscle cells which plays a critical role in generation and maintenance of repolarization and automatism, apart of pyloric circular muscle tissue was excised out, digested in collagenase containing Ca^2+-free physiological solution to get single circular muscle cells and the whole cell mode of patch-clamp experiment was conducted. Following results were obtained : 1. Oscillatory outward current was reduced by ascorbate in case of high intrapipette Ca^2+ concentration in whole voltage range and was enhanced in case of low intrapipette Ca^2+ concentration. 2. Oscillatory outward current was reduced in Ca^2+-free physiological solution with calcium channel blocker and not effected by ascorbate. 3. There were no qualitative differences among the control and ascorbate-treated group in effects of pH, steady state inactivation and the remaining component of the outward current. The above results could be concluded that ascorbate effects calcium-dependent component of the oscillatory outward current in the pyloric circular smooth muscle cells.

In order to clarify the existence of the non-selective cationic channel of CI^- -channel in gastric antral smooth muscle cells which suggested to play a critical role in generation and maintenance of depolarization and exitability, the whole cell mode of patch-clamp experiment was conducted. Following results were obtained ; 1. Puff injection of caffeine induced the increase of inward currents in the hyperpolarized holding potential ranges, and the increase of outward currents in the hypopolarized range. 2. In the case of blocking of all known currents, these current components were observed. 3. These current components were disappeared when known as a Cl^- -channel blocking agent was treated and intracellular EGTA concentration was increased. The above results could be concluded that these current components strongly suggested as a Ca^2+ -dependent Cl^- current in the gastric antral smooth muscle cells.

The nutrient removal-capacity of four major dominant species distributed in Namchang-chon polluted with livestock wastewater and Samhyang-chon polluted with industrial and domestic wastewater were investigated. Water qualities and soil properties of three polluted sites were a quite different in concentration of nitrogen, SS and Ga. Dominant species in livestock wasetewater were Persicaria thunbergii, Zizania latiforia, Phragmites communis and Oenanthe japanica, those in industrial and domestic were Phragmites communis. Changes of NO₃-N, NH₄-N and P concentrations of culture solution are high in cultivor of Zizania latiforia and Oenanthe japanica. All four species removed NO₃-N most effectively. In experiment used directely polluted water from three areas ; all species from livestock wasetewater uptaked NO₃-N effectively. Phragmites communis from domestic, and Persicaria thunbergii and Oenanthe japanica from industrial and domestic wasetewater removed NH₄-N effectively. All species cultured in industrial waserewater removed P well, and Phragmites communis and Persicaria thunbergii cultured in domestic wastewater removed it moderately.

Eighty-nine patients with mandibular fracture were treated by open reduction and internal fixation using the monocortical titanium miniplate(Leibinger Co.). Postsurgical intermaxillary fixation was carried out for 2 to 18 days according to the patient's status. Seven patients developed infections postoperatively(7.9%). Five patients were favorably treated by incision and drainage and/or saucerization. But two patients were not controlled by early surgical intervention and should have been followed by plate removal, saucerization and secondary reconstruction including the bone graft. This article reports the postoperative infection associated with miniplate fixation of mandibular fractures and discuss the incidence, cause, treatment and prognosis with careful case analyses.

Cyclosporin is a relatively new immunosuppressive agent which has been used to prevent organ transplant rejection, to treat type-I diabetes mellitus and several other autoimmune disorders. It is anticipated that the therapeutic use of cyclosporin will increase progressively in the future to treat numerous other disorders. As its clinical use broadens, it will needed for health professionals to be familiar with the beneficial effects as well as some of the undesirable side effects of cyclosporin therapy. A side effect of this drug in dentistry appears to be pronounced gingival hyperplasia. Cyclosporin induced gingival hyperplasia is indistinguishable from gingival hyperplasia induced by phenytoin and nifedipine in clinical and histopathologic finding. We experienced two cases of gingival hyperplasia secondary to cyclosporin therapy in patients, 48-year old & 28-year old females who received a kidney allograft transplant. Clinical examinations revealed a severely overgrown and inflammed gingiva. Surgical excision of the excess tissue was accomplished under local anesthesia. On follow-up check, gingival hyperplasia in a 48-year old patient whose oral hygiene was very poor showed successive recurrence after three times surgical excision, another patient who could control oral hygiene thoroughly showed good healing. Conclusively, it seems to be very important to control oral hygiene thoroughly to decrease occurrence and recurrence of cyclosporin-induced gingival hyperplasia.

Background: The effectiveness of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, visible light, or infrared light therapy for the treatment of acne is the subject of ongoing scientific debate. Objective: This study was conducted to investigate changes in sebum production and the expression of inflammatory cytokines, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), following exposure of cultured human sebocytes to UVA radiation and light at wavelengths of 650 nm and 830 nm. Methods: Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays were performed to measure the gene expression levels of inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α), MMPs (MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9), and AMPs (psoriasin, hBD-2, hBD-3, and LL-37) in cultured sebocytes after exposure to UVA radiation (2 J/cm2, 3 J/cm2, and 5 J/cm2) and light at wavelengths of 650 nm (14 J/cm2, 29 J/cm2, and 87 J/cm2) and 830 nm (5 J/cm2, 10 J/cm2, and 30 J/cm2). Expression of inflammatory cytokine proteins and sebum production were measured using enzyme- linked immunoassays and a lipid analysis kit, respectively. Results: Exposure of cultured sebocytes to UVA radiation and light at wavelengths of 650 nm and 830 nm did not show a significant increase in the expression of inflammatory cytokines, MMPs, or AMPs. Sebum production was not significantly decreased after exposure to UVA radiation and light at both wavelengths. Conclusion: We propose that UVA radiation, visible light, and infrared light can be used to target Propionibacterium acnes for the treatment of acne, without an increase in the expression of inflammatory biomarkers and sebum production.(Ann Dermatol 27(2) 163∼ 170, 2015)
