Kim,Sea-Hyun,Jung,Hyun-Kwon,Jang,Yong-Seok 한국자원식물학회 2004 Plant Resources Vol.7 No.2

New thornless cultivar of castor aralia(Kalopanax septemlobus Koidz.) was developed and selected in Cheongsong, Prov. of GyeongSangbuk-do during the period from 1994 to 1999 by Korea Forest Research Institute(KFRI). The new thornless cultivar, Cheongsong II is characterized by a thinner outer-bark and soft, wider leaves, and is particularly characterized by thornless stems. This cultivar has a thinner outer-bark(8.82mm) when compared with thorned type trees(13.95mm). It also has a larger leaves than does thorned type trees. Consequently, the new thornless cultivar, Cheongsong II is defined to have thinner bark and longer and wider leaves than do other thorned type trees. thorned type trees.

저자 등은 기존의 치료에 반응하지 않은 중증 허혈성 지체질환 환자를 대상으로 하여 vascular endothelial growth factor를 이용한 혈관신생 유전자 치료를 시행하였다. 치료 후 환자의 허혈에 의한 하지 통증이 현격하게 감소하고 상처의 진행이 측부혈관이 많이 증가됨이 관찰되어 이에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. We report VEGF-induced angiogenic gene therapy in a patient with critical limb ischemia, who did not respond to conventional treatment. This patient was the first case in a dose-escalating series of phase I clinical trial. The patient had severe resting pain, gangrene and diffuse ulcer in his left foot. Total 1,000㎍ of naked DNA encoding human VEGF165 was administered intramuscularly to 8 sites of the loft lower extremity. Four weeks after the first 1,000㎛ was administered to the same sites (total dose: 2,000㎛). After gene therapy, resting pain gradually reduced and the amount of analgesics taken by the patient decreased. The ischemic wound of lower extremity slightly improved. However, there was no complete wound healing at 12 weeks of treatment. Digital subtraction angiography at 12 weeks after gene therapy showed an increase in collateral vessels at the mid-tibial, ankle and foot arch levels. Immediately and up to 12 weeks, there was no complication related to gene therapy. These findings may be cautiously interpreted to indicate that intramuscular injection of naked plasmid DNA of VEGF_165 may induce therapeutic angiogencsis in a patient with critical limb ischemia. Further clinical evaluation of VEGF-induced gene therapy is needed to evaluate the safety and efficiency of this treatment.(Korean J Med 64:85-90, 2003)

著者들은 家兎와 人體로부터 採取한 血淸과 諸臟器組織을 使用하여 ALPI 電氣泳動像을 觀察하고 生化學的 定量法을 利用하여 ALP의 活性度를 測定試圖하였으며 臟器特異性 沮害因子에 對한 影響을 觀察하였다. 家兎 血淸 및 諸臟器組織 ALPI電氣泳動에서 血淸은 ±의 活性度를 가진 α2와 α2/β分劃을 나타내었으며 肝組纖은 血淸보다 빠른 移動度를 가진 ??의 α_1과 α_2分劃을 나타내었다. 그리고 肝, 骨, 腎 淋巴腺, 脾臟 및 腸組織에서는 顯著하게 높은 活性度를 나타내는 各各 서로 相異한 分劃을 볼 수 있었으며 人體諸 臟器와大體로 類似하였으나 家兎 血淸의 ALP는 사람에서 와는 다르게 肝組織의 分劃과 一致하지 않고 오히려 骨組織과 더 잘 一致되는 것 같았다. ALPI 活性度에 있어서 家兎의 諸臟器는 生化學的 定量法으로 腎 ALP의 活性度가 49.5B.L. units로 다른 臟器組織에 비하여 顯著하게 높았으며, 그 다음은 脾臟, 脊椎骨, 肝, 肺淋巴腺 및 脾 順으로 높은 活性度를 나타내었으며 人體에 있어서는 胎盤, 骨, 小賜, 脾臟, 肝 및 腎臟의 順으로 높았다. 臟器 特異性 沮害因子에 對한 影響에 있어서 胎盤分劃은 特有하게 耐熱性을 나타내었고 보다 urea低抗性이며 肝分劃은 neuraminidase에 對하여 移動度의 遲延을 招來하였다. The studies upon cellulose acetate microzone electrophoretic patterns, quantitative estimation and effects of organspecific inhibitor on ALP isoenzyme of rabbit and human sera and various organ tissues were performed. On electrophoretic pattern the tissue ALP from the liver bone kidney lymph node spleen and intestine showed the characteristic fraction of high activities. The electrophoretic mobility of rabbit serum ALP was not correspond to the liver ALP as observed in human serum and it appeared to be rather corresponded to the bone ALP, which seemed to be the origin of ALP in serum of rabbit. In the quantitative measurement of tissue ALP activity the kidney ALP showed the highest level and the activity of the skeletal muscle ALP was the lowest(1.5 B. L. units), while higher activities were observable in placenta, bone, intestine, spleen, liver and kidney in order. On the effect of organ specific physico chemical agents the placental ALPI was highly stable to the heat and relatively resistant to urea while other organ ALPI were on the contrary. The neuraminidase seemed to effect to the motility of liver fraction.

Oxygen deficiency has been frequent in a clouted space. Wood consumes oxygen and discharges carbon dioxide Instead of photosynthesis in closed space without light, so do some microorganisms on the surface. We experienced a case that a healthy Insect-proofer fell down and died of asphyxia on stair-board at 7 m below the hatch of the cargo-hold shipping wood Analysis of gases in cargo-hold revealed O2; 12.3%, CO; 105 ppm, CH4; 2.7%, and H2S; 1.9% at 1 m below the hatch, and then O2; 6.1%, CO; 220 ppm, CH4; 2.9%, and H2S, 2.3 ppm at 2.5 m below the hatch. Autopsy findings were unremarkable. We justiced the cause of death asphyxia due to oxygen deficiency. As seen in this case, the serious oxygen deficiency was accounted for oxygen consumption by wood and microorganisms.

목적 : 제일제당에서는 녹농균의 세포외막 단밸질을 유효성분으로 하는 백신인 CFC-101을 개발하였으며, 동물시험에서 이 백신의 안전성과 유효성을 입증하였다. 본 연구에서는 이 녹농균 백신의 인체에 대한 안전성과 면역원성을 평가하는 동시에 인체 접종시의 최적 투여 용량을 결정하기 위하여 제 I/Ⅱa상 임상시험을 수행하였다. 방법 : 건강한 성인 남자를 피험자로 선별하여 각 용량군에 백신투여자 6명, 위약투여자 2명을 배정하였다. 백신 투여군은 0.25mg, 0.5mg 또는 1.0mg 용량의 녹농균 백신을 7일 간격으로 3회에 걸쳐 근육주사 하였으며, 위약 투여군에게는 세포외막 단백질을 제외한 동일한 성분을 투여하였다. 백신접종 후 국소적 또는 전신적인 반응의 발생여부를 관찰하고, 혈액시료를 체취하여 백신의 역가와 유효성을 검정하였다. 결과 : 녹농균 백신 CFC-101은 모든 접종자에서 양호한 내약성을 보였다. 또한 0.5mg 과 1.0mg 백신 투여군에서는 100%의 항체양전율을 나타내었다. 생성된 항체는 녹농균 세포외막단백질에 특이성을 보였고, 녹농균 감염에 대해 방어효능이 있었다. 결론 : 이와같은 결과로부터 이 녹농균 백신은 인체에 안전하게 투여할 수 있으며, 높은 항체 생성능으로 감염방어 효능을 보이고 0.5mg과 1.0mg이 최적용량인 것으로 판단되었다. Background : We developed a Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane protein(OMP) vaccine CFC-101, and the prophylactic efficacy of which has been demonstrated in animal models. In order to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the P. aeruginosa vaccine, we carried out a phase I/Ⅱa clinical trial in healthy male volunteers. Methods : Groups of eight volunteers, including two placebo subjects, were vaccinated intramuscularly with three doses of 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0 mg of the vaccine at one week intervals. Sings of systemic and local reactions observed after vaccination were recorded for each vaccinee for 5 days. Physical examinations were performed on days 0, 1, 7, 8, 14, 15, 21, and 42, and clinical laboratory tests were done on days 0, 3, and 21. Blood samples for assay of serum antibody levels were obtained up to 42 days after the first vaccination. Results : The vaccine was generally well tolerated by all vaccinees, showing no significant side effects. In the three dosage groups, all vaccinees, except one receiving the 0.25 mg dose, showed significant elevation in serum IgG antibody titers against the vaccine proteins, indicating 100% seroconversion in 0.5 and 1.0 mg groups. The human antibodies induced by the vaccine were specific for P. aeruginosa OMPs, as confirmed by western blot analysis and immunoprecipitation assays. The capacity of the human antisera to enhance opsonophagocytic killing activity by polymorphonuclear leukocytes and to confer protection against P. aeruginosa infections indicates that the antibodies elicited by the vaccine have protective efficacy. Conclusion : We conclude that the P. aeruginosa OMP vaccine is safe and effective for human use and its optimal dose to be 0.5 or 1.0 mg.

Wang-Qu [9]는 패턴 인식, 이미지 처리, 근사 추론, 퍼지 제어 등 다양한 분야에서 광범위하게 적용할 수 있는 애매한 소프트 집합의 엔트로피, 유사성 측도 및 거리 측도를 도입했다. 또한, Jang-Kwon [3]에서 처음으로 구간값 함수의 쇼케이 적분을 정의하고 이와 관련된 성질을 조사하였다. 그이후 많은 논문에서 구간값 쇼케이적분의 응용을 연구해 왔다. 애매한 집합의 속성이 구간값 소속함수의 성질을 가지고 있음을 이용하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 애매한 소프트 집합상에서 쇼케이 적분을 정의하고, 이들 적분에 의해 정의된 구간값 거리 측도를 조사한다. Wang-Qu [9] introduced entropy, similarity measure and distance measure of vague soft sets which can be extensively applied in many fields such as pattern recognition, image processing, approximation inference, and fuzzy control. In addition, for the first time in Jang-Kwon [3], the Choquet integral of the interval-valued function was defined and the related properties of them were investigated. Since then, many papers have studied the application of interval-valued Choquet integrals. We note that vague soft sets have the interval-valued membership functions. In this paper, by using interval-valued Choquet integrals and vague soft sets, we define the Choquet integral on vague soft sets and investigate an interval-valued distance measure defined by them.

Porous silicon photodetectors with a vertical n-ITO/p-PSL heterojunction structure have been fabricated. From I-V characteristics of fabricated devices with white light from 0 to 3000 Lux, we find that the photocurrent varies linearly with incident light intensity. The transparent ITO affords light emission through the top surface of the device, as well as providing passivation and hence long-tens stability.

정상과 갑상선 종양조직에서 사람 IGF-I 유전자의 발현

Many of the growth-promoting properties of growth hormone(GH) are mediated by insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I), a highly conserved circulating 70-amino acid peptide. Recent studies have shown that multiple mechanisms influence IGF-I gene expression, including transcription from two promoters, alternative RNA splicing, and variable polyadenylation. In thyroid tissue, thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH) and IGF-I are the most possible candidates for follicular cell proliferation and hypertrophy. Actually IGF-I had autocrine and paracrine effect for tissue growing. We prepared thyroid tumor tissue mRNAs using single step method for detecting IGF-I levels according to different tissues, i.e., thyroid adenoma or papillary thyroid carcinoma. We used Northern blot analysis for IGF-I mRNA and RNase protection assay (RPA) for IGF-I transcription start sites. For Northern blot, we used whole human IGF-I cDNA as a DNA probe and for RPA, we used IGF-I exon 1 containing noncoding promoter 1 as a riboprobe. We got good RNA bands from Northern blot analysis around 1 kb (IGF-IA) and 7.5 kb (IGF-IB) region. To clarify the amount of both IGF-IA and IB mRNAs, we measured autoradiographied signal of IGF-I mRNAs bands using densitometer. In IGF-IA signals, there's no change among liver and thyroid tissues, but in case of IGF-IB mRNA bands, the signal was markedly increased in thyroid carcinoma tissues than that of normal thyroid tissue (85% vs 14%). In the study of RPA, all thyroid tissues used the same transcription start sites as those of liver's. We concluded that that this different regulation of IGF-I mRNA was originated from tissue specificity. That meant some tissue specific transcription factor/s were related to tissue IGF-I expression.

Effects of Phenytoin and Diazepam on the Seizure Activity in the Cortical Dysplasia Animal Models

Kim, Si-Hyung,Choi, In-Sun,Cho, Jin-Hwa,Park, Eun-Ju,Jang, Il-Sung,Choi, Byung-Ju,Kim, Hyun-Jung,Kim, Young-Jin,Nam, Soon-Hyeun The Korean Academy of Oral Biology 2006 International Journal of Oral Biology Vol.31 No.2

Dysplasia-associated seizure disorders are markedly resistant to pharmacological intervention. Relatively little research has been conducted studying the effects of antiepileptic drugs(AEDs) on seizure activity in a rat model of dysplasia. We have used rats exposed to methylazoxymethanol acetate(MAM) in utero, an animal model featuring nodular heterotopia, to investigate the effects of AEDs in the dysplastic brain. Pilocarpine was used to induce acute seizure in MAM-exposed and age-matched vehicle-injucted control animals. Field potential recordings were used to monitor amplitude and numbers population spikes, and paired pulse inhibition in response to stimulation of commissural pathway. Two commonly used AEDs were tested: diazepam 5, 2.5mg/kg;phenytoin 40, 60mg/kg. Diazepam(DZP) and phenytoin(PHT) reduced the amplitude of population spike in control and MAM-exposed rats. However, the amplitude of population spike was nearly eliminated in control rats as compared to the MAM-exposed rats. Pharmaco-resistance was tested by measuring seizure latencies in awake rats after pilocarpine administration(320mg/kg, i.p.) with and without pretreatment with AEDs. Pre-treatment with PHT 60 mg prolonged seizure latency in control rats, but not in MAM-exposed animals. The main findings of this study are that acute seizures initiated in MAM-exposed rats are relatively resistant to standard AEDs assessed in vivo. These data suggest that animal model with cortical dysplasia can be used to screen the effects of potential AEDs.
