In a trial involving 240pigs, the proximate composition, physico-chemical properites, color, amino acid composition and fatty acid composition of loin muscle were investigated in feeding various finished pig fees. The treatments included feeding control) the low-nutrient density diet(2,960㎈/㎏ ME, 12.25% CP, 0.41% lysine and 0.70% Ca), T1) the medium-nutrient density diet(3,220㎈/㎏ ME, 15.50% CP, 0.87% lysine and 0.90% Ca) and T2) the hight-nutrient density diet(3,350㎈/㎏ ME, 17.50% CP, 1.05% lysine and 0.90% Ca). The crude ash contents of T1 were significantly(p<0.05) higher than those of control and T2. The ?_(u) of T2 were significantly higher than those of control and T1, but cooking loss were significantly(p<0.05) lower than those of control. In compositions amino acid, aspartic acid, threonine, iso-leucine and histidine of T2 were higher than those of control, but proline and glycine were significantly(p<0.05) lower then those of control. The oleic acid(18:1) contents of control were significantly higher than those of T1 and T2, but the contents of linoleic acid(C18:2) and arachidonic(C20:4) acid were significantly(p<0.05) lower. Inconclusion, the results of the experiments suggest that the high-nutrient density diet for pigs tended to improve the postmortem ?_(u) and cooking loss.

Lee, S.H.,Joo, H.,Lee, J.H.,Lee, J.H.,Kang, J.J.,Lee, H.W.,Lee, D.,Kang, C.K. Pergamon Press 2017 Deep-sea research. Part II, Topical studies in oce Vol.143 No.-

Korea-Russia joint expeditions have been conducted mainly in the less studied Russian sector of the East/Japan Sea to understand the physical and ecological structures. In this study, the carbon uptake rates of phytoplankton measured in 2012 (middle-late October) and 2015 (middle April-early May) were analyzed to understand seasonal and spatial distributions of phytoplankton production, using a <SUP>13</SUP>C-<SUP>15</SUP>N dual isotope tracer technique. The water columns in the euphotic layers were well mixed during our cruise periods in both years. The water column-integrated chl-a concentrations (mean +/- S.D. = 2.28 +/- 1.47mgm<SUP>-3</SUP>) in 2015 was significantly higher (t-test, p < 0.01) than in 2012 (mean +/- S.D. = 0.49 +/- 0.29mgm<SUP>-3</SUP>) because of different sampling seasons. Small phytoplankton (< 2 μm) were relatively dominant in 2012, whereas different sizes of phytoplankton were evenly distributed in 2015 although a spatial distribution of large phytoplankton (> 20 μm) was observed near the Russian coast. The daily carbon uptake rates in this study were 180.5 and 441.6mgC m<SUP>-2</SUP> d<SUP>-1</SUP> in 2012 and 2015, respectively which are significantly (t-test, p < 0.01) lower than the averaged values previously reported in the East/Japan Sea (863 +/- 679.6mgC m<SUP>-2</SUP> d<SUP>-1</SUP>). The potential reasons for the lower rate in this study are discussed. The small phytoplankton contribution (47.4%) averaged from the two different cruises in this study is consistent with the result (47%) reported in temperate regions. Moreover, a significantly (t-test, p < 0.01) lower contribution of small phytoplankton in total primary production than total phytoplankton biomass in this study is consistent with the results from other regions. Lower total primary production might be expected due to increasing contribution of small phytoplankton under warmer conditions.

Drastic anthocyanin increase in response to PAP1 overexpression in fls1 knockout mutant confers enhanced osmotic stress tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Lee, W. J.,Jeong, C. Y.,Kwon, J.,Kien, V.,Lee, D.,Hong, S. W.,Lee, H. Springer Science + Business Media 2016 Plant cell reports Vol.35 No.11

<P>pap1 - D/fls1ko double mutant plants that produce substantial amounts of anthocyanin show tolerance to abiotic stress. Anthocyanins are flavonoids that are abundant in various plants and have beneficial effects on both plants and humans. Many genes in flavonoid biosynthetic pathways have been identified, including those in the MYB-bHLH-WD40 (MBW) complex. The MYB gene Production of Anthocyanin Pigment 1 (PAP1) plays a particularly important role in anthocyanin accumulation. PAP1 expression in many plant systems strongly increases anthocyanin levels, resulting in a dark purple color in many plant organs. In this study, we generated double mutant plants that harbor fls1ko in the pap1-D background (i.e., pap1-D/fls1ko plants), to examine whether anthocyanins can be further enhanced by blocking flavonol biosynthesis under PAP1 overexpression. We also wanted to examine whether the increased anthocyanin levels contribute to defense against osmotic stresses. The pap1-D/fls1ko mutants accumulated higher anthocyanin levels than pap1-D plants in both control and sucrose-treated conditions. However, flavonoid biosynthesis genes were slightly down-regulated in the pap1-D/fls1ko seedlings as compared to their expression in pap1-D seedlings. We also report the performance of pap1-D/fls1ko seedlings in response to plant osmotic stresses.</P>

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of addition of mugwort powder (0.7%, 1%, 2%) on the quality characteristics of emulsion-type sausages. The pH, color, TBARS, textural properties, minerals content and sensory evaluation were evaluated. The pH values of sausage containing mugwort powder were significantly lower as compared to control during 20 days of storage, but there were higher than those of control at 40 days of storage. The L* and a* values of sausage containing mugwort powder were signficantly lower as compared to control, but the b* values were significantly higher in the sausage containing mugwort powder. The TBARS values of sausage containing mugwort powder were signfkcantly lower than those of control at 20 and 45 days of storage. The hardness values of sausage containing mugwort powder were significantly lower than those of control. The Na content of sausage containing mugwort powder were significantly lower as compared to control, but Mg, Ca, Mn and Fe contents were significantly higher in the sausage containing 2% mugwort powder. Sensory panels evaluated that sausage containing mugwort powder had the higher preference scores in mugwort flavor.

Clinical outcomes of venous thromboembolism with dalteparin therapy in multiple myeloma patients

Lee, S.E.,Jeon, Y.W.,Yoon, J.H.,Cho, B.S.,Eom, K.S.,Kim, Y.J.,Kim, H.J.,Lee, S.,Cho, S.G.,Kim, D.W.,Lee, J.W.,Min, W.S.,Kim, M.,Min, C.K. Pergamon Press 2015 Thrombosis research Vol.136 No.5

This study focused on the clinical outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) who received low-molecular-weight heparin (dalteparin) therapy. Changes in D-dimer levels before and after VTE were also evaluated. Among 549 patients treated with various chemotherapeutic agents, a total of 52 (9.47%) patients including 32 newly diagnosed with MM and 16 with relapsed/refractory MM developed VTE, 48 of whom received dalteparin. Among the 48 treated patients, 37 (77%) had proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT), four had (8%) pulmonary embolism (PE), and seven (15%) had both DVT and PE. In 32 patients with available paired samples (at baseline and VTE occurrence), significant conversion of D-dimer levels from 2.2+/-0.4mg/L to 11.8+/-1.6mg/L (P<0.001) was observed, which decreased from 10.9+/-0.4mg/L to 1.9+/-0.6mg/L one month after initiating dalteparin therapy. A total of 44 patients received dalteparin with a median duration of 4.2months (range, 2.7-9.4), and four patients were discontinued early due to death (n=3) and major bleeding (n=1). After a median follow-up of 9.0months (range, 0.7-35.8) since the first VTE episode, five patients showed recurrence of VTE with a cumulative incidence of 17.5+/-7.9%. Major bleeding occurred in three patients. In summary, dalteparin seems to be a promising drug for the treatment of VTE in MM. In addition, the significant difference in D-dimer levels observed before occurrence of VTE and after dalteparin treatment may suggest the usefulness of D-dimer testing as a surrogate marker for VTE in MM patients.

<i>Bacillus</i>‐derived poly‐γ‐glutamic acid attenuates allergic airway inflammation through a Toll‐like receptor‐4‐dependent pathway in a murine model of asthma

Lee, K.,Kim, S.‐,H.,Yoon, H. J.,Paik, D. J.,Kim, J. M.,Youn, J. Blackwell Publishing Ltd 2011 Clinical and experimental allergy Vol.41 No.8

<P><B>Summary</B></P><P><B>Background </B> Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the airways that is mediated by Th2 responses. Poly‐γ‐glutamic acid (γ‐PGA) is an extracellular polymeric compound that is synthesized by <I>Bacillus</I> cells. Previously, we found that γ‐PGA promoted Th1 cell development in a manner dependent on antigen‐presenting cells, but inhibited Th2 cell development.</P><P><B>Objective </B> To investigate the effect of γ‐PGA on dendritic cells (DCs), and its potential for treating Th2‐mediated allergic asthma.</P><P><B>Methods </B> Wild‐type, Toll‐like receptor (TLR)‐2 deficient, and TLR‐4‐defective mice were used. DCs derived from the bone marrow and extracted from the lung were stimulated with γ‐PGA and assayed for the expression of signalling molecules, costimulatory molecules, and cytokines. Mice were sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA) to induce asthma. They were repeatedly injected intranasally with γ‐PGA before and during the challenge period, and inflammation and structural remodelling of the airways were examined.</P><P><B>Results </B> γ‐PGA selectively signalled conventional DCs to activate NF‐κB and mitogen‐activated protein kinase, leading to the up‐regulation of CD86, CD40, and IL‐12, but not IL‐10 and IL‐6. These effects of γ‐PGA were dependent on TLR‐4 and independent of TLR‐2. Importantly, the intranasal administration of γ‐PGA to OVA‐sensitized/challenged mice reduced the airway hyperresponsiveness and allergic inflammation such as leucocyte influx, goblet cell hyperplasia, eosinophilia, and Th2 cytokine production. In addition to lowered IgE titres, the treatment of mice with γ‐PGA significantly reduced the multiplication and Th2 polarization of mediastinal lymph node T cells upon allergen‐specific restimulation. These anti‐asthmatic effects of γ‐PGA were also abolished in TLR‐4‐defective mice.</P><P><B>Conclusions and Clinical Relevance </B> Our data indicate that γ‐PGA activates DCs to favour Th1 cell induction through a TLR‐4‐dependent pathway and alleviates pathologic symptoms in a Th2‐biased asthmatic model. These findings highlight the potential of γ‐PGA for the treatment of asthma and other allergic disease in which Th2 polarization plays an important role.</P><P> <I>Cite this as</I>: K. Lee, S.‐H.

Ahnak functions as a tumor suppressor via modulation of TGFβ/Smad signaling pathway

Lee, I H,Sohn, M,Lim, H J,Yoon, S,Oh, H,Shin, S,Shin, J H,Oh, S-H,Kim, J,Lee, D K,Noh, D Y,Bae, D S,Seong, J K,Bae, Y S Macmillan Publishers Limited 2014 Oncogene Vol.33 No.38

We provide detailed mechanisms of Ahnak-mediated potentiation of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling, which leads to a negative regulation of cell growth. We show that Smad3 interacts with Ahnak through MH2 domain and that Ahnak stimulates Smad3 localization into nucleus leading to potentiating TGFβ-induced transcriptional activity of R-Smad. Moreover, overexpression of Ahnak resulted in growth retardation and cell cycle arrest through downregulation of c-Myc and cyclin D1/D2. We describe results from analyses of Ahnak<SUP>−/−</SUP> mouse model expressing middle T antigen in a mammary gland-specific manner (MMTV<SUP>Tg/+</SUP>Ahnak<SUP>−/−</SUP>), which showed significantly progressed hyperplasia of mammary glands compared with MMTV<SUP>Tg/+</SUP>Ahnak<SUP>+/+</SUP>. Finally, we screened multiple human breast cancer tissues and showed that the expression of Ahnak in cancer tissues is lower than that in control tissues by 50%. Taken together, these data indicate that Ahnak mediates a negative regulation of cell growth and acts as novel tumor suppressor through potentiation of TGFβ signaling.

Structural insights into conserved l-arabinose metabolic enzymes reveal the substrate binding site of a thermophilic l-arabinose isomerase

Lee, Y.J.,Lee, S.J.,Kim, S.B.,Lee, S.J.,Lee, S.H.,Lee, D.W. North-Holland Pub ; Elsevier Science Ltd 2014 FEBS letters Vol.588 No.6

Structural genomics demonstrates that despite low levels of structural similarity of proteins comprising a metabolic pathway, their substrate binding regions are likely to be conserved. Herein based on the 3D-structures of the α/β-fold proteins involved in the ara operon, we attempted to predict the substrate binding residues of thermophilic Geobacillus stearothermophilusl-arabinose isomerase (GSAI) with no 3D-structure available. Comparison of the structures of l-arabinose catabolic enzymes revealed a conserved feature to form the substrate-binding modules, which can be extended to predict the substrate binding site of GSAI (i.e., D195, E261 and E333). Moreover, these data implicated that proteins in the l-arabinose metabolic pathway might retain their substrate binding niches as the modular structure through conserved molecular evolution even with totally different structural scaffolds.
