The present study aimed to identify the roles of the storage mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Tp) in relation to human skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis. We examined the effects of T. putrescentiae extracts (TpE) on the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and their mRNA expression in human immune cells. Human monocytic THP-1 and eosinophilic EoL-1 cells were challenged with TpE and the inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) secreted in culture supernatant were analyzed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mRNA levels in the cell cultures were also measured via reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). In the THP-1 cells, the TpE significantly induced the secretion of IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 in a time- and dose-dependent manner. It also stimulated increases in the expression levels of the IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 mRNA. However, while the TpE induced IL-8 and MCP-1 mRNA levels in the EoL-1 cells, it did not induce IL-6 expression. Using Western blot analysis, we confirmed the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), in response to TpE challenge of the THP-1 cells. Collectively, our results show that TpE challenge elicits inflammatory response in the human monocytic THP-1 and eosinophilic EoL-1 cells, and it induces increased production of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1.

The purposes of this study were to analyze the farmer education programs in Korea, and to get implications for further program development. The framework for the analysis was developed through extensive literature review and an inductive method. As a result, eight types of organizations for farmer education, seventeen content domains of programs, five instructional methods, three categories of program participant size, and three categories of program period were derived. The subjects of analysis were 2,483 programs of 173 farmer education organizations. The major findings were as follows: 1) Farmer education programs of Korea were led by government agencies such as national organizations and extension agencies. 2) The content domains of cultivating/raising techniques, improvement of life quality and farmer health care, and information acquisition were relatively highly dealt with. 3) Main contents which were dealt with by each type of farmer education organization were differentiated. 4) In terms of instructional method, a lecture had the highest portion in most contents domains. 5) The portion of the middle size and large size of participants was relatively higher than others. And there are no programs which used one by one teaching method. 6) The portion of programs for 1 day or 3days was relatively higher, and the portion of programs for 2 days was lower.

The objective of this study was to propose the best methodology for estimating soil organic carbon stocks during environmental assessment for development projects. We compared three methodologies which were developed by Korea Environment Corporation(2010), Korea Forest Research Institute (2006), and Jin-Hyun Jung (1998). We found that the methodology developed by Jin-Hyun Jung (1998) shows the worst performance and the methodology of Korea Forest Research Institute (2006) does not reflect a variety of soil types and land use characteristics shown in development project plans. Therefore, we propose that the methodology developed by Korea Environment Corporation (2010) is the most reasonable one because it is internationally accepted and used for local governments to make the inventory of greenhouse gases as well as to set up its reduction strategy.

Objectives : Using 3-stimulus auditory "oddball" paradigm reflecting fronto/central and temporo/parietal functions Simultaneously, we examined patients with schizophrenia. Methods : fifteen patients with schizophrenia from outpatient clinic and fifteen normal controls from hospital staffs were recruited for the study. To elicit P3a and P3b, 3-stimulus auditory oddball paradigm was employed. The 3-stimulus auditory oddball paradigm was composed of standard tone (1,000 Hz, 75 dB, 80%), target tone (2,000 Hz, 75 dB, 10%) and distracter (White noise, 95 dB, 10%). Results : P3a and P3b were prominent in fronto/central and temporo/parietal areas, respectively, in both schizophrenics and normal controls. The P300 amplitude in patients with schizophrenia was reduced across P3a and P3b (p<0.01). The P300latency in patients with schizophrenia was delayed across P3a and P3b (p<0.01). Conclusion : These results were consistent with frontal and temporo-parietal lobe dysfunctions in schizophrenics. The 3-stimulus auditory paradigm could be applied for patients with schizophrenia and useful for further exploration the disorder.

페렴구균에 의한 대동맥염은 국내에서 1예만 보고될 정도로 매우 드문 감염증이다. 저자들은 원발성의 폐렴구균혈증에 합병된 페렴구균 대동맥염 환자 1례를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. Bacterial aortitis is rare and without surgical intervention, it usually leads to uncontrolled sepsis or catastrophic hemorrhage, ultimately, resulting in death. In the postantibiotic era, the dominant infecting organisms are Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella spp.. In spite of frequent pneumococcal bacteremia, vascular seeding is rare and there is only one published report in Korea. We describe a 77-year-old female with primary pneumococcal bacteremia followed by aortitis of the descending aorta, which was successfully treated by aneurysmectomy, wide excision of periaortic tissue, aortobiiliac bypass via prosthetic graft, and antibiotic therapy.

x??0.51인 Ga_xIn_(1-x)P 에피층을 저압 MOCVD 성장법으로 TEGa(triethylgallium), TMIn(trimethylindium) 등의 MO(metalorganic) 원료와 PH_3(phosphine)를 사용하여 GaAs(100) 기판 위에 성장하였다. 성장조건에 의한 표면 morphology, 결정결함, 성분비, PL spectra, 운반자 농도와 이동도 및 DLTS spectra와 같은 성장층의 특성을 관찰하였다. 650℃의 성장온도와 V/Ⅲ 비, 즉 TEGa와 TMIn 두 원료의 유량에 대한 PH_3의 유량비가 160∼220일 때 가장 좋은 성장표면을 나타내었다. 성장률은 PH_3의 유량변화에 아무런 영향을 받지 않음을 알 수 있었다. Ga_0.51In_0.49P 에피층과 기판의 격자상수 차에 의한 격자 부정합 Δa_⊥/a_0은 약 (3.7∼8.9)×10 exp (-4)이었으며 실온과 5K에서 에피층의 PL 피크 에너지는 각각 1.85 eV와 1.9 eV였다. 성장층의 운반자 농도와 이동도는 V/Ⅲ 비에 따라 달라지는데 그 비가 120에서 220으로 증가함에 따라 농도는 1.8×10 exp (16) ㎝^-3에서 8.2×10 exp (16) ㎝^-3로 증가하였고 이동도는 1010 ㎝/V·sec에서 366 ㎝/V·sec로 감소하였다. Epitaxial layers of Ga_xIn_(1-x)P with x??0.51 were grown on the GaAs substrates oriented 2℃ off (100) toward <110> by low pressure MOCVD growth technique using triethylgallium (TEGa), trimethylindium (TMIn) and phosphine (PH_3). Surface morphology, crystal defects, composition, photoluminescence spectra, carrier concentration and DLTS spectra of the grown layers were investigated. Good quality epilayers with featureless surface were obtained at growth temperature of 650℃ and V/Ⅲ ratio, i.e., PH_3 flow rate divided by the sum of TEGa and TMIn flow rates, of 160 to 220. The growth rate turned out to have no dependence on phosphine flow rate. The lattice mismatchs Δa_⊥/a_0 between grown Ga_0.51In_0.49P epilayer and GaAs substrate were (3.7∼8.9)×10 exp (-4) and the PL peak energies of the epitaxial layer at room temperature and 5K were 1.85 eV and 1.9 eV, respectively. With increasing V/Ⅲ ratio i.e., phosphine flow rate, from 120 to 220, the carrier density and mobility of undoped epitaxial layers increased from 1.8×10 exp (16) to 8.2×10 exp (16) ㎝^-3 and decreased from 1010 to 366 ㎝/V·sec, respectively.
