Burns are one of the most devastating forms of trauma and wound healing is a complex and multicellular process, which is executed and regulated by signaling networks involving numerous growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines. Recombinant human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) was specifically produced from rice cell culture through use of a recombinant technique in our laboratory. The effect of rhGM-CSF on promotion of deep second-degree burn wound healing on the back skin of a hamster model was evaluated through a randomized and double-blind trial. As macroscopic results, hamster skins of the experimental groups showed earlier recovery by new epidermis than the control groups. Immunohistochemical reactions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and transforming growth factor-b1, which are indicators of cell proliferation, were more active in the experimental group, compared with the control group. On electron microscopy, basal cells in the epidermis of the experimental group showed oval nuclei, prominent nucleoli, numerous mitochondria and abundant free ribosomes. In addition, fibroblasts contained well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum with dilated cisternae. Bundles of collagen fibrils filled the extracellular spaces. Particularly, ultrastructural features indicating active metabolism for regeneration of injured skin at 15 days after burn injury, including abundant euchromatin, plentiful free ribosomes, and numerous mitochondria, were observed. These findings suggest that use of rhGM-CSF could result in accelerated deep second-degree burn wound healing in animal models.

상처치유는 growth factor와 cytokine들의 복합적인 작용에 의해 일어나는 과정이다. GM-CSF는 호중구와 대식세포를 분화시키고 각질세포를 증식시키는 다면발현성 사이토카인으로 여러 세포에서 재조합되어 사용되고 있다. (주)핸슨바이오텍에서 개발한 rice cell 유래의 재조합 rrhGM-CSF는 다른 세포에서 유래된 GM-CSF들보다 탄수화물 측쇄가 많은 것이 특징이다. rrhGM-CSF의 창상치유효과를 알아보기 위하여 햄스터에 만성 당뇨를 유도하여 상처치유가 어려운 동물모델을 만든 후, 등쪽에 인위적으로 피부 전 층을 제거하여 창상을 유발하였다. 실험군에는 rrhGM-CSF가 포함된 연고를 적용하고, 대조군에는 base cream만을 적용하여 재상피화되는 과정과 피부조직의 구조 및 PCNA 반응을 통한 세포증식 정도를 비교하였다. 육안 및 조직학적 관찰 결과, rrhGM-CSF를 적용한 그룹의 재상피화 속도가 더 빨랐으며, PCNA 면역조직화학적 조사에서도 증식하는 각질세포의 수가 대조군보다 상대적으로 많은 것으로 나타남으로써, rrhGM-CSF에 의한 피부상처 치유 효과를 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들로 미루어 보아 벼세포 유래의 rrhGM-CSF는 국소적인 피부 창상 치유에 효과적인 것으로 보이며, rrhGM-CSF의 풍부한 당화 사슬은 이 단백질이 상처부위에 안정된 상태로 기능을 나타냄으로써 효과를 오랫동안 지속시킬 수 있었던 것으로 사료된다. GM-CSF is a multipotent growth factor, which also plays an important role during the process of wound healing. rrhGM-CSF was specifically produced from rice cell culture in our laboratory (Hanson Biotech Co., Ltd, Daejeon). The rrhGMCSF contains more oligosaccharide side chains than any other types of GM-CSF. This work was taken to evaluate the influence on wound healing of rrhGM-CSF in male golden hamsters. Full thickness skin defects of 9 mm in diameter were made in the back of hamsters, and 100 ${\mu}L$ ointment containing rrhGM-CSF 50 ${\mu}g/mL$ was applied. Control groups were given ointment without rrhGM-CSF. The wound sizes were relatively reduced and skin was well regenerated in the experimental group compared with the control group. Structurally, reepithelialization and architecture of the skin following injury were well accomplished in the experimental group. And also, positive reaction of PCNA of the skin following injury was more prominent in rrhGM-CSF containing ointment treatment group. Since this type of GM-CSF has highly glycosylated side chains, the effectiveness might be retain longer and stable, regarding acceleration of wound healing in the animal model. The present study has important implications for further development of the therapeutic manipulation of wound healing using rrhGM-CSF.

Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)는 과립구 및 대식세포뿐만 아니라 상피세포의 증식과 분화를 자극하는 당단백질이며, 최근 생산된 벼세포 유래 재조합 GMCSF(rrhGM-CSF)는 감염원으로부터 안전하고 당사슬이 매우 풍부하여 물질의 안정성 혹은 효과의 지속성을 높여 주는 것으로 알려졌다. 본 실험에서는 간 재생 능력이 우수한 흰쥐를 실험모델로 하여 간의 78%를 제거한 후, 간 재생을 유도하는 과정에서 rrhGM-CSF를 처리하고, 시간 경과에 따라 형태변화의 차이와 더불어 단백질 발현 분석법과 면역조직화학법을 이용하여 PCNA 발현에 미치는 효과에 대해서 알아보고자 하였다. rrhGMCSF는 간 재생 속도를 뚜렷이 증가시키지는 못하였으나, 대조군에 비해 실험군에서는 재생 초기에 간 세포판의 붕괴와 재구성 시기를 다소 앞당기는 것으로 관찰되었다. 증식 중인 세포에서 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있는 핵단백질인 proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)의 간 조직에서의 분포와 발현 정도를 보면 부분간절제 후 12시간과 24시간에서는 PCNA 단백질이 두 그룹에서 조금씩 발현되다가 간 절제 3일과 5일이 경과한 실험군에서 단백질이 높게 발현되었다. 간 재생이 진행될수록 간 조직 전체에서 고르게 PCNA 양성반응이 나타났으며, 대조군 보다 실험군에서 반응성이 더 뚜렷한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들로 보아 부분 간절제 후 간 재생을 유도하는 과정에서 rrhGM-CSF가 세포분열을 촉진시키는 인자들 중의 하나로 작용하여 간 재생에 효과를 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. Liver regeneration is a result of highly coordinated proliferation of hepatocytes and nonparenchymal liver cells. Partial hepatectomy (PH) is the most often used stimulus to study liver regeneration because, compared with other methods that use hepatic toxins, it is not associated with the tissue injury and inflammation, and the initiation of the regenerative stimulus is precisely defined. Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), which is a cytokine able to regulate the proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells, was first identified as the most potent mitogen for bone marrow. Particularly, rrhGM-CSF, which is highly glycosylated and sustained longer than any other types of GM-CSF in the blood circulation, was specifically produced from rice cell culture. In this experiment, effects of rrhGM-CSF administration were evaluated in the regenerating liver after 78% PH of rats. Morphological changes induced by PH were characterized by destroyed hepatocyte plate around the central vein and enlarged nuclear cytoplasmic ratio and increased hepatocytes with two nuclei. And then, proliferation of liver cells (parenchymal and nonparenchymal) and rearrangement of plates and lobules seemed to be carried out during liver regeneration. These alterations in the experimental group preceded those of the control. Since proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is known to be a nuclear protein maximally elevated in the S phase of proliferating cells, the protein was used as a marker of liver regeneration after PH in rats. PCNA levels by western blot analysis and immunohistology were compared between the two groups. PCNA protein expression of two groups at 12 hr and 24 hr after injury showed similar pattern. The protein expression showed the peak at 3 days in both groups, however, the protein level of the experimental group was higher than that of the control. On immunohistochemical observations, the reaction product of PCNA was localized at the nuclei of proliferating cells and the positive reaction in experimental group at 3 days was clearly stronger than that in control group. The results by Western blotting and immunohistology for PCNA showed similar pattern in terms of the protein levels. In conclusion, rrhGM-CSF administration during liver regeneration after 78% PH accelerated breakdown and restoration of the hepatic plate and expression of PCNA. These results suggest that rrhGM-CSF might play an important role during liver regeneration in rats.

Because Impinging jet has excellent heat & mass transfer characteristics. it has many advantages of cooling. drying. etc and widely applied at industrial fields. Therefore, there have been many experimental investigations and theoretical studies about Impinging jet. The present study is about a cooling characteristic by Impinging jet for a Square Plate on Duct and investigated this characteristic through three-dimensions numerical analysis, using FLUENT. As the result of this study, heat transfer effect is the most appropriate condition when the ratio of distance is 6 between nozzle exit diameter and heat source. diameter of duct is 90mm and height of duct is 60mm. In addition. under the influence of injected jet. stagnant fluid flow into free jet field and this affected the whole flow field. So the shape of duct is a important factor and the researcher confirmed the need of investigation about duct.
