심박변이율의 감소는 심근 경색 환자에서 예후의 악화와 관련되어 있다. 심박변이율 중 very low frequency가 심부전환자의 예후를 판단할 수 있는 독립적 인자로서 사용이 가능하다고 보고된 바 있으며, 심실의 압력 증가에 반응해서 생성되는 B-type natriuretic peptide가 심근 경색의 예후 인자로서 사용할 수 있음 역시 보고된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 심근경색 모델을 제작하여 일정의 회복 기간을 거친 다음 다시 일정 기간의 스트레스를 겪게 한 후 심박변이율의 변화 및 심실 조직에서의 BNP 발현 정도를 비교하여 스트레스에 의한 영향을 관찰하고자 하였다. Sprague-Dawley계 수컷 흰쥐 15마리를 대상으로 하였다. 실험동물은 인위적 스트레스 및 수술을 받지 않은 대조군(CON, n=5), 심근경색 수술을 받은 후 restraint stress를 받지 않은 군(MI+No Stress, n=5), 심근경색 수술을 받은 후 1주일 동안 restraint stress를 받은 군(MI+Stress, n=5)으로 분류하였다. 심근경색 모델 제작 직후 15분 이상 심전도의 변화를 기록하였으며, 2개월 정도 후 심근경색 수술을 받은 동물을 두 군으로 나누어 그 중 한 군에는 1주일 동안 restraint stress를 가한 후 restraint stress를 가하지 않은 동물과 심박변이율을 비교 분석하였다. 심실 조직은 좌심실 전벽 부위의 위축을 관찰할 수 있었고, 대식세포에 의하여 응고, 괴사된 심근세포의 탐식과 혈관이 풍부한 육아조직 및 섬유 변화를 볼 수 있었다. 심박변이율은 심근경색 수술을 받은 직후 심박수는 유의한 증가를 보였고, standard deviation of the normal to normal intervals (SDNN), very low frequency (VLF) 및 low frequency (LF)의 유의한 감소를 보였다. 심근경색 수술을 받았던 동물에서 두 달 정도의 회복 기간을 거친 후 스트레스를 받지 않은 군은 심박수 및 기타 심박변이율 분석에서 SDNN 값을 제외하고는 정상군과 유의한 차이를 관찰할 수 없었던 반면 1주일 동안 스트레스를 받은 군에서는 심박수가 다시 유의하게 증가했을 뿐만 아니라 SDNN, VLF 및 LF 역시 정상군과 유의한 차이를 보였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면 심근경색 동물에 대해 1주일 동안 스트레스를 가한 결과 심박변이율이 감소하고 심실에서의 BNP 발현은 더욱 증가하여 악화함을 보여주고 있다. Diminished heart rate variability (HRV) is associated with less favorable prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI). It has been reported that very low frequency (VLF) power in HRV analysis is an independent risk predictor in patients with congestive heart failure and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) can be used as a prognostic factor of MI. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether stress has an effect to the changes of BNP expression and/or heart rate variability in MI model in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups: control group (CON), MI group (MI+No Stress), and MI followed by stress group (MI+Stress). MI+Stress group rats were raised for a two month recovery period after the operation, followed by being exposed to restraint stress for 2 hours per day for 1 week. Electrocardiogram was recorded after the operation and the last day after 1 week of stress. The frequency components of HRV were calculated in the frequency domain such as VLF, low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF) and so on. In HRV analysis, standard deviation of the normal to normal intervals (SDNN) was significantly reduced in both groups compared to the control group. VLF and LF also were significantly reduced in MI+Stress group compared to the control groups. In addition, BNP expression in western blotting was shown the strongest bands in MI+ Stress group among experimental groups. These results suggest that BNP and HRV were aggravated by stress in MI rat model. (Korean J Str Res 2010;18:275∼285)

Histone deacetylase 3 is selectively involved in L3MBTL2-mediated transcriptional repression

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>This is the first report that L(3)mbt-like 2 (L3MBTL2) specifically interacts with the histone deacetylase domain of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) via its MBT domain. Here, we show that L3MBTL2 selectively interacts with HDAC3, but not other class I HDACs. An in vitro peptide-binding assay demonstrated the specific association of HDAC3 with methylated histone-K20 tail and L3MBTL2. Furthermore, depletion of HDAC3 resulted in a decrease of methylated K20-H4, as well as an increase in acetylated histone H3. Consequently, HDAC3 knock-down selectively suppressed L3MBTL2-mediated transcriptional repression. Taken together, our results reveal the concerted action of both HDAC3 and L3MBTL2 in histone deacetylation and methylation-dependent transcriptional repression.</P><P><B>Structured summary</B></P><P>MINT-7719975: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) and <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>colocalize</I> (MI:0403) by <I>fluorescence microscopy</I> (MI:0416)</P><P>MINT-7719941, MINT-7719921: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) <I>binds</I> (MI:0407) to <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) by <I>pull down</I> (MI:0096)</P><P>MINT-7719991: <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) by <I>anti bait coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0006)</P><P>MINT-7719958: <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) by <I>anti tag coimmunoprecipitation</I> (MI:0007)</P><P>MINT-7719897: <I>HDAC3</I> (uniprotkb:O15379) <I>physically interacts</I> (MI:0915) with <I>L3MBTL2</I> (uniprotkb:Q969R5) by <I>two hybrid</I> (MI:0018)</P>

Scopolamine and hyoscyamine which belong to tropane alkaloids are the pharmaceutically valuable anticholinergic drugs. In order to increase the productivities, the effects of elicitation were investigated during hairy root cultures of Scopolia parviflora. Biotic elicitors originated from 3 fungi and 1 yeast were prepared as homogenate and supernatant and added to 3-week-old cultures. Both of homogenate and supernatant of Candida albicans elicitors increased the scopolamine production. The production of hyoscyamine was enhanced by homogenate of Fusarium solani and supematant of C. albicans. Most of the other fungal elicitors were also improved on the tropane alkaloid production compared to non-treatment. Among the elicitors tested, C. albicans was proved the optimal biotic elicitor on tropane alkaloids production. These results will be served mass production of tropane alkaloids by large-scale production.

Kim Young-rang has been known as poet who commanded elaborated type, meter, soft tone harmony of voice. Manufacture do poetry which have self-regulating structure through conscious calculation and materialize own inside sensuously. And his interest about shi-jo and pansori is reflected in production of poetry. He creates four line poetry criticizing existent poetry style(shi-jo and pansori and so on)in poetry´s circles in the 1930s that form of free poetry catches seat already, and plays a variation four line poetry learning forms and groped new modernistic poetry form. He established peculiar sensitivity of individual into compensation of shape and create chard free verse of new form. These features that shows in poetry form that defend self from colony actual broken external order is revealed can be seen. It is because construct space of imagination and found psychological pupil of the eye in to close loss persimmon formed on inside looking away actuality that can not accomplish own dream. Therefore, that appears in his poetry sensual and the trillion brazier fortune worlds can see that is product of injustice mind to look away colony actuality. Kim Young-rang did not compromise in colony actuality and could keep own inside to be upright through writing such poetry.

Steroid cell tumor is a rare ovarian sex cord-stromal tumor which accounts for 0.1% of all ovarian tumors. Until now, only 4 cases have been reported in domestic literatures. Steroid cell tumor often secrets testosterone and presents virilization in adult women or precocious puberty in children. Treatment is often performed by surgical removal, adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation, but completely accepted treatment was not existed. We experienced a case of steroid cell tumor, which was manifested by typical virilization in a 43-year old patient, who was previously performed hysterectomy and unilateral oophorectomy. So, we present with a brief review of the literatures.

강성규,양정선,이미영,박인정,정호근 大韓産業醫學會 2000 대한직업환경의학회지 Vol.12 No.1

목 적 : 1980년대 후반부터 산업보건에서 혈중 및 요중 중금속농도 분석의 정확성 문제가 크게 부각되었다. 같은 시료를 가지고 분석기관마다 보이는 커다란 오차로 인해 직업병 진단 결과에 대한 신뢰성을 크게 감소시켰다. 이에, 노동부에서는 1992년부터 특수건강진단 기관에 대한 생체시료 분석정도관리 프로그램을 시작하였다. 본 연구는 1995년부터 시작된 생체시료 분석정도관리 5년간의 결과를 보고하고, 현재 생물학적모니터링으로 사용되는 항목과 빈도를 조사하고 이 항목의 정도관리 참여율을 비교하여 산업보건 관계 연구나 직업병 관리에 참고할 수 있도록 하기 위해 실시하였다. 방 법 : 생체시료 분석정도관리는 무기와 유기분석분야로 나누어 일년에 전후반기 2회 실시하고 있으며, 지정항목과 자율항목으로 구분하고 있다. 지정항목인 혈중 납과 요중 마뇨산은 분야별로 한 번에 3개 농도수준을 주어 2개 이상이 기준값의 ±15%내외의 범위에 들면 적합한 것으로 판정하고 있으며, 자율항목은 2개의 시료를 주어 2개 모두 기준실험실 평균값의 ±3SD 내외의 범위에 들면 적합한 것으로 판정하고 있다. 결 과 : 지정항목인 혈중 납과 요중 마뇨산 분석은 평균 적합률이 각각 89%, 90% 이었고, 대학기관, 비영리법인, 종합병원, 사업장 자체기관별로 차이는 없었으나 신규 기판의 적합률 70% 수준으로 상대적으로 낮았다. 자율항목의 적합률은 평균 50% 수준이었고, 저농도보다는 고농도의 적합률이 떨어졌다. 국내에서 가장 많이 분석되고 있는 항목은 요중 마뇨산과 혈중 납이었고, 혈중 및 요중 망간도 많이 분석되고 있었다. 요중 삼염화물, 페놀, 만델산, 카드윰, 메칠마뇨산, 크롬 등도 많이 분석되고 있는 항목이었다. 혈중 망간, 요중 수은, 요중 NMF는 정도관리에서 적합판정을 받은 기관의 숫자보다 실제 분석을 하고 있는 기관의 숫자가 많았다. 결 론 : 지난 5년간의 생체시료 분석정도관리 결과 우리나라 분석실험실의 분석능력은 향상되고 있으나, 자율항목에 대한 분석능력은 아직 미흡한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 아직 일부 일부 항목에 대해서는 외부 정도관리 없이 분석되고 있는 경우도 있었다. Objective : The accuracy of analytical results of blood and urine heavy metals came out to the main issue on occupational health from late eighties. The discrepancy of the results for same samples from different laboratories made the diagnosis for occupational diseases be unreliable. Therefore, a quality control program for analysis of samples taken from workplace had been introduced in Korea since 1992. This study aims to show the quality control program for analysis of blood and urine samples and its proficient rates from 1992 to 1999 and to know how they have been being used in occupational health. Methods The quality control program runs twice a year with mandatory items of blood lead and urine hippuric acid and voluntary items of blood cadmium and manganese and urine mandellic acid and methyl hippuric acid. Participant laboratories are receiving three levels for each items and two out of three samples have to be qualified for being a profi-cient laboratory for the item. The acceptable range of blood lead and urine hippuric acid is ± 15% and that of the others is within 3 SD (standard deviation) from the reference values. Results : The proficient rates of blood lead and urine hippuric acid was 89%, 90%, repectively, however those of the other voluntary items have been from 51% to 62%. The proficient rates of urine mercury and urine N-methylformamide (NMF), which are introduced since 1999, were very poor. Urine hippuric acid and blood lead were analyzed frequently for the purpose of biological monitoring conducting by special health examination organizations. Urine and blood manganese and urine metabolites of trichloroethylene, urine phenol, methylhippuric acid and cadmium were followed. Conclusions : In conclusion, the quality control program for biological monitoring has dramatically improve the ability of analysing blood and urine samples and eventually con-tributes to diagnose occupational diseases and to prevent occupational poisoning. However, some biological monitoring data, such as urine manganese, mercury and NMF, have been still reported from laboratories that were not accepted as a proficient laboratory.

대농갱이는 동자개과의 담수어로 고부가가치를 창출 할 수 있는 새로운 담수 양식 대상종으로 주목받고 있으나 현재까지 성장도 등 양식에 대한 기초정보가 밝혀지지 않았으며, 본 연구에서는 인공으로 생산한 자 ? 치어를 사육하면서 암 ? 수의 성장 차이를 비교 ? 조사하였다. 암수의 정확한 성장 차이를 구명하기 위해 본 실험은 자어 초기 조직검사에 의한 조사와 치어기부터 표지법에 의한 조사로 구분하여 실시하였다. 조직학적 판별에 의한 암수간 성장비교 시험 결과 부화 후 50일까지는 수컷과 암컷의 성장차이는 없는 것으로 나타났으나, 부화 80일 후에는 수컷(체장 72.0±6.7㎜, 체중 3.71±6.7g이 암컷(체장 64.3±6.7㎜, 체중 3.71±0.99g)보다 성장이 빠른 것으로 나타나 대농갱이는 부화 후 50일에서 80일 사이에 암 ? 수의 성장차이가 시작되는 것으로 사료되었다. 부화 80일 이후 조사는 표지법이 개체 성장에 미치는 영향을 조사한 후 본 실험에 착수하였으며 표지구는 대조구와 사이에 유으적인 성장의 차이를 보이지 않았다. 개체간 성장차이는 조직학적 판별 결과와 동일한 경향으로 수컷이 암컷보다 성장이 유의적으로 빨랐으며(P<0.05), 시험 종료 후 암컷과 수컷의 크기는 수컷이 평균 체장 17.57㎝, 체중 52.19g으로 암컷의 평균 체장 11.02㎝, 체중 16.26g보다 체장은 약 1.5배, 체중은 약 3배이상 큰 것으로 나타났다(p=0.05). 체중으로 본 성장곡선은 지수성장을 보였으며, 수컷은 Y=0.0024X^(1.738)(R^(2)=0.985), 암컷은 Y=0.0405X^(1.0316)(R^(2)=0.983)의 지수식에 밀접하게 수렵되었고 성장의 차이는 사육기간이 길어질수록 크게 나타났다. The Ussurien bullhead, Leiocassis ussuriensis, of the family Bagridae has recently been targeted for freshwater culture in Korea. In this paper we investigated sexual dimorphism in body size in rearing condition using specimens produced artificially. Tissue sections of gonads were made between 20 and 80 days after hatching to identify sex of the specimens investigated. A difference in body size between sexes was not observed in fry until they were 50 days old. Male fry 80 days old had attained 81.62f7.21 ㎜ total length, and females 72.84±8.62 ㎜ total length. After 80 days the difference in body size was analysed by tagging. Applying the tag by cutting fin tips had no affect on the growth of the fishes (P< 0.05). The growth in body size of males was significantly faster (P< 0.05) than in females, and males attained about 1.5 times more in standard length and about 3 times more in body weight than females at the end of 320 days. The growth curve of body weight was exponential and the body weight was expressed by Y = 0.0024X^(1.738) (R² = 0.985) and Y = 0.0405X^(1.0316)(R² = 0.983) in male and female, respectively, observed at monthly intervals.
