Hydroxyapatite powders were syntehsized by the reaction of Ca(NO3)2.4H2O and (NH4)2HPO4 in aqueous solution. The effect of the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution on the sintering of the powders and its microstructure was studied. When the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution was 1.69, the relative density of the sintered bodies was more than 95%. The sinterability was decreased as the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution was increased (Ca/P mole ratio >1.67). Hydroxyapatite sintered bodies obtained from the Ca/P mole ratio=1.69 had very excellent bending strength. The best bending strength was obtained at 110$0^{\circ}C$ and its value was 1220kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The average grain size was 0.277${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Most of sintered bodies were almost shown 100% hydroxyapatite phase. However, in case of the Ca/P mole ratio=1.64 hydroxyapatite was decomposed to $\alpha$-whitlockite above 120$0^{\circ}C$.

In order to accelerate the sintering of Al-Bronze powder covered with passive oxide film, we focused on the way to add Al-Ca fluoride consisting of $AlF_3$ and $CaF_2$, examined the effect of the $CaF_2$ mixing rate in Al-Ca fluoride, the amount of the added Al-Ca fluoride and the sintering temperature on sintering properties of Al-Bronze powder and considered the mechanism of the sintering acceleration. Al-Bronze powder was sintered most effectively by adding Al-Ca fluoride with the $CaF_2$ mixing rate of 20mass%. If the amount of added fluoride was over 0.05mass% and the sintering temperature was over 1123K, the sintering acceleration of the Al-Bronze powder appears. Regarding the mechanism of the sintering acceleration, it was presumed that $Al_2O_3$ film on the surface of the Al-Bronze particles was removed in the process of the formation of gaseous AlOF by the reaction with $AlF_3$, and the reaction was accelerated further by the presence of the liquid phase which is formed in Al-Ca fluoride.

Using BHK cells with stable expression of cardiac $Na^+/Ca^{2+}$ exchanger(BHK-NCX1), reverse mode(i.e. $Ca^{2+}$ influx mode) of NCX1 current was recorded by whole-cell patch clamp. Repeated stimulation of reverse NCX1 produced a cytosolic $Ca^{2+}$-dependent long-term inactivation of the exchanger activity. The degrees of inactivation correlated with NCX1 densities of the cells and were attenuated by reduced $Ca^{2+}$ influx via the reverse exchanger. The inactivation of NCX1 was attenuated by(i) inhibition of $Ca^{2+}$ influx with reduced extracellular $Ca^{2+}$, (ii) treatment with NCX1 blocker($Na^{2+}$), and (iii) increase of cytoplasmic $Ca^{2+}$ buffer(EGTA). In BHK-NCX1 cells transiently expressing TRPV1 channels, $Ca^{2+}$ influx elicited by capsaicin produced a marked inactivation of NCX1. We suggest that cytoplasmic $Ca^{2+}$ has a dual effect on NCX1 activities, and that allosteric $Ca^{2+}$ activation of NCX1 can be opposed by the $Ca^{2+}$-dependent long-term inactivation in intact cells.

Endothelins secreted from keratinocytes are intrinsic madiators for human melanocytes in UVB-induced pigmentation. Antimelanogenic ingredient, 1,2-Ο-diferulylglycerol(SM709) isolated from bamboo extract inhibited the melanin synthesis of Bl6F10 melanoma cells by 62%. To understand the cellular mechanism of antimelanogenic activity of SM709 in human melanocytes, the effects of SM709 on the ET-l-induced $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization were investigated. ET-l receptors in human melanocytes were characterized by using specific antagonist and found that ET-l increased intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ by activating ET-B receptor. SM709 completely blocked the ET-l-induced intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ increase and its inhibitory effect showed dose- and time- dependent manners. To investigate the role of SM709 on intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ store, when the $Ca^{2+}$ store was partially depleted by thapsigargin; a specific inhibitor of ER-type $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase, caffeine-induced $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization did not changed in the presence or absence of SM709, suggesting that SM709 has no effect on the $Ca^{2+}$ store. It is known that LPA receptor and P$_2$ receptor are linked to InsP$_3$ second messenger system. When these receptors in melanocytes were activated by LPA and ATP, the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ signaling was observed even in the presence of SM709. From the above results, it can be suggested that SM709 has an antimelanogenic activity by antagonizing the ET-B receptor, resulting in subsequent intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ signaling, in UV induced pigmentation.nduced pigmentation.

[ $CaNi_5$ ] 수소저장합금의 전기화학적 충$\cdot$방전 특성에 미치는 MG(mechanical grinding) 영향이 Ar및 $H_2$ 가스분위기에서 조사되었다 MG공정중 $CaNi_5$ 합금은 표면 산화층의 파괴와 재생성 및 산화층 근방의 불균질화로 인하여 MG 15시간 이후부터 CaO와 Ni로 뚜렷한 상분리가 일어났다. $MG-CaNi_5$는 MG시간이 길어질수록 초기의 전기화학적 방전용량은 현저히 감소하였지만 충$\cdot$방전 싸이클의 증가에 따른 용량저하 속도는 $CaNi_5$합금에 비하여 낮았다. MG처리된 $CaNi_5$합금의 퇴화는 MG공정중의 상분리 및 불규칙화에 의한 수소의 가역반응 site의 감소 및 분극저항의 증가, KOH 전해질 내에서 합금 표면의 산화반응에 의한 부동태 피막형성에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다.

$PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 용혈 및 적혈구막 절편에서 $Ca^{++}$ 결합에 미치는 영향을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$는 $PGE_2$와 같이 적혈구막 삼투성 취약성을 증가시키는데 대조군에서는 NaCl농도 1/18 M 용액에서 완전히 용혈되었으나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ 가 $10^{11}M$ 이상 포함될 경우 NaCl농도 $1/16{\sim}1/17\;M$ 에서 100 % 용혈이 일어났다. 2) 동일한 적혈구 부유액을 사용할 때 NaCl농도 1/15 M 용액에서 대조군은 $44.2{\pm}4.3%$가 용혈되나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 $10^{11}M$농도로 포함되었을 때 용혈은 각기 $73.6{\pm}8.4%$ 및 $68.7{\pm}6.4%$로 대조군에 비하여 의의있게 증가하였으며 그 이상의 농도에서는 더 이상 증가를 보이지 않았다. 3) $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$에 의해 증가된 용혈은 어느 $Ca^{++}$농도에서도 대조군보다 항상 일정한 정도로 증가되어 있다. 4) 적혈구막 절편에서의 $Ca^{++}$결합은 대조군이나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$처치군 모두 incubation용액내 $Ca^{++}$농도가 증가함에 따라 곡선적으로 증가하여 $Ca^{++}$농도 5 mM에서 포화된다. 그러나 같은 농도의 $Ca^{++}$에서 비교할 때 적혈구막의 $Ca^{++}$결합은 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ 존재시 대조군에 비하여 의의있게 증가되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 적혈구막의 삼투성 취약성을 증가시키는 기전은 $Ca^{++}$과는 독립적으로 작용함을 알 수 있다.

We studied the effect of eicosanoids on the content of energy metabolites and the intrasynaptosomal $Ca^{++}([Ca^{++}]_i)$ concentration in cerebral ischemic rats. An ischemic model was made by bilateral carotid artery ligation (BCAL) and by incubation of synaptosomes under aglycemic and $N_2$ gas bubbling condition. The content of ATP, creatine phosphate and glucose decreased at 15 minutes after BCAL while that of lactate increased in male Wistar rats. Oral administration of EPA(100 mg/ml/Kg/day) or DHA(16 mg/ml/Kg/day) for 6 weeks improved both the decreases and the increase of the cerebral energy metabolites. In addition, the increase of $[Ca^{++}]_i$, under BACL was suppressed by EPA or DHA treatment. When the both Wistar rats and SHR were administered orally with EPA or DHA for 6 weeks, the effect on the increase of $[Ca^{++}]_i$ under ischemia by $N_2$ gas bubbling were protected. From these results, it may be that EPA or DHA treatment were greatly contributed to preservation of ischemic cerebral energy metabolism and $Ca^{++}$ concentration.

본 실험은 고온기 파프리카 재배에서 CaCl₂ 엽면 살포에 의한 배꼽썩음과 발생과 경감 효과를 알아보고자 과실 크기에 따른 살포 시기, 횟수 및 시간에 미치는 영향을 구명하였다. CaCl₂(Ca 0.4%) 엽면 살포는 6월 3일 부터 7월 1일 까지 방아다리 위 4-9 마디의 착과 과실과 잎에 식물체 1주당 350mL/회를 처리하였다. CaCl₂를 7일 간격으로 4주간 엽면 살포 후 수확한 파프리카의 Ca 함량은 배꼽썩음과 과실의 과폭 11-20mm 처리에서 가장 낮았고, pedicel > stem-end > middle, blossom-end 순으로 낮아졌다. 정상과 과실의 Ca 함량은 과폭 31-40mm 처리에서 뚜렷하게 증가하였고 배꼽썩음과와 비교할 때 78% 높았다. 과폭 21mm 이상의 과실 middle과 blossom-end 부위 Ca 함량은 정상과에서는 19.8%-28.8%였으며, 배꼽썩음과에서는 15.7%-18.5%였다. 과폭 31-40mm 처리에서 배꼽썩음과 발생율은 60% 이상으로 급격히 증가하였다. 과폭 크기별 엽면 살포 처리에 따른 파프리카 과중은 차이가 없었으며, 상품과율은 21-30mm 크기에서 가장 높았고, 당도는 과폭 11-30mm 처리에서 높았다. 과폭 21-30mm 파프리카에 7일 동안CaCl₂를 3회 엽면 살포하였을 때 세포벽 결합(cell wall-bound, CWB) Ca 함량은 가장 높았고, 배꼽썩음과 발생율은 6.3%로 가장 낮았다. CaCl₂ 엽면 살포 처리 10일 후 파프리카의 CWB Ca 함량은 대조구에 비해 모든 처리에서 2.9배-3.5배 증가하였다. 하루 중 1회 시간을 달리하여 CaCl₂ 엽면 살포하였을 때, 7일째 엽소현상이 오전 9시 30분 처리에서 부터 오후 17시 처리 까지 관찰되었고, proline 함량은 처리 시간이 늦어질수록 증가되었다. 따라서 파프리카 여름재배시 배꼽썩음과 발생 경감을 위한 CaCl₂ 엽면 살포 방법은 과폭 21-30mm인 시기에 3일 간격으로 2회-3회, 오전 8시 이전에 살포 하는 것이 적합하리라 본다.

The effect of CaO mold on the formation of reaction layer was investigated. CaO mold was prepared by mixing of Colloidal silica($NALCO^{(R)}$ 1130) and an $ZrO_2$, CaO at room temperature. The dried at $20{\pm}3^{\circ}C$, 75% humidity for 12hrs. Sample was prepared from the Cp-Ti(grade-2) and melted by high frequence induction melting system in the vacuum condition. The react ion layer of Ti was confirmed by optical microscopy, microhardness(Hv) and X-ray diffraction. Thickness of reaction layer using the CaO stabilized ZrO2 was thinner than the CaO added ZrO2. And thickness of reaction layer were decreased with decreasing pH of slurry. CaO addition in the slurry could not controlled reaction between molten Ti and investment mold. On the other hand, the CaO chemical bonded ZrO2 by stabilization treatment could controlled reaction between molten Ti and investment mold.

There seems to be some controversy about the effect of total ginseng saponin (TGS) on the secretion of catecholamines (CA) from the adrenal gland. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine whether TGS can affect the CA release in the perfused model of the adrenal medulla isolated from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). TGS (15-150 ${\mu}g/mL$), perfused into an adrenal vein for 90 min, inhibited the CA secretory responses evoked by acetylcholine (ACh, 5.32 mM) and high $K^+$ (56 mM, a direct membrane depolarizer) in a dose- and time-dependent fashion. TGS (50 ${\mu}g/mL$) also time-dependently inhibited the CA secretion evoked by 1.1-dimethyl-4 -phenyl piperazinium iodide (DMPP; 100 ${\mu}M$, a selective neuronal nicotinic receptor agonist) and McN-A-343 (100 ${\mu}M$, a selective muscarinic M1 receptor agonist). TGS itself did not affect basal CA secretion (data not shown). Also, in the presence of TGS (50 ${\mu}g/mL$), the secretory responses of CA evoked by veratridine (a selective $Na^+$ channel activator (50 ${\mu}M$), Bay-K-8644 (an L-type dihydropyridine $Ca^{2+}$ channel activator, 10 ${\mu}M$), and cyclopiazonic acid (a cytoplasmic $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase inhibitor, 10 ${\mu}M$) were significantly reduced, respectively. Interestingly, in the simultaneous presence of TGS (50 ${\mu}g/mL$) and N${\omega}$-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride [an inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, 30 ${\mu}M$], the inhibitory responses of TGS on the CA secretion evoked by ACh, high $K^+$, DMPP, McN-A-343, Bay-K-8644, cyclopiazonic acid, and veratridine were considerably recovered to the extent of the corresponding control secretion compared with the inhibitory effect of TGS-treatment alone. Practically, the level of NO released from adrenal medulla after the treatment of TGS (150 ${\mu}g/mL$) was greatly elevated compared to the corresponding basal released level. Taken together, these results demonstrate that TGS inhibits the CA secretory responses evoked by stimulation of cholinergic (both muscarinic and nicotinic) receptors as well as by direct membrane-depolarization from the isolated perfused adrenal medulla of the SHRs. It seems that this inhibitory effect of TGS is mediated by inhibiting both the influx of $Ca^{2+}$ and Na+ into the adrenomedullary chromaffin cells and also by suppressing the release of $Ca^{2+}$ from the cytoplasmic calcium store, at least partly through the increased NO production due to the activation of nitric oxide synthase, which is relevant to neuronal nicotinic receptor blockade, without the enhancement effect on the CA release. Based on these effects, it is also thought that there are some species differences in the adrenomedullary CA secretion between the rabbit and SHR.
