To characterize the features of particle apparent density, continuous measurements of particle number size distributions from optical particle sizer (OPS) and 24 hr integrated particle mass concentrations from filter based sampler were conducted at the National institute of environmental research NamBu Supersite (NNBS, $35.22^{\circ}N$, $126.84^{\circ}E$) in Gwangju for 16 days from Nov. 4 in 2014. Source apportionment model was carried out by applying Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) to particle size distribution data. Three different distributions related to primary and secondary sources were investigated by the diurnal patterns of identified factors. Density estimated by gaussian model has been calculated as $1.69g/cm^3$ with 95% confidence bounds ($1.57{\sim}1.81g/cm^3$).

This study is aimed to prepare the effective detail survey methods(Phase II) of abandoned metal mines through the contamination assessment for mine types and facilities in the abandoned metal mine areas. The study sites of 12 abandoned mines are located in Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do and those were chosen among 310 sites that the Phase II survey was conducted from 2007 to 2009 after considering the results of Phase I for abandoned mines scattered all over the country. 12 study sites were classified into four types; Type I sites only have pit mouth. Type II sites have pit mouth and mine-waste field. Type III sites have pit mouth and tailing sorting field. Type IV sites have pit mouth, tailing sorting field and concentrator(s). In forest land, paddy soil and farm land of Type I, As and Cd were showed average concentration, and Cu and Pb were high on the pit mouth area in one mines where the pit mouth was developed within 500 m. In the mines of Type II, Cu and Pb were showed average concentration too, but As and Cd were slightly high in pit mouth and mine-waste field. The mines of Type III which had grinding particle process through physical separation milling or hitting showed similar tendency with Type II. However, mines of Type IV pit mouth, mine-waste field and showed various results depending on defining the contamination sources. For example, if contamination source was pit mouth, the mixed results of Type I, II, II were showed. In tailing sorting field which was regarded as the most important source and having high mobility, however, if there were no facilities or it was difficult to access directly, field sampling was missed occasionally during phase I and phase II survey. For that reason, the assessment for tailing sorting field is missed and it leads to completely different results. In the areas of Type I mines, the concentration of heavy metals exceeded precautionary standards of soil contamination or not within 1,000 meters of pit mouth. Nickel(Ni) was the largest factor of the heavy metal contamination in this type. The heavy metals except Arsenic(As) were shown high levels of concentration in Type II areas, where pit mouth and mine-waste field were operated for making powder in upriver region; therefore, to the areas in the vicinity of midstream and downstream, the high content of heavy metals were shown. The tendency of high level of heavy metals and toxic materials contained in flotation agent used during sorting process were found in soil around sorting and tailing field. In the abandoned-pit-mouth area, drygrinding area and tailing sorting field area, the content of Cupper(Cu) and Zinc(Zn) were higher than other areas. Also, the contaminated area were larger than mine reclamation area(2,000 m) and the location of tailing sorting field was one of the important factors to estimate contaminated area.

여포와 난포의 성숙, 배란과 착상, 임신의 유지와 태아의 성장 발달, 분만 및 유선발육과 비유 등 일련의 생식현상에서 있어서 성선자극호르몬과 스테로이드 호르몬의 작용이 중추적인 역할을 한다는 사실은 오래 전부터 알려져왔다. 그러나 이러한 일련의 현상에 고전적인 호르몬 외에도 다수의 성장인자가 관여되고 있음이 최근의 연구 결과 밝혀지고 있다. 생식기관에서 성장인자들은 대부분 autocrine/paracrine mode로 작용하여, 성선자극호르몬과 스테로이드 호르몬의 작용을 매개하거나 이들 호르몬 등과 교호적인 작용(synergy)을 한다. 생식기관 내 insulin-like growth factor(IGF) system은 최근 가장 활발히 연구된 분야 중의 하나로 생식현상의 전반에 걸쳐 중요한 역할을 하고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 본 지면에서는 IGF system에 관한 개괄적인 정보를 소개하고 현재까지 보고된 intrauterine IGF system에 관한 연구를 요약하고자 한다. IGF family는 IGF-I과 IGF-II ligands, 두종류의 IGF receptors(수용체), 그리고 지금까지 발견된 6종류의 IGF-binding proteins(IGFBPs)로 이루어져 있다. IGF-I과 IGF-II는 proinsulin과 상동한 구조를 가진 peptide로서 포도당과 아미노산 운반을 자극하는 등 insulin과 유사한 작용을 한다. 이 외에도 IGFs는 세포분열촉진제(mitogens)로서 여러 형태의 세포에 걸쳐 세포증식을 자극하고, 세포의 분화(differentiation)과 세포기능의 발현에 관여한다. IGFs는 간과 주로 messenchymal cells에서 발현되어 endocrine mode는 물론 autocrine/paracrine mode로 거의 모든 조직에 작용한다. IGF 수용체는 두종류가 알려져 있는데 type I IGF receptor는 tyrosine kinase로서 IGF-I과 IGF-II에 공히 high-affinity를 나타내고, 상기한 대부분의 IGFs의 작용을 매개한다. Type II IGF receptor 혹은 IGF-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor는 두개의 서로 다른 binding sites를 가지고 있는데 IGF-II binding site는 IGF-II에만 high-affinity를 나타낸다. Type II IGF receptor의 주요 역할은 IGF-II를 lysosomal targeting하여 ligand를 파괴하는데 있다. 체액 속의 IGFs는 대부분 IGFBP에 결합되어 있다. IGFBPs는 IGF의 저장/운반체 혹은 IGF 작용을 조절하는 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 개개 IGFBP의 역할에 대해서는 지극히 제한된 정보만이 알려져 있다. IGFBPs의 IGF ligands에의 affinity는 IGF receptors의 IGFs에의 affinity보다 크기 때문에 대부분의 in vitro 상황 하에서 IGFBPs는 IGF 작용을 억제한다. IGFBP에 결합되어 있는 IGF가 어떤 기작에 의해 IGFBP로부터 분리되어 IGF receptor에 도달하는지는 알려지지 않고 있으나, 혈액과 조직액에 들어있는 불특정 IGFBP protease activity는 IGF의 방출과정에서 일역을 하는 것으로 믿어지고 있다. 최근 연구보고에 의하면 특정 in vitro 상황 하에서 IGFBP-1, -3, -5 등은 IGF와 무관한 작용도 있다는 증빙이 있어 IGF system의 또 다른 차원을 예고하고 있다. IGF family members의 mRNAs & proteins는 영장류, 설치류 및 가축의 자궁조직과 수태물(conceptus)에서 발현되어 자궁과 태아의 성장 발달에 중요한 역할을 한다. 자궁조직의 IGF system의 발현은 성선호르몬, 국소 생리조절인자 등에 의해 발현시기와 장소의 특이성이 결정되며, 발현된 IGFs와 IGFBPs는 autocrine/paracrine mode로 자궁조직에 작용하기도 하고, 자궁강에 분비되어 수태물의 성장 발달에 관여한다. 착상을 전후하여 수태물에서도 IGF system이 발현되는데 개개 IGF family member의 발현 시기는 모체로부터 유래된 mRNA의 유무, 수태물 자체의 genetic programming, 모체와의 상호작용 등에 의해 결정되고, IGFs의 작용 부위 역시 시간(생리적 상태)과 장소의 특이성이 있다. 이와같이 conceptus IGF system의 발현이 시간적, 공간적으로 조절되고있다는 사실은 IGFs가 수태물의 성장 발달에 일역을 한다는 가설을 간접적으로 지지해 준다. 자궁조직과 수태물에서 발현된 IGFs는 세포의 증식과 분화, 포도당과 아미노산의 운반과 단백질합성, placental lactogen과 prolactin 등과 같은 유선자극호르몬의 생성을 자극하고 스테로이드 호르몬의 합성에도 관여한다. 태아의 성장 발달에 있어서 IGFs의 역할은 embryo의 IGF-I, IGF-II, 혹은 IGF receptor gene을 homologous recombination technique에 의해 파괴(gene targeting)하여을 때의 결과로써 입증되었다. 생쥐의 IGF and/or IGF-II gene 혹은 IGF receptor gene을 파괴했을 때 출생 전후 모두 성장 발달이 지연되며 출생시 무게는 정상치의 30-60% 수준에 머물고, 특히 type I IGF receptor gene 혹은 IGF-I과 IGF-II genes를 모두 파괴했을 경우에는 출생 후 곧 치사한다. 자궁 내의 IGFBPs는 IGF ligands를 자궁 내에 제한시키거나 IGFs의 receptor binding을 억제하는 negative regulators 역할을 하는 것으로 믿어지고 있다. 그러나 영장류의 자궁에서 IGFBP-I과 같은 특정 IGFBP는 IGFs보다 월등히 많은 양이 발현 분비되고 있는 것으로 추산되고 있으며, 또한 이 단백질은 모체탈락막세포에서 분비되는 주요 단백질 중의 하나라는 점을 감안할 때 IGFBP-I이 IGF과 무관한 작용이 있을 가능성도 배제할 수 없다. 따라서 IGFBPs의 역할 규명은 IGF system을 이해하는데 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있어 향후 이 분야의 연구에 많은 기대와 촛점이 모여지고 있다.

Several studies have been done regarding carcass traits and growth in pigs. Recently, these have progressed to examine increases in economic traits, including meat quality and meat quantity, by using candidate genes. One of them is the pituitary-specific protein PIT-1, a member of the POU (Pit-Oct-Unc) family of transcription factors playing an important regulatory role in developmental processes. In addition, muscle development is known to be regulated in part by growth factors and cytokines locally produced. Therefore, studies were performed to analyze PIT-1 genotypes and serum cytokines (IGF-I, IGF-II, TGF-${\beta}1$, EGF, cortisol, DHEA-S, IL-2, and IL-6) in castrated male pigs for their possible involvement in the development of carcass traits. The genotypes of PIT-1 gene were analyzed by PCR-RFLP with MspI restriction enzyme. But, only CD and DD genotypes, not CC genotype, have been detected. Based on PIT-1 genotyping, a significant difference in EGF expression beween CD type (78.8 ng/ml) and DD type (46.0 ng/ml) was detected (p<0.05), whereas other cytokines did not show any statistical significance depending on PIT-1 genotypes. Collectively, these results suggest the possibility that EGF could affect the formation of carcass traits.

Purpose: This single-center study aimed to assess the clinical features and surgical approaches and outcomes of complete transposition of the great arteries (TGA). Methods: TGA patients who had undergone surgical correction at the Kyungpook National University Hospital from January 2000 to December 2010, were retrospectively evaluated for patient characteristics, clinical manifestation, preoperative management, intraoperative findings, postoperative progress, and follow-up status. Results: Twenty-eight patients (17 boys and 11 girls, mean age=$10.6{\pm}21.5$ days) were included and were categorized as follows: group I, TGA with intact ventricular septum (n=13); group II, TGA with ventricular septal defect (VSD, n=12); and group III, TGA/VSD with pulmonary stenosis (n=3). Group I underwent the most intensive preoperative management (balloon atrial septostomy and prostaglandin E1 medication). Group II showed the highest incidence of heart failure (P<0.05). Usual and unusual coronary anatomy patterns were observed in 20 (71%) and 8 patients, respectively. Arterial and half-turned truncal switch operations were performed in 25 and 3 patients (Group III), respectively. Postoperative complications included cardiac arrhythmias (8 patients), central nervous system complications (3 patients), acute renal failure (1 patient), infections (3 patients), and cardiac tamponade (1 patient), and no statistically significant difference was observed between the groups. Group II showed the mildest aortic regurgitation on follow-up echocardiograms (P<0.05). One patient underwent reoperation, and 1 died. The overall mortality rate was 4%. Conclusion: Our study showed favorable results in all the groups and no significant difference in postoperative complication, reoperation, and mortality among the groups. However, our results were inadequate to evaluate the risk factors for reoperation and mortality owing to the small number of patients and short follow-up duration.

Here we show that perchlorate reduction during pitting corrosion of zero-valent titanium (ZVT) is likely caused by dissolved titanium species, especially Ti(II). Several possible mechanisms were suggested based on the literature and were evaluated based on experimental observations. Direct reduction of perchlorate on the bare metal of the ZVT electrode was thermodynamically infeasible due to the high anodic potential that was applied. Other potential mechanisms were considered such as reduction by small ZVT metal particles released from the electrode and direct reduction on the oxide layer of the electrode where potential was sufficiently reduced by a high ohmic potential drop. However, these mechanisms were not supported by experimental results. The most likely mechanism for perchlorate reduction was that during pitting corrosion, in which ZVT is partially oxidized to form dissolved ions such as Ti(II), which diffuse from the electrode surface and react with perchlorate in solution. This mechanism is supported by measurements of the dissolution valence and the molar ratio of ZVT consumed to perchlorate reduced (${\Delta}Ti(0)/{\Delta}ClO_4{^-}$). The results shown in this study demonstrate that ZVT undergoing pitting corrosion has the capability to chemically reduce perchlorate by producing dissolved Ti(II) and therefore, it has the potential to be applied in treatment systems. On the other hand, the results of this research imply that the application of ZVT undergoing pitting corrosion in treatment systems may not be feasible now due to several factors, including material and electricity costs and possible chloride oxidation.

Objectives: This study evaluated the predictive factors for survival of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and investigated the overall and disease-specific survival (DSS) outcomes. Materials and Methods: A total of 67 consecutive patients who underwent surgery for OSCC from January 2006 to November 2014 were included in this study. Patients were classified according to age, sex, pTNM stages, primary sites, smoking and alcohol drinking habits, depth of invasion, perineural and lymphovascular invasion, cell differentiation and postoperative radiotherapy. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate the survival categorized by patient groups. Cox regression methods were used to investigate the main independent predictors of survival. Results: Nineteen patients died of OSCC during follow-up periods. Another five patients died of other diseases including lung adenocarcinoma (n=1), cerebral infarction (n=1), general weakness (n=2), and pneumonia (n=1). The tongue (n=16) was the most common site for primary origin, followed by buccal mucosa (n=15), mandibular gingiva (n=15), maxillary gingiva (n=9), floor of mouth (n=9), retromolar trigone (n=2), and palate (n=1). Eleven patients had pTNM stage I disease, followed by stage II (n=22) and stage IV (n=34). No patients had pTNM stage III disease in this study. The overall survival of all patients was 64.2% and the DSS was 71.6%. DSS of patients with stage I and II disease was 100%. Stepwise Cox regression showed the two predictors for DSS were pTNM stage (P<0.0001, odds ratio=19.633) and presence of metastatic lymph nodes (P=0.0004, odds ratio=0.1039). Conclusion: OSCC has been associated with poor prognosis; however, there were improved survival outcomes compared with past studies. Advanced-stage disease and presence of metastatic lymph nodes were associated with poorer survival compared with early-stage OSCC and absence of neck node metastasis. Stage I and II OSCC were associated with excellent survival results in this study.
