Purpose: Several cryoprotectants are in use to help the survival of cells during cryopreservation of bone in maxillofacial region. Among them, $Me_2SO$(dimethyl sulfoxide), EG(ethylene glycol), sucrose were used for experimentally created defects with accompanying cryopreserved bone graft in the rabbit model. The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of above mentioned agents on bone formation using histologic and histomorphometrical methods, thus to provide experimental support for clinical application of these agents. Materials and methods: Nine rabbits were used as experimental animals. Surgical defects were created on the distal femoral heads and mesial tibial heads of each animal using trephine drill(5mm diameter and 5mm length). The harvested bones were cryopreserved in $-80^{\circ}C$ refrigerator for one week. The defects were filled with cryopreserved bone with cryoprotectants as experimental groups and cryopreserved bone without cryoprotectant as control. Then, the animals were sacrificed at 1, 2, and 3 weeks after surgery. With Goldner's modified Masson trichrome staining and semiautomatic image analysis system, we observed the change of the cells and bone formation. Results: After bone graft, bone formation and active remodeling process were examined in all experimental groups and the control. But the intensity of such activities of the control were somewhat weaker than that of the experiments. Especially $Me_2SO$+sucrose group was the best in bone formation and bone remodeling. $Me_2SO$ group was more than that of EG group in bone fomation. Sucrose seems to be helpful in survival of the bone cell. Histologic findings showed superior bony quantity and quality in experimental groups than that in control. Conclusions: The data from this study provides the basis for future studies for evaluating the effect of cryoprotectants in the cryopreservation of bone and clinical study for predictable use of these agents.

냉동보존이 진주조개(Pincata fucata martensii) 유생의 형태 및 구조에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 냉동전후 D형 및 각정기 유생을 광학 및 전자현미경으로 조사하였다. 동해방지제는 0.2 M sucrose를 첨가한 2.0 M $Me_2SO$를 사용하였다. 냉동후 유생은 일부 패각이 손상되긴 했지만 hinge와 prodissoconch가 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, 소포체, 지질 과립, 미토콘드리아, 핵 등을 포함한 세포내 소기관들이 고르게 분포되어 있었다. 또한, 섬모가 규칙적으로 배열되어 있었고, 섬모 아래 미토콘드리아와 지질과립이 위치해 있는 것이 관찰되었으나, 일부 해동된 유생에서 섬모의 불규칙적인 배열과 섬모환이 둥글게 뭉쳐져 있는 모습이 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과는 진주조개의 D형 유생과 각정기 유생이 냉동에 쉽게 영향을 받을 수 있다는 것을 보여준다. 따라서 냉동보존 시 세포의 손상을 감소시킬 수 있는 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The present study examined the possibility of long term storage, by cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen, of the sperm of Filefish (Thamnaconus septentrionalis), and the changes in motility, survival rate and ultrastructure of the sperm after freezing and thawing. The sperm was collected by stripping and stored on ice until experiments. For selection of the immobilizing solution, diluted artificial seawater (ASW) of 20, 30 and 40% were tested. The sperm motility was significantly inhibited in 30% ASW, and restored entirely after 100% ASW was added again. Two cryoprotectants, dimethyl sulfoxide ($Me_2$SO) and glycerol, were added to 30% ASW to formulate the extenders at the concentrations between 5 to 20% by volume for freezing. The sperm was diluted at the ratio of 1 :6 with the extenders, inserted into 0.5ml plastic straws and frozen at a freezing rate of $50^{\circ}C$/min to $-100^{\circ}C$ after equilibration for 10 min at room temperature, followed by plunging into liquid nitrogen. The straws were thawed in a $30^{\circ}C$ water bath for 15 sec. The highest post-thawed sperm motility and survival rate were obtained with 5% glycerol Afterward, the effect of different freezing rates was examined using 5% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, and the rate of $20^{circ}C/min to $-80^{\circ}C$ showed the best result Some ultrastructural changes of sperm, such as the detachment of plasmatic and nuclear membranes, destruction of mitochondria, were observed after cryopreservation. Morphological normality of the sperm in 5% glycerol frozen at the ratio of 1$0^{\circ}C$/min to $-80^{\circ}C$ was better than that of others.
