This study was designed to identify how the incidence and severity of premenstrual. syndrome (PMS) correlate with the nutrient intakes and exercise habit of women. The subjects of this study were 299 women residing in Busan metropolitan city. Each subject was asked to complete a menstrual discomfort questionnaire (MDQ) for PMS and nutrient intakes. PMS symptom scores of women in their twenties ranked in order of severity were: behavioral change (2.45), followed by pain (2.36) and water retention (2.28), negative effects (2.20), autonomic reaction (1.91), arousal (1.87), decreased concentration (1.76) and decreased control (1.74). For Women in their thirties, the symptom of pain was the most dominant (2.93) followed by autonomic reaction (2.69) and behavioral change (2.54), and for those in their forties, negative effect (3.06) was highest, followed by pain (2.97) and autonomic reaction (2.86). The overall symptoms of PMS significantly increased with age (20': 2.07 points, 30': 2.34 points, 40': 2.47 points). There was no correlation of the BMI of the subjects with the symptoms of PMS, but there was a significant negative correlation between the symptoms of PMS and exercise frequency for women in their thirties and forties. Subjects in their twenties exhibited a significant negative correlation for PMS symptoms with the intake of carbohydrate (p < 0.05), calcium (p < 0.05) and vitamin E (p < 0.05). For subjects in their thirties, PMS symptoms were negatively correlated with the intake of calcium (p < 0.05) and vitamin C (p < 0.05); and in women in their forties, calcium (p < 0.01) and carbohydrate (p < 0.05) intakes were negatively correlated with PMS symptoms. This suggests that PMS represents the clinical manifestation of a nutrient deficiency state, especially calcium. Therefore, we concluded that nutrient supplementation and exercise management are likely to be of benefit in relieving PMS symptoms.

The present study was aimed to investigate the preventive effects of rebamipide on the multiple organ dysfunction in a rat model of circulatory shock induced by bacterial endotoxin (E. coli lipopolysaccharide; LPS) in comparison with that of methotrexate. Endotoxemia for 6 hours resulted in little change in the levels of hemoglobin and neutrophils. However, treatment with methotrexate decreased significantly the numbers of circulating neutrophils. Significant increases in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT,958 $\pm$ 250 lU/L, p<0.001) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST, 1350 $\pm$ 295 lU/L, p<0.001) levels induced by endotoxemia were significantly decreased by rebamipide and methotrexate. The increased level of lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) by LPS (2850 $\pm$ 467 lU/L, p<0.05) was significantly inhibited by rebamipide, but not by methot.elate. The elevated serum creatinine (1.2$\pm$0.1, p.0.05) and urea levels (55.3$\pm$6.5 mg/dL, p.0.01) by LPS were also decreased by rebamipide, but not by methotrexate. In line with these results, the plasma concentration of tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$ (TNF-7,167 $\pm$ 20 pg/mL) was significantly increased upon injection of endotoxin at 1 hour by 1570$\pm$100 pg/mL, and declined to 312$\pm$35 pg/mL at 6 hours. The TNF-$\alpha$ level at 6 hours was significantly decreased by rebamipide to 207$\pm$8 pg/mL (P<0.05). Taken together, it is summarized that rebamipide inhibits the development of multiple ogran dysfunction by inhibition of neutrophil activation in association with inhibition of TNF-$\alpha$ formation in a murine model of endotoxemia.

Objective : We analyzed the methylation status of the O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter in World Health Organization (WHO) grade III gliomas in association with other molecular markers to evaluate their prevalence. Methods : The samples of a total of 36 newly WHO grade III glioma patients including 19 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AO), 7 anaplastic oligoastrocytomas (AOA), and 10 anaplastic astrocytomas (AA) were analyzed. The methylation status of the MGMT gene promoter was confirmed by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction. The 1p/19q chromosomal deletion status and EGFR amplification were assessed by Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization. MGMT, EGFR, EGFRvlll, and p53 expression were analyzed by immunohistochemical staining. Results : The MGMT gene promoter was methylated in 32 (88.9%) and unmethylated in 4 (11.2%) Among them, all of the AO and AOA had methylated MGMT gene promoter without exception. Significant associations between MGMT gene promoter hypermethylation and 1p/19q deletion was observed (p=0.003). Other molecular markers failed to show significant associations between MGMT gene promoter statuses. Conclusion : There was extensive epigenetic silencing of MGMT gene in high grade gliomas with oligodendroglial component. Together with frequent 1p/19q co-deletion in oligodendroglial tumors, this may add plausible explanations supporting the relative favorable prognosis in oligodendroglial tumors compared with pure astrocytic tumors.

The objective of this study was to prepare bioactive ginseng yogurts containing compound K, which is transformed from ginsenosides, and to investigate the compound's cytotoxicity against tumor cells. Milk containing ginseng was fermented by Bifidobacteria KK-I and KK-2, and their activities for transforming ginsenosides to compound K were measured. Among the tested concentrations of ginseng in the milk, compound K was effectively produced in the 3% and 6% ginseng yogurts fermented for 48 hrs. These fermented ginseng yogurts were extracted with BuOH, and their cytotoxicities against tumor cells were examined. The BuOH extract of the yogurt made from the 3% ginseng milk showed cytotoxic activity against P388 and HeLa tumor cells. However, the nonfermented ginseng milk did not exhibit cytotoxicity against these cells. Therefore, we deem that the ginseng yogurt, which contained compound K, could be developed as a potential fermented drink product.

The MeOH extract of Notopterygium incisum showed a strong cytotoxicity against B16 murine melanoma cell line. From this extract three furanocoumarins including bergamottin, isoimperatorin, notopterol and one polyacetylenic compound (falcarindiol) together with one phenylpropanoid (caffeic acid methyl ester) and one triterpenoid (pregnenolone) were isolated. The isolated compounds were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against four kinds of cancer cell lines, e.g. P388 (murine lymphocytic leukemia), B16 (murine melanoma), A549 (human lung carcinoma) and SK-OV-3 (human ovarian cancer). Among the isolates, falcarindiol and caffeic acid methyl ester expressed a significant antiproliferative activity against all tested cell lines.
