Polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly[I:C]) can stimulate Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) signaling pathways. In this study, DF-1 cells were treated with poly(I:C) at various concentrations and time points to examine the comparative expression patterns of innate immune response genes. The viability of DF-1 cells decreased from 77.41% to 38.68% when cells were treated different dose of poly(I:C) from 0.1 ㎍/mL to 100 ㎍/mL for 24 h respectively. The expressions of TLR3, TLR4, TLR7, TLR15, TLR21, IL1B, and IL10 were increased in dose- and time-dependent manners by poly(I:C) treatment. On the contrary, the expression patterns of interferon regulatory factors 7 (IRF7), Jun proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit (JUN), Nuclear Factor Kappa B Subunit 1 (NF-κB1), and IL8L2 were varied; IRF7 and IL8L2 were increasingly expressed whereas the expressions of JUN and NF-κB1 were decreased in a dose-dependent manner after they were early induced. In time-dependent analysis, IRF7 expression was significantly upregulated from 3 h to 24 h, whereas JUN and NF-κB1 expressions settled down from 6 h to 24 h after poly(I:C) treatment although they were induced at early time from 1 h to 3 h. Poly(I:C) treatment rapidly increased the expression of IL8L2 from 3 h to 6 h with a plateau at 6 h and then the expression of IL8L2 was dramatically decreased until 24 h after poly(I:C) treatment although the expression level was still higher than the non-treated control. These results may provide the basis for understanding host response to viral infection and its mimicry system in chickens.

In this paper, we present a new construction for self-dual codes that uses the concept of double bordered construction, group rings, and reverse circulant matrices. Using groups of orders 2, 3, 4, and 5, and by applying the construction over the binary field and the ring F₂ + uF₂, we obtain extremal binary self-dual codes of various lengths: 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, and 48. In particular, we show the significance of this new construction by constructing the unique Extended Binary Golay Code [24, 12, 8] and the unique Extended Quadratic Residue [48, 24, 12] Type II linear block code. Moreover, we strengthen the existing relationship between units and non-units with the self-dual codes presented in [10] by limiting the conditions given in the corollary. Additionally, we establish a relationship between idempotent and self-dual codes, which is done for the first time in the literature.

Purpose： It is known that diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) is helpful in the evaluation of malignancy grading in brain tumor. This study was to evaluate the DWls with different b-values of various brain tumors in order to determine optimal b-values on 3T MR unit. Method： On a 3T MR unit, DWls with b-values of 1, 000, 3, 000 and 5, 000 s/mm2 were obtained in 20 patients of pathologically-proven brain tumors (7 metastases, 4 high grade gliomas, 2 Iymphomas, 2 low grade gliomas, 2 germinomas, and one each of germinoma, meningioma, hemangioblastoma and central neurocytoma. The overall image quality, contrast between normal brain parenchyma and tumor and signal intensities of solid and cystic components were comparatively evaluated among DWls with different b-values by visual inspection.

This study examined the reproducibility of nutrient intakes estimated by the 24-hour recall method in a prospective cohort study (Longitudinal study of aging and health monitoring of Korean elderly) of middle-aged volunteer subjects (42 males and 49 females) in the Seoul area. The three-day 24-hour recall was administered twice at an interval of approximately 6 months. The first data were collected and a corrective procedure was performed by interviewing of the subjects and a trained dietitian. The second data were collected by mail from the subjects without the performance of any corrective procedure. The mean age of the subjects was 53.5 $\pm$ 9.6 for the males and 52.2 $\pm$ 8.9 for the females. The subjects who had above college education were 95% in the case of the males and 60% in the case of the females. The characteristics of the male subjects in this study were that they were highly educated and held professional jobs and were from the middle or upper class. Comparing the first and second 24-hour recall data, the second data showed relatively lower intakes of all nutrients, except vitamin A, vitamin Bi and cholesterol. There was no difference in the nutrients of the first and the second data with respect to vitamin A, vitamin B$_1$ and cholesterol in the males and calcium, iron, sodium, vitamin A, vitamin B$_1$, vitamin B$_2$ and cholesterol in the females. This data may indicate that the 24 hour retail method without a dietitian's help may result in lower reporting of the subject's intakes. The men had a tendency to remember less than the women. Pearson's correlation coefficients with unadjusted nutrient intakes values were ranged from 0.24 to 0.66. When energy intake was adjusted, there was a slight increase (from 0.26 to 0.71). Intra-class correlation coefficients with nutrient-unadjusted values ranged from 0.22 to 0.66, and the energy-adjusted values were ranged from 0.23 to 0.69. The weighted Kappa statistical values ranged from 0.10 to 0.40. On the average,46.3% of the subjects who were found in the lowest quartile of the nutrient intake levels based on the first 24-hour recall, were in the lowest quartile based on the second 24-hour recall. Therefore, there was a low reproducibility between the first and the second 24-hour recall. We should examine the factors influencing low reproducibility. Also, strategies should be developed to maximize the reliability of the assessment, with regard to portion-size training and telephone validation. (Korean J Community Nutrition 8(4) : 603∼609, 2003)

배경: HMGB1은 염증반응의 후기에 분비되는 중요한 염증유발물질 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 염증유발물질로 잘 알려진 LPS와 새롭게 염증유발물질로 관심을 받고 있는 HMGB1의 염증유발작용을 생체 외 및 생체 내 실험을 통해 비교하고자 하였다. 또한 HMGB1의 자극에 의한 IL-8 promoter region의 활성화에 중요한 역할을 수행하는 전사인자들을 확인하고자 하였다. 방법: RAW264.7 세포에 LPS(100 ng/ml) 또는 HMGB1(500 ng/ml)을 투여하고 각각 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 그리고 24시간 뒤에 세포상층액의 $TNF-{\alpha}$, MIP-2 그리고 $IL-1{\beta}$의 농도를 ELISA법으로 측정하였다. 생쥐의 복강에 LPS(5 mg/kg) 또는 HMGB1(2.5 mg/kg)을 주입하여 급성폐손상을 유발한 후에 폐의 사이토카인의 발현과 MPO 활성도를 측정하였다(LPS는 4시간 뒤, HMGB1은 24 시간 뒤). IL-8 promoter 부위에 있는 NF-IL6, $NF-{\kappa}B$ 그리고 AP-1에 대한 결합부위에 대해 돌연변이를 일으킨 후에 각각의 돌연변이체를 pIL-6luc에 결합시킨 뒤 RAW264.7 세포에 삽입하였다. 이 세포들을 36시간 배양한 후에 HMGB1(500 ng/ml)으로 자극하고, 한 시간 뒤에 세포를 녹인 후 luciferase 활성도를 측정하였다. 결과: LPS 투여 후에 RAW264.7 세포 배양상층액의 $TNF-{\alpha}$농도는 24시간 뒤에, MIP-2 농도는 8시간 뒤에 최고치를 보였다. 한편 HMGB1 투여 후에는 $TNF-{\alpha}$와 MIP-2 농도 모두 24시간 뒤에 최고치를 나타내었다. LPS 복강 내 투여 후 4시간 뒤에 생쥐의 폐의 $TNF-{\alpha}$, MIP-2 그리고 $IL-1{\beta}$의 농도는 대조군에 비해 현저히 증가하였으나, HMGB1 복강 내 투여 후 24시간 뒤에 생쥐의 폐에서는 $IL-1{\beta}$의 농도만 약간 증가하였다. MPO 활성도는 LPS와 HMGB1 투여 후에 모두 증가하였으며, LPS 투여 후가 더 의미있게 증가하였다. $NF-{\kappa}B$ 돌연변이체와 AP-1 돌연변이체에서 luciferase 활성도가 의미있게 감소하였다. 결론: 이상의 결과를 살펴볼 때 HMGB1은 염증유발효과는 LPS에 비해 강도가 떨어지나 지속시간은 오래 계속되는 것으로 보이며, HMGB1에 의한 IL-8의 활성화에 $NF-{\kappa}B$ 뿐만 아니라 AP-1도 중요한 역할을 수행하는 것으로 판단된다.

Silymarin is the standardized extract from Silybum marianum which consists mainly of flavonoids and polyphenols. It is highly regarded for its hepatoprotective ability. Silybin B is a flavonolignan and one of the active components of silymarin. The content of silybin B in various parts of S. marianum was analyzed by HPLC-UV. Results show that the extract of seeds contain the highest amount of silybin B (7.434 mg/g DW). The petioles of S. marianum showed a low content of silybin B. This study revealed that seeds of S. marianum contain high amount of silybin B and could be a good source of the compound.

We have made an investigation on the radial and azimuthal wave modes of full halo coronal mass ejections (HCMEs). For this, we consider 24 HCMEs which are simultaneously observed by SOHO and STEREO A & B from August 2010 to August 2012 when they were roughly in quadrature. Using the SOHO/LASCO C3 and STEREO COR2 A & B running difference images, we estimate the instantaneous apparent speeds of the HCMEs at 24 different position angles. Major results from this study are as follows. First, there are quasi-periodic variations of the instantaneous radial velocity with the periods ranging from 24 to 48 mins. Second, the amplitudes of instant speed variations are about a third of the projected speeds. Third, the amplitudes are found to have a weak anti-correlation with period. Our preliminary identification from SOHO observations shows that there are several distinct radial and azimuthal wave modes: m=0 (radial) for five events, m=1 for eleven events, m=2 for three events, and unclear for the other events. In addition, we are making a statistical investigation on the oscillation of 733 CMEs to understand their physical origins.
