  • The present study was conducted to investigate the role of thyroid hormones in the regulation of gene expression of calbindin-$D_{28k}$ (CaBP-D28K) in the chicken. By employing slot blot and RIA analyses, levels of CABP-D28K mRNA and CaBP-D28K protein in the intestine, kidney, cerebellum and liver were measured 6 and 12 h after i.m. injection of 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin $D_3$ [1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$; 250 ng/chick] and 3, 5, 3'-triiodothyronine ($T_3$; 500 ng/chick) in one-day-old chicks. The abundant messages of CaBP-D28K mRNA were detected in the intestine, kidney and cerebellum while there was little message in the liver. After 1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$ treatment (6 + 12 hours), levels of CaBP-D28K mRNA increased in the intestine, but there was no change in the mRNA levels in the kidney and cerebellum. Although $T_3$ alone had no effect on CaBP-D28K mRNA levels, simultaneous administration of $T_3$ enhanced the 1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$ effect of levels of CaBP-D28K mRNA in the intestine both 6 and 12 h post-treatment, and in the kidney 12 h post-treatment. At a protein level, co-treatment with 1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$ and $T_3$ elicited a significant increase in CaBP-D28K expression in the intestine 12 h post-treatment, as compared to treatment with only 1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$, whereas no differences were observed in the CaBP-D28K protein levels in the kidney and cerebellum. These results suggest that thyroid hormones may play a synergistic role with 1, 25 $(OH)_2D_3$ for CaBP-D28K gene expression in the intestine and kidney in chicks.

  • Recently, 3D printer technology has been attracting attention in various industrial fields, and research papers are being conducted to utilize 3D printers in the construction industry. Actual structures such as bridges and buildings are being printed to 3D printers, and various applications such as mock-up structures using 3D printers are being proposed. In order to utilize 3D printer technology in the construction field, a 3D model is required, and the 3D BIM data produced at the design stage can be printed by a 3D printers, saving the cost and time of 3D model generation. However, 3D BIM data often does not satisfy the conditions for 3D printer output, causing many errors on output. In this paper, authors propose a problem analysis for 3D BIM model output to 3D printer and a method for reducing errors in 3D printing process of 3D BIM model. In addition, this paper presents a practical application of 3D model output from 3D printer.

  • In this paper, in order to resolve the problem of reduction for D2D (device to device) advertisement dissemination efficiency of conventional dissemination algorithms, we here propose several clustering algorithms (modified single linkage algorithm (MSL), K-means algorithm, and expectation maximization algorithm with Gaussian mixture model (EM)) based advertisement dissemination algorithms to improve advertisement dissemination efficiency in D2D communication networks. Target areas are clustered in several target groups by the proposed clustering algorithms. Then, D2D advertisements are consecutively distributed by using a routing algorithm based on the geographical distribution of the target areas and a relay selection algorithm based on the distance between D2D sender and D2D receiver. Via intensive MATLAB simulations, we analyze the performance excellency of the proposed algorithms with respect to maximum number of relay transmissions and D2D user density ratio in a target area and a non-target area.

  • In this paper, we report on the performance stability of solution processible OTFT devices with Au/Ti and ITO source-drain (S/D) electrodes. It appears that the contact resistance of the S/D electrode strongly affects the stability of OTFT devices. Interestingly, the devices with the Au/Ti electrode showed lower mobility than those with the ITO (S/D) devices. The field effect mobilities of the devices with the Au/Ti and ITO electrodes were 0.06, and $0.44cm^2/Vs$, respectively. However, the mobility of the device with the Au/Ti electrode was increased up to $0.26cm^2/Vs$ after 2 weeks, while the mobility of the device with ITO electrode was slightly decreased down to $0.41cm^2/Vs$. The experimental data show us that ITO could be used as the S/D electrode for low-cost OTFT devices.

  • Two new triterpenoid saponins, named segetoside D and E, have been isolated from the seeds of Vaccaria segetalis. On the basis of chemical reactions and spectral data, structures of segetoside D and E have been established as: $28-O-[{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)]-[5-O-acetyl-{\alpha}-arabinofuranosyl(1{\rightarrow}3)]-[4-O-acetyl-{\beta}-D-fucopyranosyl]-quillaic\;acid-3-O-[{\beta}-D-galactopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)]6-O-methyl\;ester-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranoside$ and $28-O-[{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)]-[5-O-acetyl-{\alpha}-arabinofuranosyl(1{\rightarrow}3)]-[4-O-acetyl-{\beta}-D-fucopyranosyl]-quillaic\;acid\;-3-O-[{\beta}-D-galactopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)]-6-O-n-butyl\;ester-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranoside$, respectively.

  • 원자력 시설 및 연구용 원자로 해체 시 해체 공정의 효율성을 증진시키기 위해 컴퓨터 그래픽스를 이용한 해체 공정의 최적화 연구가 수행되었다. 애니메이션 설계를 위해 해체 시설 및 구조물과 해체 장비의 모델링이 완료되었으며, 방사능에 오염된 대상물의 방사능 분포도를 위치별, 준위별로 확인할 수 있도록 3 차원으로 나타내었다. 해체 일정과 해체 폐기물량 그리고 해체 비용을 모사하기 위해 각 정보들에 대한 평가식과 가중치 값을 도출하였다. 연구로 1 호기 Thermal column 을 대상으로 애니메이션을 통한 해체 공정절차 시각화와 단위 해체 공정 시나리오를 수행한 결과 애니메이션의 경우 해체 현장과 동일하게 모델링 되어 현장 작업자들이 해체 공정 절차를 쉽게 이해할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였으며, 시나리오 별 해체 소요시간과 폐기물량 그리고 해체 비용의 경우 정상적으로 모사가 수행됨으로써 단위 해체 공정에 대한 최적의 시나리오를 평가 할 수 있는 기초 연구의 틀을 마련하였다. 본 시스템은 해체 관리자, 해체 시스템 분석가, 해체 현장 감독과 해체 작업자들의 중요한 협업도구로 활용될 것으로 사료된다.
