  • Research of thyroid cancer, liver cancer, and lung cancer has been reported in Korea. However microRNA research of multiple myeloma has never been reported. Hence we intended to confirm whether microRNA can be utilized as a diagnostic marker to patients of multiple myeloma. We also intended to evaluate whether microRNA can be detected in paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE). This research was conducted targeting 8 samples from patients of multiple myeloma who do not have any other diseases, and 2 control samples. From January 2010 to July 2012, we selected miR-15a, miR-16, miR-21, miR-181a and miR-221 as microRNA target genes. It was decided that for a sample to be significant, the results should show values more than 1.5 or less than -1.5. Our findings of fold change were highly significant in miR-15a with a value of 37.5% (3/8). From these studies, we learned that miR-15a is useful with westerners. miR-221, on the other hand, shows conflicts with westerners, so more research will be needed in this area. In addition, it was confirmed that microRNA can be detected in paraffin embedded tissue (FFPE).

Role of MRI and Plain Radiograph to Diagnose Fibrous Dysplasia Mimicking Metastasis on PET/CT in a Patient with Breast Cancer (유방암환자의 양전자방출단층촬영술에서 암 전이로 오인된 섬유형성이상 진단의 자기공명영상과 단순촬영의 역할)

  • Fibrous dysplasia is a common benign disorder of bone in which normal bone marrow is replaced with fibro-osseous tissue. As PET/CT is increasingly used for the staging of different malignant disease, incidentally found fibrous dysplasia with increased FDG uptake may mimic metastasis. We report on a 46-year-old woman with fibrous dysplasia who underwent PET/CT because of suspected recurrence of breast cancer and was misdiagnosed as a bony metastasis with a focal FDG uptake on left proximal femur. This lesion was interpreted as fibrous dysplasia based on MRI in addition to the plain radiographs. We conclude that MRI in addition to radiography may help to differentiate fibrous dysplasia mimicking metastasis on PET/CT in the patients with malignancy.

  • 최근 생물 유전자 정보를 효과적으로 분석하기 위한 적절한 도구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 백혈병 환자의 골수로부터 얻어낸 DNA Microarray 유전 정보를 분류하여 환자가 가지고 있는 암의 종류를 예측하기 위한 최적의 특징추출방법과 분류 방법을 찾고자 한다. 이를 위해 피어슨 상관관계, 유클리디안 거리, 코사인 계수, 스피어맨 상관관계, 정보 이득, 상호 정보, 신호 대잡음비의 7가지 특징 추출 방법을 사용하였으며, 역전과 신경망, 의사결정 트리, 구조 적응형 자기구성 지도, $textsc{k}$-최근접 이웃 등 가지의 기계학습 분류기를 이용하여 분류 실험을 하였다. 실험결과, 피어슨 상관관계와 역전파 신경망을 이용한 분류 방법이 97.1%의 인식률을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

  • The adhesion and proliferation of mammalian cells on polymeric biomaterials depend on the surface characteristics such as wettability, chemistry, charge and roughness. In order to recognize the correlation between the adhesion and proliferation of human bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSCs) and surface property, radio frequency generated plasma treatment on low density polyethylene (LDPE) has been carried out. The modified LDPE surfaces were characterized by measuring the static water contact angle. The adhesion and proliferation of cells on LDPE films were characterized by cell counting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The water contact angle of the film surface decreased with plasma treatment time. Proto-oncogenes (c-myc, c-fos) and tumor suppressor gene (p153) showed maximum expression with contact angle of 60 ∼ 70$^{\circ}$ range of LDPE film. By cell counting, we confirmed that the rate of cell proliferation appeared the higher on the film surface of the contact angle of 60∼70$^{\circ}$ We concluded that the surface wettability is an important role for the growth and differentiation of BMSCs.

  • Chronic osteomyelitis have been treated with wound dressing and antibiotics therapy often results in healing but foul odor pus discharges from the fibrotic soft tissues reactivates and requires appropriate control of the infection. Debridement of the wound, curettage and sequestrectomy, bone graft and immediate free flap transplantation is the curative protocol for the chronic osteomyelitis in the lower extremity. Authors have treated 7 cases of chronic osteomyelitis in the lower extremity with microsurgical free tissue transplantation at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Chonbuk National University Hospital from December 1993 through February 1998. The results are as follows. 1. The chronic osteomyelitis occurred in tibial shaft in 4 cases, in calcaneus 2 cases and in femur 1 case. 2. Duration of the chronic osteomyelitis was at average 31.6 years. 3. Squamous cell carcinoma in the surrounding fibrotic tissue was biopsied in 1 case. 4. 4 cases had no trauma and occurred through hematogenous infection and 3 cases had fracture trauma. 5. Wound debridement and immediate free muscle transplantation had done in 5 cases and wound debridement, sequestrectomy and immediate free muscle transplantation in 2 cases. 6. Rectus abdominis muscle transplantation had peformed in 4 cases(57.1%), latissimus dorsi mucle 1 case(14.3%), latissimus dorsi myocutaneous 1 case(14.3%) and gracilis 1 case (14.3%). 6 cases of 7 were success(85.7%). 7. 1 case of failed latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap in thigh had done above knee amputation and 1 case of chronic posttraumatic osteoarthritis of the ankle joint had done below knee amputation at other hospital.
