In this study, the breads with medicinal herbs (MH) composites showing cognitive function were prepared and their characteristics were examined. Fifteen kinds of medicinal herbs were extracted with hot water and divided into 3 groups (MH-1, MH-2, MH-3) based on their contents. All groups showed cognitive function in terms of promoting muscarinic receptor, NMDA receptor and acetylcholinesterase inhibition. In the preparation of breads containing MH extracts of various contents (0, 10, 20, 30, and 50%), there were no significant difference among loaf weight of all groups, but loaf volume of all groups were significantly (p<0.05) decreased with increasing content of MH extracts compared to the control group. The "a" and "b" values of bread crumb increased with the content of MH extracts while "L" value decreased, but these values of bread crust were similar to the control group. The most improvements in hardness, fracturability, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of bread were noticed by the addition of 10$\sim$20% MH extracts, while adhesiveness and springiness of bread were the most by the 30% addition ones. Through the sensory evaluation, it was revealed that appearance, mouth feeling, taste, overall preference and crumb texture of bread were not significantly different (p<0.05) between control and those with the 10% addition ones. Therefore the 10% addition ones, which got similar scores to control, will make the most desirable product.

Ras oncogene의 산물로서 대부분의 암조직이나 transformed human cell에서 거의 공통적으로 발견되는 p21 단백질은 C-terminal processing에 의해 먼저 C-terminal cysyeine에 palmition 된 후 carboxylmethylation 된다. Palmitation은 transforming activity의 요건인 세포막에 대한 친화력을 유지시키기 위한것으로 추측되며, cysteine residue의 carboxylmethylation의 의미는 아직 확실히 밝혀지고 있지 않으나 세포막에 대한 친화력을 증가 시키는 것으로 추측되고있다. 본 연구에서는 S-Farnesylcysteine Methyltransferase의 기질로서 N-acetyl-S-trans, trans-farnesyl-L-cysteine(AFC)을 합성하였으며, 본 실험실에서 계속 연구하여 온 돼지 간장으로 부터 정제한 천연 단백성 Methylation Inhibitor의 S-Farnesylcysteine Methyltransferase 활성에 대한 억제효과를 검색하였다. 천연 단백성 Methylation Inhibitor는 돼지 간조직의 soluble fraction을 열처리하여 Sephadex G-25 column chromatngraphy한 후 reverse phase HPLC로 정제하였다. 본 inhibitor는 약 10개의 아미노산으로 구성된 peptide성 천연물질로 분자량은 1,400 Da 으로서 합성한 AFC를 기질로 하였을 때, 흰쥐 뇌 조직내 S-Farnesylcysteine methyltransferase에 대한 $IC_{50}$/은 0,82 $\times$ $10^{-6}$ M이었으며 또한 human cancer cell line의 S-Farnesylcysteine Methyltransferase에 대해서도 현저한 저해효과를 나타내었다.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of silkworm powder on oxygen radicals and their scavenger enzymes in brain membrances of SD rats. Hydroxyl radical (OH) levels resulted in a considerable decreases in brain mitochondria fraction. Superoxide radical (O$_2$) levels were a slightly decreased in brain cytosol fraction. Lipid peroxide (LPO) and Oxidized protein (OP) levels were significantly decreased in brain mitochondria and microsomes fraction. Mn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was remarkably increased in the mitochondria fraction. Cu and Zn-SOD activities were effectively increased in brain cytosol fraction. GSHPx activity was considerably increased in brain cytosol fraction. These results suggest that anti-aging effect of silkworm plays an effective role in attenuating an oxidative stress and increasing a scravenger enzyme activity in brain membranes.

미디어 디지털컨버전스 환경에서 교육을 수용하는 도구로서 e-Book은 향후 더 많은 확산이 기대되어진다. 본 연구에서는 학습자의 학습도구로서 e-Book과 종이책의 수용 의도를 뇌파를 분석(자기조절지수, 기초율동지수, 주의지수, 활성지수, 정서지수, 항스트레스지수, 좌우뇌균형지수, 브레인지수 분석)하여 실험하였으며, e-Book을 사용후, 성별에 상관없이 내외적 환경 요인으로 인한 육체적, 정신적 피로도에 대한 저항력을 나타내는 항스트레스 지수가 낮아지는 결과를 얻었다. 향후, 본 연구를 기반으로 개선방향을 찾을 필요가 있다.

The activity of Mg and Na-K activated ATPase of homogenate from rat brain cortex was measured in vitro under the variety of conditions. The effects of various hypnotic and tranquilizer such as phenobarbital, amobarbital, diazepam, promazine and chlorpromazine on the activities of both ATPase was investigated and the results was summarized as follows. 1. Na-K ATPase was slightly inhibited by phenobarbital and amobarbital while Mg ATPase was moderately activated by these drugs. 2. Both Mg and Na-K ATPase activities were markedly inhibited by diazepam. 3. Promazine and chlorpromazine markedly inhibited both Mg and Na-K ATPase activities. These findings indicate that remarkable correlation between hypnotic or tranquilizing potency and ATPase inhibition could be observed.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference of brain activity during action observation training and image training throughout EEG. Methods This study was participated 1 healthy college student without mental illness or cognitive impairment. The subject was randomly selected from university students and was interested in participating in the experiment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the visual and auditory stimuli (action observation) and brain image training. Results The results of our study, EEG value measured o.1 during resting. But brain activity changed to 0.3 during action observation. Finally, it changed to .05 after brain image training. Conclusion EEG measurement results were showed that after watching the Ball squat video, Brain activity increased.

The effect of polyamines on the cabbage phospholipase D(PLD) activity was investigated. The PLD activity was determined by pH-stat titration of phosphatidic acid, one of the enzymatic reaction product, using phosphatidyl choline small unilamellar vesicles as a substrate. The cabbage PLD was activated approximately 4 fold by spermine at 1 mM concentration. This spermine effect appears to be similar to the previous report on the PLD activation of rat brain mitochondrial fraction. It was also found that cationic polypetides such as polylysine and polyhistidine exerted a marked enhancement effect on the cabbage PLD. Particularly polyhistidine exerted approximately 5.5 fold enhancement effect at 0.062 mM concentration. The polyamine effect on the cabbage PLD was reexamined in the phosphatidylcholine/sodium dodecyl sulfate mixed micellar system. The relevance of polyamine effect on PLD activity is discussed in relation to the active site of PLD.

A new series of hydrazone derivatives were synthesized from 4-(2-chloroethyl)semicarbazide and their antiproliferative activity against human brain (U251) and liver (Hepg2) carcinoma cell lines were evaluated. The hydrazone compounds are benzaldehyde (2a-2g), acetophenone (3a-3f), and 3-formylindole derivatives (4a-4d). Among the acetophenone derivatives, 3e (p-methoxy substituted) and 3f (p-nitro substituted) showed the highest cytotoxic activity against Hepg2 cell line (I$C_{50}$ = 6 and 8 $\mu$g/ml, respectively). Among the 3-formylindole derivatives, 4a (hydrazone of 3-formylindole itself) showed a pronounced cytotoxic activity against both U251 (I$C_{50}$ = 21 $\mu$g/ml) and Hepg2 (I$C_{50}$ = 7 $\mu$g/ml).
