Nonspecific suppressions of the immune responses have been reported to occur in the cancer-bearing patients. The mechanisms responsible for these immunosuppressions remain unclear but some investigators suggested that the immunosuppressions may result from immunosuppressive factors exudated from tumor masses. This study was undertaken to evaluate the in vivo effects of ascitic and pleural fluids from patients with cancers metastatic to peritoneum or pleura on the immune responses of mice. Non-cancerous ascitic and pleural effusions were used as controls. The ascitic fluids from hepatomap atients and pleural fluids from pulmonary carcinoma patients decreased both the delayed-type hypersensitivity and the antibody formation only when these were injected before antigenic stimulation. Control effusions exerted no effect on the immune responses to mice. These results suggested that cancerous fluids suppressed the immune responses by affecting the afferent arc of the immune system.

새로이 합성된 1,4-Naphthoquinone(1,4-NQ) 화합물의 세포독성의 확인과 그 작용기전을 규명코져 본 실험을 수행하였다. 분리된 흰쥐 간세포를 1,4-NQ유도체들과 반응 시켰을때 이들 중 YC 001과 YC 008은 독성을 나타냈으나 YC 012는 독성율 나타내지 아니하였다. 세포독성은 세포치사, lactate dehydrogenase 유출 및 산소소비의 억제등으로 확인하였다. 세포 독성의 기전은 mitochondria에서의 전자흐름 차단작용과 microsome에서 redox-cycling 기전에 의한 산소리디칼 생성의 두가지에 대하여 검토하였다. 분리된 mitochondria를 YC 001과 YC 008은 반응 시켰을때 mitochondria의 호흡은 완전히 억제되었다. 그러나 YC 012는 전혀 작용을 나타내지 아니하였다. 이는 간세포에 대한 독성작용과 일치하는 결과이며 따라서 mitochondria에 대한 억제 작용은 이들의 세포독성에 주요한 요인이라고 추측되었다.

Interactions between pyridine hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) and m-cresol hydrodeoxygenation(HDO), and the kinetic analysis were studied over sulfided $CoMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst at the range of temperatures between 473 K and 723 K, the total pressures between $10{\times}10^5Pa$ and $50{\times}10^5Pa$, and the contact times between 0.0125 g-cat. hr/ml-feed and 0.03g-cat. hr/ml-feed. HDN of pyridine and HDO of m-cresol were inhibited by each other and the inhibition effect of HDO by pyridine is higher than that of HDN by m-cresol. But reactivity of m-cresol is higher than that of pyridine. The rate equations of pyridine and m-cresol were given to be ${\gamma}_{HDN}=k_{HDN}{\cdot}K_pC_p/(1+K_cC_c+K_pC_p)$ and ${\gamma}_{HDO}=k_{HDO}{\cdot}K_cC_c/(1+K_cC_c+K_pC_p)$ in terms of Langmuir-Hinshellwood-Hougen-Watson model. At each temperature, reaction rate constants and adsorption equilibrium constants were determined and activation energies of pyridine HDN and m-cresol HDO are 13.83kcal/mol, respectively and the heat of adsorption are -6.458 and -5.045kcal/mol, respectively.

본 연구는 사건관련전위를 이용하여 정신병질자들이 정서인식에 따른 반응억제의 어려움이 있는지를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 교도소에 수용 중인 수형자들을 대상으로 PCL-R(Psychopathy Checklist-Revised)의 점수에 따라 6명의 정신병질 수형자집단과 4명의 정상 수형자집단을 선별하고, 얼굴자극을 이용한 시각 Go/NoGo 과제를 실시하였다. 모든 피험자들은 Go 자극에 버튼을 누르고 NoGo 자극에 버튼을 누르지 않도록 지시를 받았으며, 과제를 실시하는 동안 사건관련전위를 측정하였다. 과제 1에서는 공포표정을 NoGo자극으로 사용하고 중성표정을 Go자극으로 사용하였으며, 과제 2에서는 슬픈 표정을 NoGo자극으로 사용하고 중성표정을 Go자극으로 사용하였다. 정신병질 수형자집단은 공포표정의 NoGo P3 진폭이 중성표정의 Go P3 진폭보다 크게 나타난 반면에 정상 수형자집단은 공포표정과 중성표정 간의 P3 요인의 진폭이 유사하거나 공포표정의 NoGo P3 진폭보다 중성표정의 Go P3 진폭이 더 크게 나타났다. P3 잠재기를 분석한 결과, 정신병질 수형자집단은 슬픔 표정자극의 NoGo조건에서 중성표정자극의 Go조건보다 느린 P3 잠재기를 나타낸 반면, 정상 수형자집단은 NoGo조건에서 Go조건보다 빠른 P3 잠재기를 나타냈다. 정서인식검사결과, 정신병질 수형자집단은 정상 수형자 집단보다 유의미하게 낮은 정확도를 나타냈다. 이러한 결과는 정신병질자들이 공포, 슬픔과 같은 부정적인 정서를 인식한 후에 반응을 억제하는데 인지적인 어려움을 겪는다는 것을 보여준다.

Corrosion is a complex series of oxidation/reduction reactions between at the water-metal surfaces and materials in which the water is stored or transported. With respect to the corrosion potential of drinking water, the primary concerns include the potential presence of toxic metals, such as lead and copper; deterioration and damage to the household plumbing, and aesthetic problems such as stained laundry, and bitter taste. This study was performed to evaluate the effects of corrosion inhibitors on corrosion rates, Fe and Cu release concentration in water distribution pipes. Decrease of corrosion rates were strongly related to phosphate corrosion inhibitors. Considering that typical corrosion processes consists of a series of electrochemical reaction at the metal surface in contact with water, corrosion rates were positively correlated with Fe release.

The methods for improving epichlorohydrin process was investigated by carrying out experiments on hypochlorination reaction, from which dichlorohydrin is produced by reacting with allyl chloride and chlorine. As the recycle water from PVC plant was used instead of industrial water for reaction, the effect of recycle water on the reaction yield was studied. It was shown from this experiment that the recycle water rarely affected on the ratio between products. TCPA, which was almost of byproducts, could be removed before purification process using "extractant A". This could prevent additional side reaction by TCPA and reduced energy to separate it in purification part. The change of product yield was observed as the chlorine gas addition decreases which reacted with allyl chloride. It seems that the yield of major products didn't change almost, but the byproducts showed rather reduced trend with decreasing chlorine gas.

ABO incompatible allografting is contraindicated in most organ transplantations including heart because of the hyperacute and acute rejections caused by preexisting antibodies. However several reports showed that ABO incompatible organ transplantation could be managed successfully by plasmapheresis, antibody adsorption, immunosuppression, splenectomy, and so on. We experienced one success in ABO incompatible cardiac transplantation by means of plasmapheresis and immunosuppression. However, this does not justify heart transplantation across ABO blood group barriers. Because the effect of ABO incompatibility on continued acute rejection or chronic rejection has not been fully understood, long-term follow-up study is required.

Dopants implanted in silicon substrate affect the reaction between cobalt and silicon substrate. Phosphorous, unlike boron and arsenic, suppressing the reaction between cobalt and silicon induces CoSi formation during a low temperature thermal treatment instead of CoSi₂formation. The CoSi layer should move to the silicon substrate to fill the vacant volume that is generated in the silicon substrate due to the silicon out-diffusion into the cobalt/CoSi interface. The movement of CoSi at gate sidewall spacer region is suppressed by a cohesion between gate oxide and CoSi layers, resulting in a void formation at the gate sidewall spacer edge.

Catalase 억제제로 알려져 있는 AT가 Pn에 중독된 생쥐 생존율을 유의하게 감소시켰다. 생쥐의 간장 폐 및 신장에서 catalase 활성도가 현저히 감소되었으며, PQ와 AT 병합투여군에서 Catalase 활성은 PQ 단독투여 군에 비하여 유의한 감소를 나타냈으나 glutathione량과 SOD 활성은 PQ 단독투여군과 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 또한 광학현미경 검색상 PQ 단독투여 군에서 사구체와 요세관이 손상되었으나 AT의 병합투여군에서 사구체와 요세관의 손상이 더욱 증가됨을 보여주고 있다. 이상의 실험 결과로 PQ의 신독성이 AT 병합투여로 더욱 증가됨을 알 수 있는데 이러한 결과는 AT가 신장 Catalase를 억제하여 증가된 과산화수소에 의해 나타난 독성의 결과로 생각되며, 과산학수소는 Haber-Weiss 반응이나 trenton 반응 또는 paraquat radical과 직접 반응하여 hydroxvl radicals을 생성하므로 PQ 독성은 과산화수소의 생성과 관련이 있는 것으로 추정된다.

This study was carried out to determine factors affecting on the mass propagation of Rehmannia glutinosa seedlings in bioreactor culture. Air-lift type bioreactor was more compatible to shoot formation than stirrer type. Fifty grams(90 stem explants) of inoculum in 1.5L medium was placed into 2.5L bioreactor with aeration rate of 0.5 v.v.m., which was proper for effective shoot formation. Adding MES as pH buffer to culture medium increased the numbers of shoot formation. Adding 5g/l of anti-vitrifying agent into culture medium was highly effective for diminishing the rate of vitrification in shoots formed.
