만성 폐쇄성 폐질환(COPD)은 하부 기도 즉 말초기도의 지속적인 미만성 폐쇄로 인하여 불가역성 기류폐쇄를 나타내는 질환을 말하며, 임상적으로 만성 기관지염과 폐기종으로 분류할 수 있으나, 이들은 기능적으로나 병리적으로 서로 중첩되어 임상적으로 명확하게 구별할 수 없기 때문에 만성적, 비특이적으로 진행하는 기류폐쇄의 포괄적인 용어로 COPD를 사용한다. COPD의 특징적인 병리변화는 소기도 즉 막성 세기관지염과 호흡세기관지염이며, 호흡세기관지염을 동반하는 폐기종의 중증도가 기류폐쇄의 정도를 결정하는 중요한 인자로 작용한다.

Radiation myelitis is a rather rare, but irreversible fatal complication. Etiology, pathologic change, clinical symptoms and the method of diagnosis have been studied with animal experiments and human necropsies. In spite of massive studies, pathogenesis of post-irradiation myelitis and the level of tolerance dose still remain controversial. Thoracolumbar spine of 110 hybrid mice were irradiated with orthovoltage x-ray machine. Mild capillary congestion and axonal swelling were observed in 1,000 rad irradiated specimens. Focal necrosis in 3,500 rad specimens, fragmentation of neural tissue in 4,000 rad specimens were also observed. These results suggest that 5,000 rad is not a completely safe tolerable dose which have been accepted and we cannot exclude direct radiation damage to news tissue as the causative pathology of radiation myelitis in addition to blood vessel damage.

The purpose of this study is how to occur the temporality in Digital Gameplay. There is two types of time in Gameplay. One is Irreversibility time that goes passed through a game world like a chronology order. Another is Reversibility time that returns and renews the time. The time's duality is caused by player's intervene and experience. And the polychronic temporality in gameplay makes the rhythm as replay and eternal cyclic time.

단백질과 전이금속 이온들과의 상호작용을 연구하는데 있어서 단백질중의 이미다졸기 및 아미노산의 반응성은 중요하다. Cd(II)-2-메틸이미다졸 착물들의 경우 이미다졸 분자중의 결합측은 "피로올"형 보다 오히려 "피리딘" 질소임을 알 수 있다. 이 착물들의 환원파는 가역적이며 2전자반응으로 나타난다. 그리고 이미다졸 존재하의 Ni(II) 이온은 촉매파를 나타내며 Ni(II) 이온만의 환원파는 불가역성인 것에 비해 가역성을 보여주었다. 또한 그 반파전위는 Ni(II) 이온만의 반파전위보다 수백 mV 양전위로 이동된다. 이러한 성질은 전극 반응에 관여한 주물질이 전극 표면에서 흡착되어 환원되기 때문이다. 이미다졸 농도의 대수값에 대해 반파전위를 도시했을 때 그 기울기가 30mV로써 이론치와 일치한다. 한편 $Cd(II)-2CH_{3}Im$의 단계적 생성항수 $pK_{1},pK_{2},pK_{3},pK_{4}$는 각각 2.68, 4.01, 4.90, 5.36이었다.4.01, 4.90, 5.36이었다.

Intangibility, measurement difficulty and irreversibility, which are the characteristics of service, have such problems as obscurity and uncertainty in quality evaluation. Technical entrepreneurship education, a sort of public service, also contains such characteristics of service. To objectively evaluate the service quality of technical entrepreneurship education, this paper drew up factors as hierarchical structure, centered on FAHP technique, and conducted pre-processing, inputted those factors into triangular fuzzy number fuzzy judgement matrix, and calculated their weights. In this manner, this paper proposed a TESE system, through which an analysis can be conducted by drawing relative importance and priorities of the factors. The proposed system can efficiently evaluate the qualitative technical start-up education service quality factors quantitatively in the diversely changing technical start-up environment in view of the highest result quality (41%), which means performance in the relative importance of major factors. Namely, this paper confirmed that clear decision making can be made through an experiment.

Our genome exists in the form of chromatin, and its structural organization should be precisely regulated with an appropriate dynamic nature for life. The basic unit of chromatin is a nucleosome, which consists of a histone octamer. These nucleosomal histones are subject to various covalent modifications, one of which is methylation on certain lysine residues. Recent studies in histone biology identified many histone Iysine methyltransferases (HKMTs) responsible for respective lysine residues and uncovered various kinds of involved chromatin associating proteins and many related epigenetic phenotypes. With the aid of highly precise experimental tools, multi-disciplinary approaches have widened our understanding of how lysine methylation functions in diverse epigenetic processes though detailed mechanisms remain elusive. Still being considered as a relatively more stable mark than other modifications, the recent discovery of lysine demethylases will confer more flexibility on epigenetic memory transmitted through histone lysine methylation. In this review, advances that have been recently observed in epigenetic phenotypes related with histone lysine methylation and the enzymes for depositing and removing the methyl mark are provided.

In order to assess the effects of radiofrequency-induced local hyperthermia on the normal liver, histopathologic findings and biochemical changes after localized hyperthermia in canine liver were studied. Hyperthermia was externally adminsitered using the Thermotron RF-8 (Yamamoto Vinyter Co., Japan; Capacitive type heating machine) with parallel opposed electrodes. Thirteen dogs were used and allocated into one control group (N=3) and two treatment groups according to the treatment temperature. Group I (N=5) was heated with $42.5\pm0.5^{\circ}C$ 30 minutes, and Group II (N=5) was heated with $45\pm0.5^{\circ}C$ for 15-30 minutes. Samples of liver tissue were obtained through a needle biopsy immediately after hyperthermia and T,14, and 28 days after treatment. Blood samples were obtained before treatment and W, 3,5, 7,14 and 28 days after treatment and examined for SGOT, SGPT and alkaline phosphatase. Although SGOT and SGPT were elevated after hyperthermia in both groups (three of five in each group), there was no liver cell necrosis or hyperthermia related mortality in Group 1. A hydropic swelling of hepatocytes was prominent histologic finding. Hyperthermia with $45^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes was fatal and showed extensive liver cell necrosis. In conclusion, liverdamage dy heat of $42.5\pm0.5^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes is reversible, and liver damage by heat of $45\pm0.5^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes can be fatal or irreversible. However, these results cannot be applied directly to human trial. Therefore, in erder to apply hyperthermic treatment on human liver tumor safely, close obsewation of temperature with proper thermometry is mandatory. Hyperthermic treatment should be confined to the tumor area while sparing a normal liver as much as possible.

To ascertain the existence of various adrenoceptors involved in active transport of sodium in the frog skin and to delineate their physiological roles, the influence of various adrenergic agonists and antagonists on the potential difference (PD), short-circuit current (SCC) and total skin conductance (TSC) of the isolated frog skin of Rana nigromaculata were investigated. PD and SCC were determined with Ussing's technique. Drugs were administered to the serosal side of the skin. Experimental results were summarized as follows: 1. The responses to norepinephrine (NE, $6{\times}10^{-8}-6{\times}10^{-5})M$), phenylephrine (PE, $5{\times}10^{-6}-5{\times}10^{-4}M$) and epinephrine (Epi, $5.5{\times}10^{-7}-5.5{\times}10^{-5}M$) were characterized by marked elevation of PD & SCC in dose-related fashion, but the maximal effect attained by Epi was less than those of NE and PE. 2. These increments of PD & SCC were significantly inhibited by prazosin $(2{\times}10^{-6}M)$, a speciflc ${\alpha}_1$-adrenoceptor blocker. The stimulatory effect on PD & SCC were completely abolished by phenoxybenzamine (PBZ, $3.3{\times}10^{-5}M$), an irreversible ${\alpha}$-adrenoceptor blocking agent. Furthermore, with a larger doses of Epi produced marked decline of PD & SCC after the PBZ pretreatment. 3. Isoproterenol (ISP), a ${\beta}$-adrenoceptor agonist, in concentrations ranging from $5{\times}10^{-7}$ to $5{\times}10^{-6}M$ produced dose-related decrease in PD & SCC, which could be abolished by pretreatment with propranolol $(4{\times}10^{-6}M)$, a specific ${\beta}$-adrenoceptor blocker. It was further noted that the effects of Epi on PD & SCC were markedly potentiated by Propranolol pretreatment. 4. Clonidine as well as guanabenz produced increases in PD & SCC and these effects were inhibited more specifically by prazosin pretreatment than by yohimbine. These results indicated that there exist in the frog skin two distinctive types of adrenoceptors, ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$, which roughly corresponds to those in mammals, and that the ${\alpha}$ type of adrenoceptors mediate the stimulation of PD & SCC, whereas ${\beta}$-adrenoceptors mediate the inhibition. However, based on evidence at hand, no conclusion could be drawn on the subtype of ${\alpha}$-adrenoceptors which is involved in the stimulation of sodium transport in the frog skin.

MnTe layers of high crystalline quality were successfully grown on Si(100) : B and Si(111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Under tellurium-rich condition and the substrate temperature around $400^{\circ}C$, a layer thickness of $700{\AA}$ could be easily obtained with the growth rate of $1.1 {\AA}/s$. We investigated the structural, magnetic and transport properties of MnTe layers by using x-ray diffraction (XRD), superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry, and physical properties measurement system (PPMS). Characterization of MnTe layers on Si(100) : B and Si(111) substrates by XRD revealed a hexagonal structure of polycrystals with lattice parameters, ${\alpha}=4.143{\pm}0.001{\AA}\;and\;c=6.707{\pm}0.001{\AA}$. Investigation of magnetic and transport properties of MnTe films showed anomalies unlike antiferromagnetic powder MnTe. The temperature dependence of the magnetization data taken in zero-field-tooling (ZFC) and field-cooling (FC) conditions indicates three magnetic transitions at around 21, 49, and 210 K as well as the great irreversibility between ZFC and FC magnetization in the films. These anomalies are attributable to a magnetic-elastic coupling in the films. Magnetization measurements indicate ferromagnetic behaviour with hysteresis loops at 5 and 300 K for MnTe polycrystalline film. The coercivity ($H_c$) values at 5 and 300 K are 55 and 44 Oe, respectively. In electro-transport measurements, the temperature dependence of resistivity revealed a noticeable semiconducting behaviours and showed conduction via Mott variable range hopping at low temperatures.
