Purpose: Recently, chemosensitivity tests have become widely used for the selection of effective drugs in gastric cancer patients. In this study, a chemosensitivity test was performed to select agents to increase the effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy. Materials and Methods: Chemosensitivity testing was performed in 81 gastric cancer patients that received a gastrectomy at the Yeungnam University Hospital. An ATP (adenosine triphosphate) based chemotherapy response assay was used. Clinicopatholgical factors such as sex, age, expression of tumor markers (CEA and CA19-9 levels), location of the tumor, morphology of advanced cancer, histological type, cell differentiation, depth of invasion, Lauren classification, Ming classification, lymphatic invasion, vascular invasion, neural invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage were used to correlate the chemosensitivity and clinicopathological factors. Results: The most effective antitumor agents in gastric cancer patients were (in order of effectiveness) 5-FU, Epirubicin, lrinotecan and Oxaliplatin in our series. The chemosensitivity test showed a significant difference in susceptibility according to clinicopathological factors. Conclusion: Further studies on multidrug therapy are needed to evaluate synergistic effects of drugs. Therefore, for effective chemotherapy, it is more efficacious to select a chemosensitive drug than continue to use the same drug regimen.

대전, 공주, 논산, 부여와 김해 등에서 병든 딸기, 토마토, 오이에서 총 992균주의 잿빛곰팡이병균을 분리하여 이들 균주로부터 dichlofluanid 저항성 5균주, 감수성 5균주를 임의로 선발하였다. 분리된 균의 dichlofluanid 저항성을 조사한 결과 105균주(10.6%)가 저항성이었다. 저항성균 균사의 최소 억제 농도(minimum inhibitory concentration)는 100~500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml 이상이었으나 감수성균은 10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml 미만이었다. Dichlofluanid 저항성의 안정성 조사를 위하여 35$^{\circ}C$고온 처리 및 계대 배양할 때 조사된 저항성 5균주 중 3균주는 저항성이 감소하거나 상실되었다. 저온 저장 및 온실에 장기 보관할 때는 조사된 저항성 균주 모두가 저항성이 감소하거나 완전히 상실되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 이 약제에 대한 저항성이 불안정하다는 것을 나타낸다. 오이에 감수성균 및 저항성균을 혼합 접종한 후 재분리할 때 시간이 지날수록 감수성균이 더 많이 분리되어 저항성균의 경합 능력이 감수성 균주에 비하여 열등하였다.

에스트로젠을 처리한 송사리의 간으로부터 choriogenin vitellogenin estrogen receptor의 발현량을 전사수준에서 Real-time을 사용하여 정량.비교하였다. 시험어종으로는 부화 후 5개월 이상된 성숙한 수컷 송사리(Oryzias latipes)를(체중 약 250mg/마리)를 사용하여 17$\beta$-estradiol(25ppt, 50ppt, 100ppt)에 24시간 노출시켰다. Fluorescence dye는 choriogenin vitellogenin estrogen receptor의 경우 FAM (6-carboxyfluorescein)을 사용하였으며, $\beta$-actin의 경우는 VIC를 사용하였다. 프로브에 사용하는 quencher dye는 TAMRA(6-carboxy-N',N',N',N'-tetramethyl rhodamine)을 사용하였다. Internal control로 사용된 $\beta$-actin은 17$\beta$-estradiol의 농도에 상관 없이 0~10pM 범위에서 일정하게 발현됨을 보여주었다. vitellogenin choriogenin L 및 choriogenin H는 17$\beta$-estradiol의 농도에 의존하여 발현이 증가되는 용량-반응양상(Dose-dependent)을 나타내었다. 반면, estrogen receptor는 모든 처리군에서 $10^{-2}$pM 정도로 발혐됨에 따라 본 시험농도의 17$\beta$-estradiol에 의해서는 거의 유도발현이 되지 않음을 보여주었다. choriogenin L, choriogenin H, vitellogenin I 및 estrogen receptor 발현감수성을 비교한 결과, 25ppt 및 50ppt의 17$\beta$-esoadiol 농도에서는 ChgL > ChgH > VTG I >ER의 순으로 감수성이 높았으며, 100ppt 노출에서는 ChgL > VTG I > Chg H > ER의 순으로 감수성이 높게 나타났다. 결론적으로 choriogenin이 에스트로젠물질에 의한 가장 민감한 생체지표임을 알 수 있었다.

조리가공 중 생성되는 주요 발암성 이환방향족아민(heterocyclic aromatic amine)인 Trp-P-1 및 Trp-P-2가 human 및 rat keratinocytes에 대해 나타내는 세포 독성을 colony expansion법의 의해 조사, 비교하였다. 특히 Trp-P-2는 human keratinocytes에 대해서는 독성을 나타내지 않은데 반해 rat keratinocytes(계대수 2-5)에 대해서는 독성을 나타내는 선택성을 나타내었다. 이러한 Trp-P-2의 종(species)간 독성감수성 차이가 대사 효소계 활성이나 mutagenic activation상의 차이에 기인되는지를 살펴본 결과, CYP4501As 및 독성감수성 차이가 크게 나타났던 human 및 rat keratinocytes의 microsome에서 거의 같았다. 이와 같은 결과는 CYP4501A1 및 CYP1B1의 mRNA의 발현정도를 northernblot에 의해 살펴보았던 결과에서도 일치하였다. 반면 Trp-P-2의 대사활성화 및 해독화에 관여하는 효소인 N.O-acetyltransferase(NAT)활성은 rat keratinocytes보다 human keratinocytes에서 높았다. 일반적으로 독성물질의 해독화에 관여하는 glutathione S-transferase(GST) 또한 rat keratinocytes보다 human keratinocytes에서 높게 나타났다. Trp-P-2가 mutagenic metabolite로 활성화되는 정도를 salmonella microsome microsuspension assay로 살펴본 결과, 독성 감수성 차이가 크게 나타났던 human 및 rat keratinocytes간의 활성은 비슷한 것으로 나타났다. DNA 및 단백질 adduct형성능의 경우, human 및 rat keratinocytes간 DNA adduct형성능에는 차이가 없었고, 단백질 adduct형성능의 경우만 Trp-P-2에 대한 독성감수성 정도가 컸던 rat keratinocytes가 다른 세포들에 비해 크게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, CYP1A- 또는 CYP1B1-관련 마이크로솜 효소활성이나 mutagenic activation은 human 및 rat keratinocytes간에 나타났던 독성 감수성의 차이를 설명할 수 없으며, 해독화에 관여하는 효소활성이 종간 관찰되었던 독성 감수성의 차이에 더 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 보인다.

Experiment was conducted to select the rice varieties and lines resistant to the smaller brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus Fallen, and study the cause of varietal resistance to the insect. The nature of varietal resistance was evaluated from the viewpoints of feeding and ovipositional preferences and antibiosis. Among the IRRI sources the varieties H 105, Muthumanikam, Vellailangalayan, Karsamba Red ASD-7. Manavari Co 22, Mudgo, PTB-18, IR 8 and IR 20 were selected as resistant sources. Among the domestic sources. only Suweon 213-1, Suweon 214 and Suweon 215 originated from the IR667 lines were resistant, and other leading varieties ail susceptible. The cause of resistance of rice to the insect seemed to be highly related with the non-feeding preference, not non-ovipositional preference. Nymphal mortality and rate of adult emergence were significantly different from the resistant and susceptible varieties. The rate of adult emergence was significantly lower in the resistant than In the susceptible varieties. The primary cause of lower adult emergence seemed to be due to the fact that the infects were suffered higher nymphal mortality in the resistant than in the susceptible varieties.

Differences in susceptibility of several organophosphate, carbamate and pyrethroid insecticides to three species of aphids were determined by leaf-dipping and spray methods. The insects tested were the apterous adults of the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae), cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii) and soybean aphid (Aphis glycines). The comparison of $LC_{50}$ levels was indicated as follows; (1) The susceptibility to insecticides tested were greatly varied with the test methods. (2) The leaf dipping method is more recommendable than the spray method for insecticide screening with aphids. It was easier, more accurate and less variable than the latter. (3) The susceptibility to insecticides was greatly varied between the aphid species. Soybean aphid was more susceptible to the insecticides than green peach aphid and cotton aphid. Exceptionally, pirimicarb was not effective on the cotton aphid.

In vitro antifungal susceptibility test was carried out on 53 strains of Candida spp isolated from milk of dairy cows with subclinical mastitis and teat cups of milking machines, Nystatin, clotrimazole, miconazole, econazole, 5-fluorocytosine, cycloheximide, haloprogin and griseofulvin were tested by the agar dilution method. The 84.8% to 98.2% of Candida strains were inhibited by clotrimazole, econazole and miconazole at $${\leq_-}25{\mu}g/ml$$, and clotrimazole was most active. Interspecies differences of antifungal susceptibility were recognized and these were as follows. C albicans was most sensitive to clotrimazole (GM-MIC, $5.49{\mu}g/ml$) followed by 5-fluorocytosine, econazole and miconazole. C pseudotropicalis and C guilliermondii were notably sensitive to haloprogin, clotrimazole, miconazole, cconazole, 5-fluorocytosine, and haloprogin (GM-MIC, $0.17{\sim}0.19{\mu}g/ml$) was most active. C krusei was most sensitive to cycloheximide (GM-MIC, $0.54{\mu}g/ml$) followed by clotrimazole, haloprogin, miconazole and econazole. C parapsilosis was somewhat sensitive to econazole, cycloheximide, clotrimazole, and econazole (GM-MIC, $7.26{\mu}g/ml$) was most active. C tropicalis showed very low sensitivity to all tested drugs (GM-MIC, $${\geq_-}20.32{\mu}g/ml$$).

This cross-sectional study examined the differences of the human rights sensitivity changes between freshmen and seniors of nursing and non-nursing Students. The data for this study were collected using a human rights sensitivity questionnaire developed by Moon answered by 178 nursing and non-nursing students from five South Korean universities. A t-test, chi-square test were performed on the collected data. There were no significant differences in the human rights sensitivity scores between freshmen and seniors in nursing and non-nursing students. There were significant differences in the human rights sensitivity scores in the right to privacy of the psychiatric patients and the environmental rights among nursing students. There were significant differences in the human rights sensitivity scores in the disabled person's physical liberty in non-nursing students. The results of this study suggested the direction of educational curriculum revision about ethics and development of educational programs to improve the human rights sensitivity.
