  • 생명체 안에는 정맥혈과 동맥혈이라는 두 가지 종류의 혈액이 흐른다. 여기에는 신체 내 세 가지 기관이 관여하는데, 간은 영양과 성장의 임무를 심장은 생명의 원동력을 뇌는 인지와 이성을 담당한다. 영양과 성장은 간에서 형성되는 '정맥혈'을 통해 형성되고 생명의 원동력은 심장에서 형성되는 '동맥혈'을 통해 전신으로 퍼진다. 이 혈액들은 심장으로 다시 돌아오지 않고 온 몸에 퍼져 소비된다. 혈액은 심장이 이완될 때 심장 안으로 빨아들여진다. 심장은 혈액을 펌프질하는 기능이 없으며 동맥이 그 스스로가 '박동성'을 가지고 혈액을 밀어낸다. 좌심실에서 정맥혈과 프네우마(Pneuma)가 섞이게 되는데 심장 오른쪽 심실과 심방의 정맥혈은 좌심실과 우심실 사이 중격(심실중격, interventricularseptum)의 작은 구멍을 통해 좌심실로 이동한다.

  • 25만 여종에 달하는 지구상의 식물은 생물권의 무수한 환경변화 속에서 종을 유지할 수 있도록 다양한 유전적인 진화를 통하여 지구상에 정착하였다. 이들 식물이 생육하고 있는 기상환경은 매우 다양하며, 생장과정에서 수많은 환경변화를 시간적ㆍ공간적으로 경험하게 된다. 생육 환경이 변화하면 식물의 형능적, 생리적, 생합성적 특성이 변화하는 반응이 나타난다. (중략)

  • 사고에는 반드시 원인이 있게 마련이다. 비행사고의 원인중 인적요소가 대부분을 차지하고 있음을 상기할 때, 인적과실에 영향을 미치는 원인들을 분석하여 그에대한 대책을 마련한다면 비행사고 예방에 크게 도움이 될것이다. 본 고에서는 비행사고 원인중에서 조종사의 과실에 대하여 심리적, 생리적 측면을 중심으로 설문조사를 하였고, 그 결과를 토대로 비행사고 요인을 분석하였다. 앞으로 본고의 내용이 보완되어 비행사고 방지를 위한 참고자료로 활용될 수 있기를 바란다.

  • Deciduous teeth can be extracted for two reasons, one due to the physiologic resorption and the other by the inflammation at the apex after traumatic injury. Physiologic resorption may be different from pathologic resorption in timing and mechanism. Therefore we resumed the different features of physiologic and pathologic resorption root surfaces. Many previous studies showed micromorphology of resorbed surface of roots of deciduous teeth. But, few studies compared physiological and pathological root resorption surfaces. In this study, we carefully observed microscopic morphologies of those two different root surfaces by scanning electron microscope and histologic features by light microscope. The resultant differences between physiologic and pathologic resorption surfaces of deciduous teeth were as follows: 1. The morphology of pathologic resorption lacunae due to inflammation varied in size and shape with irregular boundaries compared with the physiologic areas from scanning electron microscope observations. 2. From light microscope observations, several large resorption fossae containing numerous resorption lacunae were found, whereas the resorption lacunae were irregular in shape with pathologic resorption surface. 3. Numerous multinucleated giant cells were closely attached to the physiologic resorption lacunae, whereas several kinds of mesenchymal cells with numerous inflammatory cells were found in the areas adjacent to the pathologic resorption surface. 4. Light microscope findings showed that compensating cementum formation took place along some of the areas of inflammatory dentinal resorption. In conclusion, several morphological differences were present between physiologic and pathologic root resorption surfaces of human deciduous teeth. The future studies should include cytochemistry to clarify the cellular roles in resorption process observations of pulpal surfaces of coronal and radicular dentin to and the changes that occur in each phase of human deciduous tooth resorption.

  • Atractylodes macrocephala (AM) and Amomum villosum (AV) are the most common herbs in Korean Medicine to treat digestive diseases. In this study, we investigated the cholesterol lowering effects of mixtures of AM and AV extracts on high cholesterol diet (HCD) induced dyslipidemia mouse model. We classified animals into six different groups; Group 1: Normal diet, Group 2: HCD, Group 3: AV extracts : AM extracts (1:1) (200 mg/kg) + HCD, Group 4: AV extracts : AM extracts (1:2) (200 mg/kg) + HCD, Group 5: AV extracts : AM extracts (1:3) (200 mg/kg) + HCD, Group 6: Simvastatin 40 mg/kg + HCD. After 4 weeks of oral administration of respective drugs, we checked body, liver and epididymal fatweights along with liver and serum triacylglyceride (TG) concentration, total and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in serum. Moreover, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase (HMGCR), LDL receptor (LDLR), and sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) were detected by RT PCR or western blot analysis. The overall results showed that mixtures of AM and AV extracts inhibited HCD-induced increases of total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in serum. Those effects seem to be caused by AM and AV extracts through inhibition of HMGCR expression. And thus blood cholesterol is induced into the liver by increasing LDLR expression, which is regulated by SREBP2 transcrption factor. The cholesterol lowering effects and mechanism of mixtures of AM and AV extracts was similar to the statin. We have identified the potential mixtures of AM and AV extracts as a new treatment for dyslipidemia.

  • One of central issues in the Literature and Science discourses during the Victorian era is the relation of physiology to psychology. Many thinkers tackle the question of whether or not psychic phenomena can be reducible to their physiological bases. For instance, Victorian physiologist William Benjamin Carpenter claims that there should be a boundary between physiological and psychological qualities. Yet, his contemporary writer Grant Allen contends for the reduction of psychology into physiology. In the essay, I discuss Grant Allen's work Physiological Aesthetics (1877) so as to eventually problematize his physiological reductionism. I especially highlight the paradox of his physiological aesthetics. In order to clarify my argument, I introduce two concepts: evolutionary aesthetics and physiological reductionism. On the one hand, Allen argues for the development of aesthetic appreciation. The gradual evolution from gaudy to serene colors, for instance, reflects the fine differentiation of sensory organs. He believes that the existence of varied aesthetic pleasures corresponds to the evolution of sensory nerve structures. Nonetheless, Allen ironically gives more weight to the commonality of aesthetic experiences than to this teleological ordering of aesthetic experiences. He argues that there is no fundamental difference among humans in terms of their aesthetic assessments. Furthermore, there is even no essential distinction among plants, animals, and humans in light of their aesthetic appraisals, he states firmly. Although he asserts the gradual advance of aesthetic feelings caused by the intricacy of nervous systems, he simultaneously trivializes the evolution of aesthetic appraisal. In the essay, I highlight this paradox in Allen's physiological aesthetics. It should be underscored, lamentably enough, that Allen seeks biological purity by erasing fine lines among physiology, psychology, and sociality. He estranges aesthetic experiences from subjective variations and their socio-cultural contexts. He makes great efforts to eliminate individual differences and socio-cultural specificities in order to extremely biologize aesthetic experiences. Hence, Allen's physiological aesthetics is marked as the politics of physiological purification.

  • Polydnavirus is a mutualistic DNA virus found in some braconid and ichneumonid wasps. Its genome is integrated into host chromosome as a provirus. Its replication occurs at ovarian calyx epithelium during host pupal stage to form episomal viral particles. The viral particles are delivered into hemocoel of the parasitized insect along with eggs during wasp oviposition. Several polydnaviral genomes, which are isolated from the episomal virus particles, have been sequenced and exhibit some gene families with speculative physiological functions. This review presents the viral characteristics in terms of Its parasitic physiology. For developing new insect pest control tactics, it also discusses several application strategies exploiting the viral genome to manipulate insect physiology.
