There are numerous drug interactions related to many psychotropic and cardiovascular medications. Firstly, the principles in predicting drug interactions are discussed. Cytochrome P (CYP) 450 plays a significant role in the metabolism of these drugs that are substrates, inhibitors, or inducers of CYP450 enzymes. The two most significant enzymes are CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. The ability of psychotropic drugs to act as inhibitors for the enzymes may lead to altered efficacy or toxicity of co-administered cardiovascular agents as a substrate for the enzymes. The following is also a review of the known interactions between many commonly prescribed cardiovascular agents and psychotropic drugs. Most beta blockers are metabolized by CYP2D6, which may lead to drug toxicity when they use in combination with potent CYP2D6 inhibitors including bupropion, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and quinidine. Concomitant administration of lithium with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and diuretics may increase serum lithium concentrations and toxicity. Calcium channel blockers and cholesterol lowering agents are subject to interactions with potent inhibitors of CYP3A4, such as amiodarone, diltiazem, fluvoxamine, nefazodone, and verapamil. Prescribing antiarrhythmic drugs in conjunction with medications are known to prolong QT interval and/or inhibitors on a relevant CYP450 enzyme is generally not recommended, or needs watchful monitoring. Digoxin and warfarin also have warrant careful monitoring if co-administered with psychotropic drugs.

중금속이 양서류의 발생에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 Xenopus embryo 2 할구기부터 카드뮴, 수은, 납. 구리, 아연 등을 여러 농도로 지속적으로 처리한 후 치사율과 이상 발생율을 조사하였다 그 결과 수은, 카드뮴. 구리, 납. 아연의 순으로 독성이 강함을 알 수 있다. 중금속 중 카드뮴 처리시 나타나는 현상으로는 창자, 눈, 체축. 지느러미, 십장 등의 이상과 수포 등을 들 수 있다. FETAX (frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay : Xenopus)의 분석 결과 LC$_{100}$ 은 1.5 ppm, EC$_{100}$은 1PPm 이었고 기형 유발지수(TI)가 2. 8 인 점으로 보아 카드뮴을 Xenopus embryo에 있어서 기형유발원으로 분류할 수 있다.

폐렴균(Streptococcus pneuminiae)은 그람양성균으로 병원성을 갖는 것은 협막을 갖는 S type이며 협박다당류의 항원성에 의해 84가지의 serotype으로 분류되어 있다. 미국에서는 이중 23가지 type이 폐렴환자의 90%이상에서 발견되는 것을 최근 보고하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 polyvalent vaccine을 구성하는 23가지 type의 폐럼균주로부터 협막다당류를 분리, 정제하고 각 성분함량이 각 type에 대한 vaccine기준 함량에 적합한지 여부를 판정함으로써 한국형 vaccine개발의 기초로 활용하고자 한다.

Drug repositioning is to discover new uses of drugs. Text mining derives knowledge from unstructured text. We propose a method to predict new drug-disease relationships by taking into account the rate of frequency of genes simultaneously measured in disease-gene and gene-drug. Co-occurrence of drug-gene and gene-disease in the biological literature is counted and calculate the rate of the gene for each drug and disease. Weights of drug-disease relationships are calculated using the average of the rates of genes that are measured and used to measure the accuracy for each disease. In measuring drug-disease relationships, a more accurate identification of relationships was shown by measuring the frequency on a sentence and considering multiple relationships than existing method.

ADESS(Adverse drug event surveillance system) is the system which distinguishes adverse drug events using adverse drug signals. This system shows superior effectiveness in adverse drug surveillance than current methods such as volunteer reporting or char review. In this study, we built clinical data mart(CDM) for the development of ADESS. This CDM could obtain data reliability by applying data quality management and the most suitable clustering number(n=4) was gained through the reproducibility assessment in unsupervised learning techniques of knowledge discovery. As the result of analysis, by applying the clustering number(N=4) K-means, Kohonen, and two-step clustering models were produced and we confirmed that the K-means algorithm makes the most closest clustering to the result of adverse drug events.

Four strains of water mold, ChS-E0511, RaT-E0511, RaT-A0512 and MaS-F0512, were isolated from salmonid fish and/or their eggs taken from culture farms in Yangyang, Milyang and Pyeongchang, Korea in 2005. Descriptions of their morphological aspects, the results of the phylogenetic analysis conducted, and the sequence of the small sub-unit 18S rRNAs of the isolates confirmed that they all belong to the species Saprolegnia parasitica. Only one species, ChS-E0511, which was isolated from fertilized eggs of the chum salmon, was classified as part of the S. parasiticaGroup 1 according to its oogonia and gemmae production. The chemotherapeutic effects of various chemicals on the ChS-E0511 strain were assessed from the inhibitory effects of growth in GY media and the relative ratio of eyed eggs to fertilized eggs of the rainbow trout. Malchite green, a prohibited substance in food animals, was better than others, such as the Opuntia ficus-indicaextract, 2-bronopol, and sodium chloride. These results suggest that the fungi isolated from salmonids and/or their eggs identified as S. parasitica were composed of more than two groups. These isolates will be useful in an intensive evaluation of therapeutic agents.

In order to extract and analyze complex features of the behavior of animals in response to external stimuli such as toxic chemicals, we implemented an adaptive computational method to characterize changes in the behavior of chironomids in response to treatment with the insecticide, diazinon. In this paper, we propose an energy minimization model to extract the features of response behavior of chironomids under toxic treatment, which is applied on the image of velocity vectors. It is based on the improved active contour model and the variations of the energy functional, which are produced by the evolving active contour. The movement tracks of individual chironomid larvae were continuously measured in 0.25 second intervals during the survey period of 4 days before and after the treatment. Velocity on each sample track at 0.25 second intervals was collected in 15-20 minute periods and was subsequently checked to effectively reveal behavioral states of the specimens tested. Active contour was formed around each collection of velocities to gradually evolve to find the optimal boundaries of velocity collections through processes of energy minimization. The active contour which is improved by T. Chan and L. Vese is used in this paper. The energy minimization model effectively revealed characteristic patterns of behavior for the treatment versus no treatment, and identified changes in behavioral states .is the time progressed.

목적: 이 연구의 목적은 한국인 성인 환자를 대상으로 아미카신 1일 1회 요법을 시행하였을 때의 약동학적 파라미터를 평가하고, 신기능에 따른 아미카신의 약동학적 파라미터를 비교함으로써 최적의 개인화 약물요법을 설계할 수 있도록 하는 것이다. 방법: 그람 음성균 감염에 대해 1일 1회 요법으로 아미카신을 투여 받았던 353명의 한국 성인 환자를 대상으로 항정상태에서 아미카신의 농도를 2회(약물 투여 전 1시간 이내, 약물투여 종료 후 0.5~1시간 이내) 측정하였다. 각 환자의 약동학적 파라미터(분포용적, 청소율, 반감기) 및 혈중 최고 농도, 최저 농도는 환자의 나이, 체중, 신장, 성별, 혈중 크레아티닌 농도, 투여된 약물용량, 측정된 약물의 혈중농도, 감염의 종류 등을 감안하여 산출하였다. 크레아티닌 청소율에 따라 환자를 4군으로 분류하여 아미카신의 약동학적 파라미터를 비교분석하였다. 결과: 본 연구에서 아미카신 혈중 최저, 최고 농도의 평균 ${\pm}$ 표준편차는 각각 $1.14{\pm}1.95mg/L$, $26.35{\pm}9.28mg/L$이며, 청소율, 분포용적 및 반감기의 평균 ${\pm}$ 표준편차는 각각 $55.40{\pm}23.72mL/hr/kg$, $0.35{\pm}0.12L/kg$, 그리고 $5.22{\pm}3.34hrs$로 산출되었다. 크레아티닌 청소율에 따른 아미카신의 청소율, 분포용적 및 반감기의 유의한 차이가 관찰되었다. 종합적으로 아미카신의 혈중 최저 농도는 크레아티닌 청소율이 40 mL/min 미만인 경우 40 mL/min 이상인 경우에 비해 유의하게 증가하였다. 결론: 아미카신의 약동학적 파라미터들은 신기능에 따라 유의한 차이가 있으므로 최적의 치료효과를 위해서는 환자의 크레아티닌 청소율에 따른 개인화 약물요법이 필요하다.
