Hypocotyls explants of melon seedling were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium supplemented with 1 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.5 mg/L benzyl aminopurine (BA) for 6 weeks to produce somatic embryos. In somatic embryos produced through intervening bright yellow friable (BYF) from the explants, somatic embryos with two-cotyledon (26%) and horn-type cotyledon (74%) were observed. The procambial strand of cotyledons was originated from circular procambial tissues of lower hypocotyls. The circular procambial independently divided into two procambial strand at the edge of cotyledonary-node, and then connected to each cotyledon to form somatic embryos with two-cotyledon. When cotyledon was horn-type, the circular procambial strand in lower hypocotyls would continuously remain connected to the cotyledon. However, somatic embryos with two or horn type cotyledon formed an abnormal shoot apex without the tunica-corpus structure or dome shape in the inter-cotyledonary area. These results demonstrated that the variation of cotyledon in somatic embryos was closely related to procambial tissue differentiation and shoot apical formation.

This study was to performed to get the reference data of the kinematic parameters for normal subjects according to the arm movement type. Forty-five normal subjects participated in this study and preformed four sequence according to the arm movement type : normal arm movement, one arm movement, no arm movement, fitness arm movement. The study data was collected from June to August 2010. The kinematic data were measured using Vicon motion system 6MX3 cameras while each subjects walked through a 10m walkway. There were significant differences according arm movement type in the kinematic parameters such as range of motion (ROM) of the right pelvic, hip in sagittal plane, and ROM of the pelvic, hip, lumbar in coronal plane and ROM of the pelvic, thoracic, lumbar in transverse plane. This study can be utilized as the basic reference data in gait analysis for patients with pathologic gaits.

연구는 소방공무원 각 신체 부위별 근골격계질환 관련 자각증상과 질병 및 사고 결근과의 관련성을 알아보기 위하여 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 전국의 소방공무원 8,368명을 대상으로 온라인을 통한 자기기입식 설문 조사를 하였으며, 통계분석을 시도하였다. 그 결과 지난 1년간 질병 결근은 12.9%, 사고 결근은 5.9%가 경험한 것으로 나타났다. 질병 결근 및 사고 결근 모두 신체부위(목)과 신체부위(어깨)의 근골격계질환 관련 자각증상과 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 질병 결근의 경우 신체부위(목) 증상자의 20.9%, 신체부위(어깨) 증상자의 19.0%, 사고 결근의 경우 신체부위(목) 증상자의 12.1%, 신체부위(어깨) 증상자의 10.9%로 파악되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 소방공무원의 결근과 근골격계질환 관련 자각증상이 관련이 있음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 추후 질병 및 사고 결근 감소를 위하여 소방공무원의 근골격계질환에 대한 관리 및 건강관리 프로그램의 운영이 요구된다.

Crowding은 치열의 어느 곳에서나 발생하나 측철치와 견치 사이에서 가장 많이 발생하고 특히 하악 전치 부위에서 다발하여 이 부위의 정상 배열은 그렇게 많이 관찰되지 않는다. 서양 백인과 동양인의 경우에서는 연령의 증가에 따라 발생 빈도가 증가한다. 그러나, 흑인에 있어서는 치아의 크기가 큰데도 불구하고 연락의 증가에 다라 발생 빈도가 증가하지 않는다. 남녀의 발생빈도에 대한 연구 보고에 의하면 여자에서 많이 발생한다고 한다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the dental and basal arch forms in patients with normal occlusion using the computed tomography (CT) imaging method. Methods: CT images were taken from 27 normal occlusion subjects (male, 15; female, 12) and these images were reconstructed into three-dimensional models. A 3D-coordinate system was formed by setting the middle of the facial axis (FA) point of the maxillary central incisors as the origin. The morphology of the maxilla and mandibular dental and basal arches were analyzed by sectioning parallel to the maxillary occlusal plane. Results: There was no significant difference between A point and B point and between the maxillary 1st molars in both sides of the maxillary and mandibular basal bone. The dental arch was located more labially than the basal arch in the anterior portion. The bucco-lingual crossover of the dental arch and basal arch was formed at the molar region in the maxilla, and at the premolar region in the mandible. Conclusions: This study will help provide three-dimensional diagnostic information about the relationship between basal and dental arches in patients who have severe dental compensation and inappropriate jaw relationships.

MCM proteins are essential for eukaryotic DNA replication, playing roles in the initiation and elongation of DNA replication. MCM proteins expression is much higher in malignant tissues than normal tissues. Several reports have indicated the usefulness of MCM proteins as markers of cancer cells in histopathological diagnosis. However, the cause of enhanced expression of MCM proteins in cancer cells remain to be clarified. The purpose of this study is to examine the relative transcriptional activities of human mcm gene promoters in cancer and normal cells. The minimal promoter region required for transcription of a luciferase reporter gene was contained an E-box and one E2F site. In addition, luciferase activities from mcm7 and mcm2 promoter/luciferase gene reporter constructs were significantly increased in cancer cells at 8 times compared with normal cells. E-box and E2F binding site in the promoter of mcm genes are responsible for different mechanism of transcription regulation on the cellular environment.

The anterior horn of the medial meniscus is attached to the anterior surface of the tibia. The anterior horns of the medial and lateral menisci are connect with the transverse ligament. The posterior horn of the medial meniscus is firmly attached to the posterior aspect of the tibia just anterior to the insertion of the posterior cruciate ligament. The authors incidentally found an anomalous insertion of posterior horn of medial meniscus into the anterior horn area during arthroscopic examination in the symptomatic knee joint, which had been ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, and report with literature review.

깊은 생체 조직에서 전자기 에너지의 일부가 피부로 전달되는데, 이때 생체 내부에서 피부로 전달되는 전자기 에너지의 세기는, 주파수 대역과 전자기파를 흡수, 반사, 투과시키는 인체의 매질에 따라 다르다. Microwave Radiometry는 인체 내부 조직에서 방출되는 1-6 GHz 대역의 전자기 에너지 일부를 피부 표면에서 측정하여 일정한 체적내의 인체 내부 온도 평균온도를 추정하는 방법이다. 이러한 Radiometry로 암이나 종양 등의 이상 조직을 진단하는 의학적 가설은, 암이 진행시 악성 종양의 세포의 신진대사가 정상 세포보다 활발하게 되고 또한 종양 세포 주위로 혈액의 유입이 증가하게되어, 주위의 정상 세포 보다 열을 보다 더 방출하는 데 있다. 이때 발생된 열은 일정한 주파수 대역의 마이크로파 에너지를 방출하게 되고, 이에 Radiometry로 인체에 무해하고(passive), 비침습적(non-invasive), 방사능의 영향이 없는 (non-ionizing) 방법으로 인체 내부에서 전달되는 전자기 에너지 강도를 측정하여 종양 부위와 주위 정상부위의 온도 차이를 추정 의학진단에 응용할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 Microwave Radiometry의 의학적 응용과 생리학적 특성을 고려한 인체모델용 팬텀에 대하여 살펴본다.

Fetal weight data from 84 litters of Sprague-Dawley rats were statistically analyzed for the effect of position in the uterine horn on fetal weight. The standard score obtained from the mean weight and standard deviation of all fetuses in a uterine horn were studied for position effect. In control group, the heaviest fetus occupied the middle position with a progressive decrease in weights toward the ovarian and cervical ends of the horn. But the effect related to position for the fetal weight was not statistically significant. In contrast, rats acutely or chronically exposed to carbon monoxide showed statistically significant positional differences of fetal weight within the uterine horns. The findings that the intrauterine position effect on fetal weight which is not signicant in control group may act one of confounders at the situation of transplacental toxicological studios.

Histological examination of an individual of the Korean slender gudgeon Squalidus gracilis majimae having cutaneous albinism produced rarely in the wild was made and compared with a normal individual. The external body of the albino was colorless, differing from the normal individual, which has dense brownish black spots over its body surface. To make it clear through histological study, we observed eight skin regions: dorsal, lateral, ventral, upper caudal peduncle, lower caudal peduncle, dorsal fin, anal fin, and the eyes. These regional skins were the same in fundamental structure between albinic and normal gudgeon, but there were significant differences in distribution and development of pigment cells (melanins). In the normal gudgeon, the pigment cells were well developed over the regional skins except on the skin from the ventral region. However, it was confirmed in the albino that the pigment cells were vestigial over the upper regions of the eye and body but absent in the ventral region, lower caudal peduncle, and anal fin.
