This study was investigated to establish a regeneration system of plant via adventitious bud formation from leaf explant cultures of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch). Effects of plant growth regulators (2,4-D, BAP), agar sucrose and myo-inositol on adventitious bud formation were investigated. When the leaf explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D and 3 mg/L BAP, the adventitious bud formation was most promoted. The adventitious bud formation was not induced from leaf explants cultured on MS medium containing 2,4-D alone. Adventitious bud formation was enhanced to almost 3 times on medium with low level of agar concentration (0.4%) in comparison with those on the medium with high level of agar (1%), but almost of shoot was vitrificated on the medium. Therefore, the normal adventitious bud formation from leaf explants was most effective on the medium containing 0.05 mg/L 2,4-D,1 mg/L BAP, 0.8% agar, 30 g/L sucrose and 100 mg/L myo-inositol. Thus, the mass propagation of healthy strawberry could be established using leaf explants.

This study was conducted to establish a regeneration system of plantlets through callus culture induced from bulb scales of Lillium‘Gelria’. Friable callus was induced very easily from bulb scales, and grew vigorously on medium lacking growth regulators. In media with 0.5∼ 1.0 mg/L kinetin and 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L NAA, 100% of explants produced callus. Proliferation of callus was actively occurred on media containing 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L kinetin and 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L NAA. Callus proliferation and regeneration of bulblets from callus were occurred simultaneously. Light condition was more effective for the callus proliferation and solid medium was better than liquid medium. Althrough callus was proliferated vigorously on media containing 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L BA and NAA, the frequncy of plantlet regeneration was better on medium without growth regulators, then on medium with 0.1 mg/L BA and NAA.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis in suspension culture of Aralia elata S. Callus was induced from the explants of leaf and petiole cultured in the MS media containing 2,4-D and TDZ. More embryogenic calli were formed from petiole and with combination treatment of 24-D and TDZ. The quarter strength MS medium was effective for increasing number of somatic embryos. Mannitol supplemented to the quarter strength MS medium, reduced somatic embryo formation but inositol increased. Normal plantlets(86%) were regenerated from mature somatic embryos in MS basal medium and 50% of those survied when transplanted to the vermiculite in greenhouse.

Anemia in fish can be easily recognized by examining the gill color and physical properties of sampled blood. The number of erythrocytes is generally within 1-3 ${\times}10^6$. Hematocrit (Ht) reportedly ranges 35-45% in many of reports which is nearly the same as that in mammals. Anemia in fish can also be classified as hemorrhagic, hemolytic and hypoplastic ones. Fish are also expected to have similar pathological effects by anemia as in mammals. From the fact that fish can survive under extremely low hematocrit below 10% and antarctic icefish (Chanenocephalus aceratus) has no erythrocytes, different pathological effects were expected. Anemia is considered to have one of the most important health parameters, based on the pathological aspect. Therefore, by reviewing clinical and histopathological findings of most of fish diseases already known and then adding our results of experimental anemia, diseases and factors related to anemia were summarized and the pathological effects was discussed.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a composite of bone substitute and collagen barrier membrane (bone patch) for local ridge augmentation at peri-implant dehiscence defects on the clinical efficacy and positional stability in dogs. Materials and methods : Implant placement and ridge augmentation procedure were performed at surgically created peri-implant dehiscence defects in canine mandible (n=6). Four treatment modalities were randomly applied: i) bone patch group, ii) Guided bone regeneration (GBR) without pin fixation group (bone graft and collagen membrane), iii) GBR with pin fixation group, and iv) negative control group. After 12 weeks, clinical, micro-CT and histological analyses were performed. Results : Histologic analysis showed that bone patch group had similar results to GBR group and GBR with fixation group in terms of new bone formation. Micro-CT analysis revealed similar results to histologic analysis in terms of total volume maintenance. Operating time was shorter in bone patch group compared to GBR group and GBR with fixation groups. Conclusions : GBR using bone patch could simplify the ridge augmentation procedure with reduced operating time and equivalent biological performance compared to the conventional procedure.

This study was performed to observe the bacterial adhesion and penetration to e-PTFE membrane following guided tissue regeneration(GTR) procedure and to evaluate the association of the membrane exposure and bacterial contamination with the clinical outcome. For the study, ten infrabony defects in 9 patient were treated by mucoperiosteal flap operation including placement of the e-PTFE membrane. The treated teeth were monitored weekly for the membrane exposure, gingival recession and gingival inflammation. The membranes were retrieved after 4 to 6 weeks, examined by SEM for bacterial contamination and adherent connective tisue elements, and observed under LM for the bacterial penetration into membrane. Three months postsurgery, the defect sites were clinically reexamined for the changes in attachment level and probing depth. Comparison of the ultrastuctural findings and clinical outcome revealed that extent of membrane exposure and bacterial contamination of the membrane was inversely associated with clinical attachment gain. From this finding, the extent of membrane exposure and the bacterial contamination on the apical portion of the e-PTFE membrane at the time of removal seemed to be a critical determinant on the clinical outcome of GTR and the membrane exposure needs to be controlled for optimal results.

The aim of the present investigation was to see the effect of combined use of PDGF BB and IGF -1 on the guided tissue regeneration(GTR) using barrier membrane in the treatment of human furcation involvement. Twelve patients with initially diagnosed as having moderate to advanced adult periodontitis with mandibular class II buccal furcation defects have been wer selected. Initial scaling and root planing has been performed and baseline data consisting of probing depths and attachment levels have been recorded prior to surgical procedures. The GTR procedures using either barrier membrane(control : ePTFE) alone or together with the application of PDGF - BB and IGF -l(experimental : ePTFE+PDGF/IGF) have been done under the routine guidelines. During the surgery, the distance from CEJ either to the bottom of the bone defects(CEJ - BD) or to the bone crest(CEJ-BC) were measured. Horizontal distance to the deepest area in the furcal defects were measured from the reference line connection the most prominent bony walls of the two buccal roots. 6 months following the GTR therapy, all the measurements were made repeatedly. The probing attachment gain of the experimental and the control grous were 2.14mm and l.07mm, respectively with no statically significnant difference. Amont of vertical bone fill in the experimental and the control groups were 2.43mm and 2.29mm, rexpectively. Amonut of horizontal bone fill were 2.86mm in the experimental group and 2.17mm in the control group, respectively. However, there were no significant differences in the amount of bone fill(both vertical and horizontal)between the two groups.

Paradigm shift in management of infected immature permanent teeth has occurred. The new concept of the treatment includes minimal or no intracanal instrumentation, disinfection with triple antibiotic paste and sealing with mineral trioxide aggregate. This regenerative endodontic treatment promotes differentiation of periradicular stem cells that induce regeneration of vital tissue and continuation of root formation. Thorough disinfection and three-dimensional scaffold are important in this new concept of the treatment. Platelet-rich fibrin has been reported as 'new scaffold' instead of blood clot, which had been used in the past. Triple antibiotics can be used to disinfect the tooth but may lead to complications including discoloration. Three cases of infected immature permanent tooth caused by dens evaginatus fracture are presented. After removal of necrotic pulp and thorough intracanal irrigation, only platelet-rich fibrin was applied to the root canal in the first case. In the other cases, topical antibiotics was used for disinfection and platelet-rich fibrin for scaffold. In all the cases, the opening was sealed with mineral trioxide aggregate. All the cases showed proper healing of inrabony lesion and some lengthening of root. According to these cases, regenerating vital tissue of the infected immature permanent tooth can be achieved with disinfection and application of platelet-rich fibrin.

Recently, three-dimensional scaffolds and nanofibers are being developed for bone tissue regeneration. In this study, we fabricated a hybrid scaffold using a nano-micro precision deposition system. The fabrication process involved the application of the solid freeform fabrication (SFF) technology and electrospinning. The hybrid scaffolds were combined using micro scaffolds and nanofibers. The nanofibers were deposited on each layer of the micro scaffolding using the electrospinning process. The micro scaffolds were fabricated using the SFF technology at a temperature of $100^{\circ}C$, pressure of 650 kPa, and scan velocity of 250 mm/s. Nanofiber fabrication was conducted by means of electrospinning using the flow rate, solution concentration, distance from the tip to the collector (TCD), and voltage. The nanofibers were fabricated using a flow rate of 0.1 ml/min, voltage of 5 kV, TCD of 1 mm, and 10 wt% of solution concentration. MG-63 cells were seeded into the hybrid scaffold for the purpose of its evaluation.

Total parenteral nutritional effect was induced by surgical creation of Thiry-Vella fistula(TVFs) in rats. Glutamine, glycine or nucleosides/nucleotide mixture in solution was injected into the loops for 2, 4, 6, 8 days. Control animals received a 0.9％ saline solution. Results include weight gain, total protein, DNA, ［$^3$H］ thymidine incorporation into DNA, morphometry of the intestine in both TVFs and intestine in continuity. Perfusion of nucleosides/nucleotide mixture into the bypassed loops caused an increase in total protein, DNA content, villous height, villous surface area in loops. The injection of glycine into loops caused an increase in ［$^3$H］ thymidine incorporation but the mean values of the protein and DNA contents were not significantly different from those in group Cont and group Nuc. Overall values for group Gln were slightly higher than those of the control but the differences were not statistically significant. This study suggests that this animal model may be useful for studying the effect of dietary factors on intestinal growth and maturation, separating the direct effect of diet from systemic effect on the intestine.
