Glycyrrhizin은 감초의 주성분으로 많은 생리활성을 나타내는 성분이다. 감초를 복용하게 되면, 글리시리진은 장내에 서식하고 있는 장내세균에 의해 glycyrrhetic acid로 대사된다. 하지만, 지금까지 대사반응에 관여하고 있는 균주가 분리 후 자원화되지 않았다. 본 연구를 통해 사람의 대변으로부터 glycyrrhizin을 대사하는 균주로 분리된 strain GLY의 16S rRNA 유전자를 분석한 결과, Enterococcus faecium과 99%의 상동성을 보여, Enterococcus faecium GLY (Genebank No. MH048988)로 명명하였다. 대사활성의 특성을 검토하기 위하여 time course, 기질의 농도에 따른 대사활성의 변화, 근연 균주와 대사활성 비교를 실시하였다. Time course 실험에서 GLY균주가 증식함에 따라 기질인 glycyrrhizin은 줄어들고, 대사산물인 glycyrrhetic acid는 새로 생성되었다. 또한, 기질의 농도에 따른 대사활성의 차이 검토를 위해 여러 농도를 처리하여 배양하였을 때, 1.0mM을 처리한 샘플에서 최대값의 대사물 농도를 보였다. Enterococcus faecium와의 근연균주를 이용하여 glycyrrhizin 대사활성을 측정한 결과, strain GLY 균주가 가장 큰 대사능을 가지고 있었다. 본 연구는 앞으로 glycyrrhizin 생체이용 및 대사 연구를 위한 기초연구가 될 것이며, 장내세균에 의한 생약성분의 대사를 이해하는데 도움이 될 수 있다.

This study was investigated to observe the effect of Treponema denticola(TDC) and Treponema lecithinolyticum(TLC) on cultured human periodontal ligament cells. Several experiments were performed including MTT test for the inhibition effect of cell proliferation, LDH test for the cytotoxicity , gelatin zymography for the gelatinase activation and observation of cell morphology change using the phase-contrast microscopy. The results were as follows. 1. The effect of concentration on cell proliferation with time showed an inhibitory effect at high concentration $(150{\mu}g/well)$ for TLC and at low concentration( $9.4{\mu}gwell$ ) for TDC. 2. The effect of time on cell proliferation with concentration showed an inhibitory effect at $150{\mu}g/well$ on 2-day incubation for TLC and at $9.4{\mu}g/well$ on 2-day incubation for TDC. 3. The effect of heat-treated TDC and TLC on the inhibition of cell proliferation showed the difference in the heat-treated group compared to the non-heat treated group for TDC, whereas no difference was found for TLC. 4. The morphological changes which were observed from the phase-contrast microscopy showed the difference in the test group compared to the control group. The loss of spindle-like appearance, cell-to-cell detachment and inhibition of cell proliferation were observed. 5. There was no difference of the cytotoxicity effect between the test group and the control group in the LDH test. 6. The active form of progelatinase A with molecular weight 72kDa was activated in both TDC and TLC on the gelatin zymography. Regarding to the above results, TDC and TLC have an effect on periodontal ligament cells by playing an inhibitory role in cell proliferation and appears to activate progelatinase A which degrades type IV collagen.

This study was performed to examine antitumor activities of Rubus coreanus Miquel and Angelica gigas Nakai extracts against sarcoma-180 and anti-stress activities in ICR mice. The variation of body weights of the 20 days of Rubus coreanus extracts-administrated mice group was very low. The survival rate (T/C %) of Rubus coreanus extract administrated group was 161% after 50 days from the inoculation of sarcoma-180 and the increment of their body weights was suppressed. Anti-stress effect of the extracts of R. coreanus and A. gigas were estimated by maeasuring blood chemical value and internal organs weight in ICR mice. The extracts of R. coreanus reduced the cholesterol and glucose to the normal level in the all stress animal models. The extracts of R. coreanus reduced the hypertrophy of the internal organs such as adrenal, spleen and liver to the regular level.

Present experiment were attempted to examine in vitro multiplication throughbud culture of Cornus officinalis. Bud derived shoot formation was established successfully on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ BAP(N-benzyl amino purine). The shoot proliferation increased on the Driver Kuniyuki Walnut medium containing $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ NAA(Napthalene acetic acid) and $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ BAP. Addition of 2,4-D(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) to the media produced excessive callus inducton. IAA(Indole-3-acetic acid) and IBA (Indole-3-bu-tyric acid) enhanced multple shooting, and NAA showed callus induction and multiple shooting. Shoot growth was enhanced supplemented with 3% sucrose, $2g\;/\;{\ell}$ activated charcoal, and 1 / 4MS in organic salts. However, root formation of proliferated shoots was low about 5%

The strain OK-63 isolated from katsuobushi was cultured on wheat bran medium and the isolate was morphologically identified as an Aspergillus niger group and showed maximum pretense activity and multiplication after 6 days of cultivation. Protease was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation. Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The purified enzyme showed single band by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the purity was 150 times higer than crude enzyme. The recovery of enzyme activity was found to be 45%.

조직공학은 결손된 조직의 구조 및 기능을 신속히 수복할 수 있도록 적절한 생체소재, 세포, 활성인자 세가지 구성요소를 적절히 조합하는 것이다. 이렇게 하므로써 결손된 조직을 대체할 수 있는 세포에 대한 부착, 이동, 증식, 분화조건을 최적상태로 만들어 주는 것이다. 이러한 관점에서 치아임플랜트의 조직 공학적 적용은 다음 몇가지 관점을 고려할 수 있다. 첫째, 인공치아 임플랜트도 넓은 의미에서 그 자체로서 조직공학의 범주에 들어간다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 결손된 치아의 구조 및 기능을 신속히 회복시킬 수 있도록 조직공학적인 관점에서 검토할 수 있다. 생체소재는 표면에너지의 관점에서, 세포는 골모세표와 섬유모세포관점에서, 활성인자는 세포분화 촉진인자의 관점을 고려할 수 있다. 둘째, 치아임플랜트의 기능회복 촉진을 위한 조직공학기법을 부가적으로 적용하는 것이다. 임플랜트와 생체조직사이에 기능성 조직을 신속히 형성시키므로써 임플랜트의 기능회복을 촉진하는 적절한 생체소재, 세포, 활성인자를 적절히 이용하는 정통 조직공학기법을 적용하는 것이다.

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is the mixture of positional and geometric isomers of linoleic acid (LA, C18:2 $\omega$6), which is found abundantly in dairy products and meats. This study was peformed to investigate the anticarcinogenic effect of CLA in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. MCF-7 cell were treated with LA and CLA at the various concentrations of 15, 30, 60, 120 UM each. After incubation for 48 and 72 hours, cell proliferation, fatty acids incorporation into cell, peroxidation and activities of antioxidant enzymes were measured. Postaglandin E$_2$ (PGE$_2$) and thromboxane $A_2$ (TXA$_2$) were measured for the eicosanoids metabolism. There was no cell growth differences in both of LA and CLA treated MCF-7 cells at 48 hr incubation. Compared to LA, cell growth was decreased by CLA treatment according to increasing concentration at longer incubation times, respectively (p<0.05). Both of LA and CLA was incorporated into the cellular lipids 22~54% higher than in control but LA incorporation was not so linear as CLA according to concentration. Arachidonic acid (C20:4, $\omega$6) was synthesized after treatment of LA but did not in CLA, respectively. The lipid peroxide concentration in LA 120 $\mu$M group increased as 1.7 times as that in CLA 120 $\mu$M treated. The activities of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase were increased by the supplementation with CLA 120 $\mu$M at 72 hr incubation (p<0.001) compared to LA, otherwise activity of superoxide dismutase was not different in both. PGE$_2$ and TXA$_2$ levels were lower in condition of CLA treatments according to lower levels of arachidonic acids than those in LA treated group, respectively. Overall, the dietary CLA might change the MCF-7 cell growth by the changes of cell composition, production of lipid peroxide, activities of antioxidant enzymes and eicosanoid synthesis compared to dietary LA.

The division and circadian DNA-synthesis rtythm are studied in chick liver immediately after hatching. The vision function is tested by the mitotic and the $^3H-thymidine$ labelling index The DNA synthesis exhibited a cyclic variation of 12 hours immediately after hatching. The rhythmic changes of DNA synthesis was maintained in the liver of meal-fed chickens, but the DNA synthetic activities decreased gradually in the starved chicken liver. From this time, the rhythm of DNA synthesis was greatly afffected by lighting schedule, all these DNA synthesis of chicken liver was accompained by mitosis.

Clinically applicable light emitting diode (LED) has been widely investigated because of relatively low heat generation, low cytotoxicity, and non-invasiveness compared to other therapeutic methods. Therefore, we investigated the therapeutic effects of several wavelengths of light emitting diode against human cervical cancer cells and analyzed the individual inhibitory effect for the cancer cell proliferation. In the experiment, prepared HeLa cells were exposed by red, green and blue light-emitting diode for 10 minutes each. Relatively short-wavelength light-emitting diode (blue) showed stronger therapeutic effects than relatively long-wavelength light-emitting diodes.
