Rana pipiens의 난자운반은 섬모운동에 의하여 이루어지며 섬모운동은 배란시에 분비되는 난소호르몬에 의존하는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 저자는 이러한 난자운반이 순전히 난소호르몬에 의존하는가 난소호르몬 이외의 기타 호르몬이 관여하는 것인가 또는 난소호르몬 없이도 수행될 수 있는가를 알아보려고 본 실험을 시도하였다. 난관 적출된 개구리에 배란을 유도시켜 얻어진 복강난자를 난소적출을 실시한 암 Rana pipiens의 복강내에 이전시킨 대조군과 이전 직후 뇌하수체, 뇌하수체와 progesterone, progesterone, FSH, LH 또는 estrogen 등을 각각 주사시킨 각 호르몬 투여군의 6군으로 나누고 이식한 난자들에 대한 각 호르몬의 효과를 관찰하여 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 난소적출 Rana pipiens에 배란된 난자를 이식시키면 이식체내에서 난자운반이 진행되었다. 2. Progesterone, estrogen, FSH, LH 및 progesterone과 뇌하수체 호르몬 투여군의 난자운반은 대조군과 비슷한 현상을 보여 주었으므로 이들이 섬모운동에 직접 관여하는 것으로 보여지지 않았으나 뇌하수체 호르몬은 섬모운동과 난관투입에 유효한 영향을 미치었다. 3. 난자의 난관으로의 진입은 복강내에 난자수가 일정량(약 200)에 다달아야 이루어졌다. 4. 난소적출 개구리에서의 난자운반 진행상황으로 보아 난소가 섬모운동, 난자운반을 촉진하는 것으로 보이지 않았으며 섬모운동을 일으키는 요인은 복강내에 있는 난자 자체가 어떤 액성물질을 분비하는 것으로 고찰하였다.

Regular exercise is effective in preventing coronary disease such as angina pectoris and infarction, inside it can lower the blood pressure and aids in weight control and release of stress. Risk factors of arteriosclerosis is hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, physical inactivity and excessive smoking. Arteriosclerosis begins at young age worsens with age, particulary in male. For people with risk factors of arteriosclerosis, it is important to prevent arteriosclerosis-related disease with dietary, living pattern and exercise prescription. Dietary fibers promote exercise of the digestive tract and shortens the time food remains inside the digestive tract. It can prevent obesity, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and colin cancer by blocking the absorption of cholesterol. Various vegetables and sea foods are lichen unsaturated fats and prevent the absorption of cholesterol inside the digestive tract. Essential fatty acids and unsaturated fats which are contained in vegetable oils, promotes metabolism while preventing absorption. In fruits, pectin water-soluble fiber, is present and lowers the level of cholesterol. By consuming foods that low in cholesterol and saturated fats, and rich in unsaturated fats, aliomentotherapy alone can reduce the plasma cholesterol by 10~l5$\%$. For ideal exercise, it should be aerobic with intensity of 60~80$\%$ HRmax, duration of 15~60min/day. The frequancy of 3~6/week is desirable the better exercise prescription is endurance aerobic exercise. To get more effect exercise, exercise consistency is very important.

In the present study, we investigated the effect of maturity and motility of spermatozoa on the formation of pronuc-leus and subsequent developmental capacity of the human embryo in vitro. The fertilization was performed by means of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in HEPES-buffered m-TCM-199 medium. In the first part of the experiment, motile or im-motile human spermatozoa ejaculated were injected into cumulus-enclosed human oocytes matured in vivo. Significantly (p<0.002) higher proportion of oocytes that was injected with motile spermatozoa formed 2 pronuclei than the oocytes injected with immotile spermatozoa (79.8% vs 51.7%). In the second part of the experiment, cumulus-enclosed human oocytes matured in vivo were injected with motile or immotile spermatozoa collected from testes. There was no difference between motile and immotile spermatozoa. In the third part of the experiment, using modified Tyrode's medium containing 10.0 mM lactate, 0.5 mM pyruvate, 0.2 mM taurine, 1.0 mM glutamine, 2.22 mM MEM amino acids, vitamin and 10% human follicular fluid, we found that the development of oocytes that formed 2 pronuclei were able to develop to 9-16 cells regardless of maturity and motility of spermatozoa.

The purpose of this study was to develop a exercise program adapted from pelvic muscle exercise, and to analyze the effect of the exercise program on the physical fitness and the physiological parameters including bone density total estrogen and progesterone. The exercise program was composed of warming-up(10 min), main exercise(40 min) and warming-down(10 min). The 20 middle-aged women between 40 and 60 years old were divided into four group; the control group(6 women), the exercise group (7 women), and exercise group with soybean milk supplement(7 women). The exercise group with soybean milk group was applied three times a week and two packs of the soybean milk per day were given. The result of this study were as follows. In the percent fat change of within group, the exercise group showed significant decreased before than after the exercise. In the change of between group, the control group showed significant decreased than the exercise group with soybean milk group. In the body composition change of between group, the exercise group with soybean milk group showed significant decreased in body mass index than the control group. In the total estrogen change of within group, the pelvic muscle exercise with soybean milk group showed the decreased before than after the exercise.

Spawning of the bitterling, Acheilognathus yamatsutae into the mussel was studied from 1990 to 1992 in Lake Uiam, Korea. This fish preferred to spawn in certain mussel species such as Unio douglasiae, U. douglasiae sinuolatus, Lamprotula gottsehei and Anodonta arcaeformis flavotincta in order of preference. Within the same species of mussel, they preferred the larger size. Eggs and larvae were commonly located in the inner demibranch of mussels. Average number of eggs or larvae per mussel was 3.6(ranged from 1 to 35). The eggs of the bitterling were hatched out within 41 hours when water temperature remained over $20^{\circ}C$ and the larvae already possessed minute tubercles on the skin and yolk projections to prevent themselves being washed out from mussels.

It was investigated whether a combination of PPARα activator fenofibrate and swimming exercise (H/F/S) would have a beneficial synergistic effect on improving inflammation of white adipose tissue compared to the single prescription of fenofibrate (H/F) and swimming exercise (H/S) in male mice that fed high fat diet. The body weight, weight of white adipose tissue and total cholesterol levels in the serum increased in mice-fed high fat diets (H) compared to mice-fed low fat diets (L). Compared to H, both H/F and H/S decreased these. These levels reduced by fenofibrate were more effectively reduced by the combination of fenofibrate and swimming exercise (H/F/S). As a result of examining the expression of inflammatory cytokines genes and fatty acid oxidation genes in white adipose tissue, H increased compared to L, both H/F and H/S decreased compared to H, and H/F/S decreased further compared to H/F. Thus, this study revealed that the combination of fenofibrate and swimming exercise in male mice fed high-fat diet suppresses inflammation of white adipose tissue caused by obesity through promoted fatty acid oxidation more effectively than the fenofibrate alone, and suggested a practical way to improve inflammation of adipose tissue caused by obesity.

To improve the functionality of black garlic drinks, black garlic extract (5%) and five herb extracts (1%) were mixed in 70:30 (v/v) ratios as BHF1, and BHF2 was prepared using a 3X concentration of BHF1. After the black garlic and herb formulas (BHFs) were administered over the course of five weeks in rats by interval running training, the lipid profiles and the antioxidant enzyme activities were tested. The total phenolic content of the BHFs were significantly higher in BHF2 than they were in BHF1, and their antioxidant activities were dependent upon the total phenolic content. No significant difference was found in the total serum protein levels among the rats in the Ex-con group by interval running training and the rats in the BHFs-fed groups. However, the albumin level was significantly higher in the Ex-BHF2 to Ex-con group. AST and ALT activities significantly decreased in the BHFs-fed groups compared to the Ex-con group. In terms of changes in the serum lipid profiles, no significant difference was found between the specimens that underwent interval running training and those that did not undergo interval running training. Triglyceride levels, total cholesterol, LDL-C, and HTR levels in the serum were significantly decreased in the Ex-BHF2 to Ex-con group. No significant difference was found in the total lipid levels in the livers of the BHFs-fed groups and the Ex-con group. The triglyceride levels and total cholesterol levels in the Ex-BHF2 group were significantly lower compared to another group. Hepatic catalase activity was significantly increased in the Ex-BHF2 group, but SOD and GSH-px activities were significantly increased as the concentration of the BHF. The antioxidant enzyme activities by supplementation of BHFs increased; thus, three intakes of BHF each day could improve antioxidant status against different types of oxidative stress.

One of the methods to transmit solute through solvent is diffusion. Various particles or molecules including several charged ions in the body diffuse from high density region to low density due to density difference or external electric field. This kind of mechanism is due to thermal motion of each solute molecules. These situations can be deployed using Fick's first and second laws that govern diffusion phenomena in the body. I analysis these diffusion status of material in the body using above mentioned Fick's laws and then implement them through illustration.
