Anethole, eugenol, isoeugenol, safrole and isosafrole are ingredients of refined oils which are obtained from some plants and their chemical structures are very similar. They are mainly used as a flavoring agent, food additive, dental analgesics and for many drugs. But, there is no report about their effect on the intestinal motility. The result of examining the effect, potency and mode of action of anethole, eugenol, isoeugenol, safrole and isosafrole on motility of isolated rabbit jejunum segment, are as follows : 1. Single administration of anethole, eugenol, isoeugenol, safrole and isosafrole showed the inhibition of motility of isolated rabbit jejunum segment, degree of which was various. The $pD_2$ values of isoeugenol, isosafrole, eugenol, safrole and anethole in isolated rabbit jejunum segment were 4.22, 4.18, 4.17, 4.15 and 3.82 (in the descending order of potency). 2. The contracted rabbit jejunum segment : by carbachol, pilocarpine, barium chloride and histarmine were relaxed by five essential oil. 3. The relaxed rabbit jejunum segment by anethole was not recovered by carbachol, pilocarpine, barium chloride and histamine. The relaxed rabbit jejunum segment by eugenol, isoeugenol, safrole and isosafrole were recovered by carbachol, pilocarpine and barium chloride but partially recovered by histamine. 4. Judging from the facts above, it is thought that five essential oil are inhibit the motility of isolated rabbit jejunum segment by neurotropic and musculotropic action.

Introduction: The use of rabbits as a cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) animal model is extremely dif%cult mainly due to technical problems. On the other hand, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest(CA) is used to facilitate surgical repair in a variety of cardiac diseases. Although steroids are generally known to be effective in the treatment of cerebral edema, the protective effects of steroids on the brain during CA are not conclusively established. Objectives of this study are twofold: the establishment of CPB technique in rabbits and the evaluation of preventive effect of steroid on the development of brain edema during CA. Material '||'&'||' Methods: Fifteen New Zealan white rabbits(average body weight 3.5kg) were divided into three experimental groups; control CA group(n=5), CA with Trendelenberg position group(n=5), and CA with Trendelenberg position + steroid(methylprednisolone 30 mglkg) administration group(n=5). After anesthetic induction and tracheostomy, a median sternotomy was performed. An aortic cannula(3.3mm) and a venous ncannula(14 Fr) were inserted, respectively in the ascending aorta and the right atrium. The CPB circuit consisted of a roller pump and a bubble oxygenator. Priming volume of the circuit was approximately 450m1 with 120" 150ml of blood. CPB was initiated at a flow rate of 80~85ml/kg/min, Ten min after the start of CPB, CA was established with duration of 40min at $20^{\circ}C$ of rectal temperature. After CA, CPB was restarted with 20min period of rewarming. Ten min after weaning, the animal was sacrif;cod. One-to-2g portions of the following tissues were rapidly d:ssected and water contents were examined and compared among gr ups: brain, cervical spinal cord, kidney, duodenum, lung, heart, liver, spleen, pancreas. stomach. Statistical significances were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test. Results: CPB with CA was successfully performed in all cases. Flow rate of 60-100 mlfkgfmin was able to be maintained throughout CPB. During CPB, no significant metabolic acidosis was detected and aortic pressure ranged between 35-55 mmHg. After weaning from CPB, all hearts resumed normal beating spontaneously. There were no statistically significant differences in the water contents of tissues including brain among the three experimental groups. Conclusion: These results indicate (1) CPB can be reliably administered in rabbits if proper technique is used, (2) the effect of steroid on the protection of brain edema related to Trendelenburg position during CA is not established within the scope of this experiment.

This study was carried out to determine if Salviae Radix extract (SRE) exerts protective effect against alterations in membrane transport function in rabbits with rhabdomyo lysis-induced acute renal failure. Acute renal failure was induced by intramuscular administration of glycerol (50%, 10 ml/kg). GFR in the glycerol-injected animals was reduced to 11% of the basal value and the fractional $Na^{+}$ excretion was increased to 7.8-fold, indicating generation of acute renal failure. When animals received SRE pretreatment for 7 days prior to glycerol injection, such changes were significantly attenuated. The fractional excretion of glucose and phosphate was increased more than 43-fold and 27-fold, respectively, in rabbits treated with glycerol alone. However, they were increased to 17-and 4.3-fold, respectively, in SRE-pretreated rabbits, and these values were significantly lower than those in rabbits treated with glycerol alone. Uptakes of glucose and phosphate in purified isolated brush-border membrane, the $Na^{+}-K^{+}-ATPase$ activity in microsomal fraction, and cellular ATP levels all were reduced in rabbits treated with glycerol alone. Such changes were prevented by SRE pretreatment. Uptakes of organic ions, PAH and TEA, in renal cortical slices were inhibited by the administration of glycerol, which was prevented by SRE pretreatment. Pretreatment of an antioxidant DPPD significantly attenuated the increase in the fractional excretion of glucose and phosphate induced by rhabdomyolysis. These results indicate that rhabdomyolysis causesimpairment inreabsorption of solutes in the proximal tubule via the generation of reactive oxygen species, and SRE pretreatment may provide the protection against the rhabdomyolysis-induced impairment by its antioxidant action.

The allelopathic effects of aqueous extracts from Trifolium repens were studied. Aqueous extracts of leaves, stems, roots and flowers of T. repens strongly inhibited the seed germination and seedling growth of Zoysia japonica. In general, the higher concentration of the extracts showed the more great inhibition effect. The phenolic compounds extracted from T repens were analysed and identified using gas chromatography. 14 phenolic compounds were isolated from the leaves, stems, roots and flowers: caffeic acid, p-hydroxy benzoic acid, ferulic acid, gallic acid, p-coumaric acid, vanillic acid, trans-cinnamic acid, 2,5 dihydroxy benzoic acid, syringic acid, 2-hydroxy cinnamic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, phloroglucinol and phanylacetic acid. The seed germination and relative growth ratio of Z. japonica by 14 phenolic compounds were inhibited in whole treatment. Stronger growth inhibitor were benzoic acid, salicylic acid and trans-cinnamic acid. From these results it is suggested that the phenolic compounds from T. repens seemed to be responsible for the allelopathic potential.

A total of 213 rabbits was investigated from July 1981 to June 1986, for the survey on the incidence of Cysticercus pisiformis infections and the morphological characteristics were observed for the descriptions on the scolexes of the cysts collected. The results obtained were summarized as follows; The overall infection rate was revealed as high as 21.6% and it increased annually with the secular trend equation Y=7.45X+5.87 when, Y=infection rate estimated, X=year 0(1981) to 5 (1986). The incidence was no relation with the sexes of the host, but it was higher in the short-haired New Zealand White than in the long-haired Angola. It was also revealed that the liver was the most parasitized organ (39.1%) and that 48 cases were double infections in two organs, such as the mesentery, the stomach or the kidney. The mean size of the cysts measured was 7.04mm in length and 4.62mm in width. There were four suckers and a rostellum on the top of the scolex identified inside the cyst. The hooks were arranged in two rows, the large-type inner hooks (mean $250{\mu}m$ in length) and the small-type outer hooks (mean $150{\mu}m$ in length).

This paper explores CT findings of a rabbit brain infection model injected with Escherichia coli and investigates the changes in Hounsfield unit (HU) of arterial blood over time. The brain infection model was produced by injecting E. coli $1{\times}10^7$ CFU/ml, 0.1 ml through the burr hole in the calvarium; 2~3 mm in depth from the dura mater, and contrast-enhanced CT, dynamic CT and arterial blood CT images were gained. It was found that various brain infections such as brain abscess, ventriculitis and meningitis. The CT image of brain abscess showed a typical pattern which the peripheral area was strongly contrast-enhanced while the center was weakly contrast-enhanced. The CT image of ventriculitis showed a strong contrast-enhancement along the lateral ventricle wall, and the CT image of meningitis showed a strong contrast-enhancement in the area between the telencephalon and the diencephalon. In dynamic CT images, the HU value of the infection core before injecting contrast medium was $31.01{\pm}3.55$. By 10 minutes after the injection, the value increased gradually to $40.36{\pm}3.76$. The HU value in the areas of the marginal rim where was hyper-enhanced showed $47.23{\pm}3.12$ before contrast injection, and it increased to $63.59{\pm}3.31$ about 45 seconds after the injection. In addition, the HU value of the normal brain tissue opposite to the E. coli. injected brain was $39.01{\pm}3.24$ before the injection, but after the contrast injection, the value increased to $49.01{\pm}4.29$ in about 30 seconds, and then it showed a gradual decline. In the arterial blood CT, the HU value before the contrast injection was $87.78{\pm}6.88$, and it increased dramatically between 10 to 30 seconds until it reached a maximum value of $749.13{\pm}98.48$. Then it fell sharply to $467.85{\pm}62.98$ between 30 seconds to 45 seconds and reached a plateau by 60 seconds. Later, the value showed a steady decrease and indicated $188.28{\pm}25.03$ at 20 minutes. Through this experiment, it was demonstrated that the brain infection model can be produced by injecting E. coli., and the characteristic of the infection model can be well observed with contrast-enhanced CT scan. The dynamic CT scan showed that the center of the infection was gradually contrast-enhanced, whereases the peripheral area was rapidly contrast-enhanced and then slowly decreased. As for arterial blood, it increased significantly between 10 seconds to 30 seconds after the contrast medium injection and decreased gradually after reaching a plateau.

Epidermal growth facter(EGF)는 내열성이 강하고 분자량이 6045 dalton인 단쇄상의 polypeptide로써, Cohen에 의해 생쥐의 악하선에서 처음 발견된 이래, 여러학자들에 의해 많은 연구가 되어왔다. 인체의 EGF는 urogastrone이라고도 불리우며, 인체의 소변에서 처음 검출되었고 분자구조 및 생리작용이 생쥐의 EGF와 매우 유사한 것으로 판명되었다. EGF의 자세한 작용기전은 확실히 규명되어있지는 않지만 세포의 증식과 분화를 촉진시키며 위산의 분비를 억제시킨다고 알려져 있다. 또한 EGF receptor는 분자량이 170,000${\sim}$180,000dalton인 세포표면의 polypeptide로써 인체, 쥐, 닭, 소 등의 세포막조직에 특이하게 결합되어 있다. 최근 수년동안 몇몇 학자들에 의해 EGF가 배아와 태아 및 태반의 성장을 촉진시키고 chorionic gonadotrophin과 placental lactogen의 분비를 증진하는데 기여할 것이라고 가정되어 왔다. 그러나 아직까지 배아착상에 대한 EGF의 작용여부에 관해서는 발표된 문헌이 없어 저자는 radioreceptor assay를 이용하여 EGF receptor binding과 토끼의 배아착상과의 관계를 규명하고자 임신경과에 따른 착상부위와 비착상부위의 자궁 및 태아측 태반과 모체측 태반을 분리취득하고 receptor binding assay를 시행하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 전임신군과 비임신군의 자궁조직의 membrane fraction으로부터 specific한 EGF receptor binding이 관찰되었다. 2. 착상전 임신 3일에 자궁조직의 EGF receptor수는 4.72 +0.16($10\;mol/{\mu}g$)로 비임신시보다 의의있게 증가되어 있었고(p<0.01), 착상시기인 임신 7일에는 착상된 부위에서 20.33+6.58로 훨씬 더 높은 측정치를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 3. 착상이후 가장 먼저 취득된 임신 14일의 태아측 태반은 모체측 태반의 1.39+0.49에 비해 훨씬 높은 11.94+1.97의 EGF receptor 측정치를 보였다 (p<0.01). 4. 이상의 소견들로 보아 EGF가 토끼의 배아착상에 밀접한 관련이 있을 것으로 추측되며, 이러한 착상전후의 EGF의 작용은 태아측으로부터 일 것으로 예상된다.

Poly (A) + RNA was isolated from mouse submaxillary gland and renin mRNA was isolated by poly (U)-sepharose chromatography and sucrose linear densiW gradient centifugation. And renin mRNA was identified by in vitro translation and immunoprecipitation. In order to construct recombinant plasmid, renin cDNA was synthesized by using reverse transcriptase and inserted into EcoRi site of PUC19. In addition, the cDNA was also synthesized using polymerase chain reaction and inserted into HindlIl site of PUC19. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into JMlO3 and the expression of the inserted renin cDNA was examined. The transformant produced renin protein having a molecular weight of 45, 000 dolton, which showed hypertensive effect upon injecting it into rabbit ear vein. A renin genomic library was prepared by inserting rabbit kidney DNA into EMBL3 phage, and was screeined for the isolation of renin gemomic DNA using renin cDNA probe.
