GABA shunt에 관여하는 두 가지 효소인, GABA transminase와 Succinic semialdehyde reductase에 대한 단일 클론 항체를 생산하고 이들 항체의 특성을 살펴보았다. 소의 뇌에서 순수 정제된 효소를 동물에 주사한 후 immunodot-blot 분석법에 의하여 일차적으로 항체를 분비하는 hybridoma를 골라낸 후 생산된 단일 클론 항체가 특이적으로 이들 효소와 반응하는 가를 알아보기 위하여 Western blot 분석을 실시하였다. 뇌조직에서 추출한 총단백질을 SDS 전기영동법에 의하여 분리한 후 이들 항체를 처리한 결과, GABA-T에 대한 항체는 특이적으로 분자량이 50kDa에 해당하는 단백질 밴드만을 인지하였고 SSA reductase에 대한 항체의 경우 분자량이 34kDa 크기의 단백질 밴드와 반응하였다. 이들 분자량은 순수 정제된 소뇌의 효소 단백질의 크기에 해당하는 것을 확인하였다. 이들 소뇌의 효소에 대한 항체를 추적물체로 사용하여 다른 포유동물자 조류의 효소와 비교하는 cross-reactivity 연구를 수행하였다. 소, 돼지, 토끼, 쥐 (rat), 개, 고양이 그리고 닭의 뇌를 제거한 후 총단백질을 추출하고 Western blot을 해본 결과 GABA transaminase의 경우 조류를 제외하고 다른 포유동물에서는 같은 분자량의 단일 단백질 밴드를 확인하였고 SSA reductase의 경우 조류를 포함하는 모든 동물에서 같은 분자량의 밴드를 확인하였다 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 포유류 뇌에 있는 이들 효소들은 변역학적으로 아주 유사하다고 사료된다.

Purpose : To evaluate the immunogenicity of hepatitis B vaccine among very low birth weight infants(VLBWI) who were vaccinated at 0, 1, 6 months of chronological age and to determine the factors associated with antibody formations. Methods : A total of 243 VLBWI admitted to Seoul and Gangneung Asan Medical Center neonatal intensive care units from 1997 to 2004 were included. Of 243, 13 infants were born to HBs Ag positive mother. All infants were given DNA recombinant vaccine at 0, 1, and 6 months of chronological age. Infants born to HBs Ag positive mothers received hepatitis B immunoglobulin at birth and a total of 4 doses of vaccinations. An antibody level over 10 mIU/mL, tested at 3-4 months after last vaccination, was regarded as a positive seroconversion. Results : The seroconversion rates were 84.4 percent and 84.5 percent for VLBWI and extremely low birth weight infants(ELBWI), respectively. Of 28 seronegative infants who were given revaccinations, 60.7 percent seroconverted, resulting in 95.3 percent, 97.5 percent seroconversion rates for VLBWI and ELBWI, respectively. 76.9 percent of infants born to HBsAg positive mothers seroconverted and none became hepatitis B carriers. Factors such as gestational age, sex, various neonatal illness, and kinds of vaccinations did not influence the formation of the hepatits B antibody, however, the higher the weight at time of first vacciation yielded better seroconversion rate. Conclusion : Revaccination of seronegative VLBWI after 3 doses of hepatitis B vaccinaton is very effective. Therefore, testing the immune status after the hepatitis B vaccination, a practice not routinely done, is highly recommended.

Unexpected antibody screening and identification tests are highly important in the prevention of hemolytic transfusion reactions. Therefore, it is highly recommended to perform unexpected antibody screening test in all transfusion candidates. Here, the frequency and distribution of unexpected antibodies identified in Jeju for the past 3 years were evaluated. Between Jan 2014 and Dec 2016, unexpected antibody screening test was performed for 10,360 sera of transfusion candidates in Jeju general hospital using a column agglutination method with the Ortho BioVue system (Ortho-clinical Diagnostics, Raritan, NJ, USA). Eighty-seven (0.84%) of 10,360 cases that underwent unexpected antibiotics screening showed positive results. Among them, unexpected antibodies were identified in 41 cases (0.40%). Unidentified antibodies were detected in 8 cases (19.51%) and autoantibodies were detected in 3 cases (7.32%). The anti-E antibody included in warm antibodies were detected most frequently in 8 cases (19.51%); 6 cases (14.63%) of anti-E + anti-c antibody and 3 cases (7.32%) of $anti-Le^a+anti-Le^b$. $Anti-Le^a$ and $anti-Le^b$ antibodies were detected in 2 cases (4.88%), respectively. The anti-D, $anti-Di^a$, $anti-Fy^b$, $anti-Jk^a$, $anti-Jk^b$, anti-M and anti-P1 were detected in 1 case (2.44%). Complex antibodies were detected in 1 case (2.44%) in anti-C+anti-D and anti-E+anti-c+$anti-Jk^b$, respectively. In this study, we analyzed the frequency and distribution of unexpected antibodies in one general hospital for the past 3 years. However, there has been a general increase in multicultural families and foreign workers in Jeju, and it would be a meaningful study to compare the frequency and distribution of unexpected antibodies.

Purpose : This study was performed to evaluate the seropositivities and levels of Hepatitis A Virus(Hav) antibody in term pregnant women and their neonates, and the transplacental transfer rate of maternal Hav-specific IgG(Hav IgG) from tenn pregnant women to their neonates. Methods : During Jan. 1st, 1998 to May. 31 tho 1998, we collected the 42 pairs of sera from pregnant women and umbilical cord of their neonates in Korea University Ansan Hospital. The serum levels of Hav IgG were measured by the RIA method. Results : 1) The seropositivities of Hav IgG were 78.6% in mothers and 81.0% in neonates. There was no statistical difference of mean antibody(Ab) levels between mothers and neonates. There was significant correlation of Ab levels between maternal sera and neonatal umbilical cord sera(correlation coefficient r=0.9285, P<0.001). 2) There were no significant correlations between neonatal Hav IgG level and other factors such as maternal age, gestational age and initial body weight of neonates. Conclusion : Seropositivities of Hav IgG tenn-pregnant women was comparable to those of their neonates. Pregnant women and their neonates can be protected from Hav infection.

Nine monoclonal antibodies directed against infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) were prepared by using cell hybridization technique, and the biological properties of the antibodies were investigated by means of immunofluorescence, serum neutralization, and electrophoretic analysis. Eight of 9 monoclonal antibodies reacted specifically with the antigenic constituents of IBRV, infectious laryngotracheitis virus, Marek's disease virus, turkey herpesvirus, hog cholera virus, porcine parvovirus and transmissible gastroenteritis virus. However, the remaining one, 26-2 clone, was found to be cross-reactive with pseudorabies virus. Two monoclonal antibodies, 7-C-2 and 12-A-2, which had neutralizing activity, were reactive with the molecular weights of 72 kilo daltons (72K) and 125K of IBRV proteins electrophoretically separated, respectively. The monoclonal antibody, 3-H-3, which is corresponding to 94K of IBRV proteins, revealed no neutralizing activity. The cross-reactive monoclonal antibody, 26-2, was proved by electrophoretical analysis to be reactive with 100K of IBRV proteins and 40K of pseudorabies virus.

Vitellogenin, which is found in the serum of female and male fishes exposed to environmental endocrine disrupter or estrogen hormone, is used as a biomarker for environmental contamination with an endocrine disrupter. In order to produce antibody against vitellogenin, a synthetic peptide for partial vitellogenin was injected into rabbits. In addition, by using ion exchange chromatography on DE-52, vitellogenin was purified from the serum of carp induced with $17{\beta}$-estradiol. Polyclonal antibody against purified vitellogenin reacted well with vitellogenin in the serum of carp induced with $17{\beta}$-estradiol and the serum of female carp, whereas polyclonal antibody against the vitellogenin peptide did not react with proteins in those samples. This may indicate that vitellogenin proteins, covalently modified largely, could not be detected by Western blotting with the polyclonal antibody against the synthetic vitellogenin peptide.

This experiment was carried out to develope the production of specific yolk antibody from laying hens immunized with antigens from Salmonella enteritidis. Antigenic protein isolated from the flagella of Salmonella enteritidis, determined by SDS-PAGE, was pure and has a molecular mass of approximately 54.6 kDa. It was observed that the antibody titers both in egg yolk and serum were performed at 2 weeks after immunization with flagella antigen to the laying hen. And the level was increased gradually to 6 weeks after immunization. At the time of 6 weeks, the antibody titer of yolk showed higher than that of serum. According to the results of specificity test(ELISA), the yolk antibody did not react with different bacterial strains(S. choleraesuis, ETEC Kl2:K99, K88,987P), but reacted only with S. enteritidis strain. The contents of immunoglobulin(IgY) in an egg yolk was 106mg approximately. By the isolation procedure of IgY from the egg yolk, 88.3 percent of IgY content was recovered in this study.
