Purpose: This study was to evaluate the expression pattern of CD 18(leukocyte adhesion glycoprotein) in ischemia-reperfusion injury of TRAM flap of rats. Through this study, we can obtain more information about ischemia-reperfusion injury. We want to develop specific medicine to improve the survival rate of TRAM flap in the future. Methods: A TRAM flap supplied by a single pedicle superior epigastric artery and vein was elevated on 60 Sprauge-Dawley rats. The rats were divide into 6 groups (each group n=10); Group O: sham, no ischemia-reperfusion injury, Group I: 2 hour reperfusion after 4 hour ischemia, Group II: 4 hour reperfusion after 4 hour ischemia, Group III: 8 hour reperfusion after 4 hour ischemia, Group IV: 12 hour reperfusion after 4 hour ischemia, and Group V: 24 hour reperfusion after 4 hour ischemia. This study consisted of gross examination for flap survival and flow cytometry study of CD18 on neutrophils. Results: The gross measurement of the flap showed different survival rate in group I(71%), II(68%), III(37%), IV(34%) and V(34%). All experimental groups showed an increase in the expression of CD18 compared to group O. The expression of CD18 was rapidly increased in ascending order in group I, II and III. But, the expression of CD18 was maintained in group IV and V. Conclusion: The results can be implemented in the study to develop drugs which are capable of reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in microsurgical breast reconstruction.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of mast cell and histamine as typical product of mast cell in ischemia-reperfusion injury of muscle flap using H2 receptor blocker and mast cell stabilizer. Methods: Thirty-five Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250-300 gm were divided into four groups; Group I: Control group without ischemia, Group II: Normal saline injection group with ischemia, Group III: Cimetidine injection group with ischemia, Group IV: Sodium cromoglycate injection group with ischemia. Well established single pedicled transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous(TRAM) flap was designed in all rats and were rendered ischemia by clamping the artery for 150 minutes. All injections were applied intramuscular around gluteal area 30 minutes before reperfusion. The flap survival was evaluated at 7 days after operation. Neutrophil counts and mast cell counts were evaluated 24 hours after reperfusion. Results: The difference of skin flap survival between control group and cimetidine injection group was not significant. In the normal saline injection group flap survival was markedly decreased compared to that of control group. The muscle flap survival was similar to the results of skin flap survival. The neutrophil counts were significantly decreased in control group and sodium cromoglycate injection group than normal saline injection group. The mast cell counts were significantly decreased in cimetidine injection group and control group than both normal saline injection and sodium cromoglycate injection groups. The protective effect of sodium cromoglycate was not seen in the skin flap, but the muscle flaps showed protective effects of sodium cromoglycate compared to normal saline injection group. Conclusions: It is suggests that commonly used antihistamine(H2 receptor blocker) has protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion injury to skin and muscle flaps by reducing neutrophil and mast cell. The mast cell stabilizer was not effective for skin flap but, possibly, for muscle flap.

Purpose: Erythropoietin is traditionally known to regulate erythropoiesis, but recently its protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion injury has been studied mainly in cardiovascular and neuronal systems. This study was planned to investigate the effects of recombinant human erythropoietin on ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat TRAM flap model. Methods: Superiorly based TRAM flap was elevated and ischemic insult was given for four hours. Thirty minutes before reperfusion, single dose recombinant human Erythropoietin(5000IU/kg) was injected via intraperitoneal route in the treatment group. At 24 hours postoperatively, systemic neutrophil count, tissue myeloperoxidase activity, malonyldialdehyde amount, nitric oxide content, tissue water content and histologic finding of inflammation was evaluated. On 10 days postoperatively, flap survival rate, angiogenesis and change in hematocrit level was evaluated. Results: Tissue nitric oxide level was significantly higher and myeloperoxidase activity was significantly lower in the treatment group 24 hours after reperfusion. Tissue water content was significantly lower in the treatment group. Perivascular neutrophil infiltration and intravascular adhesion was marked in the control group. Mean flap survival after ten days was 69% in the treatment group, and 47% in the control group, demonstrating a significant difference. Neovascularization in the treatment group also outnumbered the control group. No significant hematocrit rise was noted ten days after erythropoietin administration. Conclusion: Recombinant human Erythropoietin improved flap survival in ischemia-reperfusion injured rat TRAM flaps, at least partially owing to suppressed inflammation, increased nitric oxide, and enhanced angiogenesis.

Intravenous lipid emulsion is used extensively as a major component of parenteral nutrition for patients in the surgical intensive care unit. Abnormal cardiovascular function related to lipid infusion has been reported although conflicting results exist. In the present study, we investigated the effects of intravenous emulsions of long-chain triglyceride (LCT) and medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) on myocardial ischemia/ reperfusion injury and on platelet aggregation in rat. There was no difference between LCT and MCT considering the effects on left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and coronary flow rate (CFR) before and after ischemia/reperfusion in isolated rat heart. On the other hand, a difference was found between LCT and MCT with regard to their effects on heart rate (HR) and end diastolic pressure (EDP) after ischemia/reperfusion. After ischemia/reperfusion, HR was significantly (P<0.05) reduced and EDP significantly (P<0.05) inc.eased by LCT (18$\pm$2.0% and 42.8$\pm$8.9%, respectively), but not by MCT Ex vivo platelet aggregation induced by collagen was reduced by LCT infusion, but not by MCT These findings suggest that MCT may have slightly more favorable effect than LCT on the myocardial function after ischemia/reperfusion in rat.

Cervus elaphus (CE), being known to reinforce Kidney, have tested to study the effects concerning damages of renal tissue induced by oxygen free radicals. I had observed the effects of CE extract on damages of rat's kidney following ischemia and reflow. Before ischemia was caused, CE extract was applied $0.2m{\ell}$ per 250g through femoral vein in ischemia and reflow group and normal sailine was applied in normal group, Ischemia was caused by renal artery's clamp for 60 min and reflowed by clamp remove after 30 min. It was increased on the content of lipid peroxidation, activies and type conversion ratio of xanthine oxidase following ischemia and reflow. by clamp remove after 30 min. It was increased on the content of lipid peroxidation, activies and type conversion ratio of xanthine oxidase following ischemia and reflow. However, they were decreased when CE extract was pre-applied. Glutathione level was decreased in ischemia and reflow group, and increased in CE extract's pre-applied group. However, it could not seen special changes on aldehyde oxidase activities, either. In conclusion, CE extract recovers the damage of kidney due to ischemia and reflow by decreasing the lipid peroxidation.

Background: Hyperinflation during lung ischemia has been known to improve pulmonary functions after reperfusion which may be exerted through a pulmonary vasodilation and avoidance of atelectasis by an increased surfactant release and been known whether the improvement of pulmonary function was the effect of hyperinflation itself or the oxygen content in inflation gas. Therefore we attempted to clarify the effect of hyperinflation with oxygen in pulmonary inflation gas during warm ischemia on pulmonary function after reperfusion to solve the problem of ischemia-reperfusion injury after lung transplantation. Material and Method: sixteen mongrel dogs were randomly divided into two groups: the left lung was inflated to 30-35 cm H2O with 100% oxygen in oxygen group and 100% nitrogen in nitrogen group. The inflated left lung was maintained with warm ischemia for 100 minutes. Arterial and mixed venous blood gas analysis and hemodynamics were measured before ischemia and 30, 60, 120, 180 and 240 minutes afer reperfusion. Lung biopsy was taken for the measurement of lung water content after the end of reperfusion. Result: In oxygen group arterial oxygen tension the difference of arterial and mixed venous oxygen tension and the difference of alveolar-arterial oxygen tension at 30-minute after reperfusion were not significantly different from those before ischemia and were stable during the 40hour reperfusion. However in nitrogen group these values were significantly deteriorated at 30-minute after reperfusion. there was no significant difference between two groups in hemodynamic data peak airway pressure and lung water content. Conclusion : The results indicated that the oxygenation one of the most important pulmonary functions was improved by pulmonary inflation with 100% oxygen during warm ischemia but the hemodynamics were not. Oxygen as a metabolic substrate during warm ischenia was believed to make the pulmonary tissues to maintain aerobic metabolism and to prevent ischemic damage of alveoli and pulmonary capillary.

토끼의 25분간의 척수허혈 모델에서 cyclosporin A의 신경보호효과를 신경병리학적 연관성과 면역조직화학적분석을 통하여 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 몸무게가 3.0 kg 전후의 뉴질랜드산 토끼를 이용하였고 복부 대동맥을 25분간 차단하였다. 32마리의 토끼를 무작위로 4군으로 나누어 대조군인 12군(n=8)과 17군(n=8)은 복부 대동맥 차단만 시행한 후 12군은 2일째, 17군은 7일째 희생시켜 신경학적 평가와 조직학적 검사를 시행하였다. 실험군인 Cs2군(n=8)과 Cs7군(n=8)은 복부 대동맥을 차단 후 재관류 15분 후에 cyclosporin A (25 mg/kg)를 정맥 주입한 후 Cs2군은 2일째, Cs7군은 7일째 희생시켜 신경학적 평가와 조직학적 검사를 시행하였다. 결과: 모든 토끼가 술 후 생존하였으며 술 후 2일째 신경학적 평가에 있어서는 군들 간 차이가 얼었으나 술 후 7일째 시행한 평가에서 복부대동맥 허혈 후 cyclosporin A를 투여한 Cs7군의 Tarlov score가 평균 $2.75{\pm}0.89$로 투여하지 않은 17군의 $1.25{\pm}1.39$에 비해 의미 있게 높아 신경학적 평가상 덜 손상을 받았음을 알 수 있었다(p<0.05). 또한 대조군 17군에서는 신경학적 평가가 2일째보다 7일째 악화하는 경향이었으나 통계학적으로 의미 있는 차이는 없었고 실험군 Cs7군에 있어서는 신경학적 평가가 2일째 $1.87{\pm}0.83$에 비해 7일째 $2.75{\pm}0.89$로 의미 있게 호전되었다(p<0.05). 모든 군을 조직학적으로 손상의 정도에 따라 등급을 매겼으며 신경학적 평가와의 상관관계를 분석하였는데 상관계수 -0.44로 조직학적 손상정도와 신경학적 평가사이에 유의한 관계가 있었다(p=0.009). 병리조직학적 등급을 4군 간 비교하였을 때 2일째 희생시킨 대조군과 실험군 사이에는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 7일째 희생시킨 17군은 조직학적 등급이 $2.13{\pm}1.36$이었으나 Cs7군은 $1.0{\pm}0.53$으로 두 군 간 유의한 차이가 있어 병리학적으로도 cyclosporin A를 투여한 실험군 Cs7군이 대조군 17군에 비해 덜 손상을 받았음을 알 수 있었다(p=0.039). 12군과 Cs2군에서 TUNEL 염색에 양성반응을 보이는 신경세포의 수는 12군이 $17.5{\pm}22.6$개였고 Cs2군이 $12.5{\pm}11.1$개로 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. Heat shock protein-70 (HSP70)과 neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)에 대한 면역조직화학검사에서 실험군 Cs2군의 신경세포가 대조군 12군에 비해 HSP70과 nNOS의 과발현을 보였으며, 이는 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). nNOS와 HSP70의 발현은 강한 연관성을 보였고(상관계수 0.91, p=0.000), nNOS를 발현하는 세포가 동시에 HSP70도 발현함을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론: 우리는 cyclosporin A가 토끼의 25분간의 척수허혈에 대해 척수보호 효과가 있었으며 이는 HSP70의 과발현과 연관이 있으리라 생각한다.

본 연구에서는 용액성장법에 의해 양자 입자로 구성된 CdS 박막을 슬라이드 유리기 판위에 성장시키고 이들의 구조적 광학적 특성에 대하여 연구하였고 이들 결과를 토대로 용 액성장법으로 성장된 CdS 박막의 양자 사이즈 효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 성장시간은 1, 3, 10, 20분이었고 성장온도는 75$^{\circ}C$였다. X-선 회절 분석결과 본 연구에서 합성된 CdS 박막은 hexagonal상의 결정구조를 갖는 것으로 나타났고 성장시간에 따라 막의 투께는 61~195nm, 입자사이즈는 8.5~22.5nm로 나타났다. 광에너지 변화에 따른 투과도 측정결과 본 연구의 CdS 시료는 성장시간에 따라 에너지 밴드갭이 2.43~2.51 eV로 나타나서 벌크 CdS의 에너 지 밴드갭인 2.42 ev보다 높은 에너지 밴드갭을 갖게 되어 양자 사이즈 효과에 의한 blue shift 현상이 용액성장법에 의해 합성된 CdS 시료에도 존재한다는 것이 밝혀졌다 그리고 이 같은 용액성장법으로 성장된 CdS에 대해 최초로 수행된 Raman 산란 실험결과 이성장방법 으로 성장된 CdS에는 1TO, E2, 1LO 포논 모드가 존재함을 알수 있었고 또한 입자 사이즈 감소에 의한 1LO포논 모드의저주파수 shift 현상 즉 포논 모드의 softening 현상이 있음이 밝혀졌고 softening은 최대6.2%까지 발생하였다. 이와같은 높은 softening은 본연구의 CdS 박막 내 양자 입자의 입도가 작은것에 기인하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 본 CdS 시료의 양 자 사이즈 효과의 결과로 1TO 포논도 나타났는데 이 1TO 포논과 E2 포논의 Raman shift 는 성장시간 즉 막의 두께와는 무관한 것으로 나타났다.행렬모형(二重比例行列模型)을 이용하여, 산업구조의 변화로 인한 직업별 인력수요 변화가 충분히 고려되도록 하였다. 전망의 결과에 따르면 향후 우리 경제는 지식기반경제(knowledge-based economy)로 이행하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 우선 산업구조면에서 지식집약적산업으로의 구조조정이 일어나게 되고 이에 따라 산업별 취업구조에서도 고기술산업의 취업준비중이 급속히 증가하게 된다. 직업별 취업분포에 있어서도 전문기술직 행정관리직 등의 고숙련 사무직의 비중은 크게 증가하는 반면 생산관련직과 농림어업직의 비중은 감소하게 된다. 이처럼 경제가 지식집약화되어 감에 따라 고학력자에 대한 수요는 지속적으로 증가하지만 현재 적절한 인력양성과 공급이 이루어지지 않고 있어 향후 기술이나 기능에 따른 수급부일정(需給不一政)(skill mismatch)현상이 매우 심해질 것으로 보인다. 따라서 앞으로의 인력정책에서 가장 주안점을 두어야 할 부분은 첨단기술산업과 관련된 인력의 양성에 있다고 하겠다.2시간까지 LPDG용액은 MEC용액보다 비교적 나은 회복을 보였고 재관류 3일과 7일의 폐기능 평가에서 두 용액 모두에서 폐기능의 점차적 소실을 보였으며 이는 병리조직검사에서 보듯이 폐혐에 의한 외적인 요소라고 생각되며 따라서 LPDG용액은 허혈재관류손상 방지 및 급성폐렴 등 염증을 잘 관리한다면 20시간 이상 LPDG용액의 안전한 폐보존의 가능성 을 얻을 수 있었다.ic 형태로 외래유전자가 발현되었지만 대조구에서 87.0% (26/30개) 배반포기가 $\beta$-Gal 활력을 보인 반면, G418 처리구에서는 모든 배반포기가 $\beta$-Gal 활력을 보였다 (P<0.05). 그러나 대조구 및 G418 처리구의 ICM

최근 본 교실에서는 two-bath system을 이용하여 혈관 내피세포에서 superoxide에 의존한 혈관 이완성 물질을 동정하여 발표하였다. 본 실험에서는 상기 system을 이용하여 돼지의 관상동맥 내피세포에서 유리되는 superoxide에 의존한 이완성 물질이 고양이의 흥부 대동맥 내피 및 소의 대동맥 배양내피세포에서 얻어진 이완성 물질에 의한 이완과 매우 유사함을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 고양이 흥부 대동맥, 돼지 관상동맥의 내피세포 및 소 대동맥 배양 내피세포 등에서 유리되는 superoxide에 의존한 이완 물질은 모두 유사한 이완 작용을 나타내었다. 2. 돼지 관상 동맥 내피세포에서 유리되는 superoxide 의존성 이완 물질이 고양이의 흥부 대동맥 내피세포나 소의 대동맥 배양 내피세포에서 유리되는 이완 물질과는 다소 다른 점도 있었다. 즉, 돼지 관상동맥 내피세포에서 유리되는 이완 물질의 작용은 catalase나 superoxide dismutase(SOD)에 의하여 억제되었으나, 후자의 두 동맥 내피세포에서 유리되는 이완 물질은 SOD에 의해서만 억제되었다. 3. 이러한 이완성 물질들의 생성은 여러 lipoxygenase억제제인 gossypol, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, AA 861 및 eicosatetraynoic acid 등의 전처치에 의하여 봉쇄되었다. 4. Cyclooxygenase 억제제인 indomethacin이 나 cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase 억제제인 proadifen과 cimetidine에 의하여는 봉쇄되지 아니하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 이러한 이완성 물질들은 비록 각기 다른 종의 동물 모델에서 얻었다고 하더라도 장기에 따라 다소 반응의 차이는 있으나 동질성 이완 물질이며, 나아가 이러한 이완성 물질은 여러 조직의 허혈-재관류 손상에 있어서 병리생리학적으로 관련될 것으로 사료된다.

To determine whether bile juice exclusion can prevent the mucosal damage, and Insulin-like growth factor-I can promote mucosal regeneration in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the bowel, 39 weanling rats with 10 cm of Thiry-Vella loop were studied. Animal groups were; Control, BL(common bile duct ligation), IGF{insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I) infusion} and IGF-BL(combined treatment). IGF-I(1.5 mg/kg/day) was continuously delivered through a subcutaneously implanted miniosmotic pump. After 15 minutes of superior mesenteric artery clamping, a tissue specimen(P) was taken after 30 minutes of reperfusion. Intestinal continuity was restored to allow oral feeding. A specimen of main tract(M) and another of the Thiry-Vella loop(T) were collected for histomorphometry after 48 hours of reperfusion and free feeding. Villus size ratio(VSR), crypt depth(CD), crypt-depth/villus-height ratio(CVR) and injury score(IS) were measured in 15 consecutive villi. The postoperative mortalities of bile duct ligation groups(BL and IGF-BL) were higher than those of other groups. In control group, VSR of M was lower(P<0.05) than P or T, but not in the other groups. VSR of M in control was lower than those in other groups. CD of T in control, IGF and IGF-BL group were higher than those of M. CD of M and T showed gradual increments from control, IGF and IGF-BL group, respectively. CVR of M and T in IGF group were higher than those in control. CVR in IGF-BL group, T was higher than M, and M was higher than P. About IS, M of BL($20.1{\pm}2.5$) and IGF-BL($20.9{\pm}3.3$) groups were significantly lower than that of control($32.4{\pm}2.5$). These results suggest that the exclusion of bile juice reduces the severity of the reperfusion injury of the mucosa, by inability to activate pancreatic enzymes and IGF-I stimulates mucosal regeneration in injured bowel, and the effect is potentiated by bile juice exclusion.
