목 적: 최근 HBsAb 및 HBcAb 양성인 공여자의 간이 식편을 이식 받은 수혜자에서 신생 B형 간염이 발생하는 것이 보고 되고 있으며, 저자들도 약 40%에서 신생B형 간염이 발생하는 것을 보고하였다. 한국인에서의 HBcAb 양성률은 50%가 넘는 것으로 보고하고 있는데, 이는 임상 간이식의 걸림돌이 될 수 있으며 저자들은 이를 예방하기 위한 일환으로써 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 1997년 11월부터 1998년 11월까지 12개월 동안 서울 아산병원에서 생체 간이식 공여자가 과거 B형간염과 C형 간염 감염의 증거가 없으면서 HBsAg 음성이면서 HBsAb 양성, HBcAb 양성인 성인 공여자 6명을 대상으로 하였다. 간이식 수술 시 동결 생검을 위하여 채취한 절편의 일부를 보관하여 실험에 사용하였다. 동결 절편 조직에서 DNA를 분리하여, HBV DNA의 표면 구역과 핵심 구역에 대한 시발체를 이용하여 이중 중합효소 연쇄 반응을 시행하여 검사를 시행하였다. 결 과: 공여자 6명의 조직에서 표면 구역이 모두 양성으로 관찰되었으며, 핵심 구역은 4명에서 양성으로 관찰되었다. 그 중 4명의 간을 이식받은 소아 수혜자는 모두 예방법을 시행하면서, 신생 B형 간염의 발생은 관찰되지 않고 있다. 결 론: 본 결과는 간이식 후 발생하는 신생 B형 간염의 원인으로 HBcAb 양성이 위험 인자임을 지지하고 있다. HBcAb 양성 공여자의 간이식편에서 핵심구역은 66%에서 양성으로 보여 이식 후 잠재 HBV 감염 혹은 신생 B형 간염의 발생을 막기 위해 예방적 치료가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

A competitive type immunoassay method for 17$\beta$-estradiol(E2) based on the idiotypic anti-idiotypic antibody and time-resolved fluorescence is described. The anti-idiotypic antibody(Ab2) produced to E2 binding site of the primary idiotype antibody (Ab1) was labelled with europium and was allowed to compete with E2 standards or serum sample for the binding sites of Ab1 which was bound to 2nd antibody captured ontothe surface of microtitre plates. Fluorescence measured by time-resolved fluorometer was inversely proportional to the concentration of E2 over the range 5~500pg/well. The sensitivity of the assay was 5pg per well which was compatible with that ofradioimmunoassay using the same Ab1 and 3H-E2 as a tracer. One great advantage of this method described here was to enable antibodies to be labelled instead of haptens, and thus makes it easier to develop sensitive and robust immunoassay systems specially for haptens.

Background: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) recognizing Class III epitope of CD34 are essential for flow cytometric diagnosis of leukemia. Methods: 27H2 mAb was developed from a mouse alternatively immunized with human acute leukemia cell lines, KG1 and Molm-1. Using flow cytometric analysis of various leukemic cell lines and peripheral blood, immunohistochemical study of frozen tonsil, we characterized 27H2 mAb. Antigen immunoprecipitated with 27H2 mAb immunobloted with anti-CD34 mAb. A case of bone marrow sample of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient was obtained at CBNU Hospital. For epitope identification enzyme treatment with neuraminidase and O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase (OSGE) and blocking assay with known classIII mAb (HPCA-2) were done. Results: Only KG1 and Molm-1 revealed positive immunoreactivity. Immunohistochemical staining disclosed strong membranous immunoreactivity on high endothelial venules. Antigen immunoprecipitated by 27H2 mAb showed approximately 100 kDa sized band immunoblotted with anti-CD34 under non-reducing conditions. Epitope recognized by 27H2 mAb disclosed resistancy to both neuraminidase and OSGE treatment and completely blocked with known class III mAb preincubation. CD34 positive leukemic cells in BM of pre B cell ALL patient detected by FITC-conjugated 27H2 and HPCA-2 were identified with similar sensitivity. Conclusion: A novel murine mAb recognizing class III epitope of human CD34 with high affinity, which is useful for flow cytometric diagnosis of leukemia, was developed.

Formation of intensity gratings was studied with two s-polarized (s+s) configuration in polymer liquid crystals (PLCs) containing a photochromic moiety (azobenzene) and a mesogenic unit (tolane, T-AB; cyanobiphenyl, CB-AB) by photoinduced alignment of PLCs. Remarkable differences were observed between the two PLCs. T-AB showed a faster response to the change in the diffraction intensity than CB-AB. In T-AB, alignment change took place faster than that of CB-AB. By introducing the tolane unit at the side chain, we obtained a diffraction efficiency of 30 % in the Raman-Nath regime

To develop the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the analysis of N-acetylehitooligosaccharides (NACOS) and chitooligosaccharides (COS), specific antibodies (Abs) were produced, and their properties were compared. N-acetylehitohexaose (NACOS6), chitohexaose (COS6), and COS mixture (COSM) conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA) were used to immunize rabbits. By the use of specific Abs and NACOS6-horseradish peroxidase (HRP), COS6-HRP, and COSM-HRP conjugates, competitive direct ELISA (cdELISA) was developed. The detection limits of NACOS6 by the anti-NACOS6 Ab and COS6 by the anti-COS6 and the anti-COSM Abs in the cdELISAs were about 0.2, 2, ana 2 ng/ml (ppb), respectively. In the cdELISA, the anti-NACOS6 Ab was found to recognize NACOS3-NACOS6, but not N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc), NACOS2, and COSs; the anti-COS6 Ab recognized COS2-COS6 and COSM, but not glucosamine (GlcN) and NACOSs. The recognition pattern of the anti-COSM Ab was almost the same as that of the anti- COS6 Ab, except that the former recognized COS2 and COS3 slightly better than the latter.

The structures and complexation energies of penta-O-alkylated 1b and penta-O-tert-butyl ester 1e of p-tert-butylcalix[5]arene and their simplified structures (2b and 2e) toward a series of alkyl ammonium guests have been calculated by a semi-empirical AM1 method. For AM1 calculations, complexation efficiencies of the simplified host 2e are very similar to the values of host 1e. The complexes of simplified host 2e with alkyl ammonium ions also have been optimized by ab initio HF/6-31G method. The calculated complexation efficiencies for 2e by ab initio method have been found to be bigger in magnitude than the values obtained by AM1 calculations for linear alkyl ammonium guests. Calculation results show that all of the calix[5]aryl derivatives investigated in this study have much better complexation ability toward ammonium cation without alkyl group compared with other alkyl ammonium guests. Ab initio calculations also well duplicate the molecular discriminating behaviors of calix[5]arene derivative 2e between butyl ammonium ions: $n-BuNH_3^+\;>\;iso-BuNH_3^+\;>\;sec-BuNH_3^+\;>\;tert-BuNH_3^+$.

An operator T belonging to the algebra B(H) of bounded linear transformations on a Hilbert H into itself is said to be posinormal if there exists a positive operator $P{\in}B(H)$ such that $TT^*\;=\;T^*PT$. A posinormal operator T is said to be conditionally totally posinormal (resp., totally posinormal), shortened to $T{\in}CTP(resp.,\;T{\in}TP)$, if to each complex number, $\lambda$ there corresponds a positive operator $P_\lambda$ such that $|(T-{\lambda}I)^{\ast}|^{2}\;=\;|P_{\lambda}^{\frac{1}{2}}(T-{\lambda}I)|^{2}$ (resp., if there exists a positive operator P such that $|(T-{\lambda}I)^{\ast}|^{2}\;=\;|P^{\frac{1}{2}}(T-{\lambda}I)|^{2}\;for\;all\;\lambda)$. This paper proves Weyl's theorem type results for TP and CTP operators. If $A\;{\in}\;TP$, if $B^*\;{\in}\;CTP$ is isoloid and if $d_{AB}\;{\in}\;B(B(H))$ denotes either of the elementary operators $\delta_{AB}(X)\;=\;AX\;-\;XB\;and\;\Delta_{AB}(X)\;=\;AXB\;-\;X$, then it is proved that $d_{AB}$ satisfies Weyl's theorem and $d^{\ast}_{AB}\;satisfies\;\alpha-Weyl's$ theorem.

The present study was conducted to evaluate radioimmunoimaging (RII) and in vivo distribution of mixed antibodies $^{99m}Tc$-EGFR-mAb and $^{99m}Tc$-CD44-mAb in nude mice bearing human lung adenocarcinoma xenografts. Single and mixed applications of the two radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were compared. Direct labeling of $^{99m}Tc$ was applied to radiolabel the EGFR and CD44 mAbs. The properties of the radiolabeled antibodies were then characterized. RII and assessment of the distribution of the antibodies in nude mice bearing lung adenocarcinoma xenografts were achieved by applying separate and combined doses of $^{99m}Tc$-EGFR-mAb and $^{99m}Tc$-CD44-mAb. The labeling rates of $^{99m}Tc$ for EGFR-mAb and CD44-mAb were $91.5%{\pm}3.8%$ and $92.3%{\pm}4.1%$ respectively, with specific activities of 2.8 and $2.9MBq/{\mu}g$, respectively, and radiochemical purities (RCP) of 96.5% and 96.2%. The radioactivity uptake of the combined application of both radiolabeled antibodies was clearly higher than with a single application of either alone. The relative values of target-to-nontarget (T/NT) measured through the regional interest (ROI) technique were $5.59{\pm}0.42$ (mixed antibodies), $2.78{\pm}0.20$ ($^{99m}Tc$-EGFR-mAb), and $2.28{\pm}0.16$ ($^{99m}Tc$-CD44-mAb) in the RII. The body distribution of the radiolabeled antibodies and their imaging results were basically identical. Application of the mixed antibodies with $^{99m}Tc$-EGFR-mAb and $^{99m}Tc$-CD44-mAb can increase the radioactivity uptake of tumor tissue, leading to more ideal target-to-nontarget ratios, and therefore superior results.
