Four flavonoide glycosides and (-)-Epicatechin were isolated from the aqueous extracts of dried whole part of Lysimachia clethroides Duby(Primulaceae). They were 3-0-Methyl-quercetin-7-0-[$\alpha$-L- rhamnopyranosyl (1-2) glucopyranoside], Quercetin-3-0-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, Kaempferol-3-0-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside, Kaempferol-3-0-[$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1-6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside] and (-)-Epicatechin. 3-0-[$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1-6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside]and (-)-Epicatechin. 3-0-Methyl-quercetin-7-0-[$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1-2)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside] and (-)-Epicatechin were first isolated from this plant. Their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis [$^{1}$H-, $^{13}C-$ NMR, $^{1}$H-$^{1}$H-COSY, DEPT-analysis, HMQC(Heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence), FAB-MS].

Vitamin D is present in two forms, ergocalciferol (vitamin $D_2$) produced by plants and cholecalciferol (vitamin $D_3$) produced by animal tissues or by the action of ultraviolet light on 7-dehydrocholesterol in human skin. Both forms of vitamin D are biologically inactive pro-hormones that must undergo sequential hydroxylations in the liver and the kidney before they can bind to and activate the vitamin D receptor. The hormonally active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 $[1,25(OH)_2D]$, plays an essential role in calcium and phosphate metabolism, bone growth, and cellular differentiation. Renal synthesis of $1,25(OH)_2D$ from its endogenous precursor, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), is the rate-limiting and is catalyzed by the $1{\alpha}$-hydroxylase. Vitamin D dependent rickets type I (VDDR-I), also referred to as vitamin D $1{\alpha}$-hydroxylase deficiency or pseudovitamin D deficiency rickets, is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized clinically by hypotonia, muscle weakness, growth failure, hypocalcemic seizures in early infancy, and radiographic findings of rickets. Characteristic laboratory features are hypocalcemia, increased serum concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH), and low or undetectable serum concentrations of $1,25(OH)_2D$ despite normal or increased concentrations of 25OHD. Recent advances have showed in the cloning of the human $1{\alpha}$-hydroxylase and revealed mutations in its gene that cause VDDR-I. This review presents the biology of vitamin D, and $1{\alpha}$-hydroxylase mutations with clinical findings.

A new and two known lupane-triterpene glycosides were isolated from the hot MeOH fraction of the leaves of Acanthopanax gracilistylus W. W. Smith. Based on the physical properties and spectroscopic data, their chemical structures were determined as acankoreoside A (1), acankoreoside D (2), and $3{\alpha}-hydroxy-lup-23-al-20(29)-en-28-oic$ acid $28-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-{$beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl$ ester (3), respectively. To our best knowledge, compand 3 appears to be novel, which was named as wujiapioside A.

[ $(+)-Lyoniresinol-3{\alpha}-O-\beta-D-glucopyranoside$ ] (1) was isolated from an ethyl acetate extract of the root bark from Lycium chinense Miller, and its structure was determined using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy including DEPT, HMQC, and HMBC. $(+)-Lyoniresinol-3{\alpha}-O-\beta-D-glucopyranoside$ exhibited potent antimicrobial activity against antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from patients, and human pathogenic fungi without having any hemolytic effect on human erythrocytes. In particular, compound 1 induced the accumulation of intracellular trehalose on C. albicans as stress response to the drug, and disrupted the dimorphic transition that forms pseudo-hyphae caused by the pathogenesis. This indicates that $(+)-Lyoniresinol-3{\alpha}-O-\beta-D-glucopyranoside$ has excellent potential as a lead compound for the development of antibiotic agents.

Objectives: New photosensitizer 9-hydroxypheophorbide-$\alpha$(9-HpbD-$\alpha$) was derived from chlorophyll in water with peak absorption at 660nm. 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ was tested with 660 nm diode laser for the anticancer effect of photodynamic therapy. Materials and Methods: Human SNU 1041 cells were seeded into 96 well plate at a density of $$ cells/well for 24 hours. Cells were washed with media containing various concentration of 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ ranging from $0{\mu}g/ml\;to\;3.75{\mu}g/ml$. Then, laser treatment was done with 660nm diode laser ($10mW/cm^2$) at various time setting (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes) and with various time interval (0, 1, 4, 6, 18 hours). The treated cells were incubated 48 hours and MTT assay was done to measure the viability of cells. Results: The viability of cells was more than 90% after laser treatment in control group. The viability of cells was decreased with increasing concentration of 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ and laser treatment time in experimental groups. The viability of cells was decreased significantly as the interval time between addition of 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ and laser irradiation was increased. Conclusion: This study shows the anticancer effect of photodynamic therapy using 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ and 660nm Diode laser on carcinoma cell line. 9-HpbD-$\alpha$ is considerd as one of new photo sensitizers in the field of photodynamic therapy.

Acceplor reaction of glucosyltr~ansferase of Streptococcus ,SO~~-~IZLIS with f ~ ~ t o ~ y l o l i g o ~ a ~ ~ h a r i d e ~ was studied for the biosynthesis of novel olgisaccharides. First, bacilracin resistant mutants were selected by mutagenesis of Streptococcus sobrimis ATCC27351. Among these mutants 4 strains were selected by resistance to bacitracin and increase of glucosyltransferase. Acceptor reaction of maltose was analyzed by TLC and image analysis. There were differences in the specificity of the acceptor reaclion by Ule glucosylumsferase between mother strain (Streptococcus sobrinus ATCC2735) and bacitracin resistant mutants (Streptococcus sobrinus BR24C, Strepfococcus sobrinus CH-5). Molher strain did ilot show an acceptor reaction with fructosyloligosaccharides such as 1-keqtose and nystose. Acceptor reaction products of turailose and 1-kestose with glucosyltransferase (GW-S) of Streptococcus sobrini~s BR24C were TEX>\6^{3}$-$\alpha$-D-glucopyranosyl \3^{2}$-O-$\alpha$-D-fructose (glucose-fructose-glucose) and \6^{4}$-$\alpha$-D-glucopyranosyl \1^{3}$-$\beta$-D-~-h~ctofuranos~~ sucrose (glucose-glucosefructose- fructose). respectively These are novel oligosaccharides which can be produced only by enzymatic reaction.

Two triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the methanol extract of Caltha minor leave(Ranunculaceae). The structure of these saponin were elucidated as hederagenin-3-O-$\alpha$-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$2)-$\alpha$-L-arabinopyrano side and 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$2)-$\alpha$-L-arabinopyranosyl hederagenin 28-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$4)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl(1$\rightarrow$6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl ester.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of interaction between $1{\alpha}$-hydroxycholecalciferol ($1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$) and phytase on growth performance, parameters of tibia and plasma, and meat quality of 1- to 21-d-old broilers. Two hundred and forty male, 1-d-old Arbor Acres broilers were randomly assigned to 20 cages, with 12 chicks per cage. Five treatments were designed, with four cages each. A 2${\times}$2 factorial experiment was designed to test 0 and 5 ${\mu}g/kg$ of $1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$ in combination with 0 and 500 U/kg of phytase. A basal diet was formulated to contain 2.9 g/kg of non-phytate phosphorus (NPP), and the control diet was formulated to contain a normal level of NPP (4.5 g/kg). Results showed that $1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$ alone increased tibia ash, contents of calcium and phosphate, breaking strength, concentrations of plasma calcium and phosphate, and water-holding capacity of breast and thigh meat, while it decreased growth of broilers. Phytase alone improved performance and tibia quality. Although growth of broilers was lower than that of the positive control when the diet was supplemented with $1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$ and phytase, tibia quality was significantly improved by the addition of $1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$ and phytase. These data suggest that interaction between $1{\alpha}$-OH $D_3$ and phytase at 2.9 g/kg of dietary NPP could significantly increase bone quality of 1- to 21-d-old broilers, while not improving growth performance.

In this paper we prove that if Toeplitz operators $T^{\alpha}_u$ with symbols in RW satisfy ${\parallel}uk^{\alpha}_z{\parallel}_{s,{\alpha}{\rightarrow}0$ as $z{\rightarrow}{\partial}\mathbb{D}$ then $T^{\alpha}_u$ is compact and also prove that if $T^{\alpha}_u$ is compact then the Berezin transform of $T^{\alpha}_u$ equals to zero on ${\partial}\mathbb{D}$.
