Following seven new nucleophilic adducts of sulfilimine compounds were prepared by the addition of 1-methyl-5-mercapto-1,2,3,4-tetrazole to vinylsulfilimine derivatives; S-Phenyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine, S-p-tolyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine, S-m-tolyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine, S-p-chlorophenyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine, S-p-bromophenyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine, S-p-methoxyphenyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine and S-p-nitrophenyl-S-2-(1-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thio)-ethyl-N-p-tosylsulfilimine. The structures of these adducts were confirmed by elemental analyses, MP, UV, IR-and NMR-Spectra.

To examine intracellular signaling of human $S1P_3\;(hS1P_3),$ a sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor in plasma membrane, $hS1P_3$ DNA was transfected into RH7777 rat hepatoma cell line, and the inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation and activation of MAP kinases by S1P were tested. In $hS1P_3$ transformants, S1P inhibited forskolin-induced activation of adenylyl cyclase activity by about 80% and activated MAP kinases in dose-dependent and pertussis-toxin (PTX) sensitive manners. In oocytes expressing $hS1P_3$ receptor, S1P evoked $Cl^-$ conductance. These data suggested that PTX-sensitive G proteins are involved in $hS1P_3-mediated$ signaling, especially the positive action of S1P in cell proliferation. The potential advantages of rat hepatoma cells for the research of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor are discussed.

The addition reactions of cysteine without blocking amino and carboxyl groups to substituted and unsubstituted ${\beta}$-nitro-styrene derivatives were investigated. ${\beta}$-Nitrostyrene(1a), p-methyl-${\beta}$-nitrostyrene(1b), 3,4,5-trimethoxy-$[\beta}$ -nitrostyrene(1c), $[\varpi}$-3,4-methylenedioxy-${\beta}$ -nitrostyrene(1d), o-, m- and p-chloro-${\beta}$ -nitrostyrene (1e, 1f, 1g) and o-, m- and p-methoxy-${\beta}$-nitrostyrene (1h, 1i, 1j) easily undergo addition reactions with cysteine to form S-(2-nitro-1-phenylethyl)-L-cysteine(3a), S-[2-nitro-1-(p-methyl)phenyl-ethyl]-L-cysteine(3b), S-[2-nitro-1-(3',4',5'-trimethoxy) phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3c), S-[2-nitro-1-($[\vatpi}$ -3',4'-methylenedioxy)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3d), S-[2-nitro-1-(o-chloro)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3e), S-[2-nitro-1-(m-chloro)-phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3f), S-[2-nitro-1-(p-chloro)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3g), S-[2-nitro-1-(o-methoxy)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3h), S-[2-nitro-1-(m-methoxy)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3i) and S-[2-nitro-1-(p-methoxy)phenylethyl]-L-cysteine(3j), respectively. The structure of adducts were confirmed by means of UV-spectrum, IR-spectrum, molecular weight measurement and elemental analysis. The various factors effecting the yield of cysteine adducts to ${\beta}$-nitrostyrene derivatives were also studied.

Sphingosine kinase 1 and its product, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), as well as their receptors, have been implicated in inflammatory responses. The functions of receptors $S1P_1$ and $S1P_2$ on cell motility have been investigated. However, the function of $S1P_3$ has been poorly investigated. In this study, the roles of $S1P_3$ on inflammatory response were investigated in primary peritoneal macrophages. $S1P_3$ receptor was induced along with sphingosine kinase 1 by stimulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS treatment induced inflammatory genes, such iNOS, COX-2, $IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6 and $TNF-{\alpha}$. TY52156, an antagonist of $S1P_3$ suppressed the induction of inflammatory genes in a concentration dependent manner. Suppression of iNOS and COX-2 induction was further confirmed by western blotting and NO measurement. Suppression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induction was also confirmed by western blotting and ELISA. Caspase 1, which is responsible for $IL-1{\beta}$ production, was similarly induced by LPS and suppressed by TY52156. Therefore, we have shown $S1P_3$ induction in the inflammatory conditions and its pro-inflammatory roles. Targeting $S1P_3$ might be a strategy for regulating inflammatory diseases.

Luminescence of bismuth activated CaS, CaS:Bi, prepared in sodium polysulfide is studied. Excitation spectrum of CaS:Bi shows a band at 350 nm due to the recombination process between holes in Na+Ca2+ and electrons in conduction bands, in addition to bands at 260 nm from band gap of CaS, and at 320 nm (1S0→1P1) and at 420 nm (1S0→3P1) from electronic energy transitions of Bi. Emission band at 450 nm is from 3P1→1S0 transition of Bi3+, bands at 500 nm and 580 nm correspond to recombinations of electron donors (Bi3+Ca2+ and VS2-) with acceptors (VCa2+ and Na+Ca2+). Emission band of 3P1→1S0 transition is shifted to longer wavelength from CaS:Bi to BaS:Bi, due to the increase of the Stokes shift by the decrease of the crystal field parameter from CaS:Bi to BaS:Bi.

The origin of five small satellites (1980 S1, 1980 S3, 1980 S26, 1980 S27 and 1980 S28) and F-ring of Saturn which were recently discovered inside the orbit of Mimas, is proposed in terms of the resonant effects by external satellites in the Saturnian primordial extended ring. From the calculations of resonance locations and strengths, the following conclusion could be derived. Assuming that present two objects 1980 S1 and 1980 S3 were originally a single object 1980 S1+S3, 1980 S1+S3 had been formed due to Enceladus' 2/1 resonance and 1980 S26 due to Mimas' 3/2 resonance at first and then 1980 S28. 1980 S27 and F-ring were formed in the next due to 1980 S1+S3's 8/7, 9/8 and 10/9 resonances, respectively.

Purpose: While the amylase concentration of the drainage fluid (dAmy) has been reported to be a predictor of postoperative pancreas-related complications (PPRC), the optimal timing for its measurement has not been fully investigated. Materials and Methods: The clinicopathological data of 387 patients who underwent elective gastrectomy for gastric cancer were reviewed. Laboratory data, including dAmy on postoperative days 1 (dAmy1) and 3 (dAmy3), and serum C-reactive protein (sCRP) concentrations on postoperative days 1 (sCRP1) and 3 (sCRP3) were compared between patients with PPRC and without PPRC. Results: Nineteen of the 387 patients (4.9%) developed PPRC. The optimal cutoff values of dAmy1, dAmy3, sCRP1, and sCRP3 were 1514 IU/L, 761 IU/L, 8.32 mg/dL, and 15.15 mg/dL, respectively. The area under the curve of dAmy1 was greater than that of dAmy3 (0.915 vs. 0.826), and that of sCRP3 was greater than that of sCRP1 (0.820 vs. 0.659). In the multivariate analysis, dAmy1 (P<0.001) and sCRP3 (P=0.004) were significant predictors of PPRC, while dAmy3 (P=0.069) and sCRP1 (P=0.831) were not. Thirteen (41.9%) of 31 patients with both dAmy1 ≥1,545 IU/L and sCRP3 ≥15.15 mg/dL had PPRC ≥Clavien-Dindo II. In contrast, among 260 patients with both dAmy1 <1,545 IU/L and sCRP3 <15.15 mg/dL, none developed PPRC. Conclusions: dAmy1 was more useful than dAmy3 in predicting PPRC. The combination of dAmy1 and sCRP3 may be a useful criterion for the removal of drains on postoperative day 3.

(3S,4S)-1-(t-Butoxycarbonylmethyl)-3-[(S)-1-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl]-4-(2-diazo-2-ethoxycarbonyl-1-oxoethyl)-2-azetidinone (14) was prepared from 4-styryl-2-azetidinone 7b via a sequence of reactions involving N-alkylation with bromoacetate, ozonolysis, oxidation, condensation with magnesium ethyl malonate, and diazo transfer reaction. (3S,4S)-3-[(S)-1-(t-Butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl]-4-(3-diazo-3-ethoxycarbonyl1-hydroxypropyl)-2-azetidinone (21) was also prepared from 4-formyl-2-azetidinone 5b via a sequence of reactions involving Wittig reaction, 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with ethoxycarbonylformonitrile oxide, catalytic hydrogenation, and diazotization. However, the final cyclization of 14 or 21 to 1-hydroxycarbapenem or 1-hydroxycarbapenam by treating with $Rh_2(OAc)_4$ was unsuccessful.

Dielectric properties of Ba(ZnS11/3TTaS12/3T)OS13T+x ZnO(x=0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0 wt%) ceramics have been investigated at microwave frequencies. With excess ZnO, the sinterability was improved and the dielectric constant($\varepsilon$S1rT) and the unloaded quality factor(QS1UT) were increased. The structure changed into hexagonal from pseudocubic as being annealed at 140$0^{\circ}C$ in excess ZnO composition. Also, the temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency ($\tau$S1fT) turned into (-)ppm/$^{\circ}C$ when sintered at 155$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. But the specimen sintered in ZnO muffling showed increased density and $\varepsilon$S1rT but lowerde QS1uT. Among the specimen investigated, expecially the composition added with 0.4wt% excess ZnO showed the most optimum dielectric values ($\varepsilon$S1rT=28, QS1uT x f=120000GHz) better than those of original Ba(ZnS11/2T TaS12/3T)OS13T ceramics.

The electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions of M(S-S,ph)(N-N,H) (M = Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II); (S-S,ph) = 1,2-diphenylethylenedithiolate; (N-N,H)=1,10-phenanthroline) complexes have been investigated. Reaction with norbornadiene depended upon the back donating ability of the central metal ion and produced 2,5-dithia-3,4-diphenyl-tricyclo[4,4,1,0]-undeca-3,8-diene. In the reaction with methyl iodide, the effect of cleavage of (N-N,H) ligand affected the yield of methylated $M(S-S,ph)_2$ product. The structure of the thermolysis product, ${\alpha},{\alpha}{\prime}$-bismethylthiostibene $(CH_3S-SCH_3,ph)$ of methylated complexes indicates that the main product of the nucleophilic reaction is $M(CH_3S-SCH_3,ph)(S-S,ph)$. We have synthesized a new mixed-ligand complex M(S-S,CN)(N-N,H)((S-S,CN) = 1,2-dicyanoethylenedithiolate) through the nucleophilic reaction of ligand.
