본 연구에서는 들깨의 불용성 및 수용성 식이 섬유소의 함량을 측정하였으며 들깨의 methanol 추출물, hexane 추출물, MSF 및 식이 섬유소를 추출하여 항돌연변이 효과를 관찰하였다. 들깨의 총 식이 섬유소의 함량은 신선물인 경우 17.2%였고 건조물인 경우 18.2%였으며 이 가운데 94%가 불용성식이 섬유소였다. 들깨의 용매 추출물 중에서 methanol 추출물과 MSF는 AFB$_{1}$에 의해 유발된 돌연변이를 상당히 억제시켰으며 methanol 추출물과 MSF를 2.5mg/assay 첨가군에서 각각 91%와 87%의 억제효과를 나타내었다. 그러나 같은 농도에서 SDF의 첨가군은 억제효과가 나타나지 않았고 hexane 추출물은 20%의 억제효과를 나타내었다. 한편 직접 돌연변이원인 MNNG를 돌연변이원으로 사용한 경우에 항돌연변이 효과는 크게 나타나지 않았다. 즉 SDF를 1.25mg/assay 첨가한 군은 17%, MSF 2.5mg/assay 첨가군은 27%의 저해율을 보였을 뿐 methanol과 hexane 추출물 첨가군은 억제효과를 나타내지 않았다. 따라서 들깨의 용매 추출물은 간접 돌연변이원에 의한 돌연변이성을 억제시키는 것을 알수 있었다. 또한 불용성 식이 섬유소의 경우 Trp-P-2에 의해 유발된 돌연변이를 다소(13~18%)억제 하는것을 알 수 있다.

The effect of garlic on glutathione S-transferase activity and the level of glutathione in the mouse liver was studied. the intraperitoneal injection of the methanol extract of garlic and ally sulfide which is one of possible active compounds in garlic to ICR mouse before the injection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) increased the levels of glutathione and nonprotein-SH in microsomal fraction of the livers. The injection of the chloroform fraction 2 which revealed the highest antimutgenic activity in our previous research in the increase of the activity of glutathione S-transferase and the levels of glutathione and nonprotein -SH. The glutathione itself also had the antimutagenic effect on AFB1 and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 in vitro.

Brining property and antimutagenic effects of organically cultivaged Chinese cabbage kimchi (OC kimchi) and common Chinese cabbage imchi (CC kimchi) were studied. The salt absorption rate of leaves was faster than that of stems of the Chinese cabbages. Due to the large portion of leaf in organic Chinese cabbage, organic Chinese cabbage(OC) was much faster in terms of salt absorption rate than common Chinese cabbage(CC). The antimutagenic effects of methanol extracts of CC kimchi and OC kimchi were studied against aflatoxin B1(AFB1) using Ames test on Samonella typhimurium TA 100 and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) using SOS chromotest. Methanol extract from 6 -day fermented OC kimchi at 15 $^{\circ}C$ showed 80% inhibition rate against the indirect mutage, aflatoxin B1 induced mutagenicit where as that from 6-day fermented CC kimchi at 15 $^{\circ}C$ showed 54% inhibition rate in the Ames test. Methanol extracts from 6-day fermented CC kimchi and OC kimchi showed 27 % and 58 % inhibition rate against direct mutagen , N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine induced mutagenicity, respectively in SOS chormotest, thus OC kimchi exhibited higher antimutagenic activity than kimchi.

Auxins are essential in plant growth and development. The auxin-stimulated elongation of plant cells has been explained by the "acid-growth theory", which was proposed forty years ago. According to this theory, the auxin activates plasma membrane $H^+-ATPase$ to induce proton extrusion into the apoplast, promoting cell expansion through the activation of cell wall-loosening proteins such as expansins. Even though accepted as the classical theory of auxin-induced cell growth for decades, the major signaling components comprising this model were unknown, until publication of recent reports. The major gap in the acid growth theory is the signaling mechanism by which auxin activates the plasma membrane $H^+-ATPase$. Recent genetic, molecular, and biochemical approaches reveal that several auxin-related molecules, such as TIR1/AFB AUX/IAA coreceptors and SMALL AUXIN UP RNA (SAUR), serve as important components of the acid-growth model, phosphorylating and subsequently activating the plasma membrane $H^+-ATPase$. These researches reestablish the four-decade-old theory by providing us the detailed signaling mechanism of auxininduced cell growth. In this review, we discuss the recent research progress in auxin-induced cell elongation, and a set of possible future works based on the reestablished acid-growth model.

In Pusan Paik Hospital, Inje University, we experienced 174 cases of pulmonary resections for pulmonary tuberculosis from Jun. 1979 to Feb. 1990. In all of them automatic stapling devices were used for division of lung parenchyme and /or bronchial closure. The results were as follows; l. In 174 cases[male 100, female 74], third and fourth decades were 116 cases [66.7%]. 2. Indications for lung resection in the radiographic findings were destroyed lung 47 cases[27.0%], destroyed lobe 42 cases[24.1%], cavitary lesions 42 cases[24.1%], tuberculoma 22 cases[12.7%], and bronchial lesions 21 cases[12.1%]. 3. The mean of staplers used in the operations was 1.6, and possible stapler-associated complications were only 2 cases of bronchopleural fistula after pneumonectomy. 4. Twenty-seven of 36 patients with bilateral lesions and 52 of unilateral ones on chest X-ray films were AFB positive on preoperative sputum smears. Twenty-three[85.2%] of bilateral lesions and 51[98.1%] of unilateral ones were AFB negative at 6 months after operations. 5. Main complications of resections were operative death 1[0.6%], empyema 4[2.3%], respiratory insufficiency 3[1.7%], pleural dead space 5[2.9%], and bronchial spreading of tuberculosis 2[1.1%]. Bronchopleural fistula were only 2 cases after pneumonectomy and none after lobectomy or segmentectomy. 6. One hundred and forty two patients[92.8%] of 153 with available follow-up data were in the state of good quality of life.

마늘의 메타놀 추출물을 클로로포름층과 수층으로 분획하여 각 추출물의 aflatoxin $B_1(AFB_1)$에 대한 항돌연변이 효과를 실험한 결과, Salmonella typhimurium TA98과 TA100에서 클로로포름층이 가장 효과가 크게 나타났다. 클로로포름층을 다시 silica gel column 및 thin layer 크로마토그라피를 사용하여 분리한 결과, 4개의 분획(ASC F1, 2, 3, 4)를 얻었는데, 이중 ASC F2가 $AFB_1$에 대해 항돌연변이 효과가 가장 컸었다. ASC F2로부터 18가지의 화합물이 GC-MS, NMR, FT-IR을 이용하여 잠정적으로 분리, 동정되었으며, 이중 methyl linoleate는 가장 다량으로 함유되어 있는 화합물이었다. Methyl linoleate 표준품의 항돌연변이 효과를 조사한 결과 효과가 매우 큰 것으로 나타났다.

Background: Vitamin D is known to have diverse effects on various systems in the body. There is evidence to suggest that a link exists between the serum vitamin D status and tuberculosis. The present study was designed to assess the alterations in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in newly diagnosed sputum acid fast bacilli (AFB) positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients and to study the association, if any, between serum vitamin D levels and different levels of sputum smear positivity. Methods: Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were estimated in 65 sputum AFB positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 65 age and gender-matched healthy controls. Results: The levels of serum 25 hydroxy-vitamin D in tuberculosis patients were not statistically different from the levels of serum 25 hydroxy-vitamin D in healthy controls. However, among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, there was a significant negative correlation between the levels of serum 25 hydroxy-vitamin D and levels of sputum positivity. Conclusion: Serum vitamin D levels negatively correlates with bacterial load in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis.

Mycotoxins such as aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), ochratoxin A (OTA) and zearalenone (ZEA) are widespread contaminants of food and feedstuffs. It is very likely, that humans and animals are always exposed to mixtures of mycotoxins rather than to individual compounds. Therefore, risk assessments should consider mixture toxicity data. In the present study the combination of AFB1, OTA and ZEA was tested for genotoxicity in rat bone marrow and blood leukocytes after 15, 30 and 60 days treatment. The level of DNA damage was determined by the comet assay. The tail intensity and Olive tail moment in leukocytes and bone marrow cells were significantly higher than in controls. At the same time, the level of DNA damage in bone marrow cells was higher than in leukocytes. The data suggests that prolonged exposure to mycotoxins combination through food consumption can induce DNA damage contributing to the harmful effects in vivo.

Aflatoxins are produced by Aspergillus flavus, parasiticus and their related fungi that grow in improperly stored foods such as com, rice, peanuts and other cereals. In addition to its high mutagenicity and cytotoxicity, aflatoxin B$_1$ (AFB$_1$) is a potent hepatocarcinogen in experimental animals and an important factor for the human liver cancer. In spite of a high attention to the hepatocarcinogenicity of aflatoxins, the relative toxicity, for the risk assessment, of other types (AFB$_2$, AFG$_1$ and AFG$_2$) of the toxin was not fully studies.(omitted)
