본 연구는 황기의 최적의 볶음 공정을 하였을 때 항산화 활성의 변화를 확인하기 위해 DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging assay, 총 폴리페놀 함량 및 calycosin, formononetin과 이의 배당체인 calycosin-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside, Formononetin7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside의 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 UVB 처리로 산화적 스트레스를 유발한 HDF 세포에 추출물을 처리하여 DNA의 손상을 억제하는지 확인하였다. DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging assay 는 2R-AM 추출물에서 항산화 활성이 가장 좋았으며, 총 폴리페놀 함량은 1R-AM 추출물이 NR-AM과 비교하였을 때 월등히 증가하였지만, 2R-AM과 3R-AM과는 크게 차이가 없었다. 볶음 공정을 통한 황기는 calycosin와 formononetin의 함량이 2R-AM 추출물에서 가장 높게 측정되었다. HDF 세포에서 추출물들은 $200{\mu}g/mL$까지 독성을 나타내지 않았으며, 추출물 모두 자외선에 의해 손상된 HDF 세포에서 DNA 보호효능을 유의성 있게 증가시켰다. 특히 2R-AM 추출물의 활성은 정상세포와 유사한 수준으로 보호효과를 나타내었다. 결과를 종합해봤을 때, 볶음공정을 통한 황기 추출물은 지표 성분의 변화로 인하여 자외선에 의한 피부보호효과를 증가하였을 것이라 판단되며 이는 건강기능식품이나 화장품 원료로써 가능성을 시사한다.

Objectives: Nowadays cancer treatment is an important challenge in the medical world that needs better therapies. Many active secretions produced by insects such as honey bees used to discover new anticancer drugs. Bee venom (BV) has a potent anti inflammatory, anti cancer and tumor effects. The aim of present study is evaluation of anticancer effects induced by Apis mellifera venom (AmV) on cell Lines. Methods: AmV was selected for study on cancer cell lines. Total protein, molecular weight and LD50 of crude venom were determined. Then, cells were grown in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% antibiotics. The A549, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cell Lines were exposed by different concentration of AmV. The morphology of cells was determined and cell viability was studed by MTT assay. Evaluation of cell death was determined by and DNA fragmentation. Results: The results from MTT assay showed that 3.125 ㎍/mL of A549, 12.5 for HeLa and 6.25 ㎍/mL of MDA-MB-231 killed 50% of cells (p < 0.05). Morphological analysis and the results from hoescht staining and DNA fragmentation indicated that cell death induced by AmV was significantly apoptosis. Conclusion: The data showed that using lower dosage of AmV during treatment period cause inhibition of proliferation in time and dose dependant manner. Findings indicated that some ingredients of AmV have anticancer effects and with further investigation it can be used in production of anticancer drugs.

본 논문에서는 전력증폭기의 선형성을 개선하기위해서 전력증폭기에서 발생되는 왜곡을 해석하여 전력 증폭기의 선형성 개선 개념을 제시하고 검증하였다. 연구에서는 전력증폭기를 구동 증폭기와 종단 증폭기로 구분하여 종단 증폭기에서 발생되는 비선형 왜곡 성분을 구동증폭기의 왜곡성분으로 상쇄시키는 개념이 제시된다. 본 논문에서 전력증폭기의 AM to AM은 Power Series로 해석하였으며, AM to PM 왜곡은 Bessel 함수를 이용하여 해석하였다. 본 개념을 검증하기 위하여 셀룰라 대역의 30W 전력 증폭기를 구현하여 검증하였다. 설계 및 제작된 전력 증폭기는 z대역에서 30W@20FA 출력할 경우 스퓨리어스 특성이 51dBc @ 1FA,$20FA{\pm}1.98MHz$의 특성을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 10dE의 스퓨리어스 특성 개선을 보였다.

Platelet-activating factor(PAF) is a phospholipid mediator of pulmonary inflammation, and immunologic reaction. In this study, the role of PAF on tumor necrosis factor$(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production by rat alveolar macrophages(AM) was examined. When PAF $(10^{-12}{\sim}10{-16}\;M)$ alone was added to AM culture, $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production was not significantly increased above the resting level. In contrast, the combined addition of PAF $(10^{-6}\;M)$ and muramyl dipeptide(MDP) $(1.0\;{\mu}g\ml)$ to AM cultures markedly enhanced $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production with 8.2 fold increase compared with AM culture in resting state. This potentiative effect was 313% above the sum of the separate effects of PAF and MDP. To characterize MDP effects on $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production, the dose-response of AM cultured with various concentrations of MDP was tested. High level of MDP $(10\;{\mu}g\ml)$ could not significantly enhance the potentiation effect on $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production compared with AM cultures with low level of MDP $(0.1\;{\mu}g\ml)$, i.e. 112.5% vs 107.8%, respectively when $10^{-10}$ M of PAF was simultaneously added to the cell culture. These data support that the potentiation of TNF. g production in AM culture is mediated by PAF rather than MDf It was also evaluated whether the similar result was obtained in silica, respirable toxic particle-treated AM culture. $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production was also significantly enhanced in the PAF $(10^{-6}\;M)$ and silica $(50\;{\mu}g\ml)$-added cell cultures with 4.7 fold above the value of silica alone-stimulated cells. These results indicate that PAF can potentiate $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production by MDP-or silica- stimulated AM and suggest that PAF may play a potent role in lung inflammation and disease associated with microbe and occupational dust exposures.

화이트 클로버에서 마이코라이자 접종이 가뭄스트레스와 관련된 생리학적 요인들을 조사하기 위하여, 마이코라이자 접종 (AM) 또는 비접종구에서 정상관수 (WW) 또는 가뭄 스트레스 처리 (DS)하여 7일동안 주기적으로 잎 수분포텐셜, 상대수분함량, 건물중, 광합성효율, 증산, 기공전도성, 프롤린 및 암모니아 함량을 각각 측정하였다. 모든 조사항목에서 정상적인 관수조건 (대조구)에서는 전 시험기간 중 변화가 매우 적었으며, 마이코라이자 접종에 의한 변화도 매우 낮았다. 반면, 가뭄 스트레스 조건하에서 마이코라이자 비접종구에서는 처리 후 지속적으로 감소하여 처리 7일차에서 잎 수분포텐셜, 상대수분함량, 광합성효율, 증산 및 기공 전도성이 처리일 기준 68.6%, 22.7%, 97.7%, 83.9%, 84.9%로 각각 감소하였으나, 마이코라이자 접종에 의해 각각 그 감소비율이 각각 46.8%, 13.4%, 50.3%, 44.8%, 54.7%로 경감되었다. 암모니아 및 프롤린함량은 가뭄 스트레스 처리 7일후에 마이코라이자 비접종식물에서는 31.8% 및 162%로 각각 증가하였으나, 마이코라이자 접종식물에서는 각각 20.9% 및 76.9%로 그 증가비율이 상대적으로 낮았다. 이러한 결과들은 화이트 클로버에서 마이코라이자 접종이 가뭄처리에 의해 유도되는 스트레스 관련 생리적 요인을 유의적으로 경감시킬 수 있음을 잘 보여준다.

Results from an innovative approach to improve remediation in the rhizosphere by encouraging healthy plant growth and thus enhancing microbial activity are reported. The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Am) on remediation efficacy of wheat, mungbean and eggplant grown in soil spiked with polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) was assessed in a pot experiment. The results of this study showed that Am inoculation enhanced dissipation amount of PAHs in planted soil, plant uptake PAHs, dissipation amount of PAHs in planted versus unplanted spiked soil and loss of PAHs by the plant-promoted biodegradation. A number of parameters were monitored including plant shoot and root dry weight, plant tissue water content, plant chlorophyll, root lipid content, oxido-reductase enzyme activities in plant and soil rhizosphere and total microbial count in the rhizospheric soil. The observed physiological data indicate that plant growth and tolerance increased with Am, but reduced by PAH. This was reflected by levels of mycorrhizal root colonization which were higher for mungbean, moderate for wheat and low for eggplant. Levels of Am colonization increased on mungbean > wheat > eggplant. This is consistent with the efficacy of plant in dissipation of PAHs in spiked soil. Highly significant positive correlations were shown between of arbuscular formation in root segments (A)) and plant water content, root lipids, peroxidase, catalase polyphenol oxidase and total microbial count in soil rhizosphere as well as PAH dissipation in spiked soil. As consequence of the treatment with Am, the plants provide a greater sink for the contaminants since they are better able to survive and grow.
