  • As a new host material for a red phosphor for PDP applications, has studied (Y,Gd)$Al_3(BO_3)_4$ which gives non-centrosymmetric sites for $Eu^{3+}$ activators. Vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) excitation spectrum of new red phosphor (Y,Gd)$Al_3(BO_3)_4$:$Eu^{3+}$ has two broad bands. One band with the absorption edge at ca. 168 nm is the band-gap absorption of aluminoborate and the other broad band centered 240 nm is the charge transfer transition between $Eu^{3+}$ and the neighboring oxygen anions. The PL spectrum shows the strongest emission at 617 nm due to the electric dipole $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$, whose luminescent chromaticity is (0.67, 0.33).

  • The effect of variation of pack activators, compositions, temperature and time on the thickness and structure of aluminide coatings formed on the TiAl alloy was studied in one-step packs and two-step packs containing aluminum for the purpose of improvement of oxidation resistance. The thickness of coating layer was increased with increasing $NH_4Cl$ content up to 3wt% and then it was saturated. Oxidation resistance of coating layers carried out at one step pack was superior to that of ones through of two step pack. The improvement of high temperature oxidation resistance was due to the formation of a protective $Al_2O_3$ surface layers and coating the alloys with $TiAl_3$ phase.

  • The physical properties of rubber compounds containing silica and siliane coupling agent in order to replace the carbon black and prepare for environmental regulation showed improved dynamic properties(rebound, heat build-up, $60^{\circ}C\;tan\;{\delta}$), but the abrasion resistance did not improve compared with the compounds containing carbon black. Also, curing retardation because of coherent structure of silica improved by the addition of DEG, but the mixing step change of activators did not so much improve the static and dynamic properties of the compounds containing high synthetic rubber, the status of mixing and dispersion showed that the compounds containing carbon black was much better than the compounds containing silica by TEM investigation.

  • Compounds extracted from Platycodon grandiflorum were evaluated for an activation effect on nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-${\kappa}B$). In its active state, NF-${\kappa}B$ turns on the expression of genes related to cell proliferation or death. NF-${\kappa}B$ activators promote growth of neuron cells and can be used to control neurodegenerative diseases. The biological activity of P. grandiflorum extracts toward NF-${\kappa}B$ had not yet been studied. Although the biological activity of several compounds extracted from P. grandiflorum was evaluated, only three exhibited any significant activation effect on NF-${\kappa}B$.

  • This Study is based on manufacture non-sintering cement(NSC) by adding phosphogysum and waste lime to GBFS as sulfate and alkali activators. This study also investigates the basic physical properties and duality of NSC, and evaluates its reusing possibility as construction materials. Therefore, we design 40MPa and 60MPa for compressive strength using OPC and NSC by binder. And There is a purpose to present fundamental data, applying in field and analyzing quality control of concrete using NSC according to rate of replace between OPC and NSC.

  • Although alteration in protein phosphorylation by specific protein kinases is of importance in transducing cellular signals in a variety of neural/endocrine systems, little is known about protein phosphorylation in the hvpothalamus. The present study aims to explore whether activation of the second messenger-dependent protein kinases affects phosphorylation of specific proteins using a cell free phosphorylation system followed by SDS-polvacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Cytoplasmic fractions derived from hvpothalami of immature rats were used as substrates and several activators and/or inhibitors of CAMP-, phosphatidylinositol- and Ca2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinases were assessed. Many endogenous proteins were extensively phosphorylated and depending on the signal transduction pathways, phosphorvlation profiles were markedly different. The present data indicate that extracellular signals may affect cellular events through protein phosphorylation by second messengers-protein kinases in the rat hypothalamus.

  • Protein kinase modulation of gamma-aminobutyric acid C (GABA$_{c}$) currents in freshly dissociated catfish retinal cone-horizontal cell axon-terminals was studied under voltage clamp with the use of the whole cell patch-clamp technique. Responses to pulses of GABA were monitored in intracellular application of adenosin 3',5'-cycle monophophate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) activators, and their inhibitors or inactive analogues.(omitted)d)

  • The transcriptional regulation of genes determines the fate of animal cell differentiation and subsequent organ development. With the recent progress in genome-wide technologies, the genomic landscapes of enhancers have been broadly explored in mammalian genomes, which led to the discovery of novel specific subsets of enhancers, termed super-enhancers. Super-enhancers are large clusters of enhancers covering the long region of regulatory DNA and are densely occupied by transcription factors, active histone marks, and co-activators. Accumulating evidence points to the critical role that super-enhancers play in cell type-specific development and differentiation, as well as in the development of various diseases. Here, I provide a comprehensive description of the optimal approach for identifying functional units of super-enhancers and their unique chromatin features in normal development and in diseases, including cancers. I also review the recent updated knowledge on novel approaches of targeting super-enhancers for the treatment of specific diseases, such as small-molecule inhibitors and potential gene therapy. This review will provide perspectives on using super-enhancers as biomarkers to develop novel disease diagnostic tools and establish new directions in clinical therapeutic strategies.

  • The object of this research is to develop a carbon molecular sieve(below CMS) which can separate selectively to convert mixture gases spout at waste landfill into fuel. And this research is meaningful from the viewpoint of a quality improvement of CH$_4$ gas and an utilization of by-product. CMS was prepared using coconut shell powder as starting material and the effects of activators, temperature and modifier on the reaction were investigated in this research. Also, pore diameter, surface area of CMS and adsorption rate were measured and studied by cahn balance and ASAP2010. Its specific surface area and pore distribution were controlled easily at 800^{\circ}C and adsorption rate was very good. The CMS prepared in this research is shown to be able to separate landfill gases very effectively.

  • The discharge of fly ash that is produced by coal-fired electric power plants is rapidly increasing in Korea. The utilization of fly ash in the raw materials would contribute to the elimination of an environmental problem and to the development of new high-performance materials. So it is needed to study the binder obtained by chemically activation of pozzolanic materials by means of a substitute for the exiting cement. This paper concentrated on the strength development according to the kind of chemical activators, the curing temperature, the heat curing time. Also Scanning electron microscopy and X-Ray diffraction analysis show what the reaction products of the alkali activated fly ash are.
