목적 : 본 연구에서는 알코올 독성에 대하여 흰쥐의 치상회에서 새로운 신경세포의 생성 및 nitric oxide synthase (NOS) 발현에 인삼이 미치는 영향을 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) 면역 조직 화학법 및 nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) 조직화학법을 통해서 관찰하고자 한다. 방법 : 실험동물을 정상군, 인삼처치군, 알코올처치군 및 알코올-인삼 처치군으로 분류하여 각각의 실험군에 3일간 BrdU (50mg/kg)를 복강주사하였다. 인삼처치군은 30mg/kg 용량의 인삼 전탕액을 중완혈에 약침주사하였고, 알코올 처치군은 2 g/kg 용량의 알코올을 투여하였으며. 알코올-인삼 처치군은 2 g/kg 용량의 알코올 및 30mg/kg 용량의 인삼 전탕액을 투여한 후 각각의 BrdU 양성 세포수와 NADPH-d 양성세포수를 관찰하였다. 결과 : 알코올 투여군은 BrdU 양성세포 및 NADPH-d 양성세포 발현이 감소하였으나, 인삼 및 알코올 인삼처치군에서는 알코올 투여군에 비해서 모두 증가하였다. 결론 : 인삼은 알코올에 의해서 유발된 새로운 신경세포 생성의 감소에 대하여 보호효과가 있으며, 알코올에 의해서 부가적으로 영향 받는 산화질소는 세포생성 조절에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 사려된다.

Metallothioneins(MTs) belong to the class of low molecular weight proteins. Recently, it has been suggested that MTs may playa direct role in cellular defense against oxidative stress by functioning as antioxidants. Oxidative damage to different cellular components makes a major contribution to many pathogenenesses. Several studies have demonstrated that MT is able to quench a wide range of reactive oxygen species at a higher efficiency than other well known antioxidants such as superoxide dismutate(SOD). The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of MT on the activities of the reactive oxygen species removal system. MT showed the scavenging of superoxide in the SOD assay system in the presence or absence of SOD. When MT was added to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADPH) oxidation system in presence of fixed amount of SOD increase the breakdown rate of superoxide. When MT was added to the system that form nitrite from hydroxylammonium chloride, the formation of nitrite was inhibit. We concluded that the function of MT as antioxidant might have an effect on the level of superoxide scavenging.

5'-GMP의 직접발효생산균주의 분리목적으로 Breuibacterium ammoniagenes ATCC 6871에 자외선조사 및 NTG, DES 등의 변이제처리를 한 결과 guanine계 핵산관련물질을 직접 배지중에 축적하는 변이주는 분리할 수 없었으며, adenine영양요구주로써 GMP-reductase가 결핍되고 adenosine 및 AMP에 의해 생육저해를 받지 않는 변이주가 XMP-aminase activity가 현저히 높았음을 알았다. 이러한 변이주중 BA-17-2가 XMP-aminase의 activity가 가장 높았으며 또한 전환된 5'-GMP를 GDP나 GTP로 거의 인산화하지 않았으며 그리고 guanosine이나 guanine으로 분해하지 않았다. 생성된 5'-GMP를 anion exchange resin Duolite 102 D를 사용하여 분리하고 ultraviolet 및 Infra-red spectrum을 조사한 결과 5'-GMP로 동정되었다.

본 논문은 DNA coding 방법과 Genetic Algorithm(GA)을 사용하여 numeric(0~9) 패턴인식 성능을 비교 평가하였다. 이진스트링의 개체 집단 위에서 모의진화를 일으켜 효율적으로 최적 해를 탐색하는 GA와, 생체 분자인 DNA를 계산의 도구 및 정보 저장도구로 사용하며, Adenine(A), Cytosine(C), Guanine(G), Thymine(T)등의 4가지 염기를 사용하는 DNA coding 방법을 이용하여 numeric 패턴인식을 수행하였다. DNA coding 방법과 GA의 성능을 비교 평가하기 위해서 selection, crossover, mutation 등의 GA연산자를 DNA coding에 동일하게 적용하였다. 실험결과, DNA coding 방법은 GA보다 효과적으로 패턴인식을 수행하였다. GA에 비해 DNA coding 방법의 장점은 스트링의 길이가 가변적이고 해의 중복성을 가지며, 4가지 염기를 이용하기 때문에 해 표현이 다양함을 가지고 있다.

A significant portion (about 8% in human genome) of mammalian mRNA sequences contains AU(Adenine and Uracil) rich elements or AREs at their 3' untranslated regions (UTR). These mRNA sequences are usually stable. ARE motifs are assorted into three classes. The importance of AREs in biology is that they make certain mRNA unstable. We analyzed the occurrences of AREs and Alu, and propose a possible mechanism on how human mRNA could acquire and keep A REs at its 3' UTR originated from Alu repeats. Interspersed in the human genome, Alu repeats occupy 5% of the 3' UTR of mRNA sequences. Alu has poly-adenine (poly-A) regions at the end that lead to poly -thymine (poly-T) regions at the end of its complementary Alu. It has been discovered that AREs are present at the poly -T regions. In the all ARE's classes, 27-40% of ARE repeats were found in the poly -T region of Alu with mismatch allowed within 10% of ARE's length from the 3' UTRs of the NCBI's reference m RNA sequence database. We report that Alu, which has been reported as a junk DNA element, is a source of AREs. We found that one third of AREs were derived from the poly -T regions of the complementary Alu.

A protocol has been developed for rapid large scale clonal propagation of an aromatic endangered medicinal plant, Hemidesmus indicus R. Br. with the elimination of the problems such as premature leaf fall and callus formation during caulogenesis and rhizogenesis. Multiple shoots were induced from shoot tip and nodal explants on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1 mg/L Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and 0.5 mg/L Napthaleneaceticacid (NAA). Addition of 15 mg/L adenine sulphate to the above medium checked leaf abscission completely, reduced the time required for caulogenesis and restored morphogenetic potential after several subcultures. The in vitro grown propagules were rooted in 1/2 MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L Indolebutyric acid (IBA) +1 mg/L NAA and sucrose 0.7% (w/v). Addition of charcoal at 100 mg/L to the rooting medium quickened root initiation with a complete check on callus formation. The effect of sucrose concentration on both caulogenesis and rhizogenesis was also studied. The resultant plantlets were acclimatized and grown in fields where ninety eight percent of the rooted shoots survived and grew normally. The estimation of the secondary metabolite content in the shoots of the regenerated plant and the mother plant indicated that the concentration of the three secondary metabolites lupeol, vanillin and rutin was similar.

본 연구는 지질의 과산화에 대한 항산화 효과를 조사하기 위하여 엉겅퀴(Silybum marianum)로부터 silymarin 및 silybin을 정제하여 실험하였다. Silymarin 및 silybin은 xanthine oxidase system에서 superoxide anion의 생성을 억제하였다. 쥐의 간 mitochondria에서는 silymarin 및 silybin은 reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADPH)에 의해 효과적 또는 ascorbic acid 또는 Fenton's reagent에 의하여 비효소적으로 유도되는 지질의 과산화를 억제하였다. 또 mitochondria의 지질과산화도 silymarin 및 silybin에 의하여 억제되었고 NADPH 의존 cychrome P-450 reductase에 의한 Fe2+의 산화도 silymarin 및 silybin에 의하여 억제되었다. Silymarin 및 silybin은 microsome의 효소 시스템 및 linoleic acid hydroperoxide induced peroxidation system에서 지질의 과산화의 연쇄반응에서 유리기의 억제효과가 있었다.

The aim of this study was to investigate effects on joint mobilization in neurochemical changes of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) of the spinal cord neurons after right knee joint immobilization (RKJI) and in ultrastructural changes of the femoral nerves innervating the muscles acting on RKJI. A total of 15 guinea pigs were used and divided into 5 groups. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect NADPH-d and NOS. NADPH-d and NOS were not expressed in the ventral horn of control and experimental groups, but were expressed or not in the dorsal horn according to the duration of release after RKJI and the presence or absence of joint mobilization. Ultrastructures of the femoral nerves in experimental groups had partial demyelination and condensed clumps in axon. Effects on manipulative therapy after RKJI were confirmed from expression of NADPH-d and NOS in the dorsal horn of the lumbosacral spinal cord. Manipulative therapy was more effective against a long-term immobilization than a short-term immobilization.
