Opioid수용체는 adenylate cyclase의 활성을 억제하므로써 cyclic AMP의 양을 감소시킨다. 본 연구에서는 striatum에서 dopamine과 opioid 신경전달계의 상호관계를 알아보고자 haloperidol(750ug/kg)을 10일간 복강내 투여하여 dopaminergic pathway를 차단시킨후 mouse striatum에서 선택적 opioid ${\mu},\;{\gamma}\;{\kappa}$ 수용체 agonist들에 의해 축적되는 cAMP양을 측정하여 본 결과, haloperidol단독투여에 의해서 cAMP는 유의한 증가를 나타내었으며, haloperidol 장기투여된 mouse striatum 에서 morphine(20mg/kg), DAGO(5Oug/kg), DPDPE(50ug/kg), U5O,488H (500ug/kg)투여에 의해서 haloperidol에 의한 cAMP 증가는 억제되었으며, 정상 mouse에 투여된 morphine, DAGO, DPDPE, U5O,488H에 비해서는 DAGO, DPDPE 투여군에서 증가를 나타내었다. Haloperidol장기투여로 인한 morphine, DAGO, DPDPE, U5O,488H의 영향은 naloxone에 의해서 morphine과 U5O, 488H투여군에서 길항되었으며 정상 mouse에 투여된 morphine, DAGO, DPDPE, U5O,488H에 의한 cAMP의 감소는 naloxone에 의하여 모든 실험군에서 길항되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 dopaminergic denervation시 mouse striatum에서 ${\mu},\;{\gamma},\;{\kappa}$효현제에 의하여 축적되는 cAMP양은 ${\kappa}$수용체 효현제인 U5O,488H에서 가장 현저한 감소를 보여 각 수용체의 활성화정도는 변화되며, 그중에서 ${\kappa}$수용체는 그 기능이 가장 보존되고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

It has been reported that the luteal function may be regulated by the intracellular $Ca^{++}$ level which may be adjusted partially by the high affinity $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ in luteal cell membranes. Then, one may expect that luteotropic and/or luteolytic agents, such as gonadotropins, prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}\;(PGF_{2{\alpha}})$ and ouabain, affect the intracellular $Ca^{++}$ level. In this present study, therefore, we examined the effects of luteinizing hormone (LH, or human chorionic gonadotropin, hCG), $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ and ouabain on the kinetic properties of the high affinity $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ in light membrane, heavy membrane, and microsomal fractions from the highly luteinized ovary. LH (or hCG) increased the affinity and the Vmax for $Ca^{++}$ both in light membrane and heavy membrane. $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ increased the Vmax in light membrane and decreased the Km in heavy membrane for $Ca^{++}$ at low concentration $(5\;{\mu}g/ml)$. At higher concentration, however, $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ oppositly affected on kinetic properties, that shown at low concentration. Ouabain, a potent inhibitor of $Na^+-K^+-ATPase$, increased the Km at high concentration $(10^{-4}\;M)$, however, decreased the Vmax for $Ca^{++}$ in light membrane at low concentration $(10^{-6}\;M)$. Also, ouabain increased the Km for $Ca^{++}$ in heavy membrane without changes in the Vmax at both concentrations. It seems that LH and low dose of $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ increase the intracellular $Ca^{++}$ level and cause in activation of $Ca^{++}-ATPase$, however, higher dose of $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ and ouabain inhibit directly $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ activity and result in increase in intracellular $Ca^{++}$ level. According to the above results, we suggest that luteotropic and/or luteolytic agents regulate the luteal progesterone $(P_4)$ production through two different pathways; one is cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent and another is $Ca^{++}-dependent$. Intracellula. $Ca^{++}$ level regulated by the high affinity $Ca^{++}-ATPase$ may affect both pathways in a time-dependent fashion. LH (or hCG) acts on the luteal $P_4$ production via both pathways. The initial step is $Ca^{++}$ dependent, and the late step is cAMP dependent. $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ and ouabain increase the intracellular $Ca^{++}$ concentration so that basal luteal $P_4$ production is increased and LH-stimulated $P_4$ production is inhibited by the inhibiting LH-dependent adenylate cyclase activity.

P2X receptors are membrane-bound ion channels that conduct $Na^+,\;K^+$, and $Ca^{2+}$ in response to ATP and its analogs. There are seven subunits identified so far ($P2X_1-P2X_7$). $P2X_2$ receptors are known to be expressed in a wide range of organs including brains and adrenal grands. PC12 cells are originated from adrenal grand and differentiated by nerve growth factor or pituitary adenylate cyclase activating poly peptide (PACAP). Previous studies indicate that $P2X_2$ receptor activation in PC12 cells couples to $Ca^{2+}-dependent$ release of catecholamine and ATP. It is known that acidic pH potentiates ATP currents at $P2X_2$ receptors. This leads to a hypothesis that $P2X_2$ receptors may play an important role in PC12 cell differentiation, one of the characteristics of which is neurite outgrowth, induced by the hormones under lower pH. In the present study, we isolated several clones which potentiate neurite outgrowth by PACAP in acidic pH (6.8), but not in alkaline pH (7.6). RT-PCR and electrophysiology data indicate that these clones express only functional $P2X_2$ receptors in the absence or presence of PACAP for 3 days. Potentiation of neurite outgrowth resulted from PACAP (100 nM) in acidic pH is inhibited by the two P2X receptor antagonists, suramin and PPADS ($100\;{\mu}M)$ each), and exogenous exprerssion of ATP-binding mutant $P2X_2$ receptor subunit ($P2X_2[K69A]$). However, acid sensing ion channels (ASICs) are not involved in PACAP-induced neurite outgrowth potentiation in lower pH since treatments of an inhibitor of ASICs, amyloride ($10\;{\mu}M$), did not give any effects to neurite extension. The vesicular proton pump ($H^+-ATPase$) inhibitor, bafilomycin (100 nM), reduced neurite extension indicating that ATP release resulted from $P2X_2$ receptor activation in PC12 cells is needed for neurite outgrowth. These were confirmed by activation of mitogen activated protein kinases, such as ERKs and p38. These results suggest roles of ATP and $P2X_2$ receptors in hormone-induced cell differentiation or neuronal synaptogenesis in local acidic environments.

CCK and cholinergic agonist stimulate enzyme release from the pancreatic acini via G-protein-mediated activation of phospholipase C, In contrast secretin and related peptides increase the level of cAMP and activate cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Camostat, a synthetic protease inhibitor, causes pancreatic hypertrophy and hyperplasia by increasing the CCK release. In this study, the secretagogue-induced changes of intracellular proteins were examined in the dispersed pancreatic acini of rats with or without camostat treatment. Camostat(FOY-305, 200 mg/kg, p.o.) was given for 4 days twice daily and the dispersed acini were prepared at 12 bouts after last treatment. The profiles of Intracellular phosphoproteins were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis after incubating the acini with $^{32}P$. The amylase release from the dispersed acini was measured. The pancreatic weight was increased to 126% of control, while amylase activity per mg acinar protein decreased to 41% of control, The maximum response of amylase release from dispersed acini to CCK-8 or carbachol was markedly decreased(65% or 46% of control, respectively). The group of intracellular proteins(24 kD, pI $4.5{\sim}8.5$) was increased in quantity by camostat. CCK-8 or secretin increased phosphorylation of a protein(34 kD, pI 4.7) in camostat-treated as well as control rats. CCK-8 increased tyrosine phosphoryiation in the acini of control rats. However, in camostat-treated rats, the basal level of tyrosine phosphorylation was increased and it was rather decreased by CCK-8. Secretin had no effect on the level of tyrosine phosphorylation in acini. These results indicate that both phospholipase C and adenylate cyclase induce phosphorylation of an intracellular acinar protein(34 kD, pI 4.7) and camostat treatment increases the basal level of tyrosine phosphorylation in acinar cells. And these results suggest that not only serine/threonine protein kinase but also protein tyrosine kinase/phosphatase are involved in the process of CCK receptor mediated stimulation-secrelion coupling.

북방산개구리의 여포를 인공배양하면서 여포의 progesterone(p$_4$) 의 생성양상과 cAMP의 조절작용을 조사하여 보았다. 배양중인 여포에 뇌하수체 추출물(frog pituitary homogenate,FPH)을 처리하였을 때 배양 한시간 부터 여포내 p$_4$의 양이 급격히 증가하였다. 그러나 생성된 p$_4$의 최대양이나(약 60-300pg/follicle),peak를 이루는 시간이(2시간 이후)개체에 따라 차이가 있었다. FPH의 처리를 받지않은 대조군에서는 배양기간에 관계없이 여포내에서 대략 10pg/follicle정도의 p$_4$가 측정되었으나 예외인 개체도 있었다. 배양액내로 분비된 p$_4$의 양은 여포내에 생성된p$_4$양의 약 60%정도 이었다. 배양액에 adenlate cyclass의 촉진제인 forskolin이나phosphodiesterase의 저해제인 3-isoburyl-1- methylxanthine(IBMX)을 동시에 혹은 따로 처리하면 p$_4$의 생성과 분비가 역시 증가하며 모든 양상이 FPH의 자극에 의한 것과 거의 같았다. 따라서 개구리여포의 스테로이드생성은 cAMP를 통하여 조절된다는 것과 여포세포내에는 cAMP의 생성과 분해에 관계하는 효소들이 있다는 것을 알았다.

연수의 세로토닌 신경계는 내재성 하행성 동통 억제계 (endogenous descending pain inhibitory system) 에 있어서 중추적인 역할을 하고 있다. 연수의 세로토닌 신경세포에 대한 cholecystokinin (CCK) 및 second messenger systems에 작용하는 약물들의 작용을 알아보기 위하여, 쥐의 태자 (태생 14일) 로부터 연수를 분리하여 10동안 배양한 후 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)의 분비에 대한 cholecystokinin (CCK) 및 second messenger systems에 작용하는 약물의 영향을 연구하였다. 배양 10일된 세포에 여러 neuropeptide들을 $10{\mu}M$ 농도로 48 시간동안 자극한 결과, CCK 와 substance P에 의하여 5-HT의 분비가 증가됨을 관찰하였다. Somatostatin, proctolin, thyrotropin releasing hormone, 및 interleukin-6 은 5-HT의 분비에 있어서 아무런 영향이 없었다. 어떠한 second messenger가 CCK에 의한 5-HT 분비에 연관되어 있나를 알아보기 위하여 calcium channel 봉쇄제인 nimodipine, 그리고 calmodulin 길항제인 calmidazolium의 영향을 살펴본 결과 nimodipine ($1{\mu}M$)은 거의 완전하게, 그리고 calmidazolium ($1{\mu}M$)은 부분적으로 유의하게 CCK에 의한 5-HT의 분비를 억제하였다. 또한 adenyl cyclase의 활성도를 높이는 forskolin ($5{\mu}M$)은 5-HT의 분비를 증가시켰지만 protein kinase C(PKC)를 활성화시키는 phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)는 $2{\mu}M$ 농도에서 5-HT의 분비에 아무런 영향을 미치지 아니하였다. 이상의 연구결과, calcium channel을 통한 calcium influx와 세포내 calmodulin이 CCK에 의한 5-HT분비 증가에 있어서 중요한 역할을 함을 제시한다. 또한, 5-HT의 분비에 있어서 cyclic AMP system이 중요한 역할을 하나, PKC system은 5-HT의 분비에 연관이 없음을 제시하고 있다.

To evaluate the clinical and pathogenetic roles of TSH receptor antibodies in autoimmune thyroid diseases, TBII were measured by TSH-radioreceptor assay methods in 352 patients with Graves' disease, 108 patients with other thyroid diseases and 69 normal persons. The normal range of TBII activity was less than 15%. The frequencies of detectable TBII in 169 patients with untreated Graves' disease, 31 patients with hyperthyroidism under treatment and 70 patients with euthyrodism under treatment were 92.4%, 87.1% and 54.3% respectively. However 12 (21.8%) out of 55 patients who have been in remission more than one year after discontinuation of antithyroid drugs treatment had detectable TBII activities in their sera. In 196 patients with untreated Graves' disease, the frequency of TBII increased by increasing size of goiter and the frequency of proptosis was significantly high in patients whose TBII activities were more than 60%. TBII activities were roughly correlated with total $T_3,\;T_4$ and free $T_4$ index but low $\gamma^2$ value(less than 0.1). In 67 patients with Graves' disease who were positive TBII before antithyroid drugs treatment, TBII activities began to decrease from the third months and it was converted to negative in 35.8% of patients at 12 months after treatment. There were no significant differences of the declining and disappearing rates of TBII activities between high dose and conventional dose groups. TBII activities were significantly increased initially (2-4 months) and then began to decrease from 5-9 months after $^{131}I$ treatment. There were two groups, one whose TBII activities decreased gradually and the other did not change untill 12 months after subtotal thyroidectomy. Although preoperative clinical and laboratory findings of both groups were not different, TBII activities of non-decreasing group were significantly higher than those of decreasing group$(74.6{\pm}18.6%\;vs\;39.2{\pm}15.2%;\;P<0.01)$. Thirty three(55.9%) out of 59 patients with Graves' disease relapsed within 1 year after discontinuation of antithyroid drugs. The positive rate of TBII at the end of antithyroid drug treatment in relapse group(n=33) was significantly higher than those in remission group (n=26) (63.6% vs 23.1%; P < 0.05). The mean value of TBII activities at the end of antithyroid drug treatment in relapse group was significantly elevated $(29.7{\pm}21.4%\;vs\;14.7{\pm}11.1%,\;P<0.05)$. Positive predictive value of TBII for relapse was 77.8%, which was not different from those of TRH nonresponsiveness(78.6%). The frequencies of detectable TBII in 68 patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, 10 patients with painless thyroiditis and 5 patients subacute thyroiditis were 14.7%, 20% and 0%, respectively. However in 25 patients with primary nongoitrous myxedema, 11 patients(44%) showed TBII activities in their sera. 9 out of 11 patients who had TBII activities in their sera showed high TBII activities(more than 70% binding inhibition) and their IgG concentrations showing 50% binding inhibition of $^{125}I-bTSH$ to the TSH receptor were ranges of 0.1-2.6 mg/dl. One patient who had high titer of TBII in her serum delivered a hypothyroid baby due to transplacental transfer of maternal TBII. These findings suggested that 1) TSH receptor antibodies are closely related to a pathogenetic factor of Graves' hyperthyroidism and of some patients with primary non-goitrous myxedema, 2) measurement of TSH receptor antibodies is helpful in evaluating the clinical outcome of patients with Graves' disease during antithyroid drug treatment and in predicting the neonatal transient hypothyroidism of baby delivered from primary myxedema patients. 3) there are 2 or more different types of TSH receptor antibodies in autoimmune thyroid diseases including one which stimulates thyroid by binding to the TSH receptor and another which blocks adenylate cyclase stimulation by TSH.

$PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 용혈 및 적혈구막 절편에서 $Ca^{++}$ 결합에 미치는 영향을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$는 $PGE_2$와 같이 적혈구막 삼투성 취약성을 증가시키는데 대조군에서는 NaCl농도 1/18 M 용액에서 완전히 용혈되었으나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ 가 $10^{11}M$ 이상 포함될 경우 NaCl농도 $1/16{\sim}1/17\;M$ 에서 100 % 용혈이 일어났다. 2) 동일한 적혈구 부유액을 사용할 때 NaCl농도 1/15 M 용액에서 대조군은 $44.2{\pm}4.3%$가 용혈되나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 $10^{11}M$농도로 포함되었을 때 용혈은 각기 $73.6{\pm}8.4%$ 및 $68.7{\pm}6.4%$로 대조군에 비하여 의의있게 증가하였으며 그 이상의 농도에서는 더 이상 증가를 보이지 않았다. 3) $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$에 의해 증가된 용혈은 어느 $Ca^{++}$농도에서도 대조군보다 항상 일정한 정도로 증가되어 있다. 4) 적혈구막 절편에서의 $Ca^{++}$결합은 대조군이나 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$처치군 모두 incubation용액내 $Ca^{++}$농도가 증가함에 따라 곡선적으로 증가하여 $Ca^{++}$농도 5 mM에서 포화된다. 그러나 같은 농도의 $Ca^{++}$에서 비교할 때 적혈구막의 $Ca^{++}$결합은 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ 존재시 대조군에 비하여 의의있게 증가되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 $PGE_2$ 및 $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$가 적혈구막의 삼투성 취약성을 증가시키는 기전은 $Ca^{++}$과는 독립적으로 작용함을 알 수 있다.

본 연구는 7종의 비스테로이드성 항염증제가 FMLP에 의한 사람 중성구의 이동에 미치는 영향을 약물의 농도별로 관찰하고자, Hypaque-Ficoll step gradient centrifugation방법에 의하여 중성구를 분리하고, 48-well micro chemotaxis assembly를 이용하여 chemotactic assay를 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Oxyphenbutazone, phenylbutazone, zomepirac, ibuprofen은 약물의 치료 농도하에서 중성구의 이동에 대한 강력한 억제작용을 나타내었으며, indomethacin은 중성구의 이동을 오히려 증가시키는 작용을 나타내었다. 이 약제들은 모두 100uM미만의 약물 농도에서 각각 IC50를 나타내었으며, oxyphenbutazone, phenylbutazone은 10uM에서 최대 억제효과를 나타내었고, zomepirac, ibuprofen은 각각 0.luM과 100uM에서 가장 강한 억제 작용을 나타내었다. 또한 상기 약제를 FMLP와 함께 하단 구획에 첨가하였을 때에는 세포와 함께 상단구획에 첨가하였을 때와는 상이하게 세포의 이동에 전혀 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 이러한 결과는 이 약제가 FMLP와의 분자적 상호 작용을 통하여 FMLP의 작용을 저하시키는 것보다는 세포에 직접적인 영향을 미침으로서 세포의 이동을 억제하였음을 나타내어 준다. 이상의 연구 결과에서, oxyphenbutazone등의 약제가 100uM미만의 저농도에서 FMLP에 의한 중성구의 이동을 강력하게 억제하는 작용이 있음을 보고, 이 작용은 지금까지 비스테로이드성 함염증제의 작용 기전으로 말려진 cyclooxygenage 억제 작용과는 별개의 기전으로 사료되므로, 이를 상기 약제가 세포 수준에서 나타내는 제 2의 약리 기전으로 제시한다.denosine의 효과를 길항함을 볼 수 있었으나 $K{^+}$-통로 차단제인 glibenclamide는 adenosine의 효과에 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 8-Bromo-cAMP (100과 $300{\mu}M$) 그 자체로는 ACh 유리에 별다른 영향을 미치치 못하였으나 $300\;{\mu}M$ 8-bromo-cAMP 전처리에 의하여 $30\;{\mu}M\;adenosine$의 효과가 억제됨을 볼 수 있었다. 이상의 실험결과로 흰쥐 해마에서 $A_1-adenosine$ 수용체를 통한 adenosine의 ACh유리 감소는 G-단백에 의존적이며, 이러한 효과에 nifedipine에 예민한 $Ca^{++}$-통로와 adenylate cyclase계가 일부 관여함은 확실하나 proteinkinase C 및 glibenclamide에 예민한 $K{^+}$통로는 관여하지 않는 것으로 사료된다.(新稱), Phellinus pomaceus), 회주름구멍버섯(신칭(新稱), Antrodia crassa), 층주름구멍버섯(신칭(新稱), Antrodia serialis), 흰그물구멍버섯(신칭(新稱), Ceriporia reticulata), 겹친손등버섯(신칭(新稱), Oligoporus balsameus), 점박이손등버섯(신칭(新稱), Oligoporus guttulatus), 무른흰살버섯(신칭(新稱), Oxyporus cuneatus), 각목버섯(신칭(新稱), Rigidoporus microporus), 및 주름옷솔버섯(신칭(新稱), Trichaptum laricinum)으로서 우리말 이름과 영문 기재(記載)와 함께 우리나라의 균류목록(菌類目錄)에 새로이 추가되었다. 이였으며, White+NAA
