We previously identified the rice gene, OsSAP, as an encoder of a highly conserved putative senescence-associated protein that was shown to have anti-apoptotic activity. To confirm the role of OsSAP in inducing abiotic stress tolerance in rice, we introduced OsSAP and AtBI-1, a plant homologue of Bax inhibitor-1, under the control of the CaMV 35S promoter into the rice genome through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The OsSAP transformants showed a similar chlorophyll index after salinity treatments with AtBI-1. Furthermore, we compared the effects of salinity stress on leaves and roots by examining the hormone levels of abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonic acid (JA), gibberellic acid (GA3), and zeatin in transformants compared to the control. With the exception of phytohormones, stress-induced changes in hormone levels putatively related to stress tolerance have not been investigated previously. Hormonal level analysis confirmed the lower rate of stress in the transformants compared to the control. The levels of ABA and JA in OsSAP and AtBI-1 transformants were similar, where stress rates increased after one week and decreased after a two week period of drought; there was a slightly higher accumulation compared to the control. However, a similar trend was not observed for the level of zeatin, as the decrease in the level of zeatin accumulation differed in both OsSAP and AtBI-1 transformants for all genotypes during the early period of salinity stress. The GA3 level was detected under normal conditions, but not under salinity stress.

In order to, study the anti-stress effect of $Tae{\breve{u}}min$ $Ch{\breve{o}}ngsimy{\breve{o}}njat^{\prime}ang$, several measures of stress, including catecholmine changes, body weight changes, and gastric ulcers were used.the following result were observed: 1. Plasma epinephrine contents of stress by food in rats, in the controlled group were $219.3{\pm}18.4pg/ml$, but in the experimental group the value was decreased to $169.0{\pm}16.6pg/ml$. 2. Plasma norepinephrine content of stress by food in rats in the controlled group was $303.0{\pm}18.9pg/ml$ but in the experimental group the value was decreased to $243.6{\pm}17.6pg/ml$. 3. Plasma dopamine contents of stress by food in rats in the controlled group was $16.9{\pm}1.9pg/ml$ but in the experimental group the value was derceased to $12.8{\pm}1.5pg/ml$, but it was nonsignificant. 4. Effects of body weight of stress by food in the Shay rats in controlled group was $175.9{\pm}3.0g$, but in the experimental grou the value was increased to $187.7{\pm}4.8g$. 5. Gastric ulcers of stress by food in Shay Rats, in the experimental group, the glade was decreased more than in the control group. 6. It is considered that the anti-stress effect of Taeumin Chongsimyonjat' depends on its concentration rate. Based on the results above, it may be concluded that Taeumin chongsimyonjat' aug is effective to prevent the harmful effects of stress.

Objectives: Chijasitang (CJST) has been prescribed for patients with anxiety disorder, and is believed to treat insomnia. The present study was carried out to investigate whether Fructus Gardeniae, Fermented Semen Sojae Preparatum and CJST have beneficial effects on treating anti-stress. Methods: The mice were divided into the following groups: normal, control, positive control, and experimental. Then, the experimental groups were further divided into the Fructus Gardeniae group (FG), the Fermented Semen Sojae Preparatum group (FS), the Chijasitang water extract group (CJSTW), and the Chijasitang 30% ethanol extract group (CJSTE). In the positive control group, a single dose of imipramine ($500{\mu}g/g$) was applied to the mice. In the experimental groups, each single dose of FG, FS, CJSTW and CJSTE ($50{\mu}g/g$) was applied to the mice. After one hour, the mice in all groups except the normal group were exposed to immobilization stress. Their body weights, phagocytosis, nitric oxide in macrophage, corticosterone, and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) were observed. Results: Fructus Gardeniae, Fermented Semen Sojae Preparatum and Chijasitang prevented weight loss and suppressed the decrease of phagocytosis in the mice after their exposure to immobilization-stress. Although they did not influence the amount of NO, they suppressed the increment of ACTH and corticosterone in the immobilization-stressed mice. Conclusions: According to the results of this study, they suggest that Fructus Gardeniae, Fermented Semen Sojae Preparatum and Chi-Ja-Si-Tang all have some anti-stress effects.

The objective of this study is screening the anti-oxidative effects of several plant MeOH extracts against oxidative stress in Neuroblastoma cell. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many neurotoxicity, neurodegenerative disorders and cell death. This oxidative stress is generated by ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) such as nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, peroxyl, superoxide ($O_2^-$), hydroxyl, alkoxyl. So, in the present study, we induced oxidative stress by treatment of sodium nitroprusside (2.5 mM) in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell which was treated samples before 24hr, and cell viability was measured by MTT reduction assay. Of those tested, the extracts of Paeonia japonica (roots), Eucommia ulmoides (炒)(barks), Paeonia japonica (曝乾)(roots), Phyllostachys bambusoides (stems), Polygala tenuifolia (去心, 炒)(roots), Paeonia japonica (roots), Polygala tenuifolia (roots), Machilus thunbergii (barks), Mallotus japonicus (leaves), Poria cocos (whole), Sophora flavescens (roots), Angelica tenuissima (roots), Angelica gigas (當歸尾)(roots) showed anti-oxidative effects[$EC_{50}$<15.20 ${\mu}g$/ml(Carnosine:Positive control)]in dose dependent manner.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to assess anti-depressive effects of Bee Venom(BV) on an Animal Model of Depression induced immobility stress. Methods : There was 2 pre-experiments MTT(3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay and Western blot test and 3 main experiments ; forced swimming test, tail suspension test and Y-maze task. Male rats were used for main experiment. The subject was divided into 4 groups(1. control group injected only saline, without immobility stress 2. Negative group injected saline after 2 hours immobility stress 3. Positive group injected Amitriptyline after 2 hours immobility stress 4. BV group injected Bee Venom after 2 hours immobility stress). Each group consisted of 6 rats. Forced swimming test, tail suspension test, Y-maze task were used to evaluate anti-depressive effect of Bee Venom. Results : In MTT assay, as the density of BV increased, the existence rate of primary neuronal cell increased. In Western blot test, the density of CREB and AKT was increasing as time went by. In forced swimming test, BV group showed immobility decreased more than Normal group and Positive group. In tail suspension test, Normal group and Positive group showed immobility decreased more than BV group. In Y-maze task, BV group showed immobility decreased more than Normal group, but Positive group showed immobility decreased more than BV group. Conclusions : These results suggest that Bee Venom may have anti-depressive effect on depression.

유기도막의 방식성능은 도막의 수지성분과 안료의 화학적 특성에 의존한다 전자는 부식인자의 침투를 차단 및 지연시키는 역할을 하며, 후자는 침투된 부식인자들에 의해 일어나는 부식반응을 억제하는 기능을 갖고 있다. 또한 도막 자체의 영향 외에, 외부 환경에 의해서 다르게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 교류 임피던스 법을 이용하여 유속과 그에 따른 유동 전단응력에 의한 도막의 열화거동을 조사하였다. 실험기 사용된 도막의 두께는 $70{\mu}m$에서 $140{\mu}m$까지 변화시켰다. 두꺼운 도막($140{\mu}m$) 에서는 유속이 증가함에 따라 물 흡수량의 감소와 높은 임피던스 특성을 나타내었다. 그러나 얇은 도막($90{\mu}m$) 에서는 유속이 증가함에 따라 도막의 파괴가 진행되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 도막에 가해지는 전단응력이 증가할수록, 즉 선박의 운항속도가 증대될수록 도막의 열화에 의하여 방식성능이 떨어짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

A multi-layered orthotropic material with a center crack is subjected to an anti-plane shear loading. The problem is formulated as a mixed boundary value problem by using the Fourier integral transform method. This gives a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The integral equation is solved numerically and anti-plane shear stress intensity factors are analyzed in terms of the material orthotropy for each layer, number of layers, crack length to layer thickness and the order of the loading polynomial. Also, the case of monolithic and hybrid composites are investigated in terms of the local fiber volume fraction and the global fiber volume fraction.
