실험 또는 계측에 의해 관측된 관측치들은 종종 어떤 기준치 이하의 작은 값들이 기록되는데, 이들 기준치 이하의 값들이 크기는 미소할지라도 평균이나 분산 추정시 왜곡된 결과를 줄 수 있다. 그러나 우리 나라에서는 관측오차로 간주하여 N.D.(Not Detected)로 처리하는 것을 관례로 하고 있어 미소치들이 기록되지 않고 있다. EK라서 본 연구에서는 부여 취수장의 암모니아성 질소(NH$_3$-N)자료가 크기에 따라 분표형이 다름을 조사하고 그 분포를 구별할 수 있는 기준치와 기준치 이하의 자료들에 대한 평균과 분산 추정시 가장 적절한 기법을 찾고자 하였다. 즉, 기준치 이하의 값들과 이상의 값들을 구분하여 평균과 분산을 위한 적절한 기법을 선정하여 추정하였다. 분석 결과 부여취사장의 자료는 편기 수정된 최우도(Bias Corrected ML)법이 가장 적합한 것으로 결정되었으며, 시행착오법에 의하여 기준치를 설정하였다.

In order to develop a suitable secondary renal disease model and diagnostic markers of renal disease in the rat, the change of PIIIP (aminoterminal procollagen III peptide) in serum and hydroxyproline levels in the renal tissue that reflect the synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) during development of experimental renal diseases were observed. Two types of experimental primary diseases, diabetes mellitus administrated by streptozotocin (STZ, 75 mg/kg, i.p.) and liver cirrhosis produced by bile duct ligation/scission (BDL/s) operation, were induced. The hydroxyproline level increased according to the high PIIIP and NCl(carboxyterminal procollagen IV peptide) in Western blot analysis as early as 1 week in the STZ treated-rat kidney. Increased renal ECM was observed at 15 weeks in STZ and BDL/s model under the microscopic examination. High PAS positive reaction was found in capillary basement membrane in STZ treated-rats and mesangium in BDL/s operated rats at this time, showing the histological characteristics of diabetic nephropathy and cirrhotic glomerulonephritis in human, respectively. Such secondary renal failure were supported by additional tests including urinalysis and renal function test. The serum PIIIP detected by ELISA was a useful parameter to estimate synthesis rate of renal ECM during development of renal disease without extrarenal fibrosis i.e. liver cirrhosis in rats. This study is proposed that STZ treatment or BDL/s operation may be a suitable experimental animal model for the induction and development of chronic secondary renal diseases. Morover, it was found that hydroxyproline level in renal tissues was a good parameter of the change of renal ECM at the early stage of the diseases without apparent histological changes. Especially, serum PIIIP could be a choice as a diagnostic or prognostic marker during the development of renal diseases in rats.

Objectives : This study aims to investigate the correlation between the characteristics of personality on MMPI scale, and the siblings relation, number of current family living with, gender and age of the Oriental Medical University students. Methods : For this study, we carried out the MMPI profiling and gathered information regarding the sibling relation of the subjects. We studied the correlation between the two measures, and the correlation between MMPI scales and the subjects' gender and age. Results : 1. The group without siblings had higher STY figures then the groups with siblings. 2. There was no significant differences in MMPI profiles among the only child group, first-born group, second-born group, and third-born group. 3. The married group showed higher Pd, Pt, Sc, BDL figures than the unmarried group. 4. As the number of family members currently living with increased, the BDL and STY figures decreased. 5. The male group had higher Hs, Hy, Pa, Ma, NAR, BDL, ANT, CPS, PAR, and SZD figures, while the female group had higher D, Pd, Mf, Pt, HST, PAG, and DEP figures. 6. As the subjects' age increased, the figure of Hs, D, Pt, Sc, Si, AVD, and SZD increased, while the HST figure decreased. Conclusions : By the above results, we can assume that the sibling relations and the order one is born in the family does not affect one's personality much in grown-ups; whereas the gender and age affect the personality.

Lactobacillus (LAB) have been reported to exert both harmful and beneficial effects on human and animal health. Recently, it has been reported that dysbiosis and bacterial translocation contribute to liver fibrosis. However, the role of Gram-positive LAB in the situation of chronic liver diseases has not been yet elucidated. Liver injury was induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) in LAB or control-administered mice. Liver fibrosis was enhanced in LAB-administered mice compared with control-treated mice as demonstrated by quantification of Sirius-red positive area, hydroxyproline contents and fibrosis-related genes ($Col1{\alpha}1$, Acta2, Timp1, Tgfb1). Moreover, LAB-administered mice were more susceptible to BDL-induced liver injury as shown by increased ALT and AST level of LAB group compared with control group at 5 days post BDL. Consistent with serum level, inflammatory cytokines ($TNF-{\alpha}$, IL-6 and $IL-1{\beta}$) were also significantly increased in LAB-treated mice. Of note, LAB-treated liver showed increased lipoteichoic acid (LTA) expression compared with control-treated liver, indicating that LAB-derived LTA may translocate from intestine to liver via portal vein. Indeed, responsible receptor or inflammatory factor (PAFR and iNOS) for LTA were upregulated in LAB-administered group. The present findings demonstrate that administration of LAB increases LTA translocation to liver and induces profibrogenic inflammatory milieu, leading to aggravation of liver fibrosis. The current study provides new cautious information of LAB for liver fibrosis patients to prevent the detrimental effect of LAB supplements.

This study was carried out to compare the histopathological differences of liver lesions in carbon tetrachloride ($CCI_4$), dimethylnitrosamine (DMN), thioacetamide (TAA) and bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced rats. $CCl_4$, DMN and TAA were administered intraperitoneally and conducted bile duct ligation for 4 weeks to induce hepatic fibrosis. Indices of liver cell injury (steatosis, hydropic degeneration, bile duct hyperplasia, hemorrhage & hemosiderin deposition), the extent of liver fibrosis (fibrotic area) and the rate of regeneration (number of PCNA-positive cells) were investigated in each group. Liver tissues were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE), sirius red, prussian blue and immunostained with ${\alpha}$-smooth muscle actin (${\alpha}$-SMA), transforming growth factor-${\beta}1$ (TGF-${\beta}1$), proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), and quantified using a computerized image analysis system. Liver cell steatosis was significantly increased in $CCl_4$ and TAA groups, and hydropic degeneration and bile duct hyperplasia were significantly increased in TAA and BDL groups when compared with that in normal control, respectively. Fibrosis area was significantly increased in all four groups, especially in $CCl_4$ group. Correlation between ${\alpha}$-SMA and TGF-${\beta}1$ expressions in four groups was good. Hemorrhage area in liver parenchyma was significantly increased in DMN group only when compared with that in normal control, while hemosiderin deposition area was significantly increased in TAA and BDL groups as well as DMN group. The Number of PCNA-positive cells was significantly increased in all four groups, especially in TAA group. These results indicate that the duration and methods of hepatotoxic drug treatment are very important factors to make plans for animal experimentation on the induction of hepatic fibrogenesis in rats.

축산용 항생제는 투여된 양의 일부만이 체내에서 사용되며 나머지는 분뇨로 배출되며 이를 활용한 퇴비를 농경지에 살포함으로써 농업환경에 유입되어 2차 오염 등을 초래하고 있다. 따라서, 농업환경 중 항생제 관리기준 설정 등 사후 관리 기술이 필요하다. 본 연구는 국내 사용빈도가 높은 것으로 알려진 tetracycline 및 sulfonamide 계열 등의 항생제를 대상으로 매체별 잔류량을 비교하고 퇴비 시용 전·후 농경지 토양 중 잔류항생제의 위해성을 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. Buffer 및 SPE를 사용한 전처리 방법은 ppb 수준에서 70% 이상의 회수율을 나타냈으며, 검출한계(LOD)의 범위는 퇴비와 토양에서 각각 0.13-0.46 ㎍/kg과 0.05-0.25 ㎍/kg이었다. 잔류 항생제 분석결과 퇴비 중 tetracycline 계열 항생제의 잔류 농도는 5.38-196.0 ㎍/kg, sulfonamide 계열은 below the detection of limit (BDL)-259.0 ㎍/kg 수준으로 검출되었다. 농경지 토양의 경우 각각 0.30-53.3 ㎍/kg, BDL-4.16 ㎍/kg의 잔류 수준을 나타냈으며 토양분배계수(Kd) 값이 높은 tetracycline 계열 항생제의 잔류 농도가 sulfonamide 계열보다 높았다. 퇴비 시용 전후의 농경지 토양의 항생제에 대한 인체위해도는 항생제 종류에 따른 차이가 있었으나, 전체 HQ가 1 이하에서 안전하다는 기준에 의하면 조사된 항생제 5종 모두 인체 위해성이 매우 낮았으며 시용 전·후의 영향이 전체 위해도에 미치는 비율을 고려하면, 퇴비시용이 토양의 항생제에 대한 인체위해성에 미치는 영향은 미비한 것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구는 흰쥐의 담관 세포와 간세포에서 CFTR과 $AE1{\cdot}AE2{\cdot}AE3$ 유전자들의 발현 유무를 조사하고 흰쥐에서 담관 결찰 후 AE2 유전자의 발현의 변화를 관찰하고자 하였다. 200-250 g의 Sprague Dawley 계 흰쥐 24마리의 총담관을 결찰한 후 4 주 동안 1 주일에 6마리씩 희생하여 간세포와 담관 세포를 분리하였다. 6마리는 대조군으로 사용하여 간세포와 담관 세포에서 CFTR 유전자와 $AE1{\cdot}AE2$와 AE3 유전자 발현을 조사하고 담관 결찰 후 1 2 3 4주 간격으로 AE2 유전자 발현을 조사하였다. $AE1{\cdot}AE2$ 와 AE3는 간세포와 담관 세포에서 발현되었고 CFTR은 담관 세포에서만 발현되었다. 담관 결찰 담관세포군에서 AE2 유전자의 발현은 대조군인 정상 담관세포군에 비해서 낮았다. 결찰 담관세포군에서 AE2 유전자의 발현은 결찰 기간에 따라 차이가 없었다. 담관 결찰 간세포군에서 AE2 유전자의 발현은 대조군인 정상 간세포군에 비해서 경계적 유의성을 보이며 증가하는 경향이 있었다. 결찰 간세포군에서 AE2 유전자의 발현은 결찰 기간에 따라 차이는 없었다. 따라서 $CFTR{\cdot}AE1{\cdot}AE2$ 그리고AE3 는 간세포와 담관 세포에서 중탄산염이온과 수액을 매개하는 주된 이온 전달체라는 사실을 고려할 때 담도 담즙정체 간질환에서CFTR과 AE2 발현의 변화는 병리학적 기전에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있으리라고 생각된다.
