Disulfiram (DSF) is an aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor. DSF has potent anti-cancer activity for solid and hematological malignancies. Although the effects on cancer cells have been proven, there have been few studies on DSF toxicity in bone marrow cells (BMs). DSF reduces the metabolic activity and the mitochondrial membrane potential of BMs. In subset analyses, we confirmed that DSF does not affect the proportion of BMs. In addition, DSF significantly impaired the metabolic activity and differentiation of BMs treated with granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor, an essential growth and differentiation factor for BMs. To measure DSF toxicity in BMs in vivo, mice were injected with 50 mg/kg, a dose used for anti-cancer effects. DSF did not significantly induce BM toxicity in mice and may be tolerated by antioxidant defense mechanisms. This is the first study on the effects of DSF on BMs in vitro and in vivo. DSF has been widely studied as an anti-cancer drug candidate, and many anti-cancer drugs lead to myelosuppression. In this regard, this study can provide useful information to basic science and clinical researchers.

We describe tests for detecting and locating quantitative traits loci (QTL) for traits in Hanwoo. Lod scores and a permutation test have been described. From results of a permutation test to detect QTL, we select major DNA markers of BMS1167 microsatellite locus in Hanwoo chromosome 17 for further analysis. K-means clustering analysis applied to four traits and eight DNA markers in BMS1167 resulted in three cluster groups. We conclude that the major DNA markers of BMS1167 microsatellite locus in Hanwoo chromosome 17 are markers 100bp, 108bp and 110bp.

K-means clustering analysis applied to four traits and eight DNA markers in BMS941 resulted in three cluster groups. We conclude that the major DNA markers of BMS941 microsatellite locus in Hanwoo chromosome 17 are markers 80bp, 85bp 90bp and 105bp.

We evaluated the antiplatelet effects of two classes of ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers $(K_{ATP}\;openers)$ on washed human platelets, and the study's emphasis was on the role of mitochondrial $K_{ATP}$ in platelet aggregation. Collagen-induced platelet aggregation was inhibited in a dose dependent manner by lemakalim and SKP-450, which are potent cardio-nonselective $K_{ATP}$ openers, and also by cardioselective BMS-180448 and BMS-191095 $(IC_{50}\;:\;1,130,\;>\;1,500,\;305.3\;and\;63.9\;{\mu}M,\;respectively)$, but a significantly greater potency was noted for the cardioselective $K_{ATP}$ openers. The latter two $K_{ATP}$ openers also inhibited platelet aggregation induced by thrombin, another important blood-borne platelet activator, with similar rank order of potency $(IC_{50}\;:\;498.0\;and\;104.8{\mu}M\; for\;BMS-180448\;and\;BMS-191095,\;respectively)$. The inhibitory effects of BMS-191095 on collagen-induced platelet aggregation were significantly blocked by a 30-min pretreatment of platelets with glyburide $(1{\mu}M)$ or sodium 5-hydroxyde­canoate$(5-HD,\;100{\mu}M)$, a nonselective and selective mitochondrial $K_{ATP}$ antagonist, respectively, at similar magnitudes; this indicates the role of mitochondrial $K_{ATP}$ in the antiplatelet activity of BMS-191095. However, glyburide and 5-HD had no effect when they were added to the platelet cuvette immediately prior to the addition of BMS-191095. These findings indicate that cardioselective mitochondrial $K_{ATP}$ openers like BMS-191095 are able to exert cardioprotective effects in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury via dual mechanisms directed at the inhibition of platelet aggregation and the protection of cardiomyocytes, and both these mechanisms are mediated by mitochondrial$K_{ATP}$.

Purpose: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a chronic pain condition involving the oral and perioral regions, often characterized by a burning sensation and pain in elderly patients. In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of pharmacological agents for the treatment of BMS patients through a retrospective chart review. Methods: We enrolled 61 BMS subjects (57 females, 4 males; $66.4{\pm}10.9$ years of age) from among consecutive patients treated pharmacologically from January 2014 to June 2015 at Chonnam National University Dental Hospital. Patients with secondary BMS associated with local factors were excluded. The treatment period, number of pharmacological agents tried, and effectiveness of the drugs administered to each subject were analyzed. Results: The mean treatment period for the management of BMS was 2.5 months. More than three agents were tried to control BMS symptoms in 17 subjects (27.9%); two agents were used in 10 subjects (16.4%), and a single agent in 24 subjects (39.3%). Clonazepam was prescribed most frequently and was effective at relieving symptoms in 30 of 39 subjects (76.9%). Paroxetine was moderately effective, relieving symptoms in 7 of 17 subjects (41.2%). Some of the subjects benefited from tricyclic antidepressants, gabapentin, and lipoic acid. A topical local anesthetic used to supplement other systemic agents had ameliorating effects in four of six subjects. Conclusions: Within the study limitations, clonazepam was the most effective drug and antidepressants were efficacious in some subjects for relieving the symptoms of BMS. These pharmacological agents could be considered as first-line drugs for the management of BMS.

본 연구는 육계분의 혐기 또는 퇴적 발효시 발효에 따른 물리화학적 성분 변화를 추적하여 맥아근의 첨가 효과 및 적정 첨가 수준을 구명하고, 아울러 효과적인 발효 방법을 제시하고자 실시되었다. 육계분의 혐기 또는 퇴적 발효 시 맥아근을 최고 10%까지 첨가함에 따라 발효물의 영양적 성상(건물, 유기물, 조단백질, 조지방, ADF-CP 등)은 바람직하게 향상되었다. 특히 조단백질 성분은 양적, 질적으로 향상되었다. 그러나 혐기발효 후 여전히 매우 높은 pH는 혐기발효가 효과적으로 일어나지 못하였으며, 발효 촉진 방안의 고려가 필수적임을 시사하였다. 육계분의 퇴적 발효 시 5∼10%의 맥아근 첨가는 발효물의 영양적 성상을 향상시켰고, 이는 아마도 발효미생물의 분해 활동을 촉진시킴으로서 퇴적발효 온도를 상승시키는 효과를 초래하였다. 이는 맥아근 첨가는 육계분의 퇴적발효를 더욱 촉진시키는 것으로 사료되었다. 또한 육계분에 맥아근을 첨가하여 위생적인 발효사료를 제조하고자 할 때 퇴적발효법은 혐기발효법 보다도 더 효과적인 것으로 권장되었다.

The Battlefield Management System(BMS) of Ground Fighting Vehicles has employed its own message format but there have been requirements of using the standard message format, KVMF. To meet these requirements, we analyzed BMS and KVMF and incorporated KVMF into BMS. In this paper, we would like to introduce our implementation of KVMF in BMS.

An outline of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for bridge condition rating and the results of a pilot study are presented in this paper. Most BMS implementation systems involve an extensive range of data collection to operate accurately. It takes many years to effectively implement a BMS using existing methodologies. This is due to unmatched data requirements. Such problems can be overcome by adopting the ANN model presented in this paper. The objective of the proposed model is to predict bridge condition ratings using historical bridge inspection data for effective BMS operation.
