Biosynthsis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), the most common prostanoid with potent and diverse bio-activities, is regulated by three sequential enzymatic steps composed of phospholipase A2, cyclooxygenase (COX), and prostaglandin E synthase (PGES). Recently, three distinct PGESs have been identified; two of them are membrane-bound enzymes, mPGES-1 and mPGES-2, and the third one is a cytosolic enzyme, cPGES. (omitted)

Reactive oxygen species(ROS) are produced at a high rate continuously as a by-product of aerobic metabolism. Several lines of evidence provided that ROS appears to cause to develop aging and various diseases. High level of hyaluronic acid with decreased molecular weight has been detected in patients with inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis. Hyaluronidase is an endohexosaminidase that initiates the degradation of hyaluronic acid with high molecular weight. Prunus persica Batsch var. davidiana Maximowicz has been known as a korean folk medicine for treatment of neuritis and rheumatism. (omitted)

본 논문은 국내 유가증권시장(KOSPI 및 KOSDAQ)에 상장된 106개의 제약 바이오기업을 대상으로 사건연구방법론(Event study methodology)을 이용하여 제휴 체결이 기업의 시장가치에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 연구 결과, 국내 제약 바이오산업에서 모든 제휴가 기업의 시장가치에 유의미한 영향을 주지는 않았지만 제휴 유형에 따른 분석에서 기술력이 제휴 체결의 주요인으로 작용하는 연구개발 제휴는 기업의 시장 가치에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 연구개발 제휴 중에서는 기술 이전 제휴, 특히 개발기술 이전 제휴가 기업 가치에 더 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 이는 제휴 유형별로 차별화된 평가를 받는다는 것으로 해석되었다. 한편, 제휴 체결이 기업가치에 반영되는 시점을 확인한 결과, 내부 정부 유출로 제휴 공시 전 주가 상승 가능성이 높다는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 국내 제약 바이오산업 내 제휴와 관련하여 사전정보유출 가능성이 높다고 해석된다. 본 논문은 국내 제약 바이오 기업의 가치 창출을 위해 제휴의 방향을 모색하는 경영자들과 실무자들에게 제휴의 효과를 실증적으로 입증해 준다. 또한 제휴 체결 전 정보 유출 방지를 위해 정보 관리 및 이와 관련된 제도적 보완이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Risperidone has been reported to have neuroleptic activity. In this study, risperidone was synthesized using a new method involving a stille reaction, in which 2-methyl-3-vinyl-6,7,8,9-tet­rahydropyrido[1 ,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one was synthesized (5). The chemical synthesis process was found to be simple and produced risperidone in a high yield. In addition, can be easily scaled up for large scale synthesis.

Due to consumer reluctance to take synthetic drugs for nematode infections and the appearance of resistance to anthelminthic drugs, new drugs from natural products must be developed. Caenorhabditis elegans is one of the freely living nematodes and serves as a good model system for screening anthelminthic drugs. In this study, thirteen flavonoid derivatives were tested for anthelminthic activity and the relationships between their activities and structures were investigated. The structural information combined with the data for the larval growth inhibition of C. elegans provided meaningful structural insights in the search for new anthelminthic drugs.

Kidney disease is becoming a global public health issue. Acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have serious adverse health outcomes. However, there is no effective therapy to treat these diseases. Lactoferrin (LF), a multi-functional glycoprotein, is protective against various pathophysiological conditions in various disease models. LF shows protective effects against AKI and CKD. LF reduces markers related to inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and kidney fibrosis, and induces autophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis in the kidney. Although there are no clinical trials of LF to treat kidney disease, several clinical trials and studies on LF-based drug development are ongoing. In this review, we discussed the possible kidney protective mechanisms of LF, as well as the pharmacological and therapeutic advances. The evidence suggests that LF may become a potent pharmacological agent to treat kidney diseases.

리포좀을 제조하는 방법으로 여러가지 알려져 있다. 그 중 Bangham법이 가장 간단하며 일반적으로 많이 이용되어 왔다. 소규모 실험 수준에서는 효과적으로 리포좀을 제조할 수 있지만 유기용매 제거의 어려움과 지질막 형성에 반응기 크기 등의 문제로 대규모 생산을 할 수 없다는 문제점이 있다. 반면 톤(t) 단위로 대량생산이 가능한 Emulsion Method는 균일한 입자를 가진 리포좀으로 제조가 가능하나 포집률이 현저히 낮은 단점이 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서 높은 포집율과 안정성을 향상시킨 Heating Method으로 리포좀 최적의 공정방법을 개발하여 포집률, 입자크기, 제타전위 및 SD rat에 경구 투여하여 흡수율 실험을 수행하였다. 약 214 nm의 작고 균일한 리포좀을 형성하였고, 포집률은 Emulsion Method는 26.46%, Heating Method는 38.67%으로 Heating Method법을 제조된 리포좀이 높은 포집률을 보여주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 혈중 농도 대비 모든 군에서 1.5-2배 정도 증가한 경향을 보여주었고, 4-12 hr까지 점차 낮아지는 양상을 나타냈다. Ascorbic acid powder의 혈중 최고 농도는 약 12.017 ㎍/ml, Emulsion Method 리포좀 13.871 ㎍/ml, Heating Method 리포좀은 16.322 ㎍/ml 순으로 ascorbic acid powder보다 향상된 흡수율 결과를 보여주었다.

To discover new drugs more quickly and more efficiently, pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology firms are increasingly turning to the genomics and the structural proteomics technologies. Structural-proteomics can provide a foundation for this through the determination and analysis for protein structure on a genomics scale. Among many structures determined by CGI, we will present with the representative examples drawn from our work on novel structures or complex structures of the disease-related proteins. The alpha subunit of Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is targeted for degradation under normoxic conditions by an ubiquitin-ligase complex that recognizes a hydroxylated proline residue in HIF. Hydroxylation is catalysed by HIF prolyl 4-hydroxylases (HIFPH) which are fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) dependent oxygenases. Here, we discuss the first crystal structure of the catalytic domain of HIFPH in complexes, with the Fe(II)/2-OG at 1.8Å. These structures suggest that the Ll region (residues 236-253), which is also conserved in mammals, form a 'lid' that closes over the active site. The structural and mutagenesis analyses allow us to provide a focus for understanding cellular responses to hypoxia and a target for the therapeutic manipulation.
