The present study was aimed at investigating the regulatory mechanism in tissue-specific expression of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene. The expression of IGF-I gene was determined by a solution hybridization/RNase protection assay using total RNA prepared from rat liver or brain of various ages. The levels of IGF-I transcripts were increased in liver gradually after birth, but decreased in brain. By using an oligonucleotide (FRE) corresponding to the C/EBP binding site of the rat IGF-I exon 1, multiple forms of C/EBP${\alpha}$ and C/EBP${\beta}$ proteins, which have DNA-binding activity, were detected in the rat liver or brain. Western immunoblot and southwestern analyses show that p42$\^$C/EBP${\alpha}$/, p38$\^$C/EBP${\alpha}$/, p35$\^$C/EBP${\alpha}$/, p38$\^$C/EBP${\beta}$/, and p35$\^$C/EBP${\beta}$ form specific complexes with the IGF-I exon 1 oligonucleotide in liver nuclear extract and that p42$\^$C/EBP${\alpha}$/ and p38$\^$C/EBP${\beta}$/ form complexes in brain. These data suggest that the formation of FRE-C/EBP isoform complexes may play important roles in the tissue-specific regulation of IGF-I gene expression.

Runaway replication plasmid pSY35AT was used for the production of $cI_{857}$ repressor protein. E, coli MC1065 having plasmid pSY35AT was shifted from $30^{\circ}C$ to $37^{\circ}C$ $cI_{857}$ repressor protein produced was purified by a modification of the purification method of wild type cI repressor. The concentration of purified $cI_{857}$ repressor protein was 0.11 mg/ml. The binding assay of $cI_{857}$ repressor and right promoter - right operater ($P_RO_R$) labeled with $^3H-CTP$ was done. Relative activity of purified cIx5, repressor was higher about 23 times than that of cell free extract. A higher value of the temperature in the binding assay led to a lower value of the binding activity.

To understand the comprehensive mechanisms of biological function for insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in vertebrates, we have investigated the cDNA sequence of this gene in the korean rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli). The mature form of korean rockfish IGF-I was found to be comprised of 67 amino acid residues, showing about a 7 kDa molecular weight. In this study, we used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to obtain a korean rockfish IGF-I (KR IGF-I) cDNA fragment, and methods of rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) to obtain a full length of the KR IGF-I sequence. The KR IGF-I encoded for a predicted amino acid sequence showed identities of 93.6 %, 90.7 %, and 85.4 % in comparison with flounder, chinook salmon, and human IGF-I, respectively. To obtain recombinant biologically active polypeptides, korean rockfish B-C-A-D domains were amplified using the PCR, then the isolated cDNA was expressed in the E. coli BL21(DE3). The recombinant KR IGF-I protein biological function was measured by stimulation of [$^3H$] thymidine incorporation, suggesting the cDNA codes for the korean rockfish proIGF-I.

It is well known that both insulin-like growth factor-I and suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS-3) are known to modulate various aspects of physiology in skeletal muscle cells. Furthermore, although SOCS-3 expression is related to insulin resistance in non-skeletal muscle cells and is known to interact with insulin-like growth factor-I receptor, the effect of IGF-I on SOCS-3 gene expression in skeletal muscle cells is presently unknown. C2C12 myotubes were treated with different concentrations (0-200 ng/ml) of IGF-I or for various periods of time (3-72 hr). Immunofluorescent staining image revealed that IGF-I induced SOCS-3 protein expression in a dose-dependent manner. Western blot data also showed that SOCS-3 proteins were induced by IGF-I (200 ng/ml) in C2C12 myotubes in a time-dependent manner. The level of SOCS-3 mRNA was also significantly increased after 3hr of IGF-I (10-100 ng/ml) treatment. However, the levels of SOCS-3 mRNA were significantly decreased after 24 and 48 hr of IGF-I (10-100 ng/ml) treatment compared to the control. In conclusion, SOCS-3 protein is induced by IGF-I treatment in C2C12 skeletal muscle cells and this induction is regulated pretranslationally. The modulating effect of IGF-I on SOCS-3 expression may be an important regulator of gene expression in skeletal muscle cells.

The synthesis of $CF_3$I and $C_2F_5I from $CF_3Br$ was studied for the reuse of $CF_3Br$ which is abolished to save the ozone layer of the earth. Reaction experiments were carried out in experimental scale synthesis equipment with catalysts, such as CuI, Kl, $K_2$$CO_3$, KF metal salt/active carbon and alumina support at $400~600^{\circ}C$. Main products of reaction were $CF_3i$ and $C_2F_5I$ with small amounts of $C_2F_5I$, $CF_4$, $CF_2Br_2$ by-products. 7.5wt% KI and $K_2CO_3$over activated carbon catalysts show the highest yield of $CF_3$I and 7.5wt% CuI over alumina catalysts show the highest yield of $C_2F_5i$. And optimal reaction temperature was about $500^{\circ}C$.

This paper describes the influence of the electrode materials, moisture content, electrolyte density, temperature, surface state, ion absorbent on the C.T.I of phenolic resin by the I.E,C, 112 method. C.T.I are increased for electrode materials with low hydrogen overvoltage and high soluble point. Increusing moisture content of samples increased by logarithmical on the droplet number to tracking breakdown. Increasing electrolyte temperature region above 70-80(.deg.C) decreased hydrogen over-voltage, following the density changes are decreased by C.T.I=1/aD$^{2}$-bD+C.

Published data on any association between the CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI (c1/c2) polymorphism and liver cancer risk among east Asians are inconclusive. The aim of this Human Genome Epidemiology (HuGE) review and meta-analysis was to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. A literature search of Pubmed, Embase, Web of science and CBM databases from inception through July 2012 was conducted. Twelve case-control studies were included with a total of 1,552 liver cancer cases and 1,763 healthy controls. Crude odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of association under five genetic models. When all the eligible studies were pooled into the meta-analysis, the results showed that the c2 allele and the c2 carrier (c2/c2 + c2/c1) of RsaI/PstI polymorphism were associated with decreased risk of liver cancer among east Asians (c2 vs. c1: OR = 0.75, 95%CI: 0.59-0.95, P = 0.016; c2/c2 + c2/c1 vs. c1/c1: OR = 0.76, 95%CI: 0.58-1.00, P = 0.050). In the stratified analysis by country, significant associations were observed between RsaI/PstI polymorphism and decreased risk of liver cancer among the Chinese population (c2 vs. c1: OR = 0.70, 95%CI: 0.54-0.91, P = 0.007; c2/c2 + c2/c1 vs. c1/c1: OR = 0.72, 95%CI: 0.54-0.95, P = 0.020), but not among Japanese and Korean populations. Results from the current meta-analysis indicates that the c2 allele of CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI (c1/c2) polymorphism may be a protective factor for HCC among east Asians, especially among China populations.

In the vegetative hyphae of Aspergillus nidulans, a zymogenic form of the class I chitin synthase activity was successfully measured by the assay condition for Saccharomyces cerevisiae class I chitin synthase, Chsl. The class I chitin synthase activity of the A. nidulans chsC wild type strain was increased about six-fold by trypsin-pretreatment, but that of the chsC disruption strain revealed no increase. Interestingly enough, level of the class I chitin synthase activity of the chsC disruption strain was almost the same as that of the chsC wild type without trypsin-pretreatment. These results indicated that the A. nidulans ChsC activity could be measured by account-ing the class I chitin synthase activity without the trypsin-pretreatment as an internal control. Consistence to the expression pattern of the chsC revealed by northern blot analysis, the activity of ChsC was increased upon reaching the culture time for acquiring developmental competence. Our results shown here also supported the previous report suggesting the possible involvement of ChsC in vegetative hyphal growth of A. nidulans.

Threat hunting is defined as a process of proactively and iteratively searching through networks to detect and isolate advanced threats that evade existing security solutions. The main concept of threat hunting is to find out weak points and remedy them before actual cyber threat has occurred. And HMM(Hunting Maturity Matrix) is suggested to evolve hunting processes with five levels, therefore, CSOC(Cyber Security Operations Center) can refer HMM how to make them safer from complicated and organized cyber attacks. We are developing a system for cyber situation awareness system with pro-active threat hunting process called unMazeTM. With this unMaze, it can be upgraded CSOC's HMM level from initial level to basic level. CSOC with unMaze do threat hunting process not only detecting existing cyber equipment post-actively, but also proactively detecting cyber threat by fusing and analyzing cyber asset data and threat intelligence.
