Hexamethylenediamine dihydroiodide is monoclinic, with cell dimensions $a=4.85{\AA}$, $b=12.77{\AA}$, $c=9.73{\AA}$, ${\beta}=91.5^{\circ}$ The space group is $P2_1/c$, with two molecules per unit cell. It has a center of symetry in the molecule. All atomic positions are determined by means of a two-dimensional patterson synthesis and fourier synthesis. The C-N bond distance is $1.48{\AA}$ and the C-C bond distances are lying between $1.55{\AA}$, and $1.59{\AA}$. The iodine atom is bonded by hydrogen bridges of $3.59{\AA}{\pm}0.1{\AA}$ to nitrogen atoms and surrounded by three nitrogen atoms. The hexamethylenediamine chain is zigzag in the hexamethylenediamine dihydrochloride molecules though, it is not zigzag in the hexamethylenediamine dihydroiodide.

Fucoidan, that is high-molecular-weight sulfated polysaccharides extracted from brown seaweeds has been shown to elicit various biological activities. Here, we investigated the effects of fucoidan on cell proliferation and nitric oxide (NO) production in neuronal blastoma cell (SH-SY5Y). In the present study, we demonstrated that fucoidan treatment resulted in increase of cell proliferation and NO production. When cells were treated with amyloid-${\beta}$ (A${\beta}$) in the absence or presence of fucoidan, fucoidan recovered the cell viability decreased by A${\beta}$ peptides. To further determine whether nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is involved in proliferative effect of fucoidan, cells were treated with NOS inhibitors in the absence or presence of fucoidan. Selective constitutive nitric oxide synthase (cNOS) inhibitor, diphenylene iodonium chloride (DPI), caused a decrease of cell viability, whereas cell viability was increased by specific inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor, S-methylisothiourea (SMT), in the fucoidan-untreated cells. Treatment with fucoidan inhibited the cell viability decreased in DPI-exposed cells. In contrast, fucoidan had no effect on cell growth in SMT-treated cells, indicating that cNOS may not play a role in the proliferation of fucoidan-treated cells. The present data suggest that fucoidan has proliferative and neuroprotective effects and these effects may be associated with iNOS.

To investigate epithelial cell proliferation reactivity in the odontogenic cysts, the expression of c-erbB-2 oncoprotein by epithelial lining was studied in odontogenic keratocyst(OKC, n=10), dentigerous cyst(DC, n=12), radicular cyst(RC, n=12) and normal dental follicle(n=7). The c-erbB-2 immunoreactivity was studied using a streptavidine- biotin- peroxidase method with polyclonal rabbit antihuman antibody to c-erbB-2 oncoprotein which is known to react with formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded sections and the intensity of staining was determined by manually. In all of 10(100%) OKCs, showed positive expression for c-erbB-2 oncoprotein compared with 10/12(83.3%) in DCs, 11/12(91.7%) in RCs and 5/7(71.4%) in normal dental follicles. The expression within OKC was higher than that of DC, RC and dental follicle but statistically not significant(p>0.05) and but may reflects underlying genetic defect. These results demonstrate differences in c-erbB-2 expression between the epithelial linings of the three major odontogenic cyst types, indicating differences in proliferation activity and differentiation processes within these lesions. And, in particular, these results are able to explain the peculiar aggressive growth pattern of OKC.

Spindle position checkpoint monitors the orientation of mitotic spindle for proper segregation of replicated chromosomes into mother cell and the daughter, and prohibits mitotic exit when mitotic spindle is misaligned. BUB2 forms one of the key upstream element of spindle position checkpoint in budding yeast, but its functional homologues have not been identified in higher eukaryotes. Here, we analyzed the functions of two putative BUB2 homologues of C. elegans in the spindle orientation checkpoint. From the C. elegans genome database, we found that two open reading frames (ORFs), F35H12_2 and C33F10_2, showed high sequence homology with BUB2. We obtained the expressed sequence tag (EST) clones for F35H12_2 (yk221d4) and C33F10_2 (yk14e10) and verified the full cDNA for each ORF by sequencing and 5' RACE with SL1 primer. The functional complementation assays of yk221d4 and yk14e10 in ${\Delta}bub2$ of S. cerevisiae revealed that these putative BUB2 homologues of C. elegans could not replace the function of BUB2 in spindle position checkpoint and mitotic exit. Our attempt to document the component of spindle position checkpoint in metazoans using sequence homology was not successful. This suggests that structural information about its components might be required to identify functional homologues of the spindle position checkpoint in higher eukaryotes.

HnRNPK is a multifunctional protein that participates in chromatin remodeling, transcription, RNA splicing, mRNA stability and translation. Here, we uncovered the function of hnRNPK in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. hnRNPK was mutated in the C2C12 myoblast cell line using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. A decreased proliferation rate was observed in hnRNPK-mutated cells, suggesting an impaired proliferation phenotype. Furthermore, increased G2/M phase, decreased S phase and increased sub-G1 phase cells were detected in the hnRNPK-mutated cell lines. The expression analysis of key cell cycle regulators indicated mRNA of Cyclin A2 was significantly increased in the mutant myoblasts compared to the control cells, while Cyclin B1, Cdc25b and Cdc25c were decreased sharply. In addition to the myoblast proliferation defect, the mutant cells exhibited defect in myotube formation. The myotube formation marker, myosin heavy chain (MHC), was decreased sharply in hnRNPK-mutated cells compared to control myoblasts during differentiation. The deficiency in hnRNPK also resulted in the repression of Myog expression, a key myogenic regulator during differentiation. Together, our data demonstrate that hnRNPK is required for myoblast proliferation and differentiation and may be an essential regulator of myoblast function.

목 적: 항산화 효소인 peroxiredoxin (Prx) I과 II가 유해자극에 의해서 유발되는 세포내 반응성 산소족(reactive oxygen species, ROS)에 대한 방어기전에 관여하는지 알아보고자 이 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: SK-N-BE2C (신경아세포종세포)와 Rat2 (섬유모세포)에서 PrxI과 PrxII 발현을 보기 위하여 방사선조사, cisplatin 단독투여 및 cisplatin-방사선조사병합투여 후에 PrxI과 PrxII에 대한 western blot을 시행하였다. 또한 N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC)에 의하여 PrxI과 PrxII 발현에 미치는 영향과 세포생존율을 함께 조사하였다. 두 종류 세포에 방사선조사, 다양한 농도의 cisplatin을 단독투여 및 방사선조사와 병합투여 시 생존율을 각각 분석하였고 SK-N-BE2C의 각 군에서 시간별 생존율을 관찰하였다. 결 과: PrxI의 발현은 SK-N-BE2C에서 방사선조사 후 60분까지 증가하였으나 NAC 전처치한 경우 방사선조사 후 60분에서는 대조군에 비하여 약간 증가하였다. Rat2에서는 방사선조사 후 NAC 전처치 여부에 관계없이 증가하지 않았다. PrxII의 발현은 두 가지 세포 모두에서 방사선조사와 NAC 전처치 여부에 관계없이 증가하지 않았다. SK-N-BE2C와 Rat2에서 다양한 농도의 cisplatin 단독투여나 cisplatin-방사선조사병합시에는 PrxI 및 PrxII의 발현은 증가하지 않았다. SK-N-BE2C와 Rat2에서 NAC 전처치 여부에 따른 방사선조사군 및 cisplatin-방사선조사병합군의 생존율을 각각 비교한 결과 PrxI의 발현이 증가되었고, NAC 전처치하였으며 cisplatin의 농도가 낮을수록 유의하게 생존율이 높았다. SK-N-BE2C에서 NAC를 전처치한 방사선조사군의 생존율이 NAC 전처치 안한 방사선조사군에 비하여 높은 경향만 보였으나, Rat2에서는 유의한 차이로 NAC를 전처치한 방사선조사군의 생존율이 높았다. SK-N-BE2C에서 시간별 생존율을 측정한 결과는 방사선조사군과 cisplatin-방사선조사병합군을 비교하면 방사선조사군이 빠른 세포생존율의 감소를 보였으며 12시간 때에 최대의 차이를 보였으나 48시간에서는 cisplatin-방사선조사병합군의 세포생존율이 유의하게 낮았다. 결 론: 방사선조사로 반응성 산소족이 증가되면 PrxI 발현이 증가되었으며 반응성 산소족 청소제인 NAC의 전처치에 의하여 PrxI의 발현이 감소되었다. Cisplatin은 PrxI의 발현을 억제하여 반응성 산소족에 의한 세포손상을 증가시키며 방사선으로 인한 세포치사효과를 증가시켰다고 판단된다. 이상의 결과로 PrxI의 발현여부가 방사선조사나 cisplatin의 세포치사기전에 부분적으로 관여하고 있을 것이라고 생각한다.

암세포가 있는 장소의 온도를 변화시키는 것은 하나의 암 치료 방법이 될 수 있다. 명확한 기전은 아직 잘 밝혀져 있지 않지만, 고온은 미토콘드리아로 신호를 전달해서 cytochrome c를 분비시키는 세포자멸사로의 길로 유도하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 저온은 $30^{\circ}C$ 미만에서 세포자멸사를 유도하지만 심하지 않은 저온에서는($35{\sim}33^{\circ}C$ 혹은 $31{\sim}29^{\circ}C$)오히려 세포자멸사를 막는 것으로 알려져 있다. CC-t6와 GB-d1세포 주는 림프절로 전이된 사람의 담관암과 담낭암에서 확립한 것으로, 이와 같은 전이성 암세포가 온도 변화에 어떻게 반응을 하는지를 연구하기 위해 고온노출($37{\rightarrow}43^{\circ}C$)과 저온노출($37{\rightarrow}17.4^{\circ}C$)을 시행하였다. 세포의 종류나 온도 변화를 통한 스트레스의 방법과 관계없이 죽는 세포가 관찰되었으며, 고온노출이 가장 심한 영향을 주었다. 이런 죽어가는 세포는 세포자멸사가 아닌 세포괴사의 경로를 거치고 있었다. 투과전자현미경을 이용한 관찰에서 세포자멸사적인 모습은 보이지 않았고, caspase-3, -9, cytochrome c, Bax 같은 세포자멸사와 관련된 단백질의 변화도 관찰되지 않았고, 열충격단백질 70과 27도 증가하였다. 결국 CC-t6와 GB-d1 세포는 온도변화를 통한 스트레스를 주었을 경우 세포괴사로 죽음을 알 수 있었다. 온도변화를 통한 스트레스는 열충격단백질의 증가와 함께 세포괴사를 일으켰다. GB-d1과 CC-t6 세포에서 고온은 가장 심각하게 세포괴사를 일으켰으며, 저온은 초기에는 세포괴사를 유발하였으나 12시간 경과후에는 세포분열이 더욱 활발하게 일어나 세포의 생명력을 연장시켜주었다. 결국 이 실험에서는 전이성 암세포를 제거하는 방법으로는 고은이 가장 효과적이며 유용함을 알 수 있었다.

This study examined the α-glucosidase inhibitory, and apoptosis- and anti-muscular-related factors of goat meat extracts from forelegs, hind legs, loin, and ribs. The goat meat extracts were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The gene and protein expression levels of Bcl-2-associated X (bax), p53, and p21 were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunoblotting in AGS and HT-29 cells. The expression levels of Atrogin-1 and MHC1b were examined by RT-PCR in C2C12 myoblasts, and the expression levels of Atrogin-1, muscle atrophy F-box (MAFbx), muscle RING-finger protein-1 (MuRF-1), and myosin heavy chain-7 were investigated by immunoblotting. α-Glucosidase inhibitory activity was higher in ethanol extract than in hydrous and hot water extracts. BAX and p53 expression levels were higher (p<0.05) in AGS cells treated with goat meat extract than those of cells treated with no goat meat extract. In HT-29 cells, the protein expression levels of BAX, p53, and p21 were higher (p<0.05) in the cells treated with goat meat extract than those of cells not treated with goat meat extract. In dexamethasone-treated C2C12 cells, goat meat extract treatment lower (p<0.05) the expression of Atrogin-1 and lower (p<0.05) the expression of MAFbx and MuRF-1. The results of the present study indicate that goat meat extracts have α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in vitro. In addition, apoptosis was induced in AGS cells and HT-29 cells treated with goat meat extract, and anti-muscular atrophy activity was also observed in C2C12 cells treated with goat meat extract.
