Ovarian cancer is common malignant disease with high mortality in the female. However, lymph node metastasis in the head and neck of ovarian cancer is very rare than in para-aortic, pelvic lymph node. A 49-year-old female patient came to our clinic with a left neck mass. After total thyroidectomy and left selective neck dissection for the cervical neck level II, III, IV, V, VI for ovarian cancer and thyroid cancer, she had already undergone chemotherapy (Paclitaxel+Carboplatin) 18 month ago. CT scan showed only lymph node enlargement in left neck level II. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) revealed a hypermetabolic lesion in same area but no other hypermetabolic lesion, especially in the pelvic and abdominal cavity. Fine needle aspiration cytology revealed metastatic carcinoma. The serum level of CA-125 was elevated to 43.8U/mL, whereas other tumor markers (CA 19-9, CEA) were in the normal range. She underwent a revision of selective neck lymph node dissection for the cervical neck levels I, II, and III, and on the review of surgical pathology, metastatic carcinoma was suspected. Thus, we performed immunohistochemical staining for the tissue; as a result, it was finally diagnosed as metastatic ovarian cancer (positive for CK7, ER and PR, and negative for CK20). Adjuvant chemotherapy (Paclitaxel+Carboplatin) was planned on the tumor board, and the patient successfully received chemotherapy.

신선편이 농산물은 소비자에게 편이성을 제공하면서 수요가 크게 증가하고 있으나 가공과정 중 절단, 박피 등의 물리적인 변화로 인하여 쉽게 품질이 변하거나 미생물 증식 등이 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 신선편이 농산물의 저장성 및 안정성 향상을 목적으로 필름이나 용기 형태의 기능성 포장재를 개발하고자 하는 노력이 지속되고 있으며, 아울러 저장기간 연장에 관한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이와 관련하여 저장기간에 영향을 주는 항균, 원적외선, 통기성, 방담, 미약전류, 에틸렌가스 흡착 또는 분해, MA (Modified Atmosphere) 또는 CA (Controlled Atmosphere)와 같은 기체 조성 변화 등을 통해 저장기간을 연장시키는 방법이 주목받고 있는데, 한 가지에 의해서가 아니라 여러 가지 복합적인 요인들이 작용하여 저장기간을 연장시키는 방법이 효과적으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 보다 효과적으로 신선편이 농산물, 식품 등의 저장기간을 연장시키기 위해 발표된 문헌자료를 토대로 저장기간 연장 포장법, 저장기간 연장 포장소재, 종합적인 평가 방법 등을 중심으로 정리하였다.

Purpose: To evaluate the prognostic value of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) in gallbladder cancer (GBC). Materials and Methods: Serum ALP and GGT levels and clinicopathological parameters were retrospectively evaluated in 199 GBC patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the cut-off values of ALP and GGT. Then, associations with overall survival were assessed by multivariate analysis. Based on the significant factors, a prognostic score model was established. Results: By ROC curve analysis, $ALP{\geq}210U/L$ and $GGT{\geq}43U/L$ were considered elevated. Overall survival for patients with elevated ALP and GGT was significantly worse than for patients within the normal range. Multivariate analysis showed that the elevated ALP, GGT and tumor stage were independent prognostic factors. Giving each positive factor a score of 1, we established a preoperative prognostic score model. Varied outcomes would be significantly distinguished by the different score groups. By further ROC curve analysis, the simple score showed great superiority compared with the widely used TNM staging, each of the ALP or GGT alone, or traditional tumor markers such as CEA, AFP, CA125 and CA199. Conclusions: Elevated ALP and GGT levels were risk predictors in GBC patients. Our prognostic model provides infomration on varied outcomes of patients from different score groups.

Objective: To determine the predictors of lympho-vascular space invasion (LVSI) in endometrial cancers which contain mucinous carcinomatous histology. Materials and Methods: Clinical and histopathological data of endometrial carcinomas with a mucinous carcinomatous component diagnosed between January 2007 and January 2014 at the Gynecologic Oncology Department of Zekai Tahir Burak Women's Health Education and Research Hospital were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Twelve patients (25.5%) were positive for LVSI and 35 (74.5%) patients were negative. Patients with LVSI were mostly staged higher than 1A. Mean age, BMI and parity were not significantly different between patient groups. Larger tumor diameter (${\geq}2cm$) (p=0.04) and elevated Ca125 and Ca-19.9 (p=0.01) levels were significant for predicting LVSI. We also found>1/2 myometrial invasion (p<0.001), cervical stromal involvement (p=0.002) and higher grade (2-3) (p=0.001) significant for predicting LVSI. In multivariate analysis we found only grade significant for predicting LVSI. Conclusions: Especially grade of tumor is a crucial factor for determining LVSI in endometrial cancers with mucinous carcinomatous components.

This study was carried out to examine the optimal cultural condition in enzyme activities of CMCase, FPase and xylanase in selected strains which secret extracellular enzymes for using deinking agent to old newsprint. The results of this study were as follow: The production of enzyme by Bacillus pumilus I was maximal as grown on the medium, containing of rice bran+xylan $2.0\%$, peptone $0.8\%,\;K_2HPO_4\;0.1\%\;and\;CaCl_2\;0.06\%$ at pH 8.0 and $28^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours. Optimal cultural condition of B. subtilis I was avicel+xylan $3.5\%,\;urea\;0.4\%,\;K_3PO_4\;0.1\%\;and\;CaCl_2\;0.015\%$ at pH 9.0 and $28^{\circ}C$ for 36 hours. The maximal enzyme production was observed in the medium, containing of avicel+xylan $3.5\%,\;urea\;1.6\%\;and\; K_2HPO_4\;0.125\%$ with pH 9.0 when B. pumilus II was cultured at $28^{\circ}C$ for 60 hours. The production of enzyme by B. subtilis IT was maximal as grown on the medium, containing of xylan $2.0\%,\;yeast\; extract\;0.6\%,\;K_2HPO_4\;0.1\%\;and\;ZnSO_4\;0.04\%$ at pH 8.0 and $34^{\circ}C$ for 36 hours. The activities of FPase and xylanase in tested 4 strains were not much different with Thermomonospora fusca.

Plumbagin, a hydroxy 1,4-naphthoquinone compound from plant metabolites, exhibits anticancer, antibacterial, and antifungal activities via modulating various signaling molecules. However, its effects on vascular functions are rarely studied except in pulmonary and coronary arteries where NADPH oxidase (NOX) inhibition was suggested as a mechanism. Here we investigate the effects of plumbagin on the contractility of skeletal artery (deep femoral artery, DFA), mesenteric artery (MA) and renal artery (RA) in rats. Although plumbagin alone had no effect on the isometric tone of DFA, $1{\mu}M$ phenylephrine (PhE)-induced partial contraction was largely augmented by plumbagin (${\Delta}T_{Plum}$, 125% of 80 mM KCl-induced contraction at $1{\mu}M$). With relatively higher concentrations (>$5{\mu}M$), plumbagin induced a transient contraction followed by tonic relaxation of DFA. Similar biphasic augmentation of the PhE-induced contraction was observed in MA and RA. VAS2870 and GKT137831, specific NOX4 inhibitors, neither mimicked nor inhibited ${\Delta}T_{Plum}$ in DFA. Also, pretreatment with tiron or catalase did not affect ${\Delta}T_{Plum}$ of DFA. Under the inhibition of PhE-contraction with L-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocker (nifedipine, $1{\mu}M$), plumbagin still induced tonic contraction, suggesting $Ca^{2+}$-sensitization mechanism of smooth muscle. Although ${\Delta}T_{Plum}$ was consistently observed under pretreatment with Rho A-kinase inhibitor (Y27632, $1{\mu}M$), a PKC inhibitor (GF 109203X, $10{\mu}M$) largely suppressed ${\Delta}T_{Plum}$. Taken together, it is suggested that plumbagin facilitates the PKC activation in the presence of vasoactive agonists in skeletal arteries. The biphasic contractile effects on the systemic arteries should be considered in the pharmacological studies of plumbagin and 1,4-naphthoquinones.
