소의 갑상선에서 추출한 Xanthine oxidase를 disc gel eleectrophoresis로서 정제도(Purity)를 측정하여 Xanthine oxidase 이외의 다른 불순 단백질이 나타나지 않을 때까지 정제하였다. 그 정제 과정은 Pancreatin digestion, butanol 추출, ammonium sulfate 단백질 침전, calcium phosphate gel-cellulose column chromatography, gel filtration, preparative Sephadex G-25 column electrophoresis와 Preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis 등을 포함하고 있다. 이러한 과정을 통하여 갑상선 Xanthine oxidase는 1,000배 정도 정제되었다. 그러나 효소의 비활성도(Specific activity)는 우유에서 추출한 이 효소에 상응하는 정도로 정제된 효소의 비활성도와 비교 되었을 때 지극히 낮았다. 갑상선 Xanthine oxidase도 효소 반응에 필요한 기질과 electron acceptor의 특수성(Specificity)이 어느 특수한 한 기질에 한정되지 않았음을 보였고 Kinetic 성질도 우유에서 추출된 Xanthine oxidase와 비교하였을 때 가장 일반적인 Xanthine oxidase 기질에 대한 Michaelis 상수(Km)가 약간의 예외도 있었으나 상당히 비슷하였다.

In this study, hyaluronic acid (HyA) - Gelatin (Gel) hydrogels were prepared at ratio of 15:85 with the goal of obtaining a high uniform porosity and porous biocompatibility scaffold for bone tissue engineering applications. In order to develop a proper scaffold for bone implant application, a HyA-Gel hydrogel loaded in sponge Biphasic Calcium Phosphate (BCP) was prepared. To assay the cytocompatibility and cell behavior on the HyA-Gel hydrogel and HyA-Gel/BCP scaffold, cell attachment and spreading of MSCs seeded on the scaffolds were studied. An invivo study was performed for HyA-Gel/BCP scaffolds after 1 and 3 months implantation. Our results provide a novel and simple method to obtain an adequate scaffold for osteoblast cells and indicate that HyA-Gel hydrogel and HyA-Gel/BCP scaffold could be a good candidate for bone tissue engineering scaffolds.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the enhancement of osteogenic potential of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) bone substitute coated with Escherichia coli-derived recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (ErhBMP-2) and epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). Methods: The cell viability, differentiation, and mineralization of osteoblasts was tested with ErhBMP-2-/EGCG solution. Coated BCP surfaces were also investigated. Standardized, 6-mm diameter defects were created bilaterally on the maxillary sinus of 10 male New Zealand white rabbits. After removal of the bony windows and elevation of sinus membranes, ErhBMP-2-/EGCG-coated BCP was applied on one defect in the test group. BCP was applied on the other defect to form the control group. The animals were sacrificed at 4 or 8 weeks after surgery. Histologic and histometric analyses of the augmented graft and surrounding tissue were performed. Results: The 4-week and 8-week test groups showed more new bone (%) than the corresponding control groups (P<0.05). The 8-week test group showed more new bone (%) than the 4-week test group (P<0.05). Conclusions: ErhBMP-2-/EGCG-coated BCP was effective as a bone graft material, showing enhanced osteogenic potential and minimal side effects in a rabbit sinus augmentation model.

In the present study, it was aimed to find the role of calcium on the maturation of mouse follicular oocytes as well as for the role of calcium inhibitors, $Ni^{2+}$ and $La^{3+}$. Mouse follicular oocytes were cultivated in different media at $37^{\circ}C$, in 100% humidified $CO_2$ incubator for 3 and 17 hrs. The results were as follows; 1. There was no differences in GVBD between the control and experimental groups during the 3 hr culture. 2. Mouse oocytes were matured to higher rate in MHBS rather than HTF for 17 hr culture. 3. Maturation rate was significantly lower in $Ca^{2+}$-free and $Ca^{2+}$ 0.4 mM which were tested, compared to other calcium concentration used in the present study. 4. Calcium inhibitor, $Ni^{2+}$, it showed highest degeneration rate at all calcium concentrations and additionally in $Ni^{2+}$ $100{\mu}M$ treated group next. Maturation rate was significantly decrease as the $Ca^{2+}$ inhibitor concentration increased. 5. In all Lanthanum treated groups of calcium-free, degeneration were significantly high treated groups at 0.4 mM $Ca^{2+}$ concentrations degeneration rates of all group were significantly lower than that of the control but maturation rates were not significantly different in any group. In lanthanum $100{\mu}M$ treated group at 0.4 mM and 0.8 mM calcium concentration, its maturation rate was significantly higher than that of the control. Maturation rates of all groups of lanthanum treated at 1.71 mM calcium concentration were not significantly different among groups. 6. In the calcium treated group (0.4mM-1.7 mM), the presence of phosphate does not seem to be needed for oocyte maturation. However, the presence of phosphate at $Ca^{2+}$ 0.8 mM only seems to stimulated maturation.

Background: Carbonate apatite ($CO_3Ap$) and silica-calcium phosphate composite (SCPC) are bone substitutes with good prospect for dental application. SCPC creates a hydroxyapatite surface layer and stimulate bone cell function while, $CO_3Ap$ induce apatite crystal formation with good adaptation providing good seal between cement and the bone. Together, these materials will add favorable properties as a pulp capping material to stimulate mineral barrier and maintain pulp vitality. The aim of this study is to investigate modification of $CO_3Ap$ cement combined with SCPC, later term as $CO_3Ap-SCPC$ cement (CAS) in means of its chemical (Calcium release) and physical properties (setting time, DTS and pH value). Methods: The study consist of three groups; group 1 (100% calcium hydroxide, group 2 $CO_3Ap$ (60% DCPA: 40% vaterite, and group 3 CAS (60% DCPA: 20% vaterite: 20% SCPC. Distilled water was employed as a solution for group 1, and $0.2mol/L\;Na_3PO_4$ used for group 2 and group 3. Samples were evaluated with respect to important properties for pulp capping application such as pH, setting time, mechanical strength and calcium release evaluation. Results: The fastest setting time was in $CO_3Ap$ cement group without SCPC, while the addition of 20% SCPC slightly increase the pH value but did not improved the cement mechanical strength, however, the mechanical strength of both $CO_3Ap$ groups were significantly higher than calcium hydroxide. All three groups released calcium ions and had alkaline pH. Highest pH level, as well as calcium released level, was in the control group. Conclusion: The CAS cement had good mechanical and acceptable chemical properties for pulp capping application compared to calcium hydroxide as a gold standard. However, improvements and in vivo studies are to be carried out with the further development of this material.

The effect of Ginseng on global myocardial ischemia and reperfusion was examined in isolated perfused rat hearts. The Ginseng ethanol extract (100mg/kg/day) was administered orally for 10 days. The rat hearts were removed and perfused at 75cm $H_{2}O$ by the Langendorff method. After 25 min. of global ischemia, the hearts were reperfused. The myocardial contents of adenosine 5'-triphosphate, creatine phosphate, and calcium were assayed. There no differences in ATP levels in all group of normal and Ginseng-treated hearts. Both in non-ischemic and ischemic heart, Ginseng increased significantly tissue creatine phosphate levels compared with control. Whereas, in ischemic-reperfused heart, there was no significant difference. In the control groups, myocardial calcium contents in the ischemic hearts were decreased compared with the non-ischemic hearts. But, in the Ginseng-treated groups, the calcium contents in the ischemic herts were not changed with the nonischemic hearts. Therefore, Ginseng appears to exert its protective effect against ischemic heart condition, not against ischemic-reperfused heart condition, by regulating energy metabolism and maintaing cellular function.

This study was performed to develop a useful nerve conduit which provides favorable environment for Schwann cell viability and proliferation. Milipore membrane of $0.45{\mu}m$ pore size was selected because it permits nutritional inflow from the outside of the conduit and prevents from invading the fibrotic tissue into the conduit. The membrane was rolled and sealed to form a conduit of 2mm diameter and 20mm length. To improve the axonal regeneration and to render better environment for endogenous and exogenous Schwann cell behaviour, the microgeometry and surface of conduit was modified by coating with thin film of calcium phosphate. Cellular viability within the conduit and attachment to its wall were assessed with MTT assay and SEM study. Milipore filter conduit showed significantly higher rate of Schwann cell attachment and viability than the culture dish. However, the reverse was true in case of fibroblast. Coating with thin film of low crystalline calcium phosphate made more favorable environment for both cells with minimal change of pore size. These findings means the porous calcium phosphate coated milipore nerve conduit can provide much favorable environment for endogenous Schwann cell proliferation and exogenous ones, which are filled within the conduit for the more advanced strategy of peripheral nerve regeneration, with potential of reducing fibrotic tissue production.
