In order to investigate the factors of the control mechanism of somitogenesis, early chick embryos (H-H stage $8{\sim}13$) were treated with heat shock, ${\alpha}$-amanitin and cycloheximide and morphological changes of somite were examined by light microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy. In normal chick embryo, somites were formed from the somitomere which preexisted in segmental plate. Somites were wrapped with extracellular collagen fibrils and connected with neural tube, notochord and ectoderm. And then, somites were differentiated to sclerotome, dermatome and myotome by the interaction of nervous tissue. Abnormal somites were observed after formation of six or seven so mites in heat shock treated group. Amounts of collagen fibrils were obviously decreased in this group. In cycloheximide treated group, most so mites were smaller and neural tube formation was incomplete. Chromatins were condenced and formed several heterochromatins in the nucleus of somite cells. Lipid like cytoplasmic dense mass and lipid droplets were also observed. Segmentation of somites seemed to be normal progress in ${\alpha}$-amanitin treated group. Center of somite, however, hollowed in longitudinal sectioned samples. These results suggested that so mites were already existed in the segmental plate as the form of somitomere. Segmented somites were contacted with neural tube or notochord and the somites were tightly connected with each other by the extracellular collagen fibrils which were secreted from neuroepithelium and somite cells. Somites are thought to differentiate into sclerotome, dermatome and myotome by these interactions.

계배 근원세포의 배양 배지에 calcium ionophore A23187이나 EGTA를 배양 24시간에 첨가함으로서 초래된 세포내 칼슘 농도의 변화는 근원세포의 분화과정에 상당한 영향을 미쳤다. 배양 24시간에 A23187이나 EGTA를 첨가한 후 배양 48시간, 72시간, 및 96시간에 각각 세포를 [35S]methionine으로 1시간 표지시킨 후 수확하여 2차원 전기영동법으로 단백질을 분리시켰을 때, 일부 단백질은 배양 조건에 따라 합성 양상을 달리함을 보였다. 배양 24시간에 처리한 A23187과 calcium-activated neutral protease는 대조군에 비해 세포융합을 촉진시켰으나 동일 시기에 처리된 phosphoprotein을 정량함으로써 조사하였을 때, A23187이 배양 초기에는 대조군에 비해 약간 이 효소의 활성도를 높이는 효과를 보였으나 세포융합이 완성된 시기인 96시간에는 대조군에 비해 활성도를 높이는 효과를 보였으나 세포융합이 완성된 시기인 96시간에는 대조군에 비해 활성도의 차이를 나타내지 않았다. A23187 및 calcium-activated neutral protease에 의한 세포융합의 촉진, 그리고 A23187에 의한 protein kinase C 활성도의 증가가 모두 근원세포의 융합이 활발히 진행되는 시기인 배양 48-72 시간에 관찰됨을 볼 때, 세포내 칼슘의 농도는 protein kinase C 및 calcium-activated neutral protease와 상호연관을 가지면서 세포분화에 관여하는 것으로 사료된다.

Monochromatic green light-emitting diodes (LED) light stimuli influences the posthatch growth performance of chicks. This study was undertaken with the following objectives: i) to examine whether the green LED light stimuli induces an overheating effect by determining weight loss rate of fertile eggs during incubation period; ii) to look for the development of eyes and other primary organs at different ages of embryos and newly hatched chicks. Arbor Acres fertile broiler eggs (n = 480) were randomly assigned to 3 incubation groups and exposed to continuous white light, green light, or a dark environment (control) from the first day to 19 d of incubation. The light sourced from LED lamps with the intensity of 30 lx at eggshell level. The results showed that either green or white light stimuli during incubation did not significantly affect the weight loss rate of fertile eggs, hatching time, hatchability, chick embryo, or body weight (BW), the weight percentage of heart, liver, and eyes, as well as obvious systematic abnormalities in eye weight, side-to-side, back-to-front, or corneal diameter from 15 d of embryogenesis to 6 d of posthatch (p>0.05). Compared with the dark condition, green light stimuli during incubation tended to increase feed intake (p = 0.080), improved the BW gain of chicks during 0 to 6 day posthatch (p<0.05), and increased the percentage of pectoral muscle to the BW on 3- and 6-day-old chicks. In addition, embryos or chicks in green light had lower weight percentage of yolk retention on 19 d of embryogenesis and 1 d of posthatch in comparison to those in dark or white group (p<0.05). These results suggest that providing 30 lx green LED light stimuli during incubation has no detrimental effect on the development of eyes, heart and liver of embryos and hatchlings, but does have potential benefits in terms of enhancement of the chick growth during the early posthatch stages. In addition, the fertile broiler eggs stimulated with 30 lx green LED light during incubation does not cause an overheating effect.

연골세포 분화기구 연구의 기초단계로서 미세 세포배양법을 정립하였으며, 세포의 응집정도와 연골분화의 관계를 조사하기 위하여 계배 limb bod 간충직세포를 여러가지 농도로 micromass 배양하면서 세포농도에 따른 세포증식정도와 proteoglycan에 결합된 alcian blue의 양 및 [35 S] sulfate의 sulfate proteohlycan에 표지되는 속도를 측정하고, 면역조직화학법을 이용하여 type II collegen의 발현을 관찰하였다. 각 농도별로 배양한 Hambruger-Hamilton stage 23/24 간충직세포 중 5. $\times$ 106 cells/ml 이상의 농도로 배양한 세포는 연골세포로 분화하였으나, 저농도로 배양한 세포는 분화하지 않았다. 반면에 stage 18/19 간충직세포는 분화단계 중에서 동일세포들끼리 응집되는 단계이며 stage 23/24 간충직세포 이 단계를 지나 분화능을 갖는 세포응축의 단계인 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구 결과 세포응집 및 분화능은 간충직세포의 발생시기에 따라 다르며, 분화능을 갖기 위해서는 세포응집이 선행조건이고, 그 적정 미세 배양 농도는 5-10 $\times$ 106 cells/ml임을 알았다. 한편, hyaluronidase의 활성은 stage 23/24세포 배양 전 과정에서 비교적 일정한 것으로 나타나 이 시기의 세포분화에는 별로 중요하지 않는 것으로 보인다.

A new angiogenesis inhibitor, FR-118487 was obtained by chemical modification of FR-111142 which was isolated from the fermentation products of Scolecobasidium arenarium F-2015. The antiangiogenic activity of FR-118487 was compared with that of the parent compound, FR-111142. In the endothelial cell proliferation test in vitro and the angiogenesis in the chick embryo chorioal-lantoic membrane assay, FR-118487 had about 5∼10 times stronger antiangiogenic activities than FR-111142. In addition, FR-118487 inhibited the angiogenesis in the rabbit corneal assay and suppressed the solid tumor growth in mice. These findings showed that FR-118487 would be a unique antiangiogenic agent with promising antitumor activity.

In the present study, the localization of myosin and the pathway of myofibrilogenesis of skeletal muscle cells in culture were investigated by immunocytochemical methods including immunoelectron microscopy and hybridoma formation. There were manly free ribosomes in the cytosol of the myoblast. At 48 hr of the culture, the myofilaments started to form and at 72 hr began to assemble to form myoabrils. At this time the Z band appeared, but the sarcomeres did not link together. Aker 96 hr of culture, adjacent sarcomeres linked together and shotved the typical striation of the skeletal muscle fiber. Myosin was synthesized in free ribosomes at 24 hr of culture and localized at many myofilaments at 48 hr and assembled mvoabrils at 72 hr and at 120 hr of the culture, myosin was localized at thick filaments of the A band.

Propolis, obtained from honeybee hives, has been used in Oriental folk medicine as an anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, and immunomodulatory agent. There is considerable evidence suggesting that angiogenesis and chronic inflammation are codependent. Blockage of angiogenesis results in an anti-inflammatory effect. Ethanol (EEP) and ether extracts of propolis (REP), and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an active component of propolis, were examined for their anti-angiogenic activities using the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), and the calf pulmonary arterial endothelial (CPAE) cell proliferation, assays. The presence of EEP, REP and CAPE inhibited angiogenesis in the CAM assay and the proliferation of CPAE cells. The results suggest that anti-angiogenic activities of EEP, REP and CAPE are also responsible for their anti-inflammatory effect.

Telomeres are the end of chromosomes and consist of a tandem repeat sequence of (TTAGGG)n and associated proteins. Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein which act as a template for the synthesis of telomeric DNA. Telomeres are essential for chromosome stability and are related with cell senescence, apoptosis and cancer. Even though telomeres and telomerase have been studied extensively, very little is known about telomere dynamics in embryonic cells. This study was carried out to analyze the telomeres distribution and telomerase activity of chicken cells during embryonic and developmental stages. The target cells for analysing were sperms, ovulated ova, early embryonic cells and the cells from brain, heart, liver, kidney and germinal tissue in fetus. Telomeres distribution on target cells was analyzed by Q-FISH (Quantitation-Fluorescence in situ Hybridization) techniques using a chicken telomere repeat probe. Telomerase activity was performed by TRAP assay (Telomeric repeat Amplification Protocol) with target DNA. In results, the telomeres of chicken were found at the ends of all chromosomes. In addition, chicken had interstitial telomeres on chromosomes 1, 2 and 3. Telomerase activity was highly detectable in early embryonic cells, germinal tissues and kidney cells. Whereas telomerase activity was gradually down-regulated when the organs, including brain, heart, and liver, were developed from embryos. In the distribution of telomeric DNA on the embryonic and developmental stages, most of the cells was gradually decreased in telomere quantity during ontogenesis.

발생 12일째의 계배근세포를 약 7일간 배양하면서 자외선에 의한 절제회복, 광재활성 및 DNA 복제억제율을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 자외선에 의한 절제회복은 계배근세포의 분화정도가 진행됨에 따라 감소하였으며, 이는 특히 자외선의 선량이 높을수록 뚜렷하였다. DNA 합성율은 분화가 진행된 세포일수록 현저히 감소하는 경향이었으며 각 분화단계에 따른 DNA 복제억제 현상은 배양 초기 세포인 경우 자외선 조사후 30분에서 1시간반 사이에서 가장 심하게 나타났고, 배양후기의 세포에서는 이러한 억제현상이 뚜렷하지 않았다. 또 배양 1일째 세포에서 광재활성에 의한 피리미딘 이량체의 감소율은 자외선 조사직후에 현저하였다가 그후 시간의 경과에 따른 차이는 보이지 않았다. 그러나, 절제회복만에 의한 이량체의 감소는 조사후 시간이 지남에 따라 서서히 감소하여 광재활성에 의한 이량체의 감소량과 비슷한 수준으로 접근하였다.
