Although primordial germ cells(PGCs) have been used in the production of germline chimera, efficiency has not been satisfactory. The Present study was conducted to improve efficiency of germline chimera production using the cultured gonadal PGCs(gPGCs). Germline chimeric chickens were produced by transfer of cultured gonadal primordial germ cells from Korean Ogol Chicken (KOC) to White Leghorn (5.5-day-old) and cultured in vitro for 10 days. Approximately 200 gPGCs (2-day-old) recipient embryos from which blood had been withdrawn via the dorsal aorta prior to the injection. Recipient embryos were incubated until hatching. Germline chimerism of the chickens reaching maturity was examined by mating them with Korean Ogol Chicken. Donor-derived offspring were identified as germline chimeric chickens based on their feather color. The frequency of germline transmission of donor PGCs ranged 1.9∼60.7%. There was no difference between both sexes. Therefore, it can be concluded that efficiency of germline chimerism can be improved via using cultured gPGCs.

폐이식후의 수용자들의 낮은 생존율은 주로 거부반응 또는 면역억제제 사용에 따른 합병증과 관련이 있다. 따라서 이식편에대한 수용자의 관용을 유도해낼 수 있는 더욱 좋은 방법이 절실히 요구된다. 저자 는 동종의 골수간세포가 주입되어진 혼합동종이 인자형 키메라 쥐에서 특정 동종 공여군의 공여 폐이식 편에대한 관용의 초래여부를 연구하였다. Fisher(F344)와 Wistar Forth(WF)종주의 쥐에서 치사량의 (1100c0y) 방사선조사후 T-임파구를 제거한 동일종주와 동종이인자형 골수의 혼합물로 재구성하였다 (F)44+WFIWF, AC1+F3441F3f4).28일후 말초혈액에서 임파구형의 검사로 혼합형 키메리즘이 확 인된 쥐에서 특정 공여군 또는 제3군의 동종 공여폐로 좌측의 동소 폐이식을시행하였다. 이식후 어떠 한 면역억제제도 투여하지 않았다. 이식편의 거부는 흉부 X선검사로 관찰하였고 조직학적으로 확인하 였다. 혼합형 키메라쥐들은 특정 공여군의 폐들을 받아들였으나 종주들 끼리의 특정효과에의한 것은 아 니었고, 이들에서 150일이상 거부반응을 관찰할 수 없었다. 이식편에대한 관용은 키메리즘의 백분율과 는 관계없이 일어났으며 제3군의 공여폐에대해서 \ulcorner정상대조군에서와 마찬가지로 10일내에 이식편에 대한거부반응이 완료되었다. 이 결과들은흔합형 키메라에서 정상적인 면역기전을 유지하면서도,특정 공여군의 폐이식후 안정적이고_1. 지속적 인, 이식 편에대한 관용이 일어난다는 것을 보여준다.

Multiplex PCR-based short tandem repeat (STR) analysis is considered as a good tool for monitoring bone marrow engraftment after sex-mismatched allogeneic transplantation and provides a sensitive and accurate assessment of the contribution of both donor and/or recipient cells in post-transplantation specimens. Forensic STR analysis and quantitative real time PCR are used to determine the proportion of donor versus recipient each contained within the total DNA. The STR markers were co-amplified in a single reaction by using commercial $PowerPlex^{(R)}$ 16 system and $AmpFISTR^{(R)}$ $Identifiler^{(R)}$ / $Yfiler^{(R)}$ PCR amplification kits. Separation of the PCR products and fluorescence detection were performed by ABI $PRIS^{(R)}$ 3100 Genetic Analyzer with capillary electrophoresis. The $GeneMapper^{TM}$ ID software were used for size calling and analysis of STR profiles. Extracted DNA was quantified by the $Quantifiler^{TM}$ Human DNA / Y Human Male DNA Quantification Kit The intent of this study was to analyze the ratio of donor versus recipient cells in the post-transplant peripheral blood, spleen, lung and kidney specimens. Specimens were taken from the traffic accident male victim who had been engrafted from bone marrow female donor. Blood and spleen specimens displayed female donor DNA profile. Kidney specimen showed male recipient DNA profile. Interestingly, lung tissue showed mixed profiles. The findings of this study indicate that the forensic STR analysis using fluorescence labeling PCR combined with capillary electrophoresis is quick and reliable enough to assess the ratio of donor versus recipient cells and to monitor the mixed chimeric patterns.

Background: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a huddle for success of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this study, effects of irradiation dose on immune kinetics of GVHD were investigated using B6 ${\rightarrow}$ BALB.B system, a mouse model for GVHD after MHC-matched allogeneic transplantation. Methods: BALB.B mice were transplanted with bone marrow and spleen cells from C57BL/6 mice after irradiation with different doses. Leukocytes residing in the peripheral blood and target organs were collected periodically from the GVHD hosts for analysis of chimerism formation and immune kinetics along the GVHD development via flow cytometry. Myeloid cells were tested for production of IL-17 via flow cytometry. Results: Pre-conditioning of BALB.B hosts with 900 cGy and 400 cGy resulted in different chimerism of leukocytes from the blood and affected survival of GVHD hosts. Profiles of leukocytes infiltrating GVHD target organs, rather than profiles of peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs), were significantly influenced by irradiation dose. Proportions of IL-17 producing cells in the infiltrating $Gr-1^+$ or $Mac-1^+$ cells were higher in the GVHD hosts with high does irradiation than those with low dose irradiation. Conclusion: Pre-conditioning dose affected tissue infiltration of leukocytes and cytokine production by myeloid cells in the target organs.

Chimerism has become an important tool for investigating fundamental aspects of early embryonic development and differentiation in mammals for producing transgenic animals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the developmental capacity of chimeric embryos reconstructed with parthenotes and IVF bovine embryos into empty zona pellucida. The MII oocytes were activated by two treatment groups [Group 1, 5 μM inomycin, 5min, ＋ 10 ㎍/㎖ cycloheximide (CHX)/5 ㎍/㎖ cytochalasin B (CCB), 3 h; Group 2, 5 μM ionomycin, 5 min ＋ 1.9 mM 6-dimetylaminopurine (6-DMAP), 3 h].

To obtain monozygotic multiplets from 8-cell mouse embryos, we artificially constructed chimeric embryos by introducing one blastomere (donor) of 8-cell embryos of Fl hybrid (C57BL/6 X CBA) mice into 4-cell ICR mouse embryos (carrier) of which one blastomere had been previously removed with a micromanipulator. After 42 h of culture, the developmental frequency of chimeric embryos to normal morula and blastocyst was 95% (310/328). When chimeric embryos at morula or blastocvst stage were transferred to pseudopregnant mice,39%, (70/180) of them were born. Most of the offspring (56/70) were the carrier type in coat color, whereas only three of them were the donor type, of which ho were assumed to be derived from single 8-cell donor embryo. Because the two donor type mice Ivere the same sex and produced only the donor type offspring from a testcross, they are probably monozvgotic multiplets of 8-cell mouse embryos. However, since their internal chimerism was not able to be examined, it remains to be determined if their genetic constitutions are identical.

This study was conducted to detect the Y-specific DNA in the blood of the female calf in bovine heterosexual production. Genomic DNAs of the freemartin were isolated from the blood and amplified with Y-chromosome specific DNA primer(l4lbp). In order to estimate the lower limit for the detection of XY cells, blood from a hull was diluted in cow blood to 0.01%. DNA sequencing on the PCR products was shown the same sequences as Y chromosome DNA of the normal cows. The Y specific DNA hand by PCR was detected all blood of female calf suspected to have bovine freemar tin syndrom and the karyotyping with freemartin blood was identified as XX / XY chimerism. Therefore, the PGR methods used in this study was very useful technique for the detection of freemartin in Ranwoo and Holstein.

A novel sterategy has been established to determine the origin of the Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs) in avian embryos directly and the developmental fate of the PGCs for the application to Poultry biotechnology. Cells were removed from 1) the centre of area pellucida, 2) the outer of area pellucida and 3) the area opaca of the stage X blastoderm (Eyal-Giladi & Kochav, 1976). When the cells were removed from the centre of area pellucida, the mean number of circulating PGCs in blood was significantly decreased in the embryo at stage 15 (Hamburger & Hamilton, 1951) as compared to intact embryos. When the cells were replenished with donor cells, no reduction in the PGCs number was observed. The removal of cells at the outer of area pellucida or at the area opaca had no effect on the number of PGCs. In case, another set of the manipulated embryos were cultured ex vivo to the hatching and reared to the sexual maturity, the absence of germ cells and degeneration of seminiferous tubules was observed in resulting chickens derived from the blastoderm in which the cells were removed from the centre of the area pellucida. It was concluded that the avian Primordial Germ cells are originated at the center of area pellucida. Developmental ability of the cells to differentiate into somatic cells and germ cells in chimeras were analyzed. Somatic chimerism was detected as black feather attributed from donor cells. Molecular identification by use of female - specific DNA was performed. It was confirmed that the donor cells could be differentiated into chimeric body and erythrocytes. Donor cells retained the ability to differentiate into germline in chimeric gonads. More than 70% of the generated chimeras transmitted donor derived gametes to their offspring indicating that the cells at the center of area pellucida had the high ability to differentiate into germ cells. A molecular technique to identify germline chimerism has been developed by use of gene scan analysis. Strain specific DNA fragments were amplified by the method. It would be greatly contributed for the detection of germline chimerism. Mixed- sex chimeras which contained both male and female cells were produced to investigate the developmental fate of male and female cells in ovary and testes. The sex combinations of donor and recipient of the resulting chimeras were following 4 pairs; (1) chimeras (ZZ/ZZ) produced by a male donor (ZZ) and a male recipient (ZZ), (2) chimeras (ZW/ZW) produced by a female donor (ZW) and a female recipient (ZW), (3) chimeras (ZZ/ZW) Produce by a male donor (ZZ) and a female recipient (ZW), (4) chimeras (ZW/ZZ) produced by a female donor (ZW) and a male recipient (ZZ). It was found that genetically male avian germ cells could differentiate into functional ova and that genetically female germ cells can differentiate into functional spermatozoa in the gonad of the mixed- sex chimeras. An ability for introduction of exogenous DNA into the PGCs from stage X blastoderms were analyzed. Two reporter genes, SV-$\beta$gal and RSV-GFP, were introduced into the PGCs. Expression of bacterial/gal was improved by complexing DNA with liposome detectedcc in 75% of embryos at 3 days embryos. At the embryos incubated for 1 day, expression of the GFP was observed all the embryos. At day 3 of incubation, GFP was detected in about 70% of the manipulated embryos. In case of GFP, expression of the transgene was detected in 30 %e of the manipulated embryos. These results suggested that the cells is one of the most promising vectors for transgenesis. The established strategy should be very powerfull for application to poultry biotechnology.

본 실험은 phospholipase C (PLC)-$\beta$-3 및 peroxiredoxin (Prx) II 유전자가 적중 ($\Delta$)된 J1 마우스 배아주 (embryonic stem) 세포로부터 생식선이행 카이미라 마우스생산을 위한 제반조건 및 배아주세포의 배양조건을 확립하기 위하여 수행되었다. 80% 이상의 정상핵형을 보이는 유전자 적중된 4개의 클론 ($\Delta$Pu II C3, $\Delta$Pu II C3, C10 및 15)으로부터 카이미라를 생산하였을 때 형태적으로 분화정도가 높은 클론 ($\Delta$PLC$\beta$-3 C3)의 이용은 카이미라의 생산율 (21.1%)과는 무관하게 카이미리즘 (＜ 20%)이 낮았고, 수컷 카이미라의 생산 빈도 (7/15, 46%)도 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 형태적으로 안정된 3개의 클론 ($\Delta$Prx II C3, C10 및 15)은 80% 이상의 높은 카이미리즘을 지닌 마우스 (9/13, 69.2%)를 생산하였고, 수컷 카이미라의 생산율 (l1/13, 84.6%)도 증대된 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 80% 이상의 정상핵형을 지닌 배아주 세포를 형태적으로 안정하게 유지하는 것이 카이미리즘이 높은 마우스를 생산하는데 결정적 요인으로 작용할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 미세주입용 배반포를 효율적으로 생산하기 위해 5~10주령 사이의 C57BL/6J 암컷마우스를 교배 한 결과, 10주령 마우스가 미세주입가능한 3.5일령 배반포를 가장 많이 생산 (2.94개/마리)하였다. 또한 미세주입된 배반포를 이식하기 위해 ICR 및 ICR$\times$C57BL/6J F1 (IBF1)위임신 대리모를 사용하였을 때, IBF1이 복당 산자수 (2.8 vs. 5.6)가 많았고 카이미라 생산율 (0 vs. 35.3%)도 매우 높았다. 따라서 공여마우스의 주령 및 대리모의 선택이 카이미라 생산효율 향상에 중요한 요인으로 부각되었다. 결과적으로 핵형이 안정된 ES 세포를 동정하는 것은 물론 클로닝 과정중에 형태적으로 분화가 없도록 ES세포를 배양하는 것이 카이미리즘이 높은 마우스를 생산하고 아울러 생식선 이행 빈도를 증가시키는데 결정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 확인되었다.

본 연구는 생식선 키메라 생산효율을 높이기 위한 방법으로 busulfan 가온 주입법을 이용하여 효과적인 원시생식 세포의 이동능력을 검증하였다. 효율적인 생식선 키메라 닭 생산에서 중요한 요건 중 하나인 공여체 원시생식세포의 생존율을 측정한 실험에서는 시간이 지남에 따라 생존율에 변화를 보였으나, 평균 $70{\sim}80%$을 유지하고 있었으며, busulfan 처리 유무에 따른 공여체 원시생식세포 이동능력은 형광염색 후 주입한 실험에서 대조구가 4.8%인 반면 실험구는 23.5%을 나타냈다. 이식전 원시생식세포 배양 조건에 따라, 96시간과 118시간 배양 처리구에서 높은 이동능력을 보여 주었다. 원시생식세포의 형태학적, 생리학적 특징을 응용한 이식방법은 매우 효과적일 것이다. 그리고 본 연구에서는 생식반월의 발달단계 별 busulfan 처리 효과는 48시간이 가장 높은 53.4%였으며, 그러나 본 연구에서는 생식반월 유래 원시생식세포 이식은 48시간 이전, 혈관계가 발달하기 직전으로 가장 높은 효율을 보였다. 결론적으로 생식선 키메라 방법을 통한 형질전환 닭 생산 연구의 가장 큰 관건은 최대한 많은 수의 공여체 원시생식세포가 수용체의 저해작용 없이 안정적으로 수용체 gonad로 이동하여 분화하는 것으로, 본 연구 결과를 토대로 개선된 방법을 이용하면 높은 효율의 생식선 키메라 닭이 생산될 것으로 사료된다.
