Coelomoic fluid protein (CP), a vitellogenin contained in the coelomic fluid of polychaetes, is transported by receptor-mediated endocvtosis that is controlled by GTP-binding proteins. Transport of 125l-CP was markedly inhibited by AlF4 and toxins such as cholera toxin and pertussis toxin. These effects appear to be mediated by cAMP, since 125l-CP transport was also greatly inhibited by dibutyryl cAMP. The results strongly suggest that hetero trimeric G-protein is involved in the regulation of 125l=CP transport through the activation of adenylyl cyclase. Immunoblotting tests with antibodies against Gsa and Gia subunits showed a Gsa subunit of 45 kDa in the membrane of oocytes of intermediate and large size classes and a Gia subunit of 41 kDa only in the oocytes of the intermediate size class.

Browse tree legume leaves from Acacia spp (A. nilotica, A. tortilis, A. polyacantha), Dichrostachys sp, Flagea villosa, Piliostigma thonningii, Harrisonia sp were evaluated for nutritive potential (chemical compositions and degradability characteristics) compared to Gliricidia sepium. Effect of tannins anti-nutritive activity on digestibility was also assessed by polyethylene glycol (PEG) tannin bioassay. Crude protein (CP), ash, neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and acid detergent lignin (ADL) differed (p<0.05) between legume foliages. Mean CP, ash, NDF, ADF and ADL for fodder species tested were 158, 92, 385, 145, and 100 g/kg DM, respectively. CP ranged from 115 (P. thonningii) to 205 g/kg DM (G. sepium). Acacia spp had moderate CP values (g/kg DM) of 144 (A. nilotica), to high CP in A. tortilis (188) and A. polyacantha (194) comparable to G. sepium. The forages had relatively lower fiber compositions. A. nilotica had (p<0.05) lowest NDF, ADF and ADL (182, 68 and 44) compared to P. thonningii (619, 196 and 130) g/kg DM, respectively. Except G. sepium, all fodder species had detectable high phenolic and tannin contents greater than 5% DM, an upper beneficial level in animal feeding and nutrition. Mean total phenolics (TP), total tannins (TT) and condensed tannins (CT) (or proanthocyanidins) for fodder species tested were 139, 113 and 43 mg/g DM, respectively. F. villosa had (p<0.05) lowest TP and TT of 65 and 56 mg/g DM, respectively, compared to A. nilotica (237 and 236 mg/g DM, respectively). The CT varied (p<0.05) from 6 (F. villosa) to 74 mg/g DM (Dichrostachys sp). In vitro organic matter (OM) degradability (OMD) differed (p<0.05) between fodder species. G. sepium had (p<0.05) high degradability potential compared to A. polyacantha that had (p<0.05) the lowest OMD values. Forage degradability ranked: G. sepium>A. nilotica>P. thonningi>F. villosa>Dichrostachys sp>A. tortilis>A. polyacantha. Addition of PEG resulted to (p<0.05) improvement in in vitro OM digestibility (IVD). Increase in IVD was mainly due to binding action of PEG on tannins; and represents potential nutritive values previously depressed by tannins anti-nutritive activity. Browse fodder has potential as sources of ruminal nitrogen especially for ruminants consuming low quality roughages due to high protein, lower fiber compositions and high potential digestibility. However, utilization of browse supplements in ruminants is hampered by high phenolic and tannin contents. Deactivation of tannin anti-nutritive activity, possibly by feeding tanniniferous browse with other readily available nitrogen sources to dilute tannin anti-nutritive activity could improve utilization of browse fodder supplements. Further studies are needed to assess browse fodder palatability and intake, and their effect on growth performance in ruminants.

키토산을 처리하여 건조 김을 제조하고 건조 김의 관능특성, 미생물 변화를 조사하였으며 2차 가공품인 김밥에 키토산김의 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 키토산을 처리하여 제조한 건조김과 무처리 건조김을 관능평가에 의해 비교하였을 때 색깔 조직감 및 맛에 있어서는 큰 차이가 없었으나 김에서 나는 갯비린내는 키토산 처리김에 있어 현저하게 감소되었다. 건조김의 총균수에 있어서는 무처리 건조김의 경우 약 37,000 cells/g이 검출되었으나, 30 cp 키토산을 0.1% 농도로 처리하여 건조김을 만들 경우 2,100 cells/g으로 균체수가 1/10 정도로 감소하였으며, 균체수의 감소경향은 처리 키토산 농도가 높을수록 효과적이었다. 이런 경향은 평균 분자량이 더 큰 90 cp 키토산을 처리하였을 경우에도 비슷하게 나왔다. 대장균군에 있어서는 무처리 건조김에서는 240 cells/g 정도가 검출되었으나, 30 cp 키토산을 0.1% 처리하였을 경우에는 대장균군이 검출되지 않았으며, 90 cp 키토산을 0.005%와 0.04%로 처리하여 건조김을 제조하였을 때 각각, 93 cells/g과 3.6 cells/g이 검출되었다. 키토산 처리 건조김으로 김밥을 제조하여 $20^{\circ}C$에서 총균수의 변화를 관찰하였을 때 30 cp, 90 cp 키토산으로 처리된 건조김으로 만든 김밥에 있어 모두 무처리 건조김으로 만든 김밥보다 총균수 증가가 현저하게 지연되었으며, 키토산처리 건조김의 이용은 김밥의 유통기간의 증대에 기여할 것으로 기대 된다.

본 연구는 녹차폴리페놀이 시스플라틴의 항암작용과 신장 독성에 미치는 영향을 유방암 세포(EMT6)와 암세포 이식마우스를 이용하여 in vitro와 in vivo 실험으로 관찰하였다. 배양한 EMT6 세포에서 녹차폴리페놀은 시스플라틴에 의한 세포 독성을 증가시켰다. 마우스에 EMT6 세포를 주사하여 유발된 종양의 크기가 시스플라틴군(CP)보다 시스플라틴+녹차폴리페놀군(CP+GTP)에서 유의하게 작았고, 종양조직 p53와 caspase-3 활성화가 시스플라틴군(CP)보다 시스플라틴+녹차폴리페놀군(CP+GTP)에서 유의하게 높았으며, 신장 GGT와 AP 활성은 시스플라틴군(CP)보다 시스플라틴+녹차폴리페놀군(CP+GTP)에서 유의하게 높았고, 신장 조직학적 소견에서 신세뇨관 확장과 괴사가 시스플라틴군(CP)보다 시스플라틴+녹차폴리페놀군(CP+GTP)에서 유의하게 낮았다. 이상의 결과 녹차폴리페놀은 EMT6 유방암 세포를 이용한 in vitro 및 in vivo 실험에서 시스플라틴의 항암작용을 증강시키면서 신장에 대한 독성 부작용은 감소시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 추측된다. 녹차폴리페놀의 시스플라틴 항암작용 증강과 신장 독성 억제 및 감소 효과는 시스플라틴에 의한 암 치료 시 화학요법제의 보조제로서 이용가치가 있는 것으로 생각되며, 항암화학요법제에 대한 보조제로의 개발을 위해서는 대규모 동물실험을 통한 효과 입증 및 부작용에 대한 실험과 임상연구가 뒷받침되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried out to evaluate the relationship between threonine (Thr) efficiency and Thr dehydrogenase (TDG) activity as an indicator of Thr oxidation on chicks fed with levels of diets (CP [17.5% and 21.5%] and Thr [3.8 and 4.7 g/100 g CP]; glycine [Gly][0.64% and 0.98%] and true digestible Thr [dThr] [0.45% and 0.60%]). Calculation of the Thr efficiency was based on N-balance data and an exponential N-utilization model, and TDG activity was determined as accumulation of aminoacetone and Gly during incubation of hepatic mitochondria. This study found that in the liver of chicks who received a diet containing up to 0.79% Thr (4.7 g Thr/100 g of CP) in the 17.5% CP diet, no significant (p>0.05) effect on TDG activity was observed. However, significantly (p = 0.014) increased TDG activity was observed with a diet containing 21.5% CP (4.7 g Thr/100 g of CP) and the efficiency of Thr utilization showed a significant (p = 0.001) decrease, indicating the end of the Thr limiting range. No significant (p>0.05) effect on the total TDG activity and accumulation of Gly was observed with addition of Gly to a diet containing 0.45% dThr. In addition, addition of Gly to a diet containing 0.60% dThr also did not result in a change in accumulation of Gly. Due to an increase in accumulation of aminoacetone, an elevated effect on total TDG activity was also observed. No significant (p>0.05) reduction in the efficiency of Thr utilization was observed after addition of Gly at the level of 0.45% dThr. However, significantly (p<0.001) reduced efficiency of Thr utilization was observed after addition of Gly at the level of 0.60% dThr. Collectively, we found that TDG was stimulated not only by addition of Thr and protein to the diet, but also by addition of Gly, and efficiency of Thr utilization was favorably affected by addition of Gly at the level near to the optimal Thr concentration. In addition, no metabolic requirement of Gly through the TDG pathway was observed with almost the same accumulation of Gly and a slight increase in TDG activity by addition of Gly. Thus, our findings suggest that determination of TDG activity and parameter of efficiency of Thr utilization may be useful for evaluation of dietary Thr level.

The effects of dietary lysine (Lys) at a fixed ratio to crude protein (CP) and essential amino acids (EAA) on early growth response of broilers were studied. Four diets were formulated to contain similar metabolizable energy (ME, 2,950 kcal/kg) but contained graded levels of incremental Lys (1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4%) while also increasing the dietary CP and EAA (methionine, methionine+ cystine, threonine and tryptophan) to maintain a constant ratio with Lys. Each diet was fed at random to 10 replicates of 6 chicks each throughout the experimental period (1-21 d). At the lowest concentration of Lys of 1.1% (19.04% CP), body weight gain (BWG) was lowest and feed conversion ratio (FCR) was poorest. The BWG increased and FCR decreased linearly as dietary Lys increased upto 1.3% (22.5% CP). Lowest feed consumption was observed in the dietary group that contained 1.1% Lys (19.04% CP) in the diet. Increasing the concentration of Lys to 1.2% (20.77% CP), significantly increased the feed consumption. The concentrations of protein, calcium, phosphorus and cholesterol in serum were not influenced by the variation in Lys contents in the diet. The humoral immune response as measured by antibody titre in response to SRBC inoculation was significantly lower in the diets containing 1.1% Lys compared to 1.4%. It is concluded that the Lys requirement of broilers is 1.3% (22.5% CP) during 0 to 21 days of age for eliciting optimum performance when a fixed ratio of Lys to CP (1:17.31) and essential AA is maintained (1:0.47 Met; 1:0.56 Thr; 1:0.17 Try).
