  • Rice stripe virus (RSV) disease is one of the major constraints in rice production, transmitted by the small brown planthopper (SBPH; Laodelphax striatellus). Upon RSV infection, plants develop typical symptoms, which include chlorosis and weakness of newly emerged leaves, white and yellow spots, stripe on leaves, and necrotic and wilting leaves, resulting in plant growth inhibition, oxidative damage that may culminate in programmed cell death (PCD) and plant death in severe epidemics. Although RSV-resistant quantitative trait loci (QTLs), Stv-a, Stv-b, and Stv-bi, were mapped using various resistant varieties, one RSV-resistant gene, OsSOT1, has been identified so far. In this study, we used the rice cultivar Zenith, known to carry Stv-b, to investigate novel RSV-genes through fine mapping. Therefore, we crossed Zenith (Donor parent, RSV resistant) with Ilpum (Recurrent parent, RSV susceptible) to fine-map using a BC2F2 population of 2100 plants. Chromosome segment introgression lines that were heterozygous at a different region were selected, two types of heterozygous lines showed an heterozygous genotype between Sid2 and Sid75 to Indel9 and RM6680. Interestingly, we identified qSTV11Z region harboring Stv-b, covering about 171-kb region between the InDel markers Sid75 and Indel8. The localization of qSTV11Z provides useful information that could be used for marker-assisted selection and determination of genetic resources in rice breeding.

  • Purpose: Sinus tarsi syndrome (STS) is caused by various pathologies. However, the exact etiology of STS remains controversial. This study evaluated the imaging and arthroscopic findings of patients who underwent surgical treatment after conservative treatment for STS failed. Materials and Methods: Between December 2014 and August 2018, 20 patients (21 cases) who underwent surgical treatment for STS were included in the study. The clinical results were analyzed using the visual analog scale (VAS) and the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot functional scale. The radiographic results were analyzed using Meary's angle, calcaneal pitch angle, and hindfoot alignment angle. The pathologic conditions of sinus tarsi were confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and subtalar arthroscopy. Synovitis, bone edema, and accessory anterolateral talar facet (AALTF) were evaluated on MRI. Synovial thickening, cartilage damage, interosseous talocalcaneal ligament (ITCL) and cervical ligament rupture, soft tissue impingement, AALTF, and accessory talar facet impingement (ATFI) were evaluated by subtalar arthroscopy. Results: The mean duration of symptoms was 28.7 months (4~120). All patients showed significant improvement in the VAS and AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scale. Significant improvements in hindfoot alignment angle and Meary's angle postoperatively were noted in patients who underwent medial displacement calcaneal osteotomy. MRI confirmed synovitis in all patients, AALTF in 19 cases (90.5%), and ATFI with bone edema in seven cases (33.3%). In subtalar arthroscopy, pathologic conditions were observed in the following order: synovitis in 21 cases (100%), AALTF in 20 cases (95.2%), ITCL partial rupture in nine cases (42.9%), and soft tissue impingement in seven cases (33.3%). All cases had two or more pathological conditions, and 15 (71.4%) had three or more. Conclusion: In cases of STS that do not respond to conservative treatment, a comprehensive examination of the lesions of the tarsal sinus and lesions around the subtalar joint is essential.

  • Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) are well-known examples of the begomovirus and orthotospovirus genera, respectively. These viruses cause significant economic damage to tomato crops worldwide. Weeds play an important role in the ongoing presence and spread of several plant viruses, such as TYLCV and TSWV, and are recognized as reservoirs for these infections. This work applies a comprehensive approach, encompassing field surveys and molecular techniques, to acquire an in-depth understanding of the interactions between viruses and their weed hosts. A total of 60 tomato samples exhibiting typical symptoms of TYLCV and TSWV were collected from a tomato greenhouse farm in Nonsan, South Korea. In addition, 130 samples of 16 different weed species in the immediate surroundings of the greenhouse were collected for viral detection. PCR and reverse transcription-PCR methodologies and specific primers for TYLCV and TSWV were used, which showed that 15 tomato samples were coinfected by both viruses. Interestingly, both viruses were also detected in perennial weeds, such as Rumex crispus, which highlights their function as viral reservoirs. Our study provides significant insights into the co-occurrence of TYLCV and TSWV in weed reservoirs, and their subsequent transmission under tomato greenhouse conditions. This project builds long-term strategies for integrated pest management to prevent and manage simultaneous virus outbreaks, known as twindemics, in agricultural systems.

  • In this review, we will explore the intricate roles of cytokines and vascular endothelial growth factors in autoimmune diseases (ADs), with a particular focus on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS). AD is characterized by self-destructive immune responses due to auto-reactive T lymphocytes and Abs. Among various types of ADs, RA and MS possess inflammation as a central role but in different sites of the patients. Other common aspects among these two ADs are their chronicity and relapsing-remitting symptoms requiring continuous management. First factor inducing these ADs are cytokines, such as IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-17, which play significant roles in the pathogenesis by contributing to inflammation, immune cell activation, and tissue damage. Secondly, vascular endothelial growth factors, including VEGF and angiopoietins, are crucial in promoting angiogenesis and inflammation in these two ADs. Finally, placental growth factor (PlGF), an emerging factor with bi-directional roles in angiogenesis and T cell differentiation, as we introduce as an "angio-lymphokine" is another key factor in ADs. Thus, while angiogenesis recruits more inflammatory cells into the peripheral sites, cytokines secreted by effector cells play critical roles in the pathogenesis of ADs. Various therapeutic interventions targeting these soluble molecules have shown promise in managing autoimmune pathogenic conditions. However, delicate interplay between cytokines, angiogenic factors, and PlGF has more to be studied when considering their complementary role in actual pathogenic conditions. Understanding the complex interactions among these factors provides valuable insights for the development of innovative therapies for RA and MS, offering hope for improved patient outcomes.

  • 동물모형은 정신장애의 연구와 치료에 유용한 도구를 제공할 수 있다. 정신장애의 동물모형으로서의 적합성에 대한 평가 기준은 첫째, 유도된 상태의 유사성, 둘째, 행동상의 유사성, 셋째, 공통된 근저의 신경생물학적 기전, 넷째, 임상적으로 효과적인 치료 기술에 의한 역전 등 4가지이다. 저자는 정신분열병의 연구에 유용한 도구로 사용할 수 있는 실험적 모델을 간략히 소개하였다. 정신분열병의 실험적 모델로서는 L-dopa 모델, phenylethylamine 모델, hallucinogen 모델, amphetamine 모델, phencyclidine(이하 PCP) 모델, NE 보상계병소 모델, 망상계자극 모델, 사회격리 모델, 조건화된 회피반응, catalepsy 시험, paw 시험, 자기자극 paradigm, latent inhibition paradigm, blocking paradigm, 경악반사의 prepulse inhibition, 설치류 상호작용, 원숭이의 사회적 행위, 해마손상, 선택적 breeding을 사용한 모델, 고기압 모델, 각성 모델, 감각운동 gating 모델 등이 제시되고 있다. 저자는 이중에서 특히 정신분열병의 실험적 모델로서 face validity, predictive validity, construct validity가 높은 몇 가지 방법에 대해서 중점적으로 설명하였다. 임상경험 및 동물실험에서 PCP 및 ketamine 등 PCP 유사물질은 양성증상 뿐만아니라 음성증상, 파과형, 인지장애군에 좀 더 가까운 비망상형의 정신분열병에도 적용시키기가 좋은 것으로 알려졌다. 임신이나 출생 시 합병증에 의한 해마병소화, 내재적 신경독성에 의한 NE 보상계 병소, 스테로이드 증가에 의한 해마변화 등에 의해서 정신분열병이 유도될 수 있음은 해마병소화 모델이 정신분열병의 실험적 모델로서의 첫번째 기준을 충족시킴을 입증한다. 해마 병소화 후에 정신분열병 환자에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 주의집중력 장애, 공간 및 문맥 정보의 이해결핍, 기억구성, 인식기억, 고전적 조건화, 일반화, 복합적 학습, 상동적 행동, 미신적 행동, 과잉각성, 소멸과 습관형성, 피부전도 실험 등의 이상이 관찰됨은 정신분열병의 실험적 모델로서 두 번째의 기준에 합당한 것이다. 사후 부검한 뇌조직 및 여러 신경영상화 연구에서 해마의 구조적 이상 및 신경전달물질의 수용체 변화가 보고됨은 세 번째 조건을 만족시키는 것이며, 정신분열병의 여러 치료약물을 투여함으로써 상기 변화가 반전됨은 해마병소화 모델이 정신분열병의 실험적 모델로서 타당도가 높음을 시사한다. 정신분열병의 양성증상, 음성증상, 인지장애를 모두 포괄적으로 반영할 수 있는 실험적 모델로서 ketamine 모델과 해마병소화 모델 등이 보다 유용한 도구로 제시될 수 있다. 그러나 현재까지 어떠한 정신분열병의 모형도 정신분열병 전체를 대표할 수 있는 것은 없다. 따라서 동물모형을 사용한 연구의 결과는 매우 조심스럽게 해석되어야 한다. 또한 동물모형을 발전시키고 타당화 시키려는 노력은 인간에서의 현상을 신빙성있게 측정하는 방법을 규명하는 과정과 공동으로 이루어져야 한다.

  • Background & Objectives: Frameless fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy(FFSRT) is a modification of stereotactic radiosurgery(SRS) with radiobiologic advantage of fractionation without losing mechanical accuracy of SRS. Local recurrence of head and neck cancer at or near skull base benefit from reirradiation. Main barrier to successful palliation is dose limitation secondary to normal tissue tolerance. We try to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FFSRT as a new modality of reirradaton in these challenging patients. Materials & Methods: Seven patients with recurrent head & neck cancer involving at or near skull base received FFSRT from September 1995 to November 1997. Six patients with nasopharyngeal cancer had received induction chemotherapy and curative radiation therapy. One patient with maxillary sinus cancer had received total maxillectomy and postoperative radiation therapy as a initial treatment. Follow-up ranged from 11 to 32 months with median of 24 months. Three of 7 patients received hyperfractionated radiation therapy(1.1-1.2Gy/fraction, bid, total 19.8-24Gy) just before FFSRT. All patients received FFSRT(3-5Gy/fraction, total 15-30Gy/5-10fractions). Chemotherapy(cis-platin $100mg/m^2$) were given concurrently with FFSRT in four patients. Second course of FFSRT were given in 4 patients with progression or recurrence after initial FFSRT. Because IF(irregularity factor; ratio of surface area of target to the surface area of sphere with same volume as a target) is too big to use conventional stereotactic RT using multiple arc method for protection of radiation damage to critical normal tissue, all patients received FFSRT with conformal method using irregular static ports. Results: Five of 7 patients showed complete remission in follow-up CT &/or MRI. Three of these five patients who developed marginal, in-field, and out-field recurrences, respectively. Another one of complete responders has been dead of G-I bleeding without evidence of local recurrence. One partial responder who showed progressive disease 15 months after initial FFSRT has received additional FFSRT, and then he is well-being with symptomatic improvement. One minmal responder who showed progression of locoregional disease 9 months after $1^{st}$ FFSRT has received 2nd FFSRT, and then he is alive with stable disease. Five of 7 case had showed direct invasion to skull base and had complaint headache and various symptoms of cranial nerve involvement. Four of these five case showed improvement of neurologic symptoms after FFSRT. No significant neurologic complicaltion related to FFSRT was observed during follow-up periods. Tumor volumes were ranged from 3.9 to 50.7 cc and surface area ranged from 16.1 to $114.9cm^2$. IF ranged from 1.21 to 1.74. The average ratio of volume of prescription isodose shell to target volume was 1.02 that indicated the improvement of target coverage and dose distribution with FFSRT with conformal method compared to target coverage with FFSRT with multiple arc method. Conclusion: Our initial experience suggests that FFSRT with conformal method was relatively effective and safe modality in the treatment of recurrent head and neck cancer involving at or near skull base. Treatment benefit included good palliation of symptoms and reasonable radiographic response. However, more experience and additional follow-up are needed to better assess its ultimate role in treating these challenging patients.

  • Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS) in childhood is unique and different n-om that in adulthood in several aspects, including pathophysiology, clinical features, diagnostic criteria, complications, management, and prognosis. Characteristic features of childhood OSAS in comparison with the adult form are the variety of severe complications such as developmental delay, more prominent behavioral and cognitive impairments, vivid cardiovascular symptoms, and increased death risk, warranting a special attention to the possible diagnosis of OSAS in children who snore. However, the childhood OSAS is often neglected and unrecognized. We, therefore, report a case of very severe OSAS in a 5-year-old boy who was sucessfully treated with continuous positive airway pressure(CPAP) treatment. Interestingly, the patient was comor-bid with the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Prior to the initial visit to us, adenotonsillectomy had been done at the age of 4 with no significant improvement of apneic symptoms and heavy snoring. On the initial diagnostic procedures, marked degree of snoring was audible even in the daytime wake state and the patient was observed to be very hyperactive. Increased pulmonary vascularity with borderline cardiomegaly was noted on chest X-ray. The baseline polysomnography revealed that the patient was very sleep-apneic and snored very heavily, with the respiratory disturbance index(RDI) of 46.9 per hour of sleep, the mean SaO2 of 78.8%, and the lowest SaO2 of 40.0%(the lowest detectable oxygen level by the applied oxymeter). The second night polysomnography was done for CPAP titration and the optimal pressure turned out to be $8.0\;cmH_2O$. The applied CPAP treatment was well tolerated by the patient and was found to be very effective in alleviating heavy snoring and severe repetitive sleep apneas. After 18 months of the CPAP treatment, the patient was followed up with nocturnal polysomnography(baseline and CPAP nights) and clinical examination. Sleep apneas were still present without CPAP on the baseline night. However, the severity of OSAS was significantly decreased(RDI of 15.7, mean SaO2 of 96.2%, and the lowest SaO2 of 83.0%), compared to the initial polysomnographic findings before initiation of long-term CPAP treatment. Wechsler intelligence tests done before and after the CPAP treatment were compared with each other and surprising improvement of intelligence(total 9 points, performance 16 points) was noted. Clinically he was found to be markedly improved in his attention deficit hyperactive behavior after CPAP treatment, but with minimal change of TOVA(test of variables of attention) scores except conversion of reaction time score into normal range. On the chest X-ray taken after 18 months of CPAP application, the initial cardiopulmonary abnormalities were not found at all. We found that the CPAP treatment in a young child is very effective, safe, and well-tolerated and also improves the co-morbid attention deficit hyperactive symptoms. Overall, the growth and development of the child has been facilitated with the long-term use of CPAP. Cardiovascular complications induced by OSAS have been also normalized with CPAP treatment. We suggest that early diagnosis and active treatment intervention of OSAS in children are crucial in preventing and ameliorating possible serious complications caused by repetitive sleep apneas and consequent hypoxic damage during sleep.

  • 삼나물 에탄올 추출물이 streptozotocin으로 유발한 쥐의 당뇨증상과 산화적 스트레스에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 실험군은 정상군(NC), 당뇨군(DM), 당뇨유발 후 식이에 삼나물 에탄올 추출물을 0.3%를 첨가한 식이군(SA), 당뇨유발 후 식이에 삼나물 에탄올 추출물을 0.6% 첨가한 식이군(SB)으로 구분하여 5주간 사육하였다. SA군과 SB군은 NC군에는 미치지 못하였으나, 당뇨로 인해 초래되는 병리적 증상인 체중 감소, 식이섭취량 및 음용수 섭취량의 증가, 식이효율저하, 간장 및 신장 무게의 증가 현상을 개선하는 효과가 있었다. 실험식이로 5주간 사육한 당뇨쥐의 혈당은 DM군에 비하여 $17.9{\sim}27.2%$를 감소시켰으며 fructosamine의 함량은 $25.6{\sim}32.6%$를 감소시켰다. 또한, 당뇨로 인하여 증가된 alanine aminotransferase(ALT)와 aspartate aminotransferase(AST) 활성을 각각 25.6 및 30.3% 감소시켰다. SA 및 SB군은 DM군에 비하여 혈청 중성지질은 $42.37{\sim}55.51%$ 감소, total cholesterol 함량은 $26.85{\sim}30.44%$ 감소, HDL-cholesterol 함량은 $13.01{\sim}17.35%$ 증가, LDL-cholesterol 함량은 $37.29{\sim}39.11%$가 감소하였다. SA 및 SB군의 xanthine oxidoreductase의 total type, O type 및 O/T(%)은 DM군에 비하여 유의적으로 감소하였으며 간 조직 glutathione함량은 유의적으로 증가 lipid peroxide 함량은 유의적으로 감소시켰다. Superoxide dismutase와 glutathione S-transferase 활성도 DM군에 비하여 각각 $56.84{\sim}94.90%$$57.14{\sim}68.92%$를 증가시켰다. 이상의 실험 결과 삼나물 에탄을 추출물은 STZ로 유도한 당뇨쥐의 고혈당을 완화시킴과 동시에 ROS 생성계를 억제하고 ROS 소거계를 활성화시킴으로써 당뇨를 경감시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.
