  • N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU), which is a toxin and a carcinogen, as well as a mutagen, has a variety of effects on mice. ENU induces point mutation in male germ cell. Number of mutant animals are developed with ENU treatment. However, potentiality ot ENU as a carcinogen is not fully understood, even though, mutagenicity of ENU is broadly studied, In the present study, the gene expression profiling and histopathological investigation of ENU treated mouse's liver and brain were investigated. Also, the expression patterns of cancer related genes in ENU-treated mouse were analyzed.

  • CHO 세포를 재료로 ENU와 MNU를 여러농도로 처리한후 시간 경과에 따른 염색체 이상율을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. (1) ENU와 MNU에 의한 염색체 이상 빈도는 처리 후 시간의 경과와 농도에 따라 상이한 현상을 나타냈다. (2) ENU 처리군에서는 염색체 이상형은 염색분체 절단이 대부분이었으나 고농도군 ($10^-3 M$)에서는 처리 후 24시간에 염색분체 교환이 염색분체 절단을 능가하였다. (3) MNU 처리군에서는 염색체 이상형은 염색분체 절단이 대부분이었으나 $10^-4$ M 이상에서는 처리후 12시간부터 염색분체 교환이 염색분체 절단을 능가하였다.

  • N-ethyl-N-nitrosoures (ENU) is effective in inducing hypermorphic mutation as well as hypomorphic and antimorphic mutations. Therefore, this mutagen is used to the production of mutant in the mice. In order to perform an effective ENU mutagenesis using BALB/cAnN mice, determination of optimal dosage and dosage regimen of ENU is necessary. And this study tried to develop a suitable screening method and searched for novel and various mutants as model animals in phenotypedriven ENU mutagenesis. We have carried out dosage regimen for mutagenizing dose of 200 mg/kg ENU in the BALB/c mice. Total screened mice were 30,133. As the results of Esaki and Cho's Phenotype Screening, we got 2,516 phenotypic and behavior abnormalities in $G_1,\;G_2\;and\;G_3$ mice. One hundred thirty five $G_1$ phenodeviants were tested for inheritance and 16 dominant mutants were discovered. Forty two recessive mutants were also found in tested 201 micropedigrees. Early-onset mutant mice included the dysmorphology of face, eye, tail, limb, skin, and foot and abnormal behavior like circling, swimming, head tossing, stiff-walking, high cholesterol level, and tremor etc. In this study we could effectively screen $G_3$ recessive mutants. The frequent and concise early-onset screening before weaning will be available for ENU mutagenesis.

  • ENU(ethylnitrosourea) mutagenesis has been carrying out since 1999 in Korea Institute of Toxicology (KIT), Korea Research Institute Chemical of Technology (KRlCT). We have chosen BALB/c and C57BL/6 and screened for dominant and recessive mutants. Four hundred and twenty one males(GO) have been injected with ENU, 150, 200, 250 and 300 mg/kg body weight, twice, one week apart.(omitted)

  • Biological response modifiers (BRMs) can alter interactions between the immune system and cancer cells to boost, direct, or restore the body's ability to fight disease. Mice with ethylnitrosourea- (ENU) induced leukemia were here used to monitor the therapeutic efficacy of lipopolysaccaride (LPS), Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) and sheep erythrocytes (SRBC). Flow cytometry based CD34+ positivity analysis, clonogenicity, proliferation and ultrastructure studies using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of stem cells in ENU induced animals with and without BRMs treatment were performed. BRMs improved the stem-stromal relationship structurally and functionally and might have potential for use as an adjunct in human stem cell therapy.

  • The industrialized country is progressing the front picture of the High Speed ENU and research for the space design. especially, A Streamline nose design for a technology and competitive power confirmed report is important. This research set up the designing process for a streamline nose model development through scientific assessment. We reflected the needs of the user and presented also a human engineering the space design. This research presented the key point to establish an identity confirmed of a Korea High Speed ENU.
