  • Our previous study for developing seeds of Iksan 526 (I.526), an inbred line of resveratrol-producing transgenic rice line, showed that, in 20 days after heading (DAH) seeds, resveratrol was almost saturated and accumulation of piceid was highest though the expression of Arachis hypogaea resveratrol synthase 3 (AhRS3, GenBank DQ124938) was highest in 31 DAH seeds. In this study, it was investigated how the overexpression of AhRS3 affects phenylpropanoid pathway genes. p-Coumaroyl-CoA is derived from phenylpropanoid pathway and used as a substrate of AhRS3 reaction for resveratrol production. In 6, 13, 20, 31 and 41 (45 for Dongjin) DAH seeds of I526 and Dongjin, a wild type of I.526, respectively, the expression pattern of phenylpropanoid pathway genes, including phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL: LOC_Os02g41630.2, LOC_Os04g43760.1), cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H: LOC_Os05g25640.1), 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL: LOC_Os02g08100.1), cinnamoyl-CoA reductase (CCR: LOC_Os09g25150.1, LOC_Os08g34280.1), hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT: LOC_Os04g42250.2, LOC_Os02g39850.1) and cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD: LOC_Os02g09490.1), was examined using real time (RT)-PCR. Compared to developing seeds of Dongjin, RT-PCR results showed that the expression pattern of phenylpropanoid pathway genes was modified in developing seeds of I.526. In most genes, except for CAD, of I.526 developing seeds, the gene expression was highest in 20 DAH corresponding to biosynthesis of resveratrol and piceid, i.e. the expression of phenylpropanoid pathway genes was gradually increased by 20 DAH and decreased as seeds develop. Especially, in Dongjin, the highest expression of PALs and 4CL was in 6 DAH and their expression was gradually decreased as seeds develop. These genes expression data also exhibited that, in developing seeds of I.526, phenylpropanoid pathway genes were slightly or significantly (in some genes) upregulated compared to Dongjin. Therefore, the overexpression of AhRS3 changed the expression pattern of phenylpropanoid pathway genes in I.526 developing seeds and this modification for gene expression is closely related to biosynthesis of resveratrol and piceid.

  • Dries Van Noten, one of the Antwerp Six, focused on recreating traditional attire from each region to complex contemporary attire and has shown designs that interpreted ethnic image in contemporary perspective from his very first collection. He has positioned himself as a designer with creative expression of ethnic image through broad use of various patterns. This paper analyze the use of pattern in Dries Van Noten's designs by season and item, and reflects on the characteristics of pattern use and influence on fashion image. Total of 887 clothing items were collected from Noten's collections on the Internet. Through analysis of frequency and percentage and cross tab of expression techniques, types, patterns of each motif, and classifications of print combinations, it was shown that Noten has applied six aesthetic rules in the use of pattern design. Pattern played the most significant role in his design. It was possible to achieve the balance of ethnic image and modern image with the mix of flower and abstract motives. Overall pattern was mostly used for practical purpose: border patterns and spaced patterns played a vital role in rendering uniqueness. Noten exhibited unity and variation in combining prints. He expressed the beauty of Oriental style by inserting solid color blocks in between patterns and decorations along trim lines.

  • Pax6는 진화적으로 잘 보존된 homeobox유전자 그룹의 하나로 배 발생기 동안 시공간적으로 제한되어 발현된다. 이 실험은 말라리아 매개모기인 Anopheles stephemi에서의 Pax6 발현을 서로 다른 분자환경 조건에서 조사해 보기 위해 트랜스포존의 하나인 piggyBac과 Pax6에 결합하는 3xp3-EGFP를 사용한 생식세포 형질전환 방법을 사용하였다. 4개의 형질 전환 계열이 만들어졌고 형질전환율은 6.7%였으며, 도입 유전자는 여러 세대에 걸쳐 안정적으로 발현되었다. 4계열은 3가지의 공간적 발현 형태를 보였으며 이는 트랜스포존 삽입 위치에 따른 enhancing혹은 silencing의 결과로 예상된다. 이 결과를 통해 트랜스포존 piggyBac을 사용한 형질전환 시스템은 일반적인 보고자 유전자 발현 실험에서 다양한 형태의 공간적 발현 결과를 유도하는 매우 효율적인 방법으로 사용될 수 있으리라 예상된다

  • Beta-catenin is very important in early development including involvement in cell adhesion, cell signaling, and developmental fate specification. Cell-cell interaction is an important process during mammalian embryonic development. In preimplantation embryos, embryonic compaction is the process of increased cellular flattening and adhesion of junctional complexes and results in a polarized distribution. Beta-catenin is associated with embryonic compaction in mammals. Here, we examined the relationship between beta-catenin expression and compaction in porcine embryos derived from in vitro fertilization. First of all, we investigated beta-catenin expression in each embryonic developmental stage and also focused on expression pattern according to full, partial and non-compaction at morula stage. We used the immunocyto-chemical method in this research. To confirm compaction affects on the embryonic development, we compared between compaction and developmental rates to the blastocyst. The result showed that compaction and non-compaction rates were 14.6% and 63.8% at 4 days after IVF, respectively The developmental rates to the blastocyst and their total cell number were 50.9% vs 36.4% and 41.4$\pm$11.5 vs 26.8$\pm$12.7 in compaction and non-compaction groups. Although no difference was detected in the ratio of ICM to total cells between two groups, total cell number of the blastocysts in compaction group was superior to that of the blastocysts in non-compaction group (P<0.05). Expression of beta-catenin appeared in the boundary of membrane surface between blastomeres in 2- and 4-cell stage, and observed irregular pattern from 8-cell to blastocyst stage. We also investigated beta-catenin expression pattern according to the degree of compaction in the 3 groups; full, partial (>50%) and non-compaction. The expression signal in fully compacted embryos was stronger than those of partial and non-compacted embryos. Especially, beta-catenin expression appeared various patterns in morula stage suggesting the aberrant distribution of beta-catenin is affected by compaction patterns. Our results suggest that abnormal beta-catenin expression was affected by embryo quality and further development in porcine embryos in vitro.

  • We fused the promoter region of an H3.2 chicken histone gene, whose expression is dependent on the cell cycle, to the 5' coding region of an H3.3 chicken histone gene, which is expressed constitutively at a low level throughout the cell cycle. This fusion gene showed a cell cycle-regulated pattern of expression, but in a different manner. The mRNA level of the fusion gene increase during the S phase of the cell cycle by about 3.7-fold at 6 h and 2.7-fold at 12 h after the serum stimulation. The mRNA level of the intact H3.2 gene, however, increased by an average of 3.6-fold at 6 h and 8.7-fold at 12 h. This different expression pattern might be due to the differences in their 3' end region that is responsible for mRNA stability. The 3' end of the H3.2 mRNA contains a stem-loop structure, instead of a poly(A) tail present in the H3.3 mRNA. We also constructed a similar fusion gene using a H3.3 histone gene whose introns had been eliminated to rule out the possibility of involvement of the introns in cell cycle-regulated expression. The expression of this fusion gene was almost identical to the fusion gene made previously. These results indicate that the promoter region of the H3.2 gene is only partially responsible for its expression during the S phase of the cell cycle.

  • To date, there have been no reports on the cloning and characterization of a gene encoding SQS from Amaranthus, although there have been some reports on methods of extracting and purifying squalene from Amaranthus seeds. In this study, we monitored the expression pattern of the amaranth SQS gene in seeds at different developmental stages and in different tissues. The transcript expression pattern of the SQS gene was investigated using total RNA isolated from seeds at different stages of development. There were low levels of SQS transcripts at the early stage of seed development, and the levels remained low until the middle developmental stage. The expression of SQS increased rapidly to reach a peak at the mid-late developmental stage, and then declined dramatically. This pattern of expression was consistent with the results of RT-PCR analyses. All RNA samples generated a fragment of the expected size (183-bp). The amaranth SQS was expressed at low levels during the initial to middle stages of seed development, and its expression level increased at the mid-late development stage. Also The tissue-specific expression of amaranth SQS was determined by quantifying its mRNA in total RNA isolated from the leaves, petioles, stems, and roots of seedlings at the four- and six-leaf stages. Using qRT-PCR and RT-PCR analysis, we detected amaranth SQS transcripts in some of the tissues at the six-leaf stage, but in none of the tissues from plants at the four-leaf stage. SQS transcripts accumulated in almost equal amounts in stems and roots, while a lower level accumulated in leaves and petioles during seedling development at the four- to six-leaf stages. This study provides useful information about the molecular characterization of the SQS clone isolated from grain amaranth. A basic understanding of these characteristics will contribute to further studies on the amaranth SQS.

  • The purpose of this study is providing a usage of exterior, interior finish materials and color scheme for architectural design and the actual texture and pattern plans of finish materials from Le Corbuisier's work, Chapel Ronchamp. Chapel Ronchamp was analyzed to support the study for the interaction between texture usage and color expression. As a powerful design tool, texture, pattern and color of finish materials are very effective to alter the perception of the facade in the building. Most of architectural buildings, shapes and materials of elevations are monotonous and uniform. This study should be considered by details in the elevation of Chapel Ronchamp. As the part for developing and planning of architectural design, researching color plans and finish material is very important on real expression in the architectural space. As a result, this study will benefit in planning both the exterior and interior environments of color and finish material with texture and pattern.

  • Apoptosis, also known as cell suicide or programmed cell death, removes unwanted and genetically damaged cells from the body. Evasion of apoptosis is one of the major characteristic features of rapidly proliferating tumor cells. Chemopreventive agents inhibit or suppress tumor formation through apoptotic induction in target tissues. The aim of the present study was to investigate the pro-apoptotic potential of lupeol during 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene (DMBA) induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis. Topical application of 0.5% DMBA three times a week for 14 weeks in the buccal pouches of golden Syrian hamsters resulted in oral squamous cell carcinoma. The expression pattern of apoptotic markers was analyzed using immunohistochemistry (p53, Bcl-2, Bax) and ELISA reader (caspase 3 and 9). In the present study, 100% tumor formation with defects in apoptotic markerexpression pattern was noticed in hamsters treated with DMBA alone. Oral administration of lupeol at a dose of 50mg/kg bw completely prevented the formation oral tumors as well as decreased the expression p53 and Bcl-2, while increasing the expression of Bax and the activities of caspase 3 and 9. The present study thus indicated that lupeol might inhibit DMBA-induced oral tumor formation through its pro-apoptotic potential in golden Syrian hamsters.

  • In this paper the authors present their attempt io realize a motion pattern detector that finds specified sequence of image from input motion image. The detector is intended to be used for time-varying facial expression understanding. Needless to say, facial expression understanding by machine is crucial and enriches quality of human machine interaction. Among various facial expressions, like blinking, there must be such expressions that can not be recognized if input expression image is static. Still image of blinking can not be distinguished from sleeping. In this paper, the authors discuss implementation of their motion pattern detector and describe experiments using the detector. Experimental results confirm the feasibility of the idea behind the implemented detector.
