In this paper, we classified finite p-groups G such that $$C_G(x)/<x>$$ is cyclic for all non-central elements $x{\in}G$. This solved a problem proposed By Y. Berkovoch.

We can establish hypothesis that the grip strength of the CTDs gorup is weaker, SNAP is lower, and NCV is stower than the normal subjects. This paper is to drive out the characteristics of pinch strength and EMG for subjects G1 and G2 who are supposed to be in CTDs and the normal group. The results are as follows: (1) The pinch strength of the CTDs group is weaker than the normal group. It is remarkably decrease in the afternoon for G2 group. (2) There was no significant difference on SNAP among three groups. (3) There was significant difference on NCV among three groups.

It is known fact that the CTS patients have lower pinch strength than the normal people. And we can assume that the sensory nerve action potential(SNAP) and the nerve conduction velocity(NCV) of the CTS group are lower or slower than the normal subjects. This paper analysed the grip strength and performed EMG experiment for the group Norm, G1 and G2. The results are as follows: 1) CTS patients have lower pinch strength than normal people. 2) There was no significant difference on SNAP between the CTS group and the normal group. 3) There was significant difference on NCV among Norm, G1, and G2 group. Especially, significant level was higher in the evening after the continuous use of wrist.

In order to clarify the cadmium(Cd) contents of normal deer, tissue samples including kidney, liver, muscle, spleen, heart, lung, rumen, abomasum, intestine, skin and bone were collected from 18 deer which were slaughtered in Korea. All samples were burned to ashes and analyzed for Cd contents by atomic absorption spectrophotometric method. The mean Cd contents in \mu\textrm{g}$/g wet matter for 18 deer were liver 0.013, kidney 0.286, muscle 0.010, spleen 0.001, heart 0.007, lung 0.005, men 0.019, abomasum 0.016, intestine 0.018, skin 0.016 and bone 0.312, respectively. Two samples in kidney, one sample in muscle out of 18 deer showed higher Cd contents than normal limit value of 0.50\mu\textrm{g}$/g for liver and kidney, 0.10\mu\textrm{g}$/g for muscle. In addition, three deer also showed higher Cd contents in one body tissue than normal limit value which reported foreign countries.

The asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) was the first described mammalian lectin that mediates the specific binding and internalization of galactose/N-acetylgalactosamine-terminating glycoproteins by hepatic parenchymal cells. H1 and H2 are known as essential subunits of the functional ASGPR. There were close similarities in ASGPR H2 subunits between cultured cell line HepG2 and normal human liver cells including identical sequences at both termini. It was therefore expected that there may be some similarities between the subunits from normal liver cells and fetal liver cells. The two subunits of human fetal liver ASGPR. designated FL-H1 and FL-H2. were cloned from cDNA library by peR and the sequences were compared with the known HI and H2 sequences of HepG2, and the H1 sequence of nornal human liver cells. The results showed that FL-H1 was identical to H1 of HepG2. Whereas FL-H2 contains a 15-bp miniexon, but missing 57-bp at the near upstream from the membrane-spanning domain compared to H2 of HepG2 and normal human liver cells indicating that FL-H2 resulted from a differential splicing compared to HepG2 and normal liver cells.

A Cayley graph of a finite group G is called normal edge-transitive if its automorphism group has a subgroup which both normalized G and acts transitively on edges. In this paper, we consider Cayley graphs of finite cyclic groups, namely, finite circulant graphs. We characterize the normal edge-transitive circulant graphs and determine the normal edge-transitive circulant graphs of prime power order in terms of lexicographic products.

In this paper, we study the uniqueness of entire functions and prove the following result: Let f(z) and g(z) be two nonconstant entire functions, $n\;{\geq}\;7$ a positive integer, and let a be a nonzero finite complex number. If $f^{n}(z)(f(z)\;-\;1)f'(z)\;and\;g^{n}(z)(g(z)\;-\;1)g'(z)$ share a CM, then $f(z)\;{\equiv}\;g(z)$. The result improves the theorem due to ref. [3].

This study was performed to assess the lead and cadmium status of children residing in urban factory area and to see if there is a difference of lead and cadmium status between the group with normal iron status. The mean lead concentration of male hair was 9.55ppm which is significantly higher than 6.61 ppm that of female. The mean lead concentration of male urine sample was 0.04ppm, 10.3ppm and $48.14\mu{g/L}$, which is higher than 0.08ppm, 6.08ppm and $20.69\mu{g/L}$ of normal group, respectively. In a suboptimal group the proportion of children whose urinary lead is higher than normal$(35\mu{g/L)$was 87.3%, whereas 2.5% for a normal group. The mean cadmium concentration of male hair was 2.58ppm, which is higher than 2.48ppm that of a female. The mean cadmium concentration of erythrocyte, hair and urine was 0.25ppm, 2.65ppm and $38.83\mu{g/L}$, which is higher than 0.20ppm, 2.40ppm and $19.78\mu{g/L}$ of the normal group, respectively. The proportion of children whose urinary cadmium level is higher than the low limit of risk of cadmium intoxication$(40\mu{g/L)}$ was 21.4%, whereas 0% for a mormal group. Urinary lead and cadmium level showed significantly negative correlation with the RBC count, hematocrit, hemoglobin and serum ferritin, whereas they had significantly positive correlation with FEP/Hb(p<0.01). There was no correlation between the IQ and the level of lead and cadmium.

Purpose: To investigate the anticancer effects and underlying mechanisms of parthenolide on HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Materials and Methods: Cell viability was assessed by MTT assay and cell apoptosis through DAPI, TUNEL staining and Western blotting. Monodansylcadaverin(MDC) and AO staining were used to detect cell autophagy. Cell proliferation was assessed by Ki67 immunofluorescence staining. Results: Parthenolide induced growth inhibition in HepG2 cells. DAPI and TUNEL staining showed that parthenolide could increase the number of apoptotic nuclei, while reducing the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and elevating the expression of related proteins, like p53, Bax, cleaved caspase9 and cleaved caspase3. Parthenolide could induce autophagy in HepG2 cells and inhibited the expression of proliferation-related gene, Ki-67. Conclusions: Parthenolide can exert anti-cancer effects by inducing cell apoptosis, activating autophagy and inhibiting cell proliferation.
