To idenifty effect of Bojungbangam-tang kakambang on Cisplatin-Induced G2/M Phase Arrest in Human Renal Proximal Tubular HK-2 Cells. Cytotoxicity of cisplatin was detected in HK-2 cells and the value of IC50 is about $25\;{\mu}M$. The treatment of cisplatin to HK-2 showed the G2/M phase cell cycle arrest. The ethanol extract of Bojungbangam-tang kakambang (EBTKB), a new herbal prescription composed of ten crude herbs, inhibited cisplatin-induced G2/M phase arrest in HK-2 cells. EBTKB increased G0/G1 peak in cisplatin-treated HK-2 cells. p53, p21 and p27 expression were increased in cisplatin-treated HK-2 cells. Inhibitory effect of EBTKB on cisplatin-induced G2/M phase arrest was accomplished through inhibition of p53, p21 and p27 expression. Also, reduced CDK2 and cyclin A expression by cisplatin were increased by EBTKB, but cyclin E was not changed. Reduction of ERK activation and increment of p38 activation by cisplatin were increased ERK activation and decreased p38 activation by EBTKB. Cisplatin had no effect on JNK activation, but EBTKB increased JNK activation. These results can suggest that EBTKB inhibits cisplatin-induced G2/M phase arrest in HK-2 cell through reduction of p53-dependent p21 and p27 protein, ERK activation and p38 inactivation.

Retinoic acid (RA) and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) induce the differentiation of the multipotent embryonic carcinoma cell line, F9 cells, into parietal endoderm like cell. The F9 cells are highly proliferative doubling approximately 12 hourse. S Phase is predominant, lasting 10 hours and G2/M phase occupies most of the remaining cycle (2 hours) and G1 phase is nearly non-existent. In this study, we showed the effect of RA and dbcAMPon the cell cycle associated molecules (especially around G1 phase) during F9 cell differentiation. Differentiation of F9 cells was induced by the combined addition of RA ($10^{-7}M$) and dbcAMP (0.5mM), and cells were harvested daily up to 4 days. Flow cytometric analysis showed the prolongation of G1 phase around 30 hours after induction. Western blot analysis revealed that the amount of cyclin D1 and cdk2 were increased at day 4. However, histone H1 kinase activity of cdk2 was decreased. These data strongly suggest that RA and dbcAMP induce the growth arrest of F9 cells at G1 phase by decreasing the activity of cdk2, although they have increased the protein contents of cyclin D1 and cdk2. The reason for the discrepancy between the H1 kinase activity and protein contents are not clear yet.

The aim of the present study was to assess whether exposure to the combination of an extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF; 60 Hz, 1 mT or 2 mT) with a stress factor, such as ionizing radiation (IR) or $H_2O_2$, results in genomic instability in non-tumorigenic human lung epithelial L132 cells. To this end, the percentages of G2/M-arrested cells and aneuploid cells were examined. Exposure to 0.5 Gy IR or 0.05 mM $H_2O_2$ for 9 h resulted in the highest levels of aneuploidy; however, no cells were observed in the subG1 phase, which indicated the absence of apoptotic cell death. Exposure to an ELF-MF alone (1 mT or 2 mT) did not affect the percentages of G2/M-arrested cells, aneuploid cells, or the populations of cells in the subG1 phase. Moreover, when cells were exposed to a 1 mT or 2 mT ELF-MF in combination with IR (0.5 Gy) or $H_2O_2$ (0.05 mM), the ELF-MF did not further increase the percentages of G2/M-arrested cells or aneuploid cells. These results suggest that ELF-MFs alone do not induce either G2/M arrest or aneuploidy, even when administered in combination with different stressors.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the anti-proliferative mechanism by Trichosanthes kirilowii (TCK) in MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cell. In this study, we used human breast cancer cell line, Michigan cancer foundation-7 cells (MCF-7 cells). They were co-incubated with 30~200 ${\mu}g$/ml TCK for 48 hours, and cell viability was measured by Water-soluble tetrazolium salt-1 (WST-1) assay. After MCF-7 cells were exposed to 60 ${\mu}g$/ml of TCK for 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours, We performed flow analysis cytometry sorting(FACS) and western blot analysis. We investigated the effect of dose-dependent cell growth inhibition by TCK, which could be proved by WST-1 assay. Also, flow cytometry analysis showed that TCK increased percentage of subG1 phase and G2/M phase cell cycle. In addition, TCK induced apoptosis through the expression of caspase-9, -3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(PARP) activation. Moreover, we showed that ATM-dependent G2/M phase arrest by DNA damage and phosphorylation of chk2, cdc25C, cdc2(Tyr15). Taken together, these results suggest that by G2/M phase arrest through DNA damage and inducing of apoptosis through intrinsic pathway, TCK may have potential tumor suppressor in breast cancer.

Objectives : The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of WS on HepG2 cell cycle and expression of related genes. Methods : The MTT assay, Cell counting analysis, $[^3H]-Thymidine$ Incorporation Assay, Flow cytometric analysis, Quantitative RT-PCR were studied. Results : WS inhibited HepG2 cell proliferation in low concentration$(1-10\;{\mu]g/ml)$ which did not cause direct cytotoxicity, with dose-dependant manner. WS in-hibited DNA synthesis as well. Flow cytometric analysis on the HepG2 cell showed G2/M phase arrest. Conclusion : These results suggest that WS inhibits HepG2 cell proliferation not by the gene regulation but by G2/M phase arrest in the cell cycle. Thus further studies on the effect of WS in G2/M phase regulation are thought to be needed.

The aim of present study was to investigate the effects of kaempferol on cellular proliferation and cell cycle arrest and explore the mechanism for these effects in human breast carcinoma MDA-MB-453 cells. Cells were treated with kaempferol at various concentrations (ranging from 1 to $200\;{\mu}M$) for 24 and 48 hrs. Kaempferol significantly inhibited cancer cell growth in cells exposed to 50 and $10\;{\mu}M$ of kaempferol and incubated for 24 and 48 hrs, respectively. Exposure to kaempferol resulted in cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. Of the G2/M-phase related proteins, kaempferol down-regulated CDK1 and cyclin A and B in cells exposed to kaempferol. In addition, small DNA fragments at the sub-G0 phase were increased by up to 23.12 and 31.90% at 10 and $50\;{\mu}M$ incubated for 24 and 48 hrs, respectively. The kaempferol-induced apoptosis was associated with the up-regulation of p53. In addition, the phosphorylation of p53 at the Ser-15 residue was observed with kaempferol. Kaempferol inhibits cell proliferation by disrupting the cell cycle, which is strongly associated with the induction of arrest at G2/M phase and may induce apoptosis via p53 phosphorylation in human breast carcinoma MDA-MB-453 cells.

목적 : SCK 선암 세포주에서 방사선 조사에 의해 일어나는 apoptosis와 세포 주기와의 연관성을 규명하고자하였다. 대상 및 방법 : SCK 선암 세포주를 apoptosis의 통상적인 정성 분석 방법인 agarose gel electrophoresis 방법을 이용하여 방사선 조사량과 배지 pH 환경과의 연구에서 2-l2Gy의 방사선 조사량과 pH 7.5 및 5.6의 배양 배자 조건하에서 다양한 배양 시간의 경과에 따른 DNA fragmentation의 지표인 laddering을 관찰하였다. 실험 조작으로 apoptosis가 유발된 세포군을 정량적으로 분석하고 세포 주기 분석을 위해 FACScan을 이용하였다. 결과 : apoptosis가 왕성히 발현되었던 pH 7.5 배지에서 배양하였던 세포에서는 방사선 조사직후부터 $G_2M$ phase의 세포들의 분획이 증가하기 시작하여 12시간째 약 $70\%$까지의 최고치를 보인 후 36시간째에 방사선을 조사하지 않았던 상태의 분획으로 정상화되었다. 하지만 pH 6.6 배지에서 배양하였던 세포에서의 $G_2/M$ phase의 세포들의 분획의 증가는 pH 7.5 배지에서 배양하였던 세포들에 비해 비교적 천천히 일어나고 그 최고치도 24시간째에 약 $45\%$로 관찰되었다. 특이한 것은 $G_2/M$ phase의 세포들의 분획이 그 이후 감소되는 정도가 pH 7.5 배지에서 배양하였던 세포들에 비해 미약하여 48시간 배양 이후에도 약 $30-35\%$의 세포는 $G_2/M$ Phase의 세포들의 분획으로 관찰되었다. 결론 : 연구자들은 이러한 현상이 세포들이 GJM phase에서 많은 양의 세포들이 집적되어 세포주기를 순환하지 못하는 $G_2M$ arrest 현상으로 이해하였다. 세포 내외의 산성환경 상태에서 방사선을 조사 받은 SCK 종양세포는 $G_2/M$ arrest 상태가 지속되며 이는 post-mitotic apoptosis를 억제한다고 추론하였다.

CYP1A1 is known to be inducible by xenobiotic compouds such as polyciclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) and 2,3,7,8-tetrachloro-dibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD). These chemicals have been identified worldwide and can have a significant impact on the human health and well being of human and wildlife. Given these issues, the detection and quantification of these chemicals in biological, environmental and food samples is important. First, we investigated the effect of on CYP1A1 promoter activity, 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase(EROD) activity and CYP1A1 mRNA expression induced by benzo(k)fluoranthene(B(k)F) in MCF-7 cells. We found that B(k)F significantly up-regulates the level of CYP1A1 prompter activity, EROD and CYP1A1 mRNA. When cells were treated with genistein, it was not changed that EROD and CYP1A1 mRNA, compared to that of control. However, genistein inhibited the B(k)F-induced CYP1A1 promoter activity and mRNA level at high concentration. Furthermore, in this study, effects of HDAC(histone deacetvlase) inhibitors on human prostate cancer cells proliferation were examined. HC-toxin, SAHA and TSA inhibited cell proliferation in PC3 cells. A novel HDAC inhibitor, IN2001 also suppressed the growth of PC3 cells. And IN2001 and SAHA increased S phase and G2/M phase at 12 hrs treatment but cells were arrested G0/G1 phase at 45 hrs treatment. The HC-toxin treatment for 24 hrs and 48 hrs increased G0/G1 at low concentration ($0.1\mu\textrm{m}$) but increased G2/M at more than concentration of $1\mu\textrm{m}$. TSA increased G2/M phase. These findings height the possbility of developing HDAC inhibitors as potential anticancer therapeutic agents for the treatment of prostate cancer.

아크 용해법으로 제작한 $ZrV_{0.1}Mn_{0.7}Ni_{1.2}$ 합금(bulk 합금) 잉고트는 $ZrV_{0.2}Mn_{0.98}Ni_{1.04}$의 조성식을 가지는 fcc 구조의 C15형 Laves상이 주류를 이루는 matrix와 $ZrV_{0.01}Mn_{0.13}Ni_{1.2}$의 조성으로 $Z_9Ni_{11}$의 금속간 화합물 구조를 가지는 2nd phase가 균일하게 분포된 2개의 상으로 구성되어 있었다. $ZrV_{0.1}Mn_{0.7}Ni_{1.2}$ 합금의 방전 특성에 이 두 가지 상들이 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해서 matrix와 2'nd phase합금을 분리 제작하였고, 이들 전극에 대한 전기 화학적인 충방천 특성들을 조사하였다. 그 결과 방전용량은 2nd phase가 가장 낮은 $160mAh/g$, 그 다음으로 matrix가 200mAh/g으로 bulk의 250mAh/g보다 낮았다. Matrix조성의 합금은 bulk합금과 거의 유사한 활성화, 고율 방전율, 자기방전 특성을 가졌고, 또한 활성화 후에 충방전에 따른 용량감소의 경향이 현저히 관찰되었다. 그러나 2nd phase 조성의 합금은 이들과는 확연한 차이를 보였다. 즉 활성화되기 어렵지만 활성화된 후에 용량감소의 경향은 거의 없었고 또한 자기방전 특성도 우수하였다.
