  • Despite advances in surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the survival of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma has not significantly improved over the past several decades. Gene therapy is currently under investigation and shows us new possibility of cancer curing method. This experiment was undergone to find out the cell growth inhibition effect and evidence of apoptosis by HCCS-1(human cervical cancer suppressor-1), one of the candidates of tumor suppressor gene, transducted to human oral cancer cell line. To determine the efficiency of the adenovirus as a gene delivery vector cell line was transducted with LacZ gene and analysed with X-gal staining. Northern blot was performed to confirm the transfection with HSCC-1 gene and cell viability was assessed by cell cytotoxicity assay using cell count kit(CCK). To show the evidence of apoptosis, DNA fragmentation assay and flow cytometry(FACS) were performed. We had successfully construct the recombinant HSCC-1 adenovirus(Ad5CMV-HCCS-1), and importation efficiency was 20% at 2 MOI(multiplicity of infection), 80% at 20 MOI. Northern blot analysis showed that a single 0.6kb mRNA transcript was expressed in Ad5CMV-HCCS-1 transducted cell lines. As a result of CCK, when comparing to control subjects, transducted group showed 50% growth inhibition. In DNA fragmentation assay, according to increasing of MOI, DNA volume was diminished. In FACS analysis, DNA distribution showed fragmentation. This results imply that HCCS-1gene has growth inhibition effect in human oral cancer cell lines through apoptosis induction.

  • Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) has been a major viral pathogen causing significant losses of cereal crops including oats worldwide. It spreads naturally through aphids, and a rapid, specific, and reliable diagnostic method is imperative for disease monitoring and management. Here, we established a rapid and reliable method for isothermal reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) combined with a lateral flow strips (LFS) assay for the detection of BYDV-infected oat samples based on the conserved sequences of the BYDV coat protein gene. Specific primers and a probe for RT-RPA reacted and optimally incubated at 42℃ for 10 min, and the end-labeled amplification products were visualized on LFS within 10 min. The RT-RPA-LFS assay showed no cross-reactivity with other major cereal viruses, including barley mild mosaic virus, barley yellow mosaic virus, and rice black streaked dwarf virus, indicating high specificity of the assay. The sensitivity of the RT-RPA-LFS assay was similar to that of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and it was successfully validated to detect BYDV in oat samples from six different regions and in individual aphids. These results confirm the outstanding potential of the RT-RPA-LFS assay for rapid detection of BYDV.

  • 질경이(Plantago asiatica)는 주로 동아시아에 분포하는 풍매화 식물이다. 전분 젤 전기영동으로 이 종의 18개 집단에 대한 알로자임 다양성과 집단구조를 평가하였다. 비록 질경이 집단은 작고 격리되어 있지만, 높은 유전적 다양성을 가지고 있었다. 평균 다형성을 나타내는 유전자좌위의 수는 57.1%였고, 대립유전자좌위당 유전자수는 2.07이였으며, 18개 집단에 대한 이형접합성은 0.201이였다. 풍매화, 혼합적 생식교배계, 큰 집단 크기, 집단 간 높은 유전자 이동, 다산의 특성이 집단 내 유전적 다양성을 설명할 수 있다. 유전적 다양성은 위도와 관련이 있었는데 질경이 집단은 북위 $35^{\circ}3^{\prime}$를 초과하면 유전적 다양성은 현저하게 감소하였다. 반면에 유전적 다양성에 대한 경도 구배는 나타나지 않았다.

  • In the present study, it was aimed to asses the possibility that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) released in response to transient hypotension may contribute to the reflex autoregulation of cerebral blood flow as a putative modulator. Changes in pial arterial diameter (mean, 33.0 ${\pm}$ 1.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$) with changes in systemic arterial blood pressure (mean, 101.9 ${\pm}$ 2.7 mmHg) were observed directly through a closed cranial window in anesthetized normotensive rats. Image of the pial vessels was captured with a stereoscope connected to a CCD video camera and the diameter was measured with a microscaler. In the capsaicin-treated rats (one day prior to experiment, 50 nmol capsaicin injected intracisternally), both vasodilater and vasoconstrictor responses evoked by a transient hypotension and the reverse of blood pressure were markedly attenuated or almost abolished. When changes in pial arterial diameter were plotted as a function of changes in blood pressure, the slopes of both regression lines (for vasodilators and vasoconstrictors ) were markedly reduced. Similar reductions were evidenced under treatment wi th the CGRP antibody serum (1:1,000) and following CGRP receptor desensitization. However, the autoregulatory mechanics were neither affected by treatment wi th spantide (1 ${\mu}$M), substance P antagonist, nor by substance P receptor desensitization. Suffusion wi th mock cerebrospinal fluid containing CGRP and cromakalim caused a vasodilatation in a concentration-dependent manner, respectively and their effects were antagonized by glibenclamide. Substance P produced a vasodilatation, which was, however, little affected by glibenclamide. These observations indicate that the CGRP released from the perivascular sensory fibers in response to a hypotension is implicated in the modulation of the autoregulation of cerebral blood flow.

  • Objectives : To evaluate the diverse actions of stimulation on the hematopoietic system, 4 formulas (KH I, KH 2, KH 3, KH 4) were studied. Method and Result : RT-PCR was performed to measure the gene expression of hematopoietic cytokines (TPO, GM-CSF, SCF, IL-3). When bone marrow cells were treated with KH 1, 2, 3, 4, the gene expressions of TPO, SCF, IL-3, and GM-CSF were increased. Flow cytometric analysis was performed to measure the expression of CD34+ cell activity. After 72 hrs culture supplemented with KH 1, 2, 3, 4, the percent of CD34+ cell of KH 2, 3, 4 were increased. To measure the expression of colony forming units - granulocyte erythrocytes, macrophages, megakaryocytes (CFU-GEMM) and burst forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E), semisolid clonogenic assay was performed. After 14 days of culture the number of CFU-GEMM and BFU-E of KH I, 2, 3, 4 were significantly increased compared to those of EPO groups (KH 1 P<0.0l, KH 2 P<0.05, KH 3 P<0.001, KH 4 P<0.0l). To determine the intracelluar TPO expression by KH 3, KH 4 in bone marrow cells, intracelluar staining and flow cytometric analysis were performed. After 24 hrs cultures, the TPO expression of the KH 3 and KH 4 treated groups were increased over those of the controlled groups (control : 50%, KH 3 : 87%, KH 4 : 78%). Conclusion : These results suggest that KH I, KH 2, KH 3, KH 4 have hematopoietic effects through increasing the production of hematopoietic cytokines and stimulating the activity of $CD34^{+}$ cells. This study also shows that KH 3 has a more effective hematopoietic effect than KH 1, 2, 4. These results suggest that the formulas (KH I, 2, 3, 4) can be applied to the patients with inappropriate hematopoietic system, and that KH 3 can be the most effective formula among these 4 in treating bone marrow disease in clinics.

  • The oral cavity is humid environment mainly due to the continuous salivary flow. The reaction of oral mucosa to fluid flow is important for homeostasis and pathogenesis. The objective of this study is the screening the change of gene expression after the application of fluid induced shear stress (FISS) on the gingival fibroblast using cDNA microarray assay. The immortalized human gingival fibroblasts were grown and FISS was applied using a cone viscometer at a rotational velocity of 40 rpm, respectively for periods of 2 and 4 hours. The synthesis of cDNA was done from the extracted total RNA and cDNA microarray assay was done subsequently. The genes that showed over 1.6 in the Cy3/Cy5 or the Cy5/Cy3 value were regarded as genes influenced significantly by the FISS application ion (/M/>0.7). The " RUNX-1" was increased its expression in 2 hours group and " RUN and SH3 domain containing 1" was increased its expression in 4 hours group. The "CC020415", "cyclin L1", "interferon regulatory factor1", "early growth response 1", "immediate early response 2", and "immediate early response 3" genes were increased their expression in 2 and 4 hours after FISS application. In conclusion, we could find many genes that were probably related to the FISS application. Interestingly, most of them were placed in similar molecular pathways and these findings improve the reliability of chip data and usefulness in overall screening. From this experiment, we could find many items for further study and it will make improvement in the understanding of intracellular events in response to FISS.

  • 본 연구는 말잘피 군집의 유전적 구조 및 다양성 분석은 잘피 관리를 위해서 시행했다. 거제도, 개도, 제도연안에 서식하는 잘피를 대상으로 RAPD분석에 따른 유전적 다양성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 거제도는 개도 및 제도와는 100 km 이상 떨어진 지역에 서식하는 잘피의 유전적 거리는 0.16으로 나타난 반면에,개도와 제도의 유전적 거리는 0.08정도로 보이고 있다. 거제도에 서식하는 잘피의 개체내 유전적 유사도는 70% 이상으로 나타났으나, 개도와 제도에 비하면 낮은 유사도를 보이고 있다. 따라서 남해안에 서식하고 있는 잘피의 개체는 지역적 거리에 따라 유전적으로 상이한 집단을 형성하고 있다. 이러한 원인은 시스트 확산 및 유전자 이동률 제한 때문인 것으로 추정된다.

  • 2007년 전라남도 여수시 남면 안도리에서 발견된 국내 미기록종 해오말은 지리적으로 열대부터 아열대까지 넓게 분포하는 식물로서 열매를 만든다. 잎의 모양은 계란형에 가깝고, 입꼭지는 견고하고 잎을 지지하고 있다. 뿌리는 불규칙적으로 뻗어있고, 뿌리 사이로 꽃이 형성되어 있다. 잎맥은 잎의 가장자리와 공간을 유지하고 있다. ITS1과 ITS2 부위은 한국산과 일본산 해오말은 100% 동일한 염기서열을 나타내고 있으나, 5.8S에서 한국산 해오말은 202 bp에서 206 bp까지 4개의 염기가 삽입된 것이 보였다. ITS 부위에 대한 한국산 해오말은 일본산과 동일한 유전적 clade을 나타내었으나, 필리핀, 호주, 베트남, 말레이시아산 해오말과는 유전적 분리를 보였다. 따라서 한국산 해오말은 일본에서 gene flow로 된 것으로 추정되며, 아열대성인 해오말이 우리나라 연안에 나타난 것은 기후변동에 의한 수온상승과도 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 보인다.

  • In this work, we evaluated the characteristics of flow field and uniformity of the nose-only exposure chambers for the inhalation toxicity test. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling was carried out to demonstrate uniformity of the nose-only exposure chambers. Because it is very important in the inhalation toxicity experiments that test materials are distributed uniformly to each holder of the chamber. The test was done with these 3 types of chamber with different form to develop inhalation toxicity evaluation system, easy-to-operate system among exposure chamber used for evaluating inhalation toxicity of environmental chemical mixtures. Through CFD interpretation, nose-only exposure chamber was made with the selection of the optimal conditions. For its evaluation, one type of fragrance was selected and measured particle size distribution of each port. The gene becoming luminous to green fluorescence was combined with GPT-SPE, a type of tGFP vector, to be inhaled to the mouse. Based on this, luminous intensity was checked. As a result, total particle number concentration of each port had average value of $3.17{\times}10^6{\sharp}/cm^3$ and range of the highest and lowest concentration value was approximately ${\pm}4.8%$. Autopsy of lung tissues of mouse showed that it had clearly better delivery of gene compared to the control group.
