Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the spatial configurations of a sample of Korean regional emergency medical centers (REMCs) to explore its underlying genotypes and thus produce a base line data for the analysis and evaluations of future REMCs designs using space syntax theory. Methods: Space syntax analysis was used as a major tool for the analysis and exploration of Genotype. The measures of Integration(overall integration with exterior and without exterior as well as the integration of individual clinical spaces for each center), base difference factor (DF) and Space link ratio were calculated for a sample of seven Korean REMCs. Results: The result shows a strikingly similar pattern of Syntactic measures across the sample, the mean integration of sample ranges from 0.82-0.99 with exterior (while considering the exterior space as a root) and 0.81-1.01 without exterior (considering the connections of interior spaces only with no outside connection). The base difference factor (DF) of the sample varies from 0.60-0.81 with exterior and from 0.59-0.82 without exterior. Case number-1 was identified as non-genotype with differing order of Syntactic values. Although the genotype had different forms, layouts and even sizes, these results cannot be explained by Phenotypical comparisons. Implications: This study will contribute to the configurational analysis and evaluation of existing and future Korean REMCs design and practice of emergency healthcare delivery system in Korea.

Cyclosporine (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK506) have a narrow therapeutic range, and their pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristic varies among individual. They are also substrates for cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, 3A5 genes, and P-glycoprotein, the product of the multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1). The aims were to investigate the relationship between CYP3A and MDR1 genotypes and their PK parameters among healthy subjects. We investigated the genotype for CYP3A and MDR1 gene in human using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. After oral administration of CsA and FK506 (100 mg and 1 mg, respectively), whole blood samples were taken up to 24 hours. Blood CsA and FK506 concentrations were measured by LC/MS/MS. Each PK parameters were compared using Kruskal-Wallis test according to the CYP3A and MDR1 genotype. We found that the values of AVC for CsA were significantly different among CYP3A5 and MDR1 exon 26 (C3435T) genotypes (P=0.037 and P=0.049). On the other hand, the AUC for FK506 was significantly different only among CYP3A5 genotypes (P=0.013). The results clearly demonstrate the effects of CYP3A5 and MDR1 exon 26 on Cys and FK506 disposition.

To detect Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers associated with Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) S/P ratio in Korean Holstein dairy cattle, Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using Illumina BovineSNP50 Beadchip. The number of phenotype data and genotype data were 107, and 294. respectively. Phenotype data were collected for four periods (0 week, 1 week, 4 week, 24 week) after having vaccinated (0 week no vaccinated period). A total of 36,257 SNPs was remained after quality control had been done by PLINK. The result of GWAS showed 6 SNP markers (BTB-01704243, BTB-01594395, ARS-BFGL-NGS-118070, ARS-BFGL-NGS-111365, BTA-65410-no-rs, Hapmap38331-BTA-61256) under BVDV and 4 SNP markers (ARS-BFGL-NGS-109861, Hapmap53701-rs29017064, ARS-BFGL-NGS-71055, BTA-11232-no-rs) under BRSV.

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is caused by mutations in the ATP binding cassette subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1), a gene that encodes peroxisomal membrane located on ABC half-transporter named adrenoleukodystrophy protein (ALDP). X-ALD is characterized by a highly variable clinical spectrum, including progressive cerebral type, adrenomyeloneuropathy, and addison-only phenotype. No genotype/phenotype correlation has been established. Thus, unidentified modifier genes and other co-factors are speculated to modulate the phenotypic variation and disease severity. Recent advanced sequencing methods and reprogramming technologies not only offer an affordable and applicable approach to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms of adrenoleukodystrophy, but also provide means to develop therapy. A causal therapy of X-ALD is lacking. Lorenzo's oil therapy is recommended for asymptomatic boys, but the longest study found that the oil was not beneficial at all to symptomatic X-ALD patients. Hematopoietic stem cell therapy has a relevant chance of success when performed during this early stage of cerebral type X-ALD. Recently, it has been insisted that lentiviral-mediated gene therapy of hematopoietic stem cells can provide clinical benefits in X-ALD. This review describes current knowledge on the clinical presentation, pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of X- ALD.

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is one of the main quality features of this crop because of its sense of pungency, which is due to the presence of capsaicinoids. This compound is synthesized as a secondary metabolite and found only in the placental tissue of spicy fruit (Suzuki et al., 1980). Stewart et al. (2005) concluded that Pun1 encodes for the acyltransferase AT3 and they demonstrated its involvement in capsaicinoids metabolism. It was analyzed that the capsaicinoids content and PUN1 genotype in pepper genetic resources which were selected with excellent phenotype in field evaluation. The number of pepper genetic resources analyzed was 135, and species were C. annuum, C. baccatum, C. chinense, C. frutescens. The content of capsaicinoid ranged from 0 mg/100g to 828 mg/100g. The content of 0 mg/100g was the sweet pepper type, the highest content is IT 158530, the capsaicinoid content of which was 828 mg/100g and species was C. annuum. PUN1 gene analysis showed 117 pungent, 5 hetero, and 13 non-pungent. PUN1 analysis showed that 5 out of 13 non-pungent accessions were detected with low levels of capsaicinoid.

Genetic factors clearly play a role in carcinogenesis, but migrant studies provide unequivocal evidence that environmental factors are critical in defining cancer risk. Therefore, one may expect that the lower availability of substrate for biochemical reactions leads to more genetic changes in enzyme function; for example, most studies have indicated the variant MTHFR genotype 677TT is related to biomarkers, such as homocysteine concentrations or global DNA methylation particularly in a low folate diet. The modification of a phenotype related to a genotype, particularly by dietary habits, could support the notion that some of inconsistencies in findings from molecular epidemiologic studies could be due to differences in the populations studied and unaccounted underlying characteristics mediating the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and the actual phenotypes. Given the evidence that diet can modify cancer risk, gene-diet interactions in cancer etiology would be anticipated. However, much of the evidence in this area comes from observational epidemiology, which limits the causal inference. Thus, the investigation of these interactions is essential to gain a full understanding of the impact of genetic variation on health outcomes. This report reviews current approaches to gene-diet interactions in epidemiological studies. Characteristics of gene and dietary factors are divided into four categories: one carbon metabolism-related gene polymorphisms and dietary factors including folate, vitamin B group and methionines; oxidative stress-related gene polymorphisms and antioxidant nutrients including vegetable and fruit intake; carcinogen-metabolizing gene polymorphisms and meat intake including heterocyclic amins and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon; and other gene-diet interactive effect on cancer.

Background: Genetic mutation is a significant factor in colon CA pathogenesis. Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease characterized by multiple colorectal adenomatous polyps affecting a number of cases in the family. This report focuses on a family with attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (AFAP) with exon 4 mutation, c.481C>T p.Q161X of the APC gene. Methods: We analyzed 20 members of a family with AFAP. Clinical and endoscopic data were collected for phenotype determination. Genetic analysis was also performed by direct sequencing of the APC gene. Result: Five patients with a phenotype of AFAP were found. Endoscopic polyposis was demonstrated among the second generation with genotype mutation of the disease (age > 50 years) consistent with delayed phenotypic adenomatous polyposis in AFAP. APC gene mutation was identified in exon 4 of the APC gene, with mutation points of c.481C>T p.Q161X. Laparoscopic subtotal colectomy was performed to prevent carcinogenesis. Conclusion: A family with attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis of APC related to exon 4 mutation, c.481C>T p.Q161X, was reported and the phenotypic finding was confirmed by endoscopic examination. Genetic mutation analysis might be advantageous in AFAP for long term colon cancer prevention and management due to subtle or asymptomatic phenotype presentation in early adulthood.
