Exact constitutional classification is especially important in Sasang Constitutional Medicine. Therefore, most studies on the Sasang Constitutional medicine have been focused on how accurately to classify Sasang Constitution. Recently, there have been reported on the studies about relationship between genetic polymorphism and Sansang Constitution. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there is any correlation between Sasang Constitution and HLA type. Polymorphism of HLA genes have been known to be important role in transplantation, autoimmune disease, immune response against infection. This study was concentrated on a relationship of HLA-A, -C, -DR, and -DQ types with Sasang Constitution. Results are as following. 1. In the case of HLA-A, there was no significant difference. Only $HLA-A^*31$ has a tendency which Soyangin is less frequent than Soeumin and Taeumin. 2. In the case of HLA-C, there was significant difference between Sasang Constitution and HLA type. In persons having $HLA-C^*04$ allele, Taeumin is more frequent than Soyangin and Soeumin. On the other hand, Soyangin is more frequent than Taeumin and Soeumin in $HLA-C^*07$ allele. $HLA-C^*14$ has a tendency which Soeumin is more frequent than Soyangin and Taeumin. 3. In. the case of HLA-DR type and HLA-DQ type, there was no significant difference among Sansang Constitution. On the study of correlation between Sasang Constitution and HLA type, there was little statistical significance and tendency. This study was the first try about presentation of frequency on the HLA alleles corresponding with Sasang Constitution. I think that more study on the relationship between HLA gene and Sasang Constitution is necessary by method of large case research and various statistical analysis.

Recently, by developing many training systems in battle field, the demand for interconnecting and internetworking between Live, Virtual, Constructive training systems has been increased to support efficient data distribution and system control. But, there are lots of problems for them to interwork, because the existing researches only support L-L, V-V, C-C Interoperability. Therefore, we propose L-V-C gateway to provide interoperable simulation environment based on HLA and DDS between them. First, we illustrate FOM Management that parses RPR-FOM XML file to acquire Data information to be shared between them, and generates common data structure and source code used for L-V-C Gateway. L-V-C Gateway created from FOM Management supports Data Conversion and Quality of Service between HLA and DDS. HLA Federate and DDS Domainparticipant in L-V-C Gateway play a role of logical communication channel and relay data from HLA Federation to DDS Domain and vice versa.

Objective: The survival of a semi-allogeneic fetus depends on several immunological mechanisms, and it has been suggested that recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) could develop as a result of one or more immunological abnormalities. Methods: Compatibility between partners for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes and the relationships between maternal killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) and paternal HLA-Bw4/Bw6 and HLA-C1/C2 supra-groups were investigated in 25 couples with RPL in comparison to healthy couples with children. HLA and KIR genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers and/or sequence-specific oligonucleotides. Results: HLA class I incompatibility between partners, especially in HLA-B alleles, was more common in the RPL group (p= 0.01). HLA-C2 homozygosity was more frequent in the male partners of RPL couples than in other groups (p= 0.03). The KIR2DL5 gene frequency was significantly higher in both the female and male partners of RPL couples, whereas the KIR2DS3 gene frequency in male partners of RPL couples was significantly reduced (p= 0.03). The presence of KIR2DL3 in women with RPL was correlated with the presence of HLA-C2 alleles in their spouses (p= 0.03). Conclusion: Our data from a Turkish population suggest that male HLA-C2 homozygosity may play an important role in RPL. Additionally, an incidental match between male HLA-C2 and female HLA-C1 ligand KIR receptors might perturb the balance between activatory and inhibitory KIR-ligand interactions during pregnancy in couples affected by RPL. The roles of orphan KIR2DL5 and orphan KIR2DS3 in RPL remain obscure.

HLA 유전자군은 인간의 유전자 중에서 가장 높은 유전적 다형성을 보이며, 분석방법에 따라 판정할 수 있는 대립유전자의 수에 많은 차이가 있다. 현재까지 혈청학적 방법을 이용하여 HLA항원형 구분을 하였으나, 최근 골수이식 등 여러 HLA활용분야에서 HLA유전자형 분석이 요구되고 있어, 많은 수의 HLA유전자형을 쉽고 정확하게 구분할 수 있는 HLA DNA typing 방법이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 HLA-A, B, C, DRBI 유전자형 구분은 PCR-SSP 방법을, HLA-DQAl, DQBl, DPBl 유전자형 구분은 PCR-RFLP 방법을 사용한 HLA DNA typing 방법으로 한국인에서 HLA 유전자형을 구분하고자 하였다. 본 방법을 이용하여 HLA형이 규명된 B-임파아구 표준세포에서 DNA typing을 실시하였을 때, 11차 국제 조직적 합성학회에서 발표된 결과와 모두 일치하였다. 한국인에서 HLA-A, -B, -C 대 립 유전자는 17종, 23종, 16종이 확인되었으며, HLA-DQAl, -DQBl, -DPBl, -DRBl 대립유전자는 8종, 16종, 13종, 37종이 확인되었다. 한국인에서 빈도가 높은 HLA-class I 유전자는 HLA-A 유전자에서 $A^*$02가 27.0%였으며 HLA-B 유전자에서 는 $B^*$40이 17.6%를 나타내 었고 HLA-C 유전자에서는 Cw$^*$0101이 19.2%로 가장 높은 빈도를 나타내었다. 한국인에서 가장 빈도가 높은 HLA-class II 유전자는 DQAl 유전자에서 DQAl$^*$0301이 32.1%였고, DQBl 유전자에서는 DQBl$^*$0303이 12.9%를 나타내었으며, DPBl 유전자에서는 DPBl$^*$0501이 31.3%였고 DRBl 유전자에서는 DRBl$^*$1501이 9.2%를 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 실시한 HLA DNA typing 방법은 비교적 빠른 시간 내에 많은 종류의 HLA 대립 유전자형을 정확하게 구분할 수 있으므로 앞으로 tissue typing 실험실에서 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 또한 DNA typing방법을 이용하여 분석한 한국인의 HLA-class I, II 유전자군의 유전자형 빈도는 골수이식을 비롯한 각종 이식검사, 특수 질환 관련검사나 인류유전학연구 등 HLA 유전자의 임상적 활용을 위한 자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Of all HLA class I molecules, HLA-C gene products are most poorly understood because they express at a low level on the cell surface compared to HLA-A and -B. In order to identify serologically detectable and undetectable HLA-C antigens, we have established a DNA-based tissue typing method for the HLA-C locus by PCR-SSP (polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers). Genomic DNA prepared from Iymphoblastoid 21 B-cell lines and 120 Korean individuals by proteinase K digestion and pheno/chloroform extractions have been typed by PCR-SSP (23 primer mixes were used). The PCR-SSP results of control cell lines were discrepant from serology in 1 case among 21 cases: Cw6 which was negative by serology but positive by PCR-SSP (cell line: MANIKA). Twenty four HLA-Cw "blank" antigens among fifty Korean individuals were completely determined by PCR-SSP DNA typing. HLA-Cw*0101 (15.3%), Cw*1401 (12.3%) and Cw*0701 (11.7%) alleles were frequently found in 120 Korean individual samples. In conclusion. the high level of discrimination for HLA-C alleles may prove useful and informative in the study of transplant survival, and identify the importance of allelic differences, not readily detectable by serology, on host and donor compatibility.

We examined the immunogenicity of H-2 class I-restricted and HLA-A2-restricted epitopes through peptide immunization of HLA-A2-transgenic mice that also express mouse H-2 class I molecules. All four of the tested epitopes restricted by H-2 class I robustly elicited T-cell responses, but four of seven epitopes restricted by HLA-A2 did not induce T-cell responses, showing that HLA-A2-restricted peptide epitopes tend to be poorly immunogenic in HLA-A2-transgenic mice. This finding was confirmed in HLA-A2-transgenic mice infected with a recombinant vaccinia virus expressing hepatitis C virus proteins. We examined the precursor frequency of epitope-specific naïve $CD8^+$ T cells in HLA-A2-transgenic and conventional C57BL/6 mice and found that the poor immunogenicity of HLA-A2-restricted peptide epitopes is related to the paucity of naïve $CD8^+$ T-cell precursors in HLA-A2-transgenic mice. These results provide direction for the improvement of mouse models to study epitope repertoires and the immunodominance of human T-cell responses.

NAIT는 태아의 혈소판 동종 항체에 의해 산모가 감작되어 항체를 형성함으로써 발생되는 질환이다. 대부분의 NAIT는 혈소판 특이항체에 의해서 발생하며 HLA 항체에 의한 발병은 드물다. 저자들은 항 HLA-B35 항체에 의한 NAIT 1예를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다. 환아는 둘째로 태어난 남자 아이로 출생 시 점상출혈이나 자반은 없었다. 출생 5일에 발생한 발열을 주소로 내원하여 시행한 혈액검사에서 혈소판 수치가 $106\times10^9/L$로 감소하였다. 발열은 입원 후 호전 되었으며 2병일 흉부에 점상출혈을 보였으며 혈소판이 $25\times10^9/L$까지 감소하였다. CRP 및 PT, PTT는 정상이었다. 산모의 혈소판 수치는 정상이었고 출혈의 과거력은 없었다. PRA test로 산모의 혈청에서 항-HLA B35, B52, B56, C3, C14 가 확인되었고 환아와 아버지의 혈청에서 HLA-B35 항원이 검출되었다. 산모의 항 HLA-B35 항체와 환아가 아버지로부터 물려받은 HLA-B35 항원이 반응하였음을 확인할 수 있었다. 환아는 농축 혈소판과 면역글로불린 투여 후 혈소판 수치가 $248\times10^9/L$로 상승하면서 이후 호전되었다.

네트워크의 급격한 발전과 무기 기술력의 향상으로 인해 현대전은 첨단화된 무기를 즉각적으로 사용할 수 있는 능력을 필요로 하게 되었다. 이를 위해서는 지속적인 훈련이 필요하지만, 많은 인력을 들임으로써 과도한 예산을 요구하게 된다. 따라서, 국방 모델링/시뮬레이션(Modeling and Simulation, M&S)을 사용하여 훈련하는 사례가 증가하고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 시뮬레이션 환경들은 현실감을 떨어뜨리기 때문에 실 훈련과 가상 훈련을 병합한 훈련 환경을 제공할 수 있는 L-V-C 체계가 대두되었고, 이를 제공하는 다양한 미들웨어가 존재한다. 기존의 미들웨어들은 서로 다른 시뮬레이션을 연동해줄 수 있지만, 세 가지(Live, Virtual, Constructive)의 모든 체계를 연동해주지 못하는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 서로 다른 미들웨어 간 연동을 제안하고, 실험적으로 증명하기 위해 대표적인 미들웨어인 HLA와 DDS간의 연동을 보인다.

Objective : Moyamoya disease (MMD) is an uncommon cerebrovascular disorder, characterized by progressive occlusion at the terminal portion of the internal carotid artery. Incidence of the disease is high in East Asia and familial MMD accounts for about 15% of the disease. Although the pathogenesis is unknown, association of HLA class I or II alleles with MMD has been reported with conflicting results. We investigated whether there is a difference in HLA class II association between familial and non-familial forms of the disease. Methods : A total of 70 Korean children with MMD, including 16 familial cases (10 probands), and 207 healthy controls were studied. Among familial cases, only 10 probands were used for the HLA frequency analysis. High resolution HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-sequence specific oligonucleotide hybridization and PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism methods. Results : The phenotype frequencies of HLA-DRB1*1302 (70.0%) and DQB1*0609 (40.0%) were significantly increased in familial MMD compared to both controls [vs. 15.5%, corrected p ($p_c$) = 0.008, odds ratio (OR) = 12.76; vs. 4.3%, $p_c\;=\;0.02$, OR = 14.67] and non-familial MMD patients (vs. 14.8%, $p_c\;=\;0.02$, OR = 13.42; vs. 1.9%, $p_c\;=\;0.02$, OR = 35.33). The frequencies of DRB1 and DQB1 alleles in non-familial MMD patients were not significantly different from those in controls. Conclusion : Our findings suggest that the genetic polymorphism of HLA class II genes or other closely linked disease relevant gene(s) could be a genetic predisposing factor for familial MMD.
