This study examined and compared the exopeptidase and endoprotease activities of the hepatopancreas (HP) of cuttlefish, squid, and octopus species. The protein concentration in crude extract (CE) from octopus HP was 3,940 mg/100 g, lower than those in CEs from squid HP (4,157 mg/100 g) and cuttlefish HP (5,940 mg/100 g). With azocasein of pH 6 as a substrate, the total activity in HP CE of octopus was 31,000 U, lower than the values for cuttlefish (57,000 U) and squid (69,000 U). Regardless of sample type, the total activities of the CEs with azocasein as the substrate were higher at pH 6 (31,000-69,000 U) than at pH 9 (19,000-34,000 U). With L-leucine-p-nitroanilide (LeuPNA) of pH 6 as the substrate, the total activity of the HP CE from octopus was 138,000 U, higher than values from both cuttlefish HP (72,000 U) and squid HP (63,000 U). Regardless of sample type, the total activities of the CEs with LeuPNA as the substrate were higher at pH 6 (63,000-138,000 U) than at pH 9 (41,000-122,000 U). With LeuPNA as the substrate, the total activities of the CEs from octopus HP and cuttlefish HP were higher at pH 6 than at pH 9. However, there was no difference in total activity between pH 6 and 9 for squid HP CE with LeuPNA as the substrate. These results suggest that the octopus HP is superior to the cuttlefish HP and squid HP as a potential resource for extracting exopeptidases. Exopeptidases from octopus HP have potential industrial applications and their use might aid in reducing pollution related to the octopus industry.

One growth trial and one digestibility trial were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of HP300, a commercially processed soybean meal product for weanling pigs. Dried whey, fish meal and/or full fat extruded soybeans (FFES) as well as portions of soybean meal (SBM) were replaced with HP300 in weanling pig diets. The objectives were to investigate the effects of HP300 on growth performance, digestibility, ileal amino acid digestibility and blood amino acid concentration in weanling pigs. One hundred and twenty crossbred $(Duroc{\times}Beijing\;Black{\times}Landrace)$ pigs weaned at 28 days of age were used in the growth trial. The pigs were randomly allocated to five treatments, with three pens per treatment and eight pigs per pen. The trial duration was 28 days. The control (CTRL) diet contained no HP300; in treatments 2, 3 and 4, dried whey and fish meal were replaced by 3.0%, 7.5% and 10.5% HP300; in treatment 5, full fat extruded soybeans were replaced by 10.5% HP300 plus soybean oil to attain the same metabolic energy content as FFES. Five T-cannulated barrows were used in a digestibility trial with a $5{\times}5$ Latin square design to determine nitrogen retention and amino acid ileal digestibility of HP300 used alone or mixed with other ingredients. The results indicated that replacement of dried whey, fish meal, full fat extruded soybeans and a part of the soybean meal with HP300 in piglet diets improved average daily gain and feed conversion ratio (p < 0.05). There was a trend toward improved DM, crude protein and amino acid ileal digestibilities and improved protein and amino acid ileal digestibilities and improved protein net availability with the use of HP300 in swine diets.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy with the highest incidence rates among women worldwide. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) disease is diagnosed more frequently in younger women, and is associated with a poor prognosis. Elevated levels of serum haptoglobin protein (Hp) are observed in many malignant diseases including breast cancer. We evaluated the expression and prognostic value of Hp among patients with TNBC. Materials and Methods: Serum Hp levels were determined by Elisa in 41 patients with TNBC and 10 normal individuals. Hp status was correlated with other clinico-pathological parameters including patient survival. Results: Of the 41 patients with TNBC, Hp over expression was detected in 24 (59%) by Elisa. Hp up-regulation was confirmed by Elisa based quantification in the serum of 41 TNBC patients against lower grades and 10 normal individuals. Survival analysis revealed that Hp ($p=2.016{\times}10^{-5}$), stage ($p=2.166{\times}10^{-5}$), distant metastasis ($p=2.217{\times}10^{-5}$), tumor size ($p=1.053{\times}10^{-5}$), and tumor grade (p=0.001), correlated with patient survival on univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis revealed that Hp (p=0.001), and grade of the disease (p=0.008) were independent predictors of survival. Conclusion: Our results indicate that serum levels of Hp may play a role as a potential serum biomarker and prognostic indicator among TNBC patients. Thus, Hp may present a new promising prognostic biomarker in TNBC patients, but independent validations are now necessary for confirmation.

본 논문에서는 QAM 변조의 계층적 변조 특성을 이용하여 Iterative MIMO 수신기에서 LLR(log likelihood ratio)값을 구하기 위한 낮은 복잡도를 가지는 후보 리스트 발생 기법을 소개한다. QAM 변조는 에러에 강인한 HP(high priority) 심볼과 상대적으로 에러에 약한 LP(low priority) 심볼로 분해할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 HP 심볼에 대해서는 간단한 ZF 수신기의 output 값과 인접 HP 심볼들을 이용하여 먼저 안테나별로 HP 심볼 리스트를 발생하고, 각 HP 심볼 리스트에 대해서 ML(maximum likelihood)의 검파 성능을 가지는 sphere decoder를 사용하여 LP 심볼 리스트를 발생하여 후보 심볼 리스트를 발생하였다. 두 번째 iteration 이후부터는 채널 디코더에서 피드백되는 apriori 값을 이용하여 후보 심볼 리스트를 발생하였다. 실험의 비교군은 MIMO 채널 용량에 근사적으로 접근하는 list sphere decoder(LSD)를 사용하였다. 전산 실험 결과, 제안하는 후보 리스트 발생 기법은 LSD에 비해서 첫 번째 iteration에서는 BER성능이 다소 떨어지나, iteration 이 진행될수록 LSD에 근접하는 성능을 보였으며, 후보 리스트의 발생 시간도 LSD에 비해서 월등히 우수한 성능을 가짐을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 LLR 계산 시 탐색해야 할 후보 리스트의 개수 역시 LSD에 비해서 적은 값을 가지므로, LLR 계산 시 필요한 연산의 복잡도가 낮음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Eggs obtained from 46 and 42 weeks old meat (Hybro) and layer (Leghorn) breeders flocks, respectively were used to examine the effects of genetic type of birds and egg size (small, medium and large) on variables of eggshell characteristics and hatchability traits. The variables measured were egg weight (EW), egg surface area (ESA) and eggshell characteristics (shell conductance (EC), per cent shell (PS), shell thickness (ST), shell volume (SV), shell density (SD) and hatchability traits (per cent hatchability (HP), early dead embryos (ED), late dead embryos (LD), pips with live embryos (PL) and pips with dead embryos (PD)). Genetic type of bird influenced all egg characteristics and HP of eggs. Eggs produced by the small Leghorn bird had lower EW, ESA, EC, ST, SV and HP than those produced by the heavy Hybro bird. The reduction of HP was associated with an increase in the percentage of ED and PL. Egg size influenced all variables measured except ST. Small size eggs had lower EW, ESA and EC and higher PS and SD than those of large eggs. Medium size eggs produced a higher HP when compared with that of large size eggs. The reduction of HP in large eggs was associated with higher percentage of ED, LD and PL. There were significant interactions between the genetic group of birds and egg size on LD and HP. Large egg size of Hybro birds had higher LD and lower HP than those of small size eggs produced by the same flock. However, There was no difference in HP and LD among the different egg sizes produced by Leghorn birds. It was concluded that genetic make up of birds and egg size influence eggshell characteristics and HP. The type of bird (heavy or small) influences the optimum egg size for successful hatching. Attention should be given to the size and eggshell characteristics of eggs of breeders' flocks for achieving maximum HP.

본 연구에서는 우수한 물성과 표면품질을 가지는 오토클레이브 성형공법의 비효율적인 공정을 개선하여 탈 오토클레이브(Out-of-autoclave, 이하 OOA) 공정으로써 활용이 가능한 진공백 핫 프레스 공정(Vacuum bag hot-press, 이하 V-HP)을 이용하여 탄소섬유 복합재료를 제작하고 오토클레이브(Autoclave, 이하 AC) 공정과 핫 프레스공정(Hot-press, 이하 HP)으로 제작된 복합재료간 물성 및 미세구조를 분석하였으며, OOA공정으로의 가능성을 확인하였다. V-HP공정을 사용한 복합재료의 인장강도는 320.6 MPa로써, AC공정을 이용한 복합재료의 인장강도 335.3 MPa에 상당히 근접한 물성을 보이는 것을 확인하였다. SEM을 이용한 복합재료 표면품질을 확인한 결과 V-HP공정의 경우, 수지내 휘발용매로 인한 기공의 제거상태가 AC공정과 비교하여 다소 낮으나 HP공정과 비교하여 상당히 우수한 표면을 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The inhibitory effects of different Bifidobacterium spp. on the growth of Helicobacter pylori (HP) were investigated. A significant suppression of HP growth occurred only when HP was inoculated onto a petri dish containing 0.1 mg/ml of Bifidobacterium spp. When HP was separately cultured with B. breve K-110, B. catenulatum K-309, B magnum K-311, B. magnum K-321, and B. cuniculi K-513, the urease activity was also inhibited by these Bifidobacterium spp. Therefore, it appears that these Bifidobacterium spp. excrete a heat-labile inhibitory component for HP growth into the culture medium. Although most organic acids produced by the Bifidobacterium spp. inhibited the growth of HP, the HP growth was not inhibited by the physiological concentrations of organic acids produced in bifidobacteria-cultured media. Accordingly, these results suggest that some Bifidobacterium spp. may produce antibiotic-like compounds (bacteriocins).
