활성산소 소거 효소인 superoxide dismutase (SOD)가 결핍된 효소 변이주들을 대상으로 하여, 활성산소 유발물질인 paraquat을 배지에 첨가하여 배양하면서 산소 독성을 관찰하였다. 호기 상태에서 는 MnSOD (mitochondria SOD) 결핍 효모는 CuZnSOD (세포질 SOD) 결핍 효모보다 성장이 많 이 저하되었지만, 혐기 상태에서는 이들 SOD 결핍 효모 모두 성장 속도에서 야생 효모와 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. Paraquat으로 처 리한 결과, 호기 배양 에서 CuZnSOD 결핍 효모는 O.OlmM 이상에서 성 장하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 O.OOlmM paraquat을 배지에 첨가한 후 호기적으로 배양하면서 세포내 성분의 변화를 관찰하였더니, CuZnSOD 결핍 효모에셔는 catalase 역가가 떨어진 반면 glutathion peroxidase 역가와 세포막 지질의 과산 화물이 증가하였으며, MnSOD 결핍 효모에서는 catalase 역가와 glutathion peroxide 역가가 모두 조금씩 증가하면서 세포막 지질의 과산화물은 그다지 변화하지 않았다. 이러한 사실로부터 CuZnSOD 가 없는 경우 활성산소 소거계로써 catalase 보다 glutathion peroxidase가 훨씬 활성화되어지지만, 이렇게 활성화된 glutathion peroxidase로는 세포질내 산소 radical을 완벽히 제거하는데에는 다소 불충분 하다는 사실을 알 수 았었다. 한편, 혐기적 배양에서 는 SOD 결핍 효모들의 catalase 역가는 모두 감소 한 반면, glutathion peroxidase 역가는 다소 증가하였고, 또한 세포막 지질의 과산화물은 다소 감소하는 추세를 보였다. 이는 혐기 상태에서 산소 radical 이 소량밖에 생기지 않으므로, 활성화된 glutathion p peroxidase에 의해 어느 정도 극복되어지기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 두 집단 간에 어느 정도 방향성은 있는 것으로 판단된다.ds for eagerness for lasting life not only in this world but also in the other world., Keun-Kap, Scarf, Pee-Bak, Hung-Kap, Pok-Kap, Yang-Dang-Kap, We-Yo-Kap, Kum-Kap, and caries arms.

송라(Usnea diffracta Vain.)는 송라속(Usnea)에 속하는 지의류 중 하나이며, 이전 연구에서 항산화, 항균, 항염, 항종양 및 심혈관 보호 등의 약리학적 활성이 보고되어 있으나 피부 및 모발에서의 효능은 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 세포 수준에서 송라 추출물(UDE)의 항노화 및 모유두세포 증식에 대한 효과를 검증하였다. 실험 결과, 송라 추출물은 인간 섬유아세포에서 UVA에 의해 증가된 MMP-1의 발현 및 상위기전인 MAPKs (ERK, p38, JNK)와 AP-1 (c-Fos, c-Jun)의 활성을 유의적으로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 송라 추출물은 인간 모유두세포의 증식을 유의하게 증가시켰으며, 모발 성장인자인 VEGF 및 KGF의 mRNA 발현을 유의하게 증가시켰다. 이로 인하여, 모발 증식 및 성장인자의 발현에 관여하는 ERK/CREB의 인산화를 농도 의존적으로 증가시켰다. 송라 추출물의 주성분 확인을 위해 송라 추출물을 농축 후 Prep-LC를 이용하여 main peak로 나타난 분획을 분리 정제하였고, NMR 및 Mess 분석을 통해 diffractaic acid로 동정하였다. Diffractaic acid는 인간 섬유아세포에서 UVA에 의해 증가된 MMP-1의 발현을 유의적으로 감소시켰으며, 인간 모유두세포의 증식을 농도 의존적으로 증가시켰다. 이를 통해 송라 추출물은 항노화 및 모유두세포 활성 증가 효능을 갖는 화장품 천연소재로서의 활용 가능성을 입증하였다.

The mechanism by which 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) bypasses cellular senescence was investigated using human diploid fibroblast (HDF) cell replicative senescence as a model. Upon TPA treatment, protein kinase C (PKC) ${\alpha}$ and $PKC{\beta}1$ exerted differential effects on the nuclear translocation of cytoplasmic pErk1/2, a protein which maintains senescence. $PKC{\alpha}$ accompanied pErk1/2 to the nucleus after freeing it from $PEA-15pS^{104}$ via $PKC{\beta}1$ and then was rapidly ubiquitinated and degraded within the nucleus. Mitogen-activated protein kinase docking motif and kinase activity of $PKC{\alpha}$ were both required for pErk1/2 transport to the nucleus. Repetitive exposure of mouse skin to TPA downregulated $PKC{\alpha}$ expression and increased epidermal and hair follicle cell proliferation. Thus, $PKC{\alpha}$ downregulation is accompanied by in vivo cell proliferation, as evidenced in 7, 12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-TPA-mediated carcinogenesis. The ability of TPA to reverse senescence was further demonstrated in old HDF cells using RNA-sequencing analyses in which TPA-induced nuclear $PKC{\alpha}$ degradation freed nuclear pErk1/2 to induce cell proliferation and facilitated the recovery of mitochondrial energy metabolism. Our data indicate that TPA-induced senescence reversal and carcinogenesis promotion share the same molecular pathway. Loss of $PKC{\alpha}$ expression following TPA treatment reduces pErk1/2-activated SP1 biding to the $p21^{WAF1}$ gene promoter, thus preventing senescence onset and overcoming G1/S cell cycle arrest in senescent cells.

Melanin biosynthesis is a human defense mechanism to protect skin from UV irradiation and also determines colors of hair and skin. However, as a interest on skin-whitening increases, researches to prevent pigmentation and hypersynthesis of melanin in skin are being actively in progress. Active components used as a whitening agent in cosmeceuticals are kojic acid, arbutin, vitamin C and hydroquinone. However, until now, because comparison researches among them in the aspect of both melanin formation and cellular toxicity have not been performed, we can't exactly estimate merits and defects of them as a whitening agent. To this end, we performed experiments to compare their effects on cell viability and melanin formation. As a first step, in vitro tyrosinase inhibition assay was done. While kojic acid and hydroquinone showed strong inhibition activities(their IC$\_$50/s are all < 100uM), arbutin and vitamin C showed weak activities. IC$\_$50/s of arbutin and vitamin C are 100uM and 400∼500uM, respectively. In B16BL6 melanoma cells, like in vitro tyrosinase inhibition assay, arbutin and kojic acid showed more strong inhibition effect on melanin synthesis than vitamin C. And unlike arbutin, vitamin C and kojic acid induced cell death at high concentration. Although arbutin showed no cytotoxicity, it has side effect to induce morphological change at high concentration.. In this paper, we suggest both kojic acid and arbutin have stronger ability to inhibit melanogenesis than vitamin C. And they also have side effect, that is, kojic acid induces cell death like vitamin C and arbutin changes cell morphology respectively.

Deiters' cells are the supporting cells in organ of Corti and are suggested to play an important role in biochemical and mechanical modulation of outer hair cells. We successfully isolated functionally different $K^+$ currents from Deiters' cells of guinea pig using whole cell patch clamp technique. With high $K^+$ pipette solution, depolarizing step pulses activated strongly outward rectifying currents which were dose-dependently blocked by clofilium, a class III anti-arrhythmic $K^+$ channel blocker. The remaining outward current was transient in time course whereas the clofilium-sensitive outward current showed slow inactivation and delayed rectification. Addition of 5 mM tetraethylammonium (TEA) further blocked the remaining current leaving a very fast inactivating transient outward current. Therefore, at least three different types of $K^+$ current were identified in Deiters' cells, such as fast activating and fast inactivating current, fast activating slow inactivating current, and very fast inactivating transient outward current. Physiological role of them needs to be established.

Pilomatricoma is a benign neoplasm of the hair follicle origin which most common occur in the head and neck, particularly in the cheek and preauricular region. This neoplasm is superficially located and stony, hard consistency on palpation and sometimes shows reddish or bluish discoloration on the overlying skin. The diagnosis is confirmed by histopathologic examination. Radiologic evaluation is little diagnostic and fine needle aspiration biopsy often misdiagnose because both tissues from basaloid cell component and shadow cell component should be obtained for correct diagnosis. And Otolaryngologist should consider the possibility of philomatricoma when childhood or early adulthood persion visits with hard, supferficial mass on the parotid or cheek area. The treatment of choice is surgical excision with clear resection margin. In many instances, overlying skin excision is needed. We report 4 cases of philomatricoma arising from preauricular, cheek and posterior neck.

Pilomatrixoma is a benign skin appendage tumor of hair matrix cell origin. The cytological appearance of this tumor may cause problems when attempting to establish a differential diagnosis with other neoplasms. Herein we report the aspiration cytology findings of two cases of pilomatrixoma. One case was diagnosed as atypical cell clusters initially and the other was diagnosed as pilomatrixoma. On cytologic examination, both cases showed clusters of tightly arranged basaloid cells with an uniform appearance, scanty cytoplasm and round hyperchromatic nuclei. There were histiocytes and multinucleated foreign body giant cells merged with the amorphous opaque orangeophilic materials of "ghost cells". The differential diagnosis with other neoplasms is discussed.

Cadmium ($Cd^{2+}$) is a heavy metal and a potent carcinogen implicated in tumor development through occupational and environmental exposure. However, the auditory effect of $Cd^{2+}$ is not poorly understood. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether prevent the ototoxic effects of $Cd^{2+}$ by antioxidnat in auditory cell line, HEI-OC1. Rosmarinic acid is a naturally occurring phenolic compound and also known to possess marked antioxidant properties. We showed that antioxidnat inhibited the the cytochrome c release induced by $Cd^{2+}$. In addition, we showed that the regulatory effect of antioxidnat on apoptosis is through the caspase-9 activation, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation in auditory cells. These results suggested antioxidnat its therapeutic usefulness, against $Cd^{2+}$ induced activation of caspase-9 and ERK.

Morphological and molecular information about two microfilamentous endophytic algae of the Grateloupia lanceolata or Bryopsis sp. from Korea is given. Of two endophytes, Phaeophila dendroides is endophytic in Grateloupia lanceolata. It is green in color and composed of uniseriate branched filaments with long setae. Each cell had several pyrenoids. Undulate or twisted Phaeophila-type hair developed from vegetative cells. Dilabifilum arthropyreniae is endophytic in Bryopsis sp. The frond of this species consists of frequently irregular, branching uniseriate filaments. Each cell had a single pyrenoid without hairs. Sporangia were not observed. The ends of the filaments were curved. In the phylogenetic tree, based on tufA and ITS sequences, these two species are nested in the same clade as Phaeophila dendroides and Dilabifilum arthropyreniae, respectively. In this study, these two species are newly recorded in the Korean marine algal flora, based on the morphological and molecular data.
