The present study was designed to clarify whether scuba diving at 5 meters of seawater influences cerebral hemodynamics, hematological and biochemical variables. Twenty healthy young men well trained scuba diving participated in this study. The blood flow velocity in the right and left middle cerebral arteries (L-MCAV and R-MCAV), blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), CBC and differential count, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), biochemical variables, D-dimer and interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels were determined before, immediately after scuba diving for 30 min, and after 30 min of rest (Pre-scuba, Scuba and R-30m, respectively). L-MCAV and R-MCAV tended to increase, but the only significant increase was in L-MCAV in Scuba. SBP and HR significantly declined in R-30m compared with those of Pre-scuba and the Scuba. IL-8 levels were elevated in Scuba and R-30m compared with that of Pre-scuba. In Scuba and R-30m, hematological variables except PT and biochemical parameters excluding glucose and lactic acid did not significantly changed in comparison with those of Pre-scuba. PT level at Scuba and glucose level at R-30m significantly declined in Scuba, while lactate level at R-30m increased compared with each in Pre-scuba. However, PT level at Scuba was within a normal range. These results suggest that scuba diving at 5 m of seawater for 30 min has no adverse effects, is safe and useful for improving health. However, further study must be performed to clarify the mechanism of elevated IL-8 level following scuba diving.

Blood test is a useful tool in establishing medical treatment for livestock. It provides information such as disease diagnosis, treatment effects, prognostic judgment, and health status. This study compared the value of erythrocytes and leukocytes among conventional, transgenic miniature, and transgenic conventional pigs aged six months to 24 months. Further, it analyzed the aspects of hematological value changes according to the pigs' ages. As a result, the number of red blood cells (RBC), which include hemoglobin, and hematocrit, and the number of white blood cells (WBC), which include neutrophils, and lymphocyte, were high among transgenic miniature pigs, compared with the conventional and transgenic conventional pigs. Conventional pigs showed similar values of RBC and WBC regardless of transgenesis. In comparing their age, the RBC decreased as the age increased compared with the pigs among all the three groups aged of 6~12 months. On the other hand, WBC and neutrophils showed no significant difference regardless of different ages among all the three groups. However, various counts in RBC and WBC were mostly found to be higher in each age in transgenic miniature pigs than in conventional and transgenic conventional pigs. The results of this study show that the values of RBC and WBC were generally higher in transgenic miniature pigs than in conventional and transgenic conventional pigs. Based on this research, hematological values can be widely used in diagnosing diseases or checking the health status of transgenic pigs that are used as disease models, organ transplant source and alike.

Peripheral bood stem cell collection (PBSCC), including peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT), has been utilized worldwide as a very beneficial treatment method instead of allogenic Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) because it has many advantages such as rapid bone marrow engraftment and hematopoietic recovery, easy and safe accessibility and lower risk of rejection compared with allogenic BMT. In order to identify most the observable parameter in PBSCC, we analyzed various hematological parameters before and after PBSCC, and evaluated the correlation between the time of bone marrow engraftment and the number of CD34+ cells. Thirteen patients, who underwent 54 PBSCCs from January, 2003 to August, 2004 at Chungnam National University Hospital due to various systemic neoplasms, were analyzed in aspects of various hematological parameters including CD34+ cells using by Flow Cytometry (FCM). PBSCC harvests are described below: Mononuclear cells (MNC) $2.3{\pm}1.4{\times}10^8/kg$ and CD34+ cells $0.63{\pm}0.35{\times}10^6/kg$ on average, respectively. There was a statistical significance in Hb and Hct before and after PBSCC, but not in WBC and platelet counts. The period to reach the hematological bone marrow engraftment was 13.4(10~21) days and 19.5(11~38) days according to the criteria of absolute neutrophile counts (ANC) ${\geq}500/uL$ and platelet counts ${\geq}50,000/{\mu}L$ in peripheral blood, respectively. There was a significant correlation between the numbers of CD34+ cell and ANC (p<0.05), and a borderline significance between MNC and ANC (p=0.051). We found that a group of patients, who were infused with CD34+ cells more than $3.5{\times}10^6/kg$, reached more rapidly the period of bone marrow engraftment in platelet counts (p=0.040). This present study suggested that Hb and Hct were the most useful parameters and should be closely monitored before and after PBSCC, that a PBSCT with the dosage of more than $3.5{\times}10^6/kg$ of CD34+ cells was needed to perform successful bone marrow engraftment, and additionally that platelet counts could be more useful in indicating bone marrow engraftment than ANC.

To elucidate pathogenesis of bovine leukemia virus(BLV) in Korean native goats, the goats experimentally infected with BLV were studied especially for the aspects of infectivity and hematological changes. The experimental goats were examined for 27 months by agar-gel immunodiffusion(AGID) test and syncytium formation assay. During this period, changes of total leucocyte, absolute Iymphocyte and atypical Iymphocyte were examined, and the distribution of surface immunoglobulin ( sIg ) -bearing cells and rosette forming cell (RFC) in the peripheral Iymphocyte were also investigated. By indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) and complement dependent antibody cytotoxicity (CDAC) assay using monoclonal antibody(Mab) against bovine leukosis tumor-associated anti-gen(BL-TAA), changes of BL-TAA positive Iymphocyte in peripheral blood were measured. The results obtained through the experiment were summarized as follows. 1. Antibody titers were measured by AGID using gP51 and P24 antigens. The animals were serologically converted at 2 months post-inoculation(pi) in gP51 antigen, whereas sero-converted at 4 months pi in P24 antigen. In comparison with antibody titers for gP51, P24 antigen showed lower titers throughout the trial period. 2. The peripheral lymphocytes from all of the infected goats, as co-cultivated with F8l cells manifested syncytial formation at 4 months pi. 3. On counting total leucocyte, Iymphocyte and atypical Iymphocyte, two out of four infected goats showed normal distribution, while No 2 of the remaining two revealed temporal and No 3, Persistant increasing number of the cells. 4. The optimal condition of rosette formation of the peripheral Iymphocyte of normal Korean native goats was shown in the sheep erythrocyte treated with 0.1M AET for 30 nun at $37^{\circ}C$. When the Iymphocytes were treated in nylon wool column, the number of sIg-bear-ing cell were increased in the nylon wool adherent cells, but RFC was increased in the non-adherent cells. Of the infected goats, No 2 and No 3 showed significantly increasing number of sIg-bearing cells at 18 months pi. 5. The Iymphocytes of No 2 and No 3 goats reacted positively in IFA using Mab against BL-TAA at 12 months pi and 18 months pi, respectively. In CDAC test, all of four infected goats revealed positive reaction at 24 months pi. The higher positive rates were observed in No 2 and No 3 as compared with the remainders.

상황버섯(Phellinus linteus)은 건강 증진 및 질병의 치료를 목적으로 널리 사용되는 약용버섯으로서 항산화효과와 항암효과를 비롯한 다양한 생물학적 활성을 갖는다. 상황버섯은 주로 추출물이나 분말의 형태로 복용되고 있으며, 최근 분쇄기법의 발달로 초미세분말 형태의 제품이 상용화되면서 식이 안전성에 대한 연구의 필요성이 제기되었다. 본 연구는 상황버섯 초미세분말과 일반 미세분말을 동물에게 먹인 후 입자의 크기에 따른 식이안전성을 평가하기 위해 실시되었다. 부피평균에 의한 입도분석 결과, 상황버섯 초미세분말(SPL)과 미세분말(FPL) 입자의 평균지름은 각각 11.8 ${\mu}m$와 216.1 ${\mu}m$였고, d (0.5)는 각각 5.5 ${\mu}m$와 147.9 ${\mu}m$였다. 동물의 체중, 사료 섭취량 및 각 기관의 무게를 관찰한 결과 SPL군은 정상군(N)이나 FPL군과 비교하여 통계학적 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 혈액학 및 생화학적 검사에서는 ALT(N vs. FPL, P<0.001)와 BUN(N vs. FPL, P<0.01; N vs. SPL, P<0.01)이 정상군과 비교하여 차이를 보였으나 FPL군과 SPL군 사이의 유의성은 발견되지 않았으며, 그 밖의 다른 검사항목들은 모두 정상범위 내에 포함되었다. 또한 조직학적 검사 결과에서도 비정상적인 소견은 관찰되지 않았다. 이 연구 결과는 초미세 가공된 상황버섯을 경구투여할 경우 혈액학, 생화학, 조직학적인 측면에서 동물에게 유해하지 않다는 것을 말해준다. 그러나 다량의 초미세입자가 소화기와 장기간 접촉할 경우 일어날 수 있는 조직학적 유해성에 대한 심도 깊은 연구는 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Gram-negative septicemia, which continues to be a serious clinical problem, is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Endotoxin of gram-negative bacteria is a pivotal pathogen of sepsis. To understand the effect of endotoxin on hematological aspect and the time course in early childhood, this study was designed with experimental septic model of young rabbits (8 week-old). Rabbits were divided into control (n=7) and endotoxin group (0.50 mg/kg of endotoxin). The endotoxin group was subdivided into six groups by the sampling times: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hr-group (E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{12}$, E-G$_{24}$, E-G$_{48}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$, each n=7). The evaluation of CBC, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen concentration, coagulation factors and D-dimer were taken from the bloods. The number of leukocytes was lower in E-G$_{3}$ and E-G$_{6hrs}$ (due to pantocytopenia), whereas it was higher in E-G$_{24}$ and E-G$_{48}$ (due to neutrophilia and/or lymphophilia) than in control group (P<0.05). Platelet counts in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{12}$, E-G$_{24}$ and E-G$_{48hrs}$ were lower than those of control group (P<0.05). Normoblast counts in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{12}$, E-G$_{24}$ and E-G$_{48hrs}$ were higher than those of control group (p<0.01). APTT in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{12}$, E-G$_{24}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$ were longer while PT in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{48}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$ were higher than those of control group (p<0.05). Fibrinogen concentrations were lower in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$ and E-G$_{12}$ but higher in E-G$_{48}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$ than those of control (p<0.05). Intrinsic coagulation factors (XII, XI, IX, VIII) in all endotoxin groups were significantly lower than those of control group (p<0.05). Extrinsic coagulation factor (X, VII, V, II) were lower in E-G$_{3}$, E-G$_{6}$, E-G$_{12}$ and E-G$_{24hrs}$ whereas they were higher in E-G$_{48}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$ than in control group (p<0.05). D-dimer concentrations in E-G$_{48}$ and E-G$_{72hrs}$ were higher than those of control group (P<0.001). We concluded that endotoxin led to extensive hematological disturbances including disseminated intravascular coagulation in the young rabbits and that this pathologic condition in the infant and childhood groups will cause the grave results.

The purpose of this study is to determine the changes of cytokines and immune cells in blood in castrated Hanwoo. The cytokine production and the number of immune cells were determined by collecting blood from jugular vein before castration and on 1, 7, and 28 days then after. Results of the hematological test showed that the number of leukocyte tend to increase after castration, and it significantly decreased on day 7 and day 28 (P<0.05). Lymphocytes decreased significantly on day 1 and 7 (P<0.05), and then recovered as in neutrophils on day 28. The levels of serum testosterone, TNF-a, IL-6, and anti-inflammatory IL-10 significantly decreased (P<0.05) after castration. There was also a decrease in IL-2, $IFN-{\gamma}$, and IL-4 but showed no significant difference when compared to intact ones. These results suggest that testosterone-deficiency does not affect the number of immune cells in blood, but has a close relationship with cytokine production.

Durlng various experiments and investigations with antigrowth virus, I studied especially the infective and antiinfective process of it in small animals, and have got following results: 1. The rabbits are easily infected with this virus, having following five stages; incubation period of 2 to 3 days, stage of fever for 2 to 4 day, transient anemic stage, transient fcteric stage and stage of lasting iron-precipitation in the spleen. 2. According to the appearance of icteruis, I have divided the rabbits into following three groups, the first gorup, weighting less than 1000g, died after appearance of icterus, the second group, weighting 1000 to 1500 g. recoy ered after appearance of icterus, and the third group, weighting more than 1500 g. recovered without the appearance of jaundice. 3. In hematological study, marked decrease in R. B. C. and Hb were recognized but various leucocytes except lymphocytes slightly increased. 4. In pathological study, the spleen exhibited marked swelling with abundent blood and indistinct border between trabeculae and pulps at the initial stage of icterus and notable atrophy at the end stage of it. There are few iron-cells in the spleen histologically at the initial stage, but they increased in number with granuar appearance at the end stage. In the first group of rabbits above mentionel, the iron-cells increase suddenly with the death of animal and show diffuse precipitation of iron. The liver and indey have defferent aspects in proportion to icterus. If icterus appears, they show markel changes with turbidity and necrosis, but without icterus they present only slight changes. 5. The neutralining antibody is easily proved in the immunized rabbits for about one year. 6. The passive immunity has the defense immunability until 10\ulcorner 7. Gunia pigs are easily infected with this virus and get the immunity. On fowls this virus can be kept in the blood for about ten days by various inoculating methods, and the fowls obtain the defensive ability by reinoculation, but are unable to succeed this ability from generation to generation. 8. when young swine are infected with this virus, their growth are disturbed and result in atrophied swine. It is therofor presumed that the etiology of the antigrowth of these atrophied swine is similar morphological and functional changes observed in the above rabbits.
