The chigger is of importance to humans and animals as an irritating pest and a crucial vector of disease. We observed stylostome formation by larvae of Leptotrombidium pallidum in parasitized striped-field mouse (Apodemus agarius) pinna skin. The stylostome formations were also examined in detail by electron microscopy. The proximal and middle parts of the stylostome were formed as a rod-like structure containing a canal. The stylostome was coated with thick degenerated epidermal cells, and seemed to be formed a hyperplastic epidermis. The stylostome formation may result from an interaction between larval secretions and the host tissue. According to histological and morphological characteristics, the stylostome exhibited considerable inflammation in the epidermis and similar reactivity.

Objectives : We investigated the repeated-dose toxicity of Wenpitang-Hab-Wulingsan(WHW), a Korean traditional medicine prescribed with twelve herbs, which has been used for the treatment of renal disease. Methods : WHW extract prepared by GLP company. WHW was supplemented by gavage at 0, 100, 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day for 13-week consecutive days. We recorded the clinical signs of toxicity, body weight, organ weights, hematology, gross and histological changes in target organs rats and clinical chemistry analysis for all rats. Results : WHW extract at all doses was shown no mortality or abnormal clinical signs in rats during at the observation period. Furthermore, there was no difference in body weight and food-take consumption, organ weight, gross pathological findings, and urine analysis among the groups of rats treated with different doses of WHW extract. The hematological analysis and clinical blood chemistry data were revealed no toxic effects from WHW-treated rats. Conclusions : The results suggest that WHW extract in rats is a wide margin of safety on a acute toxicity.

1. 과산화물가가 90.4mEq/kg인 산화사료에 Vitamin E와 C의 함량을 각각 달리 하여 80일간 Ceroid 예방실험을 행하였다. 2. Ceroid증을 예방하기 위하여 산화사료에 Vitamin C와 E를 첨가한 모든 실험군 및 무첨가한 대조군에서의 성장 비교에서 대조군은 산화사료에 의한 성장 장애가 나타났으나 실험군에서는 정상성장을 보였다. 3. 병리조직학적 관찰에서 대조군은 실험과정 일수에 따라 조직변화가 심하였으나 Vitamin E와 C를 첨가한 실험군별 조직상태는 Vitamin E 1mg/g diet와 Vitamin C 2IU/g diet를 첨가한 실험군에서의 예방효과가 가장 양호하게 나타났다.

Clinical observation were performed on 25 cases of Mediastinal tumors or Cyst, those were admitted and treated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Korea University Hospital, during the 6 years period from March 1973 to March 1979. The following results are obtained. Of 25 cases, 19 patients were males and 6 patients were females. Range of age varied widely from 2 years to 72 years. Approximately 28% were younger than 15 years of age at the time of diagnosis. The common subjective symptoms of the patients were anterior chest pain [36%], coughing [27%], dyspnea and a few incidence of hemoptysis. Diagnostic procedures were posteroanterior and lateral chest roentgenorgrams, Chest tomograms, Brochograms, Esophagograms, Mediastinoscopy, Scalene and Axillary Lymph node biopsy, and Needle aspiration biopsy. In the histological distribution on Mediastinal tumors in order of frequency, Neurogenic tumor 6 cases [25%], Lymphoma 5 cases [21%], Bronchogenic cyst 4 cases [17%], Pericardial cyst 2 cases [8.3%], Teratodermoid tumor 2 cases [8.3%], and each one case of Rhabdomyosarcoma, Seminoma, Cavernous hemangioma, Anthracosis, Tuberculoma were noted respectively. Of 24 cases of the histologically confirmed Mediastinal tumors, 6 cases [24%] were malignant. Thoracotomy for removal of tumor or cyst was performed on 17 cases and offered cure of all benign tumors. In 6 cases of malignant tumors, Chemotherapy with Vincristine, Cyclophosphamide and Prednisolone was given to 1 case Lymphoma. There was no case of postoperative mortality.

${\beta}ig$-h3, is a TGF-${\beta}$-induced gene product, extracellular matrix protein with 68 kDa MW(683 amino acids) and has been known for its possible roles in cell adhesion, spreading, migration and proliferation. To minimize a proteolytic degradation of ${\beta}ig$-h3, ${\beta}ig$-h3 incorporated chitosan sponge was prepared and its effects on fibroblast adhesion and migration were investigated. And its wound healing efficacy was evaluated in deep 2nd degree burn rabbit ear wound model. ${\beta}ig$-h3 enhanced fibroblast adhesion and proliferation. In histological observation, a significant over-proliferation of epidermal regeneration was observed in ${\beta}ig$-h3/chitosan dressing applied wound while epidermal regeneration was not proceeded yet in chitosan only treated wound. ${\beta}ig$-h3/sponge dressing could enhance epidermal regeneration.

The present investigation dealt with observation and experiments concerning the growth and differentiation of hop plant, using the varieties of Cascade(C), Shinshuwase(Sh), and Hallertau(H). The results were as follows: (1) Life cycle of hop plants. The annual growth period of hop plant was devided chiefly into 3 phases, dormant, vegetative and reproductive. (2) Growth of main stem. The hop vine begun to grow in the middle of May and grow vigorousely in the middle and latter of June, then gradually decline or stops at the middle of July and the early of August. (3) Growth of lateral vines. By the statistical analysis, it is judged that the varieties of H and Sh were more grown than that of C. H and Sh were not significant, but H and Sh from C were significant in 5% level. (4) Fresh weight and water content of hop cone. Hop cone in fresh weight of C variety was higher than those of other two varieties and water content of hop cone was decreased with time elapse in three races together. (5) Growing point. Histological view of hop varities in each was different. C showed form of sweet potato, H showed form of round, and Sh showed form of ellipse. (6) Shape of the leaf. C and H were 3 lobes, but Sh is 3∼5 lobes. Generally, the color is dark green. (7) Hop cones. Hop cones are as follows.

Venus clam, Protothaca jedoensis was collected in lune 2003 from Yosu, Korea. The prevalence and infection intensity of Perkinsus was determined by Ray's Fluid thioglycollate medium technique and Choi's 2 M NaOH digestive assay. The prevalence of infection was 80% in Yosu; 54.2% in Taejon and 15.5% in Sachon. Consequently, infection intensity was highest in clams from Yosu (6250${\pm}$8188 Perkinsus cells/g of tissue) whereas lower levels were found in Taejon (5072${\pm}$10862 Perkinsus cells/g of tissue) and in Sachon (2452${\pm}$15300 Perhnsus cells/g of tissue). Histological observation showed that Perkinsus presented in mantle, gills, digestive tubes and gonad of clams. The hemocytic infiltrations and tissue damages were found in heavy Perkinsus-infected clams. Results after immunofluorescence staining with antibody developed from Perkinsus atlanticus suggested that there is closed relationship between Perkinsus found in Venus clam and Manila clam.

We compared the clinical efficacy of LED therapy using 880 nm and 630 nm LED to test collagen accumulations in subcutaneous tissue of mouse after LED irradiation by measuring the quantity of collagen. 880 nm and 630 nm LED was irradiated on the back of ICR mouse given at $10.8J/cm^2$ followed for 30 minutes everyday for 5 weeks. Histological observation was performed by Hematoxylin & Eosin staining and Masson's Trichrome collagen staining. We also used Sircol soluble collagen assay kit for measuring the amounts of collagen in the mouse skin tissue after 1, 3, and 5 weeks post LED irradiation, respectively. Collagen generation was found at subcutaneous tissue, and the quantity of collagen in 880 nm LED group had grown more than that of 630 nm LED group at 5 weeks follow-up later. About 75% more efficacies for collagen generation were found in the group of 5th week of 880nm LED irradiation. The efficacy of 880nm LED could be more useful than 630 nm LED for synthesizing collagens in mouse subcutaneous tissue as time followed.

The influence of triploidization on cell and nucleus size characteristics of the same tissues of erythrocyte, retina, kidney, hepatocyte and midgut epithelium in marine medaka, Oryzias dancena has been determined histologically. Induced triploid fish are produced by cold shock treatments. Likewise, the size of horizontal cell nucleus in inner nuclear layer of retina, ganglion cell nucleus in ganglion cell layer of retina, proximal tubule cell of kidney, hepatocytes and nuclear height of midgut epithelium all appear to be significantly larger than diploid (P<0.05). On the other hand, retina thickness is larger in diploid than induced triploid (P<0.05). Induced triploid shows low density of cell number. Results of this study suggest that same characteristics in the induced triploid exhibiting larger cells and nucleus sizes with fewer number of cells than the diploid can be useful criteria for the distinction between diploid and induced triploid, and also the ploidy level in marine medaka.
