Rice straw is an important roughage resource for ruminants in many rice-producing countries. In this study, a rice brittle mutant (BM, mutation in OsCesA4, encoding cellulose synthase) and its wild type (WT) were employed to investigate the effects of a cellulose synthase gene mutation on rice straw morphological fractions, chemical composition, stem histological structure and in situ digestibility. The morphological fractions investigation showed that BM had a higher leaf sheath proportion (43.70% vs 38.21%, p<0.01) and a lower leaf blade proportion (25.21% vs 32.14%, p<0.01) than WT. Chemical composition analysis showed that BM rice straw was significantly (p<0.01) higher in CP (crude protein), hemicellulose and acid insoluble ash (AIA) contents, but lower in dry matter (DM), acid detergent fiber (ADFom) and cellulose contents when compared to WT. No significant difference (p>0.05) was detected in neutral detergent fiber (NDFom) and ADL contents for both strains. Histological structure observation indicated that BM stems had fewer sclerenchyma cells and a thinner sclerenchyma cell wall than WT. The results of in situ digestion showed that BM had higher DM, NDFom, cellulose and hemicellulose disappearance at 24 or 48 h of incubation (p<0.05). The effective digestibility of BM rice straw DM and NDFom was greater than that of WT (31.4% vs 26.7% for DM, 29.1% vs 24.3% for NDFom, p<0.05), but the rate of digestion of the slowly digested fraction of BM rice straw DM and NDF was decreased. These results indicated that the mutation in the cellulose synthase gene could improve the nutritive value of rice straw for ruminants.

어류의 피부는 각종 환경성 저해인자에 대한 최외측 방어장벽으로써, 어체내의 생리적인 기능을 유지하는 데 중요한 역할을 담당하기 때문에, 피부의 상태는 각종 질병에서 매우 중요하다 하겠다. 어류는 형태학적으로나 생리학적으로 수중의 환경에 적응되어 있기 때문에, 육상 포유동물과는 또다른 다수의 어류 특이의 조직학적 소견을 갖고 있다. 그러므로, 피부에서 일어나는 병리조직학적인 소견에 대한 보다 정확한 해석을 가하기 위하여는 이러한 조직학적 특성을 잘 이해해 둘 필요성이 있다. 정상 환경하의 어류피부는 육상 고등동물에 비하여 한계적 장벽으로써 그 생리학적 요구에 보다 미묘히 적응되어 있다. 그러나, 이러한 피부의 적응상은 오히려 인공적인 사육시설이나, 수질의 오염등에 의하여 더욱 피부의 항상성은 쉽게 파괴될 수 있다. 피부색조의 변화, 궤양등과 같은 소견은 임상적으로 빈번히 접하게 되지만, 이와 같은 가시적 병변이 유도되기 까지는 다양한 생리학적 또는 병리학적 반응이, 피부의 각층에서 일어날 수 있다. 지금까지, 경골어류의 피부에 대한 조직학적 정보를 기술한 참고서는 그 수에 있어 빈약할 뿐 아니라, 정보의 체력적 정리가 부족하다. 게다가, 병리조직학적 기술도 체계적인 실험적 연구에 의하기 보다는 임상 병리학적인 소견에 근거 기술하고 있는 것이 대부분이다. 그러므로, 여기에서는, 새로운 조직학적 정보를 기술하기 보다는, 지금까지 정설화된 피부에 대한 조직학적 및 병리조직학적 소견의 일반을 모아 정리하고자 하였다.

Background: For normalization of displaced anatomical structure by large cyst, two-step procedure (decompression and enucleation afterward) has been recommended. However, the histological transformation after cystotomy for decompression was shown frequently in secondary enucleation. Therefore, analyses about effects and histological changes after decompression have been necessary. Methods: 48 cases diagnosed as large odontogenic cyst in the jaw and treated by decompression and secondary enucleation were retrospectively analyzed in clinical, rediographical, and histological aspects. Results: In dentigerous cyst, decompression was much useful. Impacted permanent teeth were erupted and reduction rate was higher than that of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and apical periodontal cyst. In OKC, among the 29 cases, 11 cases showed no-keratosis, proliferation and rete-ridge elongation after decompression. 4 cases showed no-keratosis, only. 7 cases showed orthokeratosis and rete-ridge elongation and 6 cases showed reteridge elongation, only. 1 case had no change. And the recurrence rate for OKCs was 10.3%. For all odontogenic cysts in this study, dysplasia was not found in cystic lining after decompression. Conclusions: This study implied that decompression for large odontogenic cyst was useful treatment modality because it was conservative treatment and recurrence rate was low although long treatment period was required.

This study was conducted for the histological observation of the infundibulum of the oviduct of the laying Korean native pheasants. The results are as follows : 1. The infundibular wall is composed of the epithelium, lamina propria, muscle layer(inner circular and outer longitudinal muscle), and serosa. The funnel lip is divided into the inner, and outer lip of the epithelium and muscle layer. 2. The epithelium of the funnel lip and most region of the cranial part of the funnel are composed of ciliated columnar cells. In the surface and lateral part of the folds, ciliated cells and non-ciliated secretory cells tend to alternate in the epithelium of the caudal funnel and the necks, but are also found in groups of the simple cuboidal epithelium at the bases of the grooves between the ridges and tubular glands found in the subepithelium. 3. The secretory material of the non-ciliated secretory cills contains PAS-positive and alcian blue-positive granules, and these materials show purple colour in the basic fuchsin-methylene blue stain. 4. The cells of the glandular groove and tubular gland of the neck portion of the oviduct mostly show weak PAS-positive, and alcian blue stain negative reaction. The tubular gland cells of the infndibulum contain pink of purple colour granules, and without reaction in the anterior neck portion of the infundibulum in basic fuchsin and methylene blue stain.

The purpose of the study was to investigate effects of Low intensity cardiac rehabilitation, using a treadmill, on the myocardial structure. We identified the effects by analyzing changes in the rats' weights and the results of biopsies. Twenty Sprague-Dawley male rats, 50 weeks old, were randomly divided into the exercise group and the control group. myocardial infarction(MI) was induced by ligaturing their left anterior descending artery. After the acute MI induction, two rats of each group began to fall dead, therefore, eight of each group completed at the end of the experiment. We used treadmills for animals for the exercise group. This exercise group performed 30 minutes of exercise five times per week for six weeks, while the control group did not perform any exercise. No statistically significant differences in weight were found in within group comparison and between group comparison. Furthermore, we observed histological changes in the myocardium using Hematoxylin & Eosin and Masson's trichrome staining in both groups. Low-intensity exercise inhibited myocardial fibrosis, may serve as a reference in the cardiopulmonary field, which plays a role in rehabilitating patients with cardiac disorders, including acute MI.

Objectives : This study was aimed at investigating liver protection mechanism of bear bile juice (Fel Ursi)by inducing liver toxicity through $CCl_4$ in mice and evaluated histological and serological findings. Methods : Experiment groups was categorized into untreated normal group, $CCl_4$ treated control group, and orally administered bear bile juice experiment group. At the termination of experiment, gross examination of the liver as well as histological findings, and Total protein, Albumin, Total bilirubin, Direct bilirubin SGOT, SGPT, and ALP contents in the serum were evaluated. Results : 1. For gross examination and histological findings, $CCI_4$ treated control group showed destroyed lobular structure, increased fibrosis, as well as hepatic cirrhosis. For the group treated with bear bile juice, the lobular structure suffered less damage, and showed lower level of fibrosis and liver cirrhosis compared to the control group. 2. For serum analysis, Total protein and Albumin were significantly increased in the bear bile juice experiment group than the control group. Total bilirubin and Direct bilirubin didn't show significant differences between the two groups. SOOT, SGPT, and ALP were significantly decreased in the normal and bear bile juice experiment groups compared to the control group. Conclusion : Taken together, bear bile juice can be effectively used for recovering the liver functions and further researches must be conducted to verify the efficacies of bear bile juice.

Age-related changes in larynx can have a direct impact on voice quality and general comfort level. Observations of vocal aging have spanned perceptual, acoustic, aerodynamic, physical, electromyographic (EMG) and histological levels. Evidence of differential vocal aging in relation to gender and physical condition has been reported. Perceptual, acoustic, aerodynamic, kinematic, EMG and histological data document age-related changes in laryngeal structure and function with advancing age. These changes contribute to a functional age-related impact of vocal hypofunction or compensatory hyperfunction. This review will focus on the current understanding of the clinical and cellular changes in the larynx that lead to presbyphonia.
