  • Eurasian eagle owl (Bubo bubo kiautschensis) is a natural monument (No. 324) and is also classified as an endangered wildlife grade II the Ministry of Environment of Korea. Eurasian eagle owl is threatened by the human being. But the efficient rescue and treatment for Eurasian eagle owl are still problematic, due to lack of basic data. In this study, to obtain basic resources for establishing more efficient rescue system, we held a physical examination and measured size physical part. In addition, we analyzed blood sample and feces samples and autopsy. We conduct the physical examination with measuring tapes and scales for 16 live features and 11 dead features. After inhalation anesthesia take the blood samples from wing vein. Blood samples are analyzed in hematologic and chemistric methods. We collected the feces through individual floor of cages from 12 live features and conducted the feces analysis. Autopsy was conducted for 11 dead samples. In physical examination, the mean body weight and total length of live features was 2.26${\pm}$0.35kg, 61${\pm}$2.38cm, the mean body weight and total length of dead features was 1.57${\pm}$0.51kg, 59.31${\pm}$3.51cm. Mean PCV was 46.57${\pm}$4.97%, while mean TPP was 3.49${\pm}$0.57g/dL. In feces sample analysis, 9 of 12 owls(75%) were infested by gastrointestinal helminths. The infection rates were: Trematoda (41.7%), Capilaria sp.(66.7%), acanthocephalans (25%). In autopsy, we confirmed 11 features were infested by duplicated infection of more than 2 helminths. Result of this study will be used for establishing reference range for physical features, blood analysis in Eurasian eagle owl. Therefore, to obtain basic resources for establishing more efficient rescue system, we have to make long-term conservation plans for Eurasian eagle owl.

  • Recently it was reported that Insertion/Deletion polymorphism in the gene coding for Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) is associated with human capacity for physical performance. This study was performed to genotyping of the ACE gene to determine the correlation between elite endurance performance and ACE I/D gene polymorphism. DNA sample was obtained from peripheral blood, hair roots and mouth epithelial cell in 739 general population and 200 elite athletic performance students. The ACE gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using allele specific oligonucleotide primers. 155, 525 bp and 237 bp PCR products indicating the presence of insertion(I) and deletion(D) alleles, respectively, were clearly resolved after electrophoresis on a 2% agarose gel with ethidium bromide. Of the 200 elite athletic performance population subjects, 68(34%) showed ACE genotype 11,100(50%) genotype ID and 32(16%) genotype DD. Of the 739 general population subjects, 259(35.1%) showed ACE genotype 11,363(49.1%) genotype ID and 117(15.8%) genotype DD. Therefore ACE I/D gene polymorphism was not associated with human capacity for physical performance.(p>0.05)

  • 인체의 다양한 기능을 증진시키는 작용을 하는 것으로 알려진 IGF-I의 생체내 분비를 촉진시키기 위해 천연 생약재성분으로 구성된 YGF251을 개발하였고 YGF251의 효능을 측정하였다. 이중 맹검 시험 방식으로 40세에서 70세 사이의 성인 남녀 31명을 대상으로 IGF-I을 비롯하여 체중, 혈압, 간기능 검사 및 신장기능 검사를 실시하였다. YGF251 및 위약 투석 후의 IGF-I 함량변화에 대한 대응표본 검정결과는 YGF251 투여군에서 투여 전에는 245.6 ng/mL 이었는데 1개월 투여 후에는 269.3 ng/mL, 2개월 투여 후에는 275.6 ng/mL으로 유의하게 증가하였다 (p<0.05). 한편 위약 투여군에서는 투여 전에는 280.0 ng/mL이었으나 1개월 투여 후에는 239.2 ng/mL, 2개월 투여 후에는 230.2 ng/mL으로 유의하게 감소하는 결과를 보였다(p<0.05). 혈중 insulin함량은 실험군의 경우 YGF251 을 1개월 투여후 평균치로써 2배 정도의 증가를 보였으며 위약 투여군에서는 36% 정도 감소된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 YGF251투여에 의한 체중 및 혈압의 변화는 거의 나타나지 않았다. YGF251 투여에 의해 나타날수 있는 간기능 및 신장기능 변화를 관찰 하기 위해 여러 항목들의 수치는 측정 오차 범위내에서의 변화만을 나타내었다.

  • 비타민 A의 활성 대사물인 비타민 A arid(retinoir acid, Rh)를 사람의 간 조직내에서 처음으로 검출하고, 측정하는 방법을 고안하였다. Reverse phase HPLC에 gradient elution을 사용하는 이 방법은 Multiwavelength 검출법을 이용하여 RA, 비타민 A, 비타민 E 및 카로티노이드를 모두 약 30mg정도의 시료로부터 검출할 수 있었다. HPLC 분석에 소요되는 시간은 시료당 20분으로 상당히 신속하며 또 예민하다. 간 조직내의 총비타민 A량에 대한 Rh의 비율은 비타민 A의 축적량에 관계없이 일정한 편으로 약 $2.4\pm0.2%로$ 나타났다. RA의 간 조직내의 검출은 RA가 비타민 A의 체내 대사산물임을 다시 한번 확인시켰으며, 그 함량에 대한 정보는 총비타민 A량과 함께 비타민 A 영양 상태 판정에 보다 좋은 지표가 될 것이다. 특히 간 조직의 needle biopsy가 필요한 질병 상태의 경우, 비타민 A의 기능적 영양 상태판정을 가능하게 하여 질병의 진단 및 처치에 도움이 되리라 사료된다.

  • Glucose is a common medical analyte measuring in human serum or blood samples. The development of a primary method is necessary for the establishment of traceability in measurements. We have developed an isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry as a primary method for the measurement of glucose in human serum. Glucose and glucose-$^{13}C_6$ in sample were ionized in ESI negative mode and monitored at mass transfers of m/z 179/89 and 185/92 in MRM, respectively. Glucose was separated on $NH_2P$-50 2D column, and the mobile phase was 20 mM $NH_4OAc$ in 30% acetonitrile/70% water. Verification of this method was performed by the comparison with NIST SRMs. Our results agreed well with the SRM values. We have developed two levels of glucose serum certified reference material using this method and distributed them to the clinical laboratories in Korea as samples for proficiency testings. The expended uncertainty was about 1.2% on 95% confidence level. In proficiency testings, the results obtained from the clinical laboratories showed about 3.6% and 3.9% RSD to the certified values. Primary method can provide the traceability to the field laboratories through proficiency testings or certified reference materials.

  • Objectives : Polygoni Multiflori Radix (PMR), the roots of Polygonum multiflorum Thunberg, is used to nourish the blood and yin and used for preventing premature greying of the hair. There are some articles on its preventing effects on the melanogenesis. However, there is no report about its effects on the collagen and elastin. The present study was designed to investigate its effects on collagen metabolism and elastase activity. Methods : The effects of PMR on type I procollagen production and collagenase activity in human normal fibroblasts Hs68 after UVB (312 nm) irradiation were measured by ELISA method. Cells were pretreated with the PMR for 24 hours prior to UVB irradiation. After UVB irradiation, cells were retreated with the sample and incubated for additional 24 hours. The amount of collagen type I was measured with a procollagen type I C-peptide assay kit. The activity of collagenase was measured with a MMP-1 human biotrak ELISA system. The elastase activities after treatment of PMR were measured as well. Results : In the present study, the collagen production was not increased. However, the increased collagenase activity after UVB damage was significantly recovered to $50.2{\pm}14.5%$, $8.2{\pm}3.1%$, and $10.0{\pm}3.3%$ (10, 30, and $100{\mu}g/ml$). The elastase activities (10, 100, and $1000{\mu}g/ml$) significantly reduced to $75.2{\pm}5.2%$, $40.3{\pm}1.2%$, and $27.0{\pm}1.9%$, respectively. Conclusion : PMR showed the inhibitory effects on collagenase and elastase activity. These results suggest that PMR may have potential as an anti-aging ingredient in cosmetic herbal treatment.

  • Platelets are anuclear discoid-shaped blood cells with key roles in human body. To understand the mechanisms of their activation process, it is required to have analytical imaging techniques capable of acquiring platelet images under fully hydrated conditions. Herein, for the first time, we demonstrate the capability of synchrotron-based transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM) to study platelets (resting and ADP activated) under hydrated and air-dried conditions. To confirm the biological imaging capability of TXM, fixed platelets were imaged and compared with whole mount electron microscopy (EM) images. TXM provided morphological information with sufficient spatial resolution with simple and quick sample preparation procedure. We also observed temporal changes during the platelet activation, which initially had a discoid shape (0 s), formed pseudopodia (30 s) and generated a network of fibrin (5 min). Our results clearly demonstrate the potential of TXM technique to study fully hydrated biological samples under in situ conditions.
