The use of basic fibroblast growth factor which function as potent biologic mediators regulating numerous activities of wound healing has been suggested for the promotion of periodontal regeneration. The mitogenic effects of basic fibroblast growth factor on human periodontal ligament cells and human gingival fibroblasts were evaluated by determining the incorporation of 5-Bromo-2'deoxy-uridine into DNA of the cells in a dose -dependent manner. The cells which were prepared were the primary cultured gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells from human the fourth or sixth subpassages were used in the experiments. The cells which were seeded DMEM contain 10% FBS. The added concentrations of basic fibroblast growth factor were 0.1, 1, 10, 50, $l00{\eta}g/ml$ and basic fibroblast growth factor were added to the quiescent cells for 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. They were labeled with $10{\mu}l/200{\mu}l$ 5Bromo-2'-deoxy-uridine for the last 6 hours of each culture. The results of the five determinants were presented as mean and S.D.. The results were as follows. : The DNA synthetic activity of human gingival fibroblasts was increased dose dependently by basic fibroblast growth factor at 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. The similar mitogenic effects were at the 24 and 48 hours of basic fibroblast growth factor, but the DNA synthetic activity of human gingival fibroblasts generally decreased at 72 hours. The DNA synthetic activity of human periodontal ligament cells was increased dose dependently to $50{\eta}g/ml$ by basic fibroblast growth factor at 24, 48 and 72 hours, but the DNA synthetic activity decreased at $l00{\eta}g/ml$ of each hour. Generally the maximum mitogenic effects were at the 48 hours application of basic fibroblast growth factor. The DNA synthetic activity of human periodontal ligament cells generally decreased lower at 72 hours than at 24, 48 hours the application of basic fibroblast growth factor. In the comparison of DNA synthetic activity between human gingival fibroblasts and human periodontal ligament cells, human periodontal ligament cells had slightly higher proliferation activity than human gingival fibroblasts for a longer time at the high dosage of the basic fibroblast growth factor.In conclusion, basic fibroblast growth factor have important roles in the stimulation of DNA synthesis in human periodontal ligament cells and human gingival fibroblasts, and thus may be useful for clinical applications in periodontal regenerative procedures.

It has been proved that co-cultivation of human neroblastoma cells and human fibroblast cells can enhance nerve cell growth and the production of BDNF in perfusion cultivation. In batch co-cultivation, maximum cell density was increased up to 1.76${\times}$106 viable cells/mL from 9${\times}$105 viable cells/mL of only neuroblastoma cell culture. The growth of neuroblastoma cells was greatly improved by culturing both nerve and fibroblast cells in a perfusion process, maintaining 1.5${\times}$106 viable cells/mL, which was much higher than that form fed-batch cultivation. The nerve cell growth was greatly enhance in both fed-batch and perfusion cultivations while the growth of fibroblast cells was not. It strongly implies that the factors secreted from human fibrobast cells and/or the environments of co-culture system can enhance both cell growth and BDNF secretion. Specific BDNF production rate was not enhanced in co-cultures; however, the production period was increased as the cell growth was lengthened in the co-culture case. Competitive growth between nerve cells and fibroblast cells was not observed in all cases, showing no changes of fibroblast cell growth and only enhancement of the neuroblastoma cell growth and overall BDNF production. It was also found that the perfusion cultivation was the most appropriate process for cultivating two cell lines simultaneously in a bioreactor.

Kimchi showed protective effect from oxidative damage generated by hydrogen peroxide and paraquat. To investigate the major components of kimchi which reduce the cytotoxicity against reactive oxygen species, keratinocyte(A431, epidermoid carcinoma, human) and fibroblast(CCD-986SK, normal control, human) were cultured under oxidative stress condition provoked by paraquat, a superoxide anion generator, and hydrogen peroxide in the absence or presence of kimchi ingredients. Most keratinocyte and fibroblast cells were killed by hydrogen peroxide and paraquat over 1mM concentration, but kimchi ingredients showed protective effects from oxidative damage generated by hydrogen peroxide and onion, among those, garlic showed the most remarkable preventive effect. Most of kimchi ingredients showed protective effect against paraquat, especially leek notably increased cell survival. For fibroblast cells, ginger had the preventive effect against paraquat, especially leek notably increased cell survival. For fibroblast cells, ginger had the preventive effect from cell killing by high dose of hydrogen peroxide, but most ingredients were not effective against paraquat.

The migration and proliferation of periodontal ligament cells are desired goal of periodontal regeneration therapy. PDGF and $TGF-{\beta}1$ are well known to regulate the cell activity of mesenchymal origin cell. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of these growth factors on human gingival fibroblast and periodontal ligament cell actvity, and to identify the regulatory effect of $TGF-{\beta}1$ on the response to PDGF by MIT assay. Human gingival fibroblast and periodontal ligament cells were cultured from extracted teeth for non-periodontal reason. Cultured human gingival fibroblast and periodontal ligament cells in vitro were treated with polyperpetide growth factor PDGF and $TGF-{\beta}1$ in both a dose and time - dependent manner. Cell morphology were determined by inverted microscope and cell acitivity were determined by MIT assay. The result of this study demonstrated that PDGF and $TGF-{\beta}1$ were not changed the morphology of these cell compared with control group. PDGF or $TGF-{\beta}1$ increased cell activity of periodontal ligament cell in dose and time dependent manner but gingival fibroblast were decreased to the level of control group at third day. Additionally, incubation with $TGF-{\beta}1$ addition to PDGF resulted in a enhanced cell activity of PDGF. Therefore, cell acitivty of gingival fibroblast were not changed compared with control group. This stiudy demonstrates that PDGF and $TGF-{\beta}1$ are major mitogens for human periodontal ligament cell in vitro, and $TGF-{\beta}1$ is a regulator of cell activity to PDGF in human gingival fibroblast and periodontal ligament cell.

We have previously shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) miR-760, miR-186, miR-337-3p, and miR-216b stimulate premature senescence through protein kinase CK2 (CK2) downregulation in human colon cancer cells. Here, we examined whether these four miRNAs are involved in the replicative senescence of human lung fibroblast IMR-90 cells. miR-760 and miR-186 were significantly upregulated in replicatively senescent IMR-90 cells, and their joint action with both miR-337-3p and miR-216b was necessary for efficient downregulation of the ${\alpha}$ subunit of CK2 ($CK2{\alpha}$) in IMR-90 cells. A mutation in any of the four miRNA-binding sequences within the $CK2{\alpha}3^{\prime}$-untranslated region (UTR) indicated that all four miRNAs should simultaneously bind to the target sites for $CK2{\alpha}$ downregulation. The four miRNAs increased senescence-associated ${\beta}$-galactosidase (SA-${\beta}$-gal) staining, p53 and $p21^{Cip1/WAF1}$ expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in proliferating IMR-90 cells. $CK2{\alpha}$ overexpression almost abolished this event. Taken together, the present results suggest that the upregulation of miR-760 and miR-186 is associated with replicative senescence in human lung fibroblast cells, and their cooperative action with miR-337-3p and miR-216b may induce replicative senescence through $CK2{\alpha}$ downregulation-dependent ROS generation.

목적 : 유방암 환자의 피부 섬유모세포를 이용한 in vitro 배양 실험을 통하여 16 세포집락 비율 분포의 변화를 관찰하여 16 세포집락 비율과 in vitro 세포 노화 및 섬유모세포 공여자의 in vivo 연령과의 연관성을 조사하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 :유방암 수술을 받은 3명의 환자로부터 얻은 유방부위 피부를 본 실험대상으로 사용하였다. 각 환자의 유방부위 피부로부터 얻은 피부 섬유모세포 표본의 명칭을 C1, C2, C3a 및 C3b로 분류하였으며 각 표본 공여자의 연령은 C1이 44세, C2는 54세, 그리고 C3a 및 C3b는 동일한 공여자로서 연령은 55세였다. 피부 섬유모세포의 단일세포 부유액은 일차조직 배양법으로 얻었으며 100 개의 세포들을 100m1 의 조직배양 flask에 분주 후 37$^{\circ}C$에서 2주 동안 배양하였다. 5개의 flask에서 배양한 피부 섬유모세포의 16 세포집락 비율을 알기 위하여 crystal violet으로 염색한 후 10 배율의 입체현미경을 이용하여 16개 세포 이상으로 구성된 세포집락수를 1개 이상으로 구성된 세포 집락수로 나눈 수치를 16 세포집락 비율로 나타내었으며 각각 5개의 flask에서 얻어진 16 세포집락 비율 평균치를 각 계대배양에 대한 16 세포집락 비율로 나타내었다. C1, C2의 계대배양 횟수는 각각 12회, 17회 였으며 C3a와 C3b는 14회 계대배양 하였다. 결과 : C1, C2, C3a 및 C3b 피부섬유모세포 모두에서 16 세포집락 비율이 계대배양 횟수의 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 집단이배화증가에 따라 감소하였다. 그리고 계대배양 횟수가 증가함에 따라 집단이배화가 증가되는 것이 관찰되었으며 특히 C3a 섬유모세포의 상관계수가 0.954(P=0.0001)로서 가장 강한 상관관계가 있음을 보였다 동일한 지점의 집단이배화에서 16 세포집락 비율이 고연령자인 C3a 공여자보다 저 연령자인 C1 공여자에서 더 높게 나타났다. 결론 : 사람 피부 섬유모세포의 in vitro 배양에서 계대배양 횟수의 증가에 따라 집단이배화는 증가되고, 세포 노화로 인해 16 세포집락 비율은 감소되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 저연령의 피부 섬유모세포일수록 집단이배화 증가에 따른 16 세포집락 비율 감소가 고연령의 경우보다 완만하였다. 따라서 피부 섬유모세포 in vitro 배양에서 관찰되는 16 세포집락 비율은 in vitro 세포노화의 지표로서 유용하며 또한 피부 섬유모세포 공여자의 연령 평가에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The production of interleukin-1(IL-1)and nitric oxide(NO) by cultured fibroblast cells of human nasal turbinate was revealed by biological assay respectively. The cells were incubated for various periods of time in the presence of staphyloccocal toxic shock syndrome toxin-1(TSST-1) and house dust mite(Dermatophagoides farinae, HDM), and the culture supernatants were harvested. There was a little difference in the activities of IL-1beta and the amount of NO produced by the cells when stimulated with 0.002-0.1$\mu$g/ml of TSSTO-1 and 0.02-1$\mu$g/ml of HDM. The shapes of the time course curves for the production of IL-1beta and NO by the cells were different. Groups stimulated with TSST-1 or HDM produced more IL-beta in 2 h than no exposure group(Control). A certain mixed group(TSST-1, 10ng+mite, 100 ng) continued to produce IL-1beta highly throughout the entire incubation period. The cells stimulated with TSST-1 or HDM produced more NO in 2 h and 6 h than that produced in the end of incubation(48 h). Also, the mixed groups were generally similar. There results suggest that induction of IL-1beta by a certain mixed condition(TSST-1+mite) in fibroblast cell in vivo may play a role in inflammation.

The purpose of this study was to determine the role of substituted groups in phenolic compounds to develop an anticancer agent having strong cytotoxicity against cancer cells but weak against normal cells. The phenolic compounds used in this study were gallic acid and ferulic acid with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, syringic acid with hydroxyl, carboxyl and methoxy groups, and pyre-gallol with hydroxyl groups. Cytotoxicities of these compounds were evaluated by MTT assay for cell viability and XTT assay for cell adhesion activity in normal human skin fibroblast (Detroit 551) and human skin melanoma (SK-MEL-3) cells. Syringic acid, gallic acid and ferulic acid decreased the cell viability and cell adhesion activity in SK-MEL-3 cells but not in Detroit 551 cells while pyrogallol decreased in both cells. The susceptibility of cell viability based on the $IC_{50}$ values of MTT assay in Detroit 551 cells was in the following order: pyrogallol > gallic acid > ferulic acid > syringic acid, while it was in SK-MEL-3 cells: Syringic acid > progallol > ferulic acid > gallic acid. These results suggest that carboxyl and methoxy groups of these compounds play an important role in selectivity of cytotoxicity in normal and cancer cells.
