A recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO), expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, is glycosylated at Asn 24, Asn 38, Asn 83, and Ser 126. After release of the N-linked carbohydrate chains by $peptide-N^{4}-(N-acetyl-{\beta}-glucosaminyl)$ asparagine amidase F, the oligosaccharides were analyzed by FACE (Fluorophore-Assisted Carbohydrate Electrophoresis). The O-linked carbohydrate chain was separated by hydrazine, and analyzed by FACE. The monosacccharide composition of recombinant EPO showed man nose, fucose, galactose, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylneuraminic acid, and a trace of N-acetylgalactosamine, which are typical monosaccharides in the glycoproteins from the CHO cell. Sequences of N-linked and O-linked oligosaccharides were determined. The structure and composition of oligosaccharides attached to recombinant human EPO, expressed in the CHO cell, are identical to the reported oligosaccharide structure in human EPO isolated from urine.

The aim of this study was to examine the trend of ovary cancer incidence from 1999 to 2010 in China and predict the burden up to 2020. Crude incidence, age specific incidence and age-adjusted incidence rates were calculated. Joinpoint regression was performed to obtain estimated annual percentages and Bayesian age-period-cohort modeling was used to predict the incidence rate until the year 2020. In China, the crude rate of ovary cancer was 7.91/100,000 and the age-adjusted rate was 5.35/100,000 overall during period 1999-2010. The rates in urban regions were higher than in rural regions. A significant rising trend during 1999-2006 was followed by a drop during 2006-2010 in age-adjusted rates for urban females. In contrast, constant rise was observed in rural women. The decrease in ovary cancer of urban areas tended to be restricted to women aged 50 years and younger. In contrast, increases of ovary cancer in rural areas appeared in virtually all age groups. Although the age-adjusted incidence rate for ovary cancer was predicted to be reduced after year 2011, the crude rate was likely to be relative stable up to 2020. The burden of ovary cancer in China will continue to be relative stable due to the aging population.

To enhance the performance of a serum-free medium (SFM) for human thrombopoietin (hTPO) production in suspension cultures of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells, several low-cost hydrolysates such as yeast hydrolysate (YH), soy hydrolysate, wheat gluten hydrolysate and rice hydrolysate were tested as medium additives. Among various hydrolysates tested, the positive effect of YH on hTPO production was most significant. When 5 g/L YH was added to SFM, the maximum hTPO concentration in batch culture was 40.41 ${\mu}g/mL$, which is 11.5 times higher than that in SFM without YH supplementation. This enhanced hTPO production in YH-supplemented SFM was obtained by the combined effect of enhanced $q_{hTPO}$ and increased culture longevity. In addition YH supplementation did not affect in vivo biological activity of hTPO. Taken together, the results obtained demonstrate the potential of YH as a medium additive for hTPO production in serum-free suspension cultures of rCHO cells.

Human cytochrome B5 (CYB5) was coexpressed with cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2), NADPH-CYP450 reductase (CYPR) and Ν-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The expression of four proteins was determined by Western blot analyses. The introduction of cDNAs to CHO cells were transduced via retroviral vectors. The cytotoxicity assay of 2-aminoanthracene (2-AA) and aflatoxin B$_1$were approximately 4-fold more sensitive than CYB5 free cells.(omitted)

For a continuous expression of human cytochrome p450 3A5 (CYP3A5) and NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CYPR) proteins, bicistronic construct (CYP3A5BC-LNCX2) was made using internal ribosome entry site (IRES). As for mammalian cell expression, we used pLNCX2 retroviral vector; and using calcium phosphate, plasmid transfer was achieved in 293GPG cell and transduced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell.(omitted)

Pathogenic Salmonella typhimurium can invade the intestinal epithelium and cause a wide range of diseases including gastroenteritis and bacteremia in human and animals. To identify the genes involved in the infection, the invasion determinant was obtained from S. typhimurium 82/6915 and was subcloned into pGEM-7Z. A subclone DHl (pSV6235) invaded HEp-2 and Chinese hamster ovary epithelial cells and contained a 4.4 kb fragment of S. typhimurium genomic region. Compared with the host strain E. coli DHl, the subclone DHl (pSV6235) invaded cultured HEp-2 and Chinese hamster ovary cells at least 75- and 68-fold higher, respectively. The invasion rate of E. coli DHl for the cells significantly increased by harbouring the genomic region derived from pathogenic S. typhimurium 82/6915.

Comparative cytotoxic activities of petroleum ether soluble fraction from various ginsengs of Panax species were evaluated using A549 (human lung adenocarcinoma) and SK-OV-3(human ovary carcinoma) cancer cell lines. Korean red ginseng, Korean white ginseng, American ginseng and Canadian ginseng were found to show more potent cytotoxicitles on A549 and SK-OV-3 cell lines than Chinese red ginseng, Japanese red ginseng and Sanchi ginseng. It is noteworthy that especially, red ginseng prepared from the root of Panax ginseng cultivated in Korea shows relatively stronger cytotoxic activities than those cultivated in China and Japan.

높은 농도로 투여된 성선자극호르몬 분비호르몬 이성체(GnRH-Ag)는 성선자극호르몬의 분비를 억제시키고 난소의 기능을 억제하는 하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 그러나 체외수정 및 배아이식 시술과정에서 과배란 유도를 위해 다량의 GnRH-Ag를 사용하고 있으며, 이는 progesterone을 보충해 주어야 하는 황체기 결함을 유발시킨다. 본 실험의 목적은 이러한 황체기 결함을 유발시키는 원인을 알아보고자 사람 과배란 유도 과정과 비슷하게 생쥐에 GnRH-Ag와 PMSG를 투여하고 난소내 세 포자연사와 호르몬 합성 의 변화를 조사하고자 하였다. GnRH-Ag과 생리 식염수를 PMSG 투여 전 48시간부터 투여 후 48시간까지 12시간 간격으로 10$\mu$g씩 주사한 후 난소와 혈액을 채취하였다. 결과로서 난소의 무게는 GnRH-Ag만을 투여한 군에서 다른 두 실험군(PMSG 투여군, PMSC + CnRH-Ag 투여군)에 비해 유의하게 감소하였다. GnRH-Ag 투여군에서 난소내 강소형성전 난포의 비율은 증가한 반면, PMSC + GnRH-Ag투여군에서는 강소형성 난포의 비율은 감소하였고 황체의 비율은 증가하였다. 한편 난소내 세포자연사를 보이는 난포의 비율은 GnRH-Ag 투여군에서 PMSG 투여군에 비해 두배 이상 증가한 것을 알 수 있었고, 이러한 증가는 PMSC를 함께 투여함으로서 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 혈청내 estradiol과 progesterone의 농도는 GnRH-Ag 투여군에서 다른 두군에 비해 유의하게 감소하였다. 그러나 GnRH-Ag와 함께 PMSG를 투여 한 경우 estradiol 농도는 PMSG 투여군 수준까지 완전히 회복되었으나, progesterone농도는 완전히 회복되지 않았다. 결론적으로 체외수정 및 배아이식 과정에서 사용되는 GnRH-Ag는 난소내 세포자연사를 유발하고 호르몬 합성을 억제시켜 황체기 결함을 유발시킬 수 있으며, 이를 막기 위해 적절한 progesterone 보충이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
