The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tissue response in various bone grafting materials, especially xenogenous bone materials in vivo, compare of bone formation capacity of various bone grafting materials on rat skull defects and evaluate the effect of Hyaluronic acid on healing of human Demineralized Freezed Dried Bone allogenous graft (DFDBA) materials in rat calvarial defects. 30 Sprague-Dawly rats were divided into 4 groups. $7{\times}7mm$ size bony defect were artificially prepared in the calvaria (both parietal bone) of all 30 rats and follwed group grafting of autogenous bone graft on right side and allogenic DFDBA on left side bone graft (rat DFDB) in 15 control group, but in 15 experimental group, xenograft (human DFDB) on left side, hyaluronic acid treated with xenograft on right side. Sequential sacrifices was performed at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks of experiment. These specimens were stained with H&E and MT stain, and then histologic analysis under light microscope was carried out. There were inflammatory reaction in all graft material during early stage. Autogenous and Allogenous DFDBA graft group observed inflammatory reaction at 1 week. Xenograft group persistant inflammatory reaction until 4 weeks, but in HA treated xenograft group inflammatory reaction was decreased at 2 weeks. Osteoblastic activity in control group was begun at 2 week, xenograft group was delayed at 6 weeks, however HA treated xenograft group was begun at 4 weeks. At 2 week, mild osteoclastic activity were observed in all xenograft group not in concerned to HA, but there was no difference each group after 4 weeks. There are most activated angiogenesis around graft mateirals in xenograft group at 2 weeks, but in HA treated xenograft group, decreased angiogenesis was observed at same time. Bone formation and bone maturation of xenograft group, there was no difference in HA treatment, was less than control group. Fibrosis around xenograft materials were observed until 6 weeks, there was no difference between xenograft and HA treated groups.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an almost essential component of extracellular matrices. Early in embryogenesis mesenchymal cells migrate, proliferate and differentiate, in part, because of the influence of HA. Since the features of embryogenesis are revisited during wound repair, including bone fracture repair, this study was initiated to evaluate whether HA has an effect on calcification and bone formation in an in vitro system of osteogenesis. Mouse calvaria Pre-osteoblast (MC3T3-E1) cells were cultured in ${\alpha}-MEM$ medium with microorganism-derivative hyaluronic acid that was produced by Strep. zooepidemicus which of molecular weight was 3 million units. The dosages were categorized in each 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg/ml concentration experimental groups. After 2 and 4 days cultures in expeirmental and control groups, the tendency of cell proliferation, MTT assay, protein synthesis ability, collagen synthesis and alkaline phosphatase activity were analysed and bone nodule formation capacity were measured with Alizarin Red S stain after 29 days cultures. The cell proliferation was increased in time, especially the group of 0.5 and 1.0 mg/ml concentration of HA were showed prominent cell proliferation. After 2 and 4 days culture, experimental groups in general were greater cell activity in MTT assay. The protein synthesis was increased in all experimental groups compared to control group, especially most prominent in 1.0 mg/ml concentration group. The collagen synthesis capacity were increased in HA experimental groups, especially prominent in 1.0 mg/ml group and the activity of alkaline phosphatase were increased, especially also prominent in 1.0 mg/ml group, compared to control group. Above these, the activity of mouse carvarial pre-osteoblast cells was showed greater bone osteogenesis activity in all applied HA experimental group, especially group of 1.0 mg/ml concentration of HA.

As an efficient controlled release system for rhBMP-2, a functional nanoparticle-hydrogel complex, incorporated with matrix metalloproteinase(MMP) sensitive peptide cross-linker, was developed and used as a bone transplant. In vivo bone formation was evaluated by soft x-ray, histology, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity and mineral contents analysis, based on the rat calvarial critical size defect(8mm in diameter) model. Significantly, effective bone regeneration was achieved with the rhBMP-2 loaded MMP sensitive hyaluronic acid(HA) based hydrogel-Nanoparticles(NP) complex, as compared to only MMP HA, the MMP HA-NP without rhBMP-2, or even with the rhBMP-2. These improvements included the formation pattern of bone and functional marrow, the degree of calcium quantification, and the ALP activity. These results indicate that the MMP sensitive HA with nano-particle complex can be a promising candidate for a new bone defect replacement matrix, and an enhanced rhBMP-2 scaffold.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) on prevention of abdominal adhesions depending on various concentrations thereof by inducing an abrasion experimentally in the cecum of rats. Each group was consisted of 10 rats, and 40 rats were divided into 4 groups comprising the saline treatment group, HA 0.4% treated group, 0.6% treated group, and 0.8% treated group. And abrasion was caused in the cecum by using dry gauze and thereby, adhesion was induced. On 7 days after the operation, adhesions of each region were evaluated into the range of 0-4. Significant difference was found in the adhesion score between the control group and each experimental group (P<0.05). Also, HA 0.4% treatment group showed the lowest adhesion score (P<0.05). In the light of the above results, HA 0.4% solution was more effective on prevention of adhesion than HA 0.6% and 0.8% solution.

음주 후 숙취는 사람에 따라 증상과 정도가 상이 하지만 일반적으로 갈증, 피로감, 두통, 전신권태, 위장장애, 구토, 설사, 비타민 결핍 등이 나타난다. 이러한 숙취현상은 간세포와 체내에 축적된 알코올 및 알코올에 함유되어 있는 발효 부산물인 에틸아세테이트, 아세트알데히드 등의 전구물질들의 작용에 의해 발생한다. 이에 숙취현상을 해소하기 위한 연구로 연어 추출물 중 정액 또는 정소 추출물인 핵산-당-인산으로 이루어진 고분자이며 다당체인 Polydeoxyribonucleotide(PDRN)과 동일한 Origin, 동일 구조를 가지며 PDRN에 비해 가격이 저렴한 수용성 연어 추출물 분말을 사용하였다. 그리고 D-Glucuronic acid와 N-Acetyl glucosamine으로 구성된 고분자 다당체로 뛰어난 생체 적합성, 점탄성 및 보습력을 보유하고 있어서 숙취현상 중 나타나는 생체수분 감소량 및 피부수분 함유량저하에 대한 부분에 효과가 있어 항산화 및 피부보습효과를 제공하는 히알루론산(Hyaluronic acid)을 감마선으로 조사하여 사용하였다. 연어추출물 분말과 히알루론산 등을 이용하여 조성물을 제조한 후 체내 에탄올, 아세트알데히드 감소량, 혈중 아세트알데히드 농도와 초산 농도를 측정하여 알코올 분해효과를 평가하였고, 피부 수분 증발량과 피부 수분량을 조사하여 피부개선을 평가하고 항산화 및 피부보습효과를 제공하는지 여부를 판단하였다. 이에 에탄올은 연어추출물을 첨가하였을 때가 무첨가에 비해 5배에서 7배의 감소량을 보였고 아세트알데히드 3배에서 5배 이상의 감소량을 보였다. 또한 혈중 아세트알데히드 농도와 초산 농도의 변화에서는 무첨가 대조군에 비해 급격한 저하 변화를 보여 알코올 분해효과가 있음을 확인하여 숙취해소 효과가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 히알루론산 원료를 첨가하여 사용하였을 때 피부 수분함유량이 높았으며, 피부 수분 증발량이 감소됨이 확인되었다. 이에 고분자 다당체인 히알루론산은 뛰어난 점탄성 및 보습력을 보유하고 있어서 숙취현상 중 나타나는 생체수분 감소량 및 피부수분 함유량저하에 효과가 있어 항산화 및 피부보습효과를 제공하는 것으로 사료되어 연어추출물 분말과 히알루론산을 주원료로 하는 조성물이 음주 후 나타나는 숙취현상에 효과가 있다고 할 수 있다.

Dissolved oxygen (DO) and shear stress have pronounced effects on hyaluronic acid (HA) production, yet various views persist about their effects on the molecular weight of HA. Accordingly, this study investigated the effects of DO and shear stress during HA fermentation. The results showed that both cell growth and HA synthesis were suppressed under anaerobic conditions, and the HA molecular mass was only $(1.22{\pm}0.02){\times}10^6 Da$. Under aerobic conditions, although the DO level produced no change in the biomass or HA yield, a high DO level favored the HA molecular mass, which reached a maximum value of $(2.19{\pm}0.05){\times}10^6 Da$ at 50% DO. Furthermore, a high shear stress delayed the rate of HA synthesis and decreased the HA molecular weight, yet had no clear effect on the HA yield. Therefore, a high DO concentration and mild shear environment would appear to be essential to enhance the HA molecular weight.
