본고에서는 2009 대전국제우주대회의 개최 결과 및 유치 성과를 정리하였다. 지난 10월 대전에서 개최된 국제우주대회는 72개국 4,000명 이상의 국내외 우주 전문가와 학생들이 참석한 가운데 역대 최고 대회로 성황리에 막을 내렸다. 이번 대회 개최는 우리나라의 우주개발 활동에 대한 국제적 인지도를 향상시키고 신흥 우주국으로서의 우리나라의 위상을 강화하는데 기여하였을 뿐 아니라, 전략적 국제협력을 강화하기 위한 저변을 확대를 위한 중요한 밑거름이 되었다. 또한 대회 개최를 계기로 국내 젊은 우주 인력의 양성을 지원하고 및 국민의 우주활동에 대한 이해를 증진시킬 수 있었다.

Objectives: This study sought to provide guidelines in order to decrease the incidence of nerve injury during mandibular ramus bone harvesting, and to improve understanding of the anatomical structure of the inferior alveolar canal (IAC) to include its distance from the exterior buccal cortex. Materials and Methods: In January and February 2009, 20 patients who visited the Wonkwang University Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery reporting various conditions underwent cone beam computed tomography and were included in this study. Patients with missing left or right mandibular first molars or incisors, or who had jaw fracture or bone pathologies, were excluded. The reference point (R point) was defined as the point where the occlusal plane reached the anterior ramus of the mandible. The position of the IAC in relation to the R point, the buccal bone width (BW), the alveolar crest distance (ACD), the distance from the alveolar crest to the occlusal plane (COD), and the distance from the IAC to the sagittal plane (CS) were determined using proprietary image analysis software which produced cross-sectional coronal and axial images. Results: The distance medially from the R point to the IAC along the axial plane was $6.19{\pm}1.21mm$. The HD from the R point, posteriorly to IAC, in the lateral view was $13.07{\pm}2.45mm$, the VD from the R point was $14.24{\pm}2.41mm$, and the ND from the R point was $10.12{\pm}1.76mm$. The pathway of the IAC was positioned almost in a straight line along a sagittal plane within $0.56{\pm}0.70mm$. The distance from the buccal bone surface to the IAC increased anteriorly from the R point. Conclusion: Marking osteotomy lines in the retromolar area in procedures involving bone harvesting should be discouraged due to the risk of damage to IAC structures. Our measurements indicated that the area from the R point in the ramus of the mandible to 10 mm anterior can be safely harvested for bone grafting purposes.

In recent years, several genetically modified (GM) crops have been developed worldwide through the recombinant DNA technology and commercialized by various agricultural biotechnological companies. Commercialization of GM crops will be required the assesment of risks associated with the release of GM crops. In advance of the commercial release of GM crops, developer should submit the several information on GM crops for approval. In this study, we carried out to provide the molecular data for the risk assessment of GM rice containing insect-resistant gene, modified Cry1Ac (CryIAc1). Through the molecular analysis with CryIAc1 induced GM rice, we confirmed the steady integration and expression of transgene, the transgene copy number, the adjacent region sequences of inserted gene into rice genome, and the transgene stability in progenies. For the qualitative PCR detection methods, specific primer pairs were designed on the basis of integration sequences, and construct- and event-specific detection markers were developed for leaf folder-resistant rice, Cr7-1 line. From these results, we demonstrated that the molecular data and the PCR detection methods of leaf folderresistant GM rice could be acceptable to conduct the biosafety and environment risk assessment.

후대교배종 CM 벼의 정성 PCR 검정방법을 개발하기 위하여, 벼의 내재유전자로써 OsCs-J(rice cytochrome c gene)을 선발하여 OsCytC-5'/3'의 primer쌍을 제작하고, 벼를 포함한 서로 다른 8개 작물에 대하여 PCR을 수행한 결과 벼에 특이적으로 증폭되는 111 bp의 반응 산물을 확인하였다. 국내 개발된 LS28$\times$CryIAc1 GM 벼의 검정 분석으로 정성 PCR 반응을 수행하였다. 정성 PCR을 위하여 GM 벼에 도입된 T-DNA 및 게놈상의 도입유전자 삽입부위의 인접서열을 바탕으로 구조 및 계통 특이적인 검정 primer 쌍을 제작하였다. ActCk-5'/3' primer 쌍을 이용하여 LS28의 T-DNA 내의 actin 프로모터와 OsCK1 유전자 사이를 증폭시켜 306 bp의 PCR 반응 산물을 얻을 수 있었으며, 또한 계통특이 primer 쌍인 CryIAc1 GM 벼유래의 CrLB-5'/3' 및 LS28 GM 벼 유래의 CKRB-5'/3'를 이용한 PCR 반응으로 각각 142 bp와 91 bp의 도입유전자의 인접서열 부위의 특이적인 증폭 산물을 확인할 수 있었다. 계통 특이적 검정을 위한 이들 개발 primer 쌍들은 event 계통과 대조적으로 non-GM 벼와 다양한 작물에 대하여 어떠한 특이적인 PCR 증폭 산물을 형성하지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서 계통특이 primer를 이용하여 후대교배종 GM 벼 계통, L528$\times$CryIAc1을 특이적으로 검출할 수 있음을 확인하였고, 제시된 방법이 GM 벼의 실용화를 위한 위해성평가의 검정방법 자료로 제공될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The magnetic field at the surface of the Sun is concentrated in magnetic features that often have spatial extents of 100 km or less. The study of the fine scale structure of the Sun's magnetic field has been hampered by the limited spatial resolution of the available observations. This has recently changed thanks to various new high-resolution facilities, among them the SUNRISE observatory, built around the largest solar telescope to leave the ground, and containing two science instruments. SUNRISE successfully had its first long-duration science flight on a stratospheric balloon in June 2009 and a host of scientific results have been obtained from the data. After a brief introduction to the Sunrise mission, an overview of selected results obtained so far will be given. A reflight at higher solar activity is currently being prepared.

To understand the anti-allergic mechanism of compound K, which is a metabolite of ginsenoside Rb1, a main constituent of the root of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer (family Araliaceae), its inhibitory effect against IgE-antigen complex IAC)-induced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction in mice and mRNA and protein expressions of allergic cytokines in lAC-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells were investigated. Orally administered ginsenoside Rb1 more potently inhibited PCA reaction when administered at 5 h prior to the lAC treatment than when administered at I h before. However, compound K orally administered 1 h before lAC treatment showed a more potent anti-PCA reaction effect than when treated at 5 h before. Orally administered ginsenoside Rb1 more potently inhibited PCA reaction induced by lAC in mice than intraperitoneally treated one, apart from orally administered its metabolite, compound K, which was more potent than the orally administered one. The compound K, a metabolite of ginsenoside Rb1, inhibited mRNA and protein expressions of IL-4 and TNF-${\alpha}$ and the activation of their transcription factor NF-$\kappa$B and MAPK in lAC-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells. These findings suggest that orally administered ginsenoside Rb1 may be dependent on its metabolism by intestinal microflora in the intestine and the compound K may improve allergic diseases by the inhibition of IL-4 and TNF-${\alpha}$ expresseion.
