Three anti-apoptosis genes, Ls-iap2, iap3 and p49 were found in Leucania separata multiple nuclear polyhedrovirus. Amino acid sequence homology of Ls-IAP2 and Ls-IAP3 with Op-IAP2 and Op-IAP3 from Orgyia pseddotsugata MNPV were 20% and 42%, while that of Ls-P49 is 28% with Sl-P49 from Spodoptera littorolis MNPV. Ls-IAP2 contains one baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR) domain followed by a RING domain, while Ls-IAP3 contains two BIRs and a RING. Ls-P49 contains a reactive site loop, predicted cleavage site (KKLD$^{74}{\downarrow}$G) that is different from Sl-P49 (TVID$^{94}{\downarrow}$G). Expressed Ls-iap3 or Ls-p49 under presence of actinomycin D in SF9 cells, DNA ladder assayrevealed that Ls- IAP3 or Ls-P49 could block the apoptosis of SF9 cells induced by actinomycin D. Replication of p35 deficient-mutant Autographa californica MNPV in SF9 cells was also rescued when Ls-iap3 or Ls-p49 was expressed transiently. No anti-apoptotic activity was observed for Ls-IAP2. The results showed that both of Ls-IAP3 and Ls-P49 were functional apoptotic suppressors in SF9 cells.

IAP (In App Purchase) 컨텐츠는 스마트 기기의 앱 내부에서 진행되는 컨텐츠 구매로 최근 앱 스토어의 주요 수입원으로 떠오르고 있다. 많은 앱 개발사들이 사용자들이 쉽게 앱을 접할 수 있도록 앱 자체는 무료로 판매하고 주요한 기능이나 추가적인 기능을 IAP를 통해서만 구입하여 사용할 수 있도록 유도하고 있다. 이런 방식을 통해 사용자가 불법으로 앱을 다운로드 하더라도 추가적인 기능이나 컨텐츠를 이용하기 위해서는 IAP를 사용하여 대가를 지불하도록 유도하는 것이다. 그러나 앱 자체가 클라이언트 기능만을 수행하는 경우는 문제가 없지만 full-time으로 서버와 동기화를 해가며 동작하는 방식이 아닌 앱의 경우 IAP를 불법적으로 해킹하여 취득하는 것이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 불법적인 IAP 컨텐츠 획득을 방지하기 위하여 full-time으로 서버와 동기화를 하지 않으면서도 IAP 컨텐츠를 보호하기 위한 메커니즘을 제안한다.

Purpose: There is increasing interest in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) in critically ill patients. This study investigated the effects and outcomes of elevated IAP in a trauma intensive care unit (ICU) population. Methods: Eleven consecutive critically ill patients admitted to the trauma ICU at Pusan National University Hospital Regional Trauma Center were included in this study. IAP was measured every 8-12 hours (intermittently) for 72 hours. IAP was registered as mean and maximal values per day throughout the study period. IAH was defined as $IAP{\geq}12mmHg$. Abdominal compartment syndrome was defined as $IAP{\geq}20mmHg$ plus ${\geq}1$ new organ failure. The main outcome measure was in-hospital mortality. Results: According to maximal and mean IAP values, 10 (90.9%) of the patients developed IAH during the study period. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score was significantly higher in patients with $IAP{\geq}20mmHg$ than in those with IAP <20 mmHg (16 vs. 5, p=0.049). The hospital mortality rate was 27.3%. Patients with a maximum $IAP{\geq}20mmHg$ exhibited significantly higher hospital mortality rates (p=0.006). Non-survivors had higher maximum and mean IAP values. Conclusions: Our results suggest that an elevated IAP may be associated with a poor prognosis in critically ill trauma patients.

The intestinal environment plays a critical role in maintaining swine health. Many factors such as diet, microbiota, and host intestinal immune response influence the intestinal environment. Intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) is an important apical brush border enzyme that is influenced by these factors. IAP dephosphorylates bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), unmethylated cytosine-guanosine dinucleotides, and flagellin, reducing bacterial toxicity and consequently regulating toll-like receptors (TLRs) activation and inflammation. It also desphosphorylates extracellular nucleotides such as uridine diphosphate and adenosine triphosphate, consequently reducing inflammation, modulating, and preserving the homeostasis of the intestinal microbiota. The apical localization of IAP on the epithelial surface reveals its role on LPS (from luminal bacteria) detoxification. As the expression of IAP is reported to be downregulated in piglets at weaning, LPS from commensal and pathogenic gram-negative bacteria could increase inflammatory processes by TLR-4 activation, increasing diarrhea events during this phase. Although some studies had reported potential IAP roles to promote gut health, investigations about exogenous IAP effects or feed additives modulating IAP expression and activity yet are necessary. However, we discussed in this paper that the critical assessment reported can suggest that exogenous IAP or feed additives that could increase its expression could show beneficial effects to reduce diarrhea events during the post weaning phase. Therefore, the main goals of this review are to discuss IAP's role in intestinal inflammatory processes and present feed additives used as growth promoters that may modulate IAP expression and activity to promote gut health in piglets.

고추 과실의 연화와 관련된 세포벽 다당류의 변화를 조사하기 위하여 조세포벽으로부터 화학적인 방법에 의하여 IAP(ionically associated pectin), CBP(covalently bounded pectin), HF(hemicellulosic fraction) 및 CF(cellulosic fraction) 등의 다당류를 분획하여 그 조성변화를 살펴보았다. 고추 과실 세포벽 구성 IAP와 CBP는 $4{\sim}29%$의 hemicellulose와 $0.9{\sim}2.1%$의 cellulose를 함유하였으며, HF는 $8{\sim}13%$의 pectin과 $0.1{\sim}1.1%$의 cellulose를 함유하였다. 또 IAP와 CBP를 구성하는 polyuronide는 IAP쪽이 높았으나, hemicellulose는 CBP쪽이 높았다. CF를 제외한 모든 다당류는 turning stage 이후에 감소하였다. IAP와 CBP의 구성 polyuronide는 IAP에서는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았으나, CBP에서는 증가하였는데, 이것은 CBP와 결합한 HF의 감소에 기인하며, 이 감소의 주된 원인은 구성 galactose의 손실에 의한 것으로 판단되었다.

연구배경 : 세포에 방사선을 조사하면 세포사멸과 함께 AP-l, NF-${\kappa}B$와 같은 여러 전사인자가 활성화 되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이중 염증과 면역반응의 중요한 전사인자인 NF-${\kappa}B$는 항아포프토시스의 기능이 있으며 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화를 차단함으로써 TNF-${\alpha}$나 daunorubicine 등에 의 한 항암효과를 상승시킬 수 있음이 밝혀져 있다. NF-${\kappa}B$의 항아포프토시스 기전은 NF-${\kappa}B$ 의존성 단백질인 cIAPI, 2의 전사발현 유도에 의한 것으로 cIAPl, 2는 caspase 3, 7, pro-caspase-9의 활성을 차단함으로써 아포프토시스를 억제하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이에 저자들은 방사선 유도성 세포사멸에 비교적 내성을 보이는 A549 세포주에서 방사선에 의한 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화와 그에 따른 cIAP 발현유도를 조사하고 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화를 차단하여 방사선 유도성 세포사멸의 감작효과를 확인하기 위하여 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 세포주는 A549 폐암세포주를 이용하였고, 방사선 조사는 Varian사의 Clinac 1800C 선형가속기를 이용하였으며 조사량은 10GY를 사용하였다. 세포독성 검사는 MTT Assay를 이용하였고, NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화 검사는 luciferase reporter gene assay, electromobility shift assay, $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$ degradation에 대한 westem blot을 이용하였다. NF-${\kappa}B$활성을 차단하기 위하여 proteosome inhibitor인 MGI32와 $I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$-superrepressor plasmid를 transfection한 안정적 세포주 A549-$I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$-superrepressor를 이용하였다. cIAP의 발현은 RT-PCR을 이용하였고, cIAP2 promoter 활성은 NF-${\kappa}B$ site를 포함한 cIAP2 유전자 5' f1anking region(1.4kb)을 pGL2-Basic luciferase vector에 cloning 한 construct를 사용하여 transfection 후 luciferase assay를 시행하였다. 결 과 : A549 cell에서 10Gy 방사선 조사에 의한 세포독성은 24hr, 48hr에 각각 $10.82{\pm}.3%$, $17.7{\pm}6.4%$로 비교적 내성이 있음을 확인하였다. 방사선에 의한 NF-${\kappa}B$의 활성은 $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$ 분해에 대한 western blot과 EMSA로 확인하였으며 luciferase assay에서도 약 1.6 배 정도의 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성화가 있었다. NF-${\kappa}B$활성을 차단하기 위해 사용한 MG132는 방사선 유도성 세포사멸에 영향을 주지 않았으며 A549-$I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$-superrepressor 세포주에서도 세포사멸의 감작효과는 없었다. 또한 RT-PCR 결과 방사선에 의한 cIAP1,2 mRNA 발현유도는 관찰되지 않았고 cIAP2 promoter luciferase assay에서도 cIAP2 전사활성 유도는 없었다. 결 론 : A549 폐암세포주에서 방사선에 의해 NF-${\kappa}B$의 활성화는 확인하였으나 활성화 정도가 미약하였고 NF-${\kappa}B$ 의존성 항아포프토시스 유전자인 cIAP가 방사선에 의해 발현유도 되지 않았으며, NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성을 차단함에도 세포독성에 감작효과가 없었으므로 A549 폐암세포주에서 방사선 유도성 세포사멸에 내성을 보이는 기전에는 NF-${\kappa}B$의 역할이 미미하리라고 사료된다.

Objective: Intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) maintains intestinal homeostasis by detoxifying bacterial endotoxins and regulating gut microbiota, and lipid absorption. Antibiotics administered to animals can cause gut dysbiosis and barrier disruption affecting animal health. Therefore, the present study sought to investigate the role of IAP in the intestinal environment in dysbiosis. Methods: Young male mice aged 9 weeks were administered a high dose of antibiotics to induce dysbiosis. They were then sacrificed after 4 weeks to collect the serum and intestinal organs. The IAP activity in the ileum and the level of cytokines in the serum samples were measured. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of RNA from the intestinal samples was performed using primers for tight junction proteins (TJPs) and proinflammatory cytokines. The relative intensity of IAP and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in intestinal samples was evaluated by western blotting. Results: The IAP activity was significantly lower in the ileum samples of the dysbiosis-induced group compared to the control. The interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha concentrations were significantly higher in the ileum samples of the dysbiosis-induced group. The RNA expression levels of TJP2, claudin-3, and claudin-11 showed significantly lower values in the intestinal samples from the dysbiosis-induced mice. Results from western blotting revealed that the intensity of IAP expression was significantly lower in the ileum samples of the dysbiosis-induced group, while the intensity of TLR4 expression was significantly higher compared to that of the control group without dysbiosis. Conclusion: The IAP activity and relative mRNA expression of the TJPs decreased, while the levels of proinflammatory cytokines increased, which can affect intestinal integrity and the function of the intestinal epithelial cells. This suggests that IAP is involved in mediating the intestinal environment in dysbiosis induced by antibiotics and is an enzyme that can potentially be used to maintain the intestinal environment in animal health care.

Among the members of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) protein family, only Livin and survivin have been reported to have variant forms. We have found a variant form of c-IAP2 through the interaction with the X protein of HBV using the yeast two-hybrid system. In contrast to the wild-type c-IAP2, the variant form has two stretches of sequence in the RING domain that are repeated in the C-terminus that would disrupt the RING domain. We demonstrate that the variant form has an inhibitory effect on TNF-mediated $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation unlike the wild-type c-IAP2, which increases TNFmediated $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation. These results suggest that this variant form has different activities from the wild-type and the RING domain may be involved in the regulation of TNF-induced $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation.

A study on reflective spectrum between In-Ceram alumina plate(IAP) and IPS empress 2 plate were carried out in order to determine the difference of reflective spectrum rates between materials and between thicknesses of materials(0.8mm, 1.0mm, 1.2mm) by visible wave. The rates are measured by spectrophotometer(Top scan model TC-1800). And an analysis of ANOVA and paired sample t-test were carried out. The results are summarized as follows. 1. The reflective rates of IAP and IPS increased slowly as visible wave spectrum increased. 2. The difference of reflective rates of IAP between 0.8mm and 1.0mm is significant but a little(less than 1%). The differences of reflective rates of IAP between 0.8mm and l.2mm and between 1.0mm and l.2mm are significant(8%, 10% ). 3. The differences of reflective rates of IPS between 0.8mm and 1.0mm and between 0.8mm and 1.2mm and between 1.0mm and 1.2mm are significant(0.06 %, 0.01 %, 2 %). 4. The differences of reflective rates of 0.8mm, 1.0mm between IAP and IPS are significant but a little(less than 0.9%, 0.5%). The difference of reflective rates of l.2mm between IAP and IPS is significant and larger than the other thicknesses relatively(7 %).

Fuji 과실의 성숙에 따른 pectin 질의 변화를 조사하기 위하여 LMP (low methoxy pectin), HMP (high methoxy pectin) IAP (ionically associated pectin), CBP (covalently bounded pectin), methoxyl 및 구성당의 함량변화와 DE(degree of esterification)를 조사하였다. 그 결과 LMP+HMP와 IAP+CBP는 AIS(alcohol insoluble solid)의 각각 70%, 22%를 차지하였고 이들 성분은 성숙에 따라 다소 증가하였다. Pectose 질을 구성하는 중성당중 hexose는 LMP, HMP, IAP, CBP 다같이 $20{\sim}50%$가 감소하였는데 특히 Gal의 감소율은 63%이었다. Pentose는 $1{\sim}9%$가 증가하였고 uronic acid는 $2{\sim}4%$감소하였다. 그러나 HMP, CBP에서는 uronic acid의 상대적 함유비율은$3{\sim}5%$ 증가되었다.
