Purpose : Extensive defect of oral and maxillofacial area is usually reconstructed with composite flap including skin paddle. However, if the defects are lined with only skin components, the mucosa's role in mastication and texture are not restored. Furthermore, stiffness and hair-growing prevent denture rehabilitation and good oral hygiene. This study was performed to overcome the disadvantages of composite soft tissue flaps including the skin and to make a model for myo-mucosal flaps. Materials and methods : Buccal mucosa sized $0.5\times1.0\;cm^2$ from New Zealand rabbit (around 1.5kg) was harvested and cultivated by the modification of Rheinwald and Green's keratinocyte culture method. Cultured mucosa was grafted on the fascia of latismus dorsi as form of mucosal sheet. After 7, 10, 14 days, the myomucosal flap was excised and evaluated under light microscope with H & E and immunohistochemical staining. As control group, harvested buccal mucosa from rabbit was transplanted to gracilis muscle(n=6). Results : From 7 days after prelamination, the basal layer of the grafted mucosa resembled that of normal mucosa. As control group, transplanted mucosa had original shape but there's slight inflammatory reaction. Prelaminated mucosa has 19.8$\pm$4.59 cell layers and some samples have more than 20 layers. The expression rate of PCNA was relatively strong (42.9%$\pm$14.1) at the basal layer of grafted mucosa and the laminin was found at the basal layer. On the contrary, prelaminated mucosa at 10 days showed moderate expression rate of PCNA(32.4%$\pm$4.62). We found the mucosal layer was somehow disappeared and there is strong inflammatory reaction. After 14 days prelamination, the grafted oral keratinocytes were almost disappeared and expression of PCNA was not observed. Conclusion : We can make 75 fold large mucosal($3850mm^2$) sheet from small samples of mucosa $(50mm^2)$. Epithelial sheet that grafted on the fascia of muscle underwent differentiation and proliferation. But after 10, 14 days, there was strong inflammatory reaction and the grafted mucosa was destroyed from surface layer. In rabbit model, transfer of fascio-mucosal flap should be done from 7 to 10 days after prelamination.

Background: rhGM-CSF has been shown to enhance the migration and proliferation of endothelial cells and to promote keratinocyte growth. This study was tried to evaluate the effect of rhGM-CSF dressing on the uninfected wounds. Methods: Thirty Sprague-dawley white mice(250-300g) were selected in this study. The number of wound with the diameter of 5 mm, was 3 in left and 3 in right at the symmetric sites, respectively. The site of rhGM-CSF dressing was decided by a randomization. rhGM-CSF($Leucogen^{(R)}$) was diluted in the distilled water($5{\mu}g/mL$). The experimental wound group was dressed by l mL of distilled water mixed with rhGM-CSF and control wound group was dressed by l mL of distilled water. The dressing was done, every 24 hours. The criteria of comparison were the duration of wound healing duration, histologic findings and the bacterial culture of wound sites. Results: The duration of wound healing was $10.3{\pm}1.7days$ in experimental group and $10.2{\pm}2.8days$ in control group, without significant difference. There was no specific difference of histologic findings between both groups. The pathogen was not found, at all. Conclusion: It seems to be that rhGM-CSF has no prominent effect on the uninfected wound healing in the mice without immune suppression.

유자(Citrus junos Sieb ex TANAKA)는 북동아시아 지역에서 재배되는 감귤류 종이며, 비타민 C, 플라보이드, 리모노이드를 풍부히 함유하고 있다. 한국에서 재배되는 유자는 차나 음식료품으로 사용되고, 부산물인 씨와 과피는 전량 폐기되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 유자 부산물을 기능성 화장품 소재로서 이용 가능성을 평가하였다. 씨와 과피 에탄올 추출물에서 DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) 라디칼 소거활성 효과는 크지 않았지만 고농도의 phenolic compounds를 함유하고 있다. 각질형성세포(HaCaT Keratinocyte)와 섬유아세포(Normal Fibroblast)에 UVB를 각각 12.5 $mJ/cm^2$, 15 $mJ/cm^2$를 조사한 후 항염효과와 Collagen 합성량, Collagen 분해효소인 MMP-1 (matrix metalloproteinase)의 발현량을 확인하였다. 과피 추출물에서 UVB에 의해 증가된 TNF-$\alpha$를 상당량 줄여주었다. 마찬가지로 과피 추출물은 MMP-1의 발현량을 줄여주고 Collagen의 합성량도 증가시켰다. 한편 유자 추출물의 $\alpha$-MSH (Melanocyte stimulating hormone) 처리에 의해 유도된 멜라닌 생합성 억제효능과 타이로시나제 발현량 감소를 확인하였다. 결론적으로 유자 부산물의 에탄올 추출물질은 항노화, 미백 기능성 화장품 소재로 가치가 기대된다.
