Using Brandt model the mess distribution of the late type spiral galaxy NGC 6946 was derived, and the total mass was reestimated to understand the M/L ratio of this galaxy. Two kinds of the rotation curve with shape parameter n=1 and 3.3 were examined. The following are the main results; (1) The total masses of NGC 6946 are $3.1\times$$10^{11}$ M(n=1) AND $2.8\times$$10^{11}$ M(n=3.3) respectively. and the corresponding M/L are about 17 and 16 for both cases. (2) The optical image in the blue light, whose radius is 9.6 kpc, has 8$\times$$10^{10}$ M and 1.4$\times$$10^{11}$ M. These give the value of M/L about 5 and 8 respectively. (3) The masses and M/L of the nuclear region within 1.2 kpc are 4.0$\times$$10^{9}$ M 4.7$\times$$10^9$ M and 3, 4 for both cases. Those of the disk from 1.2 kpc to 9.6 kpc are 7.6$\times$1$10^{10}$M, 1.4$\times$$10^{11}$M, and 5, 8. (4) The masses of the outer halo extended to few hundreds kiloparsecs are 2.3$\times$$10^{11}$ M and 1.4$\times$$10^{11}$M. The corresponding M/L are about 62 and 37.

mST3GaIV synthesizes ganglioside GM3, the precursor for simple and complex a- and b- series gangliosides, and the expression and regulation of mST3GaIV (CMP-NeuAc: lactosylceramide $\alpha$2,3-sialyltransferase) activity is central to the production of almost all gangliosides, a class of glycosphingolipids implicated in variety of cellular processes such as transmembrane signaling, synaptic transmission, specialized membrane domain formation and cell-cell interactions. To understand the developmental expression of mST3GaIV in mice, we investigated the spatial and temporal expression of mST3GaIV mRNA during the mouse embryogenesis [embryonic (E) days; 19, E11, E13, E15] by in situ hybridization with digoxigenin-labeled RNA probes. All tissues from 19 and E11 were positive for mST3GaIV mRNA. On E13, mST3GaIV mRNA was expressed in various neural and non-neural tissues. In contrast to these, on E15, the telencephalon and liver produced a strong expression of mST3GaIV which was a quite similar to that of E13. In this stage, mST3GaIV mRNA was also expressed in some non-neural tissues. These data indicate that mST3GaIV is differently expressed at developmental stages of embryo, and this may be importantly related with regulation of organogenesis in mice.

Seed priming is a useful technique for rapid and uniform seed germination as well as early seedling establishment. This experiment was conducted to find out the optimum condition for Sorbus alnifolia seed priming with four concentrations of four reagents in germination property and seedling growth performance. The results are summarized as follows: Percent germination (PG) varied 2.67% to 24.67%, and S. alnifolia seeds had the highest PG in the treatment that were primed in 100mM $KNO_3$ solution for 2 days. Mean germination time was the shortest in 200 mM $KNO_3$ solution for 2 days. Seed priming with $KNO_3$ solutions increased germination speed (GS) and germination performance index (GPI) compared with non-primed seeds. Especially seed primed with 100 mM $KNO_3$ solution for 2 days showed the highest GS and GPI. The highest relative growth rate (RGR) and seedling vigor index (SVI) was significantly (p<0.05) different from the control and other treatments, respectively. RGR of height (0.0071) and root collar diameter (0.0141) of seedling from primed seeds were the highest in 400 mM NaCl solution for 2 days. The highest SVI (5.43) was observed in the seedlings from seeds primed in 100 mM $KNO_3$ solution for 2 days. Consequently, the optimum reagent and concentration were $KNO_3$ and 100 mM for the effective germination and seedling growth in S. alnifolia

Daycare centers are an important indoor environment for pre-school children and exposure area with potential harmful health effects for infants and children who spend most of their daily life. Sampling was undertaken at 29 daycare centers located Seoul in Korea from January, 2006 to December 2006. The target compounds were 7 individual volatile organic compounds (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m,p-xylene, styrene, o-xylene, TVOC). The mean concentrations of TVOC, toluene, m ,p-xylene, ethylbenzene, benzene and styrene in daycare centers were $318.7{\mu}g/m^3$, $51.6{\mu}g/m^3$, $11.7{\mu}g/m^3$, $6.5{\mu}g/m^3$, $4.2{\mu}g/m^3$, $3.6{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. Toluene occupied 17.6 % of the concentration of individual VOCs. The ratio of indoor and outdoor (I/O) of TVOC and toluene were 2.0 and 1.6, respectively. The results of characteristics according to a season of a year, the concentration of TVOC were measured $433.9{\mu}g/m^3$, and these concentrations during third quarter of the year in summer were higher than the other season. In the other four seasons, TVOC were measured 280.5 in winter, 298.3 in spring and $264.6{\mu}g/m^3$ in fall, respectively.

This experiment was conducted to improve germination rate and growth of Lilium formolongi 'Neosan No. 2' seeds by priming. Seeds were immersed in the solutions of 200 mM $Ca(NO_3)_2$, 200 mM $KNO_3$ for 3 days and 100 mg/L $GA_3$ for 1 day at $17{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. For chilling treatment, seeds were kept in the low temperature chamber of $2{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Germination percentage of seeds treated with $Ca(NO_3)_2$ or $KNO_3$ was higher than that of seeds with other treatments and control seeds to 10 days after seeding, but final germination percentage was not significantly different among all treatments including control. Early growth of seedlings treated with $Ca(NO_3)_2$ and $KNO_3$ were better than that of seedling with other treatments.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between nicotine and the activity of bone forming cell. MG63 osteoblast-like cells were used for this study. Several factors were examined including the proliferation of cell, alkaline phosphatase activity, the formation of osteocalcin and osteoprotegerin. and the synthesis of its mRNA. MG63 osteoblast-like cells were incubated for 1, 2, 3 and 6 days with nicotine added to the culture medium in 1.0 ${\mu}M$, 1.0mM, 2.5mM, 5.0mM, 7.5mM, and 10.0mM concentrations. The proliferation of MG63 osteoblast-like cells was temporarily activated at the low nicotine concentrations. At high concentrations (>5.0 mM), however. it was suppressed. Alkaline phosphatase activity was suppressed in a dose-dependent manner as the concentration of nicotine increased. Osteocalcin decreased in a dose-dependent manner at high nicotine concentrations of more than 7.5mM and the same result was show when the osteoblasts were treated with low concentrations for longer than 3 days. There was a difference in the influence of nicotine on the synthesis of osteocalcin mRNA and formation of osteocalcin itself at 1 and 3 days. Generally, osteoprotegrin notably declined in all experimental groups. However, the level of its mRNA increased at high nicotine concentrations of more than 7.5mM after 3 days and more than 5.0mM after 6days.

The nature of the muscarinic receptors in bovine adrenal medulla was investigated in this study. [$^3$H]Quinuclidinyl benzilate(QNB) specifically bound to a single class of muscarinic receptor with a $K_{D}$ value of about 70 pM in bovine adrenal medullary, cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates. Pirenzepine inhibition curves of [$^3$H]QNB binding to cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates were steep, indicating the presence of a single class of binding site for pirenzepine with a Ki value of 990 nM and 508 nM, respectively. However, pirenzepine/[$^3$H]QNB competition binding curves in adrenal medulla suggested the presence of two binding sites (Hill coefficient=0.59) with a high( $M_1$) and a low( $M_2$) affinity. Respective Ki values for pirenfepine were 16 nM and 633 nM, with 44% of total sites having a high affinity( $M_1$). Gallamine, which is selective to cardiac $M_2$-receptor, inhibited [$^3$H]QNB binding to adrenal medullary, cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates with Ki values of 12 $\mu$M, 6 $\mu$M and 13 $\mu$M, respectively. Thus, the binding affinities of pirenzepine and gallamine for $M_2$-receptor in adrenal medulla were similar to those in ileum, which contains the $M_3$-receptor. These results indicate that the $M_1$- and $M_3$- muscarinic receptor subtypes coexist in the bovine adrenal medulla.a.

Let M be a left R-module and R be a ring with unity, and $S=\{0,2,3,4,{\ldots}\}$ be a submonoid. Then $M[x^{-s}]=\{a_0+a_2x^{-2}+a_3x^{-3}+{\cdots}+a_nx^{-n}{\mid}a_i{\in}M\}$ is an $R[x^s]$-module. In this paper we show some properties of $M[x^{-s}]$ as an $R[x^s]$-module. Let $f:M{\rightarrow}N$ be an R-linear map and $\overline{M}[x^{-s}]=\{a_2x^{-2}+a_3x^{-3}+{\cdots}+a_nx^{-n}{\mid}a_i{\in}M\}$ and define $N+\overline{M}[x^{-s}]=\{b_0+a_2x^{-2}+a_3x^{-3}+{\cdots}+a_nx^{-n}{\mid}b_0{\in}N,\;a_i{\in}M}$. Then $N+\overline{M}[x^{-s}]$ is an $R[x^s]$-module. We show that given a short exact sequence $0{\rightarrow}L{\rightarrow}M{\rightarrow}N{\rightarrow}0$ of R-modules, $0{\rightarrow}L{\rightarrow}M[x^{-s}]{\rightarrow}N+\overline{M}[x^{-s}]{\rightarrow}0$ is a short exact sequence of $R[x^s]$-module. Then we show $E_1+\overline{E_0}[x^{-s}]$ is not an injective left $R[x^s]$-module, in general.
