다중제어 Toffoli(multiple-control Toffoli, MCT) 게이트는 원시 게이트에 의존적인 양자 기술을 필요로 하는 매크로 레벨 다치(multiple-valued) 게이트이며, Galois Field sum-of-product(GFSOP)형 양자논리 함수의 합성에 사용되어 왔다. 가역 논리는 저전력 회로 설계를 위한 양자계산(quantum computing, QC)에서 매우 중요하다. 본 논문은 먼저 GF4 가역 승산기를 제안한 후 GF4 승산기 기반의 quaternary MCT 게이트 실현을 제안하였다. MCT 게이트 실현을 위한 비교에서 제안한 MCT 게이트가 다중제어 입력이 증가할수록 종전의 작은 MCT 게이트 합성 방법보다 원시 게이트 수와 게이트 지연을 상당량 줄일 수 있음을 보였다.

본 연구는 생후 발달 과정 동안 monocarboxylate transporter(MCT) isoform과 MCT의 발현 조절 단백질로 알려진 basigin(Bsg)과 embigin의 mRNA 발현을 흰쥐의 부정소에서 부위별로 real-time PCR 방법을 사용하여 알아보았으며, 에스트로젠과 에스트로젠 수용체 α의 작용에 의해 MCT1 발현이 조절되는지를 알아보기 위해 estrogen receptor α knockout(αERKO) 마우스를 이용하여 immunohistochemistry 방법을 통해 탐구하였다. 본 연구 결과는 다양한 MCT isoform(MCT1, 2, 3, 4와 8), Bsg과 embigin의 mRNA 발현이 부정소의 부위별로 연령에 따라 다르게 나타나며, 부정소에서 MCT1 단백질 발현은 corpus와 caudal 부위에서 apical 지역에 한정되어 나타나는 것을 보여 주었다. 또한 부정소에서 MCT1 단백질 발현은 에스트로젠 수용체 α의 존재 여부와 상관 없음이 보여졌다. 따라서, 본 연구는 MCT가 남성 생식기관인 부정소에서 정자 성숙과 저장을 위한 적절한 환경을 형성함으로써 남성 생식력의 유지에 관여 할 수 있음을 시사한다.

The objective of this study is to assess the impact of spray drying conditions on medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) loading, solubility, and release of an MCT-loaded solid self-emulsifying system in a water-insoluble oily substance. MCT-loaded solid self-emulsifying systems are prepared by spray drying with SDS and calcium silicate. The effects of inlet temperature (60, 80, or 100℃) and feed solution composition (0, 10, 50, 90, or 100% ethanol) on physicochemical properties of MCT-loaded solid self-emulsifying systems are studied. The inlet temperature significantly affects the water solubility of MCT. Moreover, the feed solution composition significantly affects water solubility, release rate, and MCT loading. The MCT-loaded solid self-emulsifying system obtained at 60℃ using 90% ethanol feed solution shows the best physicochemical properties among the synthesized products and exhibits better water solubility (4.43 ± 0.44 vs. 0 ㎍/mL) and release (94.4 ± 1.6 vs. 32.8 ± 7.4%, 60 min) than a commercial product. Furthermore, the MCT-loaded solid self-emulsifying system shows an excellent emulsion droplet size (approximately 230 nm).

Background: Increasing evidence suggests that stromal monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4) and carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) may play key roles in tumor development. However, their clinical value remains largely unexplored in gastric cancer (GC). The present study aimed to determine clinicopathological significance and prognostic values of stromal MCT4 and CA IX in GC. Materials and Methods: Specimens from 143 GC patients were immunohistochemically stained using polyclonal anti-MCT4 and anti-CA IX antibodies. Expression was correlated with patient clinicopathologic characteristics and survival data. Results: High stromal MCT4 expression was detected in 72 of 143 (50.3%) GCs and high CA IX in 74 (51.7%). Both high stromal MCT4 and CA IX were correlated with advanced TNM stage (p=0.000; p=0.000). High CA IX expression was positively related to depth of invasion (p=0.022) and positive lymph nodes (p=0.002) as well. Survival analysis indicated high expression of stromal MCT4 to be an independent factor in predicting poor overall survival (OS) (HR and 95%CI=1.962, 1.032-3.729, p=0.040) and disease free survival (DFS) (HR and 95%CI=2.081, 1.158-3.741, p=0.014) of GC patients. However, high CA IX expression exhibited no significant predictive value. Conclusions: These findings suggest that high expression of stromal MCT4 and CA IX proteins is significantly correlated with GC progression. High stromal MCT4 heralds worse outcome of GC patient, suggesting a novel candidate prognostic marker and therapeutic target.

본 연구에서는 남성 생식 기관인 efferent ductules(ED)에서 monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) isoform과 Basigin(Bsg)의 mRNA 발현을 탐구하고, MCT1의 발현이 에스트로젠 수용체 α에 의해 조절되는지를 연구하였다. 생후 여러 연령대의 백서 ED에서 MCT isoform과 Bsg의 mRNA 발현 여부는 real-time PCR에 의해 조사 되었고, 정상 생쥐와 에스트로젠 수용체 α knockout 생쥐를 사용하여 에스트로젠 수용체 α에 의한 MCT1의 발현 조절 여부는 immunohistochemistry 방법에 의해 간접적으로 알아 보았다. 본 연구 결과는 백서의 ED에서 MCT1, 2, 3, 4와 8 그리고 Bsg 유전자의 발현은 연령에 따라 다르게 나타나며, MCT1의 발현이 ED의 ciliated 세포의 basolateral 지역에서 발현되고 어떤 측면에서 ERα에 의해 조절되어 질 수 있음을 보여 주었다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 MCT가 monocarboxylate의 세포 내, 외부로 운반을 조절함으로써 남성 생식기의 일부인 ED의 역할을 조절하는데 관여함을 시사한다.

To investigate the effect of feeding rats medium-chain triglyceride(MCT), triglyceride containing primarily $C_8$ and $C_10$ fatty acids, it were compared to the effects of feeding triglycerides composed of long-chain triglyceride (LCT), corn oil and lard, on the serum enzyme activity. For 4 weeks rats fed a diet containing 20％ MCT or LCT ${\cdot}$ MCT, as compared with LCT, had the following effects: 1) The total lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) activities in the serum of all experimental group were significantly decreased then those of control group. 2) The activities of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) in the serum of all experimental group were decreased than those of control group. 3) The activities of glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) in the serum of all experimental group were decreased, MCT and LCT group were singinficantly decreased than of control group. 4) The activities of ${\alpha}-amylase$ in the serum of all groups were significantly increased than those of control group. 5) According to electrophoresis, LDH of LDH isoezyme activities in MCT and Lard group were increased with those of $LDH_5$ in corn oil group were increased than those of control gourp. It is suggested that the MCT and LCT fed to rats influence on the activity of various serum enzymes.

$Hg_{1-x}Cd_xTe$(MCT)박막을 $CdSO_4$, $TeO_2$, 및 $HgCl_2$이 혼합된 수용액을 사용하여 음극 전착법으로 ITO 유리와 티타늄기판 위에 성장하였다. 주된 박막의 성장 조건 변수로 전착전위와 성장 온도를 고려하였다. 전착된 MCT 박막은 SEM사진과 XRD 및 EPMA측정을 통하여 박막의 성장 조건이 결정 구조와 성분 조성비에 미치는 영향을 분석 연구하였다. XRD 분석으로부터 전착된 MCT 박막은 cubic zinc blonde 구조임을 알 수 있었고, EPMA에 의한 성분조성비의 분석결과로부터 전착전위를 변화시키므로서 MCT의 성분 조성비를 조절할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Background :긴 측쇄의 트리글리세라이드(long chain triglyceride, LCT)는 대두 또는 홍화씨로부터 제조된 지방유제의 주요 성분이다. 중 측쇄 트리글리세라이드(medium chain triglyceride, MCT)는 LCT와 다른 물리적 성질을 가지고 있다. MCT의 지방산은 LCT의 지방산 보다 작은 분자량을 가지기 때문에 물에 더 잘 녹으며 다른 경로를 통하여 더 빨리 대사된다. Objectives & Methods :본 연구에서는 지방산의 길이에 따른 고영양수액제(total nutrient admixture, TNA)의 안정성을 비교하기 위하여 서로 다른 LCT와 MCT 조성을 가지는 4 가지 TNA 처방의 안정성을 실온 및 냉장 조건에서 측정하였다. Results :그 결과 MCT와 LCT의 혼합 조성의 TNA는 LCT 단독 조성의 TNA 와 유사한 안정성을 나타내었다. MCT와 LCT 혼합 TNA는 LCT 단독 TNA에 비하여 작은 입자크기를 보였지만 외관, 산도, 과산화수소가, 삼투농도, 아연 농도, 니코틴아미드 및 리보플라빈 농도에서는 의미 있는 차이를 보이지 않았다. Conclusion : 따라서 MCT와 LCT의 혼합 TNA는 LCT 단독 조성 TNA에 상응하는 안정성을 가지고 LCT단독 TNA을 대체제로 사용할 수 있다. 결론적으로, TNA의 2가지 타입 모두 3일 동안 실온과 냉장에서 안정하고, MCT와 LCT의 혼합 TNA는 LCT 단독 조성 TNA보다 생리화학적으로 더 안정하므로 환자들에게 좀 더 효과적인 에너지원이 될 것으로 전망된다.

The purpose of the study was to find an effect of Medium Chain Triglycerids (MCT) diet on cholesterol metabolism in rat. Sprague-Dawley rats were fed two different diets containing MCT(trioctanoate) and corn oil respectively. After feeding to each group for four weeks, the levels of serum and liver cholesterol, the excretion rates of fecal and biliary steroids, and also bile acid composition were investigated. The results obtained from the study are as follows : (1) The average body weight gain in MCT group was almost same as that in the corn oil group. (2) The concentration of serum cholesterol in MCT group was lower than that in the corn oil group. Therefore it is confirmed that the cholesterol lowing action of MCT diet was practically high. (3) The concentrations of liver cholesterol and Triglyceride in MCT group were almost same as that in the corn oil group. Therefore it is thought that the level of liver lipids was not influenced by the difference of diet in this study. (4) The excretion rate of fecal neutral steroid in MCT group was significantly lower than that in the corn oil group, while the rate of fecal bile acid excretion was about same in both MCT and corn oil group. (5) The composition rates of fecal bile acid such as cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid, a secondary acid of cholic acid, in MCT group were significantly lower than that in the corn oil group. (6) The excretion rates of biliary cholesterol and bile acid in MCT group were significantly higher than that in the corn oil group, while the composition rates of biliary bile acid such as chenoddeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid in MCT group were significantly higher than that in the corn oil group.
