To investigate host defense mechanisms for protecting the mammary gland from mastitis infection, the membrane fraction of mammary tissues from Holstein cows was purified by differential velocity centrifugation, and then the sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamid gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) separated proteins were identified by ion trap mass spectrometer equipped with a Surveyor high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system. A total of 183 proteins were identified. Bioinformatics software was applied to analyse physicochemical characteristics of the identified proteins and to predict biochemical function. These data may provide valuable information to investigate the mechanisms of mammary gland milk secretion and infectious disease, and enable a clear identification of proteins and potential protein targets for therapies.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Melandrii Herba (MH), Akebia Quinata Decaisne (AQ), and Tetrapanax Papyriferus (TP) on milk secretion and aquaporin (AQP) expression in lactating mice. Methods: For the experiment, the mice were divided into three groups, which were orally administered MH (2,720 mg/kg), TP (400 mg/kg) and AQ (2,800 mg/kg) extracts respectively for 3 weeks from Day 1 after the birth, compared with the control group (C group), which was administered distilled water. A group consisted of six infantile mice per postpartum mouse. For comparison with the C group, non-pregnant SKH-1 mice were used as the virgin group. Results: 1. When it comes to the immunohistochemical staining for prolactin receptors in the mammary glands, the AQ and MH groups showed a strong immune response to the secretory epithelial cells constituting the mammary alveoli, while the TP group represented a weaker immune response. 2. In the immunohistochemical staining for AQP in the mammary glands, AQP1 showed a strong immune response in the walls of capillaries and venules around the mammary alveoli, and AQP3 in the epithelial cells constituting the mammary alveoli, and AQP5 in some tissues between the mammary alveoli. AQP1 was expressed in the order of TP group>AQ group=C group>MH group, and AQP3 was MH group and AQ group>TP group=C group, and AQP5 was MH group>C group>AQ group and TP group. 3. In the Western blot, AQP1 was expressed in the order of TP group>AQ group>C group>MH group, and AQP3 was MH group>AQ group>C group>TP roup, and AQP5 was MH group>TP Group>C group>AQ group. All of AQP1, 3, 5 expression were significantly higher in the C group than in the Virgin group. Conclusions: The administration of Akebia Quinata Decaisne, Tetrapanax Papyriferus and Melandrii Herba have the effect of improving prolactin levels in postpartum mice and increasing the expression of prolactin receptor and AQPs in the mammary glands, suggesting that lactation might be enhanced by the development of the mammary glands.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the dental caries activity of some commercial drinks. Methods : Acidity levels were recorded as pH values of original drinks and amount of 50%-sodium hydroxide(NaOH) required to neutralize by titration 50.00ml of the drink(It was called titratable acid). Acidity of the drinks with S. sobrinus was measured at an interval of one hour after incubating ($37^{\circ}C$) the test drinks and control solution which was composed 20.00ml of neutralized drinks as pH 7.0 with 0.2ml of a pooled suspension of S. sobrinus. Results : The drink with the highest pH value was the Cow's milk(pH $6.70{\pm}0.01$), and the most acidic was the Carbonated drink(pH $2.40{\pm}0.02$). The drink with the highest buffer effect was the Fruit juice($139.78{\pm}0.76$), and the lowest was the Glucose solution(control, $4.42{\pm}0.20$). The drinks with S. sobrinus during incubation at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24h were decreased to below critical pH 5.5. Spending times from pH 7.0 to pH 5.5~5.0 were Glucose solution(less than 1h). Carbonated drink(3h), Fruit juice(5h), Cow's milk(8h) and Mixed drink(21h). Conclusions: These results show that some commercial drinks with S. sorbrinus have the possibility of tooth decalcification. Thus, it is suggested that the people who have the low salivary secretion rate and the children who sleep without toothbrushing after drinking need the instruction for diet control and oral health education.

This study was conducted to investigate the weaning practice of 198 infants in Taejon city in October, 1998. Information on infant feeding and weaning practices were obtained by interviewing mothers in gynecologist and pediatric clinics located in Taejon. The results obtained were as follows : In the survey 37.4% of the infants were breast-feeding, while 31.3% of them were bottle-feeding and 29.3% of them were mixed-feeding. The reason for bottled-feeding was due either to the lack of breast-milk secretion or motner’s job. The educational level of the mother and maternal job affected the feeding methods before weaning. Lower rates of breast-feeding were found among mothers witn a lover level of education. The breast-feeding rate was lower in full-time and part-time job worker groups than in housewife. There was no significant difference in the feeding methods according to family income. Among the subjects, 71.5% of infants began to be weaned within 7 months. The onset of weaning was delayed in the full-time worker group. There was no significant difference in the onset time of weaning according to feeding method, the educational level of the mother, and family income. 60.6% of infants received fruit juice and 29.6% of them received cereals for first-given-supplementary food. ‘For baby’s nutritional status’ was the most common motivation for the onset of weaning. Commercially prepared foods were used more than home-made food for supplementary food.

Programmed cell death, apoptosis, is a mechanism to maintain tissue homeostasis. Although the apoptotic process in rodent mammary tissues has been known to occur at the onset of involution, little is known about programmed cell death in the bovine tissues. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular and cellular basis of apoptotic process in bovine mammary cells. Mammary tissues were obtained at different lactational and involurional stages. By apoptosis in situ endlabeling assay, apoptotic cells were found around the acinar celt lining in regressing bovine mammary tissues. The apoptosis-related genes bel-2 and bax were detected throughout involution by Northern blotting assay. The level of bax mRNA was dominantly expressed during involution. On the other hand, the bel-2 RNA transcripts were constantly expressed by 14 of post-lactation and declined thereafter. The expression of the testosterone-repressed prostate message-2 (TRPM-2) RNA transcripts, a marker for tissue remodeling, was increased as involution progressed. TNF a, were induced the DNA fragmentation and enhanced the expression of bax mRNA. In addition, milk protein secretion and amino acid uptake were decreased in mammary acinar culture treated with TNF $\alpha$. These results indicate that bovine mammary cells undergo apoptotic process after the cessation of milking and that TNF $\alpha$ may trigger apoptosis in lactating bovine mammary acini.

The condition of nutrition during infancy will greatly affect infants' physical, emotional growth, especially breast feeding is important in their growth and development, and emotional stability, too. Despite such advantages of breast-feeding, its rate has continued to fall year after year in Korea : the 95% rate in 1960's has fallen to 25.4% in 1990. It is known that such a downfall of breast-feeding rate is associated with various factors. The purpose of the study is to examine mother's and nurses' in nursery perception of the impediment factors of breast-feeding : to compare those between of breast-feeding : to compare those between two groups : to provide fundamental data for developing strategies for increasing breast-feeding. The subjects were 45 new mothers from one hospital and the same number of nurses sampled from 3 university hospitals, in Seoul. The data were collected for 11 days from April 12 to April 23, 1994 and a questionnaire was developed based on the interview with 14 nurses and 10 mothers and the literature reviews. Liker's Five-Point Scale was used as measurement. The Data were analyzed using SPSS / PC and descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA. The results of study are as follows : 1) Most new mothers get the information about breast-feeding from their mothers, books or newspaper, and relatives in rank than professionals(nurses or doctors). 2) The impediment factors the breast-feeding are categorized as mothers, hospital system, medical personnels and social factors. The most frequently mentioned impediment factors from mothers are 'Difficulty by operational wounds'(3.13), 'Lack of will for breast-feeding'(3.47), 'Insufficient rest and sleep'(3.52) and 'Opposition from husband or his family members'(4.77)in rank. On the other hand those factors from nurses are 'Inadequate nipple condition'(2.37), 'Decreasing milk secretion given medicine after operation'(2.63), 'Mothers knowledge deficit by poorly prepared education'(2.79) and 'Mothers abhorance of breast-feeing'(3.87) in rank. 3) As for the hospital system, the highly perceived impediment factors by mothers are 'Seperation of baby from mother after birth'(2.78), 'Lack of space for breast-feeding in the hospital'(2.93), 'Lack of facility for informing the time for breast-feeding'(3.18) and 'Because of babys' preference artificial nipple by being accustomed to it in hospital(3.97), in rank. Meanwhile, those from nurses are "Seperation of baby from mother after birth",(1.92), "Inconsistency between hospital's nursing time and mother's breast secretion time" scretion time(2.97), "Lack of space for breast-feeding in the hospital"(3.39), and "Lack of facility for informing the time for breast-feeding"(3.74) 4) As for the medical personnels, the highestly perceived Impediment factor from mothers in "Lack of professional nurses for breast-feeding"(2.96), and the lowestly perceived one is "Doctors' reluctance"(4.75). Nurses perceived same as mothers, too. 5) As for the social factors, the highestly perceived impediment factor by mothers and nurses is "Inconvience of social activities"(2.83) and the lowestly ones are "The sense of self-sacrifice"(4.22) by mothers, and "The sense of old fashioned"(4.13) by nurses. 6) The difference of the perception of impediment factors between mothers and nurses is statistically significant only in mother factor.

Glucocorticoid는 비유기 동물의 유선세포 pro-lactin receptor(PRL-R) 발현을 증가시키며, 전반적인 유선세포의 유합성 작용을 활성시킴으로 유합성 능력을 증진시킨다. 유선세포 PRL-R 발현량 증가는 유생산량 향상과 밀접한 관계를 갖는다. 본 실험은 비유중기의 재래산양의 유합성 능력을 향상시키고자, 0.05. 0.1과 0.2 g hydrocortisone을 5ml의 생리식염수에 현탁하여, 정맥투여하고 유선세포 PRL-R와 $\alpha$-유단백 질 mRNAs 발현 량을 조사하였다. 대조구로는 5$m\ell$의 생리식염수를 정맥투여 하였다. 24시간 후 유선조직을 채취하여 $\alpha$-유단백질과 PRL-R mRNA 발현량을 competitive PCR(polymerase chain reaction)로 발현량을 조사하였다. Hydrocortisone 처리 24시간 후 재래산양 유선세포의 PRL-R mRNA 발현량은 대조구의 PRL-R mRNA 발현량과 유의한 차이가 없었다. $\alpha$-유단백질 mRNA 발현은 대조구에 비하여 0.05g hydrocortisone투여구는 37%, 0.1g hydrocortisone 투여구는 630%, 0.2g hydrocortisone 투여구는 386% 증가하였다. Hydrocortison 처리에 의한 유선세포 PRL-R mRNA 발현에 변화가 없었으나 $\alpha$-유단백질 mRNA 발현 증가는 세포 내 기능성 단백질 발현과 세포 외부로 분비되는 단백질의 시간에 따른 발현양상의 차이인 것으로 사려된다. 본 연구에서 비유중기 재래산양에 hydrocortisone 투여는 $\alpha$-유단백질 mRNA 발현을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다.

This study presents results of surveys conducted Seoul area using structured questionnaire developed by researchers to determine the degree of recognition and practice of breast-feeding. The subjects were mothers of 255 childs 1-36 months of age who have experienced breast feeding over one month. Recognition of breastfeeding was significantly associated with "baby's health", "emotional relationship between mother and infant", "mother's health", "for economic reasons". The majority of mothers got information of breastfeeding through booklets(64.7%), from her mothers(44.7%), through T.V or Radio (45.5%), School education(41.6%) from mother in law(36.5%), and did not perceive professional advice from nurses or doctors as important. "Lack of milk" was the predominant reason for for terminating breastfeeding. Efforts for practice of breastfeeding was comparatively high because of experienced mothers of breastfeeding. Some of them were "frying to take liguid diet and nurtitional food for increasing secretion of milk", "fed on by infant-demanded schedule". Duration of breastfeeding was under on month (31.0%), 1-3 months(25.5%), 3-6 months(19.6%), 6-9 months (11.0%). Degree of recognition and practice of breastfeeding was significantly correlated with mother's educational background, location of delivary(big hopital), Rooming in, over 5 months of breastfeeding. Based on the results of this study, we suggest that effective and supportive breastfeeding program developed by nurses have to provide to mothers of infants to take an important role in breastfeeding.

본 연구는 1962년 한국인 영양권장량의 제정부터 2010년 한국인 영양섭취기준 개정에 이르기까지 성인과 임신 수유부의 단백질의 섭취권장량 산출방법과 섭취권장량의 변화 추이를 살펴보았다. 1. 성인의 단백질 섭취권장량은 1989년까지 요인가산법을, 그 이후에는 질소균형연구를 활용하여 설정되었다. 요인가산법을 적용하였던 시기는 표준단백질 최소 필요량 또는 불가피 질소손실량을 기본 요인으로 하고 식이단백질의 이용율을 적용하였으며, 질소균형연구를 적용하였던 시기는 질소평형 유지에 필요한 식이단백질의 최소 필요량을 기본 요인으로 하였다. 그리고 개인 차, 스트레스 등의 조정 요인을 반영하여 단백질 섭취권장량을 계산하였다. 단백질 섭취권장량은 남성 50~80g/일, 여성 45~70g/일이었으며, 남성의 섭취권장량이 여성보다 크고, 연령대가 높을수록 섭취권장량은 감소하였다. 2. 임신부의 단백질 부가섭취권장량은 태아의 발육에 기인하는 단백질 축적량을 기본 요인으로 하고 식이단백질 이용율 등의 조정요인을 적용하여 산출하였고, 10~30g/일이었으며, 2010년에는 임신 기간을 3분하여 각각 0, 15, 30g/일을 제시하였다. 3. 수유부의 단백질 부가섭취권장량은 모유로 분비되는 단백질의 양을 기본 요인으로 하고 식이단백질 이용율 등의 조정요인을 적용하여 산출하였고, 20~30g/일이었으며, 시기별 증감 경향은 나타나지 않았다. 앞으로 체중 대신 제지방체중을 적용하는 단백질 섭취권장량의 산출 공식이 마련될 필요성이 있으며, 에너지와 마찬가지로 섭취하는 식이단백질의 조성에 근거한 개인별 섭취권장량의 계산방법 고안을 제언한다. 그리고 수유부의 경우 수유 기간을 구분하여 기간별 단백질 부가섭취권장량의 제정을 제언한다.
