줄새우아재비, Palaemon serrifer의 뇌와 흉부신경절에 분포하는 신경분비세포와 생식소발달과의 관련 기능을 알아보고자 생식소발달의 조직학적 변화를 조사하여 생식년주기를 밝히고, 뇌와 흉부신경절에 분포하는 신경분비세포를 분류하여 분비활성변화를 조사하였으며, 생식소발달에 따른 이들 분비세포들의 활성변화를 연구하였다. 1. 줄새우아재비, Palaemon serrifer는 수컷의 경우 1월부터, 암컷은 3월부터 생식소가 성장하기 시작하는 성장기를 거쳐, 성숙기, 완숙 및 산란기, 퇴화 및 휴지기의 연속된 생식연주기를 가지며, 주산란기 는 7-8월이었다. 2. 신경분비세포로서 뇌에서는 A-, B-그리고 E-cell이 흉부신경절에서는 A-, A'- 그리고 B-cell이 구분되었으며 A-와 A'-cell은 크기가 $80-90{\mu}m$로 가장 큰 세포였고 B-cell은 $30-40{\mu}m$의 크기였으며, E-cell은 $10-15{\mu}m$ 크기로 미세한 세포였다. 3. 활성중인 A-와 B-cell은 CHP와 AF에, 그리고 B-cell은 AF에만 양성반응을 나타냈었고, A-cell은 분비과립이 축색으로 이동하는 것 외에 주변방출(peripheral discharge)을 나타냈다. 4. 신경분비세포의 활성변화를 생식소발달상태와 연관하여 볼 때 난소의 성장과 성숙시기에는 E-cell, 배란시기에는 A-cell의 분비활성이 강했고, 정소의 성장시기에는 E-cell, 정자의 변태 및 방정시기에는 A-cell의 강한 분비활성이 관찰되었다.

Anti-proliferation of methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome on oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells were investigated. In order to elucidate the involvement of telomerase inhibitory activity as a part of anti-proliferative effect of Curcuma rhizome on cancer cells, we measured telomerase activity in Curcuma rhizome extract-treated cancer cells. The concentration inhibited cell proliferation to 50% $(IC_{50})$ of the methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome against oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) cells and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells were 21.30 ${\mu}g/ml$ and 39.3${\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome showed inhibitory telomerase inhibitory effect which is required for cancer cell immortality. Therefore, it seems that the anticancer effect of methanol extract of Curcuma rhizome is at least partially due to telomerase inhibitory effect. Five fraction samples were prepared according to its polarity differences and analyzed anti-proliferative effects of each fraction samples on oral squamous cell carcinoma and osteosarcoma cells. Anticancer effect was observed in dichloromethane, and ethylacetate fractions. The highest anticancer effect was found in dichloromethane fraction which had $IC_{50}$ value of 23.3 ${\mu}g/ml$ and 10.5${\mu}g/ml$ against oral squamous cell carcinoma (KB) cells and osteosarcoma (HOS) cells, respectively.

The surface region of commercial stainless steel 304 and 316 plates has been modified through deposition of the multi-layered coatings composed of titanium film ($0.1{\mu}m$) and gold film ($1-2{\mu}m$) by an electron beam evaporation method. XRD patterns of the stainless steel plates deposited with conductive metal films showed the peaks of the external gold film and the stainless steel substrate. Surface microstructural morphologies of the stainless steel bipolar plates modified with multi-layered coatings were observed by AFM and FE-SEM images. The stainless steel plates modified with $0.1{\mu}m$ titanium film and $1{\mu}m$ gold film showed microstructure of grains of under 100 nm diameter. The external surface of the stainless steel plates deposited with $0.1{\mu}m$ titanium film and $2{\mu}m$ gold film represented somewhat grain growth of Au grains in FE-SEM image. The electrical resistance and water contact angle of the stainless steel bipolar plates modified with multi-layered coatings were examined with the thickness of the gold film.

The biological effects of the water extracts of Rhus Verniciflua Stokes (RVS) were evaluated by protection against hydroxyl radicals. Antioxidative activities were measured using both 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and thiocyanate method. Also we used the Glucose oxidase (GO) 20 mU/$\textrm{m}{\ell}$ hydroxyl radical generating system in mouse forebrain cell culture. Water was used for ex-traction from RVS as a solvent which has high polarity especially. In DPPH method, the antioxidative activities of the crude water extract were stronger than any other extracts of low polar-solvents. In the antioxidative effects of mouse forebrain culture using 20 mU/$\textrm{m}{\ell}$ GO, cell viabilities were evaluated 65.6%, 68.8% at 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$. 5 $\mu\textrm{g}$ addition of crude water extracts (30 mg/$\textrm{m}{\ell}$) respectively. 10 $\mu\textrm{g}$ addition of crude water extracts had more than 86.1% cell viabilities, P<0.0l significantly, compared with the group treated with GO alone. In comparison with the antioxidative activities of several commercial antioxidants (ascorbic acid, $\alpha$-tocopherol, catalase, serum), 273 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$\textrm{m}{\ell}$ addition of crude water extracts (300 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$\textrm{m}{\ell}$) showed equivalent antioxidative effect to 25 uM ascorbic acid.

The effect of light scattering layers (400 nm, TiO$_2$ particle) of 4 $\mu$m thickness on the dye-sensitized solar cell has been investigated with a 12 $\mu$m thickness of photo-anode (20 nm, TiO$_2$ particle). Two different structures of scattering layers (separated and back) were applied to investigate the light transmitting behaviors and solar cell properties. The light transmittance and cell efficiency significantly improved with inserting scattering layers. The back scattering layer structure had more effective transmitting behavior, but separated scattering layer (center: 2 $\mu$m, back: 2 $\mu$m) structure (9.83% of efficiency) showing higher efficiency (0.6%), short circuit current density (0.26 mA/cm$^2$) and fill factor (0.02). The inserting separating two scattering layers improved the light harvesting, and relatively thin back scattering layer (2 $\mu$m of thickness) minimized interruption of ion diffusion in liquid electrolyte.

본 시험은 톨페스큐의 잎과 뿌리신장 및 동화산물의 생장점부위의 종적인 해부학적 고찰을 통해 세포분열, 신장, 그리고 성숙속도등 세포역학 및 세포의 생리적 반응에 대한 질소의 효과를 연구하고자 수행하였다. 공시품종은 경당 수량성이 높은 HYT 품종과 경당 수량성이 낮은 LYT 품종이었으며, 이들은 엽신장 및 분얼성 등 생리적 특성이 다른 품종이다. 1. 근관, 표피세포, 피층세포, 도관세포로 크게 구분되는 뿌리생장부위는 약 3.2mm로 잎생장부위(약 25~30 mm)보다 훨씬 짧았으며, 근관부위는 약 0.4~0.5 mm였다. 2. 근관세포의 경우 분열시 크기는 약 5 $\mu{m}$, 최종크기는 약 40 $\mu{m}$였으며 피층세포와 도관세포의 분열시 크기는 각가 8.5 $\mu{m}$와 13.0 $\mu{m}$, 최종 크기는 각각 120$\mu{m}$와 650$\mu{m}$로 큰 차이가 있었다. 3. 뿌리생장부위의 피층세포와 도관세포의 분열 직후 또는 최종크기는 질소시용수준에 영향을 받지 않았으나, 세포신장속도는 질소시용수준에 영향을 받아 높은 질소수준(200ppm)에서 보다 낮은 질소수준(50ppm)에서 약 2배 정도 빨랐다. 4. 뿌리세포의 분열속도는 질소의 영향을 받아 피층세포의 경우 50ppm N 수준에서 시간당 약 4.5 세포, 200ppm N 수준에서는 시간당 약 2.3 세포였으며, 도관세포의 경우는 각각 시간당 0.9 세포와 0.6 세포였다. 5. 뿌리세포가 분열 후 최대로 신장하기까지는 시간은 피층세포의 경우 50ppm N에서 약 21 시간, 200ppm N에서 약 43시간이 소요되었으며, 도관세포의 경우는 각각 약 37 시간과 73 시간이 소요되었다. 6. 뿌리생장부위의 피층세포와 도관세포의 비율을 조사한 결과, 세포 분열부위에서는 1:1이었으나, 세포신장부위에서는 그 비율이 증가해 생장점으로부터 1.0 mm 위치에서 5:1로 증가해 계속 유지되었다. 7. 뿌리생장에 대한 질소의 효과를 분석해 볼 때, 질소는 뿌리세포의 크기보다는 세포분열과 세포신장속도에 크게 영향함을 알 수 있었다.

The induction of detoxification enzymes by benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) and its synthetic N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) conjugate (NAC-BITC) was examined in Hepa1c1c7 murine hepatoma cells. BITC and NAC-BITC inhibited Hepa1c1c7 cell growth in a dose-dependent manner. Cell growth was 4.5~57.2% lower in Hepa1c1c7 cells treated with $0.1{\sim}1.0{\mu}M$ BITC than in control-treated Hepa1c1c7 cells. The NAC-BITC treatment had a similar inhibitory pattern on Hepa1c1c7 cell growth; $0.5{\mu}M$ and $10{\mu}M$ NAC-BITC decreased cell growth by 13.6% and 47.4%, respectively. Treatment of Hepa1c1c7 cells with $0.1{\sim}2.0{\mu}M$ BITC also elicited a dose-response effect on the induction of quinone reductase quinone reductase (QR) activity and QR mRNA expression. Treatment with $1{\mu}M$ and $2{\mu}M$ BITC caused 1.8- and 2.8-fold inductions of QR mRNA, respectively. By comparison, treatment with $1{\mu}M$ and $2{\mu}M$ NAC-BITC caused 1.6-and 1.9-fold inductions of QR mRNA, respectively. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1 and CYP2E1 induction were lower in $0.1{\sim}2{\mu}M$ BITC-treated cells than in control-treated cells. CYP2E1 activity was 1.2-fold greater in $0.1{\mu}M$ NAC-BITC-treated cells than in control-treated cells. However, the CYP2E1 activity of cells treated with higher concentrations (i.e., $1{\sim}2{\mu}M$) of NAC-BITC was similar to the activity of control-treated cells. Considering the potential of isothiocyanatesto prevent cancer, these results provide support for the use of BITC and NAC-BITC conjugates as chemopreventive agents.

In this study, the antiproliferative effects of the metformin was evaluated on MCF-7 Cells (human breast adenocarcinoma cell line). For this purpose cell kinetic parameters including cell proliferation assay, mitotic index and labelling index analysis were used. $30{\mu}M$, $65{\mu}M$ and $130{\mu}M$ Metformin doses were applied to cells for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The results showed that there was a significant decrease in cell proliferation, mitotic index and labelling index for all experimental groups (p<0.05) for all applications.
