Fourty eight derivatives of 2-(1-oxyalkyl)-1,4-dioxy-9,10-anthraquinone were synthesized, and their antitumor activity was evaluated. On the whole, 2-(1-hydroxyalkyl)-1,4-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinones (DHAQ=1,4-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone) showed stronger cytotoxic activity against L1210 cells than 2-(l-hydroxyalkyl)-1,4-dimethoxy-9,10-anthraquinones(DMAQ =1,4-dimethoxy-9,10-anthraquinone), implying that free hydroxy groups at C-1 and C-4 of the anthraquinone structure are necessary for the cytotoxic activity. The bioactivity of 2-(lhydroxyalkyl)-DHAQ derivatives differed according to the size of alkyl group at C-1;while the elongation of alkyl group over 7 carbon atoms failed to enhance the bioactivity, the derivatives possessing alkyl moiety of 1-6 carbon atoms showed an increase in the cytotoxicity and the antitumor activity in Sarcoma-180; 2-hydroxymethyl-DHAQ ($ED_{50}$, $15\mu\textrm{g}$/ml; T/C, 125%), 2-(1 -hydroxyethyl)-DHAQ($1.9{\mu}g/ml;139.2%)$;, 2-(1-hydroxypropyl)-DHAQ ($7.2{\mu}g$/ml; 135.1%), 2-(1-hydroxybutyl)-DHAQ ($10.2{\mu}g/ml; 125.3%)$, 2-(1-hydroxypentyl)-DHAQ ($23.7{\mu}g/ml; 110.1%$). and 2-(1-hydroxyhexyl)-DHAQ ($58{\mu}g/ml;108%$). Next, 2-(1-Hydroxyalkyl)-DHAQ derivatives were acetylated to produce 2-(1-acetoxyalkyl)-DHAQ analogues. Although the acetylation somewhat enhanced the cytotoxicity, but not the antitumor action. In addition, the presence of phenyl group at $C-1^{l}$ enhanced the cytotoxicity and the T/C value, compared to alkyl groups of same size; 2-(1-hydroxy-1-phenyl)-DHAQ ($ED_{50}$, $5.6{\mu}g$, T/C, 137%).

Objective : Pamooltang (PM) and Sipjeondaebotang (SC) are used in Korea to treat many diseases such as sterility, menstrual disorder, and general prostration. We made a comparative study of PM and SC which are different in component ratio between Astragalus membranaceus BUNGE (AC) and Cinnamomum cassia PRESL. (CC). Methods : Anti-oxidation was studied by 1.1.-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and anti-inflammation was investigated by prostaglandin $E_2\;(PGE_2)$ and nitric oxide (NO) inhibition assay. For immune response activities, this study used NO synthesis on RAW 264.7 cells and splenocyte proliferation. Results : The results showed that PM and SC components had no significant effect of anti-oxidation or anti-inflammation. However, we observed their effects upon inducible NO synthesis in Raw 264.7 cells. The SC2 stimulated NO synthesis $11.42\pm1.36{\mu}M$ (control; $0.89\pm0.00{\mu}M$). PM and SC components had the effect of immune response which in a dose-dependent manner significantly induced the splenocyte proliferation. The splenocyte proliferation induced by SC2 was higher than others at the concentration of 1, 10, 100, 1000 and 2000 ${\mu}g/ml$. The SC8 was shown to up-regulate IgG, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ 3.3 times, 1000 ${\mu}g/ml$ 2.6 times as a control. Conclusions : These results may have important implications for our understanding of the ratios of AC and CC in SC.

The influence of phenylalanine (Phe) in the medium on protein synthesis of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) was examined. CEF was derived from 9-d-old embryos by trypsin-EDTA digestion. To examine the deficiency of Phe in the medium, CEF was cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) with or without Phe. CEF was also cultured in Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (PBS ($Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$)) with or without $400{\mu}m$ Phe in order to examine the effect of Phe supplementation. All media were supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal calf serum. After incubation for 6, 30 and 54 h, protein synthesis was measured by the incorporation of L-[2, $6-^{3}H$] Phe into CEF for further 18 h. Protein synthesis of CEF cultured in DMEM was higher than that in PBS ($Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$). High specific radioactivity of Phe due to the low concentration of Phe in the medium resulted in the apparent increase in protein synthesis of CEF. Protein synthesis cultured in PBS ($Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$) with Phe did not increase during 72 h of cell culture.

A strain which showed cephalosporin C resistance and 7-aminocephalosporanic acid sensitivity was isolated from nature. Among the isolates, SS5 was sensitive to cephalosporin C, penicillin G, ampicillin, 7-aminocephalosporanic acid, 6-aminopenicillanic acid, and 7-aminodeacetoxy cephatosporanic acid at concentrations of 1,000 $\mu $g/ml, 2,000 $\mu $g/ml, 3,000 $\mu $g/ml, 30 $\mu $g/ml 100 $\mu $g/ml and 100 $\mu $g/ml, respectively. But SS5 was sensitive at very low concentration of chloramphenicol, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin and tetracycline. Since SS5 was sensitive to 7-ACA (30 $\mu $g/ml) and didn't have $\beta $-lactamase activity on the cephalosporin C, SS5 could be useful as an indicator strain for the production of 7-ACA, which is an important precursor for the synthesis of many semisynthetic cephalosporins.

The present study has been carried out to elucidate the antiestrogenic effects of tamoxifen on RNA and protein synthesis in uteri of immature rats. Immature female Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated into 4 groups and injected with $5{\mu}g$ of estradiol-$17{\beta}$, $50{\mu}g$ of tamoxifen, a combination of both, or vehicle only subcutaneously three times with an interval of 24 hours respectively. The specific activities of $^3H$-uridine incorporation into uterine RNA and those of $^3H$-leucine incorporation into uterine protein were measured before and 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the above treatments. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. Tamoxifen itself increased RNA synthesis an hour after treatment(169.18% of control), but it's specific activity was reduced to control level after 3 hours. Tamoxifen inhibited significantly (p<0.01) the activity of RNA synthesis of estradiol-$17{\beta}$. 2. The increasing rate of protein synthesis was lower in tamoxifen treated group than that in estradiol-$17{\beta}$ treated group. While the rate was steadily increased up to 357.4% of control by estradiol-$17{\beta}$ in 72 hours, tamoxifen itself failed to increase the rate after 24 hours and significantly (p<0.01) inhibited the activity of estradiol-$17{\beta}$(-167.4%).

Mouse mammary epithelial cells(NMuMG) were plated onto 24 well phates(100,000 cells/well), in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum. After serum starvation for 24 hours, EGF)0~100ng/ml) was added simultaneously with IGF-I(10ng/ml), 1$\mu$M photoreactive cAMP(4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl adenosine-3',5' cyclic monophosphate, DMNB) or IGF-I plus DMNB. After 2 hours, the cells were expposed to UV light(300nm, 3 second pulse0 in order to activate DMNB which induces a rapid transient increase in intracellular cAMP upon UV irradiation. DNA synthesis was estimated as incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA(1 hour pulse with 1$\mu$Ci/ml, 18~19 hours after UV exposure). Without IGF-I or DMNB, EGF(10 or 100ng/ml) increased DNA synthesis from 8,362 dpm/well in control to 16,345 or 18,684 dpm/well with EGF(pooled SE=1,239 dpm/well, P<0.05). IGF-I or IGF-I plus DMNB alone increased DNA synthesis from 8,362 dpm/well in control to 17,307 or 20,427 dpm/well, respectively(P<0.05). Addition of IGF-I, DMNB or IGF-I plus DMNB into 0~100ng/ml EGF did not significantly change the shape of dose response curve of EGF alone. In other experiment, EGF or IGF-I plus DMNB into 10ng/ml EGF group exhibited interaction effect in DNAsynthesis [EGF(10ng/ml)=18,497; IGF-I＋EGF=22,837; DMNB＋EGF=20,658 ; IGF-I＋DMNB＋EGF=29,658, pooled SE=1,055, P<0.05]. These results indicate that simultaneous activation of EGF, IGF-I and intracellular cAMP interact in DNA synthesis of mouse mammary epithelial cells.

본 논문에서는 저 비용, 고해상도 반도체 지문 센서칩에 대하여 논한다. 제작된 테스트 칩은 $64{\times}256$ 센싱 셀(sensing cell)로 구성되어 있으며, 칩의 크기는 $2.7mm{\times}10.8mm$이다. sensing cell 내부에서 일어나는 전하 재분포를 감지하는 새로운 방식을 이용하여 내부의 기생 캐패시턴스의 영향을 효과적으로 제거하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안하는 방법은 센싱 셀의 감지 능력을 키우므로 센싱 셀의 크기를 줄일 수 있고, 따라서 고해상도의 이미지를 추출할 수 있다. 표준 0.6${\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하여 제작된 칩은 600dpi의 해상도를 가지는 지문 이미지를 추출한다. 제조 단가를 낮추기 위하여 지문의 부분 이미지들로부터 전체 지문 이미지를 얻어내는 이미지 합성 방법의 가능성과 문제점에 대해서도 논의하였다.

Background: Sodium salicylate (SS) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for the treatment of neuralgia or pain from rheumatoid arthritis. When abused or used in excess, SS can induce cytotoxicity. The present study examined whether SS has a neurotoxic effect. Methods: Cell viability was examined by MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2,5-dipheny ltetrazolium bromide] assay and Sulforhodamine (SRB) assay after cultivating dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons derived from neonatal mouse. These cells were treated with various concentrations of SS for 24 hours. In addition, the amount of protein synthesis against SS was measured in these cultures. Results: Cell viability (20, $40{\mu}g/ml$ SS) significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, SS inhibited protein synthesis after the exposure of cultured mouse DRG neurons to $30{\mu}g/ml$ of SS for 24 hours. Conclusions: The present study suggests that SS is toxic in cultured DRG neurons derived from neonatal mouse by decreasing cell viability and the amount of protein synthesis.
