본 연구는 C5a에 의해 자극된 호중구에서 세포내 칼슘유리와 세포외부로부터 칼슘유입에 있어 protein kinase C와 protein tyrosine kinase의 관여 여부를 조사하였다. Protein kinase C 억제제인 staurosporine과 H-7은 C5a에 의해 자극된 호중구에서 세포내 칼슘유리를 억제하였으나, 세포막을 교차한 칼슘유입이나 세포내 칼슘농도 증가에 영향을 나타내지 않았다. C5a에 의한 세포내 칼슘유리와 칼슘유입은 protein tyrosine kinase 억제제인 genistein과 methyl-2,5-dihydroxycinnamate에 의해서 억제 되었다. ADP에 의해 야기된 세포내 칼슘농도의 증가는 genistein과 methyl-2,5-dihydroxycinnamate에 의해서 억제되었으나 staurosporine과 H-7의 영향은 받지 않았다. Genistein과 methyl-2,5-dihydroxy-cinnamate는 thapsigargin을 처리한 호중구에서 칼슘유입을 감소시켰으나 이에 대한 staurosporine 과 H-7의 효과는 나타나지 않았다. 호중구를 phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate로 전처치하였을때 세포내 칼슘증가에 미치는 C5a의 자극 효과는 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 부터 protein tyrosine kinase는 C5a에 의해 활성화된 호중구에서 세포내 칼슘유리와 세포막을 교차한 칼슘유입의 조절에 관여할 것으로 추정된다.

Platelet-activating factor (PAF)에 의하여 자극된 호중구 respiratory burst, 탈과립과 세포질 칼슘농도의 증가에 있어 protein kinase C와 protein tyrosine kinase의 역할을 관찰하였다. PAF에 의하여 자극된 호중구에서 superoxide 및 $H_2O_2$의 생성과 myeloperoxidase와 acid phosphatase의 유리는 protein kinase C 억제제인 staurosporine과 H-7 그리고 protein tyrosine kinase 억제제인 genistein과 tyrphostin에 의하여 억제되었다. PAF에 의한 호중구 세포내 칼슘농도의 증가는 staurosporine, genistein과 methyl-2,5-dihydroxycinnamate에 의하여 억제 되었다. Staurosporine은 PAF에 의하여 자극된 호중구에서 세포내 칼슘유리와 망간유입을 억제 하였다. Genistein과 methyl-2,5-dihydroxycinnamate는 PAF에 의한 망간유입을 억제하였으나, 세포내 칼슘유리에 대한 이들의 효과는 관찰되지 않았다. PMA에 의하여 활성화된 호중구에서 세포내 칼슘농도의 증가에 대한 PAF의 자극효과는 감소되었다. Protein kinase C와 protein tyrosine kinase는 PAF에 의하여 자극된 호중구에서의 respiratory burst, lysosomal enzyme유리와 칼슘동원에 관여할 것으로 제시된다. 세포내 칼슘농도의 증가는 protein kinase의 영향을 다르게 받는 세포내 칼슘유리와 세포외부로 부터의 칼슘유입에 의하여 이루어질 것으로 추정된다. Protein kinase C가 활성화되어 있는 상태에서 세포내 칼슘동원에 대한 PAF의 자극작용은 감소될 것으로 시사된다.

A clinical report indicates that 'Geijibokryunghwan(GBH) is very effective in treating thrombosis in those patients who have difficulties with more conventional antithrombotic drugs. The isolation and identification of various compounds from this plant and the same genus have been reported by several groups. However, the pharmaceutical effect of the GBH on superoxide generation in human neutrophils has not been studied. In the present report, we investigated the possibility of using herbal medicine as an alternative therapy. In particular, we studied tremor in antiatheroscleosis. In this report, we shows the GBH extract can be used as a potential atherosclerosis preventive agent in human. The effect of GBH on stimulus-induced superoxide generation and phosphorylation of tyrosine residues of protein in human neutrophils was investigated. In a conclusion, GBH suppressed tyrosine phosphorylase in a dose-dependent manner, and may have pharmacoceutical applications. These data suggest that GBH extracts merits investigation as a potential anti-atherosclerogenic agent in humans.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify levels of anxiety, stress hormone, lymphocytes, and neutrophils of the nursing students before an examination and to examine effects of social support on those variables related to taking examinations. Methods: Thirty eight healthy nursing students participated. They completed the questionnaire including state anxiety, test anxiety (VAS scale) and social support two weeks before the exam and again just before the exam. Simultaneously, a venous sample for ACTH, cortisol, lymphocytes & neutrophils count was drawn by a trained nurse. Descriptive statistics, paired t-test, student t-test, and Pearson's correlation with SPSS/WIN 14.0 were used to analyze the data. Results: Test anxiety scores and cortisol level on the exam day showed a significant increment compared with those on the non-exam day. The participants with higher levels of total social support scores showed significantly lower state anxiety on the exam day than those with lower levels of total social support scores. Conclusion: These data indicate a possible alteration in cortisol responsiveness to academic stress in nursing students. Social support would play an important role in modulation of academic stress.

Asthma is a chronic and allergic inflammation in the lung, mainly caused by house dust mites (HDM). Recent studies have reported Der p 38 and Der f 38 (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and D. farinae, respectively) as crucial allergens of HDMs. This study investigates the different allergic effects of Der p 38 and Der f 38 in an asthma-like mouse model. Lung infiltration of neutrophils was induced by intranasal administration of Der p 38 and Der f 38, with stronger infiltration being observed after exposure to Der p 38. Intranasal and intraperitoneal administration of Der p 38 induced the infiltration of neutrophils and eosinophils in the lung, which was similar to the effect subsequent to Der f 38 administration. Although the number of mast cells was increased, no significant difference was obtained between the effects of both allergens. In TLR4 knockout BALB/c mice, Der p 38 and Der f 38 had no effect on the infiltration of neutrophils, eosinophils, and mast cells. Additionally, allergenicity induced by Der p 38 and Der f 38 in the basophils of Der p38+/Der f 38+ asthmatic subjects was similar, although Der f 38 presented stronger allergenicity in basophils of Der p38+/Der f 38+ allergic patients than Der p 38. These findings contribute to understanding the role of similar allergen components derived from different species in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases.

Human neutrophils play an essential role in the innate immune response and are involved in the pathogenesis of the severe and corticosteroid-resistant asthma. Asthma is characterized by an infiltration of inflammatory cells into the lung and by a cytokine release. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) on the chemotaxis and apoptosis of neutrophils which were isolated from healthy subjects. The BALF of subjects with asthma induces the blood neutrophil chemotaxis in the opposite of that in normal subjects. The IL-8, IL-6, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) levels in BALF were higher in subjects with asthma than in normal subjects. The BALF of normal and asthmatic subjects has no effect on neutrophil apoptosis of BALF. MCP-1 delays the constitutive apoptosis of normal blood neutrophils, but has no effect in normal BALF neutrophils. These results may indicate that inflammatory factors secreted by the lung tissue of patients with asthma trigger the neutrophil chemotaxis and also induce the neutrophil dysregulation.

To establish the effective ways to prevent bovine mastitis, the study has been performed to investigate the attributable factors causing down-regulation of immune responses in mammary gland of non-lactating cows. Lymphocytes from peripheral blood and mammary gland secretions(MGS) were obtained from normal healthy cows and mastitic cows, respectively. Lymphoblastogenesis were investigated carefully by adding different concentrations of supernatants collected from pure-cultures of neutrophils seperated from peripheral blood and MGS, respectively. The results obtained are as follows ; 1. Lymphoblastogenesis activity stimulated by Con A, PWM and PHA were significantly reduced in MGS from mastitic cows. 2. Supernatants collected from pure-culture of neutrophils separated both from peripheral blood and MGS showed inhibitory effect on mitogenic lymphoblastogenesis. 3. Supernatants from mammary gland neutrophils have shown 7 times more inhibitory activity than those from peripheral blood and this inhibitory effect was increased in proportion to increasing concentrations of supernatants when those were added to lymphoblast cells in culture.

Der p 2는 알레르기 질환과 관련이 있는 집먼지 진드기의 주요 알러젠이다. 알레르기 질환의 병인기전은 림프구의 사이토카인 분비와 호중구의 세포고사와 관련이 있다. 본 연구에서는 Der p 2가 림프구의 사이토카인 분비를 유도하고, 유도된 사이토카인이 호중구의 세포고사 조절에 효과가 있는 지를 확인하였다. Der p 2는 정상인과 알레르기 질환의 림프구에서 IL-6, IL-8, MCP-1, GM-CSF의 분비를 증가시켰다. Der p 2는 호중구의 세포고사에 어떠한 효과도 없었지만, Der p 2로 림프구를 자극한 뒤 모은 상층액이 호중구의 자발적 세포고사를 억제시켰다. Der p 2는 정상인의 림프구와 호중구를 공동배양에서 자극한 것 보다 알레르기 질환의 림프구와 호중구의 공동배양에서 자극했을 때 호중구의 세포고사를 더 크게 억제시켰다. Der p 2의 림프구와 호중구의 조절기전 규명은 알레르기 질환의 병인기전을 규명하는데 유용한 결과가 될 것이다.
