  • Various human host cell lines, which are more effective than the other original human cell lines, have been developed and used. Highly efficient human cell line can be obtained from the fusion between human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) and human Burkitt's lymphoma cells (Namalwa). Fused cell line has the advantages of both cell lines such as the high transfection efficacy of HEK293 cells and the constitutive expression of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome which is related with high expression of target protein and anti-apoptotic growth of Namalwa cells. In this study, characterization of two original cell lines was performed by using design of experiment (DOE) considering cell maintenance, media development, optimization of culture condition, and scale-up. The formation of aggregates was apparent with high glutamine concentration at more than 6 mM. Supplementation of hydrolysates showed positive effects on the growth performances of HEK293 cells. On the contrary, Namalwa cells showed negative results. It was confirmed that Namalwa cells were more sensitive to lower temperature at $35^{\circ}C$ and hyperosmotic condition over 260 mOsm/kg. In addition, both cell lines showed limited growth in 3-L bioreactor due to shear stress.

  • This study was attempted to investigate on renal effect of ($\pm$)6-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-phenol 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3 benzazepine (SKF 81297), dopamine $D_1$ receptor agonist, in dog. SKF 81297, when gluten intravenously, produced diuretic action along with the increases of renal plasma flow (RPF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), amounts of N $a^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ excreted into urine ( $E_{Na}$ , $E_{K}$) and osmolar clearance ( $C_{osm}$). It also decreased the reabsorption rates of N $a^{+}$ and $K^{+}$ in renal tubule ( $R_{Na}$ , $R_{K}$) and free water clearance ( $C_{H2O}$), whereas ratios of $K^{+}$ agonist N $a^{+}$ in urine and filtration fraction (FF) was not changed. SKF 81297, when administered into a renal artery, elicited diuresis both in experimental kidney given the SKF 81297 and control kidney not given, while the effect was more remarkable in experimental kidney than those exhibited in control kidney. SKF 81297 given into carotid artery also exhibited diuresis, the potency at this time, compared to those induced by intravenous SKF 81297, was magnusgreat. Above results suggest that SKF 81297 produces diuresis by both indirect action through changes of central function and direct action being induced in kidney. Central diuretic action is mediated by improvement of renal hemodynamics, but direct action by inhibition of electrolytes reabsorption in renal tubule.enal tubule. tubule.

  • These studies were carried out ot investigate on the transferred embryo development following ultrarapid frozen for 8-cell and morula of in vitro fertilization mouse embryos. The post-thaw embryo survival was evaluated and compared by cell stage of embryos and by equilibration time before ultrarapid freezing. The results obatined were summerized as follows: 1. The effects of equilibration time of 3 vs. 6 minutes before ultrarapid freezing and after thawing on the morphological survival and the viability of 8-cell and morulas embryos were not significant. 2. When the ultrarapid frozen-thawed 32 eight-cell and 33 morula embryos, and 30 fresh blastocysts were transferred to pseudopregnant recipient mice, the number of normal offsprings produced were 9(28.1%), 14(42.4%) and 18(60.0%), respectively. From the above resutls, it was concluded that the optimal conditions of pH osmolality of the media for mouse IVF and embryo culture, and the period of sperm preincubation might be 7.1, 310 mOsm and 120 min., respectively,a nd somewhat high conception rate might be resulted from transfer of frozen embryos of morula stage and fresh embryos of blastocyst stage.

  • The dopaminergic receptors were consisted of two distinct subtypes, $D_1$and $D_2$, each having different function. The present study was attempted to investigate the effects of R(-)-2,10,11-trihydroxy-N-n-propylnoraporphine (TNPA), a dopamine $D_2$receptor agonist, on renal function in dog. TNPA (5.0~15.0 $\mu$g/kg), when given into the vein, produced a dose-dependently antidiuresis along with the decrease in osmolar clearance ( $C_{osm}$) and urinary excretion of sodium and potassium ( $E_{Na}$ , and $E_{K}$). It also increased reabsorption rates of sodium and potassium in renal tubules ( $R_{Na}$ , $R_{K}$) without any changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), renal plasma flow (RPF) and free water clearance ( $C_{H2o}$). TNPA (0.5~1.5 $\mu$g/kg/min) infused into a renal artery decreased urine flow both in the experimental and the control kidneys. TNPA (1.5~5.0 $\mu$g/kg) administered via the carotid artery also greatly exhibited antidiuresis even at intravenously ineffective doses. Changes of renal function by TNPA given into both the renal artery and the carotid artery were almost the same aspect to those induced by intravenous TNPA. These results obtained from the present study suggest that TNPA produces antidiuresis by increasing the reabsorption rates of electrolytes in renal tubules, mainly distal tubule, through changing of central function.unction.

  • This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of renal function of NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG), inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, in dog and ra bbit. L-NOARG, when given intravenously in dogs, exhibited the decrease in urine flow (vol), renal plasma flow (RPF), osmolar clearance ($C_{osm}$) and amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine($E_{Na},\;E_K$). These renal functions of L-NOARG showed the same aspect in rabbit, too. L-NOARG, when administered into a renal artery, showed the same pattern as was obtained when given intravenously in both experimental and control kidney in dog. L-NOARG administered into the carotid artery showed the decrease in Vol, RPF, $E_{Na}$, in a low doses that did not show any effect when given intravenously. Above results suggest that L-NOARG produces antidiuretic action in dog and rabbit, and these antidiuretic actions may be mediated by central action.

  • Survival of 12.7 g (average body weight) Litopenaeus vannamei was examined at temperatures of 14, 16, 18, 28, 32, 34 and 36$^{\circ}C$ and salinities of l0, 20, 30 and 40 ppt after 7 days. Hemolymph osmolality was measured at 12 combinations of salinities (l0, 20, 30 and 40 ppt) and temperature levels (18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$) after 14 days. The results show that the species have their best survival between temperatures of 18 and 3$0^{\circ}C$ and salinity above 20 ppt. Hemolymph osmolality increased with increased salinity at all temperatures tested. The isosmotic point calculated from the linear relationship between hemolymph osmolality and medium osmolality and recorded as 826, 809 and 1,117 mOsm/kg which is equivalent to 29.4, 28.8 and 40.2 ppt at 18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The slopes obtained from the relationship between hemolymph osmolality and medium osmolality were 0.314, 0.276 and 0.541 for L. vannamei at 18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$, respectively, suggesting that the shrimp at 34$^{\circ}C$ regulated osmotic concentration much worse than those at 18 and 28$^{\circ}C$. This result also indicated that L. vannamei living at 34$^{\circ}C$, showed more fluctuation in hemolymph osmolality than those at 18 and 28$^{\circ}C$.

  • Glibenclamide(GLY)(1.0 and 3.0 mg/kg), an ATP-dependent $K^+$ channel blocker, when given into the vein in dogs, produced the diuretic action accompanied with the increase of osmolar clearance($C_{osm}$), urinary excretion of $Na^+$ and $K^+$ ($E_{Na}$, $E_K$), and with the decrease in reabsorption rates for $Na^+$ and $K^+$ in renal tubules ($R_{Na}$, $R_K$), and then ratios of $K^+$ against $Na^+$($K^+$/$Na^+$) were decreased. GLY did not affect mean arterial pressure at any doses used. At a low dose(0.1 mg/kg), GLY injected into a renal artery brought about the diurectic action in both experimental and control kidney, however at a higher dose(0.3 mg/kg), GLY appeared significant diuretic action in the control kidney, but not in experimental kidney and the decrease of glomerular filtration rates(GFR), renal plasma flow(RPF), $E_K$, and the increase in $E_{Na}$. In the control kidney, these changes in renal function exhibited the same aspect as shown in intravenous experiments. In experiments given into carotid artery of GLY(0.5 and 1.5 mg/kg), changes in all renal function included the increase in urine volume were the same pattern as shown in intravenous experiments. The above results suggest that glibenclamide produces diuretic action through central function and the action site of the GLY in kidney is the renal distal tubules in dogs.

  • 최근 전 세계가 극단적 집중호우로 인한 대규모 홍수로 인해 극심한 몸살을 앓고 있다. 특히, 설계빈도를 초과하는 강우로 인해 도시지역에서 발생하는 도시침수는 그 특성상 막대한 인명과 재산상의 피해를 유발하므로 이를 사전에 예방하고 피해를 줄이기 위한 노력이 매우 시급한 실정이다. 도시유역 침수 해석을 위한 수치모의는 대상 유역의 현재 대비 상황을 판단할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 하수관로 증설 효과 파악, 빗물저류조의 침수저감 효과 분석, 빗물배수펌프장의 적정용량 파악 등에 매우 효율적이다. 정확도 높은 도시침수 해석을 위해서는 고해상도 DEM 또는 DSM 지형자료뿐만 아니라 토지이용도 및 지하에 매설되어 있는 하수관망(하수관로, 맨홀, 배수펌프장 등) 자료의 활용이 필수적이다. 그러나 저개발 국가나 미계측유역의 경우에는 신뢰도 높은 하수관망 자료를 얻기가 매우 어려울 뿐만 아니라 해당 자료가 존재하지 않는 경우도 빈번해 도시침수 해석이 곤란한 경우가 다수 발생한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 GIS 형태로 제공되는 Open Street Map(OSM)의 도로망 정보를 이용해 가상의 하수관망을 생성하는 방법론을 제시하고 서울시 사당유역을 미계측유역으로 가정해 가상의 하수관망을 생성해 그 적용성을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 결과는 하수관망 자료의 획득이 곤란한 지역의 도시침수 예측이나 효과적인 하수관망 설계에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Recent identification and characterization of plant homeobox genes suggest that they play important roles in morphogenetic events. OSH1, one of the rice homeobox genes, is thought to be related to organ development since the changes of OSH1 gene expression cause morphological abnormalities of leaves by the ectopic expression and is expressed during early embryogenesis. In this experiment, the expression pattern of OSH1 was analyzedinmutants by in situ hybridization, and OSH1's potential as a molecular marker was explored. Region-specific expression of OSH1 during early embryogenesis shows that OSH1 could be used as a molecular marker for characterizing embryo mutants. Although several organless and shootless mutants showed normal expression of OSM1, some mutants exhibited abnormal expression patterns. In a minute organless cle1-1 embryo whose epidermis resembled morphologically the epithelium of scutellum, OSH1 expression was limited to a small basal region. This expression pattern suggests the gross deletion of the basal part. In a radicleless mutant, odm115, OSH1 expression was detected in a basal region instead of subcentral region of the ventral side. Together with other characteristics (short embryo and normal adventitious roots), odm115 was estimated to be derived from the deletion of basal region. Among five shootless mutants, three showed normal expression of OSH1. In the shl2 embryo, no expression of OSH1 was observed. In the shl1 embryo, however, OSH1 expression was extended to a dorsal side, indicating that SHL2 might be related to dorsoventral patterning. The above results of in situ hybrydization clearly indicate that OSH1 can be utilized as a marker for characterizing gene functions of embryo mutants.
