2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), a prototype of halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, is a persistent environmental contaminant and one of the most powerful tumor promoters. The molecular mechanism underlying induction of tumor promotion by TCDD has not been elucidated.(omitted)

The ground state of the oxygen molecule is calculated by various methods of coupled cluster approaches and many body perturbation theory using a double zeta plus polarization basis set and the UHF reference state. All the methods employed are capable of describing the oxygen molecule near the equilibrium bond length and the separated atom, but do not correctly depict the breaking of the multiple bond. For this basis set, including more correlations does not necessarily improve the agreement with experiment for molecular properties such as bond lengths and dissociation energies.

We reported that the evidence of oxygen doping to copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc) by $O_2$-plasma treatment to Au electrode of inverted top emitting organic light emitting diodes (ITOLEDs). The operation voltage of OLEDs at 150 mA/$cm^2$ decreased from 16.1 to 10.3 V as oxygen atoms indiffued to CuPc layer using $O_2$-plasma. Synchrotron radiation photoelectron spectroscopy results showed that a new bond of Cu-O appeared and the energy difference between the highest occupied molecular orbital and $E_F$ is lowered by 0.20 eV after plasma treatment. Thus the hole injection barrier was lowered, reducing the turn-on voltage and increasing the quantum efficiency of OLEDs.

Hypoxia has been shown in many tumors because of a reduced oxygen condition. A useful approach to detect hypoxia is to use molecular imaging. Positron emission tomography (PET), one of the biomedical molecular imaging tools, is the most common non-invasive technique for providing information about physiological and biological events such as diseases. In order to use the PET technique for healthcare, promising molecular probes such as PET tracers required. [$^{18}F$]Fluoromisonidazole ([$^{18}F$]FMISO) is the most widely used in PET tracers for hypoxia. In this review, major developments of the synthetic method of [$^{18}F$]FMISO are discussed.

Background and Aim: Although the functional consequences of MDR-1 polymorphisms have been the subject of numerous studies, to the best to our knowledge, associations with clinical side effects of anticancer drugs have yet to be assessed. Our aim was to clarify any role of the C3435T polymorphism of the MDR1 gene in oral mucositis and its relation with elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Materials and Methods: The distribution of the MDR-1 C3435T polymorphism in 47 patients with ALL was determined by RFLP and compared with that of 68 healthy controls. Results: There were no association in distribution of genotypes of MDR-1 C3435T polymorphism and the risk of ALL. Oral mucositis were detected in 78.7% (n=37) of the patients and significantly related to the MDR-1 CT genotype (p=0.042), as confirmed by logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: Our preliminary data suggest that children carrying the CT genotype are more prone to develop oral mucositis, which might mean that the heterozygous genotype leads to accumulation of more reactive oxygen species. Since a limited number of patients was investigated, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

ZnO thin film was grown on a sapphire single crystal substrate by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. In addition to near band edge (NBE) emissions, both blue and green luminescences are also observed together. The PL intensity of the blue luminescence (BL) range from 2.7 to 2.9 eV increased as the amount of activated oxygen increased, but green luminescence (GL) was weakly observed at about 2.4 eV without much change in intensity. This result is quite unlike previous studies in which BL and GL were regarded as the transition between shallow donor levels such as oxygen vacancy and interstitial zinc. Based on the transition level and formation energy of the ZnO intrinsic defects predicted through the first principle calculation, which employs density functional approximation (DFA) revised by local density approximation (LDA) and the LDA+U approach, the green and blue luminescence are nearly coincident with the transition from the conduction band to zinc vacancies of $V^{2-}_{Zn}$ and $V^-_{Zn}$, respectively.

ASED-MO(Atom Superposition and Electoron Delocalization-Molecular Orbtal)이론을 이용하여 Pt(lll)과 ${\upsilon}-Al_2O_3$(III) 표면 모델에 대한 계면간 결합 세기에 관해 연구하였다. $Al^{3+}$의 환원 정도가는 알루미나 뭉치(cluster)에 대한 산소와 알루미늄의 비에 따라 달라진다. $Al^{3+}$의 환원 정도가 크면 클수록 Pt 원소들에 대해 강한 결합 에너지를 가진다. 산소로 덮인 ${\gamma}-Al_{20}_3$(III) 표면과 Pt 계면간 결합이 매우 약하지만 백금의 산화 조건에서의 결합은 매우 강하다. 백금 표면에서 부분적으로 빈 O-2p 띠(band)와 $Al^{3+}$ dangling surface orbital로 전하가 이동하는 전하이동(charge transfer) 메카니즘에 의해 백금과 알루미나 계면간 결합은 가능하다.

To elucidate the effect of oxygen radicals on the molecular properties of proteins, the secondary and tertiary structure and molecular weight size of BSA and ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin were examined after irradiation of proteins at various doses. Gamma-irradiation of protein solutions caused the disruption of the ordered structure of protein molecules as well as degradation, cross-linking, and aggregation of the polypeptide chains. As a model system, BSA and ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin were used as a typical ${\alpha}$-helical and a ${\beta}$-sheet structure protein, respectively. A circular dichroism study showed that the increase of radiation decreased the ordered structure of proteins with a concurrent increase of aperiodic structure content. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that irradiation quenched the emission intensity excited at 280 nm. SDS-PAGE and a gel permeation chromatography study indicated that radiation caused initial fragmentation of proteins resulting in a subsequent aggregation due to cross-linking of protein molecules.

Superoxide dismutases are metalloenzymes catalyzing the dimutation of superoxide anion radical to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen. Examples of enzymes containing Cu, Mn and Fe as the redox-active metal have been characterized. Recently, an SOD containing one Ni atom per subunit was reported.(omitted)
