Background: Thromboxane A2 and endothelin-1 are the potent vasoconstrictors affecting pulmonary pathophysiology in response to whole body inflammatin following CPB. Aprotinin, as an antiiflammatory agent, may decrease the release of such vasoactive substance from pulmonary tissues, preventing pulmonary hypertension after cardiopulmonary bypass. Material and Method: Ten mongrel dogs(Bwt. ac. 20kg) were subjected to cardioupulmonary bypass for 2 hours and postbypass pulmonary vascular resistance(0, 1, 2, 3 hours) were compared with prebypass level. The dogs were divided into 2 groups; control group(n-5) and aprotinin group(n=5). In the aprotinin group, aprotinin was administered as follows; 50,000 KIU/kg mixed in pump priming solution, 50,000 KIU/kg prebypass intravenous infusion over 30 minutes, 10,000 KIU/kg/hour postbypass continuous infusion. Prebypass and postbypass 0, 1, 2, 3 hour pulmonary vascular resistance were measured. At prebypass and postbypass 0, 90, 180 minutes, blood samples were obtained from pulmonary arterial and left atrial catherers for the assay of plasma thromboxane B2 a stable metabolite of thromboxane A2, and endothelin-1 concentrations. Result: The ratios of pustbypass over prebypass pulmonary vascular at postbypass 0, 1, 2, 3 hours were 1.28$\pm$0.20, 1.82$\pm$0.23, 1.90$\pm$0.19, 2.14$\pm$0.18 in control group, 1.58$\pm$0.18, 1.73$\pm$0.01, 1.66$\pm$0.10, 1.50$\pm$0.08 in aprotinin group ; the ratios gradually increased in control group while decreased or fluctuated after postbypass 1 hour in aprotinin group. There was statistically significant difference between control group and aprotinin group at postbypass 3 hours(P=0.014). Pulmonary arterial plasma concentration of thromboxane B2(pg/ml) at prebypass, postbypass 0, 90, 180 minutes were 346.4$\pm$61.9, 529.3$\pm$197.6, 578.3$\pm$255.8, 493.3$\pm$171.3 in control group, 323.8$\pm$118.0, 422.6$\pm$75.6, 412.3$\pm$59.9, 394.5$\pm$154.0 in aprotinin group. Left atrial concentrations were 339.3$\pm$89.2, 667.0$\pm$65.7, 731.2$\pm$192.7, 607.5$\pm$165.9 in control group, 330.0$\pm$111.2, 468.4$\pm$190.3, 425.4$\pm$193.6, 4.7.3$\pm$142.8 in aprotinin group. These results showed decrement of pulmonary thromboxane A2 generation in aprotinin group. Pulmonary arterial concentrations of endothelin-1(fmol/ml) at the same time sequence were 7.84$\pm$0.31, 13.2$\pm$0.51, 15.0$\pm$1.22, 16.3$\pm$1.73 in control group, 7.76$\pm$0.12, 15.3$\pm$0.71, 22.6$\pm$6.62, 14.9$\pm$1.11 in aprotinin group. Left atrial concentrations were 7.61$\pm$17.2, 57.1$\pm$28.4, 18.9$\pm$18.2, 31.5$\pm$20.5 in control group, 5.61$\pm$7.61, 37.0$\pm$26.2, 28.6$\pm$21.7, 37.8$\pm$30.6 in aprotinin group. These results showed that aprotinin had no effect on plasma endothelin-1 concentration after cardiopulmonary bypass. Conclusion: Administration of aprotinin during cardiopulmonary bypass could attenuate the increase in pulmonary vascular resistance after bypass. Inhibition of pulmonary thromboxane A2 generation was thought to be one of the mechanism of this effect. Aprotinin had no effect on postbypass endothelin-1 concentration.

The present work was designed to understand the mechanism of superovuiation and the cause of early embryo loss and Implantation failure in the superovulating immature female rats which were elaborated by a pituitary gland transplantation. A pituitary gland obtained from the orchidectomized rats was transplanted under the right kidney capsule of 28 day old female rats (PGT group) on the starting day of experiment which was designated as Day 2. The grafted pituitary glands were removed at 6h (RPGT 6h group), 12h (RPGT 12hgroup) and 24h (RPGT 24h group) after the transplantation. Control rats were treated with 41U PMSG on Day 2 (PMSG group). The estrous cycle and the levels of plasma progesterone and estradiol-17$\beta$ were observed on Day 0, Day 5, respectively. The implantation sites, the weights of ovary and uterus, and the number of corpora lutea were examined in all group on Day 8. The resuft obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The percentages of the number of the rats in proestrus and estrus were 93.0%, 82.6%, 0%, 90.7% and 89.5% in PMSG, PGT, RPGT6h, RPGT12h and RPGT24h group, respectively. The synchronization of estrus cycle was dchieved in all groups. 2. The mating rates of each group were 80.2, 75.0, 0, 56.4, 57.8% in PMSG, PGT, RPGT6h, RPGT12h, RPGT24h group, respectively. 3. The numbers of copora lutea on Day 8 were 47.1 i 4.9, 18.1 $\pm$0.5, 14.1 i 0.3 and 8.9 $\pm$ 0.3 in PGT, RPGT24h, RPGTl2h and PMSG group, respectively. There were signIficantly difference between all groups (P<0.05). 4. The numbers of implantation sites (18.1 +- 4.0) in PGT group on Day 8 were higher than those of PMSG (8.5 $\pm$ 2.5), RPGT 12h (9.8 i 0.2) and RPGT 24h group (10.8 i 0.2) (P<0.05). 5. The ovarlan weights in PGT (95.2 $\pm$ 14.3mgIlOOg BW), RPGT 12h (51.7 $\pm$ 0.6mgIlOOg BW), and RPGT24h (57.9 $\pm$ 0.9mg/l00g 8W) groups were significantly higher than those of PMSG group (30.4 $\pm$7.4mg/l00g BW) (P<0.05). 6. The uterine weights in PMSG (672.4 $\pm$ 4.7mg/l00g 8W), and PGT (660.7 $\pm$7.8mg/l00g BW) groupswere greater than those of RPGT 12h (403.0 $\pm$ 1.lmg/lOOg BW) and RPGT 24h (490.1 $\pm$ 0.9mg/l00g BW) group (P<0.05). 7. The plasma progesterone levels in PGT groups (15 lng/ml) on Day 5 were higher than those of PMSG (83ng/ml), RPGT 12h (S7ng/ml), RPGT24h (8lng/ml) group (P<0.05). 8. The plasma estradiol-17$\beta$ levels in PMSG group (lBSpg/ml) on Day S were higher than those of RPGT 24h (l3pg/ml) group (P<0.05). But estradiol-17$\beta$ levels in PGT and RPGT 12h group were too low to discuss.

연구배경 : Angiotensin II가 폐포상피세포의 세포사멸을 유도하고 폐섬유모세포에서 TGF-${\beta}$등의 발현을 증가시켜 폐섬유화증을 촉진시킬 수 있다고 알려져 있어 angiotensin II receptor의 차단이 폐섬유화증을 감소시키는 효과가 있을 것으로 예상하고 특발성 폐섬유화증 환자에게 angiotensin II receptor antagonist(AGIIRA)를 투여하여 치료효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 저자들은 가천의대 길병원에서 특발성 폐섬유화증으로 진단된 13명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 이들 중 8명 의 환자에게는 angiotensin II type 1 receptor antaginist인 losartan(cozaar$^{(R)}$) 을 투여하였고 나머지 5명의 환자에게는 losartan을 투여 하지 않았으며, 치료 직전과 치료 l년 후에 모든 환자에게 폐기능 검사와 호흡곤란 지수의 정도의 변화를 측정하여 그 결과를 비교하였다. 결 과 : AGIIRA 복용 군에서는 폐기능이 전체적으로 약간의 호전을 보였으며, 미 복용 군에서는 DLco%가 5%로 증가하였으나 TLC가 14%로 감소하는 등 전반적으로 페기능이 감소하는 소견을 보였다. 폐기능 변화가 두 군 모두 통계적으로 유의성이 없었고 두 군간의 변화율의 변화에서도 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 호흡곤란 지수는 AGIIRA 복용한 군에서만 통계적으로 유의하게 더 호전을 보였다. 결 론 : 특발성 폐섬유화증의 치료에 AGIIRA가 일부 환자들에게 임상적 안정화에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 차후 더 많은 환자를 대상으로 오랜 기간의 연구와 함께 폐섬유화에 있어서 anglotensin II와 그 receptor에 대한 기전과 역할에 대하여 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives: To compare the efficacy of GnRH antagonist multiple dose protocol (MDP) with that of GnRH agonist long protocol (LP) in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for in vitro fertilization in patients with high basal FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) level or old age, a retrospective analysis was done. Methods: Two hundred ninety four infertile women (328 cycles) who were older than 41 years of age or had elevated basal FSH level (> 8.5 mIU/mL) were enrolled in this study. The patients had undergone IVF-ET after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation using GnRH antagonist multiple dose protocol (n=108, 118 cycles) or GnRH agonist long protocol (n=186, 210 cycles). The main outcome measurements were cycle cancellation rate, consumption of gonadotropins, the number of follicles recruited and total oocytes retrieved. The number of fertilized oocytes and transferred embryos, the clinical pregnancy rates, and the implantation rates were also reviewed. And enrolled patients were divided into three groups according to their age and basal FSH levels; Group A - those who were older than 41 years of age, Group B - those with elevated basal FSH level (> 8.5 mIU/mL) and Group C - those who were older than 41 years of age and with elevated basal FSH level (> 8.5 mIU/mL). Poor responders were classified as patients who had less than 4 retrieved oocytes, or those with $E_2$ level <500 pg/mL on the day of hCG injection or those who required more than 45 ampules of exogenous gonadotropin for stimulation. Results: The cancellation rate was lower in the GnRH antagonist group than in GnRH agonist group, but not statistically significant (6.8% vs. 9.5%, p=NS). The amount of used gonadotropins was significantly lower in GnRH antagonist group than in agonist group ($34.8{\pm}11.3$ ampules vs. $44.1{\pm}13.4$ ampules, p<0.001). The number of follicles > 14 mm in diameter was significantly higher in agonist group than in antagonist group ($6.7{\pm}4.6$ vs. $5.0{\pm}3.4$, p<0.01). But, there were no significant differences in clinical pregnancy rate (24.5% in antagonist group vs. 27.4% in agonist group, p=NS) and implantation rate (11.4% in antagonist group vs. 12.0% in agonist group, p=NS) between two groups. Mean number of retrieved oocytes was significantly higher in GnRH agonist LP group than in GnRH antagonist MDP group ($5.4{\pm}3.5$ vs. $6.6{\pm}5.0$, p<0.0001). But, the number of mature and fertilized oocytes, and the number of good quality (grade I and II) and transferred embryos were not different between two groups. In each group A, B, and C, the rate of poor response did not differ according to stimulation protocols. Conclusions: In conclusion, for infertile women expected poor ovarian response such as who are old age or has elevated basal FSH level, a protocol including a controlled ovarian hyperstimulation using GnRH antagonist appears at least as effective as that using a GnRH agonist, and may offer the advantage of reducing gonadotropin consumption and treatment period. However, much work remains to be done in optimizing the GnRH antagonist protocols and individualizing these to different cycle characteristics.

목 적 : 본 연구에서는 철결핍성 빈혈의 주된 호발 연령인 영유아를 대상으로 HP 감염 유무와 철결핍성 빈혈과의 상관관계를 연구하고자 하였다. 이전의 연구에서는 페리틴을 주 지표로 철결핍성 빈혈과 HP 감염과의 상관관계를 연구하였다. 철결핍성 빈혈 영유아의 대부분은 급성 상기도 감염 및 요로감염 등으로 내원하므로 급성 감염 시에 영향을 받는 페리틴 외에 철 대사의 이용이나 저장에 관련된 다른 인자들을 동시에 비교해보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2000년부터 2006년까지 경상대학교병원에 내원한 6-24개월 영유아 135명을 대상으로 하였다. 혈청 HP CagA 항원(120kD)에 대한 western blot 을 시행하여 감염 유무를 분류하고 (Fig.1) 이들의 혈색소(g/dL), 혈청 페리틴(ug/L), sTfR, (mg/L), Interleuken (IL)-6 (pg/mL), prohepcidin (ng/mL)과 C-reactive protein (CRP) (mg/L)(이하 6인자)를 측정하였다. 또한 이들을 혈색소와 페리틴 수치에 따라 철결핍성빈혈군(IDA), 염증성빈혈군(AI), 미분류빈혈군(UCA) 그리고 정상군(Nor)으로 분류하였다. 통계량 분석은 Mann Whitney U test를 사용하였고 SPSS 14.0 버전을 사용하여 P값이 0.05미만인 경우에 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 평가하였다. 결 과 : IDA, AI, UCA 그리고 Nor 군에서 HP 감염률 비교는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. IDA (N=20)에서 HP 감염이 있는 환아는 7명, 감염이 없는 환아는 13명이었다. 이들 두 그룹의 혈색소 평균은 각각 7.1과 8.2 g/dL로 HP 감염이 있는 환자에서 유의하게 낮았으며 페리틴은 각각 3.2, 6.8 ug/L로 HP감염이 있는 그룹에서 유의하게 낮았다. 또한 IDA외에 다른 군에서는 HP 감염 유무에 따라 6가지 인자를 각각 비교하였으나 유의한 차이는 없었다. 또한 전체 대상 환아에서 HP 감염 유무에 따라 6인자를 각각 비교하였으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결 론 : 철결핍성 빈혈이 있는 영유아(6-24개월)의 HP 감염 유병률은 대조군들과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 본 연구에서는 HP 감염이 있는 철결핍성 빈혈 군에서 sTfR 농도가 유의한 차이를 보인 청소년기 환아 에서의 연구와는 달리 sTfR은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않고 오히려 혈청 페리틴 농도와 혈색소가 의미 있게 낮게 측정되었다. 본 연구에서는 대상 환자인 철결핍성 빈혈군 환자수가 적고 환자들의 식이 등이 고려되지 않았으므로 더 많은 환자를 대상으로 연구가 시행되어야 하겠다.

Although considerable research has been done on the blood picture of the horse, hot-blooded and cold-blooded, little work has been made of the blood picture of the army pack horse, Jeju horse. The object of the present investigation was to make good this deficiency, and to suggest standard for the blood picture of army pack horses kept under the regular military training and the ideal feeding in the heart of a mountain. Blood samples were drawn from the jugular vein through a 15-gauge bleeding needle from 41 males and 28 females, aging 3 to 9 years old. It was taken between seven and nine o'clock in the morning. Animals were handled as quietly as possible to avoid any excitation. No restraint other than a halter was used. Enumeration of erythrocyte, total and differential leukocyte count, determination of hemoglobin in blood, and the value of packed cell volume were male in the usual manner, and erythrocytic constant was calculated by the method of Wintrobe. Erythrocyte count was $7.83{\pm}0.20(4.95{\sim}11.05){\times}10^6/mm^3$(SE). This value was much lower than hot-horses, but slightly higer than the values of cold-horse reported from foreign country. Concentration of hemoglobin in blood was $13.0{\pm}0.33(9.5{\sim}17.8)g/100ml$. This value was much higher than that of cold-horses observed by the other authors, approaching to the values of hot-horses. Packed cell volume was $32.1{\pm}0.92(22{\sim}42)ml/100ml$. This vague was a little higher than that of the other cold-horses. Mean corpuscular volume was $41.5{\pm}1.20(26.6{\sim}59.3){\mu}m^3$. This value matched so well with the other results recorded by various investigators. Mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration were $16.9{\pm}0.43(12.3{\sim}25)$ pg and $41.0{\pm}0.45(29.1{\sim}51.1)g/100ml$, respectively. These values were significantly higher than the values found by the other investigations. Total leukocyte enumeration was $10.5{\pm}0.41(5.6{\sim}17.9){\times}10^3/mm^3$, being considered as normal. And differential leukocyte count of neutrophil was $44.5{\pm}2.23(15{\sim}76)%$, $5,527{\pm}234(2,231{\sim}9,144)/mm^3$, of lymphocyte $50.5{\pm}1.19(19{\sim}77)%$, $4,307{\pm}125(1,456{\sim}11,098)/mm^3$, of monocytel (0~4)%, $105(0{\sim}352)/mm^3$, of eosiophil 3.2(0~14)%, $340(0{\sim}1,232)/mm^3$ and of basophil 0.25(0~3)%, $23(0{\sim}236)/mm^3$. The percentage of the differential count obtained from the present work showed a good agreement with the results of various authors. Of the horses examined monocyte was found from 42 horses, eosinophil from 62 horses and basophil from 10 horses. No significant differences recognized between male and female horses, and the effect of age was not observed between three to nine years old. Judging from the blood picture of the present investigation, it could be stated that the army pack horses on training were kept better than the average farming conditions.

고추장아찌의 전처리온도를 달리하여 품질 특성을 비교하여 최적 가공 조건을 설정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 고추를 비열처리와 40, 50, 80$^{\circ}C$의 온수에서 각각 10분간 열처리한 후 염장한 고추장아찌의 염도변화는 숙성기간이 연장될수록 염도가 서서히 증가하여 저장 50일에 12.80$\∼$14.77$\%$로 초기 첨가된 소금의 농도와 가까운 염농도에 도달하였다. 고추장아찌의 저장기간별 Vit. C의 함량은 저장 6일까지는 전처리를 달리한 모든 군에서 Vit. C 함량이 증가하였으나 7일 이후부터는 급격히 감소하였다. 또한 저장 초기의 클로로필 함량이 30.96$\∼$31.13 mg$ \% $이던 것이 점차 0.76$\∼$2.34mg$\%$로 감소되었다. 고추장아찌의 껍질 표면의 색도 중 황색도의 값은 염장초기에 전처리 온도가 높아짐에 따라 증가하였고, 녹색도/적색도의 변화는 비열처리군이 저장 20일, 40$^{\circ}C$ 처리군은 저장 30일까지 각각 고추 표면의 색도가 녹색인 -값을 보였으며 60, 80$^{\circ}C$처리군은 저장 60일까지 -값을 나타내어 전처리 온도에 따라 고추장아찌의 녹색도 변화에 유의적인 차이가 나타났다 또한 염장 숙성 중 경도변화는 염장 10일까지 전처리 온도에 따라 초기 경도의 차이를 크게 보이지 않았으나 염장 60일경에는 60$^{\circ}C$>40$^{\circ}C$>비열>80$^{\circ}C$처리군의 순으로 높은 경도를 보였다. 열처리 직후 PE효소활성은 상승하였고 염장 60일 에는 60$ ^{\circ}C $>40$ ^{\circ}C $>80$^{\circ}C$>비열처리군의 순이었으며 PG의 활성은 비열처리군에 비하여 전처리군이 5.12$\∼$5.36 unit/g의 낮은 활성도를 보여주었다. 유기농법에 의해 재배된 고추의 가공저장품으로써의 상품화 일환으로 장아찌를 담근 경우, 염장중의 조직연화방지와 색도의 유지를 지속시켜 고품질 제품의 생산을 위해서는 적정 전처리가 필요하였고, 채소류의 저장가공품 개발 시 염농도, 숙성 기간 등 다양한 가공방법을 확립시켜 전통 채소류의 저장 가공품의 계승과 다양한 형태로써의 개발이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Purpose: Lingual nerve (LN) damage may be caused by either tumor resection or injury such as wisdom tooth extraction, Although autologous nerve graft is sometimes used to repair the damaged nerve, it has the disadvantage of necessity of another operation for nerve harvesting. Moreover, the results of nerve grafting is not satisfactory. The nerve growth factor (NGF) is well-known to play a critical role in peripheral nerve regeneration and its local delivery to the injured nerve has been continuously tried to enhance nerve regeneration. However, its application has limitations like repeated administration due to short half life of 30 minutes and an in vivo delivery model must allow for direct and local delivery. The aim of this study was to construct a well-functioning $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus for the ultimate development of improved method to promote peripheral nerve regeneration with enhanced and extended secretion of hNGF from the injured nerve by injecting $rhNGF-{\beta}$ gene directly into crush-injured LN in rat model. Materials and Methods: $hNGF-{\beta}$ gene was prepared from fetal brain cDNA library and cloned into E1/E3 deleted adenoviral vector which contains green fluorescence protein (GFP) gene as a reporter. After large scale production and purification of $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus, transfection efficiency and its expression at various cells (primary cultured Schwann cells, HEK293 cells, Schwann cell lines, NIH3T3 and CRH cells) were evaluated by fluorescent microscopy, RT-PCR, ELISA, immunocytochemistry. Furthermore, the function of rhNGF-beta, which was secreted from various cells infected with $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus, was evaluated using neuritogenesis of PC-12 cells. For in vivo evaluation of efficacy of $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus, the LNs of 8-week old rats were exposed and crush-injured with a small hemostat for 10 seconds. After the injury, $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus($2{\mu}l,\;1.5{\times}10^{11}pfu$) or saline was administered into the crushed site in the experimental (n=24) and the control group (n=24), respectively. Sham operation of another group of rats (n=9) was performed without administration of either saline or adenovirus. The taste recovery and the change of fungiform papilla were studied at 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks. Each of the 6 animals was tested with different solutions (0.1M NaCl, 0.1M sucrose, 0.01M QHCl, or 0.01M HCl) by two-bottle test paradigm and the number of papilla was counted using SEM picture of tongue dorsum. LN was explored at the same interval as taste study and evaluated electro-physiologically (peak voltage and nerve conduction velocity) and histomorphometrically (axon count, myelin thickness). Results: The recombinant adenovirus vector carrying $rhNGF-{\beta}$ was constructed and confirmed by restriction endonuclease analysis and DNA sequence analysis. GFP expression was observed in 90% of $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus infected cells compared with uninfected cells. Total mRNA isolated from $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus infected cells showed strong RT-PCR band, however uninfected or LacZ recombinant adenovirus infected cells did not. NGF quantification by ELISA showed a maximal release of $18865.4{\pm}310.9pg/ml$ NGF at the 4th day and stably continued till 14 days by $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus infected Schwann cells. PC-12 cells exposed to media with $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus infected Schwann cell revealed at the same level of neurite-extension as the commercial NGF did. $rhNGF-{\beta}$ adenovirus injected experimental groups in comparison to the control group exhibited different taste preference ratio. Salty, sweet and sour taste preference ratio were significantly different after 2 weeks from the beginning of the experiment, which were similar to the sham group, but not to the control group.
