Recently, the HFC-CATV network stand in a substructure of superhighway information network. Because of sharing up to 500 of subscribes, the Collision Resolution Algorithm needs in the upstream channel of HFC-CATV network. In order to provide Quality of Service (QoS) to users with real-time data such as voice, video and interactive service, the research of Collision Resolution Algorithm must include an effective priority scheme. In IEEE 802.14, the Collision Resolution Algorithm has high request delay because of static PNA(Priority New Access) slots structure and different priority traffics with the same probability. In order to resolve this problem, this paper proposed dynamic priority collision resolution algorithm with ternary tree algorithm. It has low request delay according to an increase of traffic load because high priority traffic first resolve and new traffic content with different probability. In the result of the simulation, it demonstrated that the proposed algorithm needs lower request delay than that of ternary tree algorithm with static PNA slots structure.

Despite differences in virulence between strains of Toxoplasma gondii, rapid and accurate genotyping methods are lacking. In this study, a method was developed to detect and genotype T. gondii in food and environmental samples using PCR and a novel peptide nucleic acid (PNA) melting array. An alignment of genome sequences for T. gondii type I, II, and III obtained from NCBI was generated, and a single nucleotide polymorphism analysis was performed to identify targets for PCR amplification and a PNA melting array. Prior to the PNA melting array, conventional PCR was used to amplify GRA6 of T. gondii. After amplification, the PNA melting array was performed using two different PNA hybridization probes with fluorescent labels (FAM and HEX) and quenchers. Melting curves for each probe were used to determine genotypes and identify mutations. A 214-bp region of the GRA6 gene of T. gondii was successfully amplified by PCR. For all T. gondii strains (type I, II, and III) used to evaluate specificity, the correct genotypes were determined by the PNA melting array. Non-T. gondii strains, including 14 foodborne pathogens and 3 protozoan parasites, such as Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium parvum, and Entamoeba histolytica, showed no signal, suggesting that the assay has a high specificity. Although this is only a proof-of-concept study, the assay is promising for the fast and reliable genotyping of T. gondii from food and environmental samples.

This study attempted to investigate the developmental alterations of the cerebral cortex. The effects of EGEE on the developmental cerebral cortex in the prenatal, postnatal and adults were examined by lectin histochemical methods. To investigate the change of sugar residues of glycoconjugates, biotinylated lectins(DBA, SBA, PNA, BSL-1, RCA-1, sWGA, UEA-1, Con A and LCA) were detected with by IHC using ABC kit. In the case of injection of EGEE, the reactions to Con A and LCA were shown in binding phase in the cerebral cortex commonly, and the reactions to PNA, RCA-1 and LCA were shown partially, the number of lectins to be shown reaction were decreased, and there were no reactions to DBA, SBA, BSL-1, RCA-1 and UEA-1. The reaction to Con A was similar to control group during developmental phases. The reaction to LCA was increased in the fetal, suckling, and weanning phases compared with control group. But there were no reactions to SBA and sWGA, the reaction to PNA was decreased in the frontal and occipital cortex and no reaction to sWGA in the fetal phase. There were no reactions to sWGA and PNA in the suckling phase and, no reaction to PNA and sWGA. The reaction to Con A was decreased in the frontal, parietal and occipital cortexes and, the reaction to LCA was decreased in the frontal and occipital cortexes in adult phase. As the results, the effects of EGEE, environmental hormone on the each part of cerebral cortex have shown differences. But, It had deep effect on the differentiation and growth in the cerebral cortex pathologically. In particular, the effect was severe in suckling phase. $Galactosyl-({\beta}-1,3)-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine$,${\beta}-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine$ and ${\beta}-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine$ were decreased while ${\alpha}-D-mannose$ and ${\alpha}-D-glucose$ were increased. It affected the sugar metabloism, and it was severe in fetal and suckling phases.

Background: Although the gold standard method for research trials on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations has been direct sequencing, this approach has the limitations of low sensitivity and of being time-consuming. Peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-mediated polymerase chain reaction (PCR) clamping is known to be a more sensitive detection tool. The aim of this study was to compare the detection rate of $EGFR$ mutation and EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) responsiveness according to $EGFR$ mutation status using both methodologies. Methods: Clinical specimens from 112 NSCLC patients were analyzed for $EGFR$ mutations in exons 18, 19, 20, and 21. All clinical data and tumor specimens were obtained from 3 university hospitals in Korea. After genomic DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded tissue specimens, both PNA-mediated PCR clamping and direct-sequencing were performed. The results and clinical response to $EGFR$-TKIs were compared. Results: Sequencing revealed a total of 35 (22.9%) mutations: 8 missense mutations in exon 21 and 26 deletion mutations in exon 19. PNA-mediated PCR clamping showed the presence of genomic alterations in 45 (28.3%) samples, including the 32 identified by sequencing plus 13 additional samples (6 in exon 19 and 7 in exon 21). Conclusion: PNA-mediated PCR clamping is simple and rapid, as well as a more sensitive method for screening of genomic alterations in $EGFR$ gene compared to direct sequencing. This data suggests that PNA-mediated PCR clamping should be implemented as a useful screening tool for detection of $EGFR$ mutations in clinical setting.

The morphology of the apical pore complex, the first apical plate and the posterior sulcal plates in a new isolate of Alexandrium tamarense (Lebour) Balech from the Bay of Chinhae was compared with other that of toxic strains of A. tamarense previously isolated from Korean waters. Although this isolate was morphologically identical to these toxic strains, high performance liquid chromatography and mouse bioassay showed no evidence of toxin production. The nontoxic A. tamarense strain showed a strong positive binding activity with PNA lectin, indicating a high density of lactose and galactose residues on the cell surface, and in SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis a unique protein of about 21-kDa molecular sizes was observed. These findings demonstrate that the use of PNA and immunobioassay could be used to discriminate between toxic and nontoxic strains of A. tamarense.

생쥐의 배우자간 인식과 수란관과 난자의 상호작용을 연구하기 위하여 수정 전후의 난자와 배아에 형광으로 표지된 5가지 렉틴(UEA-1. LCA, PNA RCA-1, GSL-1)을 처리하여 투명대, 위낭강 원형질 막에서 렉틴의 결합양상을 관찰하였다. 미수정난자 및 수정란의 투명 대에는 UIA-1을 제외한 4가지 렉틴이 결합하였다. PNA RCA-1, GSL-1은 투명대의 의총보다 내층에 강하게 결합되었고 UEA-1과 LCA는 투명대의 전층에서 미약하지만 고르게 결합하였다 배란된 난자의 위난강은 LCA와 PNA에 의해 결합되었으며 UEA-1은 수정 이후부터 GSL-1은 2-세포기 이후부터 위난강에 결합하였다. 난구세포를 제거하고 체외성숙을 일으킨 난자의 위난강에는 5가지 렉틴 모두 결합하지 않았다. 난자와 배아의 원형질막은 PNA. RCA-1, GSL-1에 의해 결합되었고, LCA 및 UEA기은 수정 이후부터 원형질막에 결합하였다. 이상의 결과에서 glucosamine, N-acetylgalactoamine 관기를 함유한 물질이 난구세포에서 생성되어 위난강에 축적되며 배란 후부터 난자의 위난강내 탄수화물관기는 수란관내액의 영향을 받는 것으로 사료된다. 난자 투명대의 탄수화물관기는 내층에 밀집되어 분포하는데 이는 정자의 투명대 관입 조절과 관련된 것으로 사료된다. 수정 후 난자의 원형질막 표면에 fucose와 mannose 등의 탄수화물 잔기가 새로이 노출되며 초기배아 발생동안 위난강에 존재하는 구조물의 렉틴 결합 특성이 유지되었다.

렉틴(Lectins)은 세포막의 당단백질의 과당류 말단기에 특이적으로 결합하는 비면역성의 당단백질 혹은 단백질을 말하는데 정상세포와 변형된 세포에서 렉틴반응의 차이가 남으로써 요즘에는 렉틴을 병리학적 진단에 이용 가능하게 되었다. “Loss of contact inhibition”은 세포 악성화의 중요한 특징으로 세포의 악성화는 세포막의 구조의 변화와 관계가 있을 것으로 알려져 왔으며 1989년 후두암에서 PNA의 반응이 양성 반응을 나타낸다고 보고되어 저자들은 7가지의 렉틴을 이용하여 후두암전구증의 하나인 후두각화증에서 이형성(Atypia)의 존재유무에 따른 렉틴 반응의 변화를 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 이형성이 없는 단순 후두각화증에서는 Con A와 WGA만이 기저세포에 반응이 있었으며, 후두각화증의 가장 중요한 부위인 극세포층에서는 WGA, RCA-I, PNA, SBA, UEA-I, DBA가 세포질에는 반응이 없이 세포간교에만 염색이 되는것을 관찰할 수 있었고 Con A는 반대로 극세포층의 세포질에 반응을 하였으나 세포간교에는 반응이 없었다. 2. 이형성을 동반한 후두각화증에서, 기저세포에서는 반응의 차이가 없었고 극세포층에서는 UEA-I, RCA-I. WGA, PNA, SBA는 세포간교에서 반응이 나타나지 않았고 세포질에서 양성 반응을 관찰 할 수 있었으며 DBA, Con-A에서는 반응의 차이를 관찰 할 수 없었다. 따라서 후두각화증의 극세포층 세포막에서 UEA-I, RCA-I, WGA, PNA, SBA 반응의 소실은 후두암으로의 진행과 밀접한 관계가 있는 이형성의 존재를 암시한다하겠다.

Optimum conditions of the hydrogenation of PNA to pure PPD were determined in a three-phase slurry reactor with suspended Pd/C catalyst particles. Minimization of mass transfer resistances at the interfaces of both gas-liquid and liquid-catalyst particles and control of overall reaction rate on catalyst surface leaded to decrease the hydrogen starvation on reaction active sites and to reduce the side reactions during hydrogenation. The optimum temperature, pressure, and catalysst concentration were confirmed to be in the range of $60^{\circ}C$, 60~70 psig, and 1~2 g-cat/L, respectively. Reaction rate was zero order with respect to the concentration of PNA and 1st order with respect to the pressure of hydrogen(P). Overall rate expression of the reaction was $R_A=6.44{\times}10^6{\cdot}H{\cdot}P{\cdot}m{\cdot}$exp(-4659/T) where H is constant, m is concentration of catalyst, and T is temperature.
