  • 파이토케미칼은 식물유래의 비 영양 성분으로서 항염증, 항산화, 및 화학적 암 예방 등의 생리활성을 가지고 있는 물질이다. 본 연구에서, 우리는 다섯 가지의 다른 파이토케미칼(resveratrol, genistein, epicatechin gallate, diallyl disulfide, caffeic acid phenethyl ester)이 대장암 세포주의 성장과 유전자 발현에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 세포 생존율 연구결과, 처리한 ECG를 제외한 모든 파이토케미칼에 의해 농도의존적으로 세포생존율이 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한, oligo DNA microarray 실험을 통해 다섯 종류의 파이토케미칼에 의해 공통적으로 증가 되는 유전자 6개와 공통적으로 발현이 감소되는 유전자 7개를 선별하였다. 공통적으로 발현이 증가되는 유전자를 선택하여 RT-PCR 방법을 통해 발현을 증명하였다. 또한, 파이토케미칼에 의한 NAG-1 단백질의 발현 증가도 확인하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 파이토케미칼에 의해 중재되어 지는 화학적 암 예방법의 일반적인 분자 기전을 이해하는데 도움을 줄 것으로 생각된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 식물추출액을 이용하여 요소를 분해한 다음 이로부터 분해된 탄산이온과 수용액 상태의 칼슘이온이 음전하를 띄는 점토를 매개체로 하여 탄산칼슘을 석출시켜 친환경적으로 흙을 고결시키면서 내구성도 향상시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 식물추출액과 요소가 혼합된 제1용액과 칼슘원(염화칼슘)이 용해된 용액에 소량의 점토가 혼합된 제2용액을 깨끗한 낙동강모래에 섞어서 비빈 다음 다짐방법으로 소형 공시체를 제작하였다. 요소와 염화칼슘의 몰농도를 세 종류(1, 5, 7몰)로 달리하였으며, 각 공시체에 점토를 전체중량의 0%, 1%, 3%의 세가지 비율로 혼합하여 공시체를 제작한 다음 실내에서 7일 동안 양생하였다. 양생이 완료된 공시체에 대해 일축압축시험, 내구성시험, SEM, EDX 및 XRD 분석, 그리고 열중량 분석을 실시하여 사질토의 고결 정도와 구조를 분석하였다. 요소와 염화칼슘의 몰농도가 높을수록 점토 함유량이 증가할수록 일축압축강도와 내구성이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. SEM, EDX 및 XRD 분석을 통하여 점토광물 주변에 탄산칼슘(calcite)이 석출되는 것을 확인하였으며, 열중량 분석으로부터 시료 내에 중량대비 탄산칼슘이 1-2% 정도 석출되었다.

  • Paclitaxel has been widely used for treating many solid tumors. Although colonic toxicity is an unusual complication of paclitaxel-based chemotherapy, the reported toxicities include pseudomembranous colitis, neutropenic enterocolitis and on rare occasions ischemic colitis. $Genexol-PM^{(R)}$, which is a recently developed cremophor-free, polymeric micelle-formulated paclitaxel, has shown a more potent antitumor effect because it can increase the usual dose of paclitaxel due to that $Genexol-PM^{(R)}$ does not include the toxic cremophor compound. We report here on a case of a 57-year-old man with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and who developed ischemic colitis after chemotherapy with $Genexol-PM^{(R)}$ and cisplatin. He complained of hematochezia with abdominal pain on the left lower quadrant. Colonoscopy revealed diffuse mucosal hemorrhage and edema from the sigmoid colon to the splenic flexure. After bowel rest, he recovered from his symptoms and the follow-up colonoscopic findings showed that the mucosa was healing. Since then, he was treated with pemetrexed monotherapy instead of a paclitaxel compound and platinum.

  • Background: Chronic pain affects approximately 22% of the world's population. Opioids can be useful in chronic pain management. However, some patients have negative perception of opioids. The purpose of this research was to evaluate patients' perception about opioids and investigate problems associated with prescribing and taking opioids in South Korea. Methods: Patients who visited a pain clinic in 14 university hospitals of South Korea from September through October 2018 were asked to complete anonymous questionnaires about taking opioids. Results: Of the 368 patients that were surveyed (female 53.3%, male 46.7%), 56.8% were prescribed opioids. In the opioid group, 92.8% patients had heard of opioids from their doctor and 72.6% of them had a positive perception about opioids. The side effects associated with opioid use were constipation (35.4%), dizziness (24.6%), nausea and vomiting (17.4%), dysuria (6.2%), and addiction (2.0%). In the no opioid group, the primary sources of information about opioids were doctors (49.2%), mass media (30.8%), and the internet (16.2%). The main reasons why 39.0% patients did not take opioids were fear of addiction (57.7%) and side effects (38.5%). There were 71.5% and 60.9% patients in the opioid and no opioid group, respectively, who wished to take opioids when their numeric rating scale pain score was ≥ 7. Conclusions: Perception of opioids among patients who take them was either neutral or positive. However, 39.0% patients who have not been prescribed opioids did not want an opioid prescription, citing fear of addiction and side effects as the primary reasons.

  • Many benefits of silk protein fibroin (SPF) have been suggested in biomedical applications; and notably, significant SPF effects have been observed for metabolic syndromes that are directly linked to insulin resistance, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Based on our previous findings, we believe that SPF from spiders exhibits outstanding glucose-lowering effects in diabetic BKS.Cg-m+/+Leprdb mice. In order to evaluate the dietary effects of SPF in diabetic animals, we generated several lines of transgenic rice (TR) that expresses SPF, and the feeding of TR-SPF to diabetic animals decreased blood glucose levels, but did not change insulin levels. Western blot analyses of hepatic proteins showed that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) expression and phosphorylation both decreased in TR-SPF-fed groups, compared with controls. This finding suggests that the glucose-lowering effects in this diabetic animal model might be AMPK-independent. In contrast, six-transmembrane protein of prostate 2 (STAMP2) was upregulated after TR-SPF exposure. Together with STAMP2, the Akt protein phosphorylation increased after TR-SPF exposure, which indicates that STAMP2 leads to Akt phosphorylation and thus increases insulin sensitivity in hepatocytes. Importantly, the hepatic steatosis that was seen in the liver of diabetic mice was remarkably alleviated in TR-SPF-fed mice. Hepatocytes that were immunopositive for STAMP2 were overwhelmingly observed in hepatic tissues from TR-SPF-fed mice compared to the control. Taken together, these results suggest that feeding diabetic mice with TR-SPF upregulates STAMP2 expression and increases Akt phosphorylation in hepatic tissues and thus potentially alleviates insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis.

  • 본 연구에서는 완전분해와 전분해 전처리 방법에 따른 중금속 농도 사이에 대한 상관관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 영산강 섬진강 수계 하천 및 호소에서 총 43점의 퇴적물 시료를 채취하여, 두 방법으로 전처리하고 5성분의 금속(Cd, Cr, Ni, Pb, Zn)을 분석하였다. 전체적인 중금속의 평균농도는 Zn>Cr>Pb>Ni>Cd 순으로 나타났으며, 전분해 값은 완전분해 값의 35.0% (Cd), 53.8% (Cr), 66.2% (Ni), 64.4% (Pb), 76.4% (Zn)로 완전분해시 중금속 농도가 높게 나타났다. 호소의 중금속 농도가 하천의 농도보다 높게 나타났다. 완전분해와 전분해 농도 사이의 상관관계식을 구하였으며, 강한 상관관계를 가지는 것을 나타난 Zn 및 Ni의 경우 완전분해 농도가 증가할 경우 왕수에 의한 용출농도도 같이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 나머지 중금속들에서도 두 분해법에 의한 퇴적물의 중금속농도 사이에 보통이상의 선형상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 퇴적물의 불균질성으로 인해 제한적으로 응용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • 본 연구에서는 전력선 근방의 전자파 전자계를 쌍극자 안테나 이론에 의해 도출하였으며 수직 전선배열의 3상전력선 근방의 전자계를 정식화함으로써 전자계 계산을 쉽게 할 수 있도록 하였다. 이 계산식들은 송전선로 및 배전선로의 설계시 전자파 전자계의 검토에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 이와 같이 정식화한 각 전자계 성분요소의 식들을 송전선로 모델에 적용하였으며 매틀랩 프로그램을 작성하여 계산하였다. 이 계산 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 전자계의 x성분 $B_x$$E_x$는 무시할 수 있을 정도의 작은 값을 나타내며 대지내의 반사파에 의한 영향만을 반영한다. 수평거리 변화에 대하여 $E_y$$B_z$의 윤곽이 같으며, $B_y$$E_z$의 윤곽도 같다. 이와 같은 사실은 전자파 전계와 자계의 결합요소가 서로 직각으로서 $x{\rightarrow}E_y{\rightarrow}B_z$와 같은 우수계의 전파방향을 갖고 있음을 의미한다. 합성전계 E는 $E_y$요소가 지배적이며 합성자계 B는 $B_z$요소가 지배적이다.

  • Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using simultaneous integrated boost-intensity modulated radiotherapy (SIB-IMRT) in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) patients. Materials and Methods: Between January 2011 and May 2015, 47 LAPC patients received CRT using SIB-IMRT. Prior to SIB-IMRT, 37 patients (78.7%) received induction chemotherapy (IC-CRT group) and remaining 10 patients (21.3%) did not received induction chemotherapy (CRT group). During SIB-IMRT, all patients received concomitant chemotherapy, with gemcitabine (n = 37) and capecitabine (n = 10). Results: At the time of analysis, 45 patients had died and 2 patients remained alive and the median follow-up time was 14.2 months (range, 3.3 to 51.4 months). For all patients, the median times of local progression-free survival (LPFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were 18.1, 10.3, and 14.2 months, respectively. The median time of LPFS between IC-CRT and CRT groups was similar (18.1 months vs. 18.3 months, p = 0.711). IC-CRT group had a higher trend in PFS (10.9 months vs. 4.1 months, p = 0.054) and had significantly higher OS (15.4 months vs. 9.5 months, p = 0.007) than CRT group. In multivariate analysis, the use of induction chemotherapy and tumor response were significant factors associated with OS (p < 0.05, each). During SIB-IMRT, toxicity of grade ≥3 was observed in 7 patients (14.9%) in all patients. Conclusions: CRT using SIB-IMRT is feasible and promising in LAPC patients.

  • Prunella vulgaris, well-known traditional medicinal plant, is used for the cure of abscess, scrofula, hypertension and urinary diseases. Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause of end-stage renal disease. The pathological characteristics of diabetic nephropathy are glomerular and tubular basement membrane thickening. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Prunella vulgaris, on diabetic glomerular injury in streptozotocin-induced diabetes rats. Diabetes mellitus was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ; 45 mg/kg) and confirmed by random glucose level higher than ${\leq}300mg/dL$. The experimental rats were divided into five groups: control group (Male SD rats), STZ group (Male SD rats injected STZ), Aminoguanidine group (Male SD rats injected STZ + AG 100 mg/kg/day), Low dose group (Male SD rats injected STZ + APV 100 mg/kg/day), High dose group (Male SD rats injected STZ + APV 300 mg/kg/day). AG or APVs were administered once a day for 8 weeks. Body weight and food/water intake were measured every four weeks. At the end of study, the kidneys were collected and cut into pieces for immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis. Our study showed that body weight and water/food intake were no significant differences between untreated STZ-induced diabetic rat and APV treated-STZ rat. However, phosphorylation of receptor-regulated Smads (Smad3) was significantly decreased in APV treated-STZ rat as compared with the diabetic group. In addition, APV was improved nephrin level in kidney tissue. Therefore, we suggest that APV has a protective effect against STZ-induced diabetic glomerular injury.
