  • 최근 한국 의학의 발전은 전체 한국의 선진화를 선도하다고 보기에는 힘드리만 최소한 국제무대에의 진출은 괄목할만한 발전을 보이고 있다. 최근에 들어 국내 방사선영상과련 학회의 발전은 날로 비약적인 추세를 보이고 있다. 일례로 대한방사선의학회는 본 저자가 전공의 하던 1980년도 초기만 해도 호텔의 큰 홀 한 개만 빌려서 하루만 해도 넉넉하게 진행되었다. 그러나 최근의 학회사정은 대형호텔 1개층 통째로 빌리고 3일간 진행해도 여유가 없을 정도이며 더욱이 추계학회는 지방에서 유치할만한 공간이 부족하여 이제는 없어져야할 지경에 이러렀다. 그뿐 아니라 대한 자기공명의과학회를 포함한 각종 학회가 이제 그 규모를 더해가고 있어. 대한민국에 있어서 진단 방사선영역의 의학은 급속히 발전하여 RSNA, ISMRM등에서도 세계 발표순위가 4-5위권을 다투게 되었다. 이러한 발전은 양적인 발전이 우세하여 주로 임상연구에 기반을 두고 있는데 이 자체로는 장기적인 발전에 한계점이 있으므로 앞으로는 기초과학연구에 기초한 질적 발전을 같이 추구하여야만 균형있는 성장을 기대할 수 있겠다. 이러한 기존의 구성에 최근 급격한 변화를 주도하는 학문이 MRI부분이 되며 이 분야를 연구하는 PhD 들의 역할이 크게 대두되고 있다. 현재 국내에도 초기 단계이지만 MRI를 생산하고 있으며 PhD들의 활동이 성장단계에 접어들었다고 할수 있다. 과거 우리의 NRI역사에서는 금성사 MR기계처럼 육성되기 전에 시들며 노력하던 기술진이 흩어져야 했던 어두운 기억이 있다. 이러한 시점에서 우리의 힘들었던 과거를 돌이켜보며 또 하나의 기초부분이 육성되 수 있도록 서로가 격려하며 협조하여야 될 것으로 생각되어 다음과 같이 요약을 하였다. 소기관으로는 세포 막, 미토콘드리아 (mitochondria), endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi 체, lysosome, peroxisome 그리고 세포질등이 있으며, 이들중에서 lysosomes, peroxisomes, 그리고 미토콘드리아가 특정한 유전성 백질질환에 중요한 역할을 하는 것이 밝혀졌다. 이러한 질환들은 최소한 각 소기관에 의한 질환군으로 분류될 수 있다.SXR이 ER의 transactivation 효과를 약간 촉진한 반면 MDA-MB-231세포는 SXR을 제외한 CAR와 PPAR${\gamma}$에 의해 ER의 transactivation 효과가 약간 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 유방암세포에서는 CAR, SXR, PPAR${\gamma}$과 같은 xenobiotic nuclear receptor에 의한 ER transactivation 효과가 간암세포와는 다르게 나타나며, 유방암의 종류에 따라서 endogenous CAR, SXR, PPAR${\gamma}$수용체가 다르게 발현됨으로써 이들에 대한 반응이 서로 상이한 특징을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 estrogen receptor에 의해 매개되는 estrogn의 전사활성조절기전이 표적세포에 따라 다른 경로를 포함 할 수 있음을 시사한다.서 흡착 능력이 우수하게 나타났으며, 황화수소는 펄라이트, 왕겨, 소나무수피에서 상대적으로 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 혼합충전재는 암모니아의 경우 코코넛과 펄라이트의 비율이 7:3인 혼합 재료 3번과 소나무수피와 펄라이트의 비율이 7:3인 혼합 재료 6번에서 다른 혼합 재료에 비하여 우수한 것으

  • Escherichia coli tryptophan synthase (TS) contains ${\alpha}_2{\beta}_2$, which catalyzes the final two steps in Trp biosynthesis. A molecular tunnel exists between the two active sites of ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ subunits in TS. Via intersubunit communication, TS increases catalytic efficiency, including substrate channeling. The ${\beta}$ subunit of TS is composed of two domains, one of which, the COMM (communication) domain, plays an important role in intersubunit communication. The ${\alpha}$ subunit has a TIM barrel structure. This protein has functional regions at the C terminal of ${\beta}$ pleated sheets and in its loop regions. Three regions of the ${\alpha}$ subunit (${\alpha}L6$ [${\alpha}-loop$ L6], ${\alpha}L2$, and ${\alpha}L3$) are implicated in intersubunit communication. In the present study, conformational changes in ${\alpha}L6$ were monitored by measuring the sensitivity of mutant proteins in these regions to trypsin. The addition of a ${\alpha}$ subunit-specific ligand, D,L-${\alpha}$-glycerophosphate (GP), partially restored the sensitivity of mutant proteins to trypsin. In contrast, the addition of the ${\beta}$ subunit-specific ligand L-serine (Ser) resulted in varied sensitivity to trypsin, with an increase in PT53 (substitution of Pro with Thr at residue 53) and DG56, decrease in NS104 and wild type, and no change in GD51 and PH53. This finding may be related to several reaction intermediates formed under this condition. The addition of both GP and Ser led to a highly stable state of the complex. The present results are consistent with the current model. The method used herein may be useful for screening residues involved in intersubunit communication.

  • Purpose: We investigated the effect of open tray impression using pick-up impression coping and close tray impression using transfer impression coping on the accuracy of impression in edentulous patients on their mandibular parts. the effect of material types of pick-up type impression copings for splinting in open tray impression on the accuracy of impression was also evaluated. Materials and Methods: Two implant fixtures were implanted in parallel in the left molar of the mandibular in the shape of a mandibular partial edentulous model. The 40 individual trays were fabricated using 3D printer. The prepared individual trays were classified into 4 groups (i.e., PN, PG, PH, and TN groups), and a total of 40 impression-takings were conducted. A master cast was connected to a Scan Body. The converted STL file was super-imposed on the scan images of the various groups. Results: The order of standard deviation values decreased as follows: PN (0.2343 ± 0.0844 mm), TN (0.2192 ± 0.0840 mm), indicating that the high accuracy of impression for TN group. In addition, for the comparison results between the material types used in splinting the open tray impression, the PH group showed a relatively lower standard deviation (0.1910 ± 0.1176 mm) than that of the PN group (0.2343 ± 0.0844 mm), PG group (0.2556 ± 0.1082 mm). Conclusion: The acrylic resin synthesized by light-induced polymerization exhibited a higher accuracy of impression taking than that of autopolymerizing acrylic resin. Meanwhile, the accuracy of impression taking was not dependent on the implant impression taking method or the presence of connection/fixation of impression copings.

  • Until recently, most people have invested in a traditional portfolio consisting of stocks, bonds and real estates based on the three-division method of properties in Korea. However, this study analyzed the impact of the composition of a portfolio combining representative real estate indirect investment products such as Reits and real estate funds on the investment performance. For this purpose, the empirical analysis using the mean variance model, which is the most appropriate method for the portfolio composition, was used. For variables used in this study, mixed asset portfolios were classified into Portfolio A through Portfolio G depending on the composition of assets, and the price indices selected as Kospi, Krx bond, Reits Trus Y7, Hanwha-Lasal fund, and Office (Seoul). The results are as follows; first Portfolio D, which combined bonds, stocks, Reits and Real Estate funds, and Portfolio G, which added the office, the actual real estate, were shown to have the lowest risk. second, Portfolio B composed of bonds, stocks and Reits and Portfolio D with added real estate funds had the lowest risk while Portfolio F composed of bonds, stocks, offices and real estate funds, and Portfolio G with added Reits were the most profitable. As a result, it has been analyzed that it was more effective to compose a portfolio including Reits and real estate funds, which were real estate indirect investment products that eliminated the illiquidity limitation of real estates than real estates, the traditional three-division method of properties. Therefore, it is possible to minimize the risk of investors and reduce the cost of ownership of the real estate by solving the illiquidity problem that is the biggest disadvantage of the direct investment, In addition, it is considered that it is more necessary to reinvigorate the real estate indirect investment market where small amounts can be invested.

  • 본 연구는 Diluted Ceria 입자를 사용한 $SiO_2$(Oxide) CMP 현상에 대한 내용이다. Ceria Slurry의 경우 Silica Slurry와 비교하였을 때 Oxide Wafer 표면과 축합 화학반응을 일으키며 Chemistry Dominant한 CMP Mechanism을 따르고, Wafer Center Removal Rate(RR) Fast 의 특성을 가진다. Ceria Slurry의 문제점인 연마 불균일도를 해결하기 위해 Tribological System을 이용하였다. CMP Tribology는 Pad-Slurry 유막-Wafer의 System을 가지며 윤활막에 작용하는 마찰계수(COF)가 주요 인자이다. Tribology에 적용되는 Stribeck Curve를 통해 Slurry 윤활막의 두께(h) 정도를 예상할 수 있으며, 이 윤활막의 두께를 조절함으로써 Uniformity 향상이 가능하다. 이 Ceria Slurry CMP의 연마 불균일도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법으로 pH 조절 및 점도 증가가 있다. Ceria 입자 CMP는 분산액의 pH 변화에 강한 작용을 받게 되며 PH5 근방에서 최적화된 Uniformity가 가능하다. 점도를 증가시키는 경우 유막 h가 증가하게 되어 Ceria Slurry의 유동이 균일 분포 상태에 가까워지며 Wafer Uniformity 향상이 가능하다.

  • We have developed a simple synthetic method for fabricating a wafer-scale colloidal crystal film of 2D crystals in a 1D stack based on a combination of two simple processes : the self-assembly of polystyrene (PS) nanospheres at the water-air interface and the layer-by-layer (LbL) scooping transfer technique. The main advantage of this approach is that it allows excellent control of the thickness (at a layer level) of the crystals and the formation of a vertical crack-free layer over a wafer-scale (4 inch). We investigate the optical and morphological properties of the PhC multilayers fabricated using various mono-sized colloidal crystals (250, 300, 350, 420, 580, 720, and 850 nm), and mixed binary colloidal crystals (300/350 and 250/350 nm).

  • The electrical and optical switching characteristics of gold-doped silicon p-i-n diodes have been investigated. The device shows a dark switching voltage of about 500 V. The switching voltage decreases rapidly when the illumination level is increased. The differential sensitivity of optical gating over linear region is $d(V_{Th}/V_{Tho})/dP_{Ph}$=0.25/uW. The turn-on delay time and the turn-on rise time decrease with increasing optical pulse power. The turn-off delay and the fall time are negligible.
