In an attempt to clarify the physiological functions of individual isoperoxidases, we have studied enzymatic and immunological properties as well as cellular distribution of isoperoxidases from tobacco callus and Korean radish. The gene expression patterns of isoperoxidases in shoot and non-shoot-forming tobbaco callus were also examined by rabbit reticulocyte lysatein vitro translation system. These results indicate that fraction of translatable poly(A)-isoperoxidase mRNA was increased considerably in shoots. At the present time, at least 6-7 isoperoxidases could be detected from the translation mixture of total cellular RNA, among which only one cell wall localized anodic isoperoxidase (named A3) mRNA was bimorphic mRNA. These data suggest the possible regulation of peroxidase activity during shoot formation by altering the polyadenylation state of mRNA. In case of Korean radish seedlings, poly(A)- peroxidase mRNA were also increased depending upon aging.

Metastability in the native form of proteins has been recognized as a mechanism of biological regulation. The strained native structure of serpins (serine proteinase inhibitors) is a typical example. The native strain of serpins is considered to be crucial to their physiological functions, such as plasma proteinase inhibition, hormone delivery, Alzheimer filament assembly, and extracellular matrix remodeling.(omitted)

The olfactory bulb (OB) has an extremely higher proportion of interneurons innervating excitatory neurons than other brain regions, which is evolutionally conserved across species. Despite the abundance of OB interneurons, little is known about the diversification and physiological functions of OB interneurons compared to cortical interneurons. In this review, an overview of the general developmental process of interneurons from the angles of the spatial and temporal specifications was presented. Then, the distinct features shown exclusively in OB interneurons development and molecular machinery recently identified were discussed. Finally, we proposed an evolutionary meaning for the diversity of OB interneurons.

Applying the theory of physiology and control systems, the visual system was studied as a regulator of impining light. The characteristics function of visual system is mainly analysed by spato-temporal characteristics based upon Enroth's model, Broca-Sulzer phenomenon and Mach effect. Some aims of this paper are as follows. (1) In order to get the excitatory and inhibitory potential of the intermediated cell layer in the retina, the exponential value, {exp(FM/kT)- $I_{mn}$ } is caculated based on the physiological theory in neuro-phenomena. (2) To show the visual characteristics by analog simulation for generating stimulus waveforms and analysis, the visual adaptation was recorded as electrical stimulation in the form of step functions. Furthermore, ti is shown that the above experimental data agrees satisfactorily with the theoretical (psychophysiological) values. This study is expected to lead to further studies concerned with human observer and human operator in control and especially pattern recognition systems.stems.

Nl and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. Nl -N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant Nl -N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip 15 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both nonlinear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by Nl -N2 audiograms. Key words : Guinea Pig, Cochlea, Wl and N2 Gross Neural Action Potential, Nl -N2 audiogram.

Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by decreased bone mass, which results in a markedly increased risk of traumatic fractures. This disease is a worldwide health problem with a high prevalence. Recently, various dietary components have been found to minimize the risk of developing osteoporosis through their ability to stimulate bone formation and optimize bone health. Among them, probiotics and fermented milk can have beneficial effects to human health. Bioactive compounds derived from probiotics in fermented milk can especially modulate physiological functions related to bone health. Here, we review the evidence to support these insights into newly found functionality of dairy foods for osteoporosis prevention.

Peroxiredoxins are ubiquitous thiol proteins that catalyse the breakdown of peroxides and regulate redox activity in the cell. Kinetic analysis of their reactions is required in order to identify substrate preferences, to understand how molecular structure affects activity and to establish their physiological functions. Various approaches can be taken, including the measurement of rates of individual steps in the reaction pathway by stopped flow or competitive kinetics, classical enzymatic analysis and measurement of peroxidase activity. Each methodology has its strengths and they can often give complementary information. However, it is important to understand the experimental conditions of the assay so as to interpret correctly what parameter is being measured. This brief review discusses different kinetic approaches and the information that can be obtained from them.

Circadian rhythms govern a remarkable variety of metabolic and physiological functions. Accumulating epidemiological and genetic evidence indicates that the disruption of circadian rhythms might be directly linked to cancer. Intriguingly, several molecular gears constituting the clock machinery have been found to establish functional interplays with regulators of the cell cycle, and alterations in clock function could lead to aberrant cellular proliferation. In addition, connections between the circadian clock and cellular metabolism have been identified that are regulated by chromatin remodelling. This suggests that abnormal metabolism in cancer could also be a consequence of a disrupted circadian clock. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the molecular links that connect the circadian clock to the cell cycle and metabolism could provide therapeutic benefit against certain human neoplasias.

Bile acids are major constituents of bile and known to help absorb dietary fat and fat-soluble vitamins in the gastrointestinal tract. In the past few decades, many studies have shown that bile acids not only play a role in fat digestion but also function as broad range of signal transduction hormones by binding to various receptors present in cell membranes or nuclei. Bile acid receptors are distributed in a wide range of organs and tissues in the human body. They perform multitudes of physiological functions with complex mechanisms. When bile acids bind to their receptors, they regulate fat and glucose metabolism in a tissue-specific way. In addition, bile acids are shown to inhibit inflammation and fibrosis in the liver. Considering the roles of bile acids as metabolic regulators, bile acids and their receptors can be very attractive targets in treating metabolic disorders. In the future, if roles of bile acids and their receptors are further clarified, they will be the novel target of drugs in the treatment of various metabolic diseases.

This study is to explore the function of white hair motif in Gosijo. And to use the results in literature therapy programs. The white hair motif in the Gosijo of the study ignites the sadness. And every time we read this work repeatedly, the sadness is amplified. This amplification of sadness plays a role in healing the human body. This white hair motif of Gosijo covers the death motif and become energy to support life. In the future, if we study the literary physiological functions of Gosijo in the future, it seems that literature will give us a more healing life.
