Nowadays, one of the major technical issues in manufacturing is how to implement an virtual plant as an well-designed, integrated environment for sharing information and engineering collaboration among diverse engineering activities. The systematic approaches to make a virtual plant based on a 3-dimensional CAD, cell and line simulation, database and internet technologies are proposed in this paper. To do that, measuring and 3D CAD modeling technologies of many equipments, facilities and structures of the building are developed, effective management of information including models and related files in WWW environment is implemented, and precise simulations of unit cell and whole structured plant are performed. For the beginning of implementing a Virtual Automotive Plant, the Virtual Plant for the Body Shop of a Korean automotive company is constructed and implemented, Using this Virtual Plant ...

In search for plant-derived cytotoxic compounds, it was found that the MeOH extracts obtained from Amanita pantherina(DC. ex Fr.) Krombh exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against human tumor cell line. The classical fractionation on the basis of the inhibitory activity upon the growth human tumor cell line. in vitro, and repeated column chromatography afforded several cytotoxic compounds from Amanita pantherina (DC, ex Fr.) Krombh. (omitted)

Ginseng root explants and calli induced from selected cell lines were cultured on modified Murashige and Skoog's media supplemented with different concentrations of organic or inorganic compounds and plant growth requlators to clarify the effects of chemical composition and plant growth regulators in the medium on the growth of ginseng calli and the production of ginseng saponin. For optimum growth of calli, the concentrations of 2, 4-D and sucrose were the range of 1 to 3 mg/${\ell}$l and 1 to $3\%,$ respectively. And it was clarified that sucrose, nitrogen, phosphate, calcium, magmesian plant growth regulators and their concentrations influcenced the relative biosynthesis of saponin in tissue cultures of Panax ginseng. The patterns of ginsenosides, pharmacologically useful component, were different among the cell lines and contents of ginsenosides were much higher in selected cell lines than in original cell line.

This study was carried out to select cadmium resistant cell lines from leaf-derived calli of diploid and haploid of Nicotiana tabacum cv. BY4, for understanding adaptation mechanism of plants in cadmium contaminated environment. suspended cell clumps were plated onto selection medium containing 0 to 2,000 $\mu$M cadmium. Cadmium resistant colonies were formed on the selection medium after 3 or 4 weeks of culture. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of cadmium on colony formation were 300 $\mu$M in diploid and 200 $\mu$M in haploid plants, respectively. In order to test the resistance to cadmium, selected cell line on MIC were transferred to medium containing high concentration of cadmium. The selected cell lines, especially haploid cell line, were resistant an the high concentration of cadmium. And dry weight, ash weight, and cadmium contents of cell were increased. These results indicated that the selected cell lines showed higher resistance of cadmium than control cells, and haploid plant is more resistant than diploid plant on medium with cadmium.

The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) gene was introduced into tobacco plants. The cell suspension culture was established from leaf-derived calli of the transgenic tobacco plants in order to express and secrete a biologically active hGM -CSF. The recombinant hGM-CSF from the transgenic plant cell culture (prhGM-CSF) was identified as a yield of about 180 ${\mu}$g/L in the culture filtrate, as determined by ELISA. The addition of 0.5 g/L polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to the plant cell culture medium both stabilized the secreted prhGM-CSF and increased the level of production approximately 1.5-fold to 270 ${\mu}$g/L. The biological activity of the prhGM-CSF was confirmed by measuring the proliferation of the hGM-CSF-dependent cell line, TF-1. Interestingly, the specific activity of the prhGM-CSF was estimated to be approximately 2.7 times higher than that of a commercially available preparation from E. coli.

Utilizing the foreign gene expression system of Drosophila melanogaster Schneider line 2(S2) cell, the degree of transient protein and mRNA expression was examined with different terminators. In the case of transient expression, the expression level of green fluorescent protein(GFP) was the highest when the transfection agent was eliminated and then cultivated for 36 to 48 hr. The terminators(SV40 p(A), SV40 small T-antigen and human gastrin 3'UTR) of the expression vector system were each cloned with endostatin; thereafter, the expression levels of the endostatin and its mRNA were compared. When the expression levels of endostatin were compared 36 hr after transfection, the SV40 p(A) terminator showed the highest expression level of endostatin and its mRNA.

Resistant cell lines to azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (AZCA) were selected through rice embryo culture after mutagenic treatment of callus irradiated with 30,50,70,90 and 120 Gy. The optimum AZCA concentration for the selection of resistant cell lines was 3 or 4 mM AZCA considering $LD_{50}$ and the fresh weight of callus. Survival rate of the AZCA resistant callus showed remarkable increase in the callus irradiated with 50 and 70 Gy. Regeneration rate of the AZCA resistant callus was much lower on the whole. Ninety and 120 Gy increased the regeneration rate for calli selected from 3 and 4 mM AZCA, respectively. Based on fresh weight, survival rate and regeneration for selection of the AZCA resistant cell line, 50-90 Gy was considered as the optimum range of gamma irradiation. Irradiated calli selected from AZCA were more tolerant to NaCl than those from non-irradiated calli. It suggests that elevated resistance to osmotic stress resulted from mutagenic treatment. The level of free proline content in the AZCA resistant cell line was increased up to 3.5 times compared with that in the control. Proline content in the regenerant derived from the AZCA resistant cell line also increased to 1.7 times that from the control plants regenerated from callus grown in AZCA free medium. Selection of proline overproducing cell lines by in vitro mutagenesis was successful and seems to be useful for improvement of stress tolerance in this crop.

Cytoprotective ability of polysaccharides isolated from different edible mushrooms was investigated on the 7-ketocholesterol-induced damaged cell line. Polysaccharide extracts from six different edible mushrooms-Flammulina velutipes, Peurotus ostreatus, Lentinus edodes, Agrocybe aegerita, Agaricus blazei, and Cordyceps militaris- were prepared by hot water extraction and alcohol precipitation. Cytoprotective ability was evaluated by measuring the viable cells of the normal embryonic liver cell line (BNL CL. 2) in the presence of 7-ketocholesterol. At $80\;{\mu}g/mL$ of 7-ketocholesterol, cytotoxicity was very high with a loss of 98% of viable cells after 20 h of incubation. With the addition of $200\;{\mu}g/mL$ of each polysaccharide isolate to the cell line containing $80\;{\mu}g/mL$ of 7-ketocholesterol, polysaccharide isolates from both Flammulina velutipes and Peurotus ostreatus could significantly inhibit the 7-ketochoelsterol-induced cytotoxicity in the cells. But other polysaccharide isolates were not effective in inhibiting cell damage caused by the oxLDL-induced cytotoxicity.

SOD2-transgenic $T_3$ petunia line (A2-36-2-1-1-35) was treated with different levels of methyl viologen (MV) to determine its resistance to oxidative stress. Four (4) levels of MV (0, 100, 200, and $400\;{\mu}M$) were applied. The SOD2-transgenic $T_3$ petunia line exhibited a very significant oxidative stress resistance at the highest MV concentration ($400\;{\mu}M$) treatment compared to non-transgenic plant. RNA and protein expression of SOD2 transgene and higher parenchyma cell density in the transgenic petunias exhibiting resistance to oxidative stress proves its contribution to the expression of its resistance to oxidative stress.
