  • The purpose of the study was to investigate the interaction effect of garment formality, Yin -Yang level, and body type of children on impression formation. The experimental materials developed for the study were a set of stimuli (8 color photographs) and a response scale (34 bipolar adjectives) and the subjects were 267 elementary school teachers in Taejon area who were responsible for the first grade students. Results were as follows; The 3 independent variables showed significant effects on impression of the 4 factors (sociability, potency, dynamics, cooperation) of impression. Since body type had interaction effects with garment formality and subject's gender, the two body types were separately analyzed. For the normal body type, only the garment formality affected on impression of cooperation factor But for the large body type, garment formality affected on impression of potency dimension, garment Yin-Yang level affected on social and dynamics dimension, and subject's gender affected on social and cooperation dimensions. The body type was the most salient variables and clothing effects for the large body type was significantly different for the normal body type. It is concluded that the results support the cognitive categorization theory on impression formation.

  • Purpose: Nevus sebaceous is a distinctive growth commonly found on the scalp, forehead and retroauricular region. Nevus sebaceous has age-related changes in morphologic and histologic appearance. Secondary neoplasm including basal cell carcinoma is found in 20% of the nevus sebaceous which were not treated properly. So, we report a case of basal cell carcinoma that is arising in nevus sebaceous but has no malignant appearance. Methods: A 38 year-old female patient wanted to excise the lesion on scalp. It looked like typical nevus sebaceous because we didn't find any malignant appearances. We excised the lesion including minimal normal tissue. Results: After the excision of the lesion, pathologist reported the nevus sebaceous with multifocal basal cell carcinoma. Conclusion: Many patients want to excise the nevus sebaceous that stands out to other people. But they don't know the potency of malignant changes. So, plastic surgeons have to notify the potency and make plan for proper treatment.

  • Inflammation is the crucial biological process of immune system which acts as body's defense and protective response against the injuries or infection. However, the systemic inflammation devotes the adverse effects such as multiple inflammation associated diseases. One of the best ways to treat this entity is by blocking the tumor necrosis factor alpha ($TNF-{\alpha}$) and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) to avoid the proinflammation cytokines production. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the potency of Sambucus bioactive compounds as anti-inflammation through in silico approach. In order to assess that, molecular docking was performed to evaluate the interaction properties between the $TNF-{\alpha}$ or TRAIL with the ligands. The 2D structure of ligands were retrieved online via PubChem and the 3D protein modeling was done by using SWISS Model. The prediction results of the study showed that caffeic acid (-6.4 kcal/mol) and homovanillic acid (-6.6 kcal/mol) have the greatest binding affinity against the $TNF-{\alpha}$ and TRAIL respectively. This evidence suggests that caffeic acid and homovanillic acid may potent as anti-inflammatory agent against the inflammation associated diseases. Finally, this study needs further examination and evaluation to validate the potency of Sambucus bioactive compounds.

  • Interaction between epidermis and dermis plays an important role in wound healing and hair follicle formation. This study focused on investigating the potency of ethanol extract of Puerariae Radix (EPR) as cosmetic ingredient using human dermal fibroblasts (hDFn). Our results revealed that EPR suppressed collagenase activity dose-dependently. EPR inhibited activity of $5{\alpha}$-reductase I and II at the final concentration of $25{\mu}g/ml$ in hDFn cells. Also, EPR promoted the proliferation and the ERK activation of cells. ERK phosphorylation by EPR was blocked by specific inhibitor of ERK, PD98059. EPR-induced cell proliferation was blocked by PD98059. This means that EPR could promote the proliferation of hDFn cells via the activation ERK. Collectively, these results suggest that EPR may be used as a new cosmetic ingredient.

  • Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-$\gamma$ is a nuclear hormone receptor family that plays an important role in the transcriptional regulation of genes in cellular lipid and energy metabolism. In our search for Iigands for PPAR-$\gamma$ from natural resources. two phenylpropanoids. 3.4.5-Trimethoxy cinnamylalcohol (1) and 3.4.5- Trimethoxy cinnamaldehyde (2). were isolated as PPAR-$\gamma$ agonists from the MeOH extracts of Zanthoxylum schinifolium Sieb. & ZUCCo (Rutaceae) by activity-guided fractionation. These two compoundS bind and activated PPAR-$\gamma$ transcriptional activity in a dose dependent manner assessed by ligand-binding assay. While the maximum activities for PPAR-$\gamma$ of these compounds were comparable with that of rosiglitazone. which is currently used in the treatment of Type II diabetes. the potency of these compounds were much weaker than rosiglitazone ($ED_{50}$=t.2$\mu\textrm{M}$) with the $ED_{50}$ values of 9.08 and 4.08 $\mu\textrm{M}$. respectively. To examine the structure-activity relationship of phenylpropanoids. we prepared several phenylpropanoid derivatives and measured the activity. We observed that substituents at 4'- position could playa key role in determining the potency for PPAR-$\gamma$ agonistic activity .
