Nopaline synthase promoter의 upstream element region을 본딴 nos-RP 요소라고 불리워진 합성 oligomer는 nos wild type promotor의 5' end에서부터 - 101까지를 절단한 promoter의 upstream에 삽입하였다. Nos promoter의 활성은 nos promoter와 연결되어 있는 reporter gene인 Chlorarnphenicol과 $\beta$-glucuronidase유전 인자들이 발현되는 현상을 연구함으로써 측정하였다. 형질 전환된 유전인자를 가지고 있는 담배 식물에 대한 분석은 nos minimal promoter의 활성이 합성 nos-RP 요소가 삽입됨으로써 회복될 수 있음을 보여 주었다. 또한 Nos minimal promoter의 upstream에 nos-RP 요소의 삽입은 여러 가지 환경적인 요소들인 auxin, dithiothreitol, salicylic acid 그리고 methyl jasmonate에 의해서 활성이 증가됨을 보여 주었다.

PDT-mediated cyototoxicity basically depends on the penetrated light-dose into the tumor tissue. This limits the efficiency of PDT to the superficial tumor region typically less than 1 cm. The localized photochemical generation of reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen is known to increase expression of assortment of early response genes including heat shock protein. In order to increase PDT cytotoxicity in the treatment of solid tumor, it is desirable to combine PDT with other therapeutic effects. In this preliminary study we evaluated enhanced cytotoxicity from the PDT-mediated expression of thymidine kinase in a transfected tumor cell line. Two types of photo sensitizers, a hematoporphyrin derivative(Photogem, Russia) and aluminium sulphonated phthalocyanine(Photosense, Russia) were used to evaluate the overexpression of hsp-70 in PDT-treated cell. Transient increase of hsp-70 was observed at 6-8 hrs later following irradiation in the photosense-treated cell whereas it was not observed in Photogem-treated cell. In the presence of ganciclovia, transfected cell showed a 17％ increase in the cytotoxicity compared to the PDT only cell.

Background: The human mic2 gene is a pseudoautosomal gene that encodes a cell surface antigen, CD99. High levels of CD99 constitute a tumor marker in Ewing s sarcoma (ES). We have recently demonstrated that CD99-induced apoptosis occurs only in undifferentiated ES cells, not in differentiated ES cells, raising the possibility of the involvement of CD99 in neural ontogeny. Methods: To elucidate the relations between the expression of CD99 and the differentiation of neural cells and the mechanism by which the expression of CD99 is regulated, we analyzed the differential patterns of CD99 expression in SH-SY5Y by treatment of 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-phorbol acetate (TPA) and retinoic acid. In addition, to explore the transcriptional activity of CD 99 during neural cell differentiation, SH-SY5Y cells were transiently transfected with a CD99 promoter-driven luciferase construct, and treated with the inducers. Results: In immunoblotting and flow cytometry, the expression level of CD99 was increased on differentiated SH-SY5Y cells induced by TPA and retinoic acid. The luciferase activity was elevated by the treatment with TPA, known to mature SH-SY5Y cells toward a sympathetic neuronal lineage, whereas retinoic acid inducing a sympathetic chromaffin lineage displayed little effect. Conclusion: The result indicates that CD99 might be expressed only on cells maturing toward a neuronal lineage among differentiating primitive neuronal cells. In addition, the expression of CD99 seems to be regulated at the transcriptional level during the differentiation.

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) are major risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of HBV genetic variation and the R249S mutation of the p53 gene, a marker of AFB1-induced HCC, in Thai patients chronically infected with HBV. Sixty-five patients with and 89 patients without HCC were included. Viral mutations and R249S mutation were characterized by direct sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in serum samples, respectively. The prevalences of T1753C/A/G and A1762T/G1764A mutations in the basal core promotor (BCP) region were significantly higher in the HCC group compared to the non-HCC group. R249S mutation was detected in 6.2% and 3.4% of the HCC and non-HCC groups, respectively, which was not significantly different. By multiple logistic regression analysis, the presence of A1762T/G1764A mutations was independently associated with the risk of HCC in Thai patients.

As a part of the study on manufacture of low density paper by organic bulky agent treatment, the effects of cationic fatty acid bulky agent on physical and optical properties of handsheets were elucidated. The research on change of physical and optical properties of paper samples according to bulky agent concentration, pulp type, and pulp combination were carried out. The results demonstrated that an increase of the concentration of cationic fatty acid bulky agent was proportional to an increase of the bulky properties of paper samples while tensile strength decreased. Also, the more the treated concentration of cationic fatty acid bulky agent increased, the more the ISO brightness of paper samples decreased while the opacity increased. The effectiveness of bulky agent with softwood bleached kraft pulp (SwBKP) was higher than that with hardwood bleached kraft pulp (HwBKP). In addition, the effectiveness with mixed pulps was higher than that with single pulp.

The synthesis of Fischer-Tropsch oil is the catalytic hydrogenation of CO to give a range of products, which can be used for the production of high-quality diesel fuel, gasoline and linear chemicals. Our cobalt based catalyst was prepared Co/alumina, silica and titania by the incipient wet impregnation of the nitrates of cobalt and promoter with supports. Cobalt catalysts was calcined at $350^{\circ}C$ before being loaded into the FT reactors. After the reduction of catalyst has been carried out under $450^{\circ}C$ for 24hrs, FT reaction of the catalyst has been carried out at GHSV of 4,000/hr under $200^{\circ}C$ and 20atm. From these test results, we have obtained the results as following ; in case of 12wt% Co-supported $Al_2O_3$, $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ catalysts, maximum activities of the catalysts were appeared at the promoters of Mn, Mo and Ce respectively. The activity of 12wt% $Co/Al_2O_3$ added a Mn promoter was about 3 times as high as that of 12wt% $Co/Al_2O_3$ catalyst without promoters. When it has been the experiment at the range of reaction temperature of $200{\sim}220^{\circ}C$ and GHSV of 1,546~5,000/hr, the results have shown generally increasing the activities with the increase of reaction temperature and GHSV.

For the construction of plasmid and bmNPV sarrying the FRT recognition site for the FLP recombinases, we synthesized the wild type FRT dligonucleotides. The target FRT sequences consist of three 13bp repeated DNA sequences; two repeats in a direct orientation and one inverted relative to the other two. In addition, there is an 8bp spacer region between the repeats which determune the orientation of the FRT recombination site. In order to place the FRT site both in target BmNPV genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, FRT site both in the target BmNPv genome and the transfer vector, we constructed a plasmid, pFRT$\beta$-gal, carrying the FRT sites within the cloning sites of pSV vector and a recombinant BmNPV, vFRTPH, carrying the FRT sites at a downstream of polyhedrin promotor, respectively. In order to test the functionality of the FLP/FRT site-specific recombination system, vFRTPH, pFRT$\beta$-gal and pHsFLP DNA were co-transfected into BmN-4 cells. The resulting recombinant virus was designated a vFRT$\beta$2-gal. From construction analysis of the vFRT$\beta$2-gal with PCR technique it was concluded that the entire pFRT$\beta$-gal plasmid with $\beta$-galactosidase gene and origines of replication flanked by two functional hybrid FRT sequences. The efficiency of recombination was 8.7%, which was higher than that(2.2%) of recombination between a conventional transfer vector and the wild type BmNPV.
