식용대두유의 산화방지를 위하여 항산화제로서 Chelating agents의 항산화효과를 mild한 조건(67ml $O_{2}/min$, $50^{\circ}C$)하에서 A.O.M.법으로 측정하였으며 기기분석법 (UV,IR,MMR)에 의한 측정의 가능여부를 시험한 결과 다음과 같다. 1. Chelating agents의 항산화 효과는 diphenic acid(109.3%), naphthoquinone(111.2%), pyremellitic acid(168.6%), Quinolinic acid(183.6%), naphthalic acid(921.2%) 순으로 증가하였으며, Control에 비하여 각각 9.3, 11.2, 68.6, 83.6, 821.2% 증가하였다. 2. Chelating agents는 항산화 효과를 나타냈으며, 철과 등을 첨가했을 경우에 현저하였다. 또 이들의 항산화 효과는 화합물의 관능기와 분자구조에 따라 다르며 diphenic acid, naphthoquinone 등에서 낮았다. 3. 본 실험과 같이 mild한 조건하에서 NMR 분석법을 이용하여 항산화 효과를 측정할 수 있었으나 UV와 IR은 적당치 않았다.

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms, accompanied by marked cell death in the striatum and cortex. Stereotaxic injection of quinolinic acid (QA) into striatum results in a degeneration of GABAergic neurons and exhibits abnormal motor behaviors typical of the illness. The objective of this study was carried out to obtain basic information about whether parthenogenetic mouse embryonic stem (PmES) cells are suitable for cell replacement therapy of HD. To establish PmES cell lines, hybrid F1 (C57BL/6xCBA/N) mouse oocytes were treated with 7% ethanol for 5 min and cytochalasin-B for 4 hr to initiate spontaneous cleavage. Thus established PmES cells were induced to differentiate using bFGF (20ng/ml) followed by selection of neuronal precursor cells for 8 days in N2 medium. After selection, cells were expanded at the presence of bFGF (20 ng/ml) for another 6 days, then a final differentiation step in N2 medium for 7 days. To establish recipient animal models of HD, young adult mice (7 weeks age ICR mice) were lesioned unilaterally with a stereotaxic injection of QA (60 nM) into the striatum and the rotational behavior of the animals was tested using apomorphine (0.1mg/kg, IP) 7 days after the induction of lesion. Animals rotating more than 120 turns per hour were selected and the differentiated PmES cells (1$\times$10$^4$cells/ul) were implanted into striatum. Four weeks after the graft, immunohistochemical studies revealed the presence of cells reactive to anti-NeuN antibody. However, only a slight improvement of motor behavior was observed. By Nissl staining, cell mass resembling tumor was found at the graft site and near cortex which may explain the slight behavioral improvement. Detailed experiment on cell viability, differentiation and migration explanted in vivo is currently being studied.

The quinolinic acid(QA) phosphoribosyltransferase (PRTase) (EC 2.4.2.19), is a key enzyme involved in NAD$\^$+/ biosynthesis in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, The QAPRTase produces nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NAMN) from QA and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP). For this reaction, the QA is decarboxylated (Fig.1). Produced NAMN is used to a synthesis of nicotinate adenine dinucleotide(NAD$\^$+/).
