혈소판 응집의 조절은 정상적인 지혈을 유지하는 데 중요하지만 비정상적이거나 과도한 혈소판 응집은 뇌졸중, 죽상동맥 경화증 및 혈전증과 같은 심혈관 질환에 기여할 수 있다. 따라서 혈소판 응집을 제어하거나 억제할 수 있는 물질을 식별하는 것은 이러한 상태의 예방 및 치료를 위한 유망한 접근 방식이다. Artemisia 또는 Scopolia 속 식물에서 추출한 artemisinin은 항암 및 알츠하이머병 연구와 같은 다양한 분야에서 가능성을 보여주었다. 그러나 artemisinin이 혈소판 활성화 및 혈전 형성에 영향을 미치는 구체적인 역할과 메커니즘은 아직 완전히 밝혀지지 않았다. 이 연구는 혈소판 활성화 및 혈전 형성에 대한 artemisinin의 효과를 조사하였다. 그 결과, cAMP 생성과 cAMP 의존성 kinase에 대한 기질인 VASP 및 IP₃R의 인산화가 artemisinin에 의해 유의미하게 증가되었다. IP₃R의 인산화는 조밀한 관형 시스템에서 정상적으로 동원되는 Ca²⁺를 억제하였고, VASP의 인산화는 αIIb/β₃ 혈소판 막 불활성화를 통한 fibrinogen 결합을 억제하였다. 마지막으로, artemisinin은 thrombin이 유발하는 혈전 형성을 농도의존적으로 억제하였다. 따라서 우리는 artemisinin이 혈소판 활성화의 효과적인 예방 및 치료제로 작용하여 비정상적인 혈소판 응집 및 혈전 형성으로 인해 유발되는 심혈관 질환의 개선에 기여할 수 있음을 제안한다.

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between between one's quality of life (QoL) level and the arterial stiffness estimated by the second derivative of photoplethysmogram (SDPTG) for women patients. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on charts of 407 women patients (38.38±11.82 years) who visited Gangdong Kyung Hee Hospital between April 1st and September 30th, 2011. Vascular aging index (VAI, (b-c-d)/a), b/a, c/a, and d/a were considered as the arterial stiffness indexes, and the Korean version of the Short-Form 36 (SF-36) were completed to estimate one's physical and mental QoL. Results: Physical and mental components of the SF-36 in older group (50, 60, and 70 years-group) were lower than those in younger group (20 and 30 years-group). Large arterial stiffness-related b/a in older group was higher that in younger group, while small arterial stiffness-related d/a in older group was lower that in younger group. Physical and mental component scores of the SF-36 had the negative correlations with VAI and b/a (r; -0.153~-0.195), while had the positive correlations with c/a and d/a (r; 0.147~0.228). Conclusions: In conclusion, this study suggests that convenient and cost-effective SDPTG test may serve as an auxiliary tool to estimate one's physical and mental QoL.

Phytophthora rot on jujube fruit has occurred at several cultivation areas in Kyung-buk and Kyung-nam provinces. Symptoms consisted of brownish to reddish rot on fruits resulting in early drop or mummification. The causal fungus isolated from infected fruits and adjacent leaf stalks was identified as Phytophthora citricola, which has never been reported in Korea. Sporangia were semi-papillate, noncaducous and highly variable in shapes. Plerotic oospores with paragynous antheridia were abundant is single cultures. Sporangia of two isolates were measured as 38-76$\times$20-40 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and averaged 51.4$\times$27.0 and 55.6$\times$36.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Oogonia were ranged from 26 to 36 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and averaged 31.3 and 32.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Colony pattern was slightly radiated with sparse aerial mycelia on common media. Minium, optimum and maximum temperatures for mycelial growth were recorded at 7, 25, and 32$^{\circ}C$, respectively. Among tested media, 10% V8A was the best and $25^{\circ}C$ was better than 15$^{\circ}C$ for oospore formation of the fungus. The jujube isolates of P. citricola were readily differentiated from other closely related species in the genus, namely; P. nicotianae, P. citrophthora, P. cactorum, P. capsici, and P. plalmivora on the basis of PCR-RFLP of r-DNA. The fungus showed strong pathogenicty to jujube, apple, pear, orange, persimmon and eggplant, and relatively weak to citron, tomato, pepper and cucumber. In this study, P. citrocola is firstly identified and jujube fruit rot caused by the fungus is recorded as a new disease in Korea.

In this paper, pressure drop through a capillary tube is modeled to determine the length of a capillary tube for a given set of conditions. HCFC-22 and its alternatives, HFC-134a, R407B, and R410A are used as working fluids. The conditions on which the model is tested are as follows : condensing temperature; 40.0, 45.0, 50.0, $55.0^{\circ}C$, degree of subcooling;0.0, 2.5, $5.0^{\circ}C$, capillary tube exit condition;choked flow, capillary tube diameter;1.2~2.4mm, mass flow rate;5.0~50.0g/sec. The results justify the use of Stoecker's model which yields the results very close to the values in ASHRAE handbook. While McAdams' method yields much better results than Duckler's in calculating the viscosity of the fluid in 2-phase, the friction factor suggested by Stoecker seems to be the best for capillary tubes of large diameter used in residential air conditioners. For each refrigerant, 372 data with various variables are calculated by the model. The results show that capillary tube length varies very uniformly with changes in condensing temperature and degree of subcooling. Based on this fact, regression analysis is performed to determine the dependence of mass flow rate on the length and diameter of a capillary tube, condensing temperature, and degree of subcooling. Thus determined correlation yields a mean deviation of 2.36% for 1,488 data, showing an excellent agreement.

The pharmacokinetic properties and antiinflammatory activity of 3% ketoprofen lotion (ID-lotion), formulated with poloxamer 407, were evaluated using rats. For the pharmacokinetic study, the lotion, at the dose of 4.5 mg/kg, was applied on the dorsal skin of rats and the drug concentration in plasma was determined using an HPLC method. As references, ketoprofen suspended in saline was administered orally, and E-lotion, which is a 3% ketoprofen lotion in the Japanese market was applied transdermally. Following the transdermal application of ID-lotion and E-lotion, $C_{max}$ were 316 $\pm$22.3 ng/ml and 163 $\pm$ 12.2 ng/ml, respectively, at the same Tma of 2 hours postdose, while $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ after oral administration of the drug were 1,030$\pm$89.1 ng/ml and 0.25 hours, respectively. Relative bioavailabilities of ID-lotion and I-lotion were 69.3% and 34.2%, respectively. The antiinflammatory activity of the two 3% ketoprofen lotions was evaluated with carrageeneninduced edema method after 50 mg of the lotions was applied on the paw of rats. ID-lotion showed 67.6% inhibition of the edema formation, while I-lotion showed 34.\\\\`r%. The calculated ED5o after transdermal application of ID-lotion was 2.5 mg/kg, while that after oral administration was 7.0 mg/kg. Based on these results, the relative equiponderal availability of ID-lotion was 296% compared to the oral administration of ketoprofen.n.n.n.

Effects of oxygen deficiency on the room temperature ferromagnetism in Fe-doped reduced $TiO_2$ have been investigated by comparing the air-annealed $Ti_{0.97}Fe_{0.03}O_2$ compound with secondly post-annealed one in vacuum ambience. The air-annealed sample showed a paramagnetic behavior at room temperature. However, when the sample was further annealed in vacuum, a strongly enhanced ferromagnetic behavior was observed at same temperature. $M{\"{o}}ssbauer$ spectra of air-annealed sample at 295K showed a single doublet of $Fe^{3+}$, suggesting that the Fe ions are paramagnetic. On the other hand, the absorption spectra after vacuum-annealing exhibited two doublets, in which one is the same component with air-annealed sample and the other is new doublet corresponding to $Fe^{2+}$ state. This result suggests that the occurrence of ferromagnetism in reduced sample may be interpreted as the contribution of unquenched orbital moment of $Fe^{2+}$ ions.

본 연구에서는 심미성 향상을 위한 3종의 GS 복합 레진의 굽힘 특성 평가를 위해 ISO 4049 규격에 따라 실험을 설계하여 3점 FS 실험을 통하여 FS와 FM, WOF를 측정하고 분석하여 각각의 기계적 특성간의 상호 상관성 및 신뢰도를 평가하고, GS 복합레진의 기계적 거동 평가 및 재료 선택에 유용한 정보를 얻고자 하였다. 그 결과, 3종의 GS 복합레진의 FS와 FM은 TP에서 가장 높았으며, TF의 FS는 ISO 권장 강도인 80 MPa에 미치지 못했다. 파절될 때 흡수한 에너지를 나타내는 WOF는 T에서 가장 높았으며, TP에서 가장 낮았다. GS 복합 레진의 FS, FM은 재료별 유의한 차이를 보였으나(p<0.05), WOF는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). GS 복합 레진의 와이블 계수는 TP에서 가장 높았으며(m=14.22) 신뢰도가 높았고, CL에서 가장 낮은 값(m=6.09)으로 낮은 신뢰도를 보였다. 복합 레진은 각각의 굽힘 특성 간 매우 높은 상관성을 보였으며($r^2>0.97$), FS와 WOF, FM과와 WOF는 높은 음의 상관성을 보였다. 따라서 굽힘 특성 간의 기계적 거동 평가에 중요한 요인으로 상호 상관성이 입증되었으며, 향후 재료 선택에 있어서 임상 적용 시 중요한 지표로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The characteristics of meteorological conditions relevant to Asian dust (AD) outbreaks and their occurrence frequencies were analyzed in four source regions (R1 to R4) during spring months (March to May) of 1995-2002. Moreover, the concentration variations of AD (e.g., $PM_{10}$) observed in Korea were investigated during the study period. In the relationship between AD outbreaks and three meteorological parameters (i.e., air temperature, wind speed, and aridity), the largest AD outbreaks in April (${\sim}250$ observations) mostly occurred in R2 when air temperature ranging from 10.0 to $15^{\circ}C$ and surface wind speed from 7 to $9m\;s^{-1}$ were recorded. Moreover, the aridity ($\geq4$) in April was significantly high in R2 with the maximum frequency of AD outbreaks (i.e., 206 observations). On the other hand, the number (percentage) of days belonging to AD events observed in five Korean cities were found to be 116 (44%), 121 (46%), and 26 days (10%) in March, April, and May, respectively. The mean $PM_{10}$ concentrations were found to range from 150 to 220, 150 to 200, and 95 to $120{\mu}g\;m^{-3}$ in March, April, and May, respectively. Consequently, this implied that the AD events in Korea were found to be gradually frequent in early spring and to be affected from the large AD outbreaks observed in the source regions.
