암의 방사선 치료는 단독, 혹은 수술이나 화학요법과의 병합치료를 통하여 좋은 생존율을 보여주고 있으나 정상 조직의 손상으로 인한 후유증은 아직도 해결되지 못하고 있는 문제중의 하나이다. 그러므로 정상조직의 손상에 대한 연구는 암 조직의 방사선에 대한 연구와 함께 필수적이며, 근래에 계속되고는 있으나 실제 임상에서 사용되고 있는 방법과 같은 분할조사에 대한 계통적인 연구는 매우 드물다. 이에 저자는 60마리의 백색 마우스를 사용하여 $2\times3cm$의 조사야로 고식적인 방법으로 분할 조사한 후 전 조사량에 따른 병리조직학적인 변화를 분석하고 잠혈반응 검사와의 상관관계를 규명하여, 직장에 심한 후유증이 오지 많을 수 있는 가능한 최대 내 선량을 추정하여 임상치료에 이용할 수 있는 기본 자료로 삼고자 하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 점막 및 점막하 부종은 1,000 rad군에서부터 관찰되었다. 소혈관 울혈은 2,000 rad군에서 현저하였고 염증세포의 침윤은 3,000 rad군에서 현저하였다. 점막의 탈락은 3,000 rad군에서부터 관찰되기 시작하였다. 잠혈반응은 점막탈락, 혹은 괴양의 정확한 척도로 삼기에는 부적당하였으나 총 조사량의 증가와 함께 잠혈반응의 양성도도 증가하는 추세를 보여 간접적인 지표로 삼을 수는 있으리라고 생각되었다. 소낭선세포의 분열상이 5,000 rad군에서도 관찰되는 것으로 미루어 5,000 rad의 조사에서도 재생능력이 남이 있음을 시사하였다.

In this paper we investigate the conditions for derivations under which the Singer-Wermer theorem is true for noncommutative Banach algebra A such that either [[D(x),xD(x)] ${\in}$ rad(A) for all $x{\in}$A or $D(x)^2$x+xD(x))$^2$${\in}$rad(A) for all $x{\in}$A, where rad(A) is the Jacobson radical of A, then $D(A){\subseteq}$rad(A).

방사선 치료에 있어서 정확한 환자 포지셔닝과 셋업은 치료의 성패를 좌우할 수 있는 중요한 인자이다. 기존의 방사선 치료실내에 장착된 3-laser system을 이용한 셋업에서, 최근에는 체표면 윤곽 스캐닝 시스템(C-Rad system)의 사용이 시도되고 있다. 체표면 윤곽 스캐닝 시스템의 유용성을 평가하기 위하여 C-Rad system과 3-laser system을 이용한 셋업 오차의 정확도를 비교, 평가함으로써 임상에서의 유용성을 확인하고자 하였다. 인체부위는 내부적인 움직임이 없고, 고정용구의 적용이 간편한 두경부로 한정하였으며, Alderson Rando anthropomorphic phantom과 두경부에 병변이 있는 방사선 치료 환자 10명을 대상으로 하였다. Phantom을 대상으로 한 C-RAD system의 셋업 에러 평균과 표준편차는 X축 $0.55{\pm}0.51mm$, Y축 $-0.2{\pm}0.523mm$, Z축 $-0.85{\pm}0.587mm$로 나타났으며, 환자를 대상으로 한 실험에서는 X축 $-0.05{\pm}0.621mm$, Y축 $0.075{\pm}0.755mm$, Z축 $-1.025{\pm}0.617mm$로 산출되어, 전반적으로 3-laser system에 비해 셋업의 정확도가 우수하였으나, Z축의 에러 발생률은 C-RAD system이 약간 높게 나타났다. 체표면 윤곽 스캐닝 시스템은 두경부의 방사선 치료 시에 정확한 포지셔닝을 유도함으로써 셋업오차를 최소화 시키는데 기여할 것으로 사료된다.F

Homologous recombination (HR) repair has a crucial role to play in the prevention of chromosomal instability, and it is clear that defects in some HR repair genes are associated with many cancers. To evaluate the potential effect of some HR repair gene polymorphisms with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), we assessed Rad51 (135G>C), Rad52 (2259C>T), XRCC2 (R188H) and XRCC3 (T241M) polymorphisms in Iranian DTC patients and cancer-free controls. In addition, haplotype analysis and gene combination assessment were carried out. Genotyping of Rad51 (135G>C), Rad52 (2259C>T) and XRCC3 (T241M) polymorphisms was determined by PCR-RFLP and PCR-HRM analysis was carried out to evaluate XRCC2 (R188H). Separately, Rad51, Rad52 and XRCC2 polymorphisms were not shown to be more significant in patients when compared to controls in crude, sex-adjusted and age-adjusted form. However, results indicated a significant difference in XRCC3 genotypes for patients when compared to controls (p value: 0.035). The GCTG haplotype demonstrated a significant difference (p value: 0.047). When compared to the wild type, the combined variant form of Rad52/XRCC2/XRCC3 revealed an elevated risk of DTC (p value: 0.007). It is recommended that Rad52 2259C>T, XRCC2 R188H and XRCC3 T241M polymorphisms should be simultaneously considered as contributing to a polygenic risk of differentiated thyroid carcinoma.

RAD6 in yeast mediates postreplication DNA repair and is responsible for DNA-damage induced mutations. RAD6 encodes ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that is well conserved among eukaryotic organisms. However, the molecular targets and consequences of their ubiquitination by Rad6 have remained elusive. In Aspergillus nidulans, a RAD6 homolog has been isolated and shown to be an allele of uvs). We screened a CDNA library to isolate UVSJ-interacting proteins by the yeast two-hybrid system. JIPA was identified as an interactor of UVSJ. Their interaction was confirmed in vitro by a GST-pull down assay. JIPA was also able to interact with mutant UVSJ proteins, UVSJl and the active site cysteine mutant UVSJ-C88A. The N- and the C-terminal regions of UVSJ required for the interaction with UVSH, a RAD18 homolog of yeast which physically interacts with Rad6, were not necessary for the JIPA and UVSJ interactions. About 1.4 kb jipA transcript was detected in Northern analysis and its amount was not significantly increased in response to DNA-damaging agents. A genomic DNA clone of the jipA gene was isolated from a chromosome I specific genomic library by PCR-sib selection. Sequence determination of genomic and cDNA of jipA revealed an ORF of 893 bp interrupted by 2 introns, encoding a putative polypeptide of 262 amino acids. JIPA has 33% amino acid sequence identity to TIP41 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae which negatively regulates the TOR signaling pathway.

For any S-flat module RM(which will be called endoflat) with a commutaitve ring R with identity, where S is the endomorphism ring RM, the fact that every epimorphism is an automorphism has been proved and the Jacobson Radical Rad(S) of S is described as follow; Rad(S) = { f$\in$S｜Imf=Mf is small in M} = {f$\in$S｜Imf $\leq$Rad(M)}. Additionally for any quasi-injective endo-flat module RM, the fact that every monomorphism is an automorphism has been proved and the Jacobson Radical Rad(S) for any quasi-injective endo-flat module has been studied too. Also some equivalent conditions for the semi-primitivity of any faithful endo-flat module RM with the open Jacobson Radical Rad(M) and those for the semi-simplicity of any faithful endo-flat quasi-injective module RM with the closed Socle Soc(M) have been studied.

Rapid apple decline (RAD) is a complex phenomenon affecting cultivated apple trees and particularly dwarf rootstocks on grafted young apple trees. Since its first appearance in the United States, RAD has been reported worldwide, for example in Canada, South America, Africa, and Asia. The phenomenon has also been observed in apple orchards in Korea, and it presented similar symptoms regardless of apple cultivar and cultivation period. Most previous reports have suggested that RAD may be associated with multiple factors, including plant pathogenic infections, abiotic stresses, environmental conditions, and the susceptibility of trees to cold injury during winter. However, RAD was observed to be more severe and affect more frequently apple trees on the Malling series dwarf rootstock. In this study, we reviewed the current status of RAD worldwide and surveyed biotic and abiotic factors that are potentially closely related to it in Korea.

The aim of this study is to identify hRad21-binding sites in human chromosome, the core component of cohesin complex that held sister chromatids together. After chromatin immunoprecipitation with an hRad21 antibody, it was cloned the recovered DNA and sequenced 30 independent clones. Among them, 20 clones (67%) contained repetitive elements including short interspersed transposable elements (SINE or Alu elements), long terminal repeat (LTR) and long interspersed transposable elements (LINE), fourteen of these twenty (70%) repeats clones had Alu elements, which could be categorized as the old and the young Alu Subfamily, eleven of the fourteen (73%) Alu elements belonged to the old Alu Subfamily, and only three Alu elements were categorized as young Alu subfamily. There is no CpG island within these selected clones. Association of hRad21 with Alu was confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation-PCR using conserved Alu primers. The primers were designed in the flanking region of Alu, and the specific Alu element was shown in the selected clone. From these experiments, it was demonstrated that hRad21 could bind to SINE, LTRs, and LINE as well as Alu.

A defect in uvsC of Aspergillus nidulans caused high methyl methansulfonate (MMS)-sensitivity, hyporecombination, and a lack of UV induced mutation. The uvsC gene of Aspergillus nidulans shares a sequence similarity with the RAD51 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study, in vitro and in vivo tests were conducted in order to determine whether or not the UVSC protein had functional similarities to RAD51, the recombination enzyme in yeast. The purified recombinant UVSC protein, following expression in Escherichia coli, showed binding activity to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), when both ATP and magnesium are present. In addition, ATPase activity was also demonstrated and its activity was stimulated in the presence of ssDNA. The UVSC protein that was expressed under the ADH promoter in S. cerevisiae suppressed in part the sensitivity to MMS of the rad51 null mutant. Similarly, when the uvsC cDNA was expressed from the nmt promoter, the MMS sensitivity of the rhp51 null mutant of Schizosaccharomyces pombe was partially complemented. These results indicate that the A. nidulans UVSC protein is a functional homologue of the RAD51 protein.

In order to obtain spherical fine powder, we have developed a new method of high-pressure water atomization system using swirl water jet with the swirl angle $(\omega)$. The effect of nozzle apex angle $(\theta)$ upon the morphology of atomized powders was investigated. Molten copper was atomized by this method, with $\omega=0.2$ rad (swirl water jet) and $\omega=0$ rad (conical water jet). It was found that the median diameter $(D_{50})$ of atomized powders decreased with decreasing $(\theta)$ down to 0.35 rad in each $\omega$, but under ${\theta}<\;0.35$ rad, $D_{50}$ increased abruptly with decreasing $\theta$ for $\omega=0$ rad, while it was still decreased with decreasing $(\theta)$ for $\omega=0.2$ rad.
