본연구의 목적은 흰쥐의 임신 초기에 있어서 착상의 유발에 PAF의 관련여부를 PAF의 수용체 길항제인 BN-52021d의 작용과 비교하여 결정하기 위함이다. 임신초기 각일에 점증하는 용량의 BN-52021 (체중 200g당 10$\mu$g 내지 1.25mg)이 근육내로 주사되었을때 10$\mu$g내지 250$\mu$g 용량에서는 대조구에 비하여 착상부위의 수 혹은 이것을 가진 흰쥐의 수에 대하여 현저한 영향을 미치지 아니하였으나 1.25mg투여 경우에는 현저히 감소된 효과를 나타내었다.(P<0.05). PAF(1$\mu$g) 경우에는 대조구와 비교하여 현저한 차이는 없었다. 임신 초기 각일에 BN-52021(1.25mg)과 검증하는 용량의 PAF(0.04$\mu$g 내지 1.0$\mu$g)가 동시에 투여된 경우에는 PAF의 농도가 증가함에 따라서 착상 부위의 수도 증가하는 경향이었으나 현저하지는 아니하였다. 본 실험 결과는 PAF는 흰쥐의 임신 초기 반응에 관련된다는 사실을 보여준다.

Dihydrotestoterone (DHT)은 난소내 폐쇄를 유발한다고 보고 되었으나, 반대로 폐쇄를 억제한다는 상반된 주장이 있어왔다. 본 연구는 난소내 폐쇄되는 기작을 밝히는 연구의 일환으로 흰쥐의 DHT를 처리하여 난포가 폐쇄되는지 여부와 폐쇄된다면 스테로이드 수용체, 특히 에스트라디올 수용체에 어떠한 영향을 주는지를 조사하고자 하였다. 미성숙 흰쥐의 뇌하수체를 절제(HPX)하고, 35IU의 PMSG 처리후 Dihydrotestoterone enathate (DHTE)를 lmg-5mg/kg 체중 농도로 처리하여 난포의 폐쇄여부를 조직학적으로 검경하였다. PMSG,PMSG-DHTE 공히 강소를 형성한 난포의 acid phosphatase 활성도를 증가시켰고, 또한 난포의 폐쇄를 유발하였다. 흰쥐의 난소내 estrogen receptor (ER)의 수는 과립세포에서도 세포질내 ER은 핵내로 이용되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 DHTE는 난소내 ER의 농도를 감소시켰다. 이 결과로 보아 난포내 DHTE는 ER의 농도를 감소시켜 폐쇄를 유발하는 요인으로 작용할 것이라는 결론을 얻었다.

A DNA construct containing rat T $\alpha$ 1 $\alpha$ -tuulin gene 5'-flanking sequence and GFP reporer gene was microinjected into 1-cell loach embryos. Neuron-specific FGP expression was observed in developing loach embryos and early stage fry. The results demonstrated that rat T $\alpha$ 1 $\alpha$ -tubulin gene promoter may be sufficient to specify gene expression to neurons in loach embryos. Thus, the use of GFP reporter controlled by T $\alpha$ 1 $\alpha$ -tubulin gene promoter may facilitate visualization of the dynamic processes of neural tissue development.

In order to investigate the side-effects of crude drugs, twenty drugs have been tested for the teratogenic effect in rats. Among seven drugs contained alkaloid as their ingredients, no one showed teratogenic effect, but Veratri rhizoma showed embryo-toxic as revealed by severe retardation in growth of the fetuses. The other thirteen drugs which have been used freguently in oriental medicines exhibited no teratogenic effect. Cyclophosphamide used as a reference compound showed severe malformation and retardation in the growth of rat fetuses. These findings suggest that the drug extracts adopted for the study might have no teratogenic effect in the rats.

This experiment was carried out to investigate effects of DMSO or ethylene glycol as a cryopotectant and of freezing methods on survival rate of forozen-thawed rat 2-cell embryos by morphological observation. 2-cell embryos were recovered from oviducts of Sprague Dawley females mated with males of same strain on day 2 of pregnancy after inducing superovulation by intrapertioneal injection of PMSG and HCG. In slow freezing and thawing groups, embryos were frozen to -79$^{\circ}C$ or -196$^{\circ}C$ in a glass test tube containing 0.2ml PBI with 1.5M DMSO or 1.2M ethylene glycol at a rate of 0.3-1.0C/min. and thawed slowly. When samples were frozen to -79$^{\circ}C$, higher survival rate was obtained in the medium containing DMSO (43.9%) than ethylene glycol (41%). And similar result was obtained (32.5% in DMSO vs. 31.4% in ethylene glycol) when samples were frozen. In rapid freezing and thawing groups, embryos were frozen to -79 or -196$^{\circ}C$ in a glass test tube containing 0.2ml of PBI with 1.5M DMSO or 1.2M ethylene glycol by rapid cooling, and thawed rapidly. When samples were frozen to -79$^{\circ}C$, 1.5M DMSO (13.2%) was more effective than 1.2M ethylene glycol (6.1%). When the storage temperature was -196$^{\circ}C$, survival rates were 9.8% in 1.5M and 5.4% in 1.2M ethylene glycol.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the potential adverse effects of 2-BP on pregnant dams and embryo-fetal development after maternal exposure during the gestational days (GD) 6 through 19 in Sprague-Dawley rats. The test chemical was administered subcutaneously to pregnant rats at dose levels of 0, 375, 750 and 1250 mg/kg/day. During the test period, clinical signs, mortality, body weights and food consumption were examined. All dams were subjected to caesarean section on GD 20 and their fetuses were examined for external, visceral and skeletal abnormalities. At above 750 mg/kg, toxic effects including signs of toxicity, suppressed body weight, decreased gravid uterine weight and reduced food intake were observed in pregnant dams. An increase in the fetal deaths, a decrease in the litter size, a reduction in the fetal body weight and an increase in the incidence of fetal morphological alterations were also found. There were no adverse effects on either pregnant dams or embryo-fetal development at a dose level of 375 mg/kg. These results suggest that a 14-day subcutaneous dose of 2-BP is embryolethal and teratogenic at above 750 mg/kg/day in pregnant rats. In the present experimental condition, the no-observed-adverse-effect level of 2-BP is considered to be 375 mg/kg/day for dams and embryo-fetuses, respectively.

This study was carried out to find out the properties of rice grain with embryo part. Obong-byeo. The embryo part on the rice remained by 96.7% in Obongbyeo after complete removal of the brans by common milling method. In nutritional composition. the content of lipid. vitamin B$_1$ and niacin were greater in Obongbyeo than Nagdongbyeo as a check variety. In particular. the contents of vitamin B$_1$ and niacin were about 1,5 times higher. Increased weight and feed effect of rat raising with milled rice were 107 and 172% in Obongbyeo and 101 and 125% in Nagdongbyeo. respectively. Eating quality of Obongbyeo was better than Nagdongbyeo.
