The structures of fully dehydrated Ca2+- and Rb+-exchanged zeolite X, Ca31Rb30Si100Al92O384(Ca31Rb30-X; a=25.009(1) Å) and Ca28Rb36Si100Al92O384(Ca28Rb36-X; a=24.977(1) Å), have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in the cubic space group Fd&bar{3} at 21(1) ℃. Their structures were refined to the final error indices R1=0.048 and R2=0.041 with 236 reflections for Ca31Rb30-X, and R1=0.052 and R2=0.043 with 313 reflections for Ca28Rb36-X; I>3σ(I). In both structures, Ca2+ and Rb+ ions are located at six different crystallographic sites. In dehydrated Ca31Rb30-X, sixteen Ca2+ ions fill site I, at the centers of the double 6-rings (Ca-O=2.43(1) Å and O-Ca-O=93.3(3)°). Another fifteen Ca2+ ions occupy site II (Ca-O=2.29(1) Å, O-Ca-O=119.5(5)°) and fifteen Rb+ ions occupy site II opposite single six-rings in the supercage; each is 1.60 Å from the plane of three oxygens (Rb-O=2.77(1) Å and O-Rb-O=91.1(4)°). About two Rb+ ions are found at site II', 1.99 Å into sodalite cavity from their three-oxygen plane (Rb-O=2.99(1) Å and O-Rb-O=82.8(4)°). The remaining thirteen Rb+ ions are statistically distributed over site III, a 48-fold equipoint in the supercages on twofold axes (Rb-O=3.05(1) Å and Rb-O=3.38(1) Å). In dehydrated Ca28Rb36-X, sixteen Ca2+ ions fill site I (Ca-O=2.41(1) Å and O-Ca-O=93.6(3)°) and twelve Ca2+ ions occupy site II (Ca-O=2.31(1) Å, O-Ca-O=119.7(4)°). Sixteen Rb+ ions occupy site II; each is 1.60 Å from the plane of three oxygens (Rb-O=2.81(1) Å and O-Rb-O=90.6(3)°) and four Rb+ ions occupy site II'; each is 1.88 Å into sodalite cavity from their three-oxygen plane (Rb-O=2.99(1) Å and O-Rb-O=83.8(2)°). The remaining sixteen Rb+ ions are found at III site in the supercage (Rb-O=2.97(1) Å and Rb-O=3.39(1) Å). It appears that Ca2+ ions prefer sites I and II in that order, and that Rb+ ions occupy the remaining sites. Rb+ ions are too large to be stable at site I, when they are competing with other smaller cations like Ca2+ ions.

The crystal structure of dehydrated $Rb^+$-exchanged zeolite X, stoichiometry $Rb_{71}Na_{21}-X\; (Rb_{71}Na_{21}Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384})$ per unit cell, has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction date gathered by counter methods. The structure was solved and refined in the cubic space group Fd3, a=25.007(3) Å at 21(1) ℃. The crystal was prepared by ion exchange in a flowing stream using a 0.05 M aqueous RbOH solution (pH=12.7). The crystal was then dehydrated at 360 ℃ and $2{\times}10^{-6}$ torr for two days. The structure was refined to the final error indices, $R_1=0.047$ and $R_2=0.040$ with 239 reflections for which I> 3σ(I). In this structure, 71 $Rb^+$ ions per unit cell are found at six different crystallographic sites and 21 $Na^+$ ions per unit cell are found at two different crystallographic sites. Four and a half $Rb^+$ ions are located at site Ⅰ, the center of the hexagonal prism. Nine $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅰ' in the sodalite cavity (Rb-O=2.910(15) Å and O-Rb-O=78.1(4)°). Eighteen $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅱ in the supercage (Rb-O=2.789(9) Å and O-Rb-O=92.1(4)°). Two and a half $Rb^+$ ions, which lie at site Ⅱ', are recessed ca. 2.07 Å into the sodalite cavity from their three O(2) oxygen planes (Rb-O=3.105(37) Å and O-Rb-O=80.6(5)°). Thirty-two $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅲ deep in the supercage (Rb-O=2.918(12) Å and O-Rb-O=71.9(4)°), and five $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅲ'. Seven $Na^+$ ions also lie at site Ⅰ. Fourteen $Na^+$ ions are found at site Ⅱ in the supercage (Na-O=2.350(19) Å and O-Na-O=117.5(6)°).

72예의 원발성 폐암조직에서 두 종양억제유전자 RB와 p53의 단백질 발현 빈도를 면역조직화학적 방법으로 검출한 결과 RB 단백질 발현은 38예 (52.8%)에서 감소하거나 소실되었고, 변이형 p53 단백질은 35예(48.6%)에서 발현을 보였다. 이들의 발현 빈도는 폐암의 조직형에 따라 유의한 차이를 보여 RB는 선암에서 그리고 p53은 편평세포암에서 발현율이 높았다(p＜0.05). 그러나 임상 병기와는 두 단백질의 발현율과는 상관이 없었다. 폐암 환자의 2년 생존율은 두 단백질 발현의 변화가 동반된 군(RB-/p53+)에서 22.4%, 두 단백질 발현의 변화가 전혀 없는 군(RB+/p53-)에서 63.1%로 두 군 사이에 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p＜0.05).본 연구에서 RB와 p53단백질의 발현의 유무가 원발성 폐암 환자의 생존율과 관련이 있음을 나타내었고, 특히 RB가 원발성 폐암의 예후에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 인자임을 나타내었다.

The crystal structures of $Cd_6-A$ evacuated at $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr and 750$^{\circ}$C (a=12.216(l) ${\AA}$), and of the product of its reaction with Rb vapor (a= 12.187(l) ${\AA}$), have been determined by single-crystal x-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Pm$\bar{3}$m at 21(l)$^{\circ}$C. Their structures were refined to the final error indices, $R_1$=0.055 and $R_2$=0.067 with 191 reflections, and $R_1$=0.066 and $R_2$=0.049 with 90 reflections, respectively, for which I>3${\sigma}$(I). In dehydrated $Cd_6-A$, six $Cd^{2+}$ ions are found at two different threefold-axis sites near six-oxygen ring centers. Four $Cd^{2+}$ ions are recessed 0.50 ${\AA}$ into the sodalite cavity from the (111) plane at O(3), and the other two extend 0.28 ${\AA}$ into the large cavity from this plane. Treatment at 250 $^{\circ}$C with 0.1 Torr of Rb vapor reduces all $Cd^{2+}$ ions to give $Rb_{13.5^-}$A. Rb species are found at three crystallographic sites: three $Rb^+$ ions lie at eight-oxygen-ring centers, filling that position, and ca. 10.5 $Rb^+$ ions lie on threefold axes, 8.0 in the large cavity and 2.5 in the sodalite cavity. In this structure, ca. 1.5 Rb species more than the 12 $Rb^+$ ions needed to balance the anionic charge of zeolite framework are found, indicating that sorption of $Rb^0$ has occurred. The occupancies observed can be most simply explained by two "unit cell" compositions, $Rb_{12^-}A{\cdot}Rb$ and $Rb_{12^-}A{\cdot}2Rb$, of approximately equal population. In sodalite cavities, $Rb_{12^-}A{\cdot}Rb$ would have a $(Rb_2)^+$ cluster and $Rb_{12^-}A{\cdot}2Rb$ would have a triangular $(Rb_3)^+$ cluster. Each of the atoms of these clusters must bind further through a six-oxygen ring to a large cavity $Rb^+$ to give $(Rb_4)^{3+}$ (linear) and $(Rb_6)^{4+}$ (trigonal). Other unit-cell compositions and other cationic cluster compositions such as $(Rb_8)^{n+}$ may exist.

본 연구는 과배란처리에 의한 수정란이식 시 우수한 수정란을 다량 확보하고 이식 후 수태율 향상을 위하여 수란우에 rbST처리가 수태율 및 progesterone 농도와 황체의 크기에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 조사하고자 실시하였다. 공란우는 Folltropin-V와 PGF$_2$$\alpha$를 이용하여 과배란처리를 유도하여 12시간 간격으로 2 straw씩 3회 인공수정을 실시하였다. 공란우와 수란우는 대조구와 rbST 처리구로 구분하였으며, rbST (500 mg)처리는 발정발현 후 미근부에 근육 주사하였다. 과배란처리된 공란우의 수정란채란은 수정 후 7∼8일째에 비외과적인 방법으로 실시하였다. 수정란이식 후 수태율은 rbST 처리구에서 대조구보다 유의적으로 높았다 (64.0 vs. 47.1%; p<0.05). 채취한 혈액의 progesterone 농도 분석과 황체의 단면적를 조사한 결과 progesterone 농도는 대조구와 rbST 처리구에서 6일 동안 차이가 없었지만, 6일 이후부터 차이가 나타났으며 황체크기 역시 rbST 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 높게 나타났다. 본 연구결과에서 rbST처리는 이식 후 수태율의 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 10 주 동안 건강한 20대 성인 남녀 14명을 대상으로 D-리보오스 함유 비율이 다른 설탕 (D-리보오스 5%, 10%, 14% 함유) 섭취가 혈당 반응과 GI에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 혈당 저감화 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 설탕과 D-리보오스함유 설탕의 혈당반응값을 비교하였을 때 D-리보오스 함유 설탕인 RB5, RB10, RB14 순으로 낮아졌으며 RB10, RB14는 설탕에 비해 유의적으로 낮은 혈당반응값을 보였다. 백설탕, RB5, RB10, RB14의 GI는 각각 67.39, 67.07, 47.57, 45.62로 설탕과 RB5는 중 GI 식품으로, RB10과 RB14는 저 GI 식품으로 분류되었으며, RB10, RB14의 GI는 설탕과 RB5의 GI에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다. 혈당 변화에 따른 Cmax를 보면 포도당 61.73 mg/dL에 비해 RB5, RB10, RB14가 각각 49.43 mg/dL, 37.25 mg/dL, 35.15 mg/dL로 유의적으로낮았으나, 설탕의 Cmax 58.18 mg/dL과 비교 시 RB10, RB14의 Cmax는 유의적으로 낮았으나, RB5와는 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 따라서 D-리보오스 함유 설탕의 혈당 상승 억제 효과는 D-리보오스를 5% 함유 시 보다는 D-리보오스를 10% 이상 함유할 때 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 D-리보오스를 10%, 14% 함유한 설탕의 GI값과 혈당 변화율이 유사하게 나타나고 있으므로 D-리보오스 14% 함유보다는 D-리보오스 10% 함유하는 것이 혈당 저감화 효과 및 비용적인 측면을 고려할 때 기능성 설탕의 비율로 더 적절할 것으로 사료된다.

Background: As a process of aging, skeletal muscle mass and function gradually decrease. It is reported that ginsenoside Rb1 and Rb2 play a role as AMP-activated protein kinase activator, resulting in regulating glucose homeostasis, and Rb1 reduces oxidative stress in aged skeletal muscles through activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt/Nrf2 pathway. We examined the effects of Rb1 and Rb2 on differentiation of the muscle stem cells and myotube formation. Methods: C2C12 myoblasts treated with Rb1 and/or Rb2 were differentiated and induced to myotube formation, followed by immunoblotting for myogenic marker proteins, such as myosin heavy chain, MyoD, and myogenin, or immunostaining for myosin heavy chain or immunoprecipitation analysis for heterodimerization of MyoD/E-proteins. Results: Rb1 and Rb2 enhanced myoblast differentiation through accelerating MyoD/E-protein heterodimerization and increased myotube hypertrophy, accompanied by activation of Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling. In addition, Rb1 and Rb2 induced the MyoD-mediated transdifferentiation of the rhabdomyosarcoma cells into myoblasts. Furthermore, co-treatment with Rb1 and Rb2 had synergistically enhanced myoblast differentiation through Akt activation. Conclusion: Rb1 and Rb2 upregulate myotube growth and myogenic differentiation through activating Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling and inducing myogenic conversion of fibroblasts. Thus, our first finding indicates that Rb1 and Rb2 have strong potential as a helpful remedy to prevent and treat muscle atrophy, such as age-related muscular dystrophy.

Purpose: To improve the quality of basic gluten-free rice bread composed of white rice flour, salt, sugar, yeast, skim milk powder, olive oil, and water, the effects of transglutaminase (TGase), whey protein (WP), propylene glycol alginate (PGA), and hydroxypropylmethylcelluose (HPMC) were investigated. Methods: TGase, WP, PGA, and HPMC were added to rice flour cumulatively. The pasting properties of rice flour blends as well as volume, shape, color value, textural properties and sensory evaluation of basic rice bread (RB1) RB1+TGase (RB2), RB1+TGase+WP (RB3), RB1+TGase+WP+PGA (RB4), and RB1+TGase+WP+PGA+HPMC (RB5) were compared. Results: Consistency of rice batter increased upon addition of TGase, WP and PGA, and RB3 and RB4 had higher specific volumes than others. PGA improved volume, crumb air cell uniformity, and resilience but lowered elasticity and moistness of RB. HPMC increased, hardness, moistness and softness, and slightly reduced volume. Conclusion: Therefore, it is suggested that hydrocolloids, PGA and HPMC may be necessary to improve volume, crumb structure, textural properties and overall eating quality of gluten-free rice bread.

본 연구는 2주간의 지구성 운동과 ginsenoside $Rb_1$이 쥐골격근의 AMPK insulin signaling($tAMPK{\alpha}$, $pAMPK{\alpha}$ $Thr^{172}$)과 PI3K insulin signaling pathway(pIRS-1 $Tyr^{612}$, PI3K $p^{85}$, pAkt $Ser^{473}$) 발현 및 glucose uptake에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 골격근내 glucose uptake에서는 비교집단과 비교하여 운동집단(59.4%), $Rb_1$집단(70.5%) $Rb_1/Ex$집단(58.6%)에서 유의하게 증가하였다. 2주간의 지구성 운동과 ginsenoside $Rb_1$이 AMPK insulin signaling pathway에 미치는 효과를 조사한 결과 비교집단에 비해 $AMPK{\alpha}$(Ex, 28.6%; $Rb_1$, 28.5%; $Rb_1/Ex$, 29.8%), $pAMPK{\alpha}$ $Thr^{172}$(Ex, 35.1%; $Rb_1$, 35.3%; $Rb_1/Ex$, 30.9%)의 발현이 유의하게 증가한 것을 알 수 있었다. 2주간의 지구성 운동과 ginsenoside $Rb_1$이 PI3K insulin signaling pathway에 미치는 효과를 알아본 결과 비교집단과 비교하여 IRS-1, PI3K $p^{85}$에서는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 pAkt $Ser^{473}$은 $Rb_1$ 집단에서 유의하게 증가한 것을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, ginsenoside $Rb_1$은 운동과 더불어 근육 세포내 AMPK의 활성화와 근육 내 glucose uptake를 증가시켜 제2형 당뇨병 예방과 치료에 효과가 있을 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 본 연구의 결과로 PI3K insulin signaling pathway의 항당뇨 효과는 설명하기는 부족하다고 판단되며 추후 본 연구의 결과를 기초로 ginsenoside $Rb_1$의 농도, 처치시간, 처치방법을 고려한 후속 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The 87Rb quadrupole coupling constants (e2qQ/h) and the asymmetry parameters (η) in RbMnCl3 were determined from a nonlinear least-squares fit to the 87Rb NMR powder spectra. The spectra were acquired in the temperature range from 260K to 330K. An important feature in this work is the determination of the quadrupole coupling constants and the asymmetry parameters for two physically nonequivalent Rb sites, Rb(I) and Rb(II), as a function of temperature. In addition, a structural phase transition at room temperature was conformed with the changes in the quadrupole coupling constant and the asymmetry parameter of Rb(II) site.
