To establish a cultivation method of Petalonia fascia, seeds and seedlings cultures and growth tests were performed at the Daeri aquafarm in Haeui, Shinan, Jeollanamdo, Korea. Gametes were easily released from the mature plurilocular sporangia. They developed to crustose discoidal stolons and grew to filamentous and discoidal stolons. The indoor seeding was performed by using the 100-150 ${\mu}m$long fragments of stolons on Porphyra nets and the erect thalli developed from the cuttings when the seawater temperatures were 10-15$^{\circ}C$. In the experimental cultivation in the sea, 1-2mm long plantlets were found after 15 days of cultivation; after two months thalli grew to their maximal size of 215-355 mm long blades; after three months the length of thalli began to decrease due to distal disintegration and the plant color changed to yellow and epiphytic diatoms were attached on the thalli, which deteriorated the quality of products. The cultivation of P. fascia by the regeneration of filamentous-discoidal complexes was carried out successfully for the first time in Korea.

Global gene expression profile was analyzed by microarray analysis of rat liver RNA after acute acetaminophen (APAP) administration. A single dose of 1g/kg body weight of APAP was given orally, and the liver samples were obtained after 24, 48 h, and 2 weeks. Histopathologic and biochemical studies enabled the classification of the APAP effect into injury (24 and 48 h) and regeneration (2 weeks) stages. The expression levels of 4900 clones on a custom rat gene microarray were analyzed and 484 clones were differentially expressed with more than a 1.625-fold difference(which equals 0.7 in log2 scale) at one or more time points. Two hundred ninety seven clones were classified as injury-specific clones, while 149 clones as regeneration-specific ones. Characteristic gene expression profiles could be associated with APAP-induced gene expression changes in lipid metabolism, stress response, and protein metabolism. We established a global gene expression profile utilizing microarray analysis in rat liver upon acute APAP administration with a full chronological profile that not only covers injury stage but also later point of regeneration stage.

Glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase from E. coli K12 was used to convert uridine-5'-triphosphate and glucose-1-phosphate to UDP-D-glucose. The conversion was efficient and completed within 5 minutes under the employed conditions. In addition, thymidine-5'-monophosphate kinase and acetate kinase were proven to be non-specific, converting udridine-5'-monophosphate to uridine-5'-triphosphate with 55% conversion after 6 h, which was much slower than the production of TTP under the same conditions (complete conversion within one hour). Since these two reactions could proceed under the same conditions, a one-pot synthesis of UDP-D-glucose with ATP regeneration was designed from easily available starting materials, and conversion up to 40% by HPLC peak integration was achieved given a reaction time of 4 h.

The purpose of this study was to compare clinical availability of fibrin adhesive technique with microneural suture technique. We applicated fibrin adhesive technique and microneural suture technique on cut sciatic nerve in rat and used to Compound muscle action potential of rat thigh muscle compartment and histologic finding for comparision of clinical availability. The results were as following. 1. Using latency and amplitude in Compound muscle action potential test, we compared microneural suture technique with fibrin adhesive technique for nerve regeneration effect. the means was slightly different between two method. but there's no statistically significant differences. 2. Histologic finding was similar in microneural suture technique and fibrin adhesive technique for regeneration of axon and myelin sheath in destruction site after nerve anastomosis. These results showed that the efficacy of fibrin adhesive technique was similar to that of conventional microneural suture technique. Moreover, fibrin adhesive technique is decreased operating time and imporved of incapability of accessment in conventional suture technique. Therefore this technique is a useful method to nerve anastomosis in nerve enervation and neurotransplantation.

Inter-specific hybridization between Pleurotus pulmonarius and P. florida was attempted through PEG-induced protoplast fusion to select a fusant. The protocol for protoplast release, regeneration and fusion in these two Pleurotus species was standardized using the variables controlling the process. The mixture of mycolytic enzymes, i.e. commercial cellulase, crude chitinase and pectinase, KCl (0.6 M) as osmotic stabilizer, pH 6 of the phosphate buffer and an incubation time of 3 hours resulted in the maximum release of protoplasts from 3-day-old mycelia of P. florida ($5.3{\sim}5.75{\times}10^{7}$ protoplasts/g) and P. pulmonarius ($5.6{\sim}6{\times}10^{7}$ protoplasts/g). The isolated protoplasts of P. florida regenerated mycelium with 3.3% regeneration efficiency while P. pulmonarius showed 4.1% efficiency of regeneration. Polyethyleneglycol (PEG)-induced fusion of protoplasts of these two species resulted in 0.28% fusion frequency. The fusant produced fruiting bodies on paddy straw but required a lower temperature of crop running ($24{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) than its parents which could fruit at $28{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The stable fusant strain was selected by testing for the selected biochemical markers i.e. Carbendazim tolerance and utilization of the lignin degradation product, vanillin.

The optimal conditions for the production and regeneration of the protoplasts from Lentinula edodes were studied. Protoplast formation from the mycelia of L. edodes which were cultured in liquid medium showed a significantly high yield compared with that of the mycelia which were cultured on cellophane covered agar media. A mixture of Novozyme 234 (15 mg/ml) and Cellulase Onozuka R10 (10 mg/ml) in 0.6 M mannitol (pH 4) was optimal lytic enzyme for the protoplast release. The optimal incubation time and mycelia age were 3.5-4 hours at $30^{\circ}C$ and 6-8 days, respectively. Regeneration frequency was 0.18% plated onto a medium containing 0.6 M sucrose, and 0.08% plated onto a medium containing mannitol. But hardly any regeneration was observed in the media containing NaCl, KCl, or $MgSO_{4}$ More than 90% of the protoplasts contained nuclei and the nucleus number per protoplast was 1.1. The DNA content per nucleus was 5.1 pg. The diameter of the protoplast was $3-5{\mu}m$ and it had a well defined cell structure.

Several methods have been used for regeneration of tissue lost by periodontal disease. Subepithelial connective tissue graft technique, one of the technniques of mucogingival surgery, is used for the regeneration in esthetic problems such as recession, and denuded root coverage. This study is performed to evaluate the healing process and the regeneration and reattachment of periodontal tissue, including the reconstruction of junctional epithelium, and connective tissue. Alveolar defects in five adult dogs were treated with periodontal surgery and were attained by removing the marginal alveolar bone by $4{\time}3mm$ from CEJ in the labial side of incisors, and root surfaces were planed. The experimental sites were divided into two groups as follows. 1. root planing alone(control group) 2. with connective tissue graft (Experimental Group) In the two groups flaps were positioned and sutured tightly, the healing processes were observed and were histologically compared with each other after 2days, 4days, 1week, 2weeks, 4weeks. The results were obtained as follows : 1. In the two groups blood clots were observed as early as 2 and 4 days, and were resorbed at 1 week. 2. In the two groups moderate inflammation was observed as early as 2 and 4 days, decreased at 1 and 2 weeks, and disappeared at 4 weeks. 3. Junctional Epithelium migration was more significant in the control group, and was restrained by graft materials in the experimental group. 4. Features of connective tissue fiber attachment partially showed the parallel pattern in the two groups from 2 weeks, and entirely from 4weeks. 5. Anastomosis, between graft and connective tissue, appeared from 4 days in the experimental group and the border between them was not discriminated at 4weeks.

Purpose: There is no consensus regarding the relationship between the width of keratinized mucosa and the health of periimplant tissues, but clinicians prefer to provide enough keratinized mucosa around dental implants for long-term implant maintenance. An apically positioned flap during second stage implant surgery is the chosen method of widening the keratinized zone in simple procedures. However, the routine suture techniques used with this method tend to apply tension over the provisional abutments and decrease pre-existing keratinized mucosa. To overcome this shortcoming, a pre-fabricated implant-retained stent was designed to apply vertical pressure on the labial flap and stabilize it in a bucco-apical direction to create a wide keratinized mucous zone. Methods: During second stage implant surgery, an apically displaced, partial thickness flap with a lingualized incision was retracted. A pre-fabricated stent was clipped over the abutments after connecting to the provisional abutment. Vertical pressure was applied to displace the labial flap. No suture was required and the stent was removed after 10 days. Results: A clinically relevant amount of keratinized mucosa was achieved around the dental implants. Buccally displaced keratinized mucosa was firmly attached to the underlying periosteum. A slight shrinkage of the keratinized zone was noted after the healing period in one patient, but no discomfort during oral hygiene was reported. Clinically healthy gingiva with enough keratinized mucosa was achieved in both patients. Conclusions: The proposed technique is a simple and time-effective technique for preserving and providing keratinized tissue around dental implants.

This mouse calvarial defected model is frequently used for new scaffold development in the bone regeneration. Most experiments are carried out in this way by measuring the bone regeneration of mouse calvaria defected area. As a next step, hematoxylin and eosin staining is analyzed by sacrificing mice On the other hand, the quantitative analysis for bone regeneration is carried out by micro computed tomography. However, there are several drawbacks with the micro computed tomography. That is, it takes a long time and it is quite expensive for bone regeneration quantitative analysis. This study was performed by simply measuring the quantity of bone regeneration in mouse clavaira defected area on two-dimensional digital x-ray images via Image J. Consequentially, this experimental method by using J program might help bio-technologist researcher regarding new bone regeneration by comparing the quantity of bone regeneration quickly and precisely as well.
