  • The transgenic mice were produced by microinjection of human growth hormone gene fused with mouse metallothionein Ⅰ promoter. They were mated with momal mice by backcross or brother-sister mating. The reproduction efficiencies of female and male n the FO transgenic mice were 17.6%(3/17 mice) and 31.2%(5/16 mice), respectively, and were very lower than that in normal mice(85.7% and 100%, respectively). Interestingly, a few of female transgenic mice were fertile which was different from the previous reports. Of 6 fertile transgenic mice, 2 mice were identified as mosaic type by the reduced frequency of genetic transmission to successive generation below Mendelian levle and the enhanced copy numbers of transgene in progeny mice compared with the transgenic parent. In the group of F1, F2, F3 transgenic mice the reproduction efficiencies of males were gradually improved, whereas females were absolutely infertile. It was consequently shown that the transgenic mice expressing human growth hormone gene were frequently infertile, but the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of the fertile transgenic mice were normally passed on to the progeny through herm line. Therefore it must be considered wheter or not the products of foreign DNA introduced into animals will detrimentally affect their physiological aspects.

  • Since December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread rapidly, resulting in a pandemic. The virus enters host cells through angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane protease serine subtype 2 (TMPRSS2). These enzymes are widely expressed in reproductive organs; hence, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could also impact human reproduction. Current evidence suggests that sperm cells may provide an inadequate environment for the virus to penetrate and spread. Oocytes within antral follicles are surrounded by cumulus cells, which rarely express ACE2 and TMPRSS2. Thus, the possibility of transmission of the virus through sexual intercourse and assisted reproductive techniques seems unlikely. Early human embryos express coronavirus entry receptors and proteases, implying that human embryos are potentially vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 in the early stages of development. Data on the expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in the human endometrium are sparse. Moreover, it remains unclear whether SARS-CoV-2 directly affects the embryo and its implantation. A study of the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on pregnancy showed an increase in preterm delivery. Thus, vertical transmission of the virus from mother to fetus in the third trimester is possible, and further data on human reproduction are required to establish this possibility. Based on analyses of existing data, major organizations in this field have published guidelines on the treatment of infertility. Regarding these guidelines, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, reproductive treatment is crucial for the well-being of society and must be continued under suitable regulations and good standard laboratory practice protocols.

  • Reproductive biotechnology has developed rapidly and is now able to overcome many birth difficulties due to infertility or the transmission of genetic diseases. Here we introduce the next generation of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as mitochondrial replacement technique (MRT) or genetic correction in eggs with micromanipulation. Further, we suggest that the transmission of genetic information from somatic cells to subsequent generations without gametes should be useful for people who suffer from infertility or genetic diseases. Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can be converted into germ cells such as sperm or oocytes in the laboratory. Notably, germ cells derived from nuclear transfer embryonic stem cells (NT-ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) inherit the full parental genome. The most important issue in this technique is the generation of a haploid chromosome from diploid somatic cells. We hereby examine current science and limitations underpinning these important developments and provide recommendations for moving forward.

  • This research is focused on a continuous epidemic model of transmission of Plasmodium vivax malaria with a time delay. The model is represented as a system of ordinary differential equations with delay. There are two equilibria, which are the disease-free state and the endemic equilibrium, depending on the basic reproduction number, $R_0$, which is calculated and decreases with the time delay. Moreover, the disease-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable if $R_0<1$. If $R_0>1$, a unique endemic steady state exists and is locally stable. Furthermore, Hopf bifurcation is applied to determine the conditions for periodic solutions.

  • In this study, we propose a dynamic SEIQRV mathematical model and examine it to comprehend the dynamics of COVID-19 pandemic transmission in the Coimbatore district of Tamil Nadu. Positiveness and boundedness, which are the fundamental principles of this model, have been examined and found to be reliable. The reproduction number was calculated in order to predict whether the disease would spread further. Existing arrangements of infection-free, steady states are asymptotically stable both locally and globally when R0 < 1. The consistent state arrangements that are present in diseases are also locally steady when R0 < 1 and globally steady when R0 > 1. Finally, the numerical data confirms our theoretical study.

  • Purpose: As of July 31, there were 14,336 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in South Korea, including 301 deaths. Since the daily confirmed number of cases hit 909 on February 29, the spread of the disease had gradually decreased due to the active implementation of preventive control interventions, and the daily confirmed number had finally recorded a single digit on April 19. Since May, however, the disease has re-emerged and retaining after June. In order to eradicate the disease, it is necessary to suggest suitable forward preventive strategies by predicting future infectivity of the disease based on the cases so far. Therefore, in this study, we aim to evaluate the transmission potential of the disease in early phases by estimating basic reproduction number and assess the preventive control measures through effective reproduction number. Methods: We used publicly available cases and deaths data regarding COVID-19 in South Korea as of July 31. Using ensemble model integrated stochastic linear birth model and deterministic linear growth model, the basic reproduction number and the effective reproduction number were estimated. Results: Estimated basic reproduction number is 3.1 (95% CI: 3.0-3.2). Effective reproduction number was the highest with 7 on February 15, decreased as of April 20. Since then, the value is gradually increased to more than unity. Conclusion: Preventive policy such as wearing a mask and physical distancing campaigns in the early phase of the outbreak was fairly implemented. However, the infection potential increased due to weakening government policy on May 6. Our results suggest that it seems necessary to implement a stronger policy than the current level.

  • This study is to analyze and evaluate copyright protection environment in digital reproduction and transmission, find out problems involved. and suggest recommendations for improvement. Data was collected 50 libraries to which digital reproduction and transmission is permitted under the Copyright Act were surveyed to examine the present states of digitalization and the systems employed. Also, library users, sampled from 5 libraries carrying out all the 6 technical measures obliged by the Copyright Act, were surveyed to examine their use of digital materials and perception on the copyright. After reviewing descriptive statistics, frequency and cross-tabulation analysis were made. The results of the analysis are most of the libraries. except for the industry university libraries, have implemented digital library systems, but the introduction rate of both digital reproduction system and transmission system are high (68.0% and 84.0%. respectively), while that of copyright protection system was low (26.0%). 84.0% of the libraries surveyed digitalize the full text, but the Libraries have digital collection less than 5,000 items, and only 33.3% of them digitalize materials with securing the copyrights. Regulations on copyright protections are not obliged properly. and it appeared that not only users' perception and perception of copyright as well as their use of electronic books are relatively low.
