The effects of Curcuma extract Solomon's seal (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum), and maltodextrose on acute hepatotoxicity in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were investigated. Acute hepatotoxicity was induced by 0.5 mL of carbon tetrachloride ($CCl_4$) per kg of SD rats, which was injected to them before administration of Curcuma extract or both Solomon's seal (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum) and maltodextrose mixtures. SD rats dose with Curcuma extract of 4 mg or 40 mg per kg per day significantly (p<0.05) reduced the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALKP) after 7 days compared to the controls dose with water. Treatments of Curcuma extract with 4 mg per kg per day in SD rats significantly (p<0.05) reduced aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALKP) to 78.0%, 82.6%, and 76.3% after 7 days compared to the controls, respectively. The levels of AST and ALT in SD rats dose with both Solomon's seal (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum) and maltodextrose mixtures or either alone had no significantly different (p>0.05) compared to the controls. Treatments of Curcuma extract combined with Solomon's seal (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum) and maltodextrose mixtures was 'liked more' to the sensory scores for odor and flayer compared to the controls. It was considered that Curcuma extract combined with both Solomon's seal (Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum) and maltodextrose mixtures could be used to functional food for enhancement of health and consumer acceptance.

고양이 말초혈액 다형핵백혈구(PMNC)의 유주성에 있어서 인삼 saponins(ginseng total ssponin(GTS), ginseng PT saponin(GfT) 및 ginseng PD saponin(GPD))의 면역증강 효과를 검토하였다. PMNC에 대한 유주성을 hoyden chamber 변법으로 측정한 결과, GTS, GPT, GPD는 PMNC에 대해 직접적인 유주활성을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 인삼 saponins을 첨가하여 배양한 PMNC 배양상충액의 경우게는 미약한 유주활성을 나타내었다. 그러나 GPf및 GPD를 첨가하여 배양한 말초혈액 단핵구세포(MNC)배양상충액에서는 PMNC의 유주활성이 현저하게 증가하였다. PMNC에 대해 유주활성이 인정된 GPI)로 배양한 MNC 배양상충액을 이용하여 checkerboard assay를 실시한 결과 배양상충액의 농도차에 의존하는 진의 유주활성임을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로부터 인삼 saponine 중 GPT 및 GPD가 고양 이 말초혈액 다형핵백혈구의 유주성을 중강시키는 효과가 있으며, 이것은 이들 saponins에 의해 활성화된 단핵구세포에서 분비되는 유주성인자에 의해 다형핵백혈구의 유주활성이 증 강되는 것으로 사료되었다.

To know the mechanism of biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) in the protection of chemically induced hepatotoxicity, the activity of glutamic pyruvic tran.saminase (GPT) and the level of lipid peroxidation metabolite (malondialdehyde, MDA) and ATP content in hepatocytes were determined in serum and primarily cultured hepatocytes. For in vibo study, rats were pretreated with DDB (300 mg/ kg, p.o.)for 7 days. DDB pretreatment efficiently reduced the elevation of serum GPT activity induced by carbon tetrachloride (1.6 ml/kg, s.c.) and acetaminophen administration (1500 mg/kg, i.p.). In ex vivo study, hepatocytes were isolated from the rats pretreated with DDB (300 mg/kg, p.o.)for 7 days and cultured for 12 hrs before inducing cytotoxicity with chemicals. The MDA formation and the GPT release induced by adriamycin $(1\times10^{-4} mg/ml)$ and cisplatin $(2\times10^{-4} mg/ml)$ were markedly decreased in the hepatocytes from the rats pretreated with DDB as compared to vehicle only. However, DDB pretreatment did not prevent the decrease of ATP contents of hepatocytes induced by cisplatin and adriamycin. In in vitro experiment, DDB was pretreated in primary cultured hepatocytes for 3 days. DDB enhanced the decreases of ATP contents induced by cisplatin and adriamycln. These results suggest that DDB may protect the hepatocytes from injury induced by hepatotoxlcants through inhibiting the lipid peroxidation.

Traditional profanity detection methods have limitations in identifying intentionally altered profanities. This paper introduces a new method based on Named Entity Recognition, a subfield of Natural Language Processing. We developed a profanity detection technique using sequence labeling, for which we constructed a dataset by labeling some profanities in Korean malicious comments and conducted experiments. Additionally, to enhance the model's performance, we augmented the dataset by labeling parts of a Korean hate speech dataset using one of the large language models, ChatGPT, and conducted training. During this process, we confirmed that filtering the dataset created by the large language model by humans alone could improve performance. This suggests that human oversight is still necessary in the dataset augmentation process.

Fraudulent companies or sellers strategically manipulate reviews to influence customers' purchase decisions; therefore, the reliability of reviews has become crucial for customer decision-making. Since customers increasingly rely on online reviews to search for more detailed information about products or services before purchasing, many researchers focus on detecting manipulated reviews. However, the main problem in detecting manipulated reviews is the difficulties with obtaining data with manipulated reviews to utilize machine learning techniques with sufficient data. Also, the number of manipulated reviews is insufficient compared with the number of non-manipulated reviews, so the class imbalance problem occurs. The class with fewer examples is under-represented and can hamper a model's accuracy, so machine learning methods suffer from the class imbalance problem and solving the class imbalance problem is important to build an accurate model for detecting manipulated reviews. Thus, we propose an OpenAI-based reviews generation model to solve the manipulated reviews imbalance problem, thereby enhancing the accuracy of manipulated reviews detection. In this research, we applied the novel autoregressive language model - GPT-3 to generate reviews based on manipulated reviews. Moreover, we found that applying GPT-3 model for oversampling manipulated reviews can recover a satisfactory portion of performance losses and shows better performance in classification (logit, decision tree, neural networks) than traditional oversampling models such as random oversampling and SMOTE.
