1. Cooked soybean was fermented for about a week by Bacillus megatherium 88-3, D-28 and D-28a; and compared with the cooked soybean which was not fermented, this fermented soybean showed much increase in vitamin $B_{12}$ and $B_2$, while vitamin $B_1$ decreased. 2. In the process of fermenting the cooked soybean, Bacillus megatherium, 88-3 is the bacteria which produces brown pigment; and Bacillus megatherium D-28 and D-28a is the bacteria which produces yellow pigment. 3. In weight, fermented soybean-fed rat showed more increase than the unfermented soybean-fed rat. But the growth of the rat fed with Bacillus megatherium 88-3 fermented soybean was not good. Probably, this phenomenon came from the trouble in rat's metabolism by brown pigment. 4. In food efficiency, Bacillus megatherium D-28a is 4.3% lower than Bacillus megatherium B-938, but it is 17.l% higher than the unfermented cooked soybean. Bacillus megatherium 88-3, which is 47.1% lower in food efficiency than the unfermented cooked soybean, has been found "not good" in the growth of rat.th of rat.

The present study was conducted to investigate the structural changes in rat cornea. Sixty eyes from one-day-old uneyed rats, fourty eyes from 4-weeks-old rats, and foully eyes from 10-weeks-old adult rats were used. With the increase of age, the epithelial layer was thickened by the addition of new successive cellular layers. Then, the new-born rat's epithelial cells formed a pentagonal shape, and the quality of decidual cells showed a high electron-density, although the boundary between cells was distinctive. The newly produced cells showed a low electron-density so that there was the distinctive difference between light and darkness. In Bowman's layer, collagen fibrils demonstrate a regularly arranged structure along with the age. In stroma's layer, the density of keratocytes was decreased and thereby Progressively flattened during the development. The collagenous layer of the adult rats was more distinctive than that of the new-born rats in a form of parallel alignment running vertically and horizontally.

This study was conducted to develop the Korean traditional tea and investigate the effects of Shan-shu-yu, Gugiga, Ginseng, Younggi and coffee on the hematology of rat. Gugiga, Shan-shu-yu, Younggi and Ginseng tea were adimistrated 3g/day/rat with feeding, respectively. Coffee was adminstrated 1.8g/day/rat. The mixing ratio of mixed tea were 1:1 (w/w). According to the feeding days (10, 20, 30), enzyme activities and chemical components in serum and change in whole blood were determined. 1. The activities of s-GOT and s-GPT of rat administrated Shan-shu-yu, Young-gi, Gugiga, Ginseng and their mixed tea were increased at the normal ranges, and coffee and it's mixed tea were significantly increased other, group (p<0.05). 2. In coffee and it's mixture groups, the content of s-glucose and s-cholesterol were remarkably increased (p<0.05), but in others (except coffee additive group) were decreased than coffee and it's mixture groups. 3. In all groups (except coffee addivite groups), the range of WBC, RBC, Ht and Hb was 7.30-8.00 $({\times}10^3/mm^3)$, 8.18-9.00 ($({\times}10^6/mm^3)$, 50-60 (%) and 16.10-17.40 (g/d), respectively and in strict coffee group, the level of WBC, RBC, Ht and Hb was $8.90{\pm}0.40$, $8.10{\pm}0.37$, $49{\pm}0.38$ and $14.90{\pm}0.44$ (p<0.05), respectively.

This study has been undertaken to examine the effect of 3-methylcholanthrene (3MC) on rat uterine growth and to understand the mechanism of action of 3MC in rat uterus. After diethylstilbesterol(DES) or tamoxifen(TAM) or 3MC or DES plus TAM or DES plus 3MC was administered into immature female rats, uterine weight over corn oil-treated uteri. 3MC treatment had no effect on uterine weight but, DES stimulated uterine weight was inhibited by 3MC concomitant tratment. While TAM alone treatment showed slight increase in uterine wieght, inhibited uterine growth simulated by DES when it was adiministrated with DES condirect binding assay with $[^3H]$ estradiol and the relative binding affinities of 3MC and TAM were estimated by competetion assy. Estradiol tumed out to have high affinity for rat uterine estrogen receptor (kd = 0.4 nM). The relative binding affinities of TAM and 3MC were 1% and 4.7% that of DES for rat uterine estrogen receptor, respectively. 3MC was shown to have similar affinity for eat uterine estrogen receptor to that of TAM. Effects of DES 3MC and TAM administration in vivo on rat uterine estrogen recptor level were examined. It was confirmed that the estrogen, DES and antiestrogen, TAM decreased estrogen receptor levels from rat ulterus and also 3MC decreased rat uterine estrogen receptor level when rats were treated with DES, TAM and 3MC in vivo. Data indicates that 3MC acts as an antiestrogen mediated through estrogen receptor system.

Morphogenesis of rat spleen was studied by light and electron microscope from the fetal stage till the newborn or adult stages. The results indicate as follows: at the 14th day of gestation rat spleen, as an early form, consists of intercellular spaces and mesenchymal cells. And at this stage the spleen is in a premature state, then it appears its adult condition in structures after the 7th postnatal day. Erythropoiesis is shown to be an active process in rat spleen beginning about the 18th day of gestation, and once established the process continues at least till the 7th postnatal day. At the 20th day of gestation, there are splenic nodules, trabeculae, venous sinus, and granular leucocytes such as neutrophils and basophils in rat spleen. Lymphocytes appeared to be well differentiated at the 7th postnatal day and were present till the adult stage. While degenerating erythrocytes are phagocytosed by macrophages. In conclusion, rat spleen started to be appeared from the 14th day of gestation and erythropoiesis in rat spleen was carried out for about 10 days between prenatal and postnatal stage. Erythrophagocytosis was accomplished by macrophages and it is suggested that the proper functions of rat spleen set off from the 7 th postnatal day when its structures are similar to the adult's.

Papaverine administration produced significant increases in acetylcholinesterase activity in cerebral cortex and striatum of rat brain. Two related compounds, tetrahydropapaverine and tetrahydropapaveroline, also gave similar effects. However, their actions seem to be indirect because papaverine has no in vitro effect on the enzymatic activity.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) on toxification/detoxification metabolic pathway in primary cultured rat hepatocytes. We measured the activities of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450s) and UDP-glucuronyltransferase, sulfotransferase and glutathione-S-transferase in CSC-treated rat hepatocytes. CSC significantly increased the activities of hepatic CYP4501A1 and CYP4501A2 to 7.5 fold and 1.6 fold respectively, compared with control level. However, CSC did not affect the activities of conjugation enzymes. We a1so examined if treatment of CSC could change thc cytotoxicity of acetaminophen (AA) through modulation of metabolizing enzymes. In rat hepatocytes, pretreatment with CSC potentiated the cytotoxicity of AA. This result indicates that potentiation of AA toxicity by CSC pretreatment may be related to induction of CYP4501A1 and CYP4501A2.

In order to clarify mechanism of the formation of cinnamaldehyde (CNA) in incubation mixtures of tranylcypromine (TCP) with rat liver microsomes, the CNA formed under various incubation conditions were analyzed. For the purpose, HPLC method of the analysis of CNA was developed. The formation of CNA was found to be dependent on the incubation time and the amounts of microsomes added. In addition, exclusion of NADPH or NADP of NADPH-generating system in incubation mixtures resulted in the formation of markedly decreased amounts of CNA to 8.5 and 2.4%, respectively, relative to the amounts formed each in a standard system. The small amounts measured were comparable to those formed by incubation without microsomes or with boiled microsomes. The results clearly suggested that CNA is a metabolic product of TCP by rat liver microsomes though further studies are needed to suggest details of the steps to the formation of CNA from TCP and of the enzymatic entities involved in the formation of CNA.
