본 연구는 Hsp90 inhibitor 및 SIRT1 inhibitor의 병용처리가 항암제 다제내성(MDR) 인간 암세포의 증식 억제에 효과적임을 밝혔다. SIRT1 활성 억제가 Hsp90 inhibitor인 17-AAG의 세포 독성의 효과를 증강시켰으며, 이로 인해 Hsp90 inhibitors에 대한 내성을 극복시킬 수 있음을 인간 자궁암세포인 HeyA8의 MDR 변이주인 HeyA8- MDR 세포에서 확인하였다. SIRT1 inhibitor는 Hsp90 inhibitor에 의한 Hsp90 샤페론 기능 억제를 증강시키며, ubiquitin ligase CHIP의 발현 증강을 유발하여, Hsp90 client protein 인 mutant p53 (mut p53)의 분해를 촉진시킨다. Mut p53 의 발현 감소는 암세포의 Hsp90 inhibitor 내성 획득의 가장 중요한 원인으로 지적되는 heat shock factor 1 (HSF1)/heat shock proteins (Hsps)의 발현 억제와 관련됨을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 항암제 다제내성 세포에서 SIRT1 inhibitor에 의하여 Hsp90 inhibitor에 대한 감수성이 증강되는 분자적 기전임을 밝혔다. 그러므로, SIRT1 억제에 의한 mut p53/HSF1 발현 감소가 MDR 암세포의 Hsp90 inhibitors 내성 극복에 매우 유효함을 시사하는 결과를 얻었다.

We investigated the mechanism of contraction induced by S1P in esophageal smooth muscle cells. Western blot analysis demonstrated that $S1P_1$, $S1P_2$, $S1P_3$, and $S1P_5$ receptors existed in the cat esophagus. Only penetration of EDG-5 ($S1P_2$) antibody into permeabilized cells inhibited S1P-induced contraction. Pertussis toxin (PTX) also inhibited contraction, suggesting that it was mediated by $S1P_2$ receptors coupled to a PTXsensitive $G_i$ protein. Specific antibodies to $G_{i2}$, $G_q$ and $G_{\beta}$ inhibited contraction, implying that the S1P-induced contraction depends on PTX-insensitive $G_q$ and $G_{\beta}$ dimers as well as the PTX-sensitive $G_{i2}$. Contraction was not affected by the phospholipase $A_2$ inhibitor DEDA, or the PLD inhibitor ${\rho}$-chloromercuribenzoate, but it was abolished by the PLC inhibitor U73122. Incubation of permeabilized cells with $PLC{\beta}3$ antibody also inhibited contraction. Contraction involved the activation of a PKC pathway since it was affected by GF109203X and chelerythrine. Since $PKC{\varepsilon}$ antibody inhibited contraction, $PKC{\varepsilon}$ may be required. Preincubation of the muscle cells with the MEK inhibitor PD98059 blocked S1P-induced contraction, but the p38 MAP kinase inhibitor SB202190 did not. In addition, co-treatment of cells with GF 109203X and PD98059 did not have a synergistic effect, suggesting that these two kinases are involved in the same signaling pathway. Our data suggest that S1P-induced contraction in esophageal smooth muscle cells is mediated by $S1P_2$ receptors coupled to PTX-sensitive $G_{i2}$ proteins, and PTX-insensitive $G_q$ and $G_{\beta}$ proteins, and that the resulting activation of the $PLC{\beta}3$ and $PKC{\varepsilon}$ pathway leads to activation of a p44/p42 MAPK pathway.

대표적인 histone deacetylase inhibitor 저해제의 일종일 sodium butyrate에 의한 인체백혈병 U937세포의 증식 억제에 관한 기전 연구를 세포주기 조절 측면에서 조사하였다. MTT assay 및 flow cytometry 분석을 통하여 sodium butyrate의 처리 농도 증가에 따른 U937 세포의 증식억제는 세포주기 G1 arrest 및 apoptosis 유발에 의한 것임을 확인하였다. RT-PCR및 Western blotting 결과에서 sodium butrate에 의한 G1 arrest는 세포주기 G1기에서 S기로의 진입에 중요한 역할을 하는 cyclin D1, E, A, cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) 4 및 Cdk6발현의 저해와 p21 및 p27과 같은 Cdk inhibitor의 발현 증가와 연관성이 있었다. Sodium butyrate는 또한 retinoblastoma protein (pRB)및 p130 단백질의 인산화를 저해시켰으나, S기 진행에 중요한 전사조절인자인 E2F-1 및 E2F-4의 의 발현에는 큰 영향이 없었다. 그러나 sodium butyrate에 의한 pRB 및 p130단백질의 인산화 저해는 pRB와 E2F-1및 p130과 E2F-4와의 결합력을 증사시켰다. 본 연구의 결과는 U937세포의 증식억제에 pRB/p130 인산화 억제 및 Cdk inhibitors의 발현 증가가 중요한 역할을 하고있음을 보여주는 것으로, sodium butyrate의 항암기전 이해에 중요한 자료가 될 것이다.

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of mold inhibitor in the ration which had two different protein levels (18% and 12%) and two different particle sizes (80 or 40% of the particles in the ration less than 1.19 mm). The experimental diets with ave. 12.7% moisture which were treated at the level of 0.1% mold inhibitor were stored under 85% humidity and at $29{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 10 to 40 days. In experiment 1, after 40 days of storage the $CO_2$ production in the feed treated with mold inhibitor was higher (p < 0.01) than when 40% of the ration's panicle size was 1.19 mm. Aflatoxin production in the experimental diet with mold inhibitor was affected (p<0.05) by the levels of protein and the different particle size ranges after 40 days storage. The interaction of protein levels and particle size ranges on the anatoxin and $CO_2$ production was significant (p<0.05) at 40 days storage. In experiment 2, there was a decrease in total body weight gain and total feed intake observed in chicks fed the untreated diet of 18% protein with 40% of the particles in the ration less than 1.19 mm stored for 40 days. Feed conversion was depressed (p<0.05) in the chicks fed the untreated diets of both particle sizes. Particle size X types of feed interaction in feed conversion was significant (p<0.05).

The aim of the present research program was to construct an optimum fermentation system and to characterize the properties of cathepsin B inhibitor from Streptomyces chromofuscus SMF28. Glucose and casitone were proved to be good carbon source and nitrogen source, respectively. The production of inhibitor was high at lower concentration than 10 mM of inorganic phosphate. The optimum temperature and pH for the production of inhibitor were 30$\circ$C and pH 7, respectively. The production of inhibitor was related to mycelial growth and was affected by medium composition. The inhibitor in culture filtrate of S. chromofuscus SMF28 was purified by butanol extraction, silica gel chromatography, Amberlite IRC-50 (H$^{+}$ form) chromatography, preparative TLC, and preparative HPLC. From amino acid analysis and UV, IR, $^{1}$H-NMR spectroscopic analysis, the inhibitor was identified as a peptide containing valine and phenylalanine derivative.

Abnormal localization of tumor suppressor proteins is a common feature of renal cancer. Nuclear export of these tumor suppressor proteins is mediated by chromosome region maintenance-1 (CRM1). Here, we investigated the antitumor effects of a novel reversible inhibitor of CRM1 on renal cancer cells. We found that S109 inhibits the CRM1-mediated nuclear export of RanBP1 and reduces protein levels of CRM1. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of S109 on CRM1 is reversible. Our data demonstrated that S109 significantly inhibits proliferation and colony formation of renal cancer cells. Cell cycle assay showed that S109 induced G1-phase arrest, followed by the reduction of Cyclin D1 and increased expression of p53 and p21. We also found that S109 induces nuclear accumulation of tumor suppressor proteins, Foxo1 and p27. Most importantly, mutation of CRM1 at Cys528 position abolished the effects of S109. Taken together, our results indicate that CRM1 is a therapeutic target in renal cancer and the novel reversible CRM1 inhibitor S109 can act as a promising candidate for renal cancer therapy.

In the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases such as allergies, S100A8 acts as an important molecule and T lymphocytes are essential cytokine-releasing cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of S100A8 on release of cytokines, specifically MCP-1, IL-6, and IL-8 in T cells, and its associated signaling mechanism. S100A8 increased secretion of MCP-1, IL-6, and IL-8 in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Elevated secretion of MCP-1, IL-6, and IL-8 due to S100A8 was inhibited by the TLR4 inhibitor TLR4i, the PI3K inhibitor LY294002, the $PKC{\delta}$ inhibitor rottlerin, the ERK inhibitor PD98059, the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB202190, the JNK inhibitor SP600125, and the NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitor BAY-11-7085. S100A8 induced phosphorylation of ERK, p38 MAPK, and JNK in a time-dependent manner, and activation was suppressed by TLR4i, LY294002, and rottlerin. S100A8 induced NF-${\kappa}B$ activation by $I{\kappa}-B{\alpha}$ degradation, and NF-${\kappa}B$ activity was suppressed by PD98059, SB202190, and SP600125. These results indicate that S100A8 induces cytokine release via TLR4. Study of PI3K, $PKC{\delta}$, MAPKs, and NF-${\kappa}B$ will contribute to elucidation of the S100A8-invovled mechanism.

The inhibitive action of thiadiazolopyrimidines on mild steel in 1 M $H_{2}SO_{4}$ has been studied using weight loss, gasometric studies and electrochemical polarization and AC impedance measurements. The effect of temperature on the corrosion behaviour of mild steel in 1 M $H_{2}SO_{4}$ with optimum concentration of inhibitors was studied in the temperature ranging from 313-333K The adsorption of the inhibitor on the surface of mild steel was found to be exothermic, spontaneous and followed the mechanism of physisorption. The adsorption of these compounds on mild steel surface was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The protective film formed on the surface of mild steel by the adsorption of inhibitor in 1 M $H_{2}SO_{4}$ solution was confirmed by optical microscopic technique. Synergistic effect of halide ions on mild steel in 1 M $H_{2}SO_{4}$ was studied by weight loss technique.
