본 연구에서는 충북대학교 조류질병학실험실에 2009년 한 해동안 의뢰된 산란계의 혈청 검사 결과에 대해 분석하여, 산란계의 주요 질병에 대한 국내 산란계의 면역 상태 및 질병 감염 실태를 파악하였다. 검사 대상 질병은 AI, ND, IB, aMPV, EDS'76, IBD, CIA이었으며, 산란계의 성장 단계에 따라 주령 구간을 나누어 분석하였다. AI, ND, IB는 모체 이행항체가 감소한 후 산란 기간에 걸쳐 혈청 역가가 안정적으로 형성되는 특징을 보여 주었다. 그러나 AI는 모든 주령 구간에 걸쳐 음성인 계군이 존재하는 반면, ND는 3~10 주령 구간의 한 음성 계군을 제외하고 전 주령에 걸쳐 100%의 계군 양성률을 보이고, ND의 평균 GMT가 AI의 평균 GMT보다 높았는데, 이는 두 질병의 백신 정책의 차이에 기인한 것이다. IB의 산란기의 안정적인 역가는 백신 역가에 산란기 전반에 걸친 야외 감염 개체의 존재로 인한 야외 감염 역가가 더해진 것으로 판단된다. aMPV는 2009년에 백신을 실시하지 않았던 질병이므로, 양성 역가를 통해 aMPV의 야외 감염을 추적할 수 있었으며, GMT 변화 및 계군 내양성 개체율의 증가 경향을 통해 일령이 증가할수록 야외 감염률이 증가하는 양상을 파악할 수 있었다. EDS'76은 산란 기간에 걸쳐 높은 양성률과 낮은 변이계수를 보여 야외 감염이 아닌 백신에 의한 역가 형성이 대부분임을 알 수 있었다. IBD의 모체이행항체는 높은 수준으로 이행되는 것을 확인하였으며, CIA는 백신을 적용하지 않은 계군에서 양성과 음성 계군이 모두 존재하였으며, 그 차이는 차단 방역에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 국내 산란계에서의 혈청 역가 분포를 파악하는데 많은 정보를 얻을수 있었으나, 향후 지속적인 야외 계군의 혈청학적 모니터링이 되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the growth rate and hematological changes of the rats when supplemented with the powdered tubers of chufa(Cyperus esculentus) for four weeks. Nutritional composition of the powdered tuber of chufa is crude lipid(22.3%), crude protein(7.0%), crude fiber(8.8%), ash(5.1%), nitrogen free extract(48.9%) and water(7.9%), respectively. Sixteen Sprague-Dawley male $rats(173.1\pm3.8$ g) were randomly divided into two groups, control group and chufa group. Rats in control group were fed with American Institute of Nutrition(AIN)-76 diet and rats in chufa group were fed with modified AIN-76 diet contained the powdered tubers of chufa at the proportion of 26% of total diet in order to substitute the oil content of AIN-76 diet. Final body weight, gain of body weight and feed intake of rats in chufa group were larger than those of rats in control group significantly. But feeding efficiency of rats in chufa group was less than that of rats in control group significantly. All hematological values such as hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit and serological values such as glucose, total protein, albumin, AST, ALT, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglyceride were not significantly different between control and chufa group, respectively. Thus powdered tuber of chufa showed good tastefulness and did not provoke any adverse effect to the health indicators of rats. Therefore tuber of chufa would be used as new adequate feed resource for animals and possibly as suitable food resource for humans.

The acute toxicity of fthalide in rat was studied in vivo by the observations of the changes in hematogram, serological parameters, content of cytochrome p-450, activities of NADPH-cytochrom c reductase, glucose-6-phosphatase, and the contents of cholinesterase and carboxylesterase in liver. Fthabde is a practically non-toxic substance(LD50 is 3.86g/kg), but rats were intoxicated with fthabde at a oral dose of 100 mg/kg for 12 days. WBC were significantly decreased and activities of ALT and LDH, on the cotrary, the content of glucose in serum were slightly increased. Cytochrome p-450 and lipid peroxide in liver were significantly increased in the fthalide-intoxicated rats. The longer administration of fthalide showed further increase of carboxylesterase activity in liver and serum, but decrease of activities of glucose-6-phosphatase and cholinesterase in liver and serum. These results show that fthatide can induce the hepatocellular injury and neurotoxicity.

Purpose: This study is designed to analyse etiology and bone pattern at the first visit using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to evaluate the treatment outcome of conservative treatment in temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: One hundred condyles in 50 subjects with RA were chosen among the patients who presented to the Department of Oral Medicine of Pusan National University Dental Hospital, diagnosed as TMD. Condylar bone changes were classified by normal, erosive bony change, proliferative bony change and combined group (erosive bony change+proliferative bony change). They were treated conservatively with physical therapy, medication, behavioral therapy and/or occlusal stabilizing splint therapy. After 3 months on average, patients were re-evaluated with regards to subjective symptoms and the clinical findings were investigated. Results: TMD patients with RA have behavioral contributing factors such as parafunctional habit. The results that analyse bone pattern at the first visit using CBCT proliferative bony changes group (32.6%) were more common than erosive bony changes group (15.2%). In comparison between unilateral and bilateral bony change in temporomandibular joint, the ratio showed no significant differences. After 3 months of conservative treatments, pain, noise, limitation of motion (LOM) were markedly improved regardless of occlusal splint therapy. However only LOM was significantly improved through occlusal splint therapy during 3 months. Conclusions: TMD patients with RA had similar behavioral contributing factors and characteristics of CBCT images shown in general TMD patients and also similar response to conservative treatment so it is difficult to differentiate. Therefore when TMD patients show symptoms corresponding to clinical diagnostic criteria of RA at the first visit, serological testing should be conducted and through this, early diagnosis and treatment of RA should be initiated.

국내 육계 농장에서 avian reovirus의 감염 여부를 확인하기 위한 ELISA 검사법을 이용한 혈청 검사와 바이러스 분리 및 2개 농장에서 분리된 바이러스를 SPF 닭에 공격 접종하여 병원성을 확인한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 1일령 육계 병아리에서 avian reovirus에 대한 모체이행 항체 역가 검사를 통하여 육용종계에서 avian reovirus에 대한 항체 보유 상태가 매우 다양하며, 이로 인해 후 대 병아리의 항체 수준도 매우 불균일하게 분포된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 2. 육계에서 avian reovirus에 대한 모체 이행 항체 역가는 14일령 전에 대부분 소실되며, 그 이후 혈청 역가가 상승하는 것이 확인되어 국내 육계 농장에서도 avian reovirus가 감염이 되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각 농장의 감염 상황 및 계군의 면역 정도에 따라 혈청 역가가 다양하게 분포함을 알 수 있었다. 3. RT-PCR을 이용한 avian reovirus 확인 결과, 1일령 병아리에서 모두 음성으로 확인되었고, 14일령과 출하 일령에 2개 농장에서 양성으로 나타나, 국내 육계 농장에서 avian reovirus 감염은 주로 14일령 이후에 나타나는 것으로 판단되었다. 4. 본 실험에서 실시한 ELISA, RT-PCR, 전자현미경 관찰을 통하여 국내 육계 농가에서의 ARV 감염과 존재를 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 검사 방법간의 결과가 불일치한 것은 avian reovirus의 분리가 감염된 농장의 상황, 닭의 감염 일령 및 분리 장기에 따라 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 5. 9일령 SPF 부화란 접종을 통해 2개의 육계 농장에서 avian reovirus가 분리되었고 분리된 바이러스를 3주령 SPF 닭에 공격 접종 시 혈청 역가의 상승 및 주요 조직에서 바이러스가 확인되었으나, 특이적인 임상 증상은 관찰되지 않았다. 이는 닭의 연령에 따라 avian reovirus에 저항성이 있는 것으로 여겨지며 ARV의 조직 내 잔존은 감염 장기에 따라 다르다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Tannic acid(0.5mg/ml , 1.0mg/ml, 2.0mg/ml)와 카드뮴(20mg/kg)을 마우스에 경구투여한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1.Tannic acid와 카드뮴을 투여한 마우스의 증체량과 음수소비량에 변화가 있었으나, 카드뮴투여에 의한 변화는 tannic acid 투여에 의하여 감소되었다. 2. 카드뮴투여에 의하여 간장의 상대중량과 뇌 상대중량이 대조군에 비하여 유의한 변화가 있었으며, tannic acid 1.0mg/ml 투여군에서는 간장의 상대중량, 폐장의 상대중량, 흉선의 상대중량도 유의하게 변화하였다. (P<0.05). 3. Hemoglobin contents, packed cell volume, platelet count, neutrophill count 등의 혈액학적인 변화는 대조군에 비하여 카드뮴 투여군에서 유의한 변화가 인정되었다. 그러나 이러한 유의한 변화가 tannic acid를 동시 투여한 군에서는 나타나지 않았다. 4. 카드뮴을 투여한 군에서는 혈청학적 변화(ALT, AST, BUN와 creatinine)가 있었으나 tannic acid 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 mg/ml을 동시 투여한 군에서는 회복되는 경향이 나타났다. 위의 결과로 미루어 카드뮴 투여에 의한 독성이 tannic acid을 2.0mg/ml/day 이상 4주간 투여했을 때 경감효과가 나타날 수 있었다. 그러나, 카드뮴과 같은 중금속의 독성에 tannic acid가 어떻게 경감효과를 나타내는지에 대한 작용기전의 연구가 더 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The detection of Bordetella bronchiseptica which is supposed to be an agent of the infectious atrophic rhinitis of swine, is likely to receive more attention in the future as the pork industry comes to realize that eradication of this infection from breeding herds is a practical possibility. Experiments described here were carried out to establish the rapid plate agglutination test for the detection of the infectious atrophic rhinitis of swine in the field using the criteria of antigen preparation, effects on the antigenecity after storing of the antigen and reaction appearing time. Also, the agglutinabilities between the plate and tube method were compared and the degree of pathological lesions were recorded in relation to tube agglutination titers. Obtained results were as follows: 1. No differences were noted in the agglutinabilities on the plate agglutination test between the treatments in antigen preparation-formolized, merthiolate-killed and living organism. 2. The agglutinability of the antigens did not show any significant changes until 10 weeks of storage at 4 C; however, after 10 weeks of storage, non-specific reaction was observed with the HPCD control sera. 3. The results of the plate and tube agglutination tests were not comparable but the effective use of the plate method in Bordetella bronchiseptica eradication programs in pigs especially in the sow is stressed as a screening test.

This study aimed to determine whether troglitazone stimulates genes related to fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation, leading to modulation of white adipose tissue (WAT) metabolism in high fat diet-fed mice. Female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into two groups (n=10/group). After they received either a high fat diet or the same high fat diet supplemented with troglitazone for 4 weeks, the effects of troglitazone on gene expression and physiology of WAT were measured using Northern, histological and serological analyses. Administration of troglitazone induced the expression of genes involved in mitochondrial and peroxisomal fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation in mesenteric WAT. Troglitazone also significantly increased uncoupling protein 2 mRNA levels. The changes in WAT gene expression were accompanied by reductions in circulating levels of free fatty acids and triglycerides as well as glucose and insulin. Histological studies showed that troglitazone treatment decreased the average size of adipocytes in mesenteric WAT. These results suggest that troglitazone-stimulated WAT expression of genes associated with fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation regulates WAT metabolism of high fat diet-fed mice, contributing to improvement of insulin sensitivity.

Background : Bell's palsy(BP) is defined as an idiopathic peripheral facial paralysis of acute onset, accounting for more than 50% of all cases of facial paralysis. Different theories on the etiology of BP have been proposed. Herpes simplex virus-1(HSV) has been the most suspicious causative agent, but varicella zoster virus(VZV) also is suspected. Objectives : We evaluated the serological changes of IgG and IgM titer of HSV and VZV to know the causative agent of BP. Materials and Methods : Subjects consisted of 35 patients who developed acute idiopathic unilateral facial palsy(16 men and 19 women from 9 to 78 years old) within a week of onset. We took the serum of the acute and convalescent stages, respectively. Serum IgG and IgM titer of HSV and VZV were measured in acute and convalescent stages by EIA method. Results : Only the HSV IgG titer showed statistically significant elevation in the convalescent stage(p=0.0291). Others did not show any significant change between the acute and convalescent stage. Conclusion : We concluded that HSV may be related to the causative agent of BP.

Purpose: Choledochal cyst is a cystic dilatation of common bile duct. Although the etiology is presently uncertain, anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal union (APBDU) is thought to be a major etiology of choledochal cyst. In this study, we analyzed the clinical and anatomical characteristics and pathologies of patients diagnosed with choledochal cyst in a single institute for 25 years. Methods: A total of 113 patients, diagnosed with choledochal cyst and who received an operation in Severance Children's Hospital from January 1988 to May 2013, were included. Medical records were reviewed, including clinical and demographic data, surgical procedures. Abdominal ultrasonography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography, and intraoperative cholangiography were used as diagnostic tools for evaluation and classification of choledochal cyst and the presence of anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal union. Todani's classification, and relationship between APBDU and surgical pathology. Results: Among 113 patients, 77 patients (68.1%) presented symptoms such as hepatitis, pancreatitis and/or cholecystitis. Eighty three patients (73.5%) had APBDU, and 94 patients (83.2%) showed inflammatory pathologic changes. APBDU, pathologic inflammation, and serological abnormalities such as hepatitis or pancreatitis showed a statistically significant correlation to one another. Conclusion: APBDU is thought to be one of the etiologic factors of choledochal cyst. It is related to the inflammatory changes in bile duct that can lead to the cystic dilatation.
