배 경 :종양 특이 항원인 MAGE 유전자는 여러 종류의 암조직에서 발현되지만 정상조직에서는 고환의 생식 세포를 제외하고는 발현이 없다. 본 연구에서는 MAGE 유전자의 암 특이적 발현을 폐암의 진단에 활용할 수 있는지를 유도객담을 이용하여 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 :조직학적으로 폐암으로 진단된 환자 30명, 대조군으로 기타 폐질환 환자 14명에서 얻은 유도객담을 3cc의 보존제(guanidinium isothiocyanate, Triton X-100)와 잘 섞어 냉장보관 후 당일 MAGE A 1-6를 동시에 발견할 수 있도록 고안된 2종류의 primer(MAGE common primer C1/C2, C3/C4)를 이용하여 nested PT PCR를 실시하여 MAGE 유전자의 발현 유무를 조사하였다. 결 과 : MAGE common primer를 이용한 nested RT-PCR에서 폐암환자 30 명 중 24명 (80%)에서 MAGE가 양성으로 발현되었고 대조군에서는 전례에서 발견되지 않았다(p=0.001). 편평세포암 17례 중 13례(76.5%), 선암 9례 중 7례 (77.8%)에서 소세포암은 4례에서 모두 MAGE 양성이었으며 각 군간에 발현율의 차이는 없었다(p=0.56). MAGE양성인 환자 24명 중 약 반수인 11 명에서는 기관지 내시경검사에서 육안적으로 종양 병변이 발견되지 않는 경우였다. 결 론 : 유도객담에서 MAGE 유전자는 암 환자에서 선택적으로 높은 빈도의 발현을 보이는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로 객담을 이용한 MAGE 검사법이 폐암의 검색, 조기진단 그리고 치료 후 경과 관찰에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Statement of problem. The importance of fixture design and surface treatment. Purpose. The clinical success of dental in plants is affected by many factors such like as degree of osseointegration, the effective load dispersion for the prostheses, and a lot of attempts have been made to overcome the difficulties. In this study, efforts were made to find the possibility of clinical acceptance of the dental implants of newly designed surface and resorbable blast media surcace. Materials and methods. In this study, two groups of custom-made, screw-shaped implants were prepared. The first with the consisting of Branemark clone design and the other with the new design. These implants were divided into four groups according to the kinds of surface treatment. Four implants($AVANA^{(R)}$, Osstem, Busan, Korea)of each group were installed in twenty rabbits. Group A was consisted of Branemark done implant left as machined, Group B with Branemark clone implants with RBM(Resorbable blast media) surface, Group C with newly designed implants left as machined and Group D with newly designed implants with RBM surface. One of the twenty rabbits died from inflammation and the observation was made for six weeks. Specimens from four groups were observed using scanning electron microscopy with 40, 100, 1000 magnification power and microsurface structures were measured by white-light scanning interferometry for three dimensional surface roughness measurements(Accura $2000^{(R)}$, Intek-Plus, Korea.). Removal torque was measured in 17 rabbits using digital torque gauge(MGT 12R, Mark-10 corp., NY, U.S.A.) immediately after the sacrifice and two rabbits were used for the histologic preparation(EXAKT $310^{(R)}$, Heraeus Kulzer, wehrheim, Germany) of specimens and observed under light microscope. Resonance frequency measurement($Osstell^{(R)}$) was taken with the 19 rabbits at the beginning of the implant fixation and immediately after the sacrifice. Results. Following results were taken from the experiment. 1. The surface of the RBM implants as seen with SEM had rough and irregular pattern with reticular formation compared to that of fumed specimens showing different surface topographies. 2. The newly designed implant with RBM surface had high removal torque value among four groups with no statistical significance. The average removal torque was $49.95{\pm}6.70Ncm$ in Group A, $51.15{\pm}4.40Ncm$ in Group B, $50.78{\pm}9.37Ncm$ in Group C, $51.09{\pm}4.69Ncm$ in Group D. 3. The RFA values were $70.8{\pm}4.3Hz$ in Group A, $71.8{\pm}3.1Hz$ in Group B, $70.9{\pm}2.5Hz$, $72.7{\pm}2.5Hz$ in Group D. Higher values were noted in the groups which had surface treatment compared to the untreated groups with no statistical significance. 4. The results from the histomorphometric evaluation showed a mean percentage of bone-to-implant contact of $45{\pm}0.5%$ in Group A, $55{\pm}3%$ in Group B, $49.5{\pm}0.5%$ in Group C, and $55{\pm}3%$ in Group D. Quite amount of newly formed bone were observed at the surface RBM-treated implants in bone marrow space.
