목 적: 보조생식술에서의 정자처리법으로서 인간 난포액을 이용한 swim-down 방법의 유용성을 확인해 보고자 하였다. 연구방법: 분당서울대학교병원 산부인과에서 불임평가 목적으로 정액검사를 시행할 때 정자무력증 (asthenozoospermia, sperm motility < 50%)을 보이는 12명의 남성을 대상으로 하였다. 이들에서 검사 후 남은 정액을 100% 인간 난포액을 이용한 swim-down법과 SpermGrad를 이용한 밀도차 분리법을 적용하여 각각 처리하고 컴퓨터 정액분석기를 이용하여 정액검사를 시행하였다. 결 과: 두 군 모두에서 운동성과 빠른 운동성 정자의 비율, VCL (curvilinear velocity), ALH (amplitude of lateral head displacement)치 및 과활동성 정자의 비율이 통계적으로 유의하게 상승하였고 LIN (mean linearity)치는 유의하게 감소하였다. 100% 인간 난포액을 이용한 swim-down법에서 정자의 운동성이 SpermGrad를 이용한 밀도차분리법에 비하여 유의하게 높게 나타났으며 ($81.2{\pm}4.7$ vs. $67.6{\pm}2.3$, p=0.02), 다른 변수들은 두 군에서 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론: 100% 인간 난포액을 이용한 swim-down법은 정자무력증을 보이는 경우 유용한 정자 처리법으로 사료된다.

Previous study showed that swimming improved obesity but was not through $PPAR{\alpha}$ activation in liver and skeletal muscle in high fat diet-fed female mice with functioning ovaries as an animal model of obese premenopausal women. Thus, this study was aimed at investigation of the effects of swimming on the promotion of health and its molecular mechanism in adipose tissue of high fat diet-fed female mice. Eight-week-old female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into two groups (a non-swim control group and a swim group, n=8/group). Mice in the swim group swam for 2 h daily for 6 weeks in water bath with temperature of $35{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. All the animals received high fat diet (45% kcal fat) for 6 weeks. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to elucidate the molecular mechanism. Female mice subjected to swimming had significantly decreased body weight gain and white adipose tissue mass compared with the female control mice. Histological studies illustrated that swimming decreases the hepatic lipid accumulation. As expected, swimming did not affect the expression of mRNA levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) ${\alpha}$ and $PPAR{\alpha}$ target genes responsible for mitochondrial fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation, such as carnitine palmitoyltransgerase-1 and medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase in the white adipose tissue. However, mice that underwent 6-weeks of swimming exercise had decreased the mRNA expression of lipogenic genes, such as sterol regulatory element-binding proteins-1C and fatty acid synthase in comparison to sedentary control mice, with decreased $PPAR{\gamma}$ target genes involved in adipocyte-specific marker genes, such as adipocyte fatty acid binding protein and leptin in the white adipose tissue. These results suggest that swimming can effectively prevent obesity induced by high fat diet-fed, in part through down-regulation of adipogenesis and lipogenesis in white adipose tissue of female obese mice. Moreover, these results suggest that swimming maybe contributing the promotion of health through regulation of adipogenesis and lipogenesis in overweight premenopausal women.

Vibrio septicemia,, resulting in high mortality, has been caused by Vibrio vulnificus. Ingestion of marine products or contact with sea water contaminated with Vibrio vulnificus can cause septicemia. Vibrio vulnificus has been detected world wide and west sea area of Korea, Kum river estuary in particular, showed high detection rate. Higher detection rate of Vibrio vulnificus were reported in the bottom deposit with low depth of water, low salinity, and high COD. Man with the liver disease can easily come down with Vibrio septicemia and the main source is the sliced raw fish dish. The preventive measure for this disease is to wash raw fish material thoroughly with tap water and handle in sanitary conditions. Washing with sea water is strictly prohibited . It may be necessary to forbid the small-scale businessmen from selling the sliced ray fish dish in the vicinity of seashore. Man with the liver disease of diabetes should not swim or consume the raw fish dish in the contaminated area during summer.
