본 연구에서는 우수한 아토피 완화능을 가진 유산균을 선별하기 위해 한국인 유아 분변으로부터 23종의 유산균을 분리하였다. 후보 균주들을 배양하여 열처리 된 세포와 상등액 농축물을 각각 얻었다. 우수 균주 선별은 마우스 비장세포를 이용하여 IL-4의 억제 및 IFN-${\gamma}$의 증가 정도를 확인하는 실험을 통해 진행되었다. 선별 실험 결과로 Lactobacillus rhamnosus IDCC 3201 (RH3201)을 OVA로 면역 반응을 유발시킨 BALB/c 마우스에 투여할 유산균으로 선정하였다. RH3201의 균체와 대사물을 경구 투여한 군에서는 유발군에 비해 혈중 IgE의 과다 생성이 억제된 것을 확인하였다. 그러한 알레르기 억제능은 type-1 T helper (Th1) 세포와 type-2 T helper (Th2) 세포의 싸이토카인 간의 균형을 향상시킴으로써 유도되었다. 따라서 RH3201의 균체와 배양물은 면역 조절을 통해 아토피 증상을 완화시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

연구배경: 결핵은 대식세포와 T 림프구가 주로 관여하는 세포성 면역에 의하여 발생되는 대표적인 질환이다. 특히 Th1 또는 Th2 림프구 가농에 의하여 이루어지는 면역반응의 결과에 따라 결핵균에 대한 감수성 또는 저항성이 결정된다. 본 연구는 치료실패 폐결핵환자의 말초혈액단핵구를 PPD 또는 수용성 TSP 항원으로 결핵의 보호면역과 관계가 있는 Th1 반응과 결핵의 감수성과 관계가 있다고 알려진 Th2 반응을 관찰하였다. 방법: 수용성 TSP 항원과 대조항원인 PPD 항원으로 건강인, 폐결핵으로 진단되어 단기치료지침에 의하여 균음 전화된 치료반응 환자 및 치료실패 환자의 말초혈액 단핵구를 대상으로 단핵구 증식반응과 Th1 반응 및 Th2 반응과 각각 관계가 있는 IFN-$\gamma$ 및 RANTES와 MCP-1 mRNA 발현 빈도를 역전사효소 중합효소연쇄반응으로 조사하였다. 결과: PPD 피부반응 양성 건강인 모두는 PPD 또는 TSP 항원에 의하여 자극지수 4 이상의 유의한 증식반응을 보였으나 PPD 음성 건강인 모두는 PPD 또는 TSP 항원에 의하여 자극지수 4 미만의 증식반응을 보였다. 치유된 환자는 80%의 증식반응을 보였으나 치료실패 환자는 PPD 에 의하여 30.8% 그리고 TSP 항원에 의하여 15.4% 만이 자극지수 4 이상의 유의한 증식반응을 보였다. 치유된 환자의 1FN-$\gamma$ mRNA 발현빈도는 90.0% 이었으나 치료실패 환자는 PPD 또는 TSP 항원에 의하여 23.1% 만이 유도되었다. PPD 양성 건강인의 말초혈액단핵구를 PPD, TSP 또는 PHA로 자극하면 RANTES가 모두 발현되었다. 치료실패 환자, PPD 피부반응 음성 및 치유된 환자를 PPD로 발현을 유도한 경우 각각 76.9%, 80.0%로 대상간에 차이가 없었다. 그러나 TSP 항원으로 유도하면 건강 대조군 및 치유된 환자에 비하여 치료실패 환자는 46.2%로 발현빈도가 유의하게 감소되었다. 또한 PHA로 자극한 경우에서도 치료실패 환자는 69.2%로 감소하여 IFN-$\gamma$ mRNA 발현율 감소 경향과 유사하였다. 치료실패 환자는 MCP-1의 발현빈도가 치유된 환자에 비하여 유의하게 증가되었다. 치료실패 환자에 있어서 PHA 자극의 53.8% 보다는 PPD 또는 TSP로 자극한 경우에 발현빈도가 각각 76.9%로 높았다. 그러나 PPD 양성 건강인 및 치유된 환자는 PPD 또는 TSP로 유도한 결과 40% 이었으며 PHA로 유도한 경우는 각각 80%와 90%로 결핵균 항원에서 낮은 발현 빈도를 보여 치료실패 환자와 상반되는 결과를 보였다. 결론: 치료실패 환자는 PPD 피부반응 양성 건강인 및 치유된 환자에 비하여 말초혈액단핵구의 증식능, 1FN-$\gamma$ 및 RANTES mRNA 발현빈도가 현저히 감소되어 Th1 반응이 억제되어 있었다. 반면에 MCP-1 mRNA의 발현빈도는 현저히 증가되어 Th2 반응의 증가로 결핵균 사균 능력이 치료실패 환자는 감소되어 있다고 생각된다.

We previously examined extracts, isolated from Scutellaria baicalensis (SB), chemical mediators, and IgE by mesenteric lymph node (MLN) lymphocytes in rats. The present study was to evaluate the effects of extracts of SB on the MLN lymphocytes function of mice given orally by 20 mg/kg for 2 weeks with dextran sulfate sodium (DS)-induced colitis. Results show that IgE levels in MLN lymphocytes was low, while IgA was high, in mice given SB compared to that fed water. Concentrations of $Inteferon-{\gamma}$ and interleukin (IL)-2 of T cells by concanavalin A treatment was significantly higher in the SB fed group than the normal group. Activation-induced IL-4 and IL-10 secretion was lower in SB fed mice compared control mice after DS-induced colitis. These results suggested that SB suppresses the inflammation in DS-induced colitis through the modulation of Th1/Th2 balance to down-regulate $Th_2$ response in MLN lymphocytes.

To examine the effects of alcohol consumption on body fluid restoration and fat mobilization following exercise induced dehydration, nine healthy collegiate men ($24{\pm}2yrs,\;177{\pm}5cm,\;72{\pm}8kg,\;10.5{\pm}2.3%$ body fat) underwent three experiments. In each experiment, subjects ran on a treadmill to reduce individual body mass to $2.2{\pm}0.1%$ and consumed one of three beverages containing 0, 4, or 8% alcohol over 60 min followed by 4 hr of resting recovery. They consumed approximately 150% of weight loss $(2053{\pm}204,\;2091{\pm}149,\;and\;1943{\pm}295mL)$ and content of alcohol was $9.9{\pm}1.0(0%),\;71.9{\pm}5.1(4%)$, and $132.2{\pm}20.1g$ (8% trial). Body weight, urine volume and samples, blood samples, and thirst sensation were measured five times; at baseline, immediately after exercise, and 0, 1st, and 4th hr of recovery. Blood alcohol concentration after ingestion was $0.0{\pm}0.0(0%),\;0.1{\pm}0.02(4%)$, and $0.2{\pm}0.03%$ (8% trial). No differences in blood sodium and potassium concentrations, and urine specific gravity were noticed over time periods and trials. Thirst sensation tended to be elevated in all trials immediately after exercises and urine output was elevated during the recovery. The magnitude of changes in these variables was proportional to the alcohol concentrations, but not statistically significant. While serum osmolality was not different among trials and time periods in 0 and 4% trials, it was higher during recovery than the baseline in the 8% trial (P<0.01). Triglycerides did not change throughout the time period and among trials. Free fatty acids were elevated after exercise in all trials and 4th hr of recovery in 0% (P<0.05). Subjects' net body fluid balance at 4th hr of recovery was negatively maintained and proportional to alcohol concentrations. Only 8% trials showed a significant reduction at 1st and 4th hr of recovery compared to 0 hr. The results suggested that diuretic effect of alcohol after moderate level of dehydration appeared dose dependent, but beverage containing alcohol up to 4% did not induce impaired rehydration than alcohol free drinks. Alcohol effects on fat mobilization during recovery appeared to be minimal and the mechanism is unclear.

The aim of this study is to find what architectural restoration and street-scaping conservation of early settlement in Virginia, which have processed on the style of 18th centuries. One of the settlements in Virginia was Williamsburg that located in the high land between Jamestown and Yorktown. In 1698, the capital of Virginia was moved from Jamestown for the safer environment. At that time they constructed the town like a small urban that had a straight-lined Duke Glocester Street, Georgian style buildings, and landscapes of 18th centuries. Before 1928 the village was flown into ruins, but Rector of the church, Dr. W.A.R. Goodwin, understood the value of reservation to restore the village as colonial architectural style that has an original figure. John Rockefeller Jr. has taken part in his restoration of colonial style of architecture and culture. This paper surveyed nine cases of buildings and srtreet-scape on Duke Glocester Street. Most of the buildings on the street have a proposition, balance, and equipment of Georgian architectural facade in 18th centuries. The conclusion has three points. First, the Williamsburg has been reserved as an early colonial settlement through the restoration of architecture and street-scape design. Second, main architectural style is a Georgian form that has a balance, proportion, and simplicity of facade. Also new buildings and additions of architecture have to keep 'Design Review Guideline of Colonial Williamsburg' in order to contribute the existing colonial buildings. Third, the main street-scape, Duke Glocester Street shows Georgian architecture and cultural life pattern with tradition.

Objectives : The root of Codonopsis pilosula (Fr.) Nannf. (Codonopsis Pilosulae Radix) has been traditionally used as a oriental medicine with an anti-thrombotic, antidiabetic, anticancer, and anti-gastric ulcer effects and immunological adjuvant. In this study, we investigated the effect of 70% ethanol extract of Codonopsis Pilosulae Radix (CPR-E) on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic responses in mice. Methods : Mice were sensitized (1, 8, and 15 days) with OVA and airway challenged(22, 24, 26, 28, and 30 days) to induced allergic responses. CPR-E extract at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg/body weight was orally administered from days 21 to 30 consecutively. The levels of allergic mediators such as histamine, OVA-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) E, and Th1/Th2 cytokines such as IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-4 were measured in the sera of mice by ELISA. The histological change of lung tissue was observed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Results : CPR-E extract significantly decreased the serum levels of histamine, OVA-specific IgE, and IL-4 compared with those of OVA control group, but significantly increased the serum level of IFN-${\gamma}$. Based on H&E staining, CPR-E extract inhibited the infiltration of inflammatory cells into lung tissues with histological changes. Conclusions : These results indicate that CPR-E extract has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic responses through regulating the cytokine balance, suggesting that the extract may be useful for the treatment of allergic inflammatory diseases such as bronchial asthma and allergic rhinitis.

These studies were performed to provide some basic informations for developing an automatic system in dairy farming cattle in order that the farmers may easily and automatically detect the maintenance of pregnancy and the fact of abortion of the pregnant cows and also to find out the diseased animals with fever. As a method of automatical detection of the maintenance of pregnancy or the fact of abortion, weighing the pregnant cows was conducted from one month-pregnancy to the term using a digital balance. From the first to the 3rd month of pregnancy the body weight of dairy cows was slowly increased (less than 2% per month), then, relatively high increase (3.4% -4.3% per month) from the fourth to the seventh month followed by decrease (3.3%) in the 8th month and very low increase (0.8-0.9%) from the 9th month to the term were shown, resulting in increase of 128.8 kg (25.05%) of body weight to be compared with the first weight. More than 107, increase of body weight to be compared with the first month-weight was denoted from the 61th month of pregnancy and more than 20% increase from the 7th or the 8th month of pregnancy as wells consequently it was presumed that detection of the maintenance of pregnancy is possible from the 4th or the 5th month of pregnancy. It was possible to diagnose a cow aborted at the 6th month by continual weighing the cow from the 1st month of pregnancy. The calved cows showed considerably higher decrease of body weight even in the third week after parturition (p<0.01)to be compared with the body weight near to the term (81.8-102.0 kg, 14-16% decrease). During the same period of 8months, the pregnant cows gained 127.4 kg (24.78% increase), whereas the non-pregnant cows gained 33.0 kg (0.71% increase) to be compared with the first weight showing considerably higher increase of body weight gain in the pregnant cows than the non-pregnant cows (p<0.01). The statistics of body temperatures of dairy cattle were collected from three clinics including the Teaching Hospital of Chonbuk University and the diseases were classified simply by the major symptoms manifested, denoting the highest temperature in respiratory disease ($39.8{\circ}C$) and the lowest in alimentary disease ($39.6{\circ} C$). These informations of body temperatures were expected to be of value for early and automatical detection of the diseased animals with fever when automatic machinery would be established. The results of periodic weighing the body weight of pregnant cows while milking were also expected to be of great use for the farmers to detect the maintenance of pregnancy and the fact of abortion when the automatic system is established in the near future.

This study was conducted to evaluate the nutritional status of elementary school lunch programs. The subjects of this study consisted of 170 elementary school students(male 51.8% : female 48.2%) in the 5th and 6th grades. The dietary intake of nutrients was assessed by the modified 24-hour recall method. The results are summarized as follows: the average body weight was 41.3$\pm$7.93kg for boys and 40.5$\pm$ 8.35kg for girls. The average height was 149.5$\pm$5.88cm for boys and 146.2$\pm$5.82cm for girls. The total daily energy and nutrient intake was below the RDA's except for the intake of niacin and ascorbic acid. School lunchs provided 31.5% of total energy intake ; 32.5% of carbohydrate intake, 31.9% of protein intake and 33.4% of fat intake. Therefore, school lunchs largely contributed to the nutritional balance of these children. The food habit score was poor for 40.6% of the subjects.
