This study was performed to examine the general anesthetic efficacy of tiletamine-zolazepam, a mixture of phencyclidine-derived tiletamine and benzodiazepine-related zolazepam. The antagonistic activities of doxapram and yohimbine to the anesthetic effects of tiletamine-zolazepam were also studied. Thirty healthy mongrel dogs were divided into three groups (each of 10) twenty minutes after being anesthetized with tiletamine-zolazepam : T-Z-S group(tiletamine-zolazepam-saline), T-Z-D group (tiletamine -zolazepam-doxapram), T-Z-Y group (tiletamine-zolaz.pam-yohim bine). Various parameters wert evaluated in terms of the onset and recovery time of analgesia, respiration rates, hear rates, body temperature, electrocardiogram, blood chemistry, and lymphocyte blastogenesis. The results obtained through these experiment could be summarized as follows: 1. he anesthetic efficacy of tiletamine-zolazepam was considered desirable, with the onset time of anesthesia being as short as 0.23-0.24 minutes. 2. Both of the antagonistic effects of yohimbine and doxapram on the anesthesia induced by liletamine-zolazepan were evaluated statistically significant(p<0.05) as the recovery time was shortened from 39.3$\pm$4.9 min(T-Z-S group) to 25.3$\pm$2.9 nin(T-Z-Y group) and 29.9$\pm$8.8min(T-Z-D group), respectively. 3. Respiration rates were not changed by the treatments of both doxapram and yohimbine, with the only transient increase in the T-Z-D group. The changes in the respiration rate were not observed during the whole time course of the experiment. 4. Yohimbine(T-Z-Y group) increased the heart rate significantly from 30 minutes after the adminstration compared to the T-Z-S group and T-Z-D group (p<0.05). 5. The decreases in th, body temporature were observed from 30 minutes in the T-Z-S group(p<0.05) and 40 minutes in th, T-Z-D group(p<0.05), after the adminstration. On the other hand, there was no hypothermia in the T-Z-Y group. 6. In the all experimental groups of the T-Z-S, T-Z-D and T-Z-Y, there were no specific findings on the electrocardiograph incept slight shift to the tachycardia in all cases. 1. We could not find any differences in the blood chemistry between all experimental groups (T-Z-S, T-Z-D and T-Z-Y). 8. the inhibition of the lymphocyte blastogenesis shown in the T-Z-S with 3 hours decreasing and thereafter restoring to the normal values up to the point 5 hours were not occurred in the T-Z-D and T-Z-Y groups. With the above results, we could conclude that both doxapram and yohimbine can be clinically used as recovery agents towards anesthesia by tiletamine- zolazepam fi:on the efficacy point of view, but yohimbine is more recommendable in this case if considering the recovery time and lymphocyte blastogenesis.

이 기술 노트에서는 중간복잡도 지구시스템모델의 하나인 LOVECLIM의 1.3 버전의 특성과 설치 및 운영 방법을 살펴보았으며, 두 종류의 홀로세의 기후 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 기존 CMIP5/PMIP3실험결과와 비교, 분석하였다. 이 연구에서 수행된 홀로세 중기 평형기후실험과 홀로세 중기부터 현재까지의 점진적 기후변화 실험 결과를 CMIP5/PMIP3 실험 결과와 비교하여 살펴본 결과, 연직 3층의 준지균 근사 방정식을 사용하는 LOVECLIM의 대기모델은 지면대기 온도, 200 hPa 동서방향 바람, 800 hPa 남북방향 바람의 전구 분포의 공간상관도와 편차에서 CMIP5/PMIP3에 참여한 최신의 기후모델들에 비하여 상대적으로 낮은 대기장의 모의정확도를 보였지만, 전구 지면온도의 분포 및 변화, 대륙 연안 지역의 800 hPa 바람장, 200 hPa 동서방향 바람장 등은 최신의 기후모델과 유사한 모의 특성을 보였다. 특히 최근 6천년간의 장기 기후변화 실험은 단일 CPU 환경에서 약 4일 정도의 적분을 통해 수행되었음에도 CMIP5/PMIP3 기후모델들에서 모의된 두 시기의 지면온도의 주요한 차이를 잘 모의하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이렇듯 중간복잡도 지구시스템모델은 상대적으로 낮은 정확도로 인하여 범용적인 연구 도구로 활용되기에는 한계가 있지만, 고기후 등 특정 분야의 연구에서는 매우 유용한 연구 도구로 활용될 수 있다. 이러한 활용성은 중간복잡도 지구시스템모델을 이용한 여러 연구 결과들에서도 살펴볼 수 있으며, 이 기술 노트에서 소개된 LOVECLIM의 특성 및 설치 과정이 LOVECLIM을 이용한 다양한 국내 연구에 기여할 수 있길 기대한다.

가토 측뇌실내로 dopamine을 투여하면 항이뇨를 일으키고, 도파민 길항제 haloperidol은 소량에서는 항이뇨를, 대량에서는 이뇨와 Na 배설증가를 초래한다는 보고에 비추어, 본 연구에서는 중추를 통한 신장기능 조절에 관여하는 도파민 수용체의 역할을 구명코자, D-2 receptor agonist이고 D-1 antagonist인 bromocriptine(BRC)의 작용을 검토하였다. 측뇌실내로 BRC를 투여하면 20-600 ${\mu}g/kg$의 범위안에서 대략 용량에 비례하여 natriuresis와 이뇨가 나타났으나, 신혈류와 사구체 여과율은 증량에 따라 점차 감소하였다. 따라서 이뇨 및 Na 배설증가는 신세뇨관에서의 Na재흡수 감소에 의한 것임을 알수 있었다. 이러한 Na 배설증가는 $200{\mu}g/kg$에서 가장 현저하여 Na 배설분획은 약 10%에 달하였다. 그러나 $600{\mu}g/kg$ 에서는 일시적인 현저한 혈압상승에 따르는 급격한 감소로 인하여 일시적 폐뇨가 선행한 다음 이뇨 작용이 나타났다. BRC의 정맥내 투여시에는 전신혈압 하강에 따르는 신혈류역학의 감소와 아울러 항이뇨가 나타났으며, 이는 측피실내로 투여한 BRC의 작용은 전신순환내로 유입되어 초래될 수도 있는 직접신장작용에 기인한것이 아니고 중추를 통한 것임을 시사하였다. Dopamine 150 ${\mu}g/kg$을 측뇌실내로 투여한 후에도 BRC 200 ${\mu}g/kg$은 작용을 나타낼 수 있으나, dopamine 500 ${\mu}g/kg$에 의해서는 BRC의 작용이 소실 되었다. 24 시간전에 1 mg/kg의 reserpine으로 처리한 가토에서는 200 ${\mu}g/kg$ BRC의 작용이 오히려 더 빠르고 강화되었다. 일측신장 신경을 제거한 표본에서는, BRC투여로 대조신은 항이뇨를 나타냈으나 실험신(탈신경측)은 심한 이뇨와 Na배설 증가를 일으켰다. 이상의 실험결과는, 측뇌실내 BRC는 natriuretic factor를 유리시킴과 동시에 교감신경 긴장도를 증가시키는 것을 시사하였으며, 또한 가토 신장기능의 중추 도파민계를 통한 조절에 있어서 여러 도파민 수용체가 각각 다른 기능을 하고 있음을 시사하였다.

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan on growth performance, immunity and endocrine responses of weanling piglets. One hundred and eighty weanling piglets (Landrace$\times$Large White, $7.20{\pm}0.25kg$ BW and $28{\pm}2$ d of age) were randomly fed 1 of 5 treatment diets containing dietary ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan supplemented at 0, 25, 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg for 4 wks. Each treatment was replicated in 6 pens containing 6 pigs per pen. On d 14 and 28, body weight gain, feed consumption and feed efficiency were recorded as measures of growth performance. Peripheral blood lymphocyte proliferation and serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) were measured to study the effect of dietary ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan supplementation on immune function. Plasma prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), growth hormone (GH) and ghrelin were measured to investigate endocrine response to ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan supplementation. Our results suggest that average daily gain (ADG) and feed efficiency had a quadratic increase trend with dietary ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan supplementation from d 14 to 28, whereas it had no significant effect on average daily feed intake (ADFI). The treatment group fed with 50 mg/kg dietary ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan supplementation showed a numerical increase in ghrelin, a similar change trend with ADG and no significant effect on GH. Lymphocyte proliferation indices, serum IgG and plasma PGE2 concentrations varied linearly with dietary supplementation levels of ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan on d 14. Higher levels of ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan may have a transient immuno-enhancing effect on the cellular and humoral immune function of weanling piglets via decreased PGE2. Taking into account both immune response and growth performance, the most suitable dietary supplementation level of ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan is 50 mg/kg for weanling piglets.

세포막을 투과하는 cyclic AMP의 유도체인 Dibutyryl-cyclic AMP(db-cAMP)와 ad-enylate cyclase를 활성화시킴으로써 세포내에 CAMP를 증가시키는 Forskolin을 이용하여 토끼 대동맥평활근 이완작용의 기전을 검토하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Db-cAMP는 $1{\mu}M$ norepinephrine에 의한 지속성 수축을 농도의존적으로 억제하였으나 고농도의 K에 의한 수축은 억제하지 못하였다. 2. Forskolin은 $1{\mu}M$ norepinephrine에 의한 지속성 수축을 농도의존적으로 억제하였으며, 고통도의 K에 의한 수축보다 더 효과적으로 억제하였다. 3. Db-cAMP는 $1{\mu}M$ norepinephrine에 의한 $^{45}Ca$ 유입증가를 억제하였다. 4. Forskolin은 $1{\mu}M$ norepinephrine에 의한 $^{45}Ca$ 유입증가를 억제하였으며, 고농도의 K에 의한 $^{45}Ca$ 유입증가도 억제하였으나 유의차는 없었다. 5. Db-cAMP는 칼슘이온 제거용액에서 $l{\mu}M$ norepinephrine에 의한 일과성 수축을 농도의존적으로 억제하였다. 이상의 결과에서 cAMP는 수용체작동성 칼슘채널(ROCs)을 통한 칼슘이온의 유입을 억제함으로써 norepinephrine에 의한 수축을 억제하며, 고농도의 K수축 억제가 전위의존성칼슘채널(VGCs)을 통한 칼슘이온의 유입의 억제에 의한 것인지는 확실치 않다. 또한 cAMP는 norepinephrine에 의한 세포내 칼슘이온의 유리에 의한 일과성 수축도 억제한다.

The cactus family Cactaceae, numbering about 1,500 species, is a fleshy-stemmed perennial plant which is principally distributed in the south and north America. On the other hand, the cactus plant is presumed to be introduced into Korea in 1912-1945, thereafter it has been cultivated merely in favor of ornamentation with the exception of being occasionally used as medication among laymen. Opuntia elata which belongs to Opuntia genus, the Cactaceae family is one of the cacti being cultivated a great deal in Korea. Cho et. al. reported in 1974 that Opuntia dilenii manifested the cardiac inhibitory effect and oxytocic effect, and its mechanism might be partially due to the direct action. Besides this, there are few reports on the pharmacological research concerning Opuntia genus to be demonstrated in Korea. However, some other cacti have the remarkable pharmacological effects; the active ingredients, mescaline, anhalamine, anhalanine, etc. from Peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii) belonging to Lophophora genus have the psychotomimetic and sympathomimetic effects, and the cardioactive glycosides from Cactus Grandifolius (Selenicereus grandiflorus) belonging to Cereus genus have the cardioactive and diuretic effects. The authors hereby inquired into this study to find out the propriety of the pharmacological properties of the ethanol extract of Opuntia elata (EX) on the heart, blood pressure, respiration, intestine and uterus in the experimental animals. The results of the experiment were as follows: 1. Administration of EX manifested the cardiac inhibitory effect caused by the negative inotropic action in the isolated heart of frog, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the inhibitory effect produced by EX. 2. Administration of EX manifested the transient hypotensive effect in the intact rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the hypotensive effect produced by EX. 3. Administration of the small dose of EX manifested no significant effect, but moderate dose or more the stimulating effect, and the large dose the asphyxia on the respiratory motility in the intact rabbit. 4. Administration of EX manifested the sustained augmentation of contractility in the excised duodenum of rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine did not affect the stimulating effect produced by EX. 5. Administration of EX manifested the sustained augmentation of contractility in the excised pregnant uterus of rabbit, and the pretreatment of atropine and oxytocin did not affect the oxytocic effect produced by EX, but that of barium chloride more or less stimulated the oxytocic effect produced by EX.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of cerebral ischemia on affected(Lt) and unaffected(Rt) side of soleus, plantaris and gastrocnemius muscle mass and determine the effect of exercise on affected and unaffected side on soleus, plantaris and gastrocnemius muscle mass during acute stage of stroke. Sixteen male Sprague-Dawley rate with 200-270g body weight were randomly divided into three groups: control, stroke, and exercise after stroke(St+Ex) group. The control group received sham operation and the stroke group and St+Ex group received transient right MCA(middle cerebral artery) occlusion operation. The St+Ex groups ran on a treadmill for 20min/day at 10m/min and $10^{\circ}$ grade for 6days. During the experimental period body weight and diet intake was measured every morning. On the 7th day after operation, muscles were dissected from both affected and unaffected side of hindlimb. Cerebral infarction of stroke and St+Ex groups were identified by staining with TCC for 30 minutes. The data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test using the SPSSWIN 9.0 program. Significance was accepted at the level of p<0.05. The results were summarized follows : 1) There were no significant difference of the body weight on the first day of experiment among 3 groups. Whereas on the 7th day, the body weight of both stroke group and St+Ex group were significantly smaller than that of control group. Body weight of St+Ex group on the 7th day tended to be larger than that of stroke group. 2) Total diet intake of both stroke group and St+Ex group were also significantly smaller than that of control group. While total amount of diet intake in St+Ex group tended to be larger than that of stroke group. 3) The weight of gastrocnemius muscle of affected side in stroke group significantly decreased compared to that of control group and the weight of soleus and plantaris muscle of affected side in stroke group tended to decrease compared to that of control group. 4) The weight of plantaris muscle of unaffected side in stroke group significantly decreased compared to that of control group and the weight of soleus and gastrocnemius muscle of unaffected side in stroke group tended to decrease compared to those of control group. 5) The weight of gastrocnemius muscle of affected side in stroke group significantly decreased compared to that of unaffected side and there was no significant difference of the weight of soleus and plantaris muscle in stroke group between affected side and unaffected side. 6) The weight of soleus, plantaris and gastrocnemius muscle of both affected side and unaffected side in St+Ex group had a tendency of increase compared to those of stroke group. The relative weight of soleus and gastrocnemius muscle of affected side and soleus muscle of unaffected side in St+Ex group had a tendency to increase compared to those of stroke group. Based on these results, exercise during acute stage of stroke might attenuate muscle atrophy of both affected and unaffected side of hindlimb muscles.

Objective: As a manual accupucture method, the twirling-needle treatment has been known more effective in relieving pain than the conventional simple accupuncture treatment. Finding a proper treatment condition is difficult because of the lack of a quantative measurement of the alleviation of pain made by acupuncture. In this research, the authors propose the use of infrared thermal images in a formalin test to quantatively verify the effect of twirling. Methods: After injecting 10%~20% formalin into the tail of rats, the infrared thermal images(ITI) have been obtained to estimate the thermal distribution caused by inflammation. The authors propose a processing method to measure the thermal distribution from the thermal images obtained from the infrared camera as a pain model of the formalin test. Results: The pain model obtained from the infrared thermal image has two phases. The first phase, which is a transient period, is the initial 20 minutes when the pain is developed after the formalin injection. The second phase, which is a steady state, is where the development of pain lasts for 60 minutes or more after the first stage. This characteristic of the proposed model based on ITI is consistent with that of the pain model reported by other researchers whose works are based on the time-course of flinching and licking/biting, following a different concentration of formalin. It is noticed that the response of the thermal distribution obtained from ITI shows very high correlation to the behavioral response in the formalin test performed by Kazuhiro Okuda and four others5). In addition, the authors propose an ITI method to determine the pain-reducing effect of the acupuncture. The thermal distribution obtained from the experiment shows that there is significant pain reducing effect made by the twirling-needle method.

흰쥐 시상하부에서 합성ㆍ분비되어 뇌하수체 전엽에서의 growth hormone (GH) 분비를 촉진하는 growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH)이 시상하부 이외 조직들 (extrahypothalamic tissues)인 태반, 생식소, 그리고 뇌하수체 전엽에서도 발현됨이 보고되었다. 본 연구는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 발현되는 GHRH의 기능을 조사하기 위해 i)세포 배양을 시행하면서 GHRH의 세포내 함량, 분비 그리고 세포분획법 (cell-fractionation)을 사용하여 분리한 뇌하수체 세포 유형별로 GHRH 함량을 방사면역측정법으로 조사하였고, ii)체외배양 중인 뇌하수체 전엽세포의 증식에 미치는 GHRH의 효과를 측정하기 위해 [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation assay를, 그리고 iii) GHRH의 세포분열 촉진 효과와 세포내 c-fos 유전자 발현과의 상관관계를 조사하기 위해 northern blot analysis를 시행하였다. GHRH 방사면역측정법을 시행한 결과 상당량의 GHRH-like 분자들이 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽내에 존재하고, 체외 세포배양시 분비됨을 관찰하였다. 세포분획을 사용한 실험에서 GHRH 함량은 gonadotrope, somatotrope, lactotrope 그리고 thyrotrope 순으로 나타났다. 이 러한 결과는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 생성된 GHRH가 국부적인 조절인자, 특히 상이한 유형의 세포들 간의 상호조절 (cross-talk)을 통해 뇌하수체 전엽에서의 세포분열과 분화, 그리고 기능조절에 관여할 가능성을 보여주었다. GHRH는 체외 배양중인 뇌하수체 전엽세포의 [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation을 농도의존적으로 증가시켰으며, 이러한 GHRH의 세포분열 촉진 효과는 예상대로 세포내 oncogene 활성 의 증가를 통해 일어나는 것임을 c-fos northrn blot으로 확인하였다. 결론적으로, 본 연구는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 합성되는 GHRH가 paracrine 또는 autocrine 기작으로 GH의 분비 촉진 이외에도 세포분열의 조절함을 시사하는 것이다.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the nutrient loss and to assess the eutrophication into small stream by intensive rains in the steeped cornfield during cultivation. The crop cultivated was a soiling com (DW5969), and the experimental plots were divided into two parts that were 10 and 18% of slope degrees. The amount of T-N and T-P loss was calculated by analysis of surface run-off water quality, and was investigated the effect of eutrophication to small stream as a part of life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology application. For the surface run-off water quality, EC and T-N values were highest in first runoff event as compared to the other events and maintained the stage state with litter variations at every hour during the runoff period except for EC in the slope 18%. However, T-P concentration has been a transient stage after runoff event of July 27. Total surface run-off ratio was not significantly different with slope degrees, but amount of T-N and T-P losses at 18% of slope were high as $5.96kg\;ha^{-1}\;and\;0.65kg\;ha^{-1}$ as relative to 10% of slope degree, respectively. Furthermore, T-N losses from run-off water in the sloped cornfield 10 and 18% were approximately 9.8 and 12.5% of the N applied as fertilizer when the fertilizer applied at recommended rates after soil test, respectively. For the eutrophication impact to the small stream, it was shown that $PO_4$ equivalence and Eco-indicator value at 18% of slope degree were greater as much $6.11kg\;ha^{-1}$ and 0.81 as compared to the slope angle 10%, respectively. Therefore, it was appeared that each effect of nutrient losses, eutrophication and Eco-indicator value was enhanced according with higher slope degree.
