계배 대뇌의 발생에 미치는 malathion의 영향을 형태,세포화학으로 비교분석하기 위하여, 수정란 부란 2일, 4일 및 6일째에 0.1mg의 malathion을 단독으로 처리하거나,NAM 5.0mg을 복합처리하여 부란 9일째 조사하였던 바, 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1.malathion은 대뇌피질내 신경세포들의 분화를 억제하여, 처리군의 핵의 불규칙상,핵막이중층의 분리, 리보솜의 분포감소, 혹은 소포체 팽창에 의한 액포형성과 같은 미세구조상의 특징이 나타났다. 2.신경세포내에서 AchE 활성은 핵막과 소포체에서 주로 나타나고, malathion에 의하여 이 효소의 활성은 크게 억제되었으며, 이러한 효소활성 억제현상은 정량분석 결과와 거의 일치하였다. 3.대뇌의 LDH 활성은 malathion에 의하여 오히려 증가되었다. 4.malathion은 계배 NAD를 크게 감소 시켰고, NAM복합처리에 의하여 NAD함량과 형태적 변화가 회복되었고, 대뇌의 Ach 및 LDH 활성 변화를 다소 완화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과들을 종합해보면 유기적 화합물의 하나인 malathion은 분화중인 계배 대뇌의 신경세포들의 미세구조를 변화시키고, 대뇌의 LDH활성은 증가시켰으나 AChE 활성을 크게 억제하였으며, 계배의 NAD 함량을 감소시켰다. 또한 NAD 함량의 감소와 형태적인 변화사이에는 다소간의 연관성이 나타났고, malathion의 저해작용은 처리량과 처리시기에 의존한는 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of diclazuril on the bursa of Fabricius (BF) structure and secretory IgA (SIgA) expression in chickens infected with Eimeria tenella were examined. The morphology of the BF was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, while ultrastructural changes were monitored by transmission electron microscopy. E. tenella infection caused the BF cell volumes to decrease, irregularly arranged, as well as, enlargement of the intercellular space. Diclazuril treatment alleviated the physical signs of damages associated with E. tenella infection. The SIgA expression in BF was analyzed by immunohistochemistry technique. The SIgA expression increased significantly by 350.4% (P<0.01) after E. tenella infection compared to the normal control group. With the treatment of diclazuril, the SIgA was relatively fewer in the cortex, and the expression level was significantly decreased by 46.7% (P<0.01) compared with the infected and untreated group. In conclusion, E. tenella infection in chickens induced obvious harmful changes in BF morphological structure and stimulated the expression of SIgA in the BF. Diclazuril treatment effectively alleviated the morphological changes. This result demonstrates a method to develop an immunological strategy in coccidiosis control.

A new sudden death in rabbits appeared in China and Korea in 1984 and 1985, respectively, and was recognized to be an acute infectious disease caused by a virus. The disease was reported as a "new viral disease," and thereafter, a tentative name of "viral hemorrhagic disease", "hemorrhagic pneumonia" or "viral hemorrhagic pneumonia" has been described in the case reports. But authors had called the viral disease "rabbit viral hepatitis" due to picornavirus infection, because the principal lesion of the disease was an acute hepatitis. The purpose of this report is to describe the electron microscopic findings on the livers in experimentally infected rabbits. All the livers of the affected rabbits were shown to have degenerative changes of a type that is characteristic of acute hepatitis. In the liver cells, there were dilation of rER and mitochondria, vacuole formation of various sizes, and appearances of many virus-like particles in the vicinity of rER, granular bodies and crystalline arrays of viral particles in the cytoplasm with necrotic changes of the nucleus. Clusters of virus-like particles and viral crystals appeared in the cytoplasm of sinusoid endothelial cells and Kupffer's cells with morphological changes of organelles. Also viral crystals were demonstrated in the cytoplasm of macrophages among the liver cells. On the whole, the liver cells had many virus-like particles and a few crystalline arrays of viral particles. Therefore, this implies that the liver cells are the main site of the viral replication in inducing the viremia. It was concluded that the liver was the primary target organ of this viral disease, and the pathological and the ultrastructural evidence suggest that the virus may be belong to genus enterovirus.

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is frequently used technique in reconstruction of bony defects resulted from tumor resection, congenital deformity, and trauma in the maxillofacial region. Although the histologic and ultrastructural changes associated with distraction osteogenesis have been extensively described, the exact changing of the surrounding tissues, such as nerve tissues, were still unclear. This study observed the histological changes and the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) after distraction osteogenesis. Unilateral mandibular distraction (0.5 mm twice per day for 10 days) was performed in eight mongrel dogs. Two animals were sacrificed at 7, 14, 28 and 56 days after completion of distraction, respectively. The distracted IAN and contralateral control nerve were harvested and processed for histological and innunohistochemical examinations. The signs of acute nerve injuries, such as demyelination and partial discontinuation of nerver fiber, were observed in the distracted IAN on 7 and 14 days after distraction. The initial remyelination and regeneration of distracted IAN were showed at 14 days after completion of distraction. At 56 days later, the histologic features of distracted IAN was similar to those of the normal control IAN. The expression of NGF was significantly increased in most distracted nerve tissues on 7, 14 and 28 days after distraction. On 56 days after distraction, the expression of NGF returned to the normal level. This study suggested that the acute IAN injury caused by mandibular distraction were mostly recovered during consolidation period. The NGF was seemed to be induced from Schwann cell and damaged nerve tissues, and it may have important roles in the initial healing of damaged nerves.

The morphological changes of Sertoli cells of the Korean native pheasant were studied in the active and inactive spermatogenic phases. Twenty-four male of the pheasants were studied in the active (April~June) and inactive(August~March) phase. These data are useful in studying the male genital organs of the Korean native pheasant. Light microscopic morphological changes of the Sertoli cells were studied on paraffin-embedded sections stained with hematoxylin-eosin stain. Ultrastructural changes of Sertoli cells were investigated of ultrathin section using electron microscope. Results are summarized as follows: During the active phase, the average diameter of seminiferous tubule was $245.33{\pm}29.93{\mu}m$ and was largely decreased by $94.50{\pm}14.10{\mu}m$, and the thickness of interstitial tissue was comparatively increased during the inactive phase. During the active phase, in the cytoplasmic process of Sertoli cell and lipid droplets appeared disperse. Well-developed smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum and microtuble were observed in the cytoplasmic process. The nuclei of Sertoli cells were adjacent to the basement membrane. The size of nuclei was reduced and nuclei of Sertoli cells were densely packed within the tubule. Few collagen fibers, fibroblast and various sizes of lipid droplets were observed in the interstitial cell of the seminiferous tubule.

This study was made to investigate the ultrastructural changes of the hepatocyte of the maternal liver, and fetal liver by Actinomycin D in Wistar rats at the stage of pregnancy. Peritoneal injection of Actinomycin D to rats carried out gestation day 7 to 9 at the level of $15{\mu}g(11.5{\mu}g/100g$ body wt.), $20{\mu}g(15.8{\mu}g/100g$ body wt.) on each day. Treated animals with saline only were used for controls. Animals were sacrificed on day 15 of gestation. On electron microscopic examination, the hepatocytes of maternal liver given Actinomycin D $15{\mu}g$/ml had evidence of serious cellular damage, for example, hypertrophy of rough endoplasmic reticulum, loss in nucleolar osmiophilia, swelling of Golgi apparatus and change of mitochondrial structure. Maternal liver given Actinomycin D $20{\mu}g/ml$ shown similar changes to that of the $15{\mu}g/ml$ treated animals. But mitochondria of this group were not changed than that of $15{\mu}g/ml$ treated group. In the hepatocytes of fetal liver, changes were more pronounced. The drug produced alteration in nuclei and cytoplasm. The rough endoplasmic reticulum was swollen and there were ribosomes detachement. In addition, damages of mitochondria, Golgi apparatus were detected.

The unwanted artificial oil-spill has severely contaminated the coastal environment in the world. Level of contamination has so far been monitered by various indicator species including mussel, oysters, flounder, and cockle. In this study, we decided to use the oyster as a model organism to observe the morphological changes being exposed to the artificial oil-spill in the coastal areas in Taean, Korea. The oysters were collected from four local sites (Sindu-ri, Uiwang-ri, Jonghyeon-dong, Ansan and Uihang-ri) exposed to various levels of pollution after an oil spill in Taean. Microscopic analysis of the hepatopancreatic microstructure in the digestive gland from the collected oysters show that the swelling, whorl, and destruction phenomenon of the nuclear membrane, a well-known microstructure induced by heavy metal exposure, was observed. Nuclear body (Nb), another typical characteristic of contamination or infection were also observed in some samples. Necrosis was observed in tissue samples collected from the area with a high degree of oil pollution. In addition, parasite-like particles (virus, perkinsus) were observed in most samples. Taken together, these results suggest that oil contamination in the oyster habitats influences the cytopathological changes in Crassostrea gigas.

본 실험은 골격의 위축이 일어난 노화 횐 쥐를 사용하여 단기간동안 트레드밀 훈련과 웨이트 트레이닝을 시켰을 때 골격근에 나타나는 변화들을 고찰하고자 고안되었다. 출생 후 24개월 된 수컷 횐 쥐를 사용하여 대조군과 트레드밀 훈련군, 웨이트 트레이닝군으로 구분하여 각 군별로 4주간 훈련시켜 각 군의 골격근은 조직 및 조직화학, 미세구조 및 세포 화학적 연구 및 입체해석학적 연구에 적용하였다. 각 훈련 기간동안 개체의 체중과 근육의 무게는 큰 변화가 없었고, 근섬유의 분포양상은 트레드밀 훈련군에서는 IIB형과 IIC형이 증가를 한 반면 IIA형은 감소를 하였고 I형의 근섬유 조성은 변화가 없었다 웨이트 트레이닝 후에는 IIA와 IIB형이 증가를 한 반면 IIC형은 감소하였다. 그러나 모든 근섬유 조성의 변화에는 유의성이 없었다. 노화 대조군의 조직구조 및 미세구조의 특징은 노화색소의 출현, 약한 수축대의 출현, 근섬유들의 분할현상 등이 관찰되었다 트레드밀 훈련 후에는 손가락형의 돌출부를 포함한 근초의 불규칙성이 나타났으며, 밝은 띠의 확장으로 인한 Z-선의 불규칙한 배열, 공포화, 장축과 평행한 근섬유의 분할현상이 나타났으며, 웨이트 트레이닝 후에는 많은 용해소체들과 함께 포식소자를 함유한 자가용해소체들이 나타났으며 심한 수축대가 나타났고 근원섬유들의 배열이 와해되는 현상도 나타났다. 조직화학 및 세포화학적인 측면에서 succinic dehydrogenase와 acid phosphatase는 활성도의 변화가 거의 없었으며, $Mg^{++}$-­ATPase의 활성은 훈련 후 약간 감소하는 경향이었다. 미세구조의 입체해석학적 분석에서는 측량한 구조물들의 체적밀도와 수밀도는 변화가 거의 없었고 사립체 내막의 표면밀도만 트레드밀 훈련군에서 증가되었다. 이상의 결과에서 볼 때 단기간의 지구력 훈련을 실시할 경우는 노화 골격근은 잘 적응하여 골격근의 위축 방지에 효율적이었으나 웨이트 트레이닝은 노화 골격근의 위축방지에 영향을 주지 못하였다.

The physico-chemical properties of fresh milt of marbled sole, Limanda yokohamae, brown sole, Limanda herzensteini, starry flounder, Platichthys stellatus and olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus among flatfishes, and the fine structure of their cryopresserved spermatozoa were investigated. The highest concentration of sperm among these four species was $3.60\pm1.35\times10^{10}/mL$ in marbled sole. Osmolality and pH of seminal plasma in four flatfish species were approximately 330 mOsm/kg and 7.6-8.1, respectively. Seminal plasma compositions showed interspecific differences. The sperm heads of marbled sole, brown sole and starry flounder were ellipsoidal and that of olive flounder was round. The numbers of mitochondria of these four species were eight in marbled sole, seven in brown sole and starry flounder, and six in olive flounder. Cross-sectional view of flagellum showed typical 9+ 2 structure in all species. Most of sperms cryopreserved with a proper method had no visible ultrastructural changes after freeze-thawing, compared with the fresh sperm, but in a few cases, swelling of their heads and midpiece regions were observed.
