Vitellins or so named yolk proteins are stored in yolk granules of oocytes. They play major role in providing energy and nutrient for developing embryo. Vitellins are very diverse group of chemically uncharacterized complexes of glyco-, lipo-, phosfoproteins and proteoglycans. Isolation of vitellins and production of antibodies specific to them would be useful for studying the physiology of yolk formation and developmental immunological techniques for investigation reproduction for commercially important marine mollusces.

The dietary carbohydrates are mainly digested and adsorbed at small intestine. We developed a new food additive as an egg yolk antibody(1gY) against maltase, sucrase and sodium dependent g1ucose cotransporter(SGLT) for the regulation of blood glucose level and weight control. The maltase, sucrase and SGLT were purified from porcine small intestine which is very similar to that of human in physiological characteristics. The purification step contained an ultracentrifugation, ion exchange chromatography and hydrophobic chromatography. The hens were immunized by purified protein and the IgY activities against immunized antigens were determined. This antibody obtained from the immunized hen's egg yolks directly inhibited the activities of maltase and sucrase in vitro. And the IgY delayed and decreased the increment of blood g1ucose level after administration of maltose, sucrose and glucose in rat about 30 to 60%. The results of this study suggest that the IgY inhibiting the carbohydrate digestion could be used as functional food materials for weight control and regulation of blood glucose level in diabetes.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary corticosterone on egg quality. For 2 weeks hens received either control or experimental diet containing corticosterone at 30 mg/kg diet. Feed intake and egg production were monitored daily, and body weight measured weekly. Egg weights and egg quality were measured daily. Corticosterone treatment resulted in a remarkable increase in feed intake and sharp decrease in egg production compared with control (p<0.05) whereas body weight remained unchanged. Decreased albumen height, but no changes in egg weight, led to decreased Haugh unit (p<0.05). Corticosterone caused elevated eggshell thickness (p<0.05) without altering weight and strength, suggesting possible changes in shell structure. Yolk color and redness were increased by corticosterone (p<0.05) but lightness and yellowness were either not changed or inconsistent over the time period of measurements. Increased concentrations in plasma were also found for corticosterone, glucose, cholesterol, creatinine, uric acid, albumin, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, total protein, and amylase (p<0.05), suggesting that corticosterone increased protein breakdown, renal dysfunctions and pancreatitis. Together, the current results imply that dietary corticosterone affects egg quality such as yolk colors and shell thickness, in addition to its effects on feed intake and egg production.

Objectives : Egg yolk is composed of various important chemical substances for human health. A calcium shortage causes the growth retardation on the body growth. In this study, we examined the therapeutic effects of calcium, vitamin D and egg yolk peptide (EYP) treatment on the retardation of the longitudinal bone growth induced by low-calcium diet in adolescent rats. Methods : Low calcium diets were administrated for 15 days. During the last five days, calcium and/or vitamin D and/or EYP were administrated. The body weights, longitudinal bone growth rates, the heights of growth plates, and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 expressions were measured using histochemical analysis. Results : Low calcium diets caused the significant reduction in body weight gains and the longitudinal bone growth. The heights of growth plates and the expressions of BMP-2 and IGF-1 showed the impairment of body growth as well. Calcium and/or vitamin D administration could not significantly increase the longitudinal bone growth. However, calcium, vitamin D, and EYP administration significantly increased the bone growth, the growth plate height, and BMP-2 and IGF-1 expressions. Conclusions : These results suggest that EYP enhances the longitudinal bone growth in the calcium and/or vitamin D deficiency and it could be a promising agent for the treatment of children suffering from malnutrition.

TRAIL, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand belongs to one of important cytokine superfamilIES, tumor necrosis factor ($TNF{\alpha}$). TRAIL-2 receptor agonists activate several cell signaling pathways in cells in different manners and could lead to apoptosis or necrosis. Agonistic egg yolk antibodies like IgY which have been developed in a selective manner could activate TRAIL death receptors such as TRAIL-2 (DR5) and thus apoptosis signaling. We here investigated induction of apoptosis in human breast cancer cells (MCF7 cell line) by an IgY produced against an 21 aminoacid epitope of the human TRAIL-2 receptor. As the first step a small peptide of 21 aminoacids choosen from the extracellular domain of DR5 protein was produced with a peptide synthesizer. After control assays and confirmation of the correct amino acid sequence, it was injected to hens immunized to achieve high affinity IgYs. At the next step, the produced IgYs were extracted and examined for specificity against DR5 protein by ELISA assay. Subsequently, the anticancer effect of such IgYs was determined by MTT assay in the MCF7 human breast cancer cell line. The produced peptides successfully immunized hens and the produced antibodies which accumulated in egg yolk specifically recognized the DR5 protein. IgYs exerted significant toxicity and killed MCF7 cells as shown by MTT assay.

안점의 꽃갯지렁이(Pseudopotamilla occelata)의 난자형성중 난황단백질의 전구체인 체강액 단백질(CP)은 수용체에 의해 중개되는데 이러한 수용체 중개에 의한 난모세포내로의 유입은 GTP-binding protein에 의해 조절되는 것으로 확인되었다. 체강액 단백질(CP)을 가장 활발히 투과시키는 중기 난모세포내로의 125 I-CP의 유입은 GTP에 의해 촉지되었고, GTP 유사체인 GTPrS나 GTP$\beta$S의 효과를 금입자로 표지된 체강액 단백질을 이용하여 전자현미경으로 확인해 본 결과, gold-labeled CP는 난황립에 집중되었고, 이러한 현상도 GTP에 의해서는 촉진되었고 GTPrS에 의해서는 억제되었다.

Lily symptomless virus (LSV), Lily mottle virus (LMoV), and Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) are the most prevalent viruses infecting lilies in Korea. Leaf and bulb samples showing characteristic symptoms of virus infection were collected in 2012, and 80 field samples were analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The infection frequencies were 79% for LMoV, 5% for LSV, and 3% for CMV. The LMoV coat protein gene was amplified and cloned into the pET21d(+) expression vector to develop serological diagnostic tools to detect LMoV. The resulting carboxy-terminal His-tagged coat proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli strain BL21 (DE3) by induction with IPTG. The recombinant proteins were purified using Ni-NTA agarose beads and used as an antigen to produce polyclonal antibodies in laying hens. The resulting egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) specifically recognized LMoV from infected plant tissues in immunoblotting assays and had comparable sensitivity to that of a mammalian antibody. In addition, method of immunocapture RT-PCR using this IgY was developed for sensitive, efficient, and rapid detection of LMoV. Based on these results, large-scale bulb tests and detection of LMoV in epidemiological studies can be performed routinely using this IgY. This is the first report of production of a polyclonal IgY against a plant virus and its use for diagnosis.

농어목 어류, C. diagramma 암컷의 vitellogenin과 난황단백의 면역화학적 특성을 서로 비교하였다. 면역화학적 방법에 의해 C. diagramma 암컷의 혈청에서 vitellogenin 1 (VTG1)과 vitellogenin 2 (VTG2)를 동정하였으며, sephacryl S-300 gel 여과법에 의하여 측정된 분자량은 각각 560,000과 410,000이었다. 암컷의 난소 추출액에서는 두 가지 형태의 난황단백인 E2와 E3가 분리되었으며, 이들의 분자량은 각각 410,000과 170,000이었다. $17\beta$-estradiol ($E_2$)을 주사한 수컷의 혈청과 간조직을 abidine-biotin complex (ABC) 방법으로 분석한 결과, vitellogenin과 유사한 물질이 검출되었다. 이상의 결과로 부터, 외인성 $E_2$ 에 의해 간에서 합성된 vitellogenin은 혈액 속으로 방출된 후 난소로 이동되는 것으로 추정되었다. 암컷의 $E_2$, 혈중농도는 산란기인 6월에 최고치를 나타내었고, vitellogenin 상대농도도 $5\~6$월에 최고치를 나타내었다. $E_2$와 vitellogenin의 변화는 본 종의 난소성숙과 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 난황형성에 있어서도 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 암컷 혈청 VTG2와 난소추출액 E2의 분자량이 서로 같고, vitellogenin이 간에서 합성되어 난소내로 이동하는 점으로 보아, 난소내 난황단백 성분의 전구물질은 혈청내의 vitellogenin인 것으로 추정되었다.
