  • The zebra shark Stegostoma fasciatum which had been reared in the commercial aquaria was found dead and submitted for postmortem examination. A pure bacterial culture was isolated from pale and enlarged liver. The analysis of ureC and 16S rRNA genes confirmed the isolate as Photobacterium (P.) damselae subsp. damselae and this pathogen was sensitive to gentamicin. Although, no mortality in mouse was observed in the experimental infection study, the isolation of this pathogen in aquarium fish is significant because it can act as a reservoir to other aquatic animals and can also be zoonotic potential to human during aquarium management. This paper describes the first isolation of P. damselae subsp. damselae from zebra shark.

  • The thickness of specimen is an important factor in microscopic researches. Thicker specimen contains more information, but it is difficult to obtain well focused image with precise details due to optical limit of conventional microscope. Recently, a microscope unit that combines improved illumination system, which allows real time three-dimensional (3D) image and automatic z-stack merging software. In this research, we evaluated the usefulness of this unit in observing thick samples; Golgi stained nervous tissue and ground prepared bone, tooth, and non-transparent small sample; zebra fish teeth. Well focused image in thick samples was obtained by processing z-stack images with Panfocal software. A clear feature of neuronal dendrite branching pattern could be taken. 3D features were clearly observed by oblique illumination. Furthermore, 3D array and shape of zebra fish teeth was clearly distinguished. A novel combination of two channel oblique illumination and z-stack imaging process increased depth of field and optimized contrast, which has a potential to be further applied in the field of neuroscience, hard tissue biology, and analysis of small organic structures such as ear ossicles and zebra fish teeth.

  • Zebra danio와 leopard danio의 부모세대(Po)간의 상반교재를 병행한 교배실험에서 5개체의 small spotted type이 출현한 1개의 실험구를 제외하고는 모두 wild type으로 나타났다. 그리고 F하(1)세대 간의 상반교배로 태어난 F하(2)세대는 wild type과 spotted type의 비율이 모두 3 : 1로 나타났다. F하(1)세대와 Po세대와의 상반교배를 병행한 역교배실험에서는 부모세대를 zebra danio로 사용한 경우, wild type과 spotted type이 178 : 1, 2.7 : 1, 3.9 : 1로 출현하는 실험구를 제외하고는 모두 wild type으로 나타났고, spotted type을 사용한 역교배 및 검정교배실험에서 40개체의 small spotted type으로 출현하는 실험구를 제외하고는 모두 1 : 1의 비율을 나타내었다. Z x F(LZ) 교재실험구 중 두 개의 반복구(각각 2.7 : 1, 3.9 : 1 )에서 wild type과 spotted type의 비율이 3 : 1로 나타났으나, F하(1)세대간의 교배실험과 검정교배실험 결과, zebra danio 암컷이 이형접합자(Pp)였다고 추정되었다. Spotted type과 small spotted type으로 나타나는 예외적인 결과에 대해 아직까지 확실히 규명되지 않았지만, 모든 결과를 종합해 볼 때 반문을 조절하는 유전자의 인자형은 zebra danio가 동형 우성 (PP)이고, leopard danio가 동형 열성(pp)이며, 유전자는 상염색체 상에 존재한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 수정 후부터 15일째까지의 생존율 비교 실험에서 $Z{\times}Z$ (83.8${\pm}$6.7%)와 $L{\times}L$(80.6${\pm}$4.8%)는 생존율에 있어서 그 차이가 통계적으로 유의하지 않았으며, 이들과 다른 교배군인 $Z{\times}L$(73.2${\pm}$2.0%) 이나 $L{\times}Z$(70.6${\pm}$4.2%) 와는 유의차를 보였다. 따라서 D. frankei로 알려졌던 leopard danio는 zebrafish의 aquarium morph인 반문 돌연변이체이지만 leopard danio 사이에 교배가 이루어질 경우에는 유전적으로 안정되어 있음을 알 수 있는 반면에, wild type zebrafish와는 다소의 유전적인 부조화가 존재한다고 추정된다.

  • 동물원에서 사육중이던 8년령의 수컷 그랜트얼룩말이 10일간 침울, 식욕부진, 탈수, 산통의 임상증상을 보이다 폐사하였다. 부검시 하행결장과 직장의 연접부에 무게 1,660 g의 장결석(가로 13.5 cm $\times$ 세로 8 cm)이 발견되었다. 발견된 결석을 주사전자현미경과 에너지 분산형 X선 분광기로 분석한 결과 결석의 중심부는 $SiO_2$ 가 가장 많이 검출되었고, 그 외층은 마그네슘과 인이 가장 많이 검출되었다. 장결석의 생성은 미네랄 성분이 다량 함유된 알팔파 건초의 급여와 깊은 연관이 있는데, 본 예의 장결석증 또한 알팔파 건초의 급여에 기인한 것으로 판단되었다.

  • Background: Ginsenoside-Rg3, the pharmacologically active component of red ginseng, has been found to inhibit tumor growth, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis in various cancer models. Previously, we found that 20(R)-ginsenoside-Rg3 (Rg3) could inhibit angiogenesis. Since microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to affect many biological processes, they might play an important role in ginsenoside-mediated angiomodulation. Methods: In this study, we examined the underlying mechanisms of Rg3-induced angiosuppression through modulating the miRNA expression. In the miRNA-expression profiling analysis, six miRNAs and three miRNAs were found to be up- or down-regulated in vascular-endothelial-growth-factor-induced human-umbilical-vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) after Rg3 treatment, respectively. Results: A computational prediction suggested that mature hsa-miR-520h (miR-520h) targets ephrin receptor (Eph) B2 and EphB4, and hence, affecting angiogenesis. The up-regulation of miR-520h after Rg3 treatment was validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, while the protein expressions of EphB2 and EphB4 were found to decrease, respectively. The mimics and inhibitors of miR- 520h were transfected into HUVECs and injected into zebra-fish embryos. The results showed that overexpression of miR-520h could significantly suppress the EphB2 and EphB4 protein expression, proliferation, and tubulogenesis of HUVECs, and the subintestinal-vessel formation of the zebra fish. Conclusion: These results might provide further information on the mechanism of Rg3-induced angiosuppression and the involvement of miRNAs in angiogenesis.

  • All living things share some common life processes, such as growth and reproduction, and have the ability to respond to their environment. However, each type of organism has its own specialized way of managing biological events. Genetic sequences determine phenotypic and physiological traits. Based on genetic information, comparative genomics has been used to delineate the differences and similarities between various genomes, and significant progress has been made in understanding regenerative biology by comparing the genomes of a variety of lower animal models of regeneration, such as planaria, zebra fish, and newts. However, the genome of lizards has been relatively ignored until recently, even though lizards have been studied as an excellent amniote model of tissue regeneration. Very recently, whole genome sequences of lizards have been uncovered, and several attempts have been made to find regeneration factors based on genetic information. In this article, recent advances in comparative analysis of the lizard genome are introduced, and their biological implications and putative applications for regenerative medicine and stem cell biology are discussed.

  • This thesis that is written by inquiring the shoes of 1990's, is written in order to propose the method of analyzing the changes of shoes design systematically. The picture to be gathered was a content analysis low at ARS and Accessory Collegioni since though the research method took shoes to $1990{\sim}1999$. I categorized the design factors into shape, material, color, decoration. by using those category, the result of analysis of design character. In 1,990's, boots, pumps and straps were the most popular in upper, point and rounded cuban and french were the most popular in toe, leather was the most popular in materiel, suede in F/W and patent in S/S. Black was the most popular color, brown in F/W and white/beige in S/S were the second. Re-created shape that was constructed through the reconstructions of structures and shapes of shoes, shape that was expanded to other genre were appeared in character of design factor. Material image was strengthened by varying patterns of unburned calf, leopard and zebra. Recognition of shoes color was expanded by using unique colorations and abstract, fresh figure colors. Post-modem tendency was appeared like using brassiere strap instead of back strap or using round string in elegant shoes.
