The effect of $\beta$-$Si_3N_4$ seeding on microstructural development of silicon nitride based materials has been investigated. In particular, to observe more distinctly the abnormal grain growth in pressureless sintering, fine $\alpha$-$Si_3N_4$(mean particle size: 0.26 ${\mu}m$) powder classified by sedimentation method was used. It was possible to prepare silicon nitride with abnormally grown grains under low nitrogen pressure of 1 atm thanks to the heterogeneous nucleation on $Si_3N_4$ seed particles. The size and morphology of silicon nitride grains were strongly influenced by the presence of $\beta$-$Si_3N_4$ seed and overall chemical composition. For specimens with initially low $\beta$-content, the large grains grew without a significant impingement by other large grains. On the contrary, for specimens with initially high $\beta$-content, steric hindrance was effective. The resulting microstructure was less inhomogeneous and characterized by unimodal grain size distribution.

Several plant growth regulators were examined for on their effect on the in vitro propagation of Kalopanax pictus$(T_{HUNB}.)$ $(N_{AKAI}.)$ on WPM medium. Among the cytokinins tested, BA at $13.32\;{\mu}M$ appeared to be the most effective for multiple axillary shoot formation. Although the addition of $2.89\;{\mu}M\;GA_3$ promoted stem elongation, it produced morphologically abnormal leaves and stems. For rooting of the shoots, $4.9\;{\mu}M$ IBA seemed to be more effective than $2.69\;{\mu}M$ NAA. When the regenerated plants were transferred on artificial mixture containing vermiculite and peat-moss (1 : 1, v/v), 81% of them survived and grew normally.

YBa2Cu3Ox ceramics superconductors fabricated using solid state reaction usually contain second phases, such as BaCuO2 and CuO. These second phases are located long the grain boundaries and enhance the abnormal growth of YBa2Cu3Ox grains and, consequently, generate the microcracks. These second phaases were reduced by adding Y2BaCuO5 into solid state reacted YBa2Cu3Ox ceramics. Y2BaCuO5 reacts with grain boundary second phases and reduces the grian size of the ceramics. It was observed the critical current density was improved by adding Y2BaCuO5 into solid state reacted YBa2Cu3Ox ceramic superconductor.

Microwave dielectric properties of $BiNbO_4$ containing CuO and $V_2O_5$(BN ceramics). BN ceramic with 0.07wt% $V_2O_5$ and 0.03wt% CuO (BNC3V7) was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ where it is possible for these to be co-fired with Ag electrode. The dielectric constant of 44.3, TCF (Temperature Coefficient of resonance Frequency) of 2 ppm/$^{\circ}$ and Q${\times}f_o$ value (product of Quality value and resonance Frequency) of 22,000GHz could be obtained from those ceramics. It is observed that orthorhombic structure was stable $1000^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increases, the dielectric properties decreased. The main reasons were abnormal grain growth and the main peak of triclinic moved from the main peak of orthorhombic.

Akt (or Protein Kinase B; PKB) is a serine/threonine kinase and is activated by phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. Recent evidence indicates that the abnormal activities or expression of Akt is closely associated with cancer, diabetes and neuro-degenerative diseases. These findings mean that Akt is likely to be a new therapeutic target for the treatment of disease. Here, we screened the effects of dithiolo-dithione derivatives such as SWU-20004, SWU-20009 and SWU-20025 on Akt activities. Among these compounds, only SWU-20009 (2-Thioxo-[1,3]dithiolo[4,5- $\beta$][1,4]dithiine-5,6-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester) inhibited the growth of KATOIII cell at micromolar range of concentration. Further investigation also revealed that SWU-20009 inhibited cellular Akt activity and induced apoptotic cell death.

Acne, which intrucdes the pilosebaceous unit, is a chronic inflammatory disease. The symptom of comedones, papules, pustules, cysts, nodules and scar mainly raises on the face, upper back, shoulder and neck. The cause of acne is the secreting growth of sebum, abnormal follicular keratiniziation, the form of group of propionibacterium acnes, and the respones of inflammation etc. But the original mechanism of the cytobiologic level is exactly not known yet. We treated three patients suffered from acne with acupuncture, venesection, Chungsangbangpung-tang, wet dressing with Gamihwangryunhaedok-tang. After treatments we observed the improvement. Based on this study, it is considered that acupuncture, venesection, Chungsangbangpung-tang wet drssing with Gamihwangryunhaedok-tang can be applied to the management of acne.

Hepatic fibrosis is a common response to various chronic hepatic injuries and occurs as a consequence of the transformation of hepatic stellate cells into myofibroblasts (MFBs) producing abnormal extracellular matrix which is mainly induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-${\beta}$), especially TGF-${\beta}$1 [1,2]. As the liver becomes fibrotic, there are both quantitative and qualitative changes in several pathological markers related to the hepatic fibrosis. These fibrotic markers in liver are mainly consisted of several proteins and cytokines, but sometimes included specific type cells. The aim of this study was to detect expression and change of markers (TGF-${\beta}$, mallory body, cytokeratin, ${\alpha}$-SMA, hypoxia, collagen) during hepatic fibrogenesis. (omitted)

Effects of binder addition method during compacting on microstructural change and magnetic characteristics of Sr-ferrite system was investigated. Used binders were PVA and PEG, which were added separately or simultaneously. After compacts were heated at 50$0^{\circ}C$ for 3hr in air for burning out all the binders, they were sintered at 125$0^{\circ}C$ for 2h. Based on results, in the case of using the two binders simultaneously, comparing to single binder system, compacted density was somewhat higher but sintered density was rather lower, and abnormal grain growth was accelerated. According to these sintering characteristics, remanent magnetization and coercive force were also diminished.

The effect of aggregates on the forming and sintering behaviors of BaTiO3 was studied. Aggregates and deaggregates of fine crystallite were obtained by thermal decomposition of oxalate coprecipitates and subsequently crushing them with a press, respectively. Large voids formed by packing of aggregates were not easily eliminated despite the successive destruction of aggregates with increasing forming pressure. As a result, compacts of aggregates showed inhomogeneity with larger mid-pore size and broader pore size distribution with respect to those of deaggregates. This inhomogeneity caused differential shrinkage and consequental internal stress, which retarded densification. The differential sintering increased the size of mid-pores in the initial stage, and formed duplex structure composed of dense region with abnormally grown grains and porous region with fine grains. The driving force of this abnormal grain growth shown in the specimens of aggregates was attributed to the minimization of the elastic strain energy due to internal stress.

Rett syndrome (RS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by loss of cognitive, motor, and social skills, epilepsy, autistic behavior, abnormal airway patterns, gastroesophageal reflux, nutritional problems, and severe scoliosis. Although girls with RS show normal or near-normal growth until 6-8 months, they lose their skills after that. The anesthetic management of these patients requires care because of all these clinical features. Especially in the postoperative period, prolonged apnea is common and extubation is delayed. In this case report, the effect of using sugammadex was presented in a 16-year-old girl with RS. The patient's all bimaxillary teeth and 4 wisdom teeth were extracted under general anesthesia in one session with minimal surgical trauma and moderate bleeding. Sugammadex can be a rapid and reliable agent for the reversal of the neuromuscular block in neurodegenerative patients.
