  • The influenza A virus is a highly infectious respiratory pathogen that sickens many people with respiratory disease annually. To prevent outbreaks of this viral infection, an understanding of the characteristics of virus-host interaction and development of an anti-viral agent is urgently needed. The influenza A virus can infect mammalian species including humans, pigs, horses and seals. Furthermore, this virus can switch hosts and form a novel lineage. This so-called zoonotic infection provides an opportunity for virus adaptation to the new host and leads to pandemics. Most influenza A viruses express proteins that antagonize the antiviral defense of the host cell. The non-structural protein 1 (NS1) of the influenza A virus is the most important viral regulatory factor controlling cellular processes to modulate host cell gene expression and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-mediated antiviral response. This review focuses on the influenza A virus NS1 protein and outlines current issues including the life cycle of the influenza A virus, structural characterization of the influenza A virus NS1, interaction between NS1 and host immune response factor, and design of inhibitors resistant to the influenza A virus.

  • 방목생태축산 활성화 방안으로는 정부 소유의 미 이용 초지를 규모화한 공공목장의 형태로 하고 소유와 운영에 따라 1) 정부가 소유하고 운영하되 수입과 지출이 균형을 이루는 경영, 2) 정부가 소유하고 운영하되 수익을 창출하는 경영, 3) 정부가 소유하되 민간(외부 채용 전문경영자)이 운영하는 경영 및 4) 소유와 운영을 개인(민간)에게 모두 이양하여 경영하는 4개의 경영관리모델을 상정하였다. 이상에서 본 연구는 방목생태축산의 활성화를 위해, 4개의 경영관리모델을 제시하고 흑자수익 구조를 위한 경영자의 선발과 업무평가 방안을 제시하였다. 또한 방목생태축산 산지생태계 보전을 위한 관리 방안을 제시하고 있다. 특히 경영관리모델의 시스템관리 중 경영자의 선발 및 업무성과에 대한 평가는 우리나라 기업에서 사용하는 방법을 이용하여 방목생태축산의 특성에 맞도록 변형하여 시도했다는 면에서 의의가 크며 수익구조 개선에도 기여할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 연구에서는 경영자 선발채용과 업적평가에서 미래 환경에 따라 변화하는 축산 조건에 맞춰 평가관리 항목의 변경과 배점의 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

  • Control of hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia is strongly correlated with decreased risk for cardiovascular disease, the most common and fatal diabetic complication. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of garlic and aged black garlic on glycemic control and blood lipid profile in animal model of type 2 diabetes. Three week-old db/db mice (C57BL/Ks, n=21) were fed AIN-93G semipurified diet or diet containing 5% freeze-dried garlic or aged black garlic for 7 weeks after 1 week of adaptation. Fasting serum glucose, insulin, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol and blood glycated hemoglobin were measured. Body weight and food intake of garlic and aged black garlic group were not significantly different from those of the control group. Fasting serum glucose and blood glycated hemoglobin levels were significantly decreased and insulin level was significantly increased in garlic group compared with control group (p<0.05). Consumption of aged black garlic significantly decreased homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and tended to decrease serum glucose. Garlic consumption significantly decreased total cholesterol, while aged black garlic significantly reduced serum total cholesterol and triglyceride and increased HDL-cholesterol levels. These results suggest that garlic exerts hypoglycemic and hypocholesterolemic effect and aged black garlic improved insulin sensitivity and dyslipidemia in db/db mice.

  • 본 연구는 사용자 중심의 3D 사이버공간인 사회적 가상세계에서 인터페이스 환경이 어떻게 초기사용자들의 성과에 영향을 미치는 지에 대해 탐색하였다. 초기의 인기에도 불구하고 사회적 가상세계는 많은 사용자들의 이탈을 경험하고 있다. 한 가지 가능한 원인은 초기사용자들에게 익숙하지 않은 사회적 가상세계의 인터페이스가 그들의 적응에 방해가 될 수 있다는 것이다. 사회적 가상세계에서 하고자 하는 작업에 대한 실패는 초기사용자들의 이탈을 가속화시킬 수 있다는 점에서, 본 연구는 인터페이스 요소들(현존감, 지원성, 피드백)의 초기사용자의 성과에 미치는 영향을 탐색하였다. 40명을 대상으로 하는 실험에서, 각 참여자는 사회적 가상세계인 세컨드라이프에서 7개의 작업을 수행한 후, 설문서에 답하였다. 실험결과, 사회적 가상세계의 지원성과 피드백은 초기사용자의 성과에 유의미한 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났으나 현존감은 영향이 없는 것으로 나타났다.

  • The present laboratory investigation was conducted to assess the effect of heavy metals on carbon mineralization. Soil was treated with three concentrations (50, 100 and $150{\mu}mol\;g^{-1}$ soil) of two heavy metals (Cd and Zn) in a factorial combination of treatments replicated four times. Determination of carbon mineralization was carried out at 3, 7, 14, 21, 28, 42 and 56 days after metal treatments.. The amount of $CO_2$-C released from heavy metal treated soils was found to be decreased at an increasing rate during the first 28 days, followed by slow release as incubation progressed. The total amounts of $CO_2$-C released were 448, 382 and $348mg\;kg^{-1}$ soil respectively for soils treated with 50, 100 and $150{\mu}mol\;g^{-1}$ soil of Zn. The corresponding figures for Cd treated soils were 406, 354 and $282mg\;kg^{-1}$ soil implying that dose-dependent reduction in cumulative $CO_2$-C released from soils. The inhibition of carbon mineralization was found to be high in Cd treated soils than that of Zn treated. Therefore, tolerance and adaptation of the microbial community is likely to be related to the concentration and the type of metal. According to the results, carbon mineralization can be considered as possible indicator of soil pollution by means of heavy metals.

  • Purpose: By focusing on immigrant women's problems and considering human rights, resettlement plans and marital-life adaptation, health status is often overlooked. It was examined in this study. Method: The participants were 110 immigrant women who lived in Busan. Data were collected from September to November 2007 using a questionnaire. Results: One of five of the women had been hospitalized for a delivery, about 25% were pregnant, and most (80.9 %) have never had a pap-smear test. The average score for anxiety was 3.0 (${\pm}2.50$) and for depression 2.9 (${\pm}2.71$). Most were in the normal range for blood pressure, body mass index(BMI), blood sugar and urine test. There was a significant difference in level of anxiety according to education (F=3.42, p=.020) and in level of depression according to age (F=4.05, p=.020), number of children(t=-.444, p=.009), financial status (F=3.75, p=.027) and satisfaction with life (F=6.38, p=.002). There were significant differences in BMI according to age (F=7.73, p=.001), native nation (F=18.38, p=.000), period of stay in Korea (F=3.11, p=.049), education (F=3.82, p=.012), number of children (t=-4.26, p=.040). Conclusion: Although the health status of the immigrant women was good, procreative care protocols should be developed to support immigrant women who are pregnant.

  • Purpose: Posttraumatic growth (PTG) is defined as 'positive psychological change experienced as a result of a struggle with highly challenging life circumstances'. The purpose of this study was to identify the level of PTG and its correlates in Korean patients with breast cancer. Methods: A sample of 120 participants was recruited from outpatients, who had successfully completed primary treatment of breast cancer at a university hospital., Data were collected from June to December, 2014 using Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Illness Intrusiveness Rating Scale, Cancer Coping Questionnaire, Revised Life Orientation Test and The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. Results: Total score for the PTG was $79.18{\pm}17.54$ in patients surviving breast cancer. Bivariate analyses indicated that PTG was positively associated with having a religion, perceived social support, greater optimism, cancer coping, and illness intrusiveness. Results of the regression analysis showed that cancer coping (${\beta}=.29$, p=.001), optimism (${\beta}=0.28$, p=.001) and illness intrusiveness (${\beta}=0.17$, p=.037) were statistically significant in patients' PTG. Conclusion: The research findings show that the variables of cancer coping, optimism and illness intrusiveness significantly explain PTG and these psychological variables can be used to provide improvement in PTG for patients with breast cancer.
