The purpose of this study was to determined the effect of low-frequency electrical stimulation on the denervated gastrocnemius muscles of the albino rats, Sprague-Dawley. Fifteen Sprague-Dawley adult male albino rats were divided into non-treated (normal) group, denervated (control) group, denervated and electrical stimulated (experiments). The gastrocnemius muscles of the right leg were submaximally stimulated with 30 Hz electrical stimulation. After 4-week period, the animals were sacrificed, and muscle were removed, fixed by immersion, and processed for light and electron microscopy. The numbers of Ag-NOR increased significantly (p<0.001), but significant reductions of girth(p<0.01), wet muscle weight (p<0.001), high glycogen content fiber (p<0.01), and mitochondrial number (p<0.05) were found in denervated control group. In comparison with control group, significant increase of right leg girth (p<0.05), wet muscle weight (p<0.001), high glycogen content fiber (p<0.05), numbers of Ag-NOR(p<0.001), number of mitochondria (p<0.01), mitochondrial volume found in electrical stimulated experimental group. The results suggest that the electrical stimulation of the muscle partially prevented the denervated atrophy in the rat gastrocnemius muscles.

The present study was conducted in order to elucidate the asymptomatic carrier state of dermatophytes on the laboratory rodents in Korea during the period from August 1986 to April 1987. A total of 988 laboratory rodents, comprising 393 albino rats, 285 albino mice, 238 guinea pigs and 72 hamsters, were randomly selected for the isolation of dermatophytes from 6 research institutes and 2 breeding farms. And the mating experiments were performed to identified the perfect states of Trichophyton mextagrophytes isolated from albino rats. Dermatophytes were recovered from 94 of 393(23.9%) albino rats and from 3 of 5 colonies. Isolation rate of each colony was 38.4%, 32.0% and 9.8%, respectively, and the albino rats over 2 months old(28.2%) were higher than below 2 months old(2.9%) in the isolation rate of dermatophytes. Among 94 strains of dermatophytes isolated from albino rats, all the strains were identified T mentagrophytes, except 1 strain of Microsporum gypseum, and its perfect states were Arthroderma $vanbreuseghemii^+$.

Effects of alginate and tangle on the suppression of intestinal absorption of heavy metals were tested by albino rats. The absorption of cadmium was suppressed by adding 5% or 10% alginate to the diets contaminated with 5 ppm cadmium, but not by 1% a1ginate or 10% tangle (p<0.05).

Nineteen cases of Albino rat having naturally occurred renal lesions were observed during the routine examination of a total of 240 cases. The lesions observed were focal suppurative nephritis (6 cases), acute nonsuppurative nephritis (3 cases), chronic interstitial nephritis (4 cases), nematode infection in pelvic epithelium (5 cases, in which one case was coincident with focal suppurative nephritis) and unilateral hydronephrosis (2 cases). Gross and microscopic findings for the lesions were described and discussed.

Cholic, ursodesoxycholic, chenodesoxycholic, desoxycholic and hydesoxycholic acids were dissolved in the propylene glycol to make solution and then above solution of cholanic acids on bile secretion was investigated by injection those solutions into small intestine of rabbits and albino rats. The cholates in bile juice from rabbits injected with cholic acid were remarkably increased and therefore it exhibited a typical choleretic action. In view of pharmacological point, desoxycholic acid is considered as superior hydrocholeretic agent, and ursodesoxycholic and chenodesoxycholic acids have similar effect in decreasing order. However, the effect of bile secretion by hyodesoxycholic acid was almost negligible as that by propylene glycol administered. The cholate content in the bile juice from albino rat was increased by cholic and desoxycholic acids in decreasing order: i.e., they exhibited choleretic action. In the case of ursodesoxycholic and chenodesoxycholic acids, the concentration of cholate was slightly increased in bile juice from the rat, so that these cholates showed a weak choleretic action. While total output of bilirubin was increased by chenodesoxycholic acid, the other cholanic acid showed no effect in the rabbit.

The amount of total lipids nad phospholipids in the rat liver and brain after sodium nitrite treatment was measured together with the composition ratio of phospholipids. The results obtained were as follows : 1) The amount of total lipids and phospholipids was decreased significantly and this decrease was more outstanding in the rat brain liver. 2) The amount of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and sphingomyelin was decreased, whereas that of phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol nitrite treatment of 120mg/kg/day concentration brings inhibition of lipid metabolism in the rat liver and brain.

成長期雄性흰쥐(Wister Institute, albino rat) 72마리를 對照群, 無處理大豆給食群 및 $100^{\circ}C$와 $120^{\circ}C$ 加熱處理大豆給食群으로 나누고 各 食餌는 蛋白質含量(14%)과 熱量400kcal/100g)을 一定하게 조절하였다. 該當食餌로 5日, 15日 및 30日 급식후 급식기간별로 腦와 大動脈의 cholesterol 含量을 관찰한 바 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 腦의 totaㅣ, free형 및 ester형 cholesterol은 각 급식기간별로 각 群은 對照群과 비슷한 함량을 보였다. 2. 大動脈의 total, free형 cholesterol은 5日 급식군에서 對照群보다 $100^{\circ}C$ 와 $120^{\circ}C$ 加熱處理給食群이 높은 含量을 보였으나 15日 급식군이나 30日 급식군은 모두 비슷한 함량을 보였다. 그러나 ester형 cholesterol은 각 급식기간 一定한 경향을 보이지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 보아 大豆를 無處理했을때나 $100^{\circ}C$ 와 $120^{\circ}C$ 加熱處理하여 給食시켰을 때 흰쥐의 腦와 大動脈 cholesterol 함량에 별차이가 없었음을 알수있었다.

cis-Dichlorodiammineplatinum (II) (cis-Platin) inhibits the proliferation and growth of the tumor cells by way of inhibiting DNA and protein synthesis of the cancer cells. Although cis-Platin is very effective antitumor drug, it also produces many other side effects. Thus the author has studied the effects of cis-Platin on the proximal epiphyseal plate in the tibia of the rat. The results were as follows: In the chondrocyte of the proliferative zone, sacculated, and fragmented cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum, some mitochondria with disorganized mitochondrial cristae and distorted procollagens were observed, and in the matrix some large matrix granules and dispersed collagen fibrils were revealed on the 1st, 3rd day and 1st week group of cis-Platin treated rats. In the chondrocyte of the proliferative zone of cis-Platin treated rats on the 2nd and 3rd week group, parallely arranged rough endoplasmic reticulum and many procollagens were shown, and in the matrix a number of large matrix granules and many small matrical granules as well as collagen fibrils were revealed. Consequently it is suggested that though cis-Platin induces the degenerative changes of the chondrocyte resulting in components of the cartilagenous matrix, these toxic effects are regressed with time.
