  • Second-order rate constants ($k_N$) have been measured for nucleophilic substitution reactions of S-4-nitrophenyl thiobenzoate with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in $H_2O$ containing 20 mol % DMSO at 25.0 ${\pm}$ 0.1 ${^{\circ}C}$. The Br$\phi$nsted-type plot exhibits a downward curvature, i.e., $\beta_{nuc}$ decreases from 0.94 to 0.34 as the amine basicity increases. The reactions in the aqueous DMSO have also been suggested to proceed through a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate (T${\pm}$) with change in the RDS on the basis of the curved Br$\phi$nsted-type plot. The reactions in the aqueous DMSO exhibit larger $k_N$ values than those in the aqueous EtOH. The macroscopic rate constants ($k_N$) for the reactions in the two solvent systems have been dissected into the microscopic rate constants ($k_1\;and\;k_2/k_{-1}$ ratio) to investigate effect of medium on reactivity in the microscopic level. It has been found that the $k_2/k_{-1}$ ratios are similar for the reactions in the two solvent systems, while $k_1$ values are larger for the reactions in 20 mol % DMSO than for those in 44 wt % EtOH, indicating that the larger $k_1$ is mainly responsible for the larger $k_N$. It has been suggested that the transition state is more stabilized in 20 mol % DMSO through mutual polarizability interaction than in 44 wt % EtOH through H-bonding interaction.

  • 목적 : X-선 조사 후 이동원 염색체와 환형 염색체의 빈도가 피폭 선량과 비례하는지를 확인하고, X-선 조사시 선량률의 변화가 생물학적 선량 측정에 영향을 주는지를 찾아서 보정인자로 작용하는지를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법 : 28세의 건강한 성인남자에서 2회에 걸쳐 각각 16 ml와 18 ml의 전혈을 정맥으로부터 무균채취하여 이미 해파린(heprin) 처리되어 있는 10 ml의 vacutainer (삼화공사, 한국)에 2 ml씩 분주하였다. 분주한 혈액 시료를 1개는 정상대조 군으로 16개는 실험 군으로 총 17개를 실험에 사용하였으며, 방사선 조사는 조사야 10${\times}$10 cm$^{2}$로 분당 240 cGy 의 일정한 선량률로 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600, 800 cGy의 선량을 각 1회 조사하였다. 나머지 9개의 실험 군은 동일한 선량(400 cGy)에서 선량률 변화만 주어 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 160, 240, 320, 400 cGy/min의 각 선량률로 1회 조사하였다. 관찰 시 염색체의 개수가 46${\times}$2개 되는지 여부를 확인하고 또한 염색체의 밀도나 염색체 형태가 염색체 이상 빈도 확인에 적합한지 확인한 후 해당되는 경우에 한해서만 계측하였다. 각 표본에서 최소 50개의 림프구를 관찰하려고 하였다. 통계처리는 SPSS를 이용하여 평균값 비교와 회귀곡선의 기울기 값을 구하였다. 결과 : 방사선 조사된 림프구의 관찰된 총 수에 대한 염색체 이상을 가진 림프구의 비율(yield)은 선량이 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600, 800 cGy일 때 각각 0, 9, 20, 27, 55, 88, 100%이었다. 선량변화에 따른 염색체 이상(이동원 및 환형 염색체)의 평균빈도는 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 800 cGy일 때 각각 0.000, 0.093, 0.200, 0.354, 0.612, 2.040, 2.846이었다. 관찰된 총림프구에서 이동원 염색체와 환형 염색체의 빈도(Ydr)는 선량이 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600, m cGy일 때 각각 0.000, 0.093, 0.200, 0.364, 0.613, 2.040, 2.846이었다. 방사선량과 Ydr의 관계는 Ydr=$\alpha$D+$\beta$D$^{2}$에 의한 Liner-quadratic model을 따를 때 Ydr=0.188${\times}$10$^{-2}$ D/Gy+0.422${\times}$10$^{-4}$/Gy$^{2}$${\times}$D$^{2}$로 나타났다. 이동원 염색체와 환형 염색체 이상을 가지는 림프구에서 이동원 염색체와 환형 염색체의 빈도(Qdr)는 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600, 800의 선량일 때 각각 0.000, 1.000, 1.000, 1.333, 1.118, 2.318, 2.846 이었으며 이는 앞의 Ydr값으로부터 구한 값과 거의 일치하였다. 선량율을 각각 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 160, 240, 320, 400 cGy/min으로 달리하여 총 선량을 400 cGy를 각각 조사했을 때 임파구에서 나타난 염색체이상(이동원, 환형, 무동원체단편 염색체)의 빈도의 차는 없었다. 결론 : 방사선의 급성 피폭에 의한 손상은 선량률에 의한 영향은 미미하며 대부분 피폭된 총 선량에 의해 좌우된다. 염색체 이상을 이용한 생물학적 선량측정방법은 피폭 선량이 증가함에 따라 비교적 규칙적으로 증가하므로 피폭 선량 측정을 위한 유용한 방법이라고 생각한다. 그러나 일회 피폭인 급성 피폭 시는 선량률 변화가 보정인자로써 작용하지는 않았다.

  • The present study was conducted for the production of transgenic cloned cows those secrete human lactoferricin into milk by somatic cell nuclear transfer (NT). To estimate detrimental effects of gene transfection on transgenic cloned embryo production, development rates of NT embryos were compared between transfected and non-transfected cumulus and ear fibroblast cells. An expression plasmid for human lactofericin (pbeta-LFC) was constructed by inserting a bovine beta-casein promoter, a green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker gene, and human lactoferricin target gene into a pcDNA3 plasmid. Two bovine somatic cell lines (cumulus cell and ear fibroblast) were established and transfected with the expression plasmid using a liposomal transfection reagent, Fugene6 as a carrier. Cumulus cell and ear fibroblast were transfected at the passage of 2 to 4, trypsinized and GFP-expressing cells were randomly selected and used for somatic cell NT. Developmental competences (rates of fusion, cleavage, and blastocyst formation) in bovine transgenic somatic cell NT embryos reconstructed with non-transfectecd cells were significantly higher than those from transfected cells in cumulus cell and ear fibroblast (P<0.05). This study indicated that transfection of done. cell has detrimental effect on embryo development in bovine transgenic NT.

  • A freshwater bacterium, designated $IMCC1713^T$, was isolated from a highly eutrophic artificial pond. Cells of the strain were Gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic, poly-$\beta$-hydroxybutyrate granule containing and obligately aerobic short rods that were motile with a single polar flagellum. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity analysis showed that the novel strain was most closely related to the species Roseateles depolymerans (96.3%), Mitsuaria chitosanitabida (96.2%), Ideonella dechloratans (96.2%), and Pelomonas saccharophila (96.1%) in the Sphaerotilus-Leptothrix group within the order Burkholderiales. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolate formed an independent monophyletic clade within the order Burkholderiales. The relatively low DNA G+C content (57.4mol%), together with several phenotypic characteristics, differentiated the novel strain from other members of the Sphaerotilus-Leptothrix group. From the taxonomic data, therefore, the strain should be classified as a novel genus and species, for which the name Inhella inkyongensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the proposed species is strain $IMCC1713^T$ (=KCTC $12791^T$=NBRC $103252^T$=CCUG $54308^T$).

  • Non-human primates (NHPs) are confirmed as reservoirs of Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia intestinalis, and Enterocytozoon bieneusi. In this study, 197 fresh fecal samples from 8 NHP species in Qinling Mountains, northwestern China, were collected and examined using multilocus sequence typing (MLST) method. The results showed that 35 (17.8%) samples were positive for tested parasites, including Cryptosporidium spp. (3.0%), G. intestinalis (2.0%), and E. bieneusi (12.7%). Cryptosporidium spp. were detected in 6 fecal samples of Macaca mulatta, and were identified as C. parvum (n=1) and C. andersoni (n=5). Subtyping analysis showed Cryptosporidium spp. belonged to the C. andersoni MLST subtype (A4, A4, A4, and A1) and C. parvum 60 kDa glycoprotein (gp60) subtype IId A15G2R1. G. intestinalis assemblage E was detected in 3 M. mulatta and 1 Saimiri sciureus. Intra-variations were observed at the triose phosphate isomerase (tpi), beta giardin (bg), and glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) loci, with 3, 1, and 2 new subtypes found in respective locus. E. bieneusi was found in Cercopithecus neglectus (25.0%), Papio hamadrayas (16.7%), M. mulatta (16.3%), S. sciureus (10%), and Rhinopithecus roxellana (9.5%), with 5 ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) genotypes: 2 known genotypes (D and BEB6) and 3 novel genotypes (MH, XH, and BSH). These findings indicated the presence of zoonotic potential of Cryptosporidium spp. and E. bieneusi in NHPs in Qinling Mountains. This is the first report of C. andersoni in NHPs. The present study provided basic information for control of cryptosporidiosis, giardiasis, and microsporidiosis in human and animals in this area.

  • Background: Active natural ingredients, especially small molecules, have recently received wide attention as modifiers used to treat neurodegenerative disease by promoting neurogenic regeneration of neural stem cell (NSC) in situ. 20(S)-protopanaxadiol (PPD), one of the bioactive ingredients in ginseng, possesses neuroprotective properties. However, the effect of PPD on NSC proliferation and differentiation and its mechanism of action are incompletely understood. Methods: In this study, we investigated the impact of PPD on NSC proliferation and neuronal lineage differentiation through activation of the Wnt/glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β/β-catenin pathway. NSC migration and proliferation were investigated by neurosphere assay, Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and EdU assay. NSC differentiation was analyzed by Western blot and immunofluorescence staining. Involvement of the Wnt/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway was examined by molecular simulation and Western blot and verified using gene transfection. Results: PPD significantly promoted neural migration and induced a significant increase in NSC proliferation in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, a remarkable increase in anti-microtubule-associated protein 2 expression and decrease in nestin protein expression were induced by PPD. During the differentiation process, PPD targeted and stimulated the phosphorylation of GSK-3β at Ser9 and the active forms of β-catenin, resulting in activation of the Wnt/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway. Transfection of NSCs with a constitutively active GSK-3β mutant at S9A significantly hampered the proliferation and neural differentiation mediated by PPD. Conclusion: PPD promotes NSC proliferation and neural differentiation in vitro via activation of the Wnt/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway by targeting GSK-3β, potentially having great significance for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

  • Levans produced from Microbacterium laevaniformans were isolated, characterized, and fractionated by molecular weight. TLC, HPLC, and GC-MS analyses of the exopolysaccharide showed that it was a fructan-type polymer and was composed of (2,6)- and (2,1)-glycosidic linkages. $^{13}C$-NMR analysis proved that the polysaccharide was mainly a $\beta$-(2,6)-linked levan-type polysaccharide. To investigate the cytotoxicity of the acetone-precipitated levan fractions such as M1, M2, and M3, HepG2, P388D1, U937, SNU-1, and SNUC2A cell lines were screened. Among the cell lines tested, the cytotoxicity of M1- M3 fractions were detected from only SNU-1 and HepG2 cells at the dosage level of $100-800\mu\textrm{g}ml$. The M2 fraction M_r$, 80,000) at 400 $mu{g/ml}$ had the greatest cell growth inhibition (84.6%) on SNU-1, while the M1 $(M_r$, 50,000) at $800\mu\textrm{g}ml$ showed the greatest (46.32%) on HepG2. To obtain more uniform M_r$ fractions of levan, the levan was further fractionated from S1 $(M_r$ 1,000,000) to S5 $(M_r$ 10,000) using gel permeation chromatography. Again, the S1-S5 fractions had strong cytotoxicity on SNU-1 and HepG2 cell lines. The greatest inhibition effects of S4 $(M_r$ 80,000) on SNU-1 and S5 $(M_r$ 10,000) on HepG2 were shown to be 49.5% and 73.0%, respectively. The cytotoxicity of the levan fractions was more effective on SNU-1 than on HepG2. Although the relationship between the Mw and the cytotoxicity was not clear, smaller $M_r$, fractions of levan showed greater growth inhibition effect on the cancer cell lines in general. Therefore, it was indicated that a specific Mw class of levan is responsible for the effective cytotoxicity.

  • Resveratrol은 포도와 같은 식물에서 각종 감염균으로부터 자신의 몸을 보호하기 위하여 생성되는 물질인 phytoalexin의 일종으로 강력한 항산화작용, 암예방 효과 및 항암 작용을 포함한 각종 약리작용을 가진 것으로 보고되어져 오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 resveratrol의 항암작용 기전해석을 위하여 A549 인체폐암세포의 종식에 미치는 resverakol의 영향을 조사하였다. A549 세포의 생존율은 resveratrol의 처리시간 증가에 따라 강력하게 억제되었으며, 이는 암세포의 다양한 형태변형을 동반한 세포주기 C2/M arrest 및 염색질 응축 현상을 동반한 apoptosis 유발에 의한 것임을 알 수 있었다. Resveratrol 처리에 의한 apoptosis 유발은 Bcl-2의 발현변화 없이 Bcl-$X_L$의 발현 감소에 따른 상대적인 Bax의 발현 증가와 Sp-1, PCNA 및 $\beta$-catenin 등과 같은 단백질의 분해 현상과 연관성이 있었다 또한 resveratrol에 의한 A549세포 의 증식억제는 Cdk inhibitor p21의 발현 증가에 따른 Cdks 의 kinase 활성 저하 및 COX-2의 선택적 저해에 따른 PGE2 생성 저하와 관련이 있었다.

  • This study investigated the correlation of the nutritional status of antioxidant vitamins and serum lipids and MDA levels in postmenopausal women. Data about general characteristics, dietary intakes and biochemical parameters, including serum lipids, MDA and antioxidant vitamins levels, were collected from 85 postmenopausal women. The subjects were classified into three groups according to their serum total cholesterol level: normocholesterolemia group (NC, < 200 mg/dL), moderate hypercholesterolemia group (MC, $200{\sim}239mg/dL$) and hypercholesterolemia group(HC, ${\geq}240mg/dL$). The results are as follows. 1) General characteristics and serum MDA levels were not significantly different among the three groups. 2) Daily nutrients intakes adjusted to energy intake were not significantly different among the three groups, and were compatible with dietary reference intakes (DRIs) for Koreans. 3) Dietary Vt. A, ${\beta}-carotene$, Vt. C and Vt. E intake were not significantly different among the groups, while Vt. E intake was positively related with serum TC (r=0.288, p<0.05) and triglyceride (r=0.341, p<0.001) levels. 4) Serum Vt. A level standardized by serum TC level was significantly low and serum Vt. E level was significantly high in the HC group. Serum Vt. E level was positively related with serum TC level (r=0.389, p<0.001). 5) Dietary Vt. E intake was negatively correlated to serum MDA level (r=-0.242 p<0.05). Serum Vt. C and Vt. E levels were also negatively correlated to serum MDA level (r=-0.312, p<0.001 and r=-0.299, p<0.05). When the correlation was analyzed only in the group with hypercholesterolemia, correlation coefficients between the antioxidant vitamin and serum MDA level were higher. We concluded that intakes of antioxidant vitamins can contribute to decreasing the risk of cardiovascular disease by decreasing the oxidative stress of body rather than by controlling serum lipid levels.
