Basal cell tumors from 53 dogs were examined histologically and classified as basal cell adenoma(n=44), granular basal cell adenoma(n=1), basal cell carcinoma(n=3), basosquamous cell adenoma(n=1), basosquamous carcinoma(n=4) on the basis of malignancy and squamous metaplasia. Female was twenty three and male was thirty. Affected dogs are usually 5.6 years and sex predilection have not been seen. None of tumor examined was metastasized into other organs. Distinct patterns identified in the basal cell adenoma are solid(n=15), cystic(n=13), adenoid(n=8), medusa(n=5) and ribbon(n=3). Solid basal cell adenoma is common type in benign basal cell adenoma. Only one neoplasm was granular basal cell adenoma which was characterized by eccentric nucleus and abundant granular cytoplasm. Basal cell carcinoma showed anaplastic appearance histologically and had atypical basaloid epithelial cells and multinucleated giant cells with moderate number of mitotic figures. Both basosquamous cell adenoma and carcinoma had squamous metaplasia.

This paper was carried out to investigate changes in cell wall, cell wall polysaccharides, pectic substances extracted from cell wall of persimmon fruits treated with polygalacturonase and $\beta$-galactosidase in vitro. Degrading degree of cell wall treated with cell wall-degrading enzymes were higher in order polygalacturonase, polygalacturonase+$\beta$-galactosidase and $\beta$-galactosidase. Contents of soluble pectic substances in cell wall treated with cell wall-degrading enzymes showed as the same order as degrading degree of cell wall, while contents of insoluble pectin lower. Contents of versene-soluble pectin and total pectic substance were not affected by cell wall-degrading enzymes. Contents of uronic acid and hexose in soluble material isolated from cell wall treated with polygalacturonase and mixed enzyme were higher than those of untreatment and $\beta$-galactosidase treatment.

This study was purposed to research the anti-cancer effects of Bistortae Rhizoma. A total extract of Bistortae Rhizoma decoction was prepared. By measuring the cell proliferation, apoptosis, morphology and cytokine level from the extracts, the influence on HepG2 cell, SNU-1 cell and A549 cell was compared. The Bistortae Rhizoma decoction extract did not control HepG2 cell proliferation but controlled SNU-1 cell and A549 cell proliferation. In particular, the inhibitory effect on SNU-1 cell proliferation was highest. The Bistortae Rhizoma decoction extract showed to increase the apoptosis of the HepG2 ceil, SNU-1 cell and A549 cell in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, the promotion effect of the apoptosis was highest in SNU-1 cell. Among the various fraction extracts of the Bistortae Rhizoma decoction, n-BuOH extraction showed the greatest increase of the apoptosis of the HepG2 cell. The Bistortae Rhizoma decoction extract decreased dose-dependently the secretion of the TGF-$\beta$ in the HepG2 cell, SNU-1 cell and A549 cell and increased the secretion of the TNF-$\alpha$ and the IFN-$\gamma$. These results suggest that the total extract of Bistortae Rhizoma decoction has anti-cancer effect against SNU-1 cell and A549 cell.

The suitable feeder cell layer is important for culture of embryonic stem (ES) cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of two kinds of the feeder cell, MEF cells and STO cells, layer to mouse ES (mES) cell culture for maintenance of stemness. We compare the colony formations, alkaline phosphatase (AP) activities, expression of pluripotency marker genes and proteins of D3 cell colonies cultured on MEF feeder cell layer (D3/MEF) or STO cell layers (D3/STO) compared to feeder free condition (D3/-) as a control group. Although there were no differences to colony formations and AP activities, interestingly, the transcripts level of pluripotency marker genes, Pou5f1 and Nanog were highly expressed in D3/MEF (79 and 93) than D3/STO (61and 77) or D3/- (65 and 81). Also, pluripotency marker proteins, NANOG and SOX-2, were more synthesized in D3/MEF ($72.8{\pm}7.69$ and $81.2{\pm}3.56$) than D3/STO ($32.0{\pm}4.30$ and $56.0{\pm}4.90$) or D3/- ($55.0{\pm}4.64$ and $62.0{\pm}6.20$). These results suggest that MEF feeder cell layer is more suitable to mES cell culture.

Performance of 20-cell stack for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) was tested at constant temperature. Electrode evaluation used to the stack was tested by the performance of a single cell. A new composite electrode prepared from active carbon cloth and high porous active carbon was developed for hydrophilic layer of the cell. Characteristics of a single cell using the composite electrode showed the current density of $500mA/cm^2$ at the cell voltage of 0.4V at $120^{\circ}C$. For the operating of 20 days. the cell voltage at constant cell current densty of $100mA/cm^2$ was slightly reduced from 0.62V to 0.53V with the cell voltage decay rate of 14.5%. Power of 20-cell stack at 5.3V, $100^{\circ}C$ was about 180W.

There is a great demand to manipulate biological cell autonomously since biologist should spend much time to obtain skillful manipulation techniques. For this purpose, we propose a cell chip to control, carry, fix and locate the cell. In this paper, we focus on the cell rotator to rotate individual biological cell based on a micro fluidics technology. The cell rotator consists of injection hole and rotation well to rotate a biological cell properly. Under the variation of flow rate in injection hole, the angular velocity of a biological cell is evaluated to find the feasibility of the proposed rotation method. As a practical experiment, Zebrafish egg is employed. Based on this research, we find the possibility of non-contact rotation way that can highly reduce the damage of the biological cell during manipulation. To realize an autonomous biological cell manipulation, a cell chip with manipulation well and micro channel in this research will be utilized effectively in near future.

A possible involvement of maturation promoting factor (nfPF) in the two-cell block phenomenon was studied by fusion experiments. Germinal vesicle (GlF) ooeyte was fused with a blastomore from late or blocked 2-cell mouse embryos. and germinal vesicle breakdoum (GVBD) of fused GV oocvtes in the presence of dbcAMP (100$\mu$g/ml) was scored as an index of MPF aniviD. GnD was induced approximately 30% by fusion of a blastomere derived from late 2-cell embryos, but not from blocked 2-cell embryos. The rate of GVBD was changed when GV oocyte was fused with a blastomere from late 2-cell embryos which were treated with u-amanitin, puromvcin or colcemid before and after hsion: Treatment of late 2-cell embryos with puromycin (50 Is/mll but not with u-amanitin (100 Is/ml) clearly inhibited GVBD, indicating that do novo protein synthesis maw be required for the appearance of MPF activity in late 2-cell embryos. Treatment of late 2-cell embryos w기h colcemid (0.1 Is/mll doubled GVBD, presumably due to the maintenance of metaphase or mitotic phase. SDS-PAGE and twoiimensional electrophoresis revealed that there was no difference in protein synthetic pattern in late and blocked 2-cell embryos, but three phosphoproteins with 27, 35 and 46 M)a, presumsblv M-phase components were phosphorylated in late 2-cell embryos but not in blocked 2-cell embryos. It seems then that MPF activity is closely related to phosphorylstion of M-phase components in late 2-cell embryos.

BAY11-7082 was initially found to be an anti-inflammatory drug with NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitory property. In this study, we evaluated modulatory function of BAY11-7082 on U937 cell-cell adhesion induced by CD29 (${\beta}1$-integrins). BAY11-7082 strongly blocked functional activation of CD29 (${\beta}1$-integrins), as assessed by cell-cell adhesion assay. However, this compound did not block a simple activation of CD29, as assessed by cell-fibronectin adhesion assay. In particular, to understand molecular mechanism of BAY11-7082-mediated inhibition, the regulatory roles of CD29-induced actin cytoskeleton rearrangement under cell-cell adhesion and surface level of CD29 were examined using confocal and flow cytometic analysis. Interestingly, this compound strongly suppressed the molecular association of actin cytoskeleton with CD29 at cell-cell adhesion site. Moreover, BAY11-7082 also diminished surface levels of CD29 as well as its-associated adhesion molecule CD147, but not other adhesion molecules such as CD18 and CD43. Therefore, our data suggest that BAY11-7082 may be involved in regulating immune responses managed by CD29-mediated cell-cell adhesion.
