대장균을 이용한 재조합 인체 인터루킨-2(IL_2) 생산의 최적화를 위하여 발효조건이 세포성장과 IL-2의 생산 및 재조합 세포의 안정성 등에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 복합배지의 경우에는 yeast extract, peptone, corn steep liquor 등이 재조합 세포성장에 좋은 효과를 나타내었다. 재조합 세포의 안정성은 IL-2 발현 억제 조건(3$0^{\circ}C$)에서는 안정하게 유지되었으나 IL-2 생산조건(42$^{\circ}C$)에서는 selection pressure를 주었을 때조차도 현격하게 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 한편 배양배지에 항생제를 첨가한 경우에도 안정성 유지에는 별로 도움이 되지 못하고 세포성장만 억제됨을 알 수 있었다. 유전자의 발현은 대수 증식 중기에서 유도했을 때가 IL-2 생산에 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났으며 IL-2 생산은 세포성장과 플라스미르내의 다른 유전자들의 발현을 상당히 저해시킴을 알 수 있었다.

Polymer brush is a soft material unit tethered covalently on the surface of scaffolds. It can induce functional and structural modification of a substrate's properties. Such surface coating approach has attracted special attentions in the fields of stem cell biology, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine due to facile fabrication, usability of various polymers, extracellular matrix (ECM)-like structural features, and in vivo stability. Here, we summarized polymer brush-based grafting approaches comparing self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-based coating method, in addition to physico-chemical characterization techniques for surfaces such as wettability, stiffness/elasticity, roughness, and chemical composition that can affect cell adhesion, differentiation, and proliferation. We also reviewed recent advancements in cell biological applications of polymer brushes by focusing on stem cell differentiation and 3D supports/implants for tissue formation. Understanding cell behaviors on polymer brushes in the scale of nanometer length can contribute to systematic understandings of cellular responses at the interface of polymers and scaffolds and their simultaneous effects on cell behaviors for promising platform designs.

Cell migration is one of the essential mechanisms responsible for complex biological processes. Intensive researches have begun to elucidate the mechanisms and search intriguing conditions for efficient control of cell migration. One general mechanism which is widely applicable for cells including neutrophil, Escherichia coli and endothelial cell is chemotaxis. Especially, understanding the chemotactic mechanics of cell crawling has important implications for various medical and biological applications. The single cell study for chemotaxis has an advantage over studies with the population of cells in providing a clearer observation of cell migration, which leads to more accurate assessments of chemotaxis. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional model considering a single crawling cell to study its chemotaxis. The semi-implicit Fourier spectral method is applied for high efficiency and numerical stability. The simulation results reveal rich dynamics of cell.

Degraded data stability, weaker write ability, and increased leakage power consumption are the primary concerns in scaled static random-access memory (SRAM) circuits. Two new SRAM cells are proposed in this paper for achieving enhanced read data stability and lower leakage power consumption in memory circuits. The bitline access transistors are asymmetrically gate-underlapped in the proposed SRAM cells. The strengths of the asymmetric bitline access transistors are weakened during read operations and enhanced during write operations, as the direction of current flow is reversed. With the proposed hybrid asymmetric SRAM cells, the read data stability is enhanced by up to 71.6% and leakage power consumption is suppressed up to 15.5%, while displaying similar write voltage margin and maintaining identical silicon area as compared to the conventional memory cells in a 15 nm FinFET technology.

Synchronized cat kidney cells chronically infected with feline leukemia virus (FeLV) were used to study virus production, the synthesis of group specific antigen (gag) and envelope (env) proteins, the expression of env protein on the cell surface during the cell cycle, and the stability of viral RNA. As detecting method, we developed the radioimmunoassay (RIA) system using beta-emission of $^{131}I$ and demonstrated the validity of this system by comparison with routine RIA system using gamma-emission of $^{125}I$. The produced virus was analysed by developed RIA interval was determined by measuring reverse transcriptase activity. The results show that infected cells produce the complete virus particle containing products of gag, env and pol genes of FeLV, and maximum virus production occurs during mitosis of synchronized cells. Labeling of the cell surface of synchronized cells with $^{131}I$ shows that the amount of $gp70^{env}$ on the cell surface parallels cellular gorwth. Therefore, the cell cycle-dependent release of virus is not petition RIA of synchronized cells with $^{131}I$ labeled viral proteins synthesis during the cell cycle. The rate of synthesis of gag protein shows three peaks, corresponding to the $G_1,\;late\;S\;and\;late\;G_2$ phases of cell cycle. But the rate of synthesis of env protein dose not change, suggesting that in these cells the synthesis of these two gene products in controlled seperately. In Actionomycin D treated cells, the synthesis of viral proteins decreased sharply from 8 hours after treatment, and the late S and $G_2$ peaks of gag protein synthesis were disappeared. This shows the stability of viral RNA for about 6 hours in the absence of continuing viral RNA synthesis.

In this work, the effects of different sintering inhibitors added to $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}MnO_{3-{\partial}}$ (LSM) were studied to obtain an optimum cathode material for cathode-supported type of Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) in terms of phase stability, mechanical strength, electric conductivity and porosity. Four different sintering inhibitors of $Al_2O_3$, $CeO_2$, NiO and gadolinium doped ceria (GDC) were mixed with LSM powder, sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ and then they were evaluated. The phase stability, sintering behavior, electrical conductivity, mechanical strength and microstructure were evaluated in order to assess the performance of the mixture powder as cathode support material. It has been found that the addition of $Al_2O_3$ undesirably decreased the electrical conductivity of LSM; other sintering inhibitors, however, showed sufficient levels of electrical conductivity. GDC and NiO addition showed a promising increase in mechanical strength of the LSM material, which is one of the basic requirements in cathode-supported designs of fuel cells. However, NiO showed a high reactivity with LSM during high temperature ($1300^{\circ}C$) sintering. So, this study concluded that GDC is a potential candidate for use as a sintering inhibitor for high temperature sintering of cathode materials.

Klyyveromyces marxianus exoinulinase를 Saccharomyces cerevisiae에서 구성적으로 과발현 생산하기 위해, 구성적 promoter인 GAPDH, ADH1, PGK 및 ENOI promoters 하류에 exoinulinase 유전자 (INUI)의 ORF를 in frame으로 연결한 각각의 plasmi에 YIGP, pADHI,-INU, pPGK-INU 및 pENO-INU 를 구축하였다. 이들 각 plasmid를함유한 형질전환주 4종을 포도당 농도 5% 배지에서 회분배양한 결과 균체증식은 promoter에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지 않았지만 exoinulinase 발현수준과 plasmid 안정성은 사용한 promoter 에 크게 좌우되었다. 즉 exoinulinase 발현수준은 GAPDH PGK ADH1 ENO1 promoter 각각 1.70, 1.67 1.29, 0.80 unit/ml 였으며 plasmid 안정성은 GAPDH promoter 계의 55%를 제외하고 모두 80%이상으로 높게 나타났다. 이상의 plasmid 안정성과 exoinulinae 발현수준을 고려하여 ADH1 및 PGK 발현계를 선정하여 유가배양하였다 Yeast extract와 포도당을 간헐적으로 공급한 유가배양 결과, 두 발현계에서 약 30 g-DCW/1의 균체농도를 얻었지만, ADHI promoter 계에서는 3.70 unit/ml 의 최대 exoinulinase 활성과 96%의 plasmid 안정성을 보여TRh 반면에 PGK promoter 계는 각각 2.70 unit/ml/와 80%를 나타내었다. 따라서 plasmid 안정성과 긴 배양시간을 고려할 때 비선택적 영양배지를 사용하는 고농도세포 유가배양에서 ADH1 promoter가 exoinulinase 의 구성적 과발현, 생산에 더 적합할 것으로 사료된다.

Among the various solar-hydrogen production techniques a combination of a photovoltaic (PV) and an electrolytic cell into one single system, a monolithic PV-electrolytic cell, has been suggested as a promising one in terms of efficiency and stability. In this mini-review, we describe our recent efforts on the fabrication of the monolithic PV-electrolytic cell. Particularly, we focus on the electrocatalysts for water oxidation and its fabrication method suitable for a monolithic PV-electrolytic cell. We also introduce proto-type devices with a dye-sensitized solar cell module and an InGaP/GaAs photoelectrodes.

This paper proposes the hybrid fuel cell system that can solve disadvantages of existing fuel cell system and ensure high reliability and high stability. The system consists of PEM fuel cell, Ni-MH battery and power management system. In this system, when the power provided from the fuel cell is higher than the load power, the extra energy may be used to charge the Ni-MH battery. When the fuel cell can not provide enough energy to the load, the shortage of energy will be supplied by the Ni-MH battery. Experimental results show that the output voltage is regulated well during load variations. Also, high system efficiency is achieved.
