This experiments was designed to observe the effect of period and dose of ingestion of grapes on renal failure in dog. After the dogs had been mixed of general feed, raisins from U.S.A and fresh grapes from Chile selling in Korea. We observed the clinical sign, and analyzed the blood and urine using by biochemical test. The experiment was executed by the two following groups. The experiment group 1. derived renal failure by supplying the mixed general feed with fresh grapes and dry grapes 15 g per weight kg, 2 times a day (AM 09, PM 21), the experiment group 2. executed to derive renal failure by supplying the mixed general feed with fresh grapes and dry grapes 40 g per weight kg, 2 times a day. Extraction of blood for analysis was conducted one time a day and clinical test for renal failure was executed by means of a blood analysis, biochemical analysis, urine analysis, excretory urography (E.U) and E.R.D-$screen^{TM}$ urine test (Heska, USA). The results of group 1 were normal ranges (BUN 9.0~22.6 mg/dl, creatinine 0.8~1.2 mg/dl, Ca 9.7~12.3 mg/dl, Pi 2.9~4.6 mg/dl), renal failure was not observed. On the 3rd day in group 2, azotemia was arisen from the increasing BUN 83 mg/dl (7~25 mg/dl), creatinine 2.3 mg/dl (0.5~1.4 mg/dl), when executed urine was tested by E.R.D-$screen^{TM}$ test using in the early kidney disease diagnosis, microalbumine state was high positive, and it showed stale delay by using excretory urography (EU). This study demonstrated that acute renal failure by grapes and raisins dependent on food dose, and specific characters of individual.

Canine adenovirus type 2 (CAV-2) infection results in significant respiratory illness in dogs. Isolating and culturing CAV-2 allows for investigations into its pathogenesis and the development of vaccines and diagnostic assays. In this study, we successfully isolated a virus from a naturally infected dog in Gyeonggi-do, Korea. The virus was propagated in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and Vero cells and showed a specific cytopathic morphology that appeared similar to a bunch of grapes. The virus was first confirmed as CAV-2 based on these cytopathic effects, an immunofluorescence assay, hemagglutination assay, and electron microscopy. The viral titer of the isolate designated APQA1601 reached $10^{6.5}$ 50% tissue culture infections dose per mL in MDCK cells and exhibited no hemagglutination units with erythrocytes from guinea pig. The virus was also confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and next-generation sequencing. The APQA1601 strain had the highest similarity (~99.9%) with the Toronto A26/61 strain, which was isolated in Canada in 1976 when the nucleotide sequences of the full genome of the APQA1601 strain were compared with those of other CAV strains. Isolating CAV-2 will help elucidate the biological properties of CAV-2 circulating in Korean dogs.

Selectin은 조직 염증반응의 초기화에 관여하는 결합 단백질이며, 맥관내피에서 백혈구의 rolling과 tethering을 매개한다. 따라서 selectin inhibitor를 이용하여, 이들 selectin의 수용체인 sLex 에 대한 block을 유도함으로서 염증반응의 초기화를 억제할 수 있다는 가정하에, 본 연구에서는 장기이식 후 reperfusion에서 발생하는 손상에 대한 selectin inhibitor의 효과를 알아보았다. Beagle 견을 사용하여 신장이식을 실시하였다 공여 신장은 60분의 warm ischemia를 유도한 후 UW solution으로 관류하고 24시간동안 냉장보관하여 자가이식하였으며, 반대쪽 신장은 적출하였다. 술 후 7일동안 혈청 creatinine치를 측정하였다 2차실험으로, 12마리의 Beagle견을 사용하여 4시간의 reperfusion 후 조직학적 변화와 myeloperoxidase의 활성을 조사하였다. 각 실험의 대조군은 생리 식염수를,비교군은 TBC1269 (selectin inhibitor)를 신장 적출 전과 신장이식 수술 후 reperfusion 직전에 각각 투여하였다. 혈청 creatinine은 신장이식후 급격히 증가 하였으나, 두군 사이에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 신장피질의 백혈구 침윤은, 4시간 reperfusion후 생리식염수를 투여받은 군에서 2배의 유의적인 증가를 보였다. 그러나, TBC 1269로 처리한 군에서는 백혈구의 침윤이 유의적인 억제를 보였으며, 허혈에의한 조직학적 변화도 유의적으로 적었다. 개의 신장이식 수술에서 Selectin의 차단은 warm renal ischemia에서 기인된 손상을 개선하지는 못하나, 백혈구의 침윤을 억제하므로 delayed graft function과 관련된 술 후 염증반응의 초기화를 억제하는 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

This study was carried out to show at the fractal analysis complements the practical disadvantage of gray level histogram which is designed to measure the quantitative classification of echo patterns in ultrasonographic image of parenchymal organs such as spleen and kidney and it is a practical method of measurement for quantitative classification. By using ultrasonographs, kidney and spleen of 21 healthy Beagles were fixed under different gain settings to be scanned for echo patterns and results were analyzed with body gray level histogram and fractal analysis. Then it was compared based on the statistical data obtained. Although there was a proportionate increase in histogram along with gain settings, there were consistencies in the fractal dimension. In terms of quantitative analysis in ultrasonographic images, fractal analysis is concluded to complement the practical disadvantage of gray level histogram.

This study was performed to validate the procedure of transarterial embolization of the renal artery (TAE-RA) and sclerotherapy of renal pelvis using iohexol-ethanol solution in dogs with unilateral experimental hydronephrosis. Experimental hydronephrosis was induced by unilateral ureter ligation for 20 days in five Beagle dogs. Renal artery embolization with iohexol-ethanol solution was performed using selective catheterization technique in the hydronephrotic kidney and sclerotherapy was done by injection of the iohexol-ethanol solution through percutaneously placed pig-tail catheter. EKG, $SpO_2$ body temperature, pulse, and respiratory rate were within normal ranges during procedures. Average pure ethanol dose for renal artery embolization was $1.1\pm0.3ml/kg$. Renal artery embolization was confirmed by the detection of no blood flow signal at the interlobar and arcuate artery using color Doppler ultrasonography. There were no dogs expired after TAE-RA and sclerotherapy and no side effects associated with regurgitation of iohexol-ethanol solution. The value of BUN, creatinine, ALT, AST, Ca, P in five dogs were within normal range during the experiment period. Ultrasonographically, the mean longitudinal and transverse length and the depth of the embolized kidney significantly decreased at 28 days after TAE-RA. We may conclude that TAE-RA and sclerotherapy with iohexol-ethanol solution is an effective methods for the treatment of unilateral hydronephrosis in dogs.

AU-164 was synthesized as a reversible gastric $H^+/K^+$ ATPase inhibitor, and its effects were tested in various systems. AU-164 inhibited rabbit gastric $H^+/K^+$ ATPase with an $IC_{50}$/ of 9 $\mu$M. On the other hand, AU-164 was a weak inhibitor for dog kidney $Na^+/K^+$ ATPasc, indicating the selectivity for gastric $H^+/K^+$ ATPase. The reversible property of the AU-164-induced inhibition of $H^+/K^+$ ATPase was confirmed by filtering the inhibition mixture through Sephadex G-25M column. In vivo basal acid secretion was also inhibited by AU-164 under the pylorus ligation of Sprague-Dawley rats. In addition, AU-164 protected dose dependently gastric lesion induced by ethanol in rats. The $ED_{50}$ value of 62 mg/kg p.o was estimated. These results suggest that AU-164 is a potent, selective and reversible gastric $H^+/K^+$ ATPase inhibitor, and that AU-164 has a potential use for the clinical therapeutics of peptic ulcer disease.

The eukaryotic elongation factor 1 A (EEF1A) participates in protein synthesis by forming the eEF1A GTP tRNA complex to deliver aminoacyl-tRNA to the A site of ribosomes. This study described cDNA sequences and partial genomic structure of porcine EEF1A1. The porcine EEF1A1 gene encoded a protein with 462 amino acids, which shared complete homology with human, chimpanzee and dog. The temporal expression pattern showed the diversity of EEF1A1 level in mRNA was relatively minor in prenatal embryo skeletal muscle, however, the expression decreased during aging after birth in skeletal muscle of the Chinese Tongcheng pig. The spatial expression patterns indicated that the gene expressed in skeletal muscle, heart, lung, liver, kidney, fat and spleen. In addition, we assigned the gene to porcine chromosome 1 using a radiation hybrid panel.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the possibility of application of pediatric hemodialysis system to dogs weighing less than 6 kg. Six healthy dogs (B .W, 3-6 kg) were used_ Experimental end-stage renal failure was induced by bilateral nephrectomy or bilateral ligation of ure-ters. Hemodialysis was performed when blood urea nitrogen (BUN) value increased over 90 mg/dl and every other day thereafter. Daily investigated parameters included clinical clinical signs such as vomiting, fecal appearance and activity and laboratory data such as PCV, WBC, RBC, BUN, creatinine, Ca, P, $Na^+ Cl^-and K^+$During hemodialysis treatment, BUN and creatinine values were measured hourly. Severe vomiting and inappetence were shown 2 days after infliction of kidney disorder and melena and mucous faces were observed 3 days. The signs were not corrected by hemodialysis treatment. Avel- age hemodialysis treatment time was $5.5 {\times} 0.7$,/TEX> hours until BUN value decreased to normal range. Abnor- mal hematological and electrolytes values were reduced within normal levels after hemodialysis treatments. The complications oft hemodialysis included vomiting, nausea, obstruction of intravascular catheter, tremor, seizure, temporary visual loss and continued decrease in PCV It is suggested that pediatric hemedialysis system can be applied to acute renal failure and acute toxicity. Further works on improvements in maintaining patency of catheter and in managing the complications of hemo- dialysis should be conducted.
