글루타메이트 수용체는 신경연접의 발달에서 신경연접과 정제 등에 중요한 역할을 한다. 포유류 청각뇌줄기의 가쪽위올리브 핵-안쪽마름섬유체핵 신경연접에서의 흥분성 신경전달물질의 전달은 글루타메이트와 같은 많은 흥분성 신경전달물질의 전달을 조절하므로 발생학적 연구에 매우 유용한 모델이다. 귀먹음은 흥분성 회로 또는 억제성 회로의 신경연접에서 신경전달물질들의 변화뿐 아니라 형태학적 변화도 초래하게 된다. 이런 이유로 선천적으로 태어나면서 달팽이 기관이 퇴화되는 선회생쥐는 귀먹음의 병태생리를 연구하는데 가장 좋은 동물모델이다. 그러나, 선회생쥐에서 이런 NMDA 수용체 각각의 아형들이 발달에 따라 어떻게 나타나는지에 관해서는 거의 알려진 사실이 없다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 선천적으로 속귀에 돌연변이를 가진 선회생쥐를 이용하여 면역조직화학염색법으로 생후 7일과 16일의 쥐를 정상쥐와 비교해서 글루타메이트성의 흥분성 신호가 전달되는 청각뇌줄기의 가쪽위올리브핵(LSO)에서 N-메틸-D-아스파르 트산염(NMDA) 수용체의 아형인 NR1, NR2A, NR2B의 분포를 각각 조사하였다. 생후 7일째 선회생쥐의 NR1에 대한 면역반응성의 세기는 정상군에서 $128.67\pm8.87$로 나타났고 이형접합체에서는 $111.06\pm8.04$, 동형접합체에서는 $108.09\pm5.94$으로 나타났다. 그리고 생후 16일째 선회생쥐에서는 정상군에서 $43.83\pm10.49$, 이형접합체에서는 $40\pm13.88$, 동형접합체에서는 $55.96\pm17.35$으로 나타났다. 생후 7일째 선회생쥐의 NR2A에 대한 면역반응성의 세기는 정상군에서 $97.97\pm9.71$, 이형접합체에서 $102.87\pm9.30$, 동형접합체에서 $106.85\pm5.79$로 나타났다. 생후 16일 선회생쥐의 가쪽위올리브핵에서의 NR2A에 대한 면역반응성 세기는 정상군에서 $47.4\pm20.6$, 이형접합체에서 $43.9\pm17.5$, 동형접합체에서 $49.2\pm20.1$로 나타났다. 생후 7일의 선회생쥐의 NR2B의 면역반응성 세기는 정상군에서 $109.04\pm6.77$, 이형접합체에서 $106.43\pm10.24$, 동형접합체에서 $105.98\pm4.10$으로 나타났다. 생후 16일째 선회생쥐의 NR2B의 면역반응성의 세기는 정상군에서 $101.47\pm11.50$, 이형접합체에서 $91.47\pm14.81$, 동형접합체에서 $93.93\pm15.71$으로 나타났다. 이 결과들은 생후 7일과 16일의 선회생쥐의 가쪽위올리브핵에서 NMDA 수용체의 면역반응성의 변화를 나타낸 것으로 인간 귀먹음의 주요한 병태생리를 파악하는 데 기본적인 자료를 제시할 수 있을 것이다.

Woman in Choson era had various kind of accdssories like rings, ear ring, ornamentak hairpins and so on. Among them their favorite was the Norigae, the pendent trinket. With the embroidered ornament at its center, beads and knots were attached to the upper and lower part, and it was hung with a tassel. It was carried on the string of the Chogori. norigae oreginated in waist string of Three Countries era(Sills, Paekje and Koguryo) ; had been changed with the development of fashion, embroidery and the influence of Buddhistic culture. The differences between Embroidered Norigae and Norigae are following. If the ornament at its center is made of such jewels as gold, silver, jade and the like, it is called Norigae. But if the ornament at its center is made of the embroidered Norigae. Such a Embroidered Norigae in which perfume was contained, was as a perfume box or a perfume bag and was carried on the strings of Chogori by Danjak(single work). The Differences between ancient Embroidered Norigae of late Choson era and modern Embroidered Norigae are Following; 1) The type of main body-the embroidered ornament at its center was mainly embroidered with the shape of animals in both of ancient Embroidered Norigae was usually formes like a bat and that of modern Embroidered Norigae like butterfly. 2) plants were adapted as the main design of ancient Embroidered Norigae, but plants and animals as that of modern Embroidered Norigae. 3) The colors of the background and the design are usually red in both ancient and modern Embroidered norigae. 4) The tassels of ancient Embroidered Norigae were mode in the shape of srick and a strawberry. but the tassels of modern Embroidered Norigae were mainly made in the shape of a stick. 5) Nowadays the beauty of external form is considered more important while the symbol of main body was considered more important in Choson era. 6) The role of Thidon in the composition of Embroidered Norigae is declined and a lot of main bodies are used in modern Embroidered Norigae. 7) Modern Korean people are apt to choose Embroidered Norigae depending upon the design of main body and the traditional Korean beauty. 8) Modern people who desire to get new thing, try to make the design of main body various. As their cognition of Korean tradition is of the increase, the restoration of ancient Embroidered Norigae to its original form has been accom

To overcome the hyperacute immune rejection during pig-to-non-human primates xenotranasplantation, we have produced and bred ${\alpha}$-1,3-galactosyltransferase knock-out ($GalT^{-/-}$) pigs. In this study, the somatic cells and tissues from the $GalT^{-/-}$ pigs were characterized by an analysis of the expression of Gal${\alpha}$-1,3-Gal (${\alpha}-Gal$) epitope. Briefly, ear fibroblast cell lines of 19 homozygous $GalT^{-/-}$ pigs were established and cryopreserved. The expression of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope in the cells was measured by fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis using BS-I-B4 lectin. Also, the homozygous ($GalT^{-/-}$) cells and tissues samples were immunostained with BS-I-B4 lectin for analysis of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope expression. The results showed that the expression of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope in $GalT^{-/-}$ cells (0.2 %) were significantly (p<0.05) down-regulated to the range of cynomolgus monkey fibroblast (0.2 %) cells compared to heterozygous ($GalT^{-/+}$) (9.3 %) and wild type ($GalT^{+/+}$) (93.7 %) fibroblast cells. In the immunostaining results, while the expression of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope was detected a partly in $GalT^{-/+}$ cells and mostly in $GalT^{+/+}$ cells, it was almost not detected in the $GalT^{-/-}$ cells. Also, immunostaining results from various tissues of the $GalT^{-/-}$ pig showed that the expression of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope was not detectable, whereas various tissues from $GalT^{+/+}$ pig showed a strong expression of ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope. Our results demonstrated that ${\alpha}-Gal$ epitope expressions from $GalT^{-/-}$ pigs were successfully knocked out to prevent hyperacute immune rejection for further study of xenotransplantation.

Bamboo salt has been used for the purpose of prevention and treatment of various diseases in Korea. Present study was carried out to ascertain the effects of purple bamboo salt upon anti-allergic effect, anti-inflammatory activity and immune-enhance effect as well. Purple bamboo salt significantly inhibited the ear swelling response and histamine release induced by compound 48/80 in mice and rat peritoneal mast cells. Purple bamboo salt (0.01 ∼ lg/kg) also dose-dependently inhibited the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis by oral administration. Purple bamboo salt (1 mg/mL) in hibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate plus calcium ionophore A23187-stimulated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$, interleukin (IL)-1${\beta}$ and IL-6 secretion, by 67.04${\pm}$0.08%, 68.01${\pm}$1.85%, 69.48${\pm}$0.54%, respectively. In addition, purple bamboo salt inhibited the expression of TNF-${\alpha}$ mRNA in HMC-1 cells. Finally, we investigated the effect of purple bamboo salt in the forced swimming test (FST) and the change of purple bamboo salt-mediated cytokine production from MOLT-4 cells. At the 7th, immobility time was significantly decreased in the purple bamboo salt-administration group (35.4 ${\pm}$5.9 s for 1 g/kg) in comparison with the control group (93.2 ${\pm}$ 15.45). After FST, the content of glucose in the blood serum was increased and the levels of blood urea nitrogen, lactic dehydrogenase was decreased in purple bamboo salt-administration group. However, it had no effect on the elevation of CK and TP level. Purple bamboo salt (1 mg/mL) significantly increased the interferon (IFN)-${\gamma}$ and IL-2 level compared with media control (about 3.7-fold for IFN-${\gamma}$, about 3.5-fold for IL-2, p〈0.05) but did not affect the IL-4.

Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) is a general, chronic, inflammatory and auto-immune disease and it can lead to joint edema, pain, stiffness which are caused by an inflammation in synovium covering our joints. Ulmus davidiana Planchon is a traditional herb used for the treatment on various inflammations, gastrointestinal trouble, ENT(ear, nose, and throat) disease, edema, cancer etc. and it works effectively on arthritis as well. In these study to search for the treatment efficacy of Ulmus davidiana Planchon in RA, I measure manifestation of cytokine gene in synoviocyte treated with Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture and in EL-4 cell, manifestation of cytokine gene cell related to T-cell. And after Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture treatment in Collagen induced arthritis(CIA) which has been known by a general model of RA, DBA mice, I observed foot thickness, general shape of synovium, early cytokine induce CIA and, generation and mutation of cytokine related to the control of T-cell specialization. It comes to conclusion as belows. 1. In synovium treated with Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture, there was the decrease in MIF mRNA does-dependently. Incase of CIA mice treated with Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture, there were the decrease in the damage in synovium and generation of the MIF which is related to induction of the early RA cytokine and IL-6 proinflammatory cytokine. 2. In case of EL-4 treated with Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture, there were decrease in the manifestation of the IL-2 mRNA, but the increase in the manifestation of the IL-4 does-dependently. 3. In the synovium of CIA mice treated with Ulmus davidiana Planchon herbal acupuncture, there were the decrease in generation of IL-2, IL-12 and CD-28, but the increase in generation of IL-4. These result suggest that Ulmus davidiana Planchon can block the process of the early RA by Inhibiting MIF activation, and mitigate Rheumatoid Arthritis by controlling Tcell specialization.

Distraction osteogenesis(DO) is a surgical method of bone formation that involves an osteotomy and sequential stretching of the healing callus by gradual movement and subsequent remodeling. DO is used to correct facial asymmetry, such as in patients with hemifacial microsomia, maxillary or mandibular retrusion, cleft lip and palate, alveolar defects, and craniofacial deficiency. It is accomplished with the aid of a distraction device, which is secured with screws placed directly into bone, for a predetermined length of time. Hemifacial microsomia is characterized by unilateral facial hypoplasia, often with unilateral shortening of the mandible and subsequent malocclusion. Patients with hemifacial microsomia and facial asymmetry have a vertically short maxilla, tilted occlusal plane, and short mandible. Early treatment is necessary to avoid subsequent impaired midfacial growth. The standard treatment of these malformations consists of the application of bone grafts, which can lead to unpredictable growth. The new bone-lengthening procedure represents a limited surgical intervention and opens up a new perspective for treatment, especially in younger children with severe deformities. This report describes a case of hemifacial microsomia(Type-II left-sided hemifacial microsomia). The patient, a 10-year-old child, visited our clinic for facial asymmetry correction. He had a hypoplastic mandible, displaced ear lobe, 10 mm canting on the right side, and malocclusion. We planned DO to lengthen the left mandible in conjunction with a Le Fort I osteotomy for decanting and then perform a right intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy(IVRO). Progressive distraction at a rate of 0.5 mm/12 hours was initiated 7 days postoperatively. The duration of DO was 17 days. The consolidation period was 3 months. Satisfactory results were obtained in our case, indicating that DO can be used successfully for functional, aesthetic reconstruction of the mandible. We report a case involving DO in conjunction with orthognathic surgery for correcting mandibular hypoplasia with a review of the literature.

본 연구의 목적은 운전상황에서 운전자의 스트레스가 유발되었을 시, 다감각 자극이 운전자의 스트레스 저감 효과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 운전상황의 운전자의 스트레스를 저감을 목적으로 조명과 사운드 및 향의 조합을 통한 다감각 자극을 제시함으로써, 스트레스 저감에 대한 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 운전 시 스트레스 상황을 정의하고, 두 종류의 스트레스 유발 시나리오를 구성하였다. 실험은 신체 건강한 20-50대 남녀 30명을 대상으로, 10분간의 운전 상황을 연출하였다. 스트레스 저감에 효과적인 자극조합을 확인하기 위해 시각, 청각, 후각의 자극을 이용하였으며, 시각 자극의 경우 LED 조명을 이용하여 블루, 그린, 옐로우 색상을 제시하였으며, 청각 자극은 화이트, 핑크, 브라운노이즈 사운드를, 후각 자극의 경우는 로즈마리, 라벤더, 레몬향을 각각 사용하였다. 또한, 스트레스 저감에 대한 효과를 살펴보기 위해, 다감각 자극 제시 전후로 주관평가 및 심박변이도를 측정하였다. 심장 반응의 결과, 그린(조명), 핑크노이즈(사운드), 로즈마리(향)의 자극 조합에서 HF(%) 증가 및 LF(%), LF/HF(%)의 감소를 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 부교감반응의 활성화가 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다. 주관평가 또한 다감각 자극에 노출되었을 때, 다감각 자극이 없는 경우보다 스트레스 저감 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 다감각 자극에 노출되기 전보다 다감각자극을 경험할 때 운전시 스트레스 저감에 효과를 보이는 것으로 사료된다. 향후 연령별이나 성별에 대한 차이나 개인이 선호하는 자극에 대한 연구를 통해 맞춤형 스트레스 저감 자극에 대한 효과를 확인하는 것이 필요하다.
