  • Purpose: In dental avulsion, delayed replantation usually has an uncertain prognosis. After tooth replantation, complex inflammatory responses promote a return to periodontal tissue homeostasis. Various types of cytokines are produced in the inflammatory microenvironment, and these cytokines determine the periodontal tissue response. This study aimed to identify the gene expression profiles of replanted teeth and evaluate the functional differences between immediate and delayed replantation. Methods: Maxillary molars from Sprague-Dawley rats were extracted, exposed to a dry environment, and then replanted. The animals were divided into 2 groups according to the extra-oral time: immediate replantation (dry for 5 minutes) and delayed replantation (dry for 60 minutes). Either 3 or 7 days after replantation, the animals were sacrificed. Periodontal soft tissues were harvested for mRNA sequencing. Hallmark gene set enrichment analysis was performed to predict the function of gene-gene interactions. The normalized enrichment score (NES) was calculated to determine functional differences. Results: The hallmark gene sets enriched in delayed replantation at 3 days were oxidative phosphorylation (NES=2.82, Q<0.001) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) signaling via the nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathway (NES=1.52, Q=0.034). At 7 days after delayed replantation, TNF-α signaling via the NF-κB pathway (NES=-1.82, Q=0.002), angiogenesis (NES=-1.66, Q=0.01), and the transforming growth factor-beta signaling pathway (NES=-1.46, Q=0.051) were negatively highlighted. Conclusions: Differentially expressed gene profiles were significantly different between immediate and delayed replantation. TNF-α signaling via the NF-κB pathway was marked during the healing process. However, the enrichment score of this pathway changed in a time-dependent manner between immediate and delayed replantation.

  • The new social reality emerging amid the global rise of communication links and integration processes acutely emphasizes the problems of communication in large and small social systems. The method of their communication becomes one of the keys to ensuring global security. It has become the mission of humanitarian education to prepare the younger generations for life in a changing world with no image of the future and increasing uncertainty. In psychological and pedagogical research, there is a growing scientific interest in the problems of interaction of the individual with the social environment. The mental trace of a person's practice in society shapes the experience of social interaction, which constitutes simultaneously the source, tool, and condition for the emergence and development of personality. The study outlines the methodological foundations for the study of individual experiences of social interaction. A hypothesis about the productivity of the functional matrix method is tested. Materials for the training of specialists in the humanities include interdisciplinary approaches to the study and transformation of the experience of social interaction and systematic methodology for the study of complex objects. Fundamental to the study is the systematic-dialectical method, and the matrix method is employed as the instrumental-technological method. The paper presents the results of a multidisciplinary overview of scientific literature concerning the essential characteristics and functions of social interaction and the respective experience. The overview points to the fragmented nature of scientific understanding of the elements of experience outside its integrity and systemic properties. Based on the formula "personality interacts with the social environment", the study presents an algorithm for the application of a systematic methodology for the study of complex objects, which made it possible to identify the system parameters of experience at three levels of cognition and develop the reference structural and functional matrices for the didactic system of its pedagogical enrichment.

  • Purpose - This paper examines the admissibility of restitution as the legal consequence where a contract is frustrated under the Law of Reform (Frustrated Contracts) Act 1943 in comparison with Korean Civil Code (KCC). In order to provide practical guidelines and advice regarding choice of and application of law for contracting parties in international trade, the paper comparatively evaluates requirements and the scope of restitution under the Act 1943 and KCC. Design/methodology - This paper executes a comparative study to analyze whether the parties may claim restitution of money paid or non-money benefit obtained before or after the time of discharge under English law and KCC. To achieve the purpose, it focuses on the identifying characteristics of each statute, thereby providing guidelines to overcome difficulties in legal application and interpretation as to restitution as the consequence of frustration. Findings - Under English law, the benefit may be restituted according to Art 1943 or the common law rule, mistake of fact or law. Under the KCC, restitution is considered based on the principle of the obligation to recover the original obtained regardless of the time when the benefit is conferred. Whilst Act 1943 does not require careful analysis of the grounds of restitution, requirements to justify restitution according to the principle of unjust enrichment, mistake of fact or law, and the KCC should be met. Meanwhile, the KCC may provide more opportunities to award restitution because it does not require the burden of proof related to the defendant's good faith, unlike the principle of unjust enrichment. Originality/value - Where the contract is frustrated by the effect of COVID-19, one legal issue is a consequence of frustration. Therefore, this paper analyzes requirements and the scope of restitution under English law as compared with the KCC in a timely manner. It provides contracting parties with practical guidelines and advice to reduce unpredictability when they choose the governing law in a contract.

  • Objectives : This study used a network pharmacology approach to elucidate the efficacy and molecular mechanisms of Daehwangmokdanpitang (DHMDPT) on Psoriasis. Methods : Using OASIS databases and PubChem database, compounds of DHMDPT and their target genes were collected. The putative target genes of DHMDPT and known target genes of psoriasis were compared and found the correlation. Then, the network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.10.1. The key target genes were screened by Analyzer network and their functional enrichment analysis was conducted based on the Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathways to predict the mechanisms. Results : The result showed that total 30 compounds and 439 related genes were gathered from DHMDPT. 264 genes were interacted with psoriasis gene set, suggesting that the effects of DHMDPT are closely related to psoriasis. Based on GO enrichment analysis and KEGG pathways, 'Binding', 'Cytokine Activity', 'Receptor Ligand Activity' 'HIF-1 signaling pathway', 'IL-17 signaling pathway', 'Toll-like receptor signaling pathway', and 'TNF signaling pathway' were predicted as functional pathways of 16 key target genes of DHMDPT on psoriasis. Among the target genes, IL6, IL1B, TNF, AKT1 showed high correlation with the results of KEGG pathways. Additionally, Emodin, Acetovanillone, Gallic acid, and Ferulic acid showed a high relevance with key genes and their mechanisms. Conclusion : Through a network pharmacological method, DHMDPT was predicted to have high relevance with psoriasis. This study could be used as a basis for studying therapeutic effects of DHMDPT on psoriasis.

  • Objectives : Because predicting the potential efficacy and mechanisms of Korean medicines is challenging due to their high complexity, employing an approach based on network pharmacology could be effective. In this study, network pharmacological analysis was utilized to anticipate the effects of YunPye-Hwan (YPH) in treating Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods : Compounds and their related target genes of YPH were gathered from the TCMSP and PubChem databases. These target genes of YPH were subsequently compared with gene sets associated with COPD to assess correlation. Next, core genes were identified through a two-step screening process, and finally, functional enrichment analysis of these core genes was conducted using both Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathways. Results : A total of 15 compounds and 437 target genes were gathered, resulting in a network comprising 473 nodes and 14,137 edges. Among them, 276 genes overlapped with gene sets associated with COPD, indicating a significant correlation between YPH and COPD. Functional enrichment analysis of the 18 core genes revealed biological processes and pathways such as "miRNA Transcription," "Nucleic Acid-Templated Transcription," "DNA-binding Transcription Factor Activity," "MAPK signaling pathway," and "TNF signaling pathway" were implicated. Conclusion : YPH exhibited significant relevance to COPD by modulating cell proliferation, differentiation, inflammation, and cell death pathways. This study could serve as a foundational framework for further research investigating the potential use of YPH in the treatment of COPD.

  • 경제동물에 대한 동물복지에 대한 관심은 전세계적으로 고조되고 있는 추세이다. 그러나, 국내 양돈농가는 경제성 등을 이유로 고려하지 않거나 미비한 도입으로 돼지 본연의 행동이 제한되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구의목적은 일반적인 사육환경에 환경보조물의 제공이 육성돈의 행동특성에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 실시하였다. 실험동물은 45두의 3원 교잡육성돈(요크셔${\times}$랜드레이스${\times}$두록; 평균체중, $33.35{\pm}5.5kg$)을 준비하였고, 완전임의배치법(randomized complete block design)에 의해 3개 처리구(대조구; 현수형 환경보조물, T1; 바닥형 환경보조물, T2)에 처리구당 3반복, 반복당 5두씩 반슬러리 돈방에 배치하였다. 현수형 환경보조물은 돼지의 어깨 높이에 현수하였고, 바닥형은 돈방의 가운데에 고정시켰다. 시험기간은 14일간 수행하였으며 시험종료일에 스트레스호르몬인 코티졸(cortisol) 농도를 분석하였고 행동특성은 1과 8일차에 촬영하였고 베가스 프로(Vegas Pro) 13.0 프로그램을 활용하여 및 분석하였다. 체중 및 일당증체량은 대조구와 처리구들간 차이가 없었다. 코티졸호르몬은 T2(25.28 ng/mL)에서 대조구(46.75 ng/mL)보다 유의적으로 낮았다(p<0.05). 1일차 행동 유형별 지속시간은 움직임과 공격 항목에서 대조구에 비해 처리구에서 유의적으로 낮았다(p<0.01). 8일차 놀이행동 지속시간에서 처리구2는 925.12초로 T1의 323.91초 보다 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.01). 반면에 처리구들에 비해 대조구는 움직이지 않는 시간이 많았다(p<0.01). 이러한 결과는 환경보조물 제공이 돼지간 공격성을 감소시키고 돼지의 행동을 활동적으로 만들어 돼지 본연의 행동요구를 충족시킬 수 있음을 시사한다. 그러나, 국내에서 환경보조물에 대한 연구는 미흡하므로 본 연구결과는 보조물을 이용한 동물복지에 대한 기초자료로서 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

  • In this study, the selenium (Se) accumulations of soybean sprouts and mungbean sprouts treated with various concentrations of Se-solutions were evaluated, as part of a broader effort to produce Se-enriched variants of the plants. Four levels of sodium selenate ($Na_{2}SeO_{4}$)-dissolved solutions (i.e. 0, T0; 6, T1; 60, T2; and $600{\mu}g/mL$, T3) were prepared and sprayed onto the plants during cultivation. The effect of different spraying periods on Se accumulation was also assessed by watering plant groups once a day for periods of one, two, or three days. Se solution remaining on the surfaces of the plants was washed out by spraying with distilled water on the final day of cultivation. However, the increase of Se accumulation in the plants was found to depend on both Se-concentration and watering period, and the soybean sprouts were determined to accumulate Se more effectively than the mungbean sprouts. Additionally, with regard to Se accumulation in the plants, the period of application of Se solution was determined to be more important than the concentration of the Se solution applied. The averaged total levels of Se-enrichment in whole soybean sprouts at T0, T1, T2, and T3 were 0.26, 65.86, 179.62, and $525.12{\mu}g/dry$ matter (DM) g, respectively, and the relative equations relating Se enrichment in soybean sprouts (Y) against watering days (X) were Y=32.505X-36.17 (T1), Y=88.46X-92.04 (T2), and Y=251.11X-254.9(T3). The averaged total levels of Se-enrichment in the whole mungbean sprouts at T1, T2, and T3 group were 0.05, 3.64, and $101.43{\mu}g/DM$ g, respectively, and the relative equations relating Se enrichment (Y) to watering days (X) for mungbean sprouts were Y=1.67X-1.3467 at T1 and Y=48.035X-46.907 at T2. The results of this study suggest that soybean sprouts and mungbean sprouts enriched with bioavailable Se can be produced on a large scale by Se supplementation, allowing for the development of healthy functional foods such as Se-enriched mungbean sprout soups and salads, Se-enriched functional drink and food additives, and selenium tablets to promote health.
