제주도를 중심으로 한 남해해역 ($123^{\circ}$/30'E-$128^{\circ}$/30'E, $32^{\circ}00N-34^{\circ}$ 30'N)을 대상으로 퇴적토 시료를 1988년 7월 31일부터 8월 10일, 1989년 3월 9일 부텨 3월 13일에 걸쳐 2회 채취하였다. 퇴적토시료는 숙성된 해수와 증류수를 각각 넣은 ZoBell 2216 E 평판배지를 사용하여 해양 세균과 담수 새균을 계수하였고 종속영양 세균분포와 세포외 효소활성을 측정 분석하였다. 종석영양세균의 분포는 하계의 경우 해양 세균과 담수 세균 각각 $0.3{\times}10^{6}~15{\times}10^{6}/cm^{3}$ sediment, $0.3{\times}10^{7}~30{\times}10^{7}/cm^{3}$ sediment, $0.01{\times}10^{6}~19{\times}10^{6}/cm^{3}$ sediment로 나타났다. 1989 년 춘계, sediment 표층 종속영양 세균의 절대값은 정점에 따라 1988 년 하계에 비해 최고 100배 이상으로 상승하였고, 대부분의 정점에서 많은 세균수를 관찰할 수 있었다. 한편 총세균에 대한 담수세균의 비율은 하계보다 춘계에 항승하는 결과를 나타냇다. 퇴적토 함수율은 하계보다 춘계에 낮게 나타났으나 유기물량을 나타내는 회분량은 높음을 알 수 있었다. 즉 춘계에는 하계에 비해 입자가 큰 최적토가 많이 분포되어 있으나 유기물의 유입이 많음을 시사한다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합해 볼때 남해해열 퇴적토 세균군집은 계절에 따라 매우 높은 분포를 보이고 이 요인으로는 육수의 유입으로 인한 영향을 들 수 있다. 또한 춘계에 해수의 혼합으로 무기영양물질 공급이 일어나고 이어 증식한 프랑크톤이 침강하여 퇴적토에 유입되므로써 세포외 효소 활성력이 높은 세균에 의해 고분자물질이 분해되고 이로 인한 영양물질 공급이 세균상승의 원인 중 하나일 것으로 사료된다.

Porous matrices of bioactive polymers such as polyglycolic acid (PGA) or polylactic acid (PLA) can be used as scaffolds in bone tissue growth during bone repair process. These polymers are highly porous and serve as a template for the growth and organization of new bone tissues. We evaluated the effect of PGA and PLA polymers on osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cell extracellular mineralization. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in a time-dependent manner -1, 15, 25d as appropriate - for the period of bone formation stages in one of the five culture circumstances, such as normal osteogenic differentiation medium, PGA-plated, fetal bovine serum (FBS)-plated, PGA/FBS-coplated, and PLA-plated For the evaluation of bone formation, minerals (Ca, Mg, Mn) and alkaline phosphatase activity, a marker for osteoblast differentiation, were measured Alizarin Red staining was used for the measurement of extracellular matrix Ca deposit During the culture period, PGA-plated one was reabsorbed into the medium more easily and faster than the PLA-plated one. At day 15, at the middle stage of bone formation, cellular Ca and Mg levels showed higher tendency in PGA- or PLA-plated treatments compared to non-plated control and at day 25, at the early late stage of bone formation, all three cellular Ca, Mg or Mn levels showed higher tendency as in order of PGA-related treatments and PLA-plated treatments, compared to control even without significance. Medium Ca, Mg or Mn levels didn't show any consistent tendency. Cellular ALP activity was higher in the PGA- or PLA-plated treatments compare to normal osteogenic medium treatment PGA-plated and PGA/FBS-plated treatments showed better Ca deposits than other treatments by measurement of Alizarin Red staining, although PLA-plated treatment also showed reasonable Ca deposit. The results of the present study suggest that biodegradable material, PGA and also with less extent for PLA, can be used as a biomaterial for better extracellular matrix mineralization in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells.

본 균의 생육 및 효소생산에 유용한 탄소원으로서 자연계의 식물에 풍부한 펙틴을 탄소원으로 할 경우, 그 생육도는 전분보다 뛰어났으며, alcohol oxidase와 catalase의 생산량도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 alcohol oxidase의 경우는 전분의 15배 이상의 생산량을 보여 본 균과 펙틴 이용성과의 관계를 시사하였고, 세포외 pectin esterase, pectinase등의 높은 활성이 검출되어 이를 증명하였다. 또한 alcohol oxidase 반응에서 생성되는 물질인 formaldehyde를 산화하는 formaldehyde dehydrogenase와, formate를 산화하여 $CO_2$를 생성하는 formate dehydrogenase의 반응을 발견하여, 본 균의 pectin 이용성과 관련한 일련의 에너지 대사계의 존재를 추정할 수 있었다.

Background: Because of the relatively similar size of organs to human and the physiological and structural similarities, the use of porcine as xenograft donors is progressing very actively. In this study, we analyzed the characteristics of porcine ear cartilage and evaluated its suitability as graft material in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. Methods: The auricular cartilage was harvested from two pigs, and subjected to histological examination by immunohistochemical staining. To determine the collagen content, samples were treated with collagenase and weight changes were measured. After sterilization by irradiation, the samples were grafted into rats and stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin and Masson Trichrome to observe inflammation and xenograft rejection. Results: In IHC staining, extracellular matrices were mainly stained with type II collagen (20.69%), keratin sulfate (10.20%), chondroitin sulfate (2.62%), and hyaluronic acid (0.84%). After collagenase treatment, the weight decreased by 68.3%, indicating that about 70% of the porcine ear cartilage was composed of collagen. Upon xenograft of the sterilized cartilages in rats, inflammatory cells were observed for up to 2 months. However, they gradually decreased, and inflammation and reject-response were rarely observed at 5 months. Conclusion: The porcine ear cartilage was covered with perichondrium and cellular constituents were found to be composed of chondrocytes and chondroblasts. In addition, the extracellular matrices were mainly composed of collagen. Upon xenograft of irradiated cartilage into rats, there was no specific inflammatory reaction around the transplanted cartilage. These findings suggest that porcine ear cartilage could be a useful alternative implant material for human cosmetic surgery.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the cytomorphologic features of histologically confirmed clear cell carcinoma of the ovary and to evaluate the applicability of scrape or fine-needle aspiration cytology in making an intraoperative diagnosis. We reviewed scrape or fine-needle aspiration cytology findings in tissues taken from 6 patients with clear cell carcinoma of the ovary. The cytologic diagnosis was based primarily on findings in alcohol-fixed, hematoxylin-eosin (H-E) stained smears. The formation of material resembling a basement membrane was a characteristic finding in these smears. This extracellular hyaline material was stained light pink with H-E and was frequently found within tumor cell clusters as well as in the background material. Multinucleated giant cells were found occasionally. Each tumor cell had an abundant, clear, or granular cytoplasm with a distinct cellular membrane. Scrape cytology is a simple and rapid supportive method and could be helpful in diagnosing clear cell carcinoma of the ovary, especially when marked artifacts appear in the frozen section.

Oxidative stress or accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leads neuronal cellular death and dysfunction, and it contributes to neuronal degenerative disease such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and stroke. Glutamate is one of the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). Glutamate contributes to fast synaptic transmission, neuronal plasticity, outgrowth and survival, behavior, learning and memory. In spite of these physiological functions, high concentration of glutamate causes neuronal cell damage, acute insults and chronic neuronal neurodegenerative diseases. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) enzyme plays an important role of cellular antioxidant system against oxidant injury. NNMBS020, the water-insoluble fraction of the 70% EtOH extract of root barks of Dictamnus dasycarpus, showed dominant neuroprotective effects on glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in mouse hippocampal HT22 cells by induced the expression of HO-1 and increased HO activity. In mouse hippocampal HT22 cells, NNMBS020 makes the nuclear accumulation of Nrf2 and stimulates extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. The ERK MAPK pathway inhibitor significantly reduced NNMBS020-induced HO-1 expression, whereas the JNK and p38 inhibitors did not. In conclusion, the water-insoluble fraction of the 70% EtOH extract of root barks of D. dasycarpus (NNMBS020) significantly protect glutamate-induced oxidative damage by induction of HO-1 via Nrf2 and ERK pathway in mouse hippocampal HT22 cells.

In this study, we propose a new scaffold fabrication method, "direct electro-hydrodynamic jet process," using the initial jet of an electrospinning process and ethanol media as a target. The fabricated threedimensional (3D) fibrous structure was configured with multilayered microsized struts consisting of randomly entangled micro/nanofibrous architecture, similar to that of native extracellular matrixes. The fabrication of the structure was highly dependent on various processing parameters, such as the surface tension of the target media, and the flow rate and weight fraction of the polymer solution. As a tissue regenerative material, the 3D fibrous scaffold was cultured with preosteoblasts to observe the initial cellular activities in comparison with a solid-freeform fabricated 3D scaffold sharing a similar structural geometry. The cell-culture results showed that the newly developed scaffold provided outstanding microcellular environmental conditions to the seeded cells (about 3.5-fold better initial cell attachment and 2.1-fold better cell proliferation).
