Objectives To evaluate the effect of InsamGobonHwan (IGH) on growth of rats. Methods We divided male Sprague-Dawley rats into 4 groups(IGHE1, IGHE2, IGHE3 and sham group). IGHE1, IGHE2, IGHE3 groups were administered with IGHE water extracts once a day at the dose of 1,000, 500 and 250mg/kg/$10m{ell}$ for 1 week, 2 weeks, and 3 weeks. Sham group was administered with normal saline with using the same method. We measured body weight, amount of body weight increasing, length of femur, serum Growth Hormone(GH), serum Insulin-like Growth Factor-I(IGF-I), serum Thyroid-stimulating Hormone(TSH) and serum testosterone at 1 week, 2 weeks, and 3 weeks of experiment. Results The body weight and the changes of body weight increased significantly in IGHE1 group compared to sham group after 2 and 3 weeks, and in IGHE2 group after 2 weeks. The lengths of the femur increased significantly in IGHE1 group as compared with sham group after 1, 2 and 3 weeks, and in IGHE3 group after 1 week. The level of IGF-I in the serum increased significantly in S1 group as compared tosham group after 1 and 3 weeks, and in IGHE13 group after 3 weeks. The level of TSH in the serum increased significantly in IGHE1group as compared to sham group after 2 and 3 weeks. The level of GH and testosterone in the serum does not change significantly. Conclusions SGT have an effect of promoting growth of rats and might be effect to treat various kinds of growth delay in children.

Background: Ischemic preconditioning enhances the tolerance of myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury, with the enhancement of the recovery of post-ischemic myocardial function. This study was disigned to assess whether the protective effect of ischemic preconditioning could provide one additional hour of myocardial preservation in four hour myocardial ischemia in a rate heart. Material and method: Fourty four Spargue-Dawley rats, weighing 300~450gm, were divided into four groups. Group 1(n=7) and group 3(n=12) were subjected to 30 minutes of aerobic Langendorff perfusion without ischemic preconditioning and then preserved in saline solution at 2~4$^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours and 5 respectively. Group 2(n=7) and group 4(n=18) were perfused in the same way for 20 minutes, followed by 3 minutes of global mormothermic ischemia and 10 minutes of perfusion and then preserved in the same cold saline solution for 4 hours and 5 hours respectively. Heart rate, left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP), and coronary flow were measured at 15 minutes during perfusion as baseline. Spontaneous defibrillation time was measured after reperfusion. Heart rate, LVDP, and coronary flow were also recorded at 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 45 minutes during reperfusion. Samples of the apical left ventricular wall were studied using a transmission electron microscope. Result: Time of spontaneous defibrillation(TSD) was significantly longer in group 4 than in group 1(p<0.001), and TSD in group 1 was significantly longer in comparision to that of group 2(p<0.05). Heart rate at 45 minutes was significantly higher in group 1 than in group 4(p<0.05). Heart rate at 15 min was significantly higher in group 2 than in group 1(p<0.001) and in group 4 than in group 3(p<0.05). Left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP) at 30 minutes and 45 minutes was higher in group 1 than in group 4(p<0.01), LVDP at 45 minutes was higher in group 4 than in group 3(p<0.05). Rate-pressure product(RPP) at 30 minutes and 45 minutes was higher in group 1 than in group 4(p<0.05). RPP at 15 minutes was higher in group 2 than in group 1(p<0.01). RPP at 30 minutes and 45 minutes was higher in group 4 than in group 3(p<0.05). Group 2 showed relatively less sarcoplasmic edema and less nuclear chromatin clearance than group 1. Group 4 showed less myocardial cell damage than group 3, group 4 showed less myocardial cell damage than group 3, group 4 showed more myocardial cell edema than group 1. Conclusion: Ischemic preconditioning enhanced the recovery of postischemic myocardial function after 4 hours and 5 hours preservation. However, it was not demonstrated that ischemic preconditioning could definitely provide one additional hour of myocardial preservation in four hour myocardial ischemia in a rat heart.

Background: Bovine pericardium treated with glutaraldehyde(GA) is one of the most popular prosthetic materials. However, its late calcific degeneration after implantation results in early failure of the prosthesis. Therefore, we investigated the effects of combined treatment with sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) and glutamate on calcific degeneration of GA treated bovine pericardium. Material and Method: Sixty square-shaped pieces of bovine pericardia were fixed in 0.625% GA solution with 4g/L MgCl2.6H2O as a control group (group 1). Sixty pieces pretreated with 1% SDS (group 2) and sixty pieces posttreated with 8% glutamate (group 3) were also fixed in the same GA solution. Sixty pieces pretreated with 1% SDS and posttrated with 8% glutamate were also fixed in the same GA solution (group 4). After 1 month of fixation, the pieces were implanted into the belly of sixty Sprague-Dawley rat subdermally and were extracted 1 month, 2 months and 3 months after the implantation. With an atomic absorption spectrophotometry, we measured the calcium amount deposited. Result: The calcium deposition in 1 month was 2.01$\pm$0.13 mg/g in group 1, 1.45$\pm$0.31 mg/g in group 2, 2.49$\pm$0.15 mg/g in group 3 and 0.75$\pm$0.27 mg/g in group 4. In 2 months, it was 3.57$\pm$0.15 mg/g in group 1, 0.98$\pm$0.30 mg/g in group 2, 3.46$\pm$0.12 mg/g in group 3, and 1.48$\pm$0.39 mg/g in group 4, and 5.45$\pm$0.42 mg/g in group 1, 2.43$\pm$0.53 mg/g in group 2, 4.20$\pm$0.55 mg/g in group 3, and 1.02$\pm$0.27 mg/g in group 4 in 3 months. The calcium depositions in group 2 and 4 were less than those of group 1 and 3 in 1 month 2, months, and 3 months(p<0.01). The calcium depositions in group 1, 2 and 3 increased with time. However, they remained unchanged in group 4, which was statistically significant(p<0.01). Conclusion: Pretreatment with SDS is effective in reducing calcification of GA treated bovine pericardium, and the combined method of pretreatment with SDS and posttreatment with glutamate was more effective than the other methods.

This study was performed to investigate the toxic effect of pyrrolizidine alkaloids from symphytum officinale i n rat. For this experiment, 120 male and female rats of Sprague-Dawley strain were used. The experimental groups were divided into five: Group CM and CF served as normal control with its gender. Group EM1 and EF1 were fed a 1% Symphytum officinal extract diet for 8 weeks. Group EM2 and EF2 fed a diet containing 2% extract diet. 4% extract diet into group EM3 and EF3 and 8% extract diet into group EM4 and EF4 were given. The results were as follows: 1. The major alkaloids of Symphytum officinale extract were symphytine, echmidine, and lasiocarpine. The amounts of total alkaloid were 168 $\mu\textrm{g}$ PAs/$m\ell$ extract. And contents of Pas in leaves were 0.05% wt.. 2. Total serum bilirubin concentrations increased significantly in group EM2, EM3, and EM4. Group EF1, EF2, EF3, and EF4 showed statistical significance for the group CF (p<0.05). 3. Aspartate transaminase activities were increased significantly in group EM3 and EM4 (p<0.05). Aspartate transaminase activities of EF1, EF2, EF3, and EF4 showed statistical significance for the group CF (p<0.05). 4. Alanine transaminase activities increased significantly in group EM3, EM4 (p<0.05). Alanine transaminase activities of EF1, EF2, EF3, and EF4 showed statistical significance for the group CF (p<0.05). 5. Alkaline phosphatase activities increased significantly in group EM2, EM3, and EM4 (p<0.05). Alkaline phosphatase activities of EF1, FE@, EF3, and EF4 showed statistical sigmificance for the group CF (p<0.05). 6. istopathological analysis of liver specimens from group EM3 and EM4 showed focal necrosis, periportal necrosis and apoptpsis. Hepatocytes obtained from group EM2 showed fatty change and hydropic degeneration in group EM3 and EM4. Chromatolysis and chromatin margination was shown in group EF2 and EF3. With the above results, it was demonstrated that the Symphytum officinal extract could induce functional change of liver, and histopathological change of liver in rats fed a diet containing extract. In conclusion, because of the risk of intoxication or adverse effect, the composition, dosage and mode of administration of herbal products should be monitored strictly. And this study serves as a reminder that herbal as well as orthodox medications may have serious side effects.

The effect of synthetic bone materials was assessed in the patients with pure periodontal class II and III furcation defects. The buccal aspects of the maxillary and mandilular first and second molars were surgically exposed, and synthetic bone materials were interposed between the gingival flap and the furcation defects in the experimental group. The control group were treated without the use of synthetic bone materials by same operator. Probing pocket depth, gingival recession, and loss of attachment, were measured by Michigan O-probe and tooth mobility was evaluated by an electronic mobility tester(Periotest(R), Siemens co. Germany) at preoperation and 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperation. Standardized radiogrphs were taken at preoperation and 6-month and 12-month postoperation. The postoperative change of clinical parameters and the difference between experimental group and control group were statistically analyzed by Student, t-test. The results were as follows: 1. The probing pocket depth at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was significantly decreased, compared to that at preoperative examination in both experimental group and control group(P<0.005), but there was no significantly difference between experimental group and control group. 2. The amount of gingival recession at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was increased, compared to that at the preoperative examination in both experimental and control group(P<0.005). In the case of the class III furcation involvement, the amount of gingival recession at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was more significantly increased in control group than experimental group(P<0.05). 3. The amount of loss of attachment at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was significantly decreased, compared to that at the preoperative examination in both experimental and control group in the case of class II furcation involvement, and in experimental group only in the case of furcation III involvement(P<0.005). The amount of loss of attachment at, the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was more significantly decreased in experimental group than control group in the case of the class III furcation involvement(P<0.05), but in the case of class II furcation involvement there was no significant difference between experimental group and control group. 4. The tooth mobility at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month postoperative examination was significantly decreased, compared to that at the preoperative examination in both experimental and control group(P<0.005), but there was no significant difference between experimental group and control group. 5. Radiopacity of furcation area was greatly increased in the experiment group, but there was no radiographic change in the control group.

In order to compare and examine the effect the effect of Kuibitang, Kamiondarmtang and Kuibiondarmtang against stress, I induced immobilization stress by binding rats for 200mins under a little anesthetized with ether. I classified as normal group, control group which administrated 0.9% NaCl solution, sample A group which administrated Kuibitang, sample B group which administrated Kamiondarmtang and sample C group which administrated Kuibiondarmtang. I got some conclusions by measuring amounts of norepinephrine, epinephrine, triiodothyronine($T_3$) and thyroxine($T_4$) in 1, 3 and 5 days, respectively. 1. Norepinephrine showed high meaningful decrease after 1. 3 and 5 days in sample A group. It showed little decrease in sample B group. It showed a little meaningful decrease after 1 day and high meaningful decrease after 3 and 5 days in sample C group. 2. Epinephrine showed high meaningful decrease after 3 and 5 days in sample A group. It showed little decrease in sample B group. It showed a little meaningful decrease after 3 days and high meaningful decrese after 5 days in sample C group. 3. Triiodothyronine($T_3$) inclined to approach normal value in sample A, B, C group in comparision wit control group but didn't have high meaning. 4. Thyroxine($T_4$) inclined to approach normal va1ue in sample A, B, C group in comparision with contrl group but didn't have high meaning. As I consider the effect of experiments, I think that Kuibitang and Kuibiondarmtang have some effects against stress and it is right to apply to the treatment of stress.

본 연구는 미백, 탈감작제 도포 후, 셀프 에칭 프라이머를 이용하여 브라켓 접착 시 법랑질에 대한 전단결합강도를 비교하기 위해 시행되었다. 48개의 소구치를 무작위로 12개씩 4개의 그룹으로 분류하였다. Group 1: 15% hydrogen-peroxide office bleaching agent (Illumine Office-IO), Group 2: IO + BisBlock Oxalate Dentin-Desensitizer, Group 3: Bis-Block Oxalate Dentin-Desensitizer, Group 4: 아무것도 하지 않음(대조군). 브라켓 접착 24시간 후 전단결합강도를 측정하였으며, 만능시험기의 속도를 5 mm/min로 하여 브라켓이 탈락할 때까지 시행하였다. Modified adhesive remnant index를 이용하여 탈락 양상을 분석하였다. 미백만 시행, 미백과 탈감작제 도포, 탈감작제만 도포한 경우 모두 브라켓의 전단결합강도를 현저히 감소시켰으며 ($p$ = 0.001), 이 세 실험군 간에는 통계적으로 유의성 있는 차이를 관찰할 수 없었다 (Group 1-Group 2, $p$ = 0.564; Group 1-Group 3, $p$ = 0.371; Group 2-Group 3, $p$ = 0.133). 세 실험군에서 브라켓의 탈락은 주로 법랑질-접착제 계면에서 발생하여 브라켓 베이스에 접착제의 100%가 남아있었다. 따라서 미백과 탈감작제 도포는 교정치료 후에 시행하는 것이 바람직하다.
