What makes glucose transport function sensitive to insulin in one cell type such as adipocyte, and insensitive in another such as liver cells is unresolved question at this time. Recently it is known that insulin stimulates glucose transport in adipocytes largely by redistributing transporter from the storage pool that is included in a low density microsomal fraction to plasma membrane. Therefore, insulin sensitivity may depend upon the relative distribution of gluscose transporters between the plasma membrane and in an intracellular storage compartment. In hepatocytes, the subcellular distribution of glucose transporter is less well documented. It is thus possible that the apparent insensitivity of the hepatocyte system could be either due to lack of the constitutively maintained, intracellular storage pool of glucose transporter or lack of insulin-mediated transporter translocation mechanism in this cell. In this study, I examined if any intracellular glucose transporter pool exists in hepatocytes and this pool is affected by insulin. The results obtained summarized as followings: 1) Distribution of subcellular fractions of hepatocyte showed that there are $24.9{\pm}1.3%$ of plasma membrane, $36.9{\pm}1.7%$ of nucleus-mitochondria enriched fraction, $23.5{\pm}1.2%$ of lysosomal fraction, $9.6{\pm}1.0%$ of high density microsomal fraction and $4.9{\pm}0.5%$ of low density microsomal fraction. 2) In adipocyte, there were $29.9{\pm}2.6%$ of plasma membrane, $19.4{\pm}1.9%$ of nucleus-mitochondria enriched fraction, $26.7{\pm}1.8%$ of high density microsomal fraction and $23.9{\pm}2.1%$ of low density microsomal fraction. 3) Surface labelling of sodium borohydride revealed that plasma membrane contaminated to lysosomal fraction by $26.8{\pm}2.8%$, high density microsomal fraction by $8.3{\pm}1.3%$ and low density microsomal fraction by $1.7{\pm}0.4%$ respectively. 4) Cytochalasin B bound to all of subcellular fractions with a Kd of $1.0{\times}10^{-6}M$. 5) Photolabelling of cytochalasin B to subcellular fractions occurred on 45 K dalton protein band, a putative glucose transporter and D-glucose inhibited the photolabelling. 6) Insulin didn't affect on the distribution of subcellular fractions and translocation of intracellular glucose transporters of hepatocytes. 7) HEGT reconstituted into hepatocytes was largely associated with plasma membrane and very little was found in low density microsomal fraction which equals to the native glucose transporter distribution. Insulin didn't affect on the distribution of exogeneous glucose transporter in hepatocytes. From the above results it is concluded that insulin insensitivity of hepatocyte may due to lack of intracellular storage pool of glucose transporter and thus intracellular storage pool of glucose transporter is an essential feature of the insulin action.

내당능 장애와 공복혈당장애는 장차 당뇨병으로 진행되거나 심혈관 질환을 일으키는 위험인자로 간주되어 적절한 혈당 및 혈중지질수치의 조절이 필요하다. 홍국의 기능성분인 모나콜린-K는 stalin계열 약물의 주원료로서 이미 지질 강하제로 잘 알려져 있다. 홍국의 지질 강하제 이외의 다른 효과로서 동물 자체 효력 시험과 문헌 고찰을 통해 혈당 강하 효과가 보고되고 있으므로 이중 맹검, 무작위배정, 위약 대조 인체시험을 통하여 홍국의 혈중 지질 및 혈당 개선에 대한 효능을 확인하는 목적으로 본 연구를 실시하였다. $18{\sim}80$세 사이의 남녀를 대상으로, 스크리닝 시 공복혈당이 110 mg/dl이상 126 mg/dl 이하인 공복 혈당 장애이거나 경구 당 부하 검사 2시간 후 혈당이 140 mg/dl 이상 199 mg/dl 이하인 내당능 장애자이거나 당화혈색소 수치가 6% 이상 7% 이하인 자로서 심각한 합병증이 없는 사람을 대상으로 하였으며, 홍국 저용량군 21명, 고용량군 23명, 위약군 20명으로 총 64명을 대상으로 12주간 검사에 대한 결과분석을 실시하였다. 1차 유효성 지표로 혈중 지질관련 지표인 중성지방, 총 콜레스테롤, LDL 콜레스테롤, HDL 콜레스테롤, Atherogenic index (AI)를 측정하였으며, 2차 유효성 지표로 혈당 지표인 공복 혈당, 경구 당부하 검사 2시간 혈당치, 당화혈색소, 인슐린, MOHAIR, 유리지방산을 측정하였다. 시험군에서 홍국제제 섭취 전후로 중성지방, 총 콜레스테롤, LDL 콜레스테롤, HDL콜레스테롤 수치가 유의적으로 개선되었으며 동맥경화지수도 유의적으로 향상되었다. 홍국 고용량군의 총 콜레스테롤, HDL 콜레스테롤과 LDL 콜레스테롤 및 동맥경화지수 개선 정도는 위약군의 변화량과 비교하여 유의적으로 개선되는 것으로 나타났고, 저용량군의 경우에도 LDL 콜레스테롤과 동맥경화지수 개선 정도가 위약군의 변화량과 비교하여 유의적으로 개선되었다. 홍국의 섭취가 혈당조절에 미치는 영향은 모든 시험군에서 제제 섭취 12주 후 공복혈당이 감소하였고, 시험군이 위약군에 비해 더욱 감소하였으나 통계적으로는 유의하지 않았다. 주평가지표인 공복혈당을 기준으로 공복혈당 110mg/dl 이상인 피험자만을 대상으로 당대사 관련 지표를 분석한 결과, 홍국 고용량군에서 공복혈당의 감소경향이 관찰되었고, 홍국 저용량군에서는 당화혈색소의 유의적인 감소효과를 확인하였으나 위약군의 변화량과 비교하여 유의적이지 않았다. 공복혈당 장애자 또는 내당능 장애자에서 하루 홍국 분말 2.52 g (저용량군) 또는 5.04 g (고용량군)을 포함한 건강기능식품을 12주간 섭취시킨 결과 혈중 지질 농도와 동맥경화 지수의 개선으로 심혈관 질환의 위험도를 낮출 수 있을 것으로 보이며, 고용량군일 경우 더 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of family support for diabetic patients and the diet therapy practice of patients themselves, and to analyze the relationship between family support and diet therapy practice and blood glucose control, and thus to prepare basic data for the development of effective education programs to improve blood glucose control in diabetic patients. The study subjects were 82 patients with type II diabetes, aged over 20 in the Chungbuk area. The gender distribution of subjects was 52.4% males and 47.6% females, and BMI showed 29.3% overweight and 35.3% obesity. Among the 82 study subjects, the relationship between diet therapy related family support and blood glucose control was examined in 67 subjects who answered practicing diet therapy, and the results showed that the family support score of a group with excellent blood glucose control was significantly higher than those of groups with fair or poor control (p<0.001) and the correlation between the two factors was very high (r=0.341, p<0.001). For the relationship between diet therapy practice by patients themselves and blood glucose control, diet therapy practice of a group with excellent blood glucose control was significantly higher than those of other groups (fair or poor control groups) (p<0.001) and the correlation between two factors was very high (r=0.304, p<0.001). For other factors influencing blood glucose control, a group with diabetes education showed significantly better blood glucose control compared to other groups without education (p<0.05). From the above results, diet therapy practice by patients, family support, and the necessity of diabetes education were confirmed to control blood glucose of diabetic patients. In conclusion, development and operation of education program should include not only patients but also their family members.

포도당 억제현상은 유전자 조작 및 induder에 의해 감소될 수 있다. UA8G와 GALl TATA box 사 이에서의 유전자 삭제는 포도당 억제현상을 줄이고 갈락토스가 존재하지 않는 조건에서 지속적인 유전자 발현을 도모했다. 상대적 inducer의 양(갈락토스/포 도당 농도의 비)은 유전자 발현 및 포도당 억제현상 에 영향을 주었다. 포도당 억제현상은 상대적 inducer의 양이 증가함에 따라 2-5배 정도 감소하였다. 또한 유전자 발현은 플라즈미드의 수에 좌우된다. 배지에 갈락토스만 았을 경우 유전자 발현은 플라즈 마드의 수가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 반면에 배지에 포도당과 갈락토스가 함께 있는 경우 (2% G Glu+2% Gal), 플라즈미드의 수는 유전자 발현에 별다른 영향을 주지 못했다. 그러나 높은 상대적 m­d ducer 양이 배지에 있는 경우 (0.4% Glu+0.8% Gal), 플라즈미드의 수가 증가함에 따라 유전자 발 현이 증가하였다. 즉, 포도당 억제현상을 줄임으로써 유전자 발현효율을 높이고자 할 때 갈락토스의 농도 를 증가시키는 경우보다는 포도당의 농도를 낮춤으 로써 상대적 inducer의 양음 높여 유전자 발현을 유 도하는 방법이 보다 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

Pseudomonas putida BM01 was grown efficiently on glucose as the sole carbon source with a supply of a nitrogen source in pH-stat mode using a low setpoint limit. A final cell concentration of 100 g/l was obtained in 30 h of fed-batch cultivation by controlling glucose concentration within the range of 5-20 g/l and maintaining dissolved oxygen tension above 10$%$ saturation using pure oxygen. This high cell density culture technique is believed highly useful for the production of poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) by this strain.

Atherosclerotic vascular disease is a major cause of the increased morbidity and mortality assciated with diabetes mellitus. The prominent role of nutrition in hypercholesteolemia and atherosclerosis is generally accepted. Diet is a key element in the management of diabetes (type I-IDDM), yet the appropriate diet for patient with diabetes mellitus is not well known. Dietary protein has been shown to have a significant effect on plasma cholesterol levels in both experimental animals and humans. The present experiment was designed to determine the effect of the dietary protein level(20% vs 60%) on plasma glucose concentration, lipids profile, insulin and glucagon levels from non-diabetic and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Results showed that a high protein diet decreased triglyceride concentration in diabetic rats. Also diabetic rats fed a high protein diet were hypocholesterolemic than rats fed a control diet. There were no effects by level of protein on fasting blood glucose concentration and insulin/glucagon ratio. Results from the present study suggest that a high protein diet may be beneficial to control pasma lipids in chemically-induced diabetic rats.

Succinic acid-producing Anaerohiospirillum succinkiproducens was anaerobically grown in glucose-fed continuous cultures using glucose as a carbon source, and the metabolic flexibility of A. succiniciproducens in response to varying glucose concentrations and dilution rates was examined Both succinic acid (SA) and acetic acid (AA) formation was growth-associated, and their growth-rate-related coefficients ($K_{SA/X}$, $K_{AA/X}$) and nongrowth-rate-related coefficients ($K'_{SA/X}$, $K'_{AA/X}$) were slightly influenced by glucose concentrations. A high glucose concentration (38 g/l) and high growth rate ($0.63\;h^{-1}$) did not induce by-product formation.

사람의 섬유아세포인 GM10에서 glucose 농도에 따른 IGFBP-5의 존재와 발현에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고 당뇨병과 관련된 in vitro model system으로서의 활용 가능성을 검토하고자 하였다. 섬유아세포인 GM10 세포를 시용하여 glu-cose 배양 조건에 따른 IGFBP-5의 존재와 발현에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 그 결과, IGFBP-5의 단백질 수준은 고농도 glucose 배양 조건에서 증가하였으나, IGFBP-5 mRNA 발현에는 아무런 영향을 나타내지 않았다. IGFBP-5 protease 활성은 고농도 glucose 배양 조건에서 높았다. IGF- I 과 인슐 린은 IGFBP-5 protease 활성에 관여하는 것으로 보여지며, GM10 세포에 있어서 IGFBP-5의 분해에는 serine protease 뿐만 아니라 metalloprotease가 관여하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, gelatin zymography를 통한 protease 활성은 고농도 glucose 배양 조건에서 크게 나타났으며, 시간 의존적으로 증가하였다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 IGFs와 같은 세포 성장인자에 대한 연구는 세포수준의 당뇨병과 관련된 in vitro model system이 가능하리라고 여겨지며 더 많은 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 보인다.

The ultimate aim of this study is to find high-fiber sources among Korean common foods and to develop a high-fiber supplement which can be useful in the therapeutic diet for the diabetic patients. For this purpose the effect of four kinds of seaweeds(mixture of purple laver & sea lettuce : MPS, sea tanle : ST, sea mustard : SM, agar agar : AA) on the glucose and lipid mtabolism were examined. Seven groups of normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were fed dietary fiber-free control diet or one of experimental diets containing 7% of one of four seaweeds for six weeks. The effects of seaweeds were campared with the effects of fiber-free diet or pectin diet. ST, SM, and AA showed a tendency of improving glucose tolerance improvement by those seaweeds, however, was less than that by pectin. MPS was found to possess a serum cholesterol-lowering effect which is comparable to that of pectin. All the supplementations of seaweeds induced significant increase in fecal steroids excretion. The amounts of fecal cholesterol excretion follwing in feeding of MPS and SM were as high as the level cause by pectin. The excretion of bile acids in the MPS group was much higher than that in the pectin group. Based on its effects of alleviating the diabetic symptoms in the previous study and of improving the glucose tolerance, sea mustard seems to have a benefical effect on glucose metabolism. The serum cholesterol-lowering effect of MPS possibly due to the significant increase in fecal steroids excretion suggests that MPS may be effective in improving abnormalities of lipid metabolism. Therefore, sea tangle and mixture of purple laver & sea lettuce seem to be promising as an effective source of high-fiber supplement for the diabetic patients.
