Microsomes isolated from Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf)9 cells infected wi th human FM01 recombinant baculovirus catalyzed the NADPH- and 02-dependent oxidation of methimazole, thiourea, and phenylthiourea. However there was no detectable activity with 1,3-diphenylthiourea or larger thiocarbamides. Microsomes from control Sf9 cells were devoid of methimazole or thiourea S-oxygenase activity. (omitted)

To investigate the antitumor activity of mugwort (Artemisia princeps Pampan), petroleum ether extract of mugwork was partially purified by a silica gel chromatography. Among several fractions, the fraction which was obtained under the elution with acetone, showed potent cytotoxicity against mouse leukemia cell line(Ll210), human colon cancer cell line (HCT-48) and human hepatoma cell line (Hep G2) , but was less effective with normal cell line(mouse embryo cell). Acetone fraction appeared to be glycolipid by Benedict test and the major fatty acids of the lipid were C16 ; 0 , C 18: 3by GC/MS analysis.

Movements an environment problem is recognized, and to solve have originated from fashion design scope during the time that is not short of the last couple of years. If it was an opening for that kind of activity to let recognize an eco-fashion design, now it is a purpose of this study to present a realistic practice plan to follow by a real eco-fashion design and production activity, and will be done.

A phytochemical investigation of stems from Salvadora persica resulted in the first isolation of four benzylamides from a natural source. The isolated compounds were identified as butanediamide, $N^{1},\;N^{4}$-bis(phenylmethyl)-2(S)-hydroxy-butanediamide (1), N-benzyl-2-phenylacetamide (2), N-benzylbenzamide (3) and benzylurea (4). The structure elucidation was accomplished using spectroscopic methods, especially 2D NMR and HREIMS. Compound 2 revealed a significant inhibitory effect on human collagen-induced platelet aggregation, and a moderate antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli.

In search for plant-derived cytotoxic compounds, it was found that the MeOH extracts obtained from Amanita pantherina(DC. ex Fr.) Krombh exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against human tumor cell line. The classical fractionation on the basis of the inhibitory activity upon the growth human tumor cell line. in vitro, and repeated column chromatography afforded several cytotoxic compounds from Amanita pantherina (DC, ex Fr.) Krombh. (omitted)

We have focused on various biological activities of acharan sulfate (AS) isolated from the giant African snail Achatina fulica. In a previous study, AS showed antiangiogenic and immunomodulating activity. We also investigated antitumor activity of AS. In vitro AS had no cytotoxicity within 0 to 200 ug/ml in tumor cells such as Lewis lung carcinoma(LLC) , KM1214 (human colon cancer cell) and Caki-1 (human kidney cancer cell) by both MTT and SRB assay. In vivo AS was used to treat C57BL/6 mice bearing LLC by subscutaneous injection. (omitted)

·The potent antitumor activities of 3-arylisoquinolines promoted us to explore the structure-activity relationship of these compounds. A series of 3-arylisoquinoline derivatives were evaluated for antitumor cytotoxicity against human lung tumor cell (A 549). For the next stage, we decided to prepare the constrained form of 3-arylisoquinolines as indeno[1,2-c]isoquinolines. As a result, diverse spectrum against human tumor cell lines was obtained. In order to study structure-activity relationship (SAT) of these compounds the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) was carried out. (omitted)

We found that 23-hydroxyursolic acid, triterpenoid was isolated from Cussonia bancoensis have a significant cytotoxic activity against HL -60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells. The IC of 23-hydroxyursolic acid was 32.83 $\mu$M. These anti-proliferative activity was due to induction of apoptosis. The effect of apoptosis was identified by DNA laddering, DAPI assay. PI staining, and Annerxin V-FITC binding assay. (omitted)

The new method to improve pine-fungi activity are needed by customed forest tending. Fungi is essencial for human life. Pine-mushroom (Trichroma matsutake)products are related to fungi activity. These are improved by customed forest tending. For example, species arrangement, thinning ratio, light control, water supply etc.

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) evoke pacemaker activities in many tissues. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between interstitial cell and pacemaker activity in the human ureter through the recording of spontaneous contractions. Spontaneous contractions of eight circular and longitudinal smooth muscle strips of the human ureter to acetylcholine (ACh) and/or norepinephrine (NE) were observed. Human ureteral strips were divided into proximal and distal groups, and each group was subdivided into circular and longitudinal groups. The proximal group showed spontaneous activities of 3~4 times within 5 minutes in the longitudinal group. ACh ($10^{-4}\;M$) augmented the frequency of the spontaneous contractions. The cumulative application of NE also augmented the frequency in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of NE application were inhibited by concomitant application of $10^{-5}\;M$ glibenclamide. Receptor tyrosine kinase (c-kit) staining revealed abundant ICCs only in proximal tissues. Therefore, spontaneous contractions of the human ureter might be modulated by ICC in the proximal region, and the actions might be related with the activation of cholinergic and/or adrenergic system mediated by a glibenclamide-sensitive pathway.
