Macrophage activated by LPS/IFN-${\gamma}$ playa important role in imflammation. innate immunity and tumor immunity. The recent report has indicated that LPS treated bone marrow macrophages were induced apoptosis. but IFN-${\gamma}$ protects from apoptosis induced by several stimuli in complete medium condition (Jordi et al.. Immunity. Vo1.11. 103-113. 1999). (omitted)

미맹출된 상악 중절치는 비교적 흔히 임상에서 8세이상의 아동에서 관찰될 수 있다. 맹출실패의 원인으로는 치배의 비정상적인 발육이 언급되는데 아직 명백히 밝혀지지는 않았지만, 이는 외상이나 선행유치의 치근단 감염으로 유발될 수 있다. 본 증례는 외상의 병력이 없어 유치의 치근단 감염에 의한 상악 중절치의 매복을 고려해 볼 수 있다. 치아의 맹출과 Hertwig's epithelial root sheath 에 의한 지속적인 치근 발육을 유도하기 위해서는 외과적 노출과 가철성 장치를 이용한 교정적 견인이 치료방법으로 시행될수 있다. 본 증례는 역위 매복으로 인해 치근의 만곡이 예상되며 치근의 발육이 지연된 치아를 치근형성 전 조기에 가철성 장치를 이용한 교정적 견인에 의해 정상적인 맹출과 인접치와 유사한 치근 발육이 얻어졌다. 하지만 향후 완전한 치근 형성 유무에 대한 주기적인 검진과 부착치은 획득을 위한 치주적인 처치가 필요하리라 사료된다.

Heat shock protein 70(HSP70) is induced by elevated temperature and many other types of stresses in cell. HSP70 ensures cell survival under stressful condition that would lead to irreversible cell damage and ultimately to cell death. HSP70 plays essential role in the synthesis, transport, and folding of proteins and is often refferred to as molecular chaperones. Increased levels of HSPs occur after arthritis, infection, imflammation, autoimmune disease and CNS injury such as infarction, ischemia, seizure and Alzheimer's disease. Also, HSP70 increases resistance to apoptosis. The recent studies that the expression of the HSP has been processed at various field. However, they an still relatively line studied in clinically application. This review summarizes the fundamental knowledge of HSP.

Inflammation is localized response to foreign substance such as bacteria or in some instance to internally produced substances and has relation with immunity system. The macrophages plays a role in the development of the Iymphohaemopoietic system before and after birth, as well as in the natural and acquired immune responses of adult to immunogens, including infectious agents. NO have been suggested to play an important role in endotoxin-mediated shock and imflammation. In this study, we investigated the effect of Omisodok-eum on the production of NO. The Omisodok-eum inhibited the secretion of NO in LPS-stimulated mouse peritoneal macrophages, without affecting cell viability. The protein level of inducible nitric oxide synlhase(iNOS) in peritoneal macrophages was also decreased by Omisodok-eum. These results suggest that Omisodok-eum suppresses the endotoxin-induced inflammatory responses through inhibiting the production of NO

The author installed $3.75mm\times10mm$ $Br{\aa}nrmark$ osseointegrated implants and $3.5mm\times8mm$ I.T.I. hollow screw implants(Benefit) as a free standing abutment to replace lower left and right molars of 44-year-old female patient. Form the foregoing procedure, the author obtained the following results. 1. Free-standing $Br{\aa}nrmark$ and I.T.I. Hollow screw implants(Benefit) could be used to replace molars effectively without reduction of adjacent natural teeth, 2. Rotation of occlusal gold screw of $Br{\aa}nrmark$ implants was observed under occlusal force. 3. Adjustment of height of I.T.I. abutments was necessary in the mandibular second molar because of the limited occlusal clearance. 4. Form the oral examination, patient comments, panoramic and periapical radiographs, there were no pain, gingival imflammation and mobility, but slight reduction of alveolar bone level was shown around both implant systems. 5. Patient comments were comfortable on both systems. but the patient complained about economic problem of $Br{\aa}nrmark$ system and long treatment treatment time of both systems.

Glycyrrhizae Radix, the dried roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra or Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fischer(Legumino-sae), has been used as a medicine for treatment of imflammation, arthritis, respiratory ailment, skin diseases and liver problems. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of 70% ethanol extract, 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid, glycyrol and carbenoxolone disodium from Glycyrrhizae Radix on gastritis and gastric cancer. Using these materials, we tested antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori, antigastritic activity for HCI-ethanol-induced gastric lesion and the pylorus ligated gastric secretion with rats, and cell viability in gastric cancer cell. 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid and carbenoxolone disodium decreased the volume of gastric secretion and acid output in pylorus ligated rats. Also, carbenoxolone disodium had a strong effect of antibacterial activity on H. pylori. In addition 18-${\beta}$-glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrol reduced cell viability in human gastric cancer cells(AGS and SNU638 cell) in dose-dependent manner. The reduction of total acid output and gastric secretion as well as the anti-bacterial activity against H. pylori might account for the antigastritic effects of carbenoxolone disodium.

Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the protective effects and mechanisms of Salvia miltiorrhizae Radix extract (SME) on endotoxin shock.Methods : We used two models; LPS-induced sepsis model for in vivo model, and murine peritoneal macrophages responses for in vitro. SME was administrated orally to mice. After 1 hr, LPS was injected intraperitoneally. Survival rate was checked each time per 12 hr for 5 days. Mice were sacrificed 3 hr after LPS injection, then blood samples and organs were harvested. Cytokines secretion was measured by ELISA. Organs tissues were observed with microscope. Murine peritoneal macrophages were cultured for 1 hr either in a medium alone or in a medium that contained SME, as indicated. Then, the cells were treated with LPS for 24 hr. mRNA levels of cytokines were measured by real-time RT-PCR. Cytokine levels in the supernatants were measured by ELISA. The amount of nitrite was measured by using the Griess method to evaluate NO production. The cell lysates were analysed by Western blotting using antibodies for iNOS and β-actin was used as an internal control to monitor equal protein loading.Results : SME improverd the survival rate of mice model. SME inhibited the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and organs damages on Endotoxin Shock model. SME suppressed cytokine expression, cytokine secretion,NO production, iNOS expression in LPS-induced murine peritoneal macrophages.Conclusions : The results suggest that SME has protective effects on endotoxin shock through suppression of inflammatory cytokines, organ damages, NO production and so on.

Aplastic anemia is a disease characterized by general lack of bone marrow activity; It may affect not only the red blood cells but also the white blood cells and platelets, resulting in pancytopenia. Spontaneous gingival hemorrhage is present in some cases and it is related to the blood platelet deficiency. This case report presents the periodontal treatment of a patient with aplastic anemia. A 43-year-old female was referred for continuous gingival bleeding after periodontal treatment. Periodontal findings revealed generalized gingival imflammation, oozing of blood from gingival crevice, and it was diagnosed as adult periodontitis. Root planing and extraction of the upper left third molar with poor prognosis were put into operation after elevation of the platelet count with platelet transfusion. The extraction socket was sutured with 3-0 silk. Bleeding continued even after digital compression at the upper right second premolar, second molar, and left canine areas, which presented severe inflammation. Although platelets were transfused repeatedly, platelet count did not stay elevated since survival rate of the transfused platelets were low due to alloimmunization. Thrombin gauze packing was not effective. Bleeding ceased 3 days after treatment with transfusion of donor platelets. 20 days after the treatment, the gingiva was generally healthy except upper right second premolar and lateral incisor areas. The result of periodontal treatment was good, but bleeding control after treatment was troublesome. In the periodontal treatment of patient with aplastic anemia, elevation of the platelet count with platelet transfusion seems to be the best method for hemorrhage control.

Korean Sophora japonica has been found to posses an anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, Korean Sophora japonica extract, rutin, was used to know whether rutin inhibits to produce inflammatory mediators NO and TNF-$\alpha$ from the mouse peritoneal macrophages that were treated an inflammatory agent LPS. The rutin-1 hr pretreated macrophages were incubated with LPS for 0.5~5 hrs, and then collected the supernatant and the cell lysate for measurements of the level of iNOS, NO, TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA, TNF-$\alpha$, and p-NF-${\kappa}B$. Minimal and maximal effective doses of the rutin on them were 1 and $100{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The maximal effective dose of rutin certainly inhibted the productions of iNOS, NO, TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA, TNF-$\alpha$and p-NF-${\kappa}B$ from the LPS-treated macrophages (p<0.0001). Its $ED_{50}$ for inhibition of TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA and p-NF-${\kappa}B$ was $5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, and for iNOS, NO, and TNF-$\alpha$ was $10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The rutin did not have any cytotoxic effect. As the results, the Sophora japonica rutin could be a good candidate for an anti-inflammatory action.

본 연구는 제주에서 자생하는 산박하(Isodon inflexus (Thunb.) Kudo, I. inflexus (Thunb.) Kudo )의 80% 메탄올 추출물과 분획물, 그리고 분리 물질인 henryin의 항산화능 및 항염증에 관하여 조사한 것이다. 항산화 효과는 DPPH 라디칼 소거, xanthine oxidase 억제 및 superoxide radical 소거 활성 측정을 통하여 수행할 수 있는데, 산박하 추출물의 효능을 측정한 결과 superoxide radical 소거 활성에서 에틸아세테이트 분획물과 부탄올 분획물의 $IC_{50}$값이 각각 $0.9{\mu}g/mL$, $0.2{\mu}g/mL$로 대조군인 allopurinol ($2.2{\mu}g/mL$)에 비해 우수한 억제 효능을 나타내었다. RAW 264.7 세포주를 사용한 항염 효능 평가에서, 에틸아세테이트 분획물이 강한 NO 억제 효과를 나타내었고, 이 분획으로부터 순수 분리하여 구조 동정된 물질인 henryin 역시 농도 의존적으로 NO 억제시킴을 확인하였다. 특히, 에틸아세테이트 분획물과 henryin은 iNOS, COX-2와 염증관련 cytokine인 TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-$1{\beta}$의 mRNA 발현을 농도 의존적으로 억제하였다. 이상의 결과들로부터 산박하 에틸아세테이트 추출물이 항산화 및 항염증 효능을 갖는 화장품 원료로서 개발 가능성이 있고 henryin은 기능성 지표물질로 활용될 수 있음이 시사되었다.
