To increase skin permeability of LMWH (Low Molecular Weight Heparin), ultradeformable liposomes were developed. Ultradeformable liposomes were developed by Egg phosphatidylcholine (Egg-PC) and edge activator. Entrapment efficiency, vesicle size and zeta potential of vesicles were determined and characterized for deformability and stability. Transepidermal permeation of LMWH was compared to saturated aqueous control in vitro. The steady-state flux and its maximum time were calculated from the flux curves. (omitted)

The correlation between in vitro Congo-red binding properties of E coli and in vivo invasiveness of the organisms in SPF chickens and mice was investigated. Congo-red positive E coli colonies were dark-red color with a typical colonial morphology of rough appearance when grown on Congo-red medium, while Congo-red negative colonies showed pale-pink color and smooth surfaced colonial morphology. Pathogenicity of 10 Congo-red positive E coli for mice was observed in 92.5% but that of 5 Congo-red negative E coli was 45%. Invasiveness of 10 Congo-red positive E coli for chickens was observed in 96% of the SPF chickens tested but that of 5 Congo-red negative E coli was 16% only. These results of pathogenicity studies with E coli isolates indicate a significant correlation between Congo-red binding ability and virulence in avian Escherichia coli.

Purpose: Titanium implants are widely used in the treatment of dentition defects; however, due to problems such as osseointegration failure, peri-implant bone resorption, and periimplant inflammation, their application is subject to certain restrictions. The surface modification of titanium implants can improve the implant success rate and meet the needs of clinical applications. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of the use of porous titanium with a chitosan/hydroxyapatite coating on osseointegration. Methods: Titanium implants with a dense core and a porous outer structure were prepared using a computer-aided design model and selective laser sintering technology, with a fabricated chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite coating on their surfaces. In vivo and in vitro experiments were used to assess osteogenesis. Results: The quasi-elastic gradient and compressive strength of porous titanium implants were observed to decrease as the porosity increased. The in vitro experiments demonstrated that, the porous titanium implants had no biological toxicity; additionally, the porous structure was shown to be superior to dense titanium with regard to facilitating the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. The in vivo experimental results also showed that the porous structure was beneficial, as bone tissue could grow into the pores, thereby exhibiting good osseointegration. Conclusions: Porous titanium with a chitosan/hydroxyapatite coating promoted MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and differentiation, and also improved osseointegration in vitro. This study has meaningful implications for research into ways of improving the surface structures of implants and promoting implant osseointegration.

The leaves of Phaleria nisidai Kaneh. have been used as a beverage for tonic and immune-enhancing effect in Palau. Recently, extract of the plants showed anti-diabetic effect in clinical trial and possibility could be used as a medicine for diabetes. However, in vitro and in vivo experiments which elucidate cytotoxicity and biological mechanism have not been studied yet. To begin the series of in vitro and in vivo anti-diabetic studies, we evaluated cell viability of pancreatic beta cell lines to figure it out toxicity of the extract. The leaves of Phaleria nisidai were extracted with distilled water and 70% EtOH, and followed by evaporation and lyophilization. And, MIN6 and RIN-m5F cell lines were used for assessment of cell viability. MTT assay was adopted to evaluated a toxicity. Any of extract and concentration used in this study did not show cytotoxicity in the cell lines. Furthermore, morphological change was not observed. These results means Phaleria nisidai might be a medicinal resource when further biological and safety studies would be performed.

Objectives: Although information on the toxicity of phthalate diesters is readily available, little is known about phthalate alternatives. The present article provides a summary of available information on the toxicity of phthalate diesters and their alternatives, with a special focus on estrogenicity and androgenicity. Methods: We collected a battery of in vitro and in vivo assay data from the literature to assess the estrogenicity/anti-estrogenicity and androgenicity/anti-androgenicity of 15 phthalate diesters and 21 phthalate alternatives. Results: A number of in vitro studies show that certain phthalate diesters can bind to estrogen receptors and have a weak estrogenic potential. However, this potential was not seen in in vivo studies. Phthalate diesters produced anti-androgenic effects in animals by reducing testosterone production. Among them, di-(2-ethyl-hexyl) phthalate (DEHP) was the most potent. While almost all phthalate alternatives have a lower toxic potential than does DEHP, evidence of reproductive toxicity and estrogenic potential were found in several substances. Conclusion: Significant data gaps exist for phthalate alternatives regarding reproductive endocrine disruption, requiring further investigation.

식품오염 관련 중금속들의 에스트로겐성을 in vitro 와 in vivo 분석방법을 병행하여 평가하였다. 분석방법은 1) estrogen receptor dependent transcriptional expression 분석법, 2) E-screen assay 그리고, 3) 마우스 자궁비대시험 (uterotropic assay)을 사용하였다. 시험에 사용한 물질로는 $17\beta$-estradiol, diethylstilbestrol(DES), arsenic oxide, bis (tri-n-butyltin), cadmium chloride, chromium chloride, lead acetate, mercuric chloride을 사용하였다. Estrogen receptor dependent transcriptional expression 분석 결과, bis(tri-nbutyltin) > cadmium chloride > chromium chloride 순으로 에스트로겐성이 크게 나타났으며, mercuric chloride, lead acetate, arsenic oxide는 거의 나타나지 않았다. E-screen test 결과, bis(tri-n-butyltin) > cadmium chloride > chromium chloride 순으로 에스트로겐성이 크게 나타났으며, mercuric chloride, lead acetate, arsenic oxide는 거의 나타나지 않았다. 자궁비대시험 결과도 마찬가지로 bis(tri-nbutyltin), cadmium chloride, chromium chloride은 자궁중량 비대를 크게 초래하였으며, 반면에 mercuric chloride, lead acetate, arsenic oxide는 그러한 효과가 미약하거나 없었다. 세 분석방법 결과 bis(tri-n-butyltin), cadmium chloride, chromium chloride 순으로 에스트로겐성이 크게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 최근 bis(tri-n-butyltin)과 cadmium chloride이 에스트로겐성이 있다는 다른 연구결과들과 잘 일치하며, 또한 크롬화합물도 에스트로겐성이 있다는 것을 새롭게 제시하고 있다. 본 연구는 세 단계 수준(전사활성화단계, 세포증식작용, in vivo assay)의 분석을 병행함으로써 수많은 중금속의 에스트로겐성을 효과적으로 평가할 수 있다는 것을 제시해주고 있다.

This study was carried out to establish an effective and practical system for commercialization of embryo production techniques by analyzing several factors influencing in vivo embryo production on condition of donors treated FSH-P and SUPER-OV in Korean native cattle. In vivo embryos were flushed 226 times from 128 donors. The results obtained for the factors influencing in vivo embryo production by conditionof donors treated FSH-P and SUPER-OV were as follows :1. Age and parity of donors did not affect the transferable and freezable embryos among the treatments in FSH-P but the transferable and freezable embryos were decreased after 6 years old and 4th parity in SUPER-OV(P<0.01). 2. The production of embryos on the weight of donors was higher in over 400kg of body weight in FSH-P(P<0.01) and was higher in over 450kg than 400~450kg of body weight in SUPER-OV(P<0.05). For FSH-P embryo production was better responded in 350~450kg of body weight with 30~32mg doses, and showed a better result in over 450kg body weight with 32~34mg doses.(Key Words : in vivo embryo, donors, FSH-P SUPER-OV)

The first part of this study reviewed the characteristics of calcium hydroxide ($Ca(OH)_2$) and summarized the results of in vitro studies related to its antimicrobial effects. The second part of this review covers in vivo studies including human clinical studies and animal studies. The use of $Ca(OH)_2$ as an intracanal medicament represented better histological results in animal studies. However, human clinical studies showed limited antimicrobial effects that microorganisms were reduced but not eliminated through the treatment, and that some species had resistance to $Ca(OH)_2$. Most of clinical outcome studies supported that there is no improvement in healing of periapical lesions when $Ca(OH)_2$ was applied between appointments. Further studies are required for the antimicrobial effects of $Ca(OH)_2$, and search for the ideal material and technique to completely clean infected root canals should be continued.

This study investigated the effects of recombinant eel gonadotropin hormone (rJeGTH) produced in silkworms, with and without a carboxyl-terminal peptide from equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG), on the induction of sexual maturation in female eels Anguilla japonica. Experiments were conducted both in vivo and in vitro. In in vitro trials, germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) induction did not significantly differ between rJeFSH and $rJeFSH{\cdot}eCG$ treatments and the control group. However, previous studies did find that rJeLH and $rJeLH{\cdot}eCG$ treatments induced GVBD in female eels. Our in vitro exploration of $estradiol-17{\beta}$ ($E_2$) levels in immature ovarian tissues revealed significantly higher $E_2$ levels in the group treated with $rJeFSH{\cdot}eCG$ $1{\mu}g/mL$ than in the control group. In contrast, the in vivo experiments showed no effect of recombinant hormones on the sexual maturation of feminized eels. Previous studies and our own in vitro results have clearly shown that rJeGTH and $rJeGTH{\cdot}eCG$ have a positive effect on the sexual maturation of feminized eels. To develop the activity of rJeGTH in vivo, further studies should confirm circulation time and activity of these hormones in eels' bloodstream, modify the structure of the recombinant gene, and implement additional glycosylation.
