본 연구에서는 정상 세포인 간상피세포를 이용하여 BHT와 PG가 GJIC에 미치는 효과 및 그 작용 기전을 살펴보았다. BHT와 PG를 WB-F344세포에 각각 1.0mM, 0.75mM 이상 처리한 결과, 세포 생육이 80%이하로 저하되어 세포 독성을 보였고, BHT와 PG의 GJIC에 대한 억제효과는 이보다 낮은 농도인 0.6mM, 0.1mM에서 나타났으며 처리에 따른 Cx43 단백질의 발현 및 인산화를 측정한 결과, BHT와 PG 모두 농도의존적으로 Cx43의 인산화가 증가하였고, Cx43의 구조적 변화와 관련된 MAP kinase는 주요 biomarker인 ERK, p38, JNK의 발현 및 인산화를 측정한 결과, 농도의존적으로 ERK와 p38의 인산화가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 WB-F344세포에 BHT와 PG의 처리가 세포독성을 나타내기 전 농도에서 GJIC의 억제하였음을 의미하며 이는 식품첨가물의 안전성 평가에도 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구는 1971년과 1972년 9월 25일에 수확한 흥옥과 동년 10월 25일에 수확한 국광을 시료로하여 이들 사과의 저장에 있어서 환경압력 및 환경기체조성이 사과조직내 기체조성과 호흡 및 ethylene 생성에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 실험하였던 바 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 과실조직내 기체량은 환경압력에 비례적으로 변화하며, 환경압력이 사과의 조직내 기체조성 및 기체량에 현저하게 영향을 미쳤다. 2. 조직내 $CO_2$발생량의 증가는 조직내 $O_2$ 소비량에 관련되며, 그러므로 내부 $O_2$ 소비의 감소되는 시기와 호흡에 있어서 climacteric rise의 시기와 일치하였다. 3. $CO_2$ 발생량의 증가는 ethylene 생성 후에 나타나며 그리고 상압구의 이와 같은 현상은 감압구에 잇달아 일어난다. 4. 감압저장에 있어서도 저산소농도와 고탄산가스농도의 조절로써 CA효과를 얻을 수 있다.

Parenchyma of the cat pineal body consisted of pinealocytes and glial cells. The pinealocyte, predominant cell type, was characterized by having large mitochondria with pale matrix, abundant polyribosomes, moderately-developed Golgi apparatus, centrioles and occasional cilia. The pinealocyte had one thick and long cytoplasmic process at the one pole of the cell, and slender and shorter processes at the other pole, and in addition occasional short processes from the cell body. These processes contained longitudinally arranged microtubules, and a few mitochondria. Thick processes teminated as bulgings either in the intercellular process-rich area, or in the perivascular border which was formed by glial cell processes. These endings of pinealocyte processes had many small vesicles, mitochondria, and occasional dense bodies. Glial cells with abundant filaments of intermediate type and clear cytoplasmic matrix were fibrous astrocyte. Perikarya of the astrocytes had small and dense mitochondria, moderately developed Golgi apparatus, dense bodies and variable amount of intermediate filaments. Glial cell processes run through the intercellular spaces among the pinealocyte processes. Glial cell of protoplasmic type had no or a few filaments, but it had well-organized rough endoplasmic reticulum, dense mitochondria, well developed Golgi apparatus and many dense granules. Intercellular canaliculi formed by adjacent pinealocytes and glial cell processes were often noted. Within the parenchyma, sympathetic and parasympathetic axons and their endings were noted. These endings were present mostly in the intercellular spaces without having membrane specialization, however, in rare instances, ending with small clear and dense cored vesicles, and large dense cored vesicles formed specialized synapse with a pinealocyte process. Within the perivascular spaces nerve fibers and endings, Schwann cells and pericyte were noted. In rare case pinealocyte process penetrated into the perivascular space through the interuptions of glial border. These results suggest that pinealocyte of the cat has less significance in secretory function and is rather neural type of cell.

This study was conducted with ginseng plants to investigate photosynthetic response to changes of light intensity and leaf temperature. $CO_2$ uptake in diurnal course was highest in the first phase (8 00~5 : 30 Am.) on May 30, 1992. In $CO_2$ uptake related to stomatal conductance, these relationship was synchronized in diurnal course, but relationship between TEX>$CO_2$ uptake and intercellular $CO_2$ concentration in diurnal course was synchronized oppositely. Leaf temperature and light intensity at the highest $CO_2$ uptake were in the range of 23~$24^{\circ}C$) and 95$\mu$mol.$m^{-2}$.$s^{-1}$), $CO_2$ , respectively. In response to an increasing light intensity under a constant leaf temperature ($18^{\circ}C$), $CO_2$ uptake was increased throughout the light intensity sequence up to 250$\mu$mol.$m^{-2}$.$s^{-1}$), $CO_2$ When $CO_2$ uptake was measured with a series of leaf temperature under a constant light intensity (250 $\mu$mol.$m^{-2}$.$s^{-1}$), $CO_2$ uptake was highest at $18^{\circ}C$ as a 4.1$\mu$mol.$m^{-2}$.$s^{-1}$), $CO_2$ . Similar changes were also observed in stomatal conductance and intercellular $CO_2$ concentration. Evidences from several approaches indicate that synchronization of $CO_2$ uptake, stomatal conductance and intercellular $CO_2$ concentration were closely inter-related and changes of leaf temperature iuluenced the photo-response in photosynthetic processes.

본 연구는 비수술적 중기 발암성 모델과 gap junction intercellular communication(GJIC)수식을 이용하여 태국에서 회춘약으로 알려진 Pueraria mirfica (Kawo Keur)식물의 항암 및 발암성 유무의 관계를 알아보기 위해 실시했다. 비수술적 중기 발암성 모델 시험의 경우, Pueraria mirifica 식물이 수컷 F344 랫드에 대하여 전암 병변의 발달에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알기 위한 것으로 GST-p양성 병소의 수와 면적을 측정하여 그 수식 효과를 알아보았다. 6주령의 수컷 F344 랫트를 10 개군으로 나누어 간암을 유발하기 위하여 모든 동물에 대하여 시험 시작일에 200 mg/kg의 DEN을 투여하였고, 2주와 5주 말에 각각 300mg/kg의 DGA를 복강 투여하였다. 3군에서 6군까지에 대해서는 sodium phenobarbital을 0.05%의 농도로 음수 투여하였으며, 2군에 대해서는 발암유발 후의 6주 동안 AIN-76A에 10mg/kg의 PM 혼합 사료를, 6군은 시험 전 기간에 걸쳐 8주 동안 10mg/kg의 PM 혼합사료를 급여한 군이다. 또한, 7, 8, 9 및 10군은 2, 4, 5 및 6군과 같은 방법으로 1000mg/kg의 PM을 투여한 군으로 모든 동물은 DEN 투여 후 8주 째에 부검하였다. GST-p 면역염색 결과 양성 병소의 면적과 수에서 10mg/kg의 PM을 투여한 군들은 대조군과 비교시 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았고, 1000mg/kg의 PM을 투여한 7, 8, 9 및 10군에서도 GST-p 양성 병소의 수와 면적에서 대조군과 비교해 보았을 때 유의한 차이를 관찰할 수 없었다. 또한 PM이 gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC)수식에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 조사하기 위하여 사람 피부세포에서 SL/DT assay를 실시해 보았으나 이러한 gap junction assay에서도 PM은 GJIC에 영향을 주지 않았다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 Pueraria mirifica는 랫드에서의 실험적 간암 발생과정과 human keratinocyte에 gap junction intercellular communication에서 수식 효과를 가지고 있지 않는 것으로 보아 항암 및 발암성 여부와 관련이 없는 것으로 사료된다.

We collected airborne complex mixtures in a industrial area of Yeochun, and examined whether these complex mixtures could affect gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in a cultured WBF-344 rat liver epithelial cells (LEC). Since the reduction of GJIC plays an important role in chemical carcinogenesis, measurement of changes of GJIC is a meaningful method to screen carcinogenicity of these mixtures. High and low volume samples were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and tested. Blank filter extractions were also examined for exclud-ing possible toxicity of filter itself, and TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) and DMSO were used as positive and negative control, respectively. When the cells were exposed to samples at concentration below that required to maintain rather than 85% cell viability based on the result of neutral red uptake assay, maximal inhibition of GJIC was observed at 1hr after treatment with both high and low volume samples by scrape-loading dye transfer assay. In fluorescence recovery after photobleaching assay, recovery rates via gap junctions were 33%/min in high volume sample and 62%/min in low volume sample. In together, airborne samples collected in Yeochun inhibited GJIC in a cultured WBF-344 rat LEC. These results suggest airborne samples tested in this experiment may attribute to cause a certain type and degree of cancers in in vivo when exposured for some periods.

Plasmodesmata (PDs) are specialized intercellular channels that facilitate the exchange of various molecules, including sugars, ribonucleoprotein complexes, transcription factors, and mRNA. Their diameters, estimated to be 2.5 nm in the neck region, are too small to transfer viruses or viral genomes. Tobacco mosaic virus and Potexviruses are the most extensively studied viruses. In viruses, the movement protein (MP) is responsible for the PD gating that allows the intercellular movement of viral genomes. Various host factors interact with MP to regulate complicated mechanisms related to PD gating. Virus replication and assembly occur in viral replication complex (VRC) with membrane association, especially in the endoplasmic reticulum. VRC have a highly organized structure and are highly regulated by interactions among the various host factors, proteins encoded by the viral genome, and the viral genome. Virus trafficking requires host machineries, such as the cytoskeleton and the secretory systems. MP facilitates the virus replication and movement process. Despite the current level of understanding of virus movement, there are still many unknown and complex interactions between virus replication and virus movement. While numerous studies have been conducted to understand plant viruses with regards to cell-to-cell movement and replication, there are still many knowledge gaps. To study these interactions, adequate research tools must be used such as molecular, and biochemical techniques. Without such tools, virologists will not be able to gain an accurate or detailed understanding of the virus infection process.
