안전방안에서 여포난자가 성숙한다는 것이 몇가지 동물을 이용한 실험에서 밝혀진 바가 있었거니와 여포 난자가 異種의 안전방내에서도 성숙이 가능한 가를 보기 위하여 본 실험을 행하였다. 토끼의 경우 자체의 안전방내에 이식한 여포난자가 다른 동물 즉 흰쥐나 흰생쥐의 안전방에 이식하였을 때보다 낮은 성숙률을 보여 주고 있을 뿐, 흰쥐, 흰생쥐들은 각각 상호간의 안전방에 이식하였을때 同種의 다른 개체의 안정방에서 얻은 결과보다 훨씬 좋은 성숙률을 나타내고 있다. 특히 흰쥐의 여포난자는 숫컷 흰쥐의 안전방에서 24시간 사이에 76%가 제 1및 제 2차 분렬의 증기에 있으며 같은 종류의 수컷 생쥐의 안전방에서 55%가 성숙한 것 보다 훨씬 높은 율을 보여주고 있는 것이다. 안전방의 전방수가 함유단백질의 양이거나 삼투압에 있어서 일반체액이거나 표준배양액의 것들과는 크게 다르며 세포나 조직의 배양액으로는 그다지 적당한 것으로 보이지 않으나 여포난자의 활성획득에는 큰 영향이 없다할 것이다. 특히 異種간의 이식실험에서 얻은 결과가 자체거나 同種간의 이식실험과 거의 같거나 오히려 더 나은 성과를 보여주고 있는데, 는 그 이유에 대해 더 밝혀야 할 문제로 본다. 단지 난자는 성숙분렬을 위한 활성을 갖는데 난자자체의 구성성분 즉 난황물질의 양에 크게 좌우되는 것같으며 또한 난자가 배양될 안전방의 환경요인이 성숙률을 결정하는 데 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 보인다.

Single intravenous and oral administration to SD rats and ICR mice of both sexes were performed to investigate the acute toxicity of DWC-751, a new parenteral cephalosporin. $LD_50$ values for ICR mice and SD rats administered intravenously with DWC-751 were as follows; 1151.1 mg/kg (male SD rat), 1183.5 mg/kg (female SD rat), 2698.1 mg/kg (male ICR mouse), 2833.0 mg/kg (female ICR mouse). It is suggested that $LD_50$ values in rats and mice of both sexes would be 5000 mg/kg in oral route. Major general symptoms induced by injection intravenously with DWC-751 are decreased motor activity, increased respiratory rate, tremor and convulsion. In oral route, piloerection and soft stool are observed to 4 day after administration. No significant body weight changes were observed at any level in the groups administered with DWC-751. The gross finding of rats administered intravenously was observed cecum distension.

This study was conducted to investigate whether the obesity of obese fa/fa male Zucker rats can be ameliorated by mulberry leaves. There was no significant difference between mulberry treatment group and control group in body weight gain and food efficiency ratio. It also showed decreases on plasma triglyceride and total-cholesterol concentration compared to the control group. But there was no change in plasma leptin concentration between the control and mulberry treatment groups. These results suggest that mulberry leaves reduce serum lipid levels, but do not effect the plasma leptin concentration.

Kami-honghwa-tang(KH-19) is a prescription for reducing the side effect of radiotherapy. In this study, safety of KH-19 was evaluated by GLP guideline of Korea Food and Drug Administration. In acute oral toxicity study on rat, transient inhibition of weight increase was shown, but change in general symptom was not detected. No dead animal was observed up to 5,000 mg/kg in both male and female animals. In acute oral toxicity study on Beagle dog, transient vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, and weight reduction was observed. However, no dead animal was observed up to 2,000 mg/kg in both male and female animals.

Effect of Compound-A, a phenylpropanoid isolated from Arctium lappa fruit, on the reversed cutaneous anaphylaxis (RCA) and complement-dependent hypersensitivity (CDH) were studied in SD male rats and ICR male mice, respectively. RCA and hemolysin (HY) titer test are related to reaction of Type II Hypersensitivity. Experiments were carried out to determine RCA as the edema of skin two hours after injection of 0.05 ml/site of anti-rat serum rabbit serum in SD rat. Drugs were orally administered one hour before antigen challenge. (omitted)

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine effects of decreased locomotor activity on mass, Type I and II fiber cross-sectional areas of ipsilateral and contralateral hindlimb muscles 21 days after establishing the Parkinson's disease rat model. Methods: The rat model was established by direct injection of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA, 50 ${mu}g$) into the left substantia nigra after stereotaxic surgery. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to one of two groups; the Parkinson's disease group (PD; n=17) and a sham group (S; n=8). Locomotor activity was assessed before and 21 days after the experiment. At 22 days after establishing the rat model, all rats were anesthetized and soleus and plantaris muscles were dissected from both ipsilateral and contralateral sides. The brain was dissected to identify dopaminergic neuronal death of substantia nigra in the PD group. Results: The PD group at 21 days after establishing the Parkinson's disease rat model showed significant decrease in locomotor activity compared with the S group. Weights and Type I and II fiber cross-sectional areas of the contralateral soleus muscle of the PD group were significantly lower than those of the S group. Conclusion: Contralateral soleus muscle atrophy occurs 21 days after establishing the Parkinson's disease rat model.

Dose-dependent pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen was studied in the rat. Acetaminophen was injected intravenously at doses of 10, 30, 50, 100 and 200mg/kg to the adult male rats. The well-known dose-dependent pharmacokinetic behavior was found even at 30mg/kg dose. It implies that metabolism of acetaminophen in the liver, probably sulfation, is saturated at very low concentration of acetaminophen. Dosage regimen establishment based on this characteristics would be necessary even at usual does level (300-600mg/day/body).

Present studies were carried out in order to estabilish the bronchoalveolar lavage method and to examine the response of bleomycin and peplomycin on the total cell number and the subpoulations of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. A total of 24 male F344 rats, weighing 300-350 mg, were divided into 3 groups. Animals recelved either belomycin (BLM` 0.75 mg/0.2 ml/rat), peplomycin (PLM` 0.25mg/0.2ml/rat) for groups 2 and 3 or an equal volume of sterile saline lacking drugs for controls (group 1).

Objective : This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Panax Ginseng (인삼) on the sperm motility and spermatogenesis in the male rat. Methods : We used 8-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats, and administered the extract powder of Panax Ginseng to 5 rats (treated group) and normal saline (control group) once a day for 28 days. We isolated their testes surgically, then observed the change of the body weights before and after administration of Panax Ginseng extracts and normal saline. We observed the weight of the testes, epididymis, vascular gland, and prostate. Also, we examined the total, normal motile sperm concentration, and the concentration of testicular catalase and peroxidase. Results : We found that the concentration of normal, motile sperm in the testes of the Panax Ginseng group showed a significant difference compared with the control group. The angiogenesis of the seminiferous tubule was increased and the increasement of the number of spermatogonia, primary and secondary spermatocyte was observed in the Panax Ginseng group through a microscope. The body weight, the weight of the testes, epididymis, prostate and the concentration of testicular catalase and peroxidase were higher in the Panax Ginseng group but showed no significant difference. Conclusion : This study shows that Panax Ginseng may have an effect on the morphology and motility of sperm, the important factor in male fertility, and can promote the concentration of antioxidants, catalase and peroxidase, which is the important factor in spermatogenesis.

Objectives The object of this study was to evaluate the effect of Yikgeebohyul-tang aqueous extracts (YKBHT) on the propylthiouracil (PTU)-induced rat hypothyroidism. Methods The rats were divided into 6 groups : intact vehicle control, PTU control, LT4, YKBHT 500, 250 and 125 mg/kg treated groups. Hypothyroidism was induced by daily subcutaneous treatment of PTU 10 mg/kg for 28 days. YKBHT aqueous extracts were administered once a day as an oral dose of 500, 250 and 125 mg/kg for 42 days. The changes were observed : weight of body, thyroid gland, liver, testis, epididymis and prostate, serum thyroid hormone levels, serum male sex hormone levels, serum lipid profiles, liver and testis antioxidant system. These results were compared with LT4 0.5 mg/kg intraperitoneally treated rats. Results These PTU induced hypothyroidism and related hepatic and male reproductive organ damages were favorably and dose-dependently inhibited by treatment of YKBHT 500, 250 and 125 mg/kg, and YKBHT also effectively regulated the PTU-induced abnormal antioxidant defense factor changes in the both liver and testis. Although, LT4 also inhibited PTU-induced hypothyroidism and relative liver damages. But it deteriorated the hypothyroidism related testis, epididymis and prostate damages through testicular oxidative damages. Conclusions : The result of this study suggests that YKBHT has favorable effects on the hypothyroidism and related liver and reproductive organ damages with augmentation of antioxidant defense factor in the testis and liver. YKBHT 500, 250 and 125 mg/kg dose-dependently inhibited PTU-induced hypothyroidism and related liver and male reproductive organ damages in rats.
