  • As a part of the epidemiological studies of clonorchiasis, this study was conducted to evaluate the current endemicity and the natural transition of the Clonorchis infection in Gimhae Gun and delta area a high endemic area in Korea in recent years, prior to the introduction of praziquantel which will eventually influence the status of the prevalence. The data obtained in this study in 1983 were evaluated for natural transition of the infection in comparison with those obtained 16 years ago in 1967 by the author(Kim, 1974). The areas of investigation, villages and schools surveyed, methods and techniques used in this study were the same as in 1967, except for the contents of the questionnaire for raw freshwater fish consumption by the local inhabitants. 1) The prevalence rate of clonorchiasis in the general population of the villages was 48.1% on the average out of a total of 484 persons examined. The average of those of the riverside-delta area was 65.2% and 43.0% in the inland area. Among the schoolchildren, the prevalence rate was 8.2% on the average out of a total of 1,423 examined. By area, the prevalence rate was 10.8% in the riverside delta area and 2.8% in the inland area. By sex, difference in the prevalence was seen only in the inhabitants of the inland area showing 52.4% in the male and 33.5% in the female. 2) In the natural transition of the infection, the prevalence rate among the inhabitants has decreased from 68.8% in 1967 to 48.1% in 1983, and in the schoolchildren from 56.4% in 1967 to 8.2% in 1983. The reduction rate was higher in the riverside-delta area than in the inland area. 3) In the prevalence rate by age, 11.9% was first seen in the 5-9 age group and the rate gradually increased up to 75.0% in the 50-59 age group. By sex, the rate was higher in the male than in the female in the 20-29 age group and over. 4) In the natural transition of the prevalence rate by age, the reduction rate of the infection during the past 16 years was greater in the younger age groups up to the 40-49 age group and reached the same level in the age group 50-59. Reduction was seen again in the age group over 60s. By sex, the reduction rate was greater in the female than in the male in the 20-29 age group and over. By area, the reduction rate was greater in the riverside delta area than in the inland area, particularly in the young age groups. 5) In the intensity of the infection among the cases, the mean egg out-put per mg feces per infected cases(EPmg) in the inhabitants was 6.3. EPmg of those of the river-side-delta area was 15.4 and that of the in-land was 2.8. On the other hand, in the schoolchildren, EPmg was 3.2, and no difference was seen between the two areas, the river-side-delta area and the inland area. 6) In the transition of the intensity of the infection by area, EPmg among the inhabitants inexplically increased from 7.8 in 1967 to 15.4 in 1983. This was probably caused by uneven specimen collection in the process of sampling the population. EPmg of the inhabitants in the inland area and those of the schoolchildren of both riverside delta and inland areas showed a similar decrease in the past 16 years. 7) The intensity of the infection by age showed a relatively low level in the 20-29 age group and below, and EPmg 5.1-9.5 was seen in the 30-39 age group and over. Sex, Epmg was 5.8 in the male and 4.7 the female. By in 8) In the transition of the intensity of the infection, EPmg decreased from 6.2 in 1967 to 5.4 in 1983. By age, in contrast to the figures of 1967 in which EPmg gradually increased with some fluctuation from 1.1 in the 0-4 age group to peak 10.5 in the 50-59 age group, in 1983 lower intensity of the infection was seen in the age group from 10-14 to 20-29 with the EPmg range of 0.6-2.7. 9) In the distribution of the clonorchiasis cases by the range of EPmg value, 43.2% of the cases were in 0.1 0.9 and 34.6% in 1.0-4.9. As a whole by cumulative percent, 44.6% of them were under 0.9 as light infection and 86.1% of them under 9.9 up to moderate infection. By sex, no difference was seen in Epmg. 10) In the transition of the distribution by the range of Epmg, the cases were distributed up to the range 80.0-99.9 in 1967 and to 60.0-79.9 in 1983. By cumulative percent, in the range of 0.1-0.9 and less, light infection, 34.3% of them were distributed in 1967 and 44.6% in 1983 with about 10% increase. In the range of 5.0-9.9 and less, up to moderate infection, 83.2% in 1967 and 86.1% in 1983 of the cases were seen, respectively. 11) The practice of raw freshwater fish consumption among the inhabitants seems to have decreased in recent years. Those who admitted to raw freshwater fish consumption in the last two years among the infected inhabitants were 59.3%, although 86.8% of them professed to have experience with raw freshwater fish consumption. 31.7% of those who have had experience of the raw freshwater fish consumption denied any further consumption in recent years. From an interview of 543 school-children, 24.1% of them admitted to an experience of raw freshwater fish consumption. However, those who have practised in the past two years comprized 17.9%. Those who denied raw freshwater fish consumption in recent years among those who had such experience were 26.0% out of 131 interviewed. The rate of raw freshwater fish consumption in both inhabitants and schoolchildren were higher in the male than in the female. On the contrary, the rate of those who did not practise in recent years among those who had experience of raw freshwater fish consumption was higher in the female than in the male. 12) The major reason for the reduction of raw freshwater fish consumption among the local inhabitants was the risk of the fluke infection. However, it has become apparent that such change of taste has resulted from water pollution impact which has affected throughout the areas of the freshwater systems in this locality since last several years. 13) In animal survey, Clonorchis infection was seen in 14.8% of 88 dogs examined and 3.7% of 27 house rats examined. It was noted that populations of dogs and cats have increased in the villages surveyed. Although the prevalence rate was lower in the present survey than those of 1967, the significance of the animals as the reservoir host has not changed. 14) Prevalence rate of Clonorchis infection by cercariae in the first intermediate host, Parafossarulus manchouricus, was 0.6% out of 517 snails examined. The infection rate was lower in comparison with 2.3% out of 2,124 examined in 1967. Moreover, sharp decreases in number and distribution of the intermediate host snails in many watershed areas of the huge freshwater systems in this locality seemed to reduce transmission of Clonorchis in connection with the intermediate host stage of its life cycle. 15) Clonorchis infection in the second intermediate fish hosts was relatively low. The mean number of Clonorchis metacercaria per fish in Pseudorasbora parva was 517 in 1983, whereas it was 1943 in 1968 through 1969. Environmental water pollution has also caused the decreased fish population density in these areas, and this has also apparently affected to the practice of raw freshwater fish consumption among the local inhabitants. 16) In conclusion, endemicity of Clonorchis infection in Gimhae Gum and delta area of the Nagdong River has sharply decreased during the past 16 years. The major cause of the regressive transition of the infection was the water pollution of the land water systems of this locality. The pollution has upset the ecosystems comprizing of the intermediate hosts of Clonorchis in many areas, and also affected to a significant extent to the discontinuance of the local inhabitants for raw freshwater fish consumption.

  • 지부자(Kochiae Fructus)의 생리활성물질 검색 및 간손상에 미치는 영향을 연구할 목적으로 실험동물에 지부자 추출물을 경구 투여한 후 GaIN으로 간손상을 유발하여 혈액 및 간조직의 생화학적 변화를 관찰하고 free radical의 생성계와 해독계의 활성에 미치는 영향을 검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. GaIN 단독투여군은 대조군에 비하여 AST와 ALT가 증가하였으나, KFB, oleanolic acid, momordin Ic 투여군에서는 GaIN 단독투여군에 비해 유의적 감소를 보였다. 간조직의 지질과산화 함량은 GaIN 단독투여군이 대조군과 비교하여 증가하였고, KFM 200-GaIN군, KFB 200-GaIN군, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군은 대조군에는 미치지 못하였으나 GaIN 단독투여군에 비해 현저히 감소하였다. XO, AO의 활성은 대조군보다 GaIN 단독투여군에서 유의적으로 증가하였으며, KFB 200-GaIN군, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군의 XO와 AO의 활성은 GaIN 단독투여군보다 낮게 나타났다. 간조직 중의 GSH농도는 GaIN 단독투여군이 대조군에 비해 현저히 감소하였고, KFB 200-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군은 GaIN 단독투여군과 비교시 증가를 보였고, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군은 대조군에 가깝게 회복되었다. GaIN 단독투여군의 ${\gamma}$-GCS와 GR의 활성은 대조군에 비하여 유의한 감소를 보였고, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군의 ${\gamma}$ -GCS의 활성은 대조군에는 미치지 못하였지만 GaIN 단독투여군에 비해 유의하게 개선되었다. KFM 200-GaIN군, KFB 200-GaIN군, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군의 GR 활성은 GaIN 단독투여군보다 유의한 증가를 보였다. GST활성은 GaIN 단독투여군이 대조군에 비하여 현저한 감소를 나타내었고, KFM200-GaIN군, KFB 200-GaIN군, momordin Ic 30-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군은 대조군 수준에는 못미쳤으나 GaIN 단독투여군보다 통계적으로 유의한 증가를 관찰할 수 있었다. SOD, catalase 및 GSH-Px의 활성은 대조군에 비하여 GaIN 단독투여군에서 감소를 보였고, SOD와 catalase 활성은 KFM, KFB와 oleanolic acid의 투여로 GaIN 단독투여군보다 높게 나타났다. 특히 momordin Ic 30-GaIN군의 SOD 활성은 대조군에 가깝게 개선되었다. GSH-Px의 활성은 KFM 200-GaIN군, KFB 200-GaIN군과 oleanolic acid 30-GaIN군은 대조군 수준에는 미치지 못하였으나 GaIN 단독투여군에 비해 현저히 증가하였고, 특히 momordin Ic 30-GaIN군은 대조군에 가깝게 증가되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 지부자로부터 분리한 momordin Ic가 GSH 농도를 증가시키고 활성산소 해독계에 관여하는 효소의 활성을 증가시킴으로서 GaIN으로 인한 간손상을 완화시키는 것으로 사료되어진다.

  • 연구배경 : 기관지 천식등과 같은 만성 기도질환의 병태생리는 점액의 과분비, 배상세포의 과형성, 평활근의 비후와 호산구등의 염증세포의 침윤등으로 설명되고 있다. 배상세포의 증식에 대한 생화학적 기전은 이러한 양상을 만드는데 필요한 시간이 길고, 기도염증과 연관된 매우 복잡함 때문에 아직 잘 알려지지 않고 있다. 이에 본 저자들은 배상세포증식과 기도염증의 상관성을 알고자 그 첫 단계로 백서의 기관을 통한 $TiO_2$의 주입으로 단시간 내에 형성되는 배상세포증식의 동물 모형을 만들어 기도내 주로 어느 부위에서 배상세포의 과형성이 나타나는지 관찰하고 염증세포의 침윤 여부 및 dexamethasone 이 과형성된 배상세포 및 침윤된 염증세포에 대해 영향을 평가해 보고자 하였다. 방법 : 8주된 21마리의 수컷 Sprague-Dawley를 세 군으로 나누어서 첫 번째 군(group 1) 은 endotoxin-free water를 기관내 주입하고 두 번째 군(group 2)은 $TiO_2$를 주입을 하고 세 번째 군(group 3)은 $TiO_2$를 주입하고 dexamethasone을 $TiO_2$ 투여전날부터 희생전날까지 투여하였다. 흰쥐를 희생시켜 기관, 기관지와 폐 부위를 각각 절제하여 paraffin bloc을 만든 후 $4{\mu}m$의 section을 하여 PAS 염색한 후 각 부위에서의 상피세포에 대한 배상세포의 비를 구하여 각 군별로 비교하였고, Luna 염색으로 호산구의 침윤을 비교하였다. 결과 : 1. 기관에서의 배상세포의 비의 평균은 1군에서는 4.09$\pm$8.28%, 2군은 10.19$\pm$11.33%로 $TiO_2$를 주입한 2군에서 배상세포의 과형성을 관찰할 수 있었다 (P<0.01). 2. 주 기관지에서의 배상세포의 비의 평균은 1군에서 3.61$\pm$4.84%, 2군에서는 34.09$\pm$23.91%로 $TiO_2$를 주입한 2군에서 배상세포의 과형성을 관찰 할 수 있었다(P<0.01). 3. 세기관지 부위에서의 배상세포의 양성 incidence와 severity (R$\times$S)로 표시를 하였으며 이는 각각 1 군은 0, 2군은 0.3 이었다. 4. 침윤된 호산구는 1군(1.99$\pm$3.84%)에서보다 2군 (21.43$\pm$23.85%)에서 유의하게 증가되었다(p<0.05). 5. 1군, 2군, 3군의 주기관지내에서 배상세포의 과형성과 호산구 침윤간에는 의미있는 상관관계를 보였다(p=0.001). 6. dexamethasone이 배상세포의 과형성과 호산구의 침윤을 억제함을 관찰하였다. 결론 : 백서에서 $TiO_2$로 처치시 기도에서 배상세포의 과형성이 5일내에 주로 주 기관지에서 발생하였으며 호산구 침윤이 동반하는 배상세포 증식의 동물 모형이 만들어졌다. 배상세포의 과형성은 염증과 동반되며 dexamethasone 투여시 억제되므로, 배상세포의 증식기전 에서 기도내 염증과정이 주요한 역할을 하는 것으로 생각된다. 향 후 이러한 동물 모형은 배상세포 증식의 기전을 이해하는데 유용한 도구가 될 것으로 사료된다.

  • TCDD가 실험동물에 노출되었을 때 유발되는 생체독성을 예방 또는 억제할 수 있는 고려홍삼 추출물의 효과를 탐색하였다. 이를 위하여 TCDD($25\;{\mu}g/kg$ bw, 1회 투여)와 홍삼추출물(100 mg/kg bw, 격일투여)을 각각 단독 또는 병행 복강 투여한 다음 32일 동안에 체중과 각 장기들의 무게의 변화, 뇨 분석, 혈액학적 및 혈액화학적 변화를 관찰하였다. TCDD의 단독투여에 의하여 체중의 증가정도가 정상군 또는 홍삼단독 투여군의 체중증가율에 비하여 상당히 감소하였다. TCDD와 홍삼추출물을 병행 투여한 흰쥐에서의 체중증가율은 TCDD 단독투여에 의해 감소된 체중증가율을 다소 회복 시키는 결과를 나타내었다. TCDD를 단독 투여한 실험군에서는 간의 무게가 TCDD 투여 후 2, 5, 및 16일째에 대조군에 비하여 특이적으로 증가하는 특징을 보였으나, 홍삼추출물을 단독 투여한 실험군에서의 간의 무게는 대조군의 간의 무게에 비하여 다소 감소하였다. TCDD와 홍삼추출물이 병행 투여된 흰쥐에서의 간의 무게의 증가정도는 TCDD을 단독투여한 흰쥐 간의 무게에 비하여 약간 감소하였다. TCDD를 단독투여한 흰쥐에서의 신장(Kidney)의 무게는 대조군에 비하여 다소 감소하였으나 통계적으로는 유의하지 않았다. TCDD와 홍삼추출물을 병행투여한 흰쥐에서의 신장의 무게의 변화는 TCDD를 단독 투여한 흰쥐에서의 결과와 차이가 없었다. 홍삼추출물 단독 투여군에서의 신장의 무게는 실험초기(1-2일)에 대조군에 비하여 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 5일 째부터는 대조군과 같은 수준으로 회복되었다. Spleen은 TCDD의 단독투여에 의해 2-3일 이내에 일시적인 감소가 있었으나 노출기간이 증가할수록 대조군 수준으로 회복되었다. 홍삼추출물단독 투여군과 TCDD와 홍삼추출물의 병행투여군에서 spleen의 무게는 대조군에 비하여 투여 후 16일 이후에는 유의적으로 증가하였다. TCDD와 홍삼추출물의 단독 또는 병행 투여군에서의 뇌의 무게는 유의적인 변화를 보이지 않았다. 실험동물 뇨에서의 specific gravity는 대조군에서 주령에 상관없이 대체적으로 1.030 이상의 수준을 유지하였으나 홍삼추출물을 단독 투여한 흰쥐에서는 투여 후 14일부터 specific gravity가 1.02 수준으로 낮아지는 경향이 나타났다. TCDD 단독 투여군에서는 투여 초기에 specific gravity가 1.02 수준으로 감소하는 경향이 있었으나 홍삼추출물을 병행투여했을때 1.02 수준으로 감소하는 경향이 14일 이후에 나타났다. 실험동물 뇨에서의 Total protein 함량은 대조군에서 전체 실험기간 동안에 $100\;{\mu}g/dL$ 수준을 유지하였으나, TCDD 단독 투여군과 TCDD와 홍삼추출물의 병행 투여군에서는 $300\;{\mu}g/dL$ 이상의 함량을 나타내는 개체수가 증가하는 현상을 보였다. 한편, 홍삼추출물 단독 투여군에서는 대조군에서와 비슷한 Total protein 함량의 수준을 나타내었다. 뇨에서 ketone body의 함량은 대조군에서 주령의 증가에 따라 높아지는 경향을 나타내었으나 실험군 간의 차이는 나타나지 않았다. Glucose, ketone, bilirubin, Occult blood, nitrite 및 urobilinogen의 함량은 모든 실험군에서 거의 유사하게 나타났으며, pH 값은 주령의 증가에 따라 높아지는 경향이 특징적이었으나 실험군간의 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 혈액화학적 검사결과 TCDD의 단독투여에 의한 AST는 대조군에 비하여 전 실험기간에 걸쳐서 전반적으로 높게 나타났으며, 특히 32일 실험군에서 가장 높은 AST 값을 나타내었다. 홍삼추출물의 단독 투여에 의한 AST는 TCDD의 단독 투여군과는 대조적으로 오히려 노출기간이 경과할수록 감소하였다. 그리고 TCDD의 투여에 의해 증가된 AST는 홍삼추출물을 병행투여 한 지 16일부터 정상 수준으로 회복되었다. TCDD를 단독 투여한 흰쥐 혈청 ALT의 활성은 16일 까지는 대조군의 ALT 활성과 비슷한 수준이었으나 32일 째에는 대조군에 비하여 상당히 증가하였다. 이에 비하여 TCDD와 홍삼추출물을 병행 투여한 실험군에서는 16일군과 32일군에서 ALT의 활성이 급격히 감소하여 대조군의 ALT 활성보다 낮게 나타났다. 홍삼을 단독 투여한 실험군에서의 ALT 활성은 전 실험기간동안에 ALT 활성에 영향을 주지 않았다.

  • 본 연구는 스트레스에 의해 발생하는 위궤양에 대한 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)의 효과를 관찰하고자 시행되었다. 실험동물로는 Sprague-Dawley계 수컷 흰주 48마리를 사용하였으며 대조군(CO)과 3개의 투여군(E-1, E-2, E-3)으로 나누어 1996년 7월 29일부터 1996년 8월 25일까지 4주간 실험을 수행하였다. Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)는 1일 1회 경구투여하였으며, 각각 30mg/kg BW(E-1), 60mg/kg BW(E-1) 및 120mg/kg BW(E-3)의 농도를 수여하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 체중은 전 군에 걸쳐서 고르게 증가되었으며, 특히 실험시작 후 13일째의 체중증가량은 대조군에 비하여 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)를 투여한 실험군 E-2가 매우 유의하게 높았고(p<0.01), 실험군 E-3도 유의하게 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 식이효율은 2.12~3.02으로 군간에 유의한 차이는 나타내지 않았다. 2. 위, 간, 신장 및 비장의 중량을 측정한 결과 군간의 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않아TEk. 3. 위의 표면 pH를 측정한 결과 대조군에 비해서 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)를 투여한 실험군에서 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 4. Alcian Blue Staining을 통한 위점액량 산출결과 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)를 투여한 실험군이 대조군에 비해 전 농도에서 점액량이 높게 나타났으며, 실험군 E-1군은 유의하게 높았고 (p<0.05), 실험군 E-2의 경우 그 증가가 현저하였다(p<0.01). 이로써 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)가 위의 점액생성을 촉진시키거나 위에 보호막을 형성함으로써 위궤양 발생저하에 기여하는 것으로 보여진다. 5. shear rate 11.25, 45.0, 90.0 및 $225.0\;sec^{-1}$에서 전혈점도 및 혈장점도를 측정한 결과 모든 shear rate에서 C군>E-3군>E-1군>E-2군의 경향성을 보였다 E-1(30mg/kg BW)군의 전혈점도는 대조군에 비하여 shear rate 11.25, $45.0\;sec^{-1}$에서는 매우 유의하게 감소하였고 (p<0.01), shear rate 90.0 , $225.0\;sec^{-1}$에서도 유의하게 감소되었다. (p<0.05). E-2(60mg/kg BW)군의 전혈점도는 대조군에 비하여 전 shear rate에서 매우 유의하게 감소되었다(p<0.01). E-3(120mg/kg BW)군의 전혈점도는 대조군에 비해 shear rate $11.25\;sec^{-1}$에서 매우 유의하게 감소되었고(p<0.01), shear rate 45.0, 225.0 sec-1에서도 유의하게 감소되었다. (p<0.05). 동일한 shear rate에서의 혈장점도는, E-1(30mg.kg BW)군은 대조군에 비해서 shear rate $90.0\;sec^{-1}$에서 유의하게 감소되었다. (p<0.05) E-2(60mg.kg BW)군의 혈장점도는 대조군에 비해 shear rate 90.0, $225.0\;sec^{-1}$에서 유의하게 감소되었다 (p<0.05). E-3(120mg.kg BW)군은 대조군에 비해 전 shear rate에서 모두 감소하였으나 유의한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 이러한 결과로부터Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)가 스트레스하에서 발생하는 위의 미세혈관 혈류 흐름장애를 개선시켜 위궤양 발생저하에 기여하는 것으로 보여진다. 6. 전 실험군의 위를 조사한 결과 출혈을 동반한 궤양이 형성되었음을 관찰할 수 있었다. Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장) 투여군에서는 대조군에 비해서 궤양의 면적과 깊이가 다소 적은 경향을 나타내었다. 7. 위조직에 대한 병리조직학적 검사를 시행한 결과 Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)를 투여한 실험군에 비하여 대조군의 궤양이 매우 심함을 관찰할 수 있었고 E-2 군의 경우 궤양이 경미한 정도였다. 8. 위궤양의 지표로 사용한 pH, 위점액량, 전혈점도, 조직병리학적 소견 등을 종합한 결과, Opuntia dillenii Haw.(선인장)를 투여한 실험군이 대조군에 비해서 항궤양효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 치료양의 2배를 투여한 E-2(60mg.kg BW)군에서 효과가 가장 뛰어났다.

  • I. Subject of the study A study on the nutritive value and utilization of powdered seaweeds. II. Purpose and Importance of the study A. In Korea the shortage of food will be inevitable by the rapidly growing population. It will be very important study to develop a new food from the seaweeds which were not used hitherto for human consumption. B. The several kinds of seaweeds have been used by man in Korea mainly as side-dishes. However, a properly powdered seaweed will enable itself to be a good supplement or mixture to certain cereal flours. C. By adding the powdered seaweed to any cereals which have long been staple foods in this country the two fold benefits; saving of cereals and change of dietary pattern, will be secured. III. Objects and scope of the study A. Objects of the study The objects will come under four items. 1. To develop a powdered seaweed as a new food from the seaweeds which have been not used for human consumption. 2. To evaluate the nutritional quality of the products the analysis for chemical composition and animal feeding experiment will be conducted. 3. Experimental cocking and accepability test will be conducted for the powdered products to evaluate the value as food stuff. 4. Sanitary test and also economical analysis will be conducted for the powdered products. B. Scope of the study 1. Production of seaweed powders Sargassum fulvellum growing in eastern coast and Sargassum patens C.A. in southern coast were used as the material for the powders. These algae, which have been not used for human consumption, were pulverized through the processes of washing, drying, pulverization, etc. 2. Nutritional experiments a. Chemical composition Proximate components (water, protein, fat, cellulose, sugar, ash, salt), minerals (calcium, phosphorus, iron, iodine), vitamins (A, $B_1,\;B_2$ niacin, C) and amino acids were analyzed for the seaweed powders. b. Animal feeding experiment Weaning 160 rats (80 male and 80 female rats) were used as experimental animals, dividing them into 16 groups, 10 rats each group. Each group was fed for 12 weeks on cereal diet (Wheat flour, rice powder, barley powder, potato powder, corn flour) with the supplementary levels of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 30% of the seaweed powder. After the feeding the growth, feed efficiency ratio, protain efficiency ratio and ,organs weights were checked and urine analysis, feces analysis and serum analysis were also conducted. 3. Experimental cooking and acceptability test a. Several basic studies were conducted to find the characteristics of the seaweed powder. b. 17 kinds of Korean dishes and 9 kinds of foreign dishes were prepared with cereal flours (wheat, rice, barley, potato, corn) with the supplementary levels of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 30% of the seaweed powder. c. Acceptability test for the dishes was conducted according to plank's Form. 4. Sanitary test The heavy metals (Cd, Pb, As, Hg) in the seaweed powders were determined. 5. Economical analysis The retail price of the seaweed powder was compared with those of other cereals in the market. And also economical analysis was made from the nutritional point of view, calculating the body weight gained in grams per unit price of each feeding diet. IV. Results of the study and the suggestion for application A. Chemical composition 1. There is no any big difference in proximate components between powders of Sargassum fulvellum in eastern coast and Sargassum patens C.A. in southern coast. Seasonal difference is also not significant. Higher levels of protein, cellulose, ash and salt were found in the powders compared with common cereal foods. 2. The levels of calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) in the powders were significantly higher than common cereal foods and also rich in iodine (I). Existence of vitamin A and vitamin C in the Powders is different point from cereal foods. Vitamin $B_1\;and\;B_2$ are also relatively rich in the powders.'Vitamin A in ·Sargassum fulvellum is high and the levels of some minerals and vitamins are seemed4 to be some influenced by seasons. 3. In the amino acid composition methionine, isoleucine, Iysine and valine are limiting amino acids. The protein qualities of Sargassum fulvellum and Sargassum patens C.A. are seemed to be .almost same and generally ·good. Seasonal difference in amino acid composition was found. B. Animal feeding experiment 1. The best growth was found at.10% supplemental level of the seaweed Powder and lower growth rate was shown at 30% level. 2. It was shown that 15% supplemental level of the Seaweed powder seems to fulfil, to some extent the mineral requirement of the animals. 3. No any changes were found in organs development except that, in kidney, there found decreasing in weight by increasing the supplemental level of the seaweed powder. 4. There is no any significant changes in nitrogen retention, serum cholesterol, serum calcium and urinary calcium in each supplemental level of the seaweed powder. 5. In animal feeding experiment it was concluded that $5%{\sim}15%$ levels supplementation of the seaweed powder are possible. C. Experimental cooking and acceptability test 1. The seaweed powder showed to be utilized more excellently in foreign cookings than in Korean cookings. Higher supplemental level of seaweed was passible in foreign cookings. 2. Hae-Jo-Kang and Jeon-Byung were more excellent than Song-Pyun, wheat cake, Soo-Je-Bee and wheat noodle. Hae-Je-Kang was excellent in its quality even as high as 5% supplemental level. 3. The higher levels of supplementation were used the more sticky cooking products were obtained. Song-Pyun and wheat cake were palatable and lustrous in 2% supplementation level. 4. In drop cookie the higher levels of supplementation, the more crisp product was obtained, compared with other cookies. 5. Corn cake, thin rice gruel, rice gruel and potato Jeon-Byung were more excellent in their quality than potato Man-Doo and potato noodle. Corn cake, thin rice gruel and rice gruel were excellent even as high as 5% supplementation level. 6. In several cooking Porducts some seaweed-oder was perceived in case of 3% or more levels of supplementation. This may be much diminished by the use of proper condiments. D. Sanitary test It seems that there is no any heavy metals (Cd, Pb, As, Hg) problem in these seaweed Powders in case these Powders are used as supplements to any cereal flours E. Economical analysis The price of the seaweed powder is lower than those of other cereals and that may be more lowered when mass production of the seaweed powder is made in future. The supplement of the seaweed powder to any cereals is also economical with the criterion of animal growth rate. F. It is recommended that these seaweed powders should be developed and used as supplement to any cereal flours or used as other food material. By doing so, both saving of cereals and improvement of individual's nutrition will greatly be achieved. It is also recommended that the feeding experiment for men would be conducted in future.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify hindlimb muscle atrophy in stroke induced rat and determine the effect of endurance exercise on body weight, weight of hindlimb muscle during 7 days after stroke induction. Thirty four male Sprague-Dawley rats with 200-270g body weight were divided into four groups : control, control+exercise(Con+Ex), stroke, and exercise after stroke(St+Ex) group. The control group and Con+Ex group received sham operation and the stroke group and St+Ex group received right MCA occlusion operation by using silicon-coated probe. The Con+Ex and St+Ex groups ran on a treadmill for 20min/day at 10m/min and $10^{\circ}grade$. Daily body weight and diet intake were measured every morning for 7 days. Cerebral infarction of stroke and St+Ex groups were identified by staining with TCC for 30minutes. The data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test using the SPSSWIN 9.0 program. Body weight of the control group at the 7th day increased by 18.3% significantly from the first day of experiment, that of the stroke group at the 7th day decreased by 6.7% significantly compared to the day of receiving right MCA occlusion operation. Body weight of the Con+Ex group at the 7th day increased by 10.3% significantly form the first day of experiment, that of St+Ex group at the 7th day also increased by 13.4% significantly compared to the day of receiving right MCA occlusion operation. The total amount of diet in stroke group decreased significantly compared to that of St+Ex and that of control group. In stroke group the wet weight of both sides of soleus, plantaris, and gastrocnemius muscles decreased significantly compared to that of control group. The relative weight of affected(left) plantaris and gastrocnemius muscles decreased significantly compared to that of the control group. The difference between the weight of affected and unaffected soleus, plantaris, and gastrocnemius muscles were not significant in stroke group. The wet weight of right gastrocnemius muscles in Con+Ex group increased compared to that of control group. The relative weight of right gastrocnemius muscle increased significantly compared to that of the control group. The wet weight of St+Ex group increased significantly compared to that of the stroke group in both sides of soleus, plantaris, and gastrocnemius muscles. The relative weight of affected plantaris muscle increased significantly compared to that of the stroke group. The difference between the weight of affected and unaffected soleus, plantaris, and gastrocnemius muscles were not significant in St+Ex group. Body weight and wet weight of soleus, plantaris, and gastrocnemius muscles in the St+Ex group did not recover to the values of control group. Based on these results, it can be suggested that endurance exercise during acute stage of stroke can reduce muscle atrophy related to denervation, inactivity and undernutrition.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphology and intercellular junctions of the odontoblast of dental pulp in the rat incisor by means of the freeze fracture electron microscopy. Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing $150{\sim}200g$ were used. After being anesthetized by an intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 ml sodium pentobarbital per kg in body weight(60 mg/ml) the animals were perfused with 2.5% glutaraldehyde-2% paraformaldehyde fixative in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer, pH 7.2 through the ascending aorta for one hour. The incisors were carefully extracted from the jaws and demineralized by suspending them in 0.1 M EDTA in 3% glutaraldehyde (pH 7.2) for two weeks. After demineralization, the specimens were obtained from the portion divided into five equal parts. For freeze-fracture replication, demineralized tissues were infiltrated for several hours with 10%, 25% glycerol in 0.1M cacodylate buffer as a cryoprotectant and then frozen in liquid Freon 22 and stored in liquid nitrogen. Fracturing and replication were done in Balzers BAF 400D high-vacuum freeze-fracture apparatus at $-120^{\circ}C$ under routine $5X10^{-7}$ Torr vacuum. The tissue was immediately replicated with platinum unidirectionally at $45^{\circ}$ angle and reinforced with carbon at $90^{\circ}$ angle unidirectionally or by using a rotary stage. The replication process was monitored by a quartz-crystal device. The replicas were immersed in 100% methanol overnight. The tissue was then digested from the replica by clorox (laundry bleach), placed into 5% EDTA, and washed repeatedly with distilled water. The replicas were picked up on 0.3% formvar-coated 75 mesh grids and examined in the JEOL 100B electron microscope. The results were as follows; 1. Both in thin sections and freeze-fracture replicas, three types of intercellular junctions were recognizable in the plasma membrane of odontoblast: gap junction, tight junction and desmosome-like junction. 2. The nuclear pores were evenly distributed over the nuclear envelope. The pore complex formed a ring about 70 nm in diameter. 3. Gap junctions were found between odontoblasts as well as odontoblasts and neighbouring pulp cells (fibroblast, subodontoblastic cell process, nerve-like fibre). Gap junctions, which were round, ellipsoid and pear-shaped and 600 nm in diameter, were observed in the odontoblast. 4. Numerous round and ellipsoid gap junctions could be frequently seen on the plasma membranes in cell body and apical part of the odontoblasts. On the P face, the junctions were recognized as a cluster of closely packed particles, measuring about 9 nm in diameter, and on the E face, the junctions were recognized as a shallow grooves.

  • The herbal extract (YMT_02) is a modified herbal extracts from Yukmijihwang-tang (YMJ) to promote memory-enhancing. The YMJ extracts has been widely used as an anti-aging herbal medicine for hundred years in Asian countries. The purpose of this study is to; 1) quantitatively evaluate the memory-enhancing effect of YMT_02 by behavior task, 2) identify candidate genes responsible for enhancing memory by cDNA microarray and 3) assess the anti-oxidant effect of YMT_02 on PC12 cell. Memory retention abilities are addressed by passive avoidance task with Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rat. Before the training session, the rats are subdivided into four groups and administrated with YMT_02, Ginkgo biloba, Soya lecithin and normal saline for 10 days. The retention test was performed. 24 hours after the training session. The retention time of the YMT_02 group was significantly (p<0.05) delayed (~100%), whereas Ginkgo biloba and Soya lecithin treatment delayed 20% and 10% respectively. The hippocampi of YMT_02 and control group were dissected and mANA was further purified. After synthesizing cDNA using oligo-dT primer, the cDNA were applied to Incyte rat GEMTM 2 cDNA microarray. The microarray results show that prealbumin(transthyretin), phosphotidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase, and PEP-19 are expressed abundantly in the YMT_02 treated group. Especially, PEP-19 is a neuron-specific protein, which inhibits apoptotic processes in neuronal cell. On the other hand, transcripts of RAB15, glutamate receptor subunit 2 and CDK108 are abundant in control group. Besides, neuronal genes involved in neuronal death or neurodegeneration such as neuronal-pentraxin and spectrin are abundantly expressed in control group. Additionally, the YMT_02 shows an anti oxidative effect in the PC12 cell. The list of differentially expressed genes may implicate further insight on the action and mechanism behind the memory-enhancing effect of herbal extracts YMT_02, for example, anti-apoptotic, anti-oxidative, and neuroprotective effects.
