스트레스 반응에 관여하는 Saccharomyces cerevisiae 전사인자인 Msn2/4의 $C_2H_2$ zinc finger 부위와 아미노산 서열 유사성을 보이는 Aspergillus nidulans MsnA의 하위 유전자 획득을 위하여 msnA 결손 돌연변이체 또는 과발현 균주에서 야생주와 비교하여 차별적으로 발현되는 유전자(Differentially Expressed Gene, DEG)들을 분리하였다. 선별된 DEG들은 염기서열 결정을 통해 해당 유전자들을 동정하였고 이들 중 DEG6는 단당류 수송자(monosaccharide transporter)로 예측된 mstB 유전자로 밝혀졌다. mstB의 발현은 MsnA 과발현에 의하여 증가되었으며 MsnA는 in vitro에서 mstB 프로모터 부위에 직접적으로 결합하였다. MstB는 12개의 막결합 부위를 가지며 A. niger의 고친화성 단당류 수송자(high-affinity monosaccharide transporter)인 MstA와 80%의 높은 아미노산 서열 동일성을 보였다. mstB 결손 돌연변이체의 표현형은 야생주와 유사하였으나 MstB가 과발현된 균주는 낮은 당 농도인 0.1% glucose 배지에서 유성생식 기관인 cleistothecia의 형성이 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 단당류 수송자인 MstB가 유성분화 과정에서 요구되는 당의 수송에 관여하고 있음을 시사한다.

Objectives : This research was to evaluate the MST effectiveness on iliopsoas muscle of herniated inter-vertebral disc in lumbar spine. Methods : This research was carried out with the 58 inpatients who received treatment for their HIVD in lumbar spine from January 1 to April 12, 2014 in Daejeon Jaseng hospital of oriental medicine. We randomly divided into two groups: Group A=common treatment on HIVD of L-spine without MST(acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, herb medication, chuna treating and physiotherapy) and Group B=common treatment on HIVD of L-spine with MST. To verify the MST effect, tenderness(checked by algometer pressure), NRS(numeric rating scale), and ODI(Oswestry disability index) were measured before and after treatment. The statistically significance was evaluated by SPSS 18.0 for Windows. Results : In the Group B, the tenderness was significantly decreased compared with Group A. However, on the NRS and ODI, it did not produce the meaningful results as these two values decreased in all groups. Conclusions : From this research, when patients who were diagnosed HIVD of L-spine with iliopsoas muscles tenderness receive MST additionally, the satisfaction of patients as well as physician confidence will increase.

Misaengtang (MST), a formula of Korean herbal medicines, has been used as a weight-controlling recipe. We have investigated two experiment of body weight regulation by MST In rats. i) The anti-obesity effect of MTS on a high fat diet-induced obesity, male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with a high-fat diet containing 30% in the absence or presence of MST (0.3, 1 or 3%) or a reference orlistat (0.05%) for 6 weeks. ii) weight-decrease effect of MST on normal diet, same animal were fed with a normal diet in the absence or presence of MST (3%) for 6 weeks. And the body weights, daily feed and water consumptions, organ weights, fat weights serum biochemistry were measured. In both experiments, MST and orlistat did not affect the body weight gain. But orlistat significantly increased the feed and water consumptions, leading to low-feed efficiency, and orlistat markedly reduced abdominal, paratesticular and perirenal fat weights, although increased the kidney weights. In MST, low dose (0.3%) of MST decreased the perirenal fat and increased the kidney weights in rats fed HFD, and MST 3% decreased the abdominal fat weights in rats fed normal diet. In addition, Orlistat caused changes in parameters of hepatotoxicity (AST and glucose), nephrotoxicity (BUN and B/C ratio) and lipid metabolism (HDL and triglycerides). In comparison, MST decreased AST, ALP and ALT, the hepatotoxicity markers, and somewhat improved the hepatic fatty degeneration. Taken together, it is suggested that MST does not exert anti-obesity activity as well as remarkably direct effects, but MST may be potentially benefit for dietary cure and exercise-cure of obesity.

This paper describes an approach for constucting a Rectilinear Steiner Tree (RST) derivable from a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST), using Associative Processor (AP). We propose a fast parallel algorithm using AP's basic algorithms which can be realized by the processing capability of rudimentary logic and the selective matching capability of Content- Addressable Memory (CAM). The main idea behind the proposed algorithm is to maximize the overlaps between the consecutive edges in MST, thus minimizing the cost of a RST. An efficient parallel linear algorithm with O(n) complexity to construct a RST is proposed using an algorithm to find a MST, where n is the number of nodes. A node insertion method is introduced to allow the Z-type layout. The routing process which only depends on the neighbor edges and the no-rerouting strategy both help to speed up finding a RST.

MMA-Styrene-Tetramethyltin(MST) thin films were fabricated by plasma polymerization method, and their electrical properties were confirmed by IR and GPC. The electrical conductivity increased with increasing temperature, and the adsorption current hardly appeared. The high-field electrical conduction mechanism is the electronic one such as schottky, and the activation energy is about 1.1 eV.

The influence of the slip flow on the MEMS/MST based gas-lubricated proceeding bearing is investigated. Based on the modified Reynolds equation, the numerical analysis of the finite difference method was developed by applying the first order slip flow approximation. The numerical prediction of bearing performance provides the significant results concerning the slip flow effect in micro scale gas-lubricated proceeding bearing. The result indicates that the load-carrying capacity as well as the rotordynamic coefficients were significantly reduced due to the slip flow. Through this work, it is concluded that the slip flow effect could not be ignored in the micro gas-lubricated proceeding bearing.

Objectives and methods : To study on the anti-cancer, anti-metastasis and immune response improvement effects of Herbal-acupuncture with Sinomenii acuti Lignum infusion solution(SAL-HAS), we injected Sinomenii acuti Lignum infusion solution into Joksamni$(ST_{36})$ of C57BL/6 mouse which is corresponding to human Joksamni(ST36). We observed its effect on the number of $CD25^+/CD4^+,\;CD8^+/CD3e^+,\;CD69^+/B220^+,\;NK1.1^+/CD3e^+$ cells in mouse PBMCs(peripheral blood mononuclear cells), the number of the pulmonary colony, and the effect on MST(mean survival time) and ILS(increase in MST over control) of C57BL/6 mice implanted intravenously with B16-F10 melanoma. Results and Conclusions : 1. The spleen cells proliferation of the sample groups treated with SAL-HAS extract has increased significantly compared with that of the control group. 2. The percentage of the $CD25^+/CD4^+,\;CD8^+/CD3e^+,\;CD69^+/B220^+,\;NK1.1^+/CD3e^+$ cells in C57BL/6 mouse PBMCs of the sample groups treated with SAL-HAS has increased compared with that of the control group. 3.
