  • [$^{18}F$]FDG (2-[$^{18}F$] Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-Glucose), which is required Automated Synthetic Module for production, is most often used Radiopharmaceuticals in nuclear medicine. In this study, an Automated Synthesis Module was developed to produce FDG in two consecutive time when F-18 feds continuously by modifying a domestic FDG Automated Synthetic Module on structural geometry and control system. The results were showed that the Average Synthesis Yields on the developed Automated Synthetic Module were $45{\pm}3%$ (n=20), $50{\pm}3%$ (n=20) respectively. The Quality Control results, such as Radio TLC, Radiochemical purity, Gamma-counter, pH, LAL Test, Micro bacteria test, showed in same level with domestic [$^{18}F$]FDG Auto-Synthetic modules. Therefore, if some features were improved by considering the components life time and appearance, commercial sales can be expected because of low price and easy maintenance compared with foreign products.

  • 목적 : 마우스 간암에서 방사선과 각종 항암제와의 복합요법을 시행하여, 방사선 감수성을 증가시킬 수 있는 약물을 탐색하고자 하였다. 방법 : C3H/HeJ마우스에 마우스 간암인 HCa-1을 이식하고, 평균 직경 8 mm에 이르렀을 때, 방사선 조사(25 Gy), 항암 약물(5-Fu, 150 mg/kg; adriamycln, 8 mg/kg; paclltaxel, 40 mg/kg; gemcltablne, 50 mg/kg), 또는 방사선과 항암 약물의 복합 치료를 시행하였다 치료에 대한 종양 반응은 종양 성장 지연과 항진 요인으로 분석하였다. 항진 효과를 보인 약물에 대하여 그 기전 연구는 조직 절편에서 apoptotic 수준을 평가하고, 또한 조절물질의 발현을 분석하였다. p53, Bcl-2, Bax, Bcl-XL, Bcl-XS, p21$^{WAF1/CIP1}$의 발현 분석은 westeblotting으로 하였다. 결과 : Gemcltabine 만이 방사선 감수성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다(항진요인:1.6). Gemcltabine과 방사선의 복합 치료는 apoptosis 유도에서는 부가적 수준만을 보였다. 조절울질의 발현 양상은 방사선 단독에 비하여 방사선과 gemcitabine의 병용시 p21$^{WAF1/CIP1}$의 증가가 유의하게 관찰되었다. 결론 : Gemcitabiue은 마우스 간암에서 방사선 감수성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 조절하는 요소로서 p21$^{WAF1/CIP1}$ 이 관여할 것으로 생각 된다.

  • Background: The current study investigated the effects of Piper longumine on radio-sensitization of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and underlying mechanisms. Materials and Methods: Human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in vitro and those in logarithmic growth phase were selected for experiments divided into four groups: control, X-ray exposed, Piper longumine, and Piper longumine combined with X-rays. Conogenic assays were performed to determine the radio-sensitizing effects. Cell survival curves were fitted by single-hit multi-target model and then the survival fraction (SF), average lethal dose ($D_0$), quasi-threshold dose ($D_q$) and sensitive enhancement ratio (SER) were calculated. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Western blot assays were employed for expression of apoptosis-related proteins (Bc1-2 and Bax) after treatment with Piper longumine and/or X-ray radiation. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was detected by FCM with a DCFH-DA probe. Results: The cloning formation capacity was decreased in the group of piperlongumine plus radiation, which displayed the values of SF2, D0, Dq significantly lower than those of radiation alone group and the sensitive enhancement ratio (SER) of D0 was1.22 and 1.29, respectively. The cell apoptosis rate was increased by the combination treatment of Piper longumine and radiation. Piper longumine increased the radiation-induced intracellular levels of ROS. Compared with the control group and individual group, the combination group demonstrated significantly decreased expression of Bcl-2 with increased Bax. Conclusions: Piper longumine at a non-cytotoxic concentration can enhance the radio-sensitivity of MDA-MB-231cells, which may be related to its regulation of apoptosis-related protein expression and the increase of intracellular ROS level, thus increasing radiation-induced apoptosis.

  • Influence of gamma rays on the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 cells was investigated in terms of a bidirectional hydrogenase, which is encoded by hoxEFUYH genes and responsible for biohydrogen production. Irradiated cells revealed a substantial change in stoichiometry of photosystems at one day after gamma irradiation at different doses. However, as evaluated by the maximal rate of photosynthetic oxygen evolution, maximal photochemical efficiency of photosystem II, and chlorophyll content, net photosynthesis or photosynthetic capacity was not significantly different between the control and irradiated cells. Instead, transcription of hoxE, hoxH, or lexA, which encodes a subunit of bidirectional hydrogenase or the only transcriptional activator, LexA, for hox genes, was commonly enhanced in the irradiated cells. This transcriptional enhancement was more conspicuously observed immediately after gamma irradiation. In contrast, hydrogenase activities were found to somewhat lower in the irradiated cells. Therefore, we propose that transcription of hox genes should be enhanced by gamma irradiation in a LexA-mediated and possibly photosynthesis-independent manner and that this enhancement might not induce a subsequent increase in hydrogenase activities, probably due to the presence of post-transcriptional and/or post-translational regulatory mechanisms.
