Development of a solid-phase chemiluminescence immunoassay for the detection of progesterone in serum extract was described. The chemiluminescence immunoassay was establised utilizing anti-progesterone monoclonal antibody that coated on polystyrene tubes and progesterone-ABEI conjugate as tracer. The light yield generated from antibody bound conjugate was counted on clinilumat luminometer by oxidation with microperoxidase and peroxide. The chemiluminescence immunoassay was high specific and accurate and detects as little as 3.9ng/ml of progesterone. The intra-assay CV ranged from 6% to 11.5% and inter-assay CV ranged from 13.6% to 18.7%. This assay system was good correlated with conventional kit radioimmunoassay system (r=0.98).

In order to investigate the mechanism of regulation of progesterone production, quail were hypophysectomized at various times during the ovulation cycle, and granulose cells were isolated from follicles 4 hr after the operation. They were incubated in vitro at $40^{\circ}C$ with or without LH or dibutyryl cyclic AMP, and the amounts of progesterone produced during 3 hr of incubation were measured by radioimmunoassay. Hypophysectomy at 8 hr or 20 hr before the predicted time of ovulation caused a reduced responsiveness of F1 granulosa cells to exogenous LH or dibutyrul cyclic AMP. Although hypophysectomy at 24 hr before ovulation caused a slight reduction of responsiveness of F1 granulosa cells, the reduction of the progesterone production during the incubation without any stimuli was prominent by the sham operation. These results suggest that the presence of pituitary gland influences the ability of the granulose cells to produce progesterone in response to LH or dibutyryl cyclic AMP.

Human thyrotropin(h-TSH)의 $^{125}I$-표지를 실온서 소량의 Chloramine T를 산화제로 사용하여 수행하였다. 이 방법은 다량의 Chloramine T를 사용하는 종래의 방법과 비교하여 균일한 방사능 표지를 용이하게 하고 강력한 산화제인 Chloramine T에 의한 h-TSH의 파손을 줄여 주었다. 새로운 방법에 의해 합성된 $h-TSH^*$는 항체에 대한 친화도와 유효기간에 있어서 Daiichi 회사의 상품에 비교하여 손색이 없었다.

The estrogen and progesterone receptors which are bound to the cytoplasmic protein of cancer cells were measured in 20 patients with the early breast cancer by means of radioimmunoassay using charcoal. 1. The Patients with estrogen receptor positive were 13 (65%) of 20 cases and with progestrone receptor positive were 7 cases (35%) in the early breast cancer. 2. Coexistence of estrogen and progesterone receptor positive was noted in 7 cases (35%). The cases of estrogen receptor positive and progesterone receptor negative were 6 cases (33.3%), while there were no cases of estrogen receptor negative with progestrone receptor positive. 3. Coincidence of estrogen and progesterone negative was notied in 7 cases(35%). Conclusively, it is considered that the measurement of estrogen and progesterone receptors has relevance as predictive value, in the response to hormonal manipulations and chemotherapy for breast cancer patients.

난포자극호르몬(HFSH)을 클로라민 티를 사용하여 방사성요오드로 표지하였으며 평균 표지수율은 대략 65%이었다. 표지호르몬을 방사면역측정용으로 사용하기 위하여 전분젤 전기영동과 젤여과법으로 분리정제하고 그 분리정제효과를 분석한 결과 젤 여과법이 분리시간, 간편성, 항체와의 결합력 등으로 보아 우수함을 알 수 있었다. 한편 유리표지호르몬과 항체와 결합한 표지호르몬의 비율를 결정하기 위하여 이중항체법을 크로마토전기영동법과 비교하여 본 결과 이중항체법에 의해서만 효과적 비율결정이 가능하였다.

In spite of the development of highly sophisticated instrument, the precise quantitation of plant hormones still has many difficulties. Due to their high specificity, sensitivity and minimal sample purification steps, immunological assays have been widely applied for plant hormone assay. Enzme-linked immunosorbent assay technique for the determination of plant hormones was developed by Voller in 1978. Immunological assays are accomplished by competition of labeled tracer antigen and unlabeled antigen for a limited number of specific antibodies. The use of enzyme as replacement labels for radioisotopes enabled much of the sensitivity and specificity of radioimmunoassay (RIA) to be retained but without the inherent disadvantage of high capital cost, potential health hazard, and short shelf life of the labeled reactants.

The effect of supplementary feeding on postpartum ovarian activity, reproductive performance and plasma progesterone concentrations in Cheju native cows was studies. The group with adequate nutrition had greater mean body weight than did the underfed group before and after calving. First ovulation occurred 19.5 days and first oestrus at 37.8 days postpartum in the standard group, however, there was delay in first ovulation and oestrus in the restricted group (73.4 days and 111.8 days). Progesterone concentraitons of full fed animals gradually increased from 6 weeks(0.5ng/ml) to 12 weeks(3.3ng/ml) after calving. However, progesterone concentrations of underfed animals had a slight increase in 10 weeks after dalving(0.80ng/ml).

The Purpose of this study was to determine the serum content of LH, FSH and prolactin. Blood samples collected from day 20 prepartum to 20 postrtum in 8 sows. LH, FSH and prolactin were assayed by radioimmunoassay methods. LH levels increased from 2.3 mIU/$m\ell$ day 6 prepartum to 5.8 mIU/$m\ell$ by day +2 and remained quite constant thereafter. The mean serum FSH increased from 7.5mIU/$m\ell$ day 6 prepartum to 10.0 mIU/$m\ell$ at the time of parturition, but the difference in LH and FSH patterns reported here provide further evidence that the controlling mechanisms for the two gonadotropins are independent. Prolactin reached a peak mean level of 68.5ng/$m\ell$ at day 0.

The purpose of this study was to measure the serum content of progesterone, estradiol 17${\beta}$ and cortisol. Blood samples collected from day 20 prepartum to day 20 postpartum in 8 sows. Progesterone and estradiol-17${\beta}$ were assayed by radioimmunoassay methods and cortisol was determined by competitive protein-binding methods. Progesterone levels began to decline on day -4, reached 1.9ng/ml by day +2 and remained quite constant thereafter. Progesterone levels remained fairly constant(18.4 to 20.0 ng/ml) from 20 to 6 days before parturition. Estrdiol-17${\beta}$ increased from 205 pg/ml at day 6 prepartum to 425 pg/ml at the time of parturition. Cortisol reached a peak level of 86.5 ng/ml at day 0.

Blood glucose and immunoreactive insulin (IRI) were measured during oral glucose tolerance test in 15 thyrotoxic patients and 8 normal controls, to study the glucose metabolism in thyrotoxicosis. Following were the results; 1. In thyrotoxicosis, there is noticed late rise and late fall of plasma IRI durnig oral glucose tolerance test, like as phenomenon of mild diabetes mellitus. 2. When the thyrotoxic patients were divided into normal and abnormal responsive groups after the level of blood glucose by Wilkerson Criteria, no significant differences in plasma IRI levels were noticed between two groups. 3. This result may be interpreted as relative deficiency of insulin secretion from panceas and suggest genetically related defects.
