Paradigm shift in management of infected immature permanent teeth has occurred. The new concept of the treatment includes minimal or no intracanal instrumentation, disinfection with triple antibiotic paste and sealing with mineral trioxide aggregate. This regenerative endodontic treatment promotes differentiation of periradicular stem cells that induce regeneration of vital tissue and continuation of root formation. Thorough disinfection and three-dimensional scaffold are important in this new concept of the treatment. Platelet-rich fibrin has been reported as 'new scaffold' instead of blood clot, which had been used in the past. Triple antibiotics can be used to disinfect the tooth but may lead to complications including discoloration. Three cases of infected immature permanent tooth caused by dens evaginatus fracture are presented. After removal of necrotic pulp and thorough intracanal irrigation, only platelet-rich fibrin was applied to the root canal in the first case. In the other cases, topical antibiotics was used for disinfection and platelet-rich fibrin for scaffold. In all the cases, the opening was sealed with mineral trioxide aggregate. All the cases showed proper healing of inrabony lesion and some lengthening of root. According to these cases, regenerating vital tissue of the infected immature permanent tooth can be achieved with disinfection and application of platelet-rich fibrin.

Culture condition for callus formation and plant regeneration were optimized by the selection of explants and the manipulation of hormonal combination in the culture medium. The calli induced from seed, cotyledon, hypocotyl and mesophyll segments were more vigorously proliferated under dark condition than those under continuous light condition. Hypocotyl-and cotyledon-derived calli were more regenerative as compared with those of seed and mesophyll. Callus formation from hypocotyl and cotyledonary explants was enhanced on MS medium with 1.0 mg/${\ell}$ 2, 4-D and 0.1 to 0.5 mg/${\ell}$ kinetin or BAP. The combination of 0.1 mg/${\ell}$ NAA and 2.0 to 4.0 mg/${\ell}$ kinetin was the most effective for shoot regeneration from the callus. The maximum frequency (24.0%) of shoot regeneration was obtained from the hypocotyl-derived callus transferred to MS medium supplemented with 0.1mg/${\ell}$ NAA and 4.0 mg/${\ell}$ kinetin. The capacities for callus, root and shoot formation from cotyledon and hypocotyl explants were remarkably different among cultivars of B. napus tested. The calli induced from hypocotyl produced more shoots than those from cotyledon.

Conditions for efficient organogenesis and plant regeneration from Dianthus gratianopol suspension cultured cells were established. Shoot-forming calli of glossy surface, pale green and knobby type were selected from leaf explant-derived calli and were suspension-subcultured every week in CP liquid medium with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP. Combinations of 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP, and 1.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP were effective for the induction of regenerative callus from the suspension cultured cell clusters. Multiple shoot primordia were initiated from the green spots of these regenerative callus and formed shoots on MS medium with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L PAA. Shoot regeneration frequency (calli regenerating at least one shoot) was about 87%. For plant regeneration, proliferated shoots were excised and transferred to MS medium with 0.1 mg/L NAA for root initiation after 9 weeks of culture. The regenerants were potted in soil and formed the flowering buds and petals. Also, adventitious shoots were formed from the excised green shoot primordia of regenerative callus and these shoots proliferated successfully and regenerated to whole plants.

This study was conducted to establish mass propagation system from the tissue culture using immature embryos in Eleutherococcus senticosus. Immature embryos from seeds were removed under the microscope and placed on MS, $MSB_5\;and\;B_5$ medium containing several plant growth regulators. While the calli were well formed on media containing 2 mg/l of 2, 4-D, 2 mg/l of 2, 4-D and 0.7 mg/l of TDZ, shoot regeneration was better on MS medium with combinations of high concentrations of TDZ and low concentrations of 2, 4-D. Treatment of 2, 4-D alone was better than treatment of TDZ alone in callus induction, but plant regeneration was reversed. The results of callus formation and shoot regeneration on $MSB_5\;and\;B_5$ media were similar to those of MS media. The rate of callus formation was nearly 100% when 2, 4-D was added to $B_5$, medium on concentration of 2 mg/l or 0.7 mg/l. TDZ showed very significant effect on the formation of multiple shoots.

In this study, the induction regeneration of callus from immature embryo in trifoliata orange (Poncirus trifoliata RAFIN.) were accomplished. The embryogenic calli were induced from the immature embryo derived from seed when the calli were irradiated for 16hr at about 2,000 Lux in $\frac{1}{2}$ MS medium supplemented with 3% sucrose, and 44.4$\mu$M BA. Regeneration to whole plants was the most successful in MS medium containing 5.0$\mu$M BA. The yellowish callus was developed at 2 to 3 weeks of culture and the callus was changed from yellow to green at 5 to 6 weeks culture. In vitro regeneration was directly induced from embryogenic callus in MS medium containing 3% sucrose and 5.0$\mu$M BA. Multishoot was formed at 16 weeks culture. Moreover, when the root-formed plantlet was transplanted to soil, they grew to a whole plant. The compact cultured-cells were observed by light microscope after 4 weeks of cultivation and the embryogenic clumps were formed about the 5 weeks. At the same time, the neighboring cells were liquefied. In addition, differentiation of leaf and stem from the callus was observed after 12 weeks. The developed oil sacs and the profacicular cambium of the immature leaf were observed after 18 weeks. Therefore, we can see the considerable changes of cell arrangements according to the developmental stages of calli from trifoliata orange.

The earliest reports of the use of electrical energy to directly stimulate bone healing seem to be in 1853 from England, the techniques involved the introduction of direct current into the non-united fracture site percutaneously via metallic needles, with subsequent healing of the defect. One endpoint of the periodontal therapy is to generate structure lost by periodontal diseases. Several procedural advances may support regeneration of attachment, however, regeneration of alveolar bone does not occur consistently. Therefore, factors which stimulate bone repair are areas for research in periodontal reconstructive therapy. Effects of cytokines or growth factors on bone repair are examples of such areas. Another one is electrical current which occurs in bone naturally, so that such bone may be particularly susceptible to electrical therapy. The purposes of this study were to observe the effects of electrical stimulation on the normal periodontium, to determine whether the electricity is the useful means for periodontal regeneration or not. Forty rats weighted about 100 gram were used and divided into 4 groups, the first group, there was no electrical stimulation with the connection of electrodes only. In the second group, there was stimulated by the 10 mA during 10 minutes per a day, in the third group was stimulated by the 25 mA , and the fourth by the 50 mA. At 3, 5, 10 and 15 days post-appliance , two rats in each group were serially sacrificed. and the maxillae and the mandible processed to paraffin, and the specimens were prepared with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain for the light microscopic evaluation. The results of this study were as follows : 1. There was the distinct reversal line on the lingual alveolar crest, whereas a little changes in the labial alveolarcrest to the duration and amount of currents. 2. In 50 mA group, the cells were highly concentrated at the apex of anterior teeth, and was observed the necrotic tissue. In posterior root apex, the hypercementosis was appeared, and newly formed cementum layer has been increased continuously with the time. 3. The periodontal ligament fiber and Sharpey's fiber were arranged in order, and the bone trabeculae were increased as the experiment proceeded by, relatively the bone marrows were decreased. 4. In the pulp tissue, the blood vessels were increased with blood congestion in the experimetal specimens remarkably, and the dentinal tubules were obstructed . 5. The osteoblasts in alveolar bone proper had been showed highly activity, and also observed the formation of bone trabeculea. In the conclusion, it was suggested that the electrical stimulation has influence on the periodontium and the pulp tissue. However, there might be the injurious effects.

Callus induction from leaf and stem explants of Arabidopsis thaliana was successfully obtained when leaf explants were cultured on MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D in the dark and also, when stem explants were cultured on CP medium containing 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1 mg/L BAP. Explant-derived sliced calli were suspension-subcultured every week in CP liquid medium with 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1 mg/L BAP in the dark, and shoot-forming cell clusters of nodular, pale yellow and knobby type were selected after 7-8 weeks of culture. Shoots were initiated from the green spots of the selected shoot forming calli cultured on MS regeneration medium containing 0.05 mg/L IAA, 7.0 mg/L 2-iP and 30 g/L sucrose under continous illumination for four weeks. Shoot regeneration frequency (calli regenerating at least one shoot) was more than 50%. For plant regeneration, excised shoots were trnasferred to hormone free medium for root initiation after 4 weeks of culture. The regenerants were bolting after 2 weeks of culture and formed in vitro flowering buds within bracts after 4 weeks of culture.

This study was conducted to examine the effect of plant growth regulators on the formation of adventitious bud callus(ABC) and plant regeneration in shoot tip culture of Zantedeschia spp. 'Florex Gold'. Treatment of $0.1mgL^{-1}\;N$-phenyl-N'-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-ylurea(thidiazuron, TDZ) was more promotive for formation of ABC in shoot tip culture than 6-benzylaminopurine(BA) treatment, and short shoots were developed. Comparing to treatment of BA, mixing treatment of BA and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid(NAA) inhibited the formation of ABC and multiple shoot. The proliferation of ABC derived from sections(0.3 cm) of ABC produced by shoot tip culture in medium supplemented with $0.1mgL^{-1}\;TDZ$ was more effective in medium with $0.1mgL^{-1}\;TDZ$ or $2.0mgL^{-1}\;BA$ than the other treatments. The shoot regeneration and growth from sections of ABC was more promotive in treatment of $0.001mgL^{-1}\;TDZ$. Also, the root growth from sections of ABC was better in medium with $0.001mgL^{-1}\;TDZ$ or $0.2mgL^{-1}\;BA$. Consequently, in vitro mass production of Zantedeschia spp. 'Florex Gold' can be obtained via indirect organogenesis through plant regeneration and proliferation of ABC which was derived from shoot tip culture at $0.1mgL^{-1}\;TDZ$.

We analyzed the growth characteristics of naturally regenerated seedings of Larix kaempferi in order to propose a field-applicable regeneration method. Experimental sites were established at Gapyeong in Gyeonggi-do and at Bonghwa in Gyeongsangbuk-do. We analyzed seed inflow features, occurrence, and growth characteristics of natural seedlings for three years. The reserved seed-tree site producedthe greatest number of inflow seeds and followed by seed-tree site and clear-cut site. In addition, the reserved seed-tree method was found to be more efficient than other methods in evenly scattering seeds. The rate of seedling occurrence at treatment sites (e.g., harvesting and scratching) was 2.4%, which is 8.0 times higher than the seedling occurrence (0.3%) at the non-treatment sites. There were approximately 470,000 seedlings per hectare at the treatment sites in June of the first year after regeneration and approximately 78,000 seedlings per hectare in October of the third year. The average diameter of the root collar of the seedlings in the third year was 6.5 mm, and the average height of the seedlings was 50.4 cm. These results indicate that it is possible to create a secondary forest of L. kaempferi by natural regeneration if harvesting and scraping are implemented during seed fructification. Considering the rapid growth of L. kaempferi shown in this study, the proposed method would be an efficient reforestation technique.
