The inhibitory effect of Chung-Jang-Hwan (C-mix) consisted of Geranium nepalense subsp. thunbergii, Saururus chinensis, and Rubus coreanus were investigated in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitic mice by microarray analysis. Treatment with Cmix improved colitic symptoms, including colon shortening and myeloperoxidase activity. Treatment with DSS alone upregulated the expression levels of inflammation-related genes, including IL-$1\beta$, IL-6, CCL2, CCL4, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL24, CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL5, CXCL9 and CXCL10, and other colitis-related genes such as COX-2, PAP, MMP family, S100a8, S100a9 and DEFA1 in mice. However, treatment with C-mix inhibited the expression levels of inflammation-associated genes induced by DSS. The increased expression levels of COX-2 and IL-$1\beta$, representative inflammatory genes, were confirmed by a quantitative realtime polymerase chain reaction analysis. These results indicate that C-mix may ameliorate colitis by the inhibitory regulation of inflammation-associated genes.

Objectives: The object of this study was to observe the in vitro anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects of six single aqueous herbal extracts-Quisqualis Fructus (QuF), Meliae Cortex (MeC), Arecae Semen (ArS), Crassirhizomae Rhizoma (CrR), Ulmi Pasta Semen(UlS), Torreyae Semen(ToS)- against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-activated Raw 264.7 cells. Methods: Anti-bacterial activities against S. aureus of aqueous extracts of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS were detected using standard agar microdilution methods. In addition, the effects on the cell viability, prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), interleukin (IL)-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 productions of LPS activated Raw 264.7 cells were detected. The anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects were respectively compared with lincomycin and piroxicam. Results: Minimal Inhibition Concentration (MIC) of aqueous extracts of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS against S. aureus was respectively detected $5.625{\pm}4.075$ (3.125~12.500), $0.332{\pm}0.273$ (0.098~0.782), $1.094{\pm}0.428$ (0.782~1.563), $2.969{\pm}2.096$ (0.782~6.250), $9.375{\pm}4.419$ (3.125~12.500)>25 mg/ml. MIC of lincomycin was detected as $0.469{\pm}0.297$ (0.195~0.782) ${\mu}g/ml$ at same conditions. In addition, $ED_{50}$ against LPS-induced cell viabilities and cytokine releases of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS was as follows - Cell viability: 66.370, 2.908, 1.747, 259.553, 18.150 and 34.160 mg/ml; NO production: 389.486, 0.294, 0.138, 523.060, 45.363 and 49.327 mg/ml; $PGE_2$ production: 114.271, 0.223, 0.046, 243.078, 8.829 and 28.947 mg/ml; TNF-${\alpha}$ production: 406.288, 0.343, 0.123, 9404.227, 125.406 and 140.775 mg/ml; IL-$1{\beta}$ production: 117.178, 0.135, 0.019, 237.451, 7.923 and 19.418 mg/ml; IL-6 production: 31.261, 0.105, 0.055, 128.434, 2.290 and 3.745 mg/ml. ED50 of piroxicam against LPS-induced cell viabilities, NO, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 were detected as 35.179, 6.552, 1.162, 7.273, 7.101 and $5.044{\mu}g/ml$, respectively at same conditions. Conclusions: All six single aqueous herbal extracts showed anti-bacterial effects against S. aureus, in the order of MeC, ArS, CrR, QuF and UlS aqueous extracts except for ToS; they did not showed any anti-bacterial effects (MIC>25 mg/ml). They also showed anti-inflammatory effects against LPS-activated Raw 264.7 cells in the order of ArS, MeC, UlS, ToS, QuF and CrR aqueous extracts. It means that the ArS and MeC will be showed favorable potent anti-bacterial and related anti-inflammatory effects.

Dans l'histoire du $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ $cor{\acute{e}}en$, la position de Chae yoon-il est $tr{\grave{e}}s$ $particuli{\grave{e}}re$. Il a $consacr{\acute{e}}$, dans ses $carri{\grave{e}}res$ de la mise en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$, toute son ${\acute{e}}nergie$ au $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ sans jamais $fl{\acute{e}}chir$ contre le pouvoir dictatorial. Un critique a dit que son $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ est semblable au $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de la $cruaut{\acute{e}}$. Pourtant, dans la mesure $o{\grave{u}}$ il respecte le texte dramatique, et que son $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ a des tendances de la politique et qu'il oriente l'engagement du spectateur, il est certain que son $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ est loin du $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de la $cruaut{\acute{e}}$. Ses $proc{\acute{e}}d{\acute{e}}s$ de la mise en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ sont $tr{\grave{e}}s$ divers et il n'y a pas de $coh{\acute{e}}rences$ au niveau des styles dramatiques. $Malgr{\acute{e}}$ cela, nous pouvons trouver son $originalit{\acute{e}}$ de la mise en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ dans la rencontre avec Lee hyun-wha. Le metteur en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ ${\acute{e}}tablit$ son $esth{\acute{e}}tique$ $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}trale$ en montant sur $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ de cinq $pi{\grave{e}}ces$ de Lee hyun-wha. Alors, en effet qu'est-ce que $l^{\prime}esth{\acute{e}}tique$ de la mise en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ de Chae yoon-il produite par les ${\oe}uvres$ $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}trales$ de Lee hyun-wha? Dans les $pi{\grave{e}}ces$ de Lee hyun-wha, il y a beaucoup de codes symboliques de la violence sexuelle comme le sadisme et le masochisme. L'implusion sexuelle $cach{\acute{e}}e$ dans le subconscient des personnages s'entrecroise avec le $m{\acute{e}}canisme$ du pouvoir politique. Alors, les abus sexuels et les mauvais traitements sur le corps deviennent une sorte de torture. L'expression cruelle des langages $sc{\acute{e}}niques$ n'est autre que la $r{\acute{e}}volte$ contre la $r{\acute{e}}alit{\acute{e}}$ actuelle de la politique. Son $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de torture est donc une sorte de $m{\acute{e}}canisme$ de la catharsis pour dissiper le cauchemar et l'inconscient noir. La fantasie sexuelle construite par le monde inconscient de l'auteur dramatique $s^{\prime}{\acute{e}}panouit$ dans le $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de Chae yoon-il qui $r{\hat{e}}ve$ toujours l'esprit de la $libert{\acute{e}}$. Une des convictions dramatiques du metteur en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$, c'est que le $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ tout d'abord doit ${\hat{e}}tre$ choquant. Il dit : "l'art doit ${\hat{e}}tre$ ${\grave{a}}$ la fois ${\acute{e}}mouvant$ et bouleversant. Cependant, dans la mesure $o{\grave{u}}$ le film ou la $t{\acute{e}}l{\acute{e}}vivion$ fait aujourd'hui une vive impression aux spectateurs, la part $donn{\acute{e}}e$ au $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ est le choc." Pour donner le choc aux spectateurs, le style de la torture est $tr{\grave{e}}s$ utile. $L^{\prime}esth{\acute{e}}tique$ $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tral$ du metteur en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ respecte essentiellement l'intention de l'auteur. $N{\acute{e}}anmois$, le respect sur l'original ne se $d{\acute{e}}range$ pas $l^{\prime}interpr{\acute{e}}tation$ de son propre $id{\acute{e}}e$. Dans l'insistance de la torture, l'analyse rituelle sous la base du choc, il projecte le symbole $arch{\acute{e}}typal$ sur $sc{\grave{e}}ne$. Bien $s{\hat{u}}r$, il renforce le $caract{\grave{e}}re$ de la politique dans le $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de torture pour inviter des spectateurs de l'engagement. D'ailleurs, il y a l'aspect d'absurde dans le $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ de torture qui insiste des violences ${\grave{a}}$ travers les langages $sc{\acute{e}}niques$ comme le $m{\acute{e}}tal$ froid, parce que le metteur en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ $consid{\grave{e}}re$ que $l^{\prime}{\hat{e}}tre$ humain vit dans l'absurde.

Using a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography, the separation of 20(S)-, 20(R)-prosapogenin stereo-isomers of ginsenoside-$Rg_2$ and of ginsenoside-$Rg_3$ in ginseng saponins has been carried out with binary solvent system. The optimum conditions for the isomer separation are as following: Nova-$Pak^{(R)}C_{18}$ (Waters, $3.9{\times}150mm$) column, $CH_3CN/CH_3CN$ (100:8, v/v) binary solvent system and the flow rate was 1.7 mL/min. The stereoisomers were separated with change of the mixture ratio of the solvent system, the solvent elution by gradient program, and then detected at 203 nm of UV detector. The simultaneous separation of mixture that were the $Rg_2$, $Rg_3$ isomers was easily performed in nonpolar solvent for $Rg_2$, polar solvent for $Rg_3$ at the same optimum conditions.

HeLa $S_3$ 細胞를 재료로 DNA 回復合成에 미치는 Methyl methanesulfonate(MMS)와 thymidine 相似體(BUdR, IUdR)의 이중효과를 농도와 시간변화에 따라 $^3 H$-thymidine 처리에 의한 自記放射法으로 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. MMS를 단독 처리한 경우 標識細胞의 빈도는 MMS의 농도 증가에 따라 증가한다. 이는 DNA 回復合成을 한 細胞의 빈도가 증가한 결과로 細胞當 Grain 數의 증가현상과 일치한다. 시간변화에 따른 DNA 回復合成은 MMS와 $^3 H$-thymidine 처리후 2$\\sim$3시간에 최대증가율을 보인다. 2. BUdR 또는 IUdR의 단독처리후 DNA 回復合成을 일으키지 않는다. 그러나 MMS와 이중 처리할 경우 標識細胞, DNA 回復合成細胞, 그리고 細胞當 Grain 數는 MMS 단독 처리한 경우보다 훨씬 증가한다. 따라서 이 두 물질은 MMS에 의한 DNA 回復合成을 효과적으로 증가시키는 感受性物質로 작용함이 판명되었다.

Reed-solomon(R-S) code is very effective to coerrect both random and burst errors over a noise communication channel. However, the required hardware is very complex if the B/M algorithm was employed. Moreover, when the error correction system consists of two R-S decoder and de-interleave, the I/O data bns lines becomes 9bits because of an erasure flag bit. Thus, it increases the complexity of hardware. This paper describes the R-S decoder which consisits of a error correction section that uses a direct decoding algorithm and erasure generation section and a erasure generation section which does not use the erasure flag bit. It can be shown that the proposed R-S dicoder is very effective in reducing the size of required hardware for error correction.

본 연구는 구멍갈파래 급여가 육계 혈액 내 항산화, 면역조절 효과에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해 실시 하였으며, 이를 위해 LPS로 염증반응이 유도된 육계에서 혈액 SOD 유사 활성, immunoglobulin 농도 및 비장 조직 내 cytokine mRNA 발현을 조사하였다. 공시계로는 1일령 Ross종 육계수컷 96수를 선별하여, 육계전기(0~3주), 육계후기(3~5주)의 5주 동안 사양시험을 실시하였다. 처리당 24수(3수${\times}$8반복)씩 4처리구에 총 96수를 임의배치 하여 실시하였다. 시험구 배치는 무첨가구(Negative Control ; NC), 시판 면역증강제 첨가구(Positive Control ; PC, ${\beta}$-glucan 25 ppm), 구멍갈파래 분말 3% 첨가구(Ulva pertusa kjellman Powder ; Ulva P) 및 구멍갈파래 추출물 0.3% 첨가구(Ulva pertusa kjellman Extract ; Ulva E)로 배치하였다. 혈액 내 SOD 유사 활성을 분석한 결과 구멍갈파래 첨가구 (Ulva P, Ulva E)는 무첨가구와 면역제제 첨가구보다 높은 항산화 활성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다(P<0.05). immunoglobulin 농도에서 IgA와 IgG 농도는 처리구간의 차이가 나타나지 않았지만 IgM농도에서 구멍갈파래 추출물 처리구가 무첨가구에 비해 유의적으로 낮은 수준을 나타냈다(P<0.05). 이는 구멍갈파래 추출물이 LPS에 대한 면역자극을 조절하여 과잉면역반응을 억제한 것으로 사료된다. 비장 조직 내 cytokine mRNA 발현량을 조사한 결과 IL-1, IL-2 및 IL-6에서 처리구별 공통적인 차이를 나타내었는데 구멍갈파래 처리구(Ulva P, Ulva E)의 mRNA 발현 비율이 무첨가구와 면역제제 처리구에 비해 낮았으며, 구멍갈파래 처리 간 비교에서 구멍갈파래 추출물이 분말보다 더 낮았다(P<0.05). iNOS의 경우 구멍갈파래 분말 첨가구는 무첨가구와 유의적인 차이가 없었지만 구멍갈파래 추출물 첨가구는 모든 처리구보다 iNOS의 발현이 낮았다(P<0.05). 구멍갈파래 분말과 추출물은 LPS 주입에 의한 염증 관련 사이토카인 mRNA 발현을 억제하는 경향을 나타내며, 특히 구멍갈파래 추출물이 발현억제 효과가 더 높은 것으로 확인되었다(P<0.05). 본 연구 결과 육계에서 구멍갈파래 급여는 염증, 질병의 원인인 활성산소 제거에 효과가 있다고 사료된다. 특히 구멍갈파래 추출물은 혈액 내 IgM의 농도를 조절하여 외부항원에 대한 과잉면역반응을 억제하고 염증 관련 cytokine mRNA 발현을 억제하여 육계 면역조절에 긍적적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.

Candida albicans is a dimorphic fungus that commensally colonizes human mucosal surfaces. The aim of this study was to assess the role of different C. albicans morphologies in inducing pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and cytokines in macrophages. Macrophages may respond to pathogen-associated molecular patterns via TLR2 and TLR4 by expressing cytokines. The hyphal transition of C. albicans was induced by 20% serum (S), RPMI-1640 (R), or $39^{\circ}C$ culture (H). Macrophages were then challenged with either yeast (Y) or different hyphae cultures of C. albicans, followed by RT-PCR and FACS analysis of PRRs expression. In addition, macrophages were stimulated with either yeast or different hyphae cultures of C. albicans used by RT-PCR and Bio-Plex analysis of cytokines production. Macrophages expressed high levels of TLR4 and dectin-1 after stimulation with Y cells. In contrast, stimulation with H or R cells strongly increased the expression of TLR2 and dectin-2. Stimulation with Y cells significantly enhanced the expression of IL-$1{\beta}$ and weakly increased the expression of IL-6 and IL-12. Stimulation with hyphal cells (S, R, and H) strongly increased IL-10 expression, but weakly reduced IL-$1{\beta}$ expression. The phagocytosis activity and NO production of macrophages were decreased upon treatment with hyphal cells compared with yeast, and depended on the length of hyphae. In summary, the yeast and hyphae forms of C. albicans resulted in an induction of different PRRs, with accompanying differences in immune cell cytokine profiles.

In their paper [2,3], Cameron and Storvick introduced some classes $S"+m$ and of functionals on classical Wiener spaces $C_0[a,b]$. For such functionals, they showed that the analytic Feynman integral exists and they gave some formulas for this integral. Moreover they obtained that the functionals of the form $$ (1.1) F(x) = exp {\int^b_a{\theta(s,x(x))dx} $$ are in S" where they assumbed that the potential $\delta : [a,b] \times R \to C$ satisfies (i) for each $s \in [a,b], \theta(s,\cdot)$ is the Fourier-Stieltjes transform of $\sigma_s \in M(R)$, (ii) for each Borel subset E of $[a,b] \times R, \sigma_s (E^{(s)})$ is a Borel measurable function of s on [a,b], and (iii) the total variation $\Vert \sigma_s \Vert$ of $\sigma_s$ is bounded as a function of s.tion of s.
