Mitochondrial DNAs has been used frequently as genetic markers for the population genetic studies of salmonid fishes. Samples used in this experiment were chum salmons (Oncorhynchus keta) from Korea. We analyzed variation of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 3 gene (ND3) among 4 individuals of the Korea population. Genomic DNA was extracted from the liver of the chum salmon samples. Then, the ND3 gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) including the 3' region of cytochrome oxidase III gene (COIII) and the 5` region of NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4L gene (ND4L). The size of the PCR product was 752 Up and the sequences showed some genetic variation among those four individuals. Genetic variations were observed in 7 sites as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Within the open reading frame of the ND3 gene which encodes 116 amino acids, 5 nucleotide substitutions were found. Both transitional and transversional changes occurred more frequently with transitional changes. Comparison of these sequences with the others of a Japanese chum salmon in GenBank showed 5 sites of SNPs. This study provided the basic information of SNP in ND3 gene among Korean chum salmons and demonstrated the possible use of the SNP data as a genetic marker.

New supplements with preventive effects against skin photodamage are receiving increasing attention. This study evaluated the anti-photoaging effects of salmon nasal cartilage proteoglycan (SPG), acting as a functional material for skin health. We administered SPG to in vitro and in vivo models exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation and assessed its moisturizing and anti-wrinkle effects on dorsal mouse skin and keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts cell lines. These results showed that SPG restored the levels of filaggrin, involucrin, and AQP3 in the epidermis of UVB-irradiated dorsal skin and keratinocytes, thereby enhancing the keratinization process and water flow. Additionally, SPG treatment increased the levels of hyaluronan and skin ceramide, the major components of intercellular lipids in the epidermis. Furthermore, SPG treatment significantly increased the levels of collagen and procollagen type 1 by down-regulating matrix metalloproteinase 1, which play a crucial role in skin fibroblasts, in both in vitro and in vivo models. In addition, SPG strongly inhibited mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPKs) signaling, the including extracellular signal-regulated kinase, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38. These findings suggest that dietary SPG may be an attractive functional food for preventing UVB-induced photoaging. And this SPG product may provide its best benefit when treating several signs of skin photoaging.

연어 훈제 가공품의 제조 중 부산물로 발생하는 연어 frame을 곰탕 유사 제품과 같이 보다 효율적으로 이용할 목적으로 연어 frame 엑스분의 제조를 시도하였고, 아울러 이의 특성을 시판 제품과 비교 검토하였다. 연어 frame 엑스분은 연어 frame에 대하여 12배의 가공용수를 가한고, 12시간 동안 열수추출하여, 원심분리 및 정용(추출을 위하여 사용한 가공용수의 25%로 정용)하여 제품화 하는 것이 가장 좋았다. 최적조건에서 제조한 연어 frame 엑스분은 중금속적인면에서는 안전한 범위이었고, 주 맛성분은 glutamic acid와 aspartic acid등이었다. 또한, 연어 frame엑스분의 주요 총아미노산은 glycine, proline 및 glutamic acid 등이었고, 칼슘과 인의 함량은 $1{\sim}2$인분 기준(시판 제품에서 $1{\sim}2$인용으로 시판되는 용량인 500mL 기준)에서 1일 권장량의 약 20% 및 18%에 해당하는 함량이었다. 연어 frame엑스분은 고혈압 억제능인 ACE 저해능은 거의 인정되지 않았으나, 이를 Flavourzyme으로 4시간 가수분해하는 경우 ACE 저해능$(IC_{50}=2mg/mL)$이 상당히 개선되었다. 그러나 연어 frame 엑스분의 고혈압 저해능을 기대하기 위하여는 적절한 가수 분해 조건의 구명이 동반되어야 하리라 판단되었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 연어 frame에 대하여 12배의 가공용수를 가하고, 12시간 동안 열수추출하여, 원심분리 및 정용(연어 frame에 대하여 3배에 해당하는 용량)한 다음 적절히 효소 가수분해하는 경우 곰탕 유사 제품의 베이스로 사용 가능하리라 판단되었다.

The purpose of this study was to determined the rate of sensitization to food allergen in children with Atopic Dermatitis (AD) in Korea. A total of 3,783 patients (male = 1983, female = 1800) with AD (age under 18 years) who had visited Samsung Medical Center from 1998 to 2003 were enrolled in the study. Food hypersensitivity was measured by specific IgE to egg, cow's milk, soy, peanut, wheat, buckwheat, beef, pork, chicken, shrimp, crab, salmon, mackerel, etc. Specific IgE levels > 0.7 kU/L. by Captured Allergen Product (CAP) assay were considered positive. Chi-square test at p value < 0.05 was used to examine the difference of the prevalence by sex and age. The rate of sensitization to multiple food allergens was 31.2% and decreased with age. Hypersensitivity to egg showed highest prevalence, which was 24.3%, compared to the prevalence of other foods. High prevalence of hypersensitivity to milk. wheat, soy, peanut, crab or shrimp was observed (11.6- 17.7%). Low prevalence of hypersensitivity to beef, pork, tuna or chicken was observed (1.9-3.5%). Children aged under 3 years had significantly higher prevalence of hypersensitivity to egg, milk, soy and beef than children aged at least 3 years. Our results stress the need for examination of food hypersensitivity aimed at identified and limited each food allergen among children with AD caused by food to help patients outgrow their food allergy.

Protamine has been widely used as a pharmaceutical product and natural food preservative. However, few studies have been conducted to assess the beneficial function of dietary protamine. This study examined the effects of dietary salmon protamine on serum and liver lipid levels and the expression levels of genes encoding proteins involved in lipid homeostasis in the liver of rats. Groups of male Wistar rats were fed AIN93G diet containing 2% or 5% protamine. After 4 weeks of feeding these diets, markedly decreased serum and liver cholesterol (CHOL) and triacylglycerol levels were noted. Increased activity of liver carnitine palmitoyltransferase-2 and acyl-CoA oxidase, which are key enzymes of fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation in the mitochondria and peroxisomes, was found in rats fed on protamine. Furthermore, rats fed protamine showed enhanced fecal excretion of CHOL and bile acid and increased liver mRNA expression levels of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) G5 and ABCG8, which form heterodimers and play a major role in the secretion of CHOL into bile. The decrease in triacylglycerol levels in protamine-fed rats was due to the enhancement of liver ${\beta}$-oxidation. Furthermore, rats fed protamine exhibited decreased CHOL levels through the suppression of CHOL and bile acid absorption and the enhancement of CHOL secretion into bile. These results suggest that dietary protamine has beneficial effects that may aid in the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases such as hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Re-epithelialization has an important role in skin wound healing. Astaxanthin (ASX), a carotenoid found in crustaceans including shrimp, crab, and salmon, has been widely used for skin protection. Therefore, we investigated the effects of ASX on proliferation and migration of human skin keratinocyte cells and explored the mechanism associated with that migration. MATERIAL/METHOD: HaCaT keratinocyte cells were exposed to $0.25-1{\mu}g/mL$ of ASX. Proliferation of keratinocytes was analyzed by using MTT assays and flow cytometry. Keratinocyte migration was determined by using a scratch wound-healing assay. A mechanism for regulation of migration was explored via immunocytochemistry and western blot analysis. RESULTS: Our results suggest that ASX produces no significant toxicity in human keratinocyte cells. Cell-cycle analysis on ASX-treated keratinocytes demonstrated a significant increase in keratinocyte cell proliferation at the S phase. In addition, ASX increased keratinocyte motility across the wound space in a time-dependent manner. The mechanism by which ASX increased keratinocyte migration was associated with induction of filopodia and formation of lamellipodia, as well as with increased Cdc42 and Rac1 activation and decreased RhoA activation. CONCLUSIONS: ASX stimulates the migration of keratinocytes through Cdc42, Rac1 activation and RhoA inhibition. ASX has a positive role in the re-epithelialization of wounds. Our results may encourage further in vivo and clinical study into the development of ASX as a potential agent for wound repair.

본 연구에서는 담수사육 감성돔을 대상으로 수온을 상승시켰을 때, 세포적 스트레스 측면에서 HSP90 및 HSP70 mRNA의 발현 정도를, 신경-내분비적 스트레스 측면에서 혈장 cortisol 및 glucose 농도를 조사하였다. RT-PCR법을 이용하여 생식소로부터 HSP90 (891 bp) 및 HSP70 (465 bp) cDNA 단편을 클로닝 하여, 타 종과 그 상동성을 비교해 본 결과, 감성돔 HSP90은 참돔 HSP90과 99%, 무지개송어 HSP90과 95%, 대서양 연어HSP90과 94%, zebrafish HSP90과 94%로 나타났으며, 감성돔 HSP70은 무지개송어 HSP70과 96%, silver seabream HSP70과 95%, zebrafish HSP70과 95%의 상동성을 나타내었다. 감성돔의 사육수온을 $30\;^{\circ}C$로 상승시켰을 때, HSP90 mRNA는 모든 조직에서 그 발현 정도가 $20\;^{\circ}C$ 실험구에 비하여 $7{\sim}9$배 정도 높았으나, HSP70 mRNA는 생식소에서만 발현하는 것으로 나타났다. 혈장 cortisol 및 glucose 농도는 $20\;^{\circ}C$ 실험구에 비하여 $30\;^{\circ}C$ 실험구에서 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다.
