Nicotine has been implicated as a potential factor in the pathogenesis of human lung cancer, however its mechanism of action in the development of lung cancer remains largely unknown. To explore the role of nicotine in the development of lung cancer, we first investigated the effects of nicotine on the expression of tumor associated genes by treating Sprague-Dawley rats with nicotine (10 mg/kg) by gavage once daily for 10 days. We determined the expression of proteins and mRNAs of the ras, raf, myc, jun, fos oncogenes and p53, Rb tumor suppressor genes by Western and Northern blotting, respectively. We did not detect any changes on the levels of proteins and mRNAs of these tumor associated genes in the lung of Sprague-Dawley rats from 3 days to 12 weeks after the last treatment of nicotine, indicating that nicotine appears to have no effect on expression of these oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes at an early stage in multistage chemical carcinogenesis. In a second experiment, we investigated the possibility that 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) could be formed endogenously by treating with nicotine and sodium nitrite. We treated groups of Fischer 344 rats with nicotine ($60{\mu}mol/kg$) and sodium nitrite ($180{\mu}mol/kg$), nicotine, sodium nitrite and NNK (120 nmol/kg) alone by gavage once daily for 7 days, respectively and determined the 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), as an indicator of NNK formation, in the lungs of rats 24 hours and 48 hours after the last treatment by HPLC/ECD method. We detect increased level of 8-OHdG in the lungs of rats treated with NNK, but in the case of nicotine plus sodium nitrite, nicotine and sodium nitrite alone we could not detected any changes of 8-OHdG, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to observe the relationship between smoking and control factors to blood pressure, such as sodium and potassium levels of dietary intake and serum in 67 rural university male students(smoker: 35 persons, non smoker: 32 persons). 3-day dietary record and blood sampling were conducted for measurements of the levels of dietary intake and serum. The results were as follows: 1) There are no significance between smokers and non-smokers in height, weight, and BMI. 2) Mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure of smokers and non-smokers were $131.33\pm93.75mmHg, \;119.37\pm80.62mmHg, $ respectively. Blood pressure of smoker was higher than that of non-smokers(p＜0.05). 3) There was no significant difference between smoker and non smoker in dietary potassium intake but dietary sodium intake and Na/K ratio of smoker were higher than those of non-smokers(p＜0.05, p＜0.05). And significant correlation was found between dietary sodium intake and blood pressure of smokers(p＜0.05). 4) Smokers of optimum gustation of salt(0.52%) was higher than that of non-smokers(0.49%). Even though blood pressure of smokers was not critical level, if they smoke continuosely until middle age, their blood pressure will be increased by smoking. The results of this study suggest that no smoking education program for smokers including the information about desirable food habits for prevention of hypertension should be developed.

The effect of sodium and sodium salts on carcass and body organ characteristics of broilers under a four phase feeding program were investigated. A basal diet (0.08% dNa with NaCl) was formulated and one of two sources of dNa ($NaHCO_3$ and $Na_2SO_4$) were supplemented to obtain four different percentages of dNa (0.17, 0.26, 0.35, and 0.44%) for each treatment. There was a linear decrease in dressing percentage (DP) with source ${\times}$ level interaction ($p{\leq}0.001$), while there was a linear increase in breast yield and thigh yield with increasing dNa supplementation ($p{\leq}0.001$). Chicks fed 0.35% $NaHCO_3$ and 0.44% dNa $Na_2SO_4$ supplemental salts had lower abdominal fat ($p{\leq}0.04$). Chicks that received increasing levels of dNa (from 0.17 to 0.44%) showed increasing gizzard weight ($p{\leq}0.02$) and decreasing spleen weight ($p{\leq}0.02$). When both salts were supplemented at 0.26% dNa, the chicks showed their lowest bursa weight ($p{\leq}0.001$). Consequently, chicks at higher dNa showed an increase in breast and thigh meat yield, and increasing capacity of their digestive organ. The higher levels of dNa should be tested with other cations and anions to fully understand acid base homoeostasis.

Sodium butyrate (NaBt)는 장에서 탄수화물대사로부터 생겨나는 짧은 천연지방산 사슬로 다양한 인간 암세포들 에게서 강력한 항암효능을 나타냄이 보고된 바 있지만 자세한 기전은 아직 알려져 있지 않다. 이 논문에서 우리는 NaBt가 주요 세포부착분자이면서 종양억제인자의 일종인 E-cadherin의 발현을 세포-특이적으로 촉진하는 기전을 연구하였다. 또한 NaBt는 E-eadherin의 발현을 촉진하는 것으로 알려진 p21의 발현도 증가시켰지만, NaBt에 의하여 증가한 p21은 E-cadherin의 활성화와 관련이 없음이 밝혀졌다. 그 대신에 NaBt는 CCAAT-box를 통한 E-cadherin 유전자의 프로모터 활성을 증가시킴으로써 E-cadherin의 발현을 전사수준에서 촉진하는 것 같다. 이렇게 NaBt에 의하여 증가된 E-cadherin은 주로 세포간 접촉면에 위치하면서 Hep3B 세포를 더 분화된 형태로 유도하여 NaBt의 항암활성이 나타나는 것 같다.

To investigate Oiji (traditional Korean cucumber pickles) with reduced sodium content based on the use of saline foods as a salt substitute, Oiji was prepared using glasswort powder (Salicornia herbacea L.), and its physicochemical properties and sensory evaluation were examined. The moisture content of Oiji was shown to be higher in those to which glasswort powder had been added compared to the control without addition of glasswort powder, and Oiji with 40% glasswort powder substitute showed the highest pH and lowest acidity, resulting in slow progression of fermentation. The salinity of Oiji among those containing glasswort powder substitute was significantly higher with increasing level of glasswort powder. The sodium content of Oiji was significantly reduced as addition of glasswort powder increased. The L value of Oiji decreased with increased addition of glasswort powder, whereas the a value was highest in the control. The hardness of Oiji was higher in the control than in Oiji containing glasswort powder. Taste acceptance was highest for Oiji with 20% glasswort powder substitute, whereas acceptance of appearance was higher for Oiji with 10% glasswort powder substitute. Flavor and texture acceptance was higher for the control. In the attribute difference test, significant differences were found in brownness, off-flavor, salty taste, and sourness. Based on the findings, 10-20% substitution of salt with glasswort powder did not significantly lower overall acceptance compared to the control while salinity of Oiji was maintained. Therefore, the potential production of low-sodium Oiji has been verified.

본 연구는 볏짚 사일리지의 곰팡이 독소 저감을 위한 효율적 방안으로 화학적 처리 방법에 따른 효능에 관한 진보적 연구 자료를 제공하고자 실시하였다. 화학적 처리 방법으로 암모니아 및 가성소다를 이용 곰팡이독소에 오염된 볏짚의 4% 수준으로 각각 처리하고 사일리지 저장에 따른 곰팡이독소 저감, 발효 품질 및 섬유소 소화에 미치는 영향을 평가 하였다. 모든 실험구에서 Aflatoxin B₁, B₂, G₁, G₂ 그리고 Fomonisin B₁, B₂ 뿐만 아니라 Dexynivalenol은 검출되지 않았으며, Ochratoxin A와 Zearalenone이 검출되었다. 그리고 Ochratoxin A은 대조구(41.23g/kg)보다 화학적 처리구에서 낮게 검출되었다(p<0.05). Zearalenone은 대조구(600.33㎍/kg) 및 암모니아 처리구(376.00㎍/kg)에 비하여 가성소다 처리구(297.44㎍/kg)가 더 낮은 결과를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 볏짚 사일리지의 pH는 암모니아 처리구(4.63)가 가장 낮았고, 가성소다 처리구가 가장(8.19) 높았다(p<0.05). lactic acid 함량은 대조구와 암모니아 처리구(10.85와 10.98mM)는 유사한 수준이었으나 가성소다 처리구(8.80mM)가 가장 낮았다(p,0.05). Propionic acid는 대조구(0.55mM)가 화학처리구에 비하여 높았으며(p<0.05), 암모니아와 가성소다 처리구간(0.09와 0.07mM)에는 유사한 함량을 나타내었다. 화학처리에 따른 볏짚 사일리지의 반추위 미생물의 NDF 및 ADF의 분해율 모두 가성소다 처리구가 가장 높은 분해율을 보였고 다음으로 암모니아 처리구이었으며, 대조구가 가장 낮은 수준을 나타내었다(p<0.05). 따라서 본 연구결과는 볏짚 사일리지 제조공정에서 암모니아 및 가성 소다 처리가 곰팡이 독소 저감 및 볏짚 사일리지의 반추위 미생물 분해율 증진에 좋은 영향을 주는 것으로 사료되며, 가성소다 처리는 암모니아 처리에 비하여 곰팡이 독소 저감 및 섬유소 분해율 증진에 더 효율적이었으나 사일리지 발효에는 비효율적 영향을 준 것으로 사료된다.

In Australia, many cropping areas are affected by salt. In these regions, Chenopodiaceous plants, such as Atriplex, Kochia and Bassia spp have been planted to improve soil conditions. These plants have become invaluable feed resources for grazing animals in dry summers, but have a high sodium content. To assess the impact of high salt intake on grazing deer, two experiments were conducted. The first experiment used 30 fallow weaner deer to examine the effect of salt level in the diet on feed intake, water intake and body weight of fallow deer. Salt was added to lucerne chaff at 0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6% and fresh water was offered all the time. Increasing the salt level in the diet from 0 to 6% didn't affect feed intake, osmotic pressure and mineral concentration in blood of fallow deer. However, water intake was significantly higher (p<0.05) in deer fed diets containing more than 3% salt. Body weight was lower (p${\leq}$0.056) for fallow deer in July and August when salt content was over 3%, suggesting they can ingest over 15 g sodium/day without significant depression in both feed intake and growth rate if the fresh water is available. In the second experiment, 18 red weaner deer were fed lucerne chaff diets containing 1.5, 4.5 and 6.0% salt with 6 deer/diet. The results revealed that feed intake and blood osmotic pressure were similar (p>0.05) for red deer fed different levels of salt although the feed intake declined from 1.91 to 1.67 kg with the increase of salt level from 1.5% to 6.0% in the diet. Water intake was significantly higher for deer fed diets containing over 4.5% salt, but there was no difference in body weight during the experiment. However, no recommendation can be made on the salt tolerance of red deer due to limited increment of salt level in the diet.

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate quality characteristics of cured pork loin with natural nitrite source from Swiss chard. Methods: Pork loin was cured in brine and the ratio of water and fermented Swiss chard (FSC) solution in the brine was changed by 4:0 (control), 3:1 (T1), 1:1 (T2), 1:3 (T3), 0:4 (T4), and pickled samples with 0.012% sodium nitrite (PC, positive control) and nitrite free brine (NC, negative control) were considered as the control. Results: The pH values of cured pork loins with FSC were decreased with increasing addition level of FSC. Cooking loss was not significantly different among all treatments. T4 had the lowest value in moisture content and lightness value and the highest value in curing efficiency. The redness value of T4 was not significantly different from that of PC in raw. After cooking, however, it was higher than that of PC. The yellowness value of cured pork loin added with FSC was increased with increasing level of FSC. Volatile basic nitrogen content of cured pork loin added with FSC was higher than PC and NC. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance value of cured pork loin added with FSC was decreased with increasing FSC level. Residual nitrite level and shear force were increased with increasing FSC level. In the sensory evaluation, sensory score for flavor, off-flavor, chewiness, juiciness, and overall acceptability were not significantly different among all treatments. However, sensory score for color was increased when the concentration of FSC added to pork loin was increased. Conclusion: The FSC solution had a positive effect on redness and lipid oxidation. As shown by the results in protein deterioration and sensory, Swiss chard can replace sodium nitrite as natural curing agent.
