  • The GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) labeling system on raw materials has been in Korea since March 2001, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs)-derived foods since July 2001. Therefore, we designed a multiplex PCR method to ascertain the validity of the labeling system and to monitor the status of circulation for genetically modified maize (GM Maize). Five lines of GM Maize (GA21, TC1507, Mon810, NK603, and Bt176) were used, and specific primer pairs were designed to detect each line. Using this method, the different lines of GM Maize were monitored from raw products and processed foods in Korean market. Some of the maize processed foods and raw materials were shown to contain more than one foreign gene. This method was found to be effective for-detecting five different GM Maize in a single reaction.

  • Object detection models have become the current tool of choice for plant disease detection in precision agriculture. Most existing research improves the performance by ameliorating networks and optimizing the loss function. However, the data-centric part of a whole project also needs more investigation. In this paper, we proposed a systematic strategy with three different annotation methods for plant disease detection: local, semi-global, and global label. Experimental results on our paprika disease dataset show that a single class annotation with semi-global boxes may improve accuracy. In addition, we also studied the noise factor during the labeling process. An ablation study shows that annotation noise within 10% is acceptable for keeping good performance. Overall, this data-centric numerical analysis helps us to understand the significance of annotation methods, which provides practitioners a way to obtain higher performance and reduce annotation costs on plant disease detection tasks. Our work encourages researchers to pay more attention to label quality and the essential issues of labeling methods.

  • 목적 : 저자들은 이전 연구에서 $^{99m}Tc$-GC을 합성해 생체내 분포를 확인했다. 그 결과 GC은 고도의 간 특이성을 보였으며, 간 특이 영상을 위한 방사성 의약품으로서의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 $^{99m}Tc$-GC는 표지 수율과 안정성 면에서 불만족스러운 결과를 보였다. 이번 연구는 GC를 메틸화하는 방법과 HYNIC의 도입을 통해 표지수율과 안정성을 향상시킬 수 있는지 알아보고, 그와 함께 이 화합물들의 세포 독성에 대해 연구해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 합성한 GC, GMC, GCH를 $^{99m}Tc$로 표지하고 상온과 사람 혈청에서 표지 안정성을 측정하였으며, 6시간까지 시행하였다. 각 화합물을 0, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 5, 10, 25, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ 농도로 첨가한 HeLa와 HepG2 세포를 18시간동안 배양한 뒤 세포 생존능을 MTT를 이용해 측정하였다. 결과 : 표지 후 실온에서의 안정성 실험을 한 결과 이동상으로 아세톤을 사용한 경우 $^{99m}Tc$-GC는 15분에 96%, 1시간에 88%였고, $^{99m}Tc$-GMC는 15분, 1시간. 6시간에서 각각 100%, 97%, 89%의 향상된 표지율을 보였고 $^{99m}Tc$-GCH는 6시간까지 95% 이상을 보여 안정성이 보다 더 향상됨을 확인하였다. 또한 이동상으로 생리 식염수를 사용한 경우 $^{99m}Tc$-GC는 15분, 1시간에 73.9%, 72%를 보였고, $^{99m}Tc$-GMC의 경우 15분, 1시간, 6시간에서 96.3%, 95.8%, 75.6%의 표지율을 보였다. $^{99m}Tc$-GCH는 90% 이상의 표지 안정성을 보였고, 사람 혈청에서 6시간까지 95.7%의 표지율을 보였다. MTT를 시행한 결과. 각 화합물을 처리한 세포주의 생존능은 대조군과 비교할 때 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론 : 저자들은 GC를 메틸화하는 방법과 HYNIC의 도입을 통해 새로운 간세포 특이적 지향성을 갖는 키토산 화합물을 합성하였고, 이 화합물들은 $^{99m}Tc$으로 표지할 때 향상된 표지 수율과 뛰어난 표지 안정성을 보였다. 그리고 각 화합물들의 세포 독성 역시 원래 키토산과 의의있는 차이가 없이 매우 낮은 정도임을 증명하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 PCR을 이용하여 국내시장에 유통중인 원료콩과 가공식품에 epsps 또는 pat 유전자가 삽입된 유전자재조합 콩(GMS)의 사용여부를 모니터링하였다. 이러한 GMS의 검출을 위해 3쌍의 primer set을 제작하였고, 각각의 primer들은 GMS에 삽입된 유전자와 특이적으로 반응하여 PCR산물을 생성하였다. 2001년 표시제가 시행되기 이전에 생산된 콩 가공식품과 이후의 제품에 대해 각각 모니터링을 수행하였으며, 표시제 이전에 생산된 제품의 경우 대부분의 미국산 원료에서 epsps가삽입된 CMS가 검출되었으나, 표시제 이후에는 검출되지 않았다.

  • Glutamate-induced cobalt uptake reveals non-NMDA glutamate receptors (GluRs) in rat taste bud cells. Previous studies suggest that glutamate-induced cobalt uptake in taste cells occurs mainly via kainate type GluRs. Cobaltstained cells were immunoreactive against GluR6 and KA1 subunits of GluRs. However, the functions of those type of receptors are not known yet. It is important question which types of taste cells are cobalt-stained when stimulated by glutamate and whether they express these kinds of GluRs. Circumvallate and foliate papilla of Sprague-Dawley rats (45-60 days old) were used. A cobalt-staining technique combined with immunohistochemistry against specific markers for taste bud cell types, such as blood group H antigen (BGH), $\alpha$-gustducin (Gus), or neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) was employed. We also performed double labeling of GluR6 or KA1 subunits of GluR with each specific marker for taste bud cell types. Lots of cobaltstained taste bud cells expressed Gus-like immunoreactivity, and subsets of the cobalt stained cells appeared NCAM- or BGH-like immunoreactivity. Stimulation with 1 mM glutamate significantly increased the number of cobaltstained cells in Gus-like immunoreactive cells, but not in NCAM- or BGH-like immunoreactive cells. In the double labeling experiments, GluR6 and KA1 subunits of GluRs were mainly expressed with Gus. These results suggest that kainate glutamate receptors preferentially expressed in type II taste bud cells in rat.

  • 기존의 대표적인 입력장치는 키보드, 마우스 등으로 한정적이었으나 최근 들어 사용자들의 다양한 요구에 따라 새로운 형태의 입력장치들이 개발되는 추세이다. 이러한 추세에 맞춰 특수한 device 없이 영상의 hand motion을 분석해 명령을 부여하는 새로운 형태의 입력장치를 제안한다. Cam-Shift 기법으로 skin color 영역을 이진화 하여 tracking 한 후, labeling을 통해 분리한 손가락 영역과 손 중심점과의 각도를 동서남북으로 구분해 counting하여 손동작을 인식한다. 손동작에 대한 입력은 맨손에 배경처리를 하지 않은 경우 약 76.8%의 낮은 인식률을 보였으나, 붉은색 장갑을 착용하고 배경을 지정해 줄 경우 잡영 제거의 영향으로 인식률이 90.2%까지 향상된다.

  • Radiopharmaceuticals that can be consumed in specific disease site play a key role In order to diagnose and treat the diseases. In addition, radiopharmaceuticals can be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes depending on the type of the labeled radioactive isotope. Recently, theragnostic radiopharmaceuticals that can simultaneously diagnose and treat are developed. Therefore, the development of target-specific radiopharmaceuticals is a very important research topic in the field of molecular imaging and therapy. This review paper summarizes the basic considerations for the development of radiopharmaceuticals. For new researchers or students who are now beginning in the field of radiopharmaceuticals, we intend to assist in the development of radiopharmaceuticals by describing the definition of radiopharmaceuticals, the ideal radiopharmaceutical conditions, the considerations for developing new radiopharmaceuticals, the factors affecting the design of radiopharmaceuticals, the requirements of radioisotope labeling reactions, and finally the definition and importance of molar activity in radiopharmaceuticals.

  • Deep learning has been applied to various medical data. In particular, current deep learning models exhibit remarkable performance at specific tasks, sometimes offering higher accuracy than that of experts for discriminating specific diseases from medical images. The current status of deep learning applications to molecular imaging can be divided into a few subtypes in terms of their purposes: differential diagnostic classification, enhancement of image acquisition, and image-based quantification. As functional and pathophysiologic information is key to molecular imaging, this review will emphasize the need for accurate biomarker acquisition by deep learning in molecular imaging. Furthermore, this review addresses practical issues that include clinical validation, data distribution, labeling issues, and harmonization to achieve clinically feasible deep learning models. Eventually, deep learning will enhance the role of theranostics, which aims at precision targeting of pathophysiology by maximizing molecular imaging functional information.

  • The present study investigated the cellular localization of a-subunit of Gq (Gaq) protein in developing L8E63, rat skeletal muscle cell line. The colocalization of Gaq with actin cytoskeleton was demonstrated by double-labeling experiments. In mononucleated myoblasts, the immuno-fluorescence staining pattern of Gaq was almost identical with that of F-actin visualized with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin. However, this colocalization of Gaq with cytoskeleton was not maintained in multinucleated myotubes. The staining pattern of Gaq in myotubes did not match with any specific subcellular structure, but appeared as a uniformly distributed diffuse staining throughout the whole cell surface. Interestingly, change in the expression level of Gaq was not detected during myoblast differentiation, suggesting that actin-associated Gaq protein might dissociate from the cytoskeleton as cells differentiate. Immunocytochemical experiments using specific antibodies directed against several G proteins indicated that the subcellular localizations of Gai1, Gai2, Gai3, and Gao were different from those obtained with Gaq.

  • RNA 분해효소에 저항하는 RNA 분자들이 양서류의 난에 존재하는지의 여부를 조사하기 전에 필요한 몇가지 예비실험을 하기 위하여 Xenopus laevis에 난에서 RNA를 추출 하였다. Sephadex G-100 column chromatography는 세 개의 peak을 항상 보여주고 있다. 첫째 peak에 포함되어있는 고분자량의 RNA만을 $^{3}H$-dimethyl sulfate를 사용하여 시험관내에서 label하여 tRNA로부터의 base paired oligonucleotide의 참여를 배제하였다. 이 방법으로 아주 높은 specific activity를 얻을 수 있었으며 또한 부착된 methyl group은 대단히 안정성을 보였다.
