The use of basic fibroblast growth factor which function as potent biologic mediators regulating numerous activities of wound healing has been suggested for the promotion of periodontal regeneration. The mitogenic effects of basic fibroblast growth factor on human periodontal ligament cells and human gingival fibroblasts were evaluated by determining the incorporation of 5-Bromo-2'deoxy-uridine into DNA of the cells in a dose -dependent manner. The cells which were prepared were the primary cultured gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells from human the fourth or sixth subpassages were used in the experiments. The cells which were seeded DMEM contain 10% FBS. The added concentrations of basic fibroblast growth factor were 0.1, 1, 10, 50, $l00{\eta}g/ml$ and basic fibroblast growth factor were added to the quiescent cells for 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. They were labeled with $10{\mu}l/200{\mu}l$ 5Bromo-2'-deoxy-uridine for the last 6 hours of each culture. The results of the five determinants were presented as mean and S.D.. The results were as follows. : The DNA synthetic activity of human gingival fibroblasts was increased dose dependently by basic fibroblast growth factor at 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. The similar mitogenic effects were at the 24 and 48 hours of basic fibroblast growth factor, but the DNA synthetic activity of human gingival fibroblasts generally decreased at 72 hours. The DNA synthetic activity of human periodontal ligament cells was increased dose dependently to $50{\eta}g/ml$ by basic fibroblast growth factor at 24, 48 and 72 hours, but the DNA synthetic activity decreased at $l00{\eta}g/ml$ of each hour. Generally the maximum mitogenic effects were at the 48 hours application of basic fibroblast growth factor. The DNA synthetic activity of human periodontal ligament cells generally decreased lower at 72 hours than at 24, 48 hours the application of basic fibroblast growth factor. In the comparison of DNA synthetic activity between human gingival fibroblasts and human periodontal ligament cells, human periodontal ligament cells had slightly higher proliferation activity than human gingival fibroblasts for a longer time at the high dosage of the basic fibroblast growth factor.In conclusion, basic fibroblast growth factor have important roles in the stimulation of DNA synthesis in human periodontal ligament cells and human gingival fibroblasts, and thus may be useful for clinical applications in periodontal regenerative procedures.

Antithiamin activities of BHA, BHT PG and TBHQ of synthetic phenolic antioxidants at various pH's and temperatures were studied. All antioxidants had little antithiamin activity as is the case with control group at pH 4 and $38^{\circ}C$, but antithiamin activity was stronger at $60^{\circ}C$ than at $38^{\circ}C$ under the same pH. Meanwhile, the destruction of thiamin incubated at $38^{\circ}C$ was more rapid at pH 7 than at pH 4, and the destruction of thiamin at pH 7 was much more rapid at $60^{\circ}C$ than at $38^{\circ}C$. BHA and BHT had little, or extremely slight antithiamin activity. Antithiamin activity of PG was comparatively strong, but TBHQ had the strongest antithiamin activity among synthetic phenolic antioxidants examined.

The synthetic oligomers called nos right palindrome (RP) element and left palindrome (LP) element were inserted into nos.minimal promoter nos 5'-101 deletion mutant The activity of nos promoter was measured by studying the expression pattern of gene fusion between nos promoter and reporter genes such as chloramphenicol acetyltransferase and $\beta$-glucuconidase. Analysis of transgenic tobacco plane carrying transgene showed that the activity of nos minimal promoter activity was recovered by insertion of synthetic nos RP element. Nos RP element insertion of nos minimal promoter was induced by auxin, dithiothreitol, salicylic acid and methyl jasmonate.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of IGF-I for DNA synthetic activity and the mRNA expression of bone matrix protein, type I collagen and osteopontin in prolifetation and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. To evaluate DNA synthetic activity, cells were seeded at $2{\times}10^4cells/ml$ in 24 well plates and to evaluate mRNA of type I collagen and osteopontin cells were seeded at $5{\times}10^5cells/ml$ in 100mm culture dishes. These cells were cultured in alpha-minimum essential medium(${\alpha}-MEM$) containing 10% fetal bovine serum at $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ incubator. For DNA synthetic activity test 1, 10, 100ng/ml IGF-I were added to the cells which had been cultured for 3 days before 24 hours. For type I collagen mRNA expression 1, 10ng/ml IGF-I were added to the cells which had been cultured for 5, 10 days and for osteopontin mRNA expression 0.1, 1, 10ng/ml IGF-I were added to the cells which had been cultured for 5, 15, 20 days. Cell proliferaton was measured by the incorporation of [$^3H$]-thymidine into DNA and expression for type I collagen and osteopontin were measured by northern blot analysis. The results were as follows : DNA synthetic activity were generally higher in experimental group than control group. Expressions of type I collagen mRNA were higher at 5 day group and much lower at 10 day group in the control groups. In the experimental groups, mRNA expressions were slightly increased when 1 ng/ml IGF-I were added to 5 day group and decreased in all experimental 10 day groups. Expressions of osteopontin mRNA were higher at 20 day groups and lower at 15 day groups than the control groups. In the experimental groups, mRNA expressions were incereased when 0.1, 1 ng/ml IGF-I were added to 5 day group and in all the 15 day groups, but decreased when 0.1, 1, 10 ng/ml IGF-I were added to 20 day groups. IGF-I stimulated DNA synthetic activity of MC3T3-E1 cells during proliferation stage significantly, did not greatly changed effects on type I collagen mRNA expression and stimulated osteopontin mRNA expression at 15 day especially. In conclusion, we suggests that IGF-I have a tendency of stimulation effect of DNA synthetic activity but do not stimulate type I collagen mRNA in proliferation stage of MC3T3-E1 cell cultures, and stimulate osteopontin mRNA in differentiation stage of MC3T3-E1 cell cultures.

This paper was focused on investigating synthetic fabrics treated with persimmon juice by padding mangle repeatedly. The merit of dyeing by pad-dry method was easier color reproduction than dyeing by immersion method. With increasing number of padding, the dyed nylon fabrics showed deeper yellow-red colors, but dyed polyester fabrics had no uniform tendency. The dyed synthetic fabrics had a 3rd grade of ligtht, 4~5th grade of perspiration fastness, 5th grade of stain washing fastness, and 3~5th grade of rubbing fastness. As the number of padding and exposed time to sunlight or UV light increase, the value of K/S and ${\Delta}E$ increased and the colors become much deeper gradually. The color development had completed about 70 hours exposure to UV light. As the padding time of dyeing with persimmon juice increased, stiffness and water repellent property were enhanced, respectively. Also, the dyed synthetic fabrics had good antibacterial activity and deodorization.

The present paper describes the effects of pressure and post-mortem aging treatments on in situ proteasome activity in rabbit and bovine skeletal muscles. Synthetic peptide hydrolyzing activity of rabbit proteasomes remained in the muscle after exposure to pressures up to 100 MPa. However, when a pressure of 400 MPa or more was applied, proteasomes were markedly inactivated. The extraction of proteasomes from excessively pressurized muscle appeared to be difficult. Proteasomes in aged muscle remained relatively stable throughout the aging process, with activity after 168 h (7 days) being 35%, 48%, 53% and 31% of the 0 h post-mortem LLVY, LSTR, AAF and LLE total hydrolyzing activities, respectively. The synthetic peptide hydrolyzing activities of bovine muscle proteasomes were similar to those of rabbit skeletal muscle proteasomes. The results suggest that synthetic peptide hydrolyzing activity remains in muscle exposed to relatively low pressures. Furthermore, it is known that high-pressure treatment induces fragmentation of myofibrils, modification of actin-myosin interaction and activation of intramuscular proteinases, cathepsins and calpains. Thus, proteasomes are probably involved in the tenderization process in combination with other intramuscular proteinases under high-pressure conditions. Our findings confirmed that proteasomes play a role in meat tenderization induced by high-pressure treatment or aging.

This study was carried out to understand the activity of pepsin, the proteolytic enzyme, to octapeptide (angiotensin II) in the presence of various synthetic antioxidants as food additives. 1) Dibutyl hydroxy toluene, butyl hydroxyanisole and ethyl protocathechuate did not influence the inhibitory activity of pepsin an the octapeptide as a substrate, but sodium-L-ascorbate inhibited pepsin activity at above 100ppm. However sodium L-ascorbate was completely removed after 30 minutes. 2) Pepsin brought about a quick break up the octapeptide, Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Gly-Phe, by splitting the Gly-Phe and Val-Tyr bond. 3) The melting point of synthetized octapeptide was $209-212^{\circ}C$, chemical formula and molecula weight were $C_{43}H_{65}N_{13}O_{12}{\cdot}CH_3COOH{\cdot}H_2O$ and 956.05, respectively. 4) The amino acid mole ratio of synthetized octapeptide by acid hydrolysis were Asp:0.98, Arg: 1.02, Val: 1.00. Tyr: 0.95, Ile: 1.00, His: 1.03, Gly: 0.96, Phe: 1.00.
