The tadpoles of 12 Korean anuran species, including Bombina orientalis, Bufo gargarizans, B. stejnegeri, Hyla japonica, Kaloula borealis, Rana dybowskii, R. huanrenensis, R. coreana, R. nigromaculata, R. chosenica, R. rugosa, and R. catesbeiana, were classified based on their morphological characteristics. We collected eggs or tadpoles of the 12 Korean anuran species from Gangwon, Incheon, Chungcheong, and Gyeonggi districts in 2005 and 2006 breeding seasons. When the tadpoles reached at $27{\sim}37$ Gosner's developmental stages, we described morphological characteristics of the tadpoles of each anuran species and measured their physical parameters such as total length, body length, and body mass. After that, we chose 12 morphological characteristics to identify each species and to use them as classification keys such as eye location, caudal musculature pattern, spiracle location, oral disc morphology, and labial tooth row formula. In this paper, we presented classification keys, morphological characteristics, and drawings for the tadpoles of 12 anuran species.

참개구리(Rana nigromaculata) 꼬리 퇴화과정에 따른 피부 상피조직의 분화와 세포자멸사에 의해 초래된 상피의 미세구조적 변화를 TUNEL 조직화학적 염색 및 고배율의 투과전자현미경 관찰을 통해 확인하였다. 꼬리의 퇴화가 시작되는 Shumway 31단계의 올챙이 피부에 발달되어 있던 점액층은 발생 32 단계를 거쳐 사라지고 상피는 비후되어 꼬리의 퇴화가 완료되는 발생 33 단계에 도달하면 성체인 개구리의 다층상피로 전환되었다. TUNEL 염색결과, 꼬리 퇴화과정중 apoptosis 세포의 출현은 원위부(distal region)의 꼬리에서 시작되어 몸통 쪽의 근위부(proximal region)로 이행되었고, 동일 상피층에서는 내강부로부터 기저부로 전이되는 특성을 보였다. 투과 전자현미경 관찰 결과, 세포자멸사에 의한 초기의 변형은 인접세포와의 세포간극이 사라지고 밀착된 후, 핵의 모양이 불규칙해지고 염색질이 응축되었다. 이어서 세포질에 다수의 자유 리보솜이 나타나고, 핵의 분절이 일어난 후, apoptotic body가 출현하며, 이들은 최종적으로 라멜라 구조를 지닌 잔여소체(residual body)를 형성하였다

The final pattern of the skeletal muscle of a vertebrate depends on the position-specific behavior of the muscle precursor cells during early developmental process and the abdominal muscle is made of cells which migrate a relatively long distance from their original tissue, myotome of dorsal mesoderm. We report the spatia-temporal migration pattern of abdominal muscle in Xenopus laevis by in situ hybridization and immunohistological studies. Shortly after hatching tadpole stage (stage 31/32), a group of myotomal cells detaches from the lower tip of the second somite and migrates ventrally to the lower position of abdomen. At stage 34/35, a second cell group migrates away from the third somite. Total 7 myotomal cell groups migrate ventrally one by one from the second to eighth myotome along their own pathways through the cell free space located between epidermis and subepidermal layer of the abdomen. During migration, the sizes of the cell groups (abdominal muscle anlagens) are increased to several tens fold. Around stage 40 all the abdominal muscle anlagens reaches their final positions and are interconnected side by side rostrocaudally. They are also connected to other types of muscles, forming a large multisegmented abdominal muscle. Heat shock study suggests that the disruption of segmentation of somites does not block the detachment of abdominal muscle anlagen, though the treatment gave stage- and dosagedependent effects on the migration speed.

The egg white phantom is a thermal lesion visualization phantom able to illustrate a thermal lesion. It is often used to evaluate the performance of HIFU and is less expensive than the BSA phantom. This study determined the optimal phantom composition for evaluated therapeutic ultrasound machines by varying the egg white concentration in the egg white phantom and demonstrated its utility as a therapeutic ultrasound phantom. The egg white phantom at varying egg white concentrations (10-40% in 10% intervals) was fabricated, and its thermal properties and acoustic properties were assessed. In addition, the size and shape of the formed lesion were compared between the egg white phantom and bovine liver tissue according to the electrical power. The results showed that 30% egg white phantom was optimal for the performance evaluation due to its thermal and acoustic properties. The generated thermal lesions formed sequentially as a cigar, ellipse, tadpole, and cone shapes according to the electrical power; a similar tendency was observed in the liver tissue. Hence, we conclude that the egg white phantom will prove useful in quantitatively evaluating the thermal effects of therapeutic ultrasound.

It is very rare to diagnose a squamous cell carcinoma when the carcinoma cells are observed in various body fluids. The effusion cytology of squamous cell carcinoma has not been sufficiently studied till now. We examined 10 cases of body fluid cytologic specimen diagnosed as metastatic squamous ceil carcinoma, which were selected among 2,100 body fluid cytology cases collected from 1986 to 1991. The patients had been confirmed to have primary squamous ceil carcinomas. The backgrounds of cellular aspirates were necrotic in most and the cells appeared in clusters or individually. The cell clusters showed round and smooth margins, mimicking adenocarcinoma, but in flat sheets rather than three-dimensional bails. the individual cells were most frequently Graham's 3rd-type cells, found in all cases, which were described as 1.5 times large as the parabasal cells and having small cytoplasmic rims. Other malignant squamous cells were undifferentiated cells, polygonal cells, fiber cells, and tadpole cells with decreasing order of frequency. The recognition of various features of malignant squamous cells would be helpful for the diagnosis of squamous ceil carcinoma found in effusion cytology.

은하의 형태학적 진화 양상을 분석하기 위해 허블 울트라 딥 필드 (Hubble Ultra Deep Field; HUDF)에 있는 밝은 은하를 조사하였다. Coe et al. (2006)의 HUDF 카탈로그에 포함된 적색편이, 적경, 적위, 밝기 등급, 픽셀 면적 값을 사용하여 HUDF은하의 B필터 영상에서 밝은 순서로 1000개의 천체를 선택하고 이로부터 939개의 은하의 육안 분류를 수행하였다. Elmegreen et al. (2005)의 분류 방법에 기초하여 타원 은하, 렌즈 은하, 나선 은하, 올챙이 은하(Tadpole), 이중 은하(Double), 사슬 은하(Chain), 덩어리 은하(Clump cluster)와 그 외의 불규칙 은하로 분류하였다. 이렇게 분류된 은하의 분류형과 은하의 적색이동 사이의 관계를 분석하여 HUDF 은하의 적색편이에 따른 형태학적 진화 양상을 찾아낼 수 있었다. 올챙이 은하, 이중 은하, 사슬형 은하, 덩어리 은하 등 병합 단계에 있는 것으로 추정되는 은하들은 적색편이가 작을수록 그 수가 대체로 감소하는 경향을 보이는 반면, 나선은하들은 적색편이가 작을수록 그 수가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 적색편이와 은하 크기 사이의 관계를 보았을 때 낮은 적색 편이에서 나타나는 상대적으로 큰 은하들이 대부분 나선 은하였으며 이러한 결과는 은하 생성의 Bottom-Up 가설로 설명이 가능하다. 이와 함께 은하 형태의 정량적 분석을 위해 각 은하의 CAS와 함께 M20, Gini Coefficient(G)를 구하여 이들과 육안 분류와의 관계를 분석하여, CASGM20, 으로부터 은하의 분류 형을 찾는 방법을 모색하였다.

The tadpole larvae of most ascidians have two sensory pigment cells in their brain vesicle. The anterior otolith pigment cell is sensitive to gravity, whereas the posterior ocellus pigment cell responds to light. Besides these two sensory cells, the larvae also possess another type of sensory receptor cell: hydrostatic pressure receptor (Hpr) cells. The Hpr cells have been presumed to sense hydrostatic water pressure, although no functional analysis has been performed. In larvae of the ascidian Halocynthia reretzi, the development of the Hpr cells and their structure in the brain vesicle are poorly understood. To investigate the morphology and formation of the Hpr cells, we established a monoclonal antibody, Hpr-1, that specifically recognizes Hpr cells. The Hpr-1 antigens became detectable in the brain vesicle at the late tailbud stage. Each Hpr cell projected a small globular body, connected by a short stalk, into the lumen of the brain vesicle. The brain vesicle showed remarkable left-right asymmetry. Pigment cells were located on the right side in the lumen of the brain vesicle, whereas Hpr cells were present in the left side. After metamorphosis, the Hpr cells were observed near the rudimental siphons of the juvenile.

To investigate the regional distribution and relative frequency of the neurotensin-, pancreatic polypeptide(PP)- and gastrin/cholecystokinin(Gas/CCK)-immunoreactive cells in the gastrointestinal tract of the bullfrog(Rana catesbeiana) with developmental stages, group of bullfrogs subdivided into the tadpole with hindlegs, metamorphosed bullfrog with tail, 2 weeks after metamorphosed bullfrog and adult bullfrog, were stained by immunohistochemical methods (PAP methods). Neurotensin-immunoreactive cells were observed from the pylorus of the metamorphosed bullfrog with tail, but these cells were not detected after that periods. PP-immunoreactive cells were detected from the adult bullfrog in the pylorus, duodenum and ileum. These cells were most predominant in the pylorus. Gas/CCK-immunoreactive cells were observed from the adult bullfrog in the pylorus. According to these results, most of immunoreactive cells in the gastrointestinal tract of the bullfrog were appeared after the complete metamorphosed periods, in which the complete differentiation of structure of gastrointestinal tract were occurred, and variable changes of the regional distribution and relative frequency with developmental stages were observed.
