Purpose: Esophageal tolerance is needed to guide the safe administration of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). We evaluated comprehensive dose-volume parameters of acute esophageal toxicity in patients with spinal metastasis treated with SRS. Materials and Methods: From May 2008 to May 2011, 30 cases in 27 patients with spinal metastasis received single fraction SRS to targets neighboring esophagus. Endpoints evaluated include length (mm), volume (mL), maximal dose (Gy), and series of dose-volume thresholds from the dose-volume histogram (volume of the organ treated beyond a threshold dose). Results: The median time from the start of irradiation to development of esophageal toxicity was 2 weeks (range, 1 to 12 weeks). Six events of grade 1 esophageal toxicity occurred. No grade 2 or higher events were observed. $V_{15}$ of external surface of esophagus was found to predict acute esophageal toxicity revealed by multivariate analysis (odds radio = 1.272, p = 0.047). Conclusion: In patients with spinal metastasis who received SRS for palliation of symptoms, the threshold dose-volume parameter associated with acute esophageal toxicity was found to be $V_{15}$ of external surface of esophagus. Restrict $V_{15}$ to external surface of esophagus as low as possible might be safe and feasible in radiosurgery.

Potato (Solanum tubersosum L.) is susceptible to various environmental stresses such as frost, high temperature, and drought. Enhancement of potato drought tolerance can reduce yield loss under drought that has negative effect on potato tuber growth. Genetic engineering can be utilized to achieve this goal, but such approaches using endogenous potato genes have rarely been applied. Since unpredictable global weather changes cause more severe and frequent water limiting conditions, improvement of potato drought tolerance can minimize such adverse effects under drought and can impact on sustainable potato production. Genetic engineering can be utilized to improve potato drought tolerance, but such approaches using endogenous potato genes have rarely been applied. We were obtained AtbZIP28 gene transgenic potato plants. It is identified transcript levels at various stress conditions, polyethylene glycol (PEG), NaCl, abscisic ${\underline{acid}}$ (ABA). Also, For identification to regulate ER stress response genes in AtbZIP28 gene transgenic potato plant, we screened seven potato genes from RNA-seq analysis under TM treatment. Five and two genes were up- and down-regulated by TM, respectively. Their expression patterns were re-examined at stress agents known to elicit TM, DTT, DMSO and salt stress.

Grafting using a pumpkin (Cucurbita sp.) rootstock is an effective way to improve cucumber (Cucumis sativus) resistance to a combination of chilling and salinity stresses. We evaluated the tolerance of 15 pumpkin cultivars to chilling, salinity, and combined stresses at the germination and seedling stages. Selected plant characteristics, including germination rate, germination potential, germination index, plant height, stem thickness, fresh weight, and dry weight, were analyzed. We used the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean for cluster analyses to determine the stress tolerance levels of the pumpkin cultivars. The 15 cultivars were divided into three clusters: tolerant, moderately tolerant, and susceptible to stress treatments. The stress tolerances of all cultivars were variable in the germination and seedling stages, and most cultivars were not tolerant to individual treatments of chilling or salinity stresses at both stages. These results suggest that identifying suitable cultivars for use as rootstock during cucumber grafting should involve the evaluation of stress tolerance during different growth stages. Additionally, cultivars tolerant to chilling stress may not be tolerant to salinity stress; therefore, the choice of pumpkin rootstock should depend on where the grafted plant will be grown. Cultivars tolerant to a combination of chilling and salinity stresses may be useful as rootstock for cucumber grafting. Our findings may serve as reference material for choosing appropriate pumpkin rootstocks for cucumber grafting.

방향족 폴리아미드 역삼투 복합 박막에 트리알콕시알킬 실란 화합물을 안정적으로 정착시켜 내염소성이 향상된 복합막을 제조하는 방법에 관하여 조사하였다. 실란 화합물의 알킬 그룹의 탄소가 1개인 methyltriethoxysilane (METES)와 8개인 octyltriethoxysilane (OCTES) 표면 개질에 사용하였다. 긴 알킬 체인을 갖는 실란(OCTES)이 정착된 멤브레인의 경우, 일반 폴리아미드 역삼투막 또는 짧은 알킬 체인을 갖는 실란(METES)에 비해 개염소성이 크게 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 표면 분석을 통하여 OCTES 코팅막과 METES또는 상용막과의 내염소성 차이를 설명하고자 하였다. EDX 원소 분석을 통하여 실란 화합물 둘 다 폴리아미드상에 안정적으로 고정되었음을 볼 수 있었으나 표면 조도나 접촉각 분석에서는 긴 알킬 체인을 가진 OCTES가 혐수성에 큰 영향을 주고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study investigated the relation between seasonal variation of clothing weight and its resting metabolic rate to determine the relation between proper living temperature and cold/heat tolerance. Thirty six subjects(18 males and females twenties) were composed to obtain the clothing weight(Total clothing weight) and resting metabolic rate for a year and grouped four seasons : spring (Mar-May) Summer(Jun-Aug) Fall(Sep-Nov) and Winter(Dec-Feb). The data of males and females were respectively divided into three groups by cluster analysis with clothing weight. 1. The resting metabolic rate of male(41.1kcal/m2/hr) was higher than that of female(33.2kcal/m2/hr). It is suggested there is gender difference in the resting metabolic rate(p<.001) 2. The resting metabolic rate of male and female was the highest in Winter. It is suggested there is seasonal variation in the resting metabolic rate(p<.001) 3. It was found that there was relation between clothing weight and resting metabolic rate. The difference of resting metabolic rate between Summer and Winter which is profitable to adaptation to living temperature was significant in light clothing weight in male as well as in female. 4. In comfortable sensation most subjects responded that he/she felt 'comfortable' except Winter. However the heavy clothing weight group felt 'a little uncomfortable' throughout all seasons. l In thermal sensation most subjects responded that he/she felt 'neutral' And then the heavy clothing weight group responded warmer in summer and cooler in winter than light clothing weight group. From the results it was confirmed that male and female showed seasonal variations in clothing weight and resting metabolic rate. Also the resting metabolic rate of male and female was influenced by the clothing weight. In short seasonal variation of resting metabolic rate was larger in light clothing weight group than in heavy clothing weight group. Therefore light clothing weight group is advantgeous in living temperature to improve cold/heat tolerance and it also shows that living with the light clothing weight may enhance the degree of adaptation to change of living environment

Proline is known as an osmotrotectant to enhance tolerance against both salt and dehydration stresses. A P5CS ($\Delta^1$-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase) plays a major role in regulation of synthesis of proline. An overexpression of the mothbean P5CS gene in transgenic tobacco plant increased the levels of proline and osmotolerance. In an attempt to look for the possibility to use content of proline as well as a level of P5CS gene expression as molecular markers for salt tolerance, the amounts of proline and transcript levels of P5CS were measured as functions of either concentration of NaCl or length of treatment period among different species of zoysiagrass. Hybridzoysia showed the highest level of proline ($329\mu\textrm{g}$/g.f.w.) among five different species of zoysiagrass at 250 mM NaCl in 24 hours. The level of P5CS transcript was also the highest in the hybridzoysia at 250 mM NaCl in 24 hours. The transcriptions of P5CS gene were induced at the rates of 1.2, 1.2, 1.8, and 1.8, upon treatment of 250 mM NaCl in Z. japonica, Z. matrella, Z. sinica and hybridzoysia respectively. Based on a correlation between the level of P5CS transcript and the proline content among different species of zoysiagrass, a comparative structural analysis of the gene for P5CS from either Z. sinica or hybridzoysia may lead to an understanding of mechanism for salt tolerance shown differently among zoysiagrasses.

기본적인 성질 평가와 많은 실내실험을 통해 우리나라에서 부산되는 석탄재는 이제 실용화 단계에 있지만, 가장 문제 제기가 되고 있는 부분은 환경적 특성 검토이다. 본 연구에서는 석탄재 발생량의 대부분을 차지하고 있는, 역학적 특성이 열악한 fly ash.를 대상으로 우리나라 환경기 준에 의하여 폐기물 분류를 분석 확인하구 매립 및 대규모 토공재 등 건설재료로 처리 또는 사용하였을 시 오염물질 배출허용기준에 의한 문제점이 있는가를 검토하기 위하여 회분식 용출시험에 의하여 수소이온농도 및 오염물질 함유량을 조사.분석해 보았다. 그 결과 fly ash는 일반폐기물로 분류됨을 확인하였고, fly ash의 PH는 오염 물질 배출허용 기준치보다 알칼리성을 강하게 띠고 있어 문제가 되고 있으나 이는 산성화된 토양을 중성화하는 토량개량재로서 fly ash의 역할을 기대할 수 있으며, 그 외에는 오염물질 배출허용 기준치에 훨씬 못 미치는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 더구나 석탄재의 열악한 역학적 특성을 개량하기 위하여 사용되는 정도의 소량의 첨가제(시멘트 또는 석회 등)에 의하여 강도 및 내구성 증가, 투수성 억제는 물론 문제가 되는 수소이온농도가 오염물질 배출허용기준(pH 5.8~8.6) 이하로 낮아져, 석탄재의 건설재료로서의 활용에 있어 환경적인 문제의 여지는 없을 것으로 여겨진다.
