Prostaglandin A₂ (PGA₂)는 사람 골육종 세포인 U2OS 세포주에서 apoptosis와 heme oxygenase (HO)-1의 발현을 함께 유도하였다. PGA₂에 의한 apoptosis는 HO-1의 과도한 발현이나 HO-1에 대한 small interfering RNA에 의한 발현저하에 의하여 변동되지 않았으나 H₂O₂에 의한 세포사망은 HO-1의 발현 수준에 반비례하여 변동되었다. 또한 thiol antioxidant인 N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC)은 PGA₂에 의한 세포사망과 HO-1의 발현 증가를 모두 차단하였지만, non-thiol antioxidant인 butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA)과 ascorbic acid는 세포사망과 HO-1의 발현 유도를 차단하지 않았다. 이와 같은 결과들은 PGA₂는 산화성 손상에 의해서가 아니라 PGA₂의 thiol-reactivity에 의하여 apoptosis와 HO-1의 발현을 유도하며, HO-1의 발현은 PGA₂에 의한 apoptosis와는 독립적인 현상이거나 기능적으로 apoptosis 유도의 하부에 위치하고 apoptosis의 진행에는 기여하지 않을 것이라는 것을 시사해 준다. Prostaglandin A₂ (PGA₂), one of cyclopentenone PGs, induced both apoptosis and heme oxygenase (HO)-1 expression in U2OS cells. PGA₂-induced apoptosis was not perturbed by either over-expression or knock-down of HO-1, whereas H₂O₂-induced cell death was inversely modulated by the expression level of HO-1. In addition, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a thiol antioxidant, blocked both apoptosis and HO-1 expression induced by PGA₂. But, non-thiol antioxidants like butylated hydorxyanisole (BHA) and ascorbic acid did not block either apoptosis or HO-1-induction. Taken together, these results suggest that PGA₂ induces both apoptosis and HO-1 expression, which are critically related to the thiol-reactivity of PGA₂, but not oxidative stress, and HO-1 expression may be independent or functionally located downstream of apoptosis by PGA₂ without contribution to apoptosis progression.

김주필(Joo Pil Kim),예성훈(Seong Hun Ye),이준기(Jun Gi Lee),이준호(Jun Ho Lee) 한국거미연구소 2015 한국거미 Vol.31 No.1

한국산 거미 목록을 최근 분류체계와 새롭게 추가된 분류군을 총망라하여 재정리하였다. 그 결과, 한국산 거미류의 수는 총 48과 281속 795종으로 조사되었으며, 이전 김과 김(2010)의 발표보다 2과 16속 69종이 많았다. 이전의 김과 김(2010)의 목록에서 이용된 분류체계와 비교해 크게 변동된 사항으로는 기존의 코리나거미과(Family Corinnidae)에 속하는 3개 속(Genus Cetonana 괴물거미속(개칭), Genus Paratrachelas 어리괭이거미속, Genus Trachelas 괭이거미속)과 2개 속(Genus Orthobula 십자삼지거미속, Genus Phrurolithus 도사거미속)이 각각 괭이거미과(Family Trachelidae)(신칭)와 도사거미과 (Family Phrurolithidae)(신칭)로 분리, 신설되었으며(Ramírez, 2014), 밭고랑거미과(Family Liocranidae)의 족제비거미속(Genus Itatsina)이 미투기거미과(Family Miturgidae)의 1속(Genus Prochora)에 하위 동종이명(synonymy)으로 편입됨(Bosselaers & Jocqué, 2013)에 따라 Prochora 속의 국명이 족제비거미속으로 개칭되었다. 또한 오소리거미과(Family Zoridae)가 미투기거미과(Family Miturgidae)에 하위 동종이명으로 편입되었으며(Ramírez, 2014), 기존에 미투기거미과에 속해 있던 1속(Genus Cheiracanthium 어리염낭거미속)이 미투기거미과로부터 분리, 신설된 장다리염낭거미과(Family Eutichuridae)(신칭)로 분류되었다(Ramírez, 2014). 그 밖에 속, 종의 단위에서 분류군 신설, 동종이명, 오동정 등의 분류 체계 변동 사항이 있었으며, 이를 본 목록에서 확인할 수 있다. 더불어 근래에 추가된 2종의 무자격명(Nomen nudum) 처리된 종과, 국립공원 생물종 목록집(2012)에 기재되었으나 논문으로 정식 발표되지 않은 미기록종 22종을 별도로 기술하였다. 한국산 거미류는 접시거미과(101종), 꼬마거미과(84종), 왕거미과(79종), 깡충거미과(73종), 그리고 늑대거미과(57종) 이하 순으로 종수가 많았으며, 위의 5과가 전체 종수의 약 50%(394종)을 차지하였다. 전체 795종 중 한국산 고유종은 173종(21.8%)이었고, 일본산 거미류와 512종(64.4%), 중국산과 497종(62.5%), 러시아산과 360종(45.3%), 대만산과 103종(13.1%) 동일종이었다. 또한, 구북구산(Palearctic region)이 80종(10%), 전북구산(Holarctic region)이 37종(4.7%), 그리고 세계공통종(Cosmopolitan species)이 13종(1.6%)으로 분석되었다. A revised new-version of the check list of Korean spiders, including recent systematic systems and new taxa, is presented in this paper. According to additional references in the last 5 years, a total of 795 species of 281 genera belonging to 48 families were checked in Korean spider fauna, and there are 69 species of 16 genera belonging to 2 families more than the previous check list(Kim & Kim, 2010). Typical examples of some changes in systematic systems of Korean spiders compared with the previous check list(Kim & Kim, 2010) are as follows : Two families, the family Trachelidae and the family Phrurolithidae, previously in the family Corinnidae are raised to family status(by Ramírez, 2014). In Korea, the family Trachelidae includes 3 genera(Gen. Cetonana, Gen. Paratrachelas, Gen. Trachelas) and the family Phrurolithidae includes 2 genera(Gen. Orthobula, Gen. Phrurolithus); The family Eutichuridae is raised to family status, which was previously in the family Miturgidae(by Ramírez, 2014). There is one genus(Gen. Cheiracanthium) in the family Eutichuridae in Korea; The family Zoridae is included as a junior synonym of the family Miturgidae(by Ramírez, 2014); The genus Itatsina is included as a junior synonym of the genus Prochora in the family Miturgidae(Bosselaers & Jocqué, 2013). One Pisaurid species(Dolomedes jirisanensis) and a Sparassid genus(Gen. Joopilia, Joopilia joopilis) are nomina nuda. Additionally, There are 22 unrecorded species, which was found by Korean National Park Research Institute(2012) but was not described as papers, check list of them is presented separately from the check list of Korean spiders in this paper. Linyphiidae(101 sp.), Theridiidae(84 sp.), Araneidae(79 sp.), Salticidae(73 sp.), and Lycosidae(57 sp.) spiders are the most in the Korean spider fauna, and species in that 5 families formed about 50%(394 sp.) of the whole Korean spiders. In zoogeographical distribution, Korean spider fauna was found containing 80 Pa, 37 Holarctic, 13 Co, and 173 Korean endemic species. And comparison with faunas of neighboring countries, 512 species of Korean spiders also live in Japan(64.4%), 497 species live in C(62.5%), 360 species live in Russia(45.3%) and 103 species live in Taiwan(13.1%).

Purpose: This study aimed to quantitatively measure the movement of tumors in real-time and evaluate the treatment accuracy, during the treatment of a liver tumor patient, who underwent radiosurgery with a Synchrony Respiratory motion tracking system of a robot CyberKnife. Materials and Methods: The study subjects included 24 liver tumor patients who underwent CyberKnife treatment, which included 64 times of treatment with the Synchrony Respiratory motion tracking system (SynchronyTM). The treatment involved inserting 4 to 6 acupuncture needles into the vicinity of the liver tumor in all the patients using ultrasonography as a guide. A treatment plan was set up using the CT images for treatment planning uses. The position of the acupuncture needle was identified for every treatment time by Digitally Reconstructed Radiography (DRR) prepared at the time of treatment planning and X-ray images photographed in real-time. Subsequent results were stored through a Motion Tracking System (MTS) using the Mtsmain.log treatment file. In this way, movement of the tumor was measured. Besides, the accuracy of radiosurgery using CyberKnife was evaluated by the correlation errors between the real-time positions of the acupuncture needles and the predicted coordinates. Results: The maximum and the average translational movement of the liver tumor were measured 23.5 mm and 13.9±5.5 mm, respectively from the superior to the inferior direction, 3.9 mm and 1.9±0.9 mm, respectively from left to right, and 8.3 mm and 4.9±1.9 mm, respectively from the anterior to the posterior direction. The maximum and the average rotational movement of the liver tumor were measured to be 3.3o and 2.6±1.3o, respectively for X (Left-Right) axis rotation, 4.8o and 2.3±1.0o, respectively for Y (Cranio-Caudal) axis rotation, 3.9o and 2.8±1.1o, respectively for Z (Anterior-Posterior) axis rotation. In addition, the average correlation error, which represents the treatment’s accuracy was 1.1±0.7 mm. Conclusion: In this study real-time movement of a liver tumor during the radiosurgery could be verified quantitatively and the accuracy of the radiosurgery with the Synchrony Respiratory motion tracking system of robot could be evaluated. On this basis, the decision of treatment volume in radiosurgery or conventional radiotherapy and useful information on the movement of liver tumor are supposed to be provided.

김지인 ( Jee In Kim ),장한수 ( Han Su Jang ),김종식 ( Jong Sik Kim ),손호용 ( Ho Yong Sohn ) 한국미생물생명공학회 2009 한국미생물·생명공학회지 Vol.37 No.2

Yam (Dioscorea batatas Decne) has been recognized as healthy food due to its various biological activities, such as anti-obesity, anti-constipation, anti-proliferation, anti-mutagenic activity, and decrease of blood glucose and cholesterol level. In this study, the methanol extract and its organic solvent fractions were prepared from dried Dioscorea batatas Decne, and their antimicrobial, antithrombin, and antioxidant activity were evaluated, respectively. The 66.7% of methanol extract was fractioned into water residue, and most of total-polyphenol/total-flavonoids were found in ethylacetate fraction. This ethylacetate fraction at 500 μg/disc concentration showed strong antibacterial activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, except Staphylococcus aureus. Antifungal activity was not observed in methanol extract and its fractions. But, strong antithrombin activity was found in methanol extract. At 4.8 mg/mL concentration, thrombin time was 99.5 sec, which is coincides with 30% activity of aspirin, a commercial available antithrombosis agent. The ethylacetate fraction showed strong DPPH scavenging activity (IC50 of 80.5 μg/mL), compared to vitamin C (IC50 of 15.2 μg/mL). Also, the ethylacetate fraction showed strong SOD-like activity and reducing power, which are coincide with 43% of vitamin C and 82.7% of butylated hydroxytoluene activity, respectively.

Background: The vascularity of the peri-implant tissue is a very important parameter in establishment and maintenance of a healthy tissue after dental implant insertion. Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the vascularity of the peri-implant mucosa between flap and flapless implant surgeries by using a canine mandible model. Study Design: In six mongrel dogs, bilateral, edentulated, flat alveolar ridges were created in the mandible. After 3 months of healing, two implants were placed in each side by either the flap or flapless procedures. After another healing period of 3 months, biopsies were obtained, prepared for light microscopy and exposed to morphometric measurements. Results: The supracrestal connective tissue lateral to the implant was found to be more richly vascularized in the flapless group than in the flap group. Conclusion: These results suggest that the flapless procedure may have an effect on increasing the vascularity of the peri-implant mucosa.

Ti and Ti alloys are important materials for medical and dental applications. The effect of equal channel angular process(ECAP) and addition of Fe in Ti were studied with optical microstructure and corrosion behavior. Fine grains in Ti was obtained after ECAP. Corrosion behavior of commercial pure(CP)-Ti and Ti alloys was studied by open circuit test and polarization curve test(PCT) at $36.5^{\circ}C$ with SBF in biological environment. The corrosion behavior of ECAP-Ti was similar to that of CP-Ti in PCT, but Ti-Fe alloys were observed to become more corrosive with increasing Fe content.
