The development of reliable methods to diagnose acute kidney injury is essential to allow the adoption of early therapeutic interventions and evaluate their effectiveness. Based on the fact that kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) expression levels in kidneys are markedly upregulated early after a damage event, here we developed a noninvasive KIM- 1-based molecular imaging technique to detect kidney injury. First, we took advantage of a phage-display platform to select small peptides demonstrating a specific high binding affinity to KIM-1. The promising candidate was conjugated with fluorescent probes, and its imaging potential was validated in vitro and in vivo. This peptide, with the sequence CNRRRA, not only showed a high imaging potential in vitro, allowing a strong detection of KIM-1 expressing cells by microscopy and flow cytometry but also generated a strong kidney-specific signal in live-imaging in vivo experiments in the context of a drug-induced kidney-injury mouse model. Our data overall suggest that the CNRRRA peptide is a promising probe to use in the context of in vivo imaging for the detection of KIM-1 overexpression in damaged kidneys.

Hyun Soo Kim, Jong Woon Cheon, Min Su Kim, Chang Kil Jung, Kyung Rok Kim, Jae Won Choi, Dong Woo Kang and Sun Young Kim1 Departments of Internal Medicine and Pathology1, DongKang Medical Center, Ulsan, Korea Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative disease and caused by Actinomycosis species, principally Actinomyces israelii, which are part of the normal inhabitant on the mucous membrane of the oropharynx, gastrointestinal tract, and urogenital tract. It usually affects cervicofacial, thoracic and abdominal tissue. Cervicofacial type has the highest percentage of occurrence with 50%. Actinomycosis frequently occurs following dental extraction, jaw surgery, chronic infection or poor oral hygiene. It may also be considered as an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients such as malignancy, human immunodeficiency virus infection, diabetes mellitus, steroid usage or alcoholism. But, actinomycosis rarely occurs in adults with normal immunity and rare in the esophagus. We report an unusual case of esophageal actinomycosis which was developed in a patient with normal immunity and improved by therapy with intravenous penicillin G followed oral amoxicillin, and we also reviewed the associated literature.

The bcl-2 proto-oncogene encodes a 26 kD protein that promotes cell survival by blocking apoptosis. The bax protein is a member of the bcl-2 familly, now known to form heterodimers with the bcl-2 protein. The ratio of bax to bcl-2 is be critical in determining the fate of the cell in response to stimuli that can induce apoptosis. Extract of Pulsatilla Koreana (SB-31) showed promising antitumor activity in vitro with Topo I inhibitory action. In the present study, the relationship between apoptosis and the apoptosis related proteins, bcl-2 and bax were investigated in human leukemic cell lines HL-60, U-937 and CEM-CM3. All anticancer drugs(adriamycin, etoposide, camptothecin, SB-31) induced extensive apoptosis in HL-60, U-937 cells and CEM-CM3 cells. The expression of bcl-2 and bax protein were determined in cell lines by western blotting before and after incubation with anticancer drugs at different time points. 1) In HL-60 or U-937 cell lines, down regulation of bcl-2 and up-regulation of bax were found after incubation with ADR, VP-16 or camptothecin. 2) In HL-60 or U-937 cell lines, no significant change in bcl-2 or bax protein expression resulted after incubation with SB-31. 3) In CEM-CM3 cells, virtually no change was noted in bcl-2/bax expression after incubation with ADR, VP-16, camptothecin or SB-31. It is suggested that different leukemic cell lines use different pathways of apoptosis activation and a given cell may utilize different pathways of apoptosis activation in response to different cytotoxic agents.

There are need to develop of merchandise of value added fresh ginseng because of high consciousness level of consumer and enlarge of markets for high quality products. The fresh ginseng after harvest was distributed to farmer partually but in general, it was to market by consigner or wholsaler directly after harvest. There were a high difference on storage period of fresh ginseng in different harvesting seasons. The reduction of value of commodities of fresh ginseng for storage period was caused by decomposition and tender of tissue. The storage temperature was under the freezing point and the packing method was sealing tightly by plastic film. As the quality of fresh ginseng was defined by naked eye, it was difficult to sort the quality of ginseng directly harvest.

The effects of temperature, stress ratio and frequency on the fatigue crack propagation have been investigated using STS 410 Stainless Steel. The temperatures employed were room temperature(27℃), 300℃ and 500℃. The stress ratios were 0.1 and 0.3 and the frequencies were 20 and 30Hz. Some of the conclusions obtained are as follows. (1) As the temperature increased, da/dN became greater, however, with the greater stress ratio, this tendency became smaller. (2) The change of frequency to a higher value at a given temperature had little effect on da/ dN. (3) The increase of stress ratio increased da/ dN, however, this effect became smaller at higher temperature.

빛과 초식에 의한 부착조류의 생체량 변화에 대한 영향을 평가하기 위하여 자연기질과 인공기질(유약을 칠하지 않은 타일: 3.7×9.5×2cm)을 이용하여 부분적으로 음지화된 2차 산지하천에서 실험하였다. Open canopy(상대적 빛 투과율: 20∼50%, chl. a: 9.5±3.0㎎/㎡, n=25)에서는 closed canopy(<6% 상대적 빛 투과율, 3.2±0.9㎎/㎡, n=17)보다 높은 부착조류 생체량을 유지하였다. 하천 주변식생의 잎 성숙과 잦은 강우에 의해서 여름의 부착조류 생체량은 봄과 겨울에 비하여 낮았다. 봄에 인공기질에 부착조류가 부착하는 속도는 겨울보다 빨랐으며 겨울에는 자연기질 수준(8∼9㎎/㎡)에 이르기 까지 최소 5∼6주 정도 소요되었다. 초식자인 다슬기는 출입을 제한한 실험구에서는 출입이 허용된 대조구보다 약간 높은 생체량(AFDW, chl. a)을 보였다. 결론적으로 빛이 부착조류 생체량에 증가에 미치는 영향은 초식 보다는 더 큰 것으로 사료된다. Effects of light and grazing on the biomass development of periphyton were evaluated using natural and artificial substrata (unglazed tile: 3.7×9.5×2cm) in a partially shaded 2nd order mountain stream. In open canopy (relative light input 20∼50%), a relatively high biomass (chl. a: 9.5±3.0㎎/㎡, n=25) was maintained than that of closed canopy (<6% of light input, 3.2±0.9㎎/㎡, n=17). Due to shading and frequent rainfalls, biomass was lower during the summer than in the spring and winter. During the spring, colonization of periphyton on artificial substrata occurred faster than in winter and it took a minimum of 5∼6 weeks to reach the biomass of natural substrata (8∼9㎎/㎡). When snails were allowed to freely enter the chamber (mean density: 114 ind./㎡) with artificial substrata, biomass accumulation (chl. a, AFDW) was low compared to the snail excluded enclosure (50∼90% of ungrazed substrata). It was concluded that the light input on periphyton biomass in a partially shaded stream played a more important role than grazing.

To establish the way of processing of Gae-Woo jeot which used abalone intestine that has not been systematically used compare to its characteristic taste and fame as main ingredient and to develop as a local tourist good, the change of constituents the quality of salted fish products suring Gae-Woo jeot fermentation were examined. The results are as follows. 1. In the organoleptic test, Gae-Woo jeot which fermented through 65 days were dominant and the group of 105 salkt concentration were better than that of 20%. It was the best of 10% salted products to add small abalone. Both law salted(10%) and high salted (20%) Gae-Woo jeot were similar in general constityents, nutrients and texture. 2. Compositions of highly unsaturated acid were farely high to 45.6% and 46.1% in small abalone added froup and top sheel added group respectively. during 3 months fermentation low decreasing rate of 3~4% was shown. EPA(eicosapentaenoic acid) was approximately 7~8% and DHA(docosahexaenoic acid) was extremely low to be less than 0.3%. 3. In the changes General composition and pH, pH was within range of 4~5.5, 9~12% in protein, 3~5% in total sugar, 0.5~1% in lipid and approximately 1% in ash. 4. Gae-Woo jeot can be made with 10% low salting method, and 10% group gets all the better for taste, small abalone adding is recommended. 5. When low salt fermented fish of 10% is processed, it is highly recommended to put sorbitol, ethyl alcohol, lactic acid or other humectant for better taste and longer storage and good quality food additives must be developed for tourist and presently applied mil ordering transportation must be sought.

Background : Cord blood(CB), which has no HLA restriction, is an alternative to bone marrow for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The use of cord blood, however, is limited by the number of progenitor/stem cells necessary to reconstitute the older child or adult. Therefore, ex vivo expansion of CB could have tremendous impact on diverse clinical settings. We studied the ex vivo expansion of isolated population of CD34_(+) cells from cryopreserved CB cells. Methods : CD34 cells were isolated from cryopreserved CB mononuclear cells. Purified cells were cultured with various combinations of hematopoietic growth factors including erythropoietin(EPO), stem cell factor(SCF), granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF), gra-nulocyte, macrophage-colony-stimulating factor(GM-CSF), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), 1L-3, and IL-6. After 7, 10 or 14 days of culture, the fold increases of colony-forming unit- granu-locyte, macrophage(CFU-GM), burst-forming unit-erythroid(BFU-E), colony-forming unit-mix (CFU-Mix), and high proliferative potential colony-forming cell(HPP-CFC) were evaluated. Results : Ten-day culture with the combination of EPO, SCF, G-CSF, IL-1β, and IL-3 resulted in a median of 60-fold increase of CFU-GM, which was greater than those with the combinations of less than 5 growth factors. The addition of IL-6 or GM-CSF to this combination did not enhance CFU-GM expansion. Ten-day culture was significantly superior to 7-day culture for CFU-GM expansion. Prolongation of culture to 14 days, however, revealed decreased expansion of CFU-GM compared to 10 days. BFU-E and CFU-Mix were expanded to 2~5 folds in 7-day culture with the combination of EPO, SCF, and G-CSF. Further expansion was not achieved in 10-day culture and colonies disappeared in 14-day culture. HPP-CFC was expanded to a median of 7.5 folds in 7-day culture with the combination of EPO, SCF, G-CSF, IL-1β, IL-3, and IL-6. Neither 10-day or 14 day-culture enhanced expansion of HPP-CFU. Conclusion : Cryopreserved cord blood cells maintain ex vivo expansion potential. In our system, 10-day culture with the combination consisting of EPO, SCF, G-CSF, IL-1β, and IL-3 seems to be adequate for hematopoietic progenitor/stem cell expansion from cryopreserved cord blood cells.

비혈연간 동종골수이식은 혈연간 동종골수이식이 불가능한 환자에서 기존의 면역역제요법으로 효과가 없었던 경우나 재발한 경우에 적응증이 될수 있다. 이식 거부와 이식편대숙주병의 발생이 골수 이식의 성공률을 감소시키므로, 보다 강력한 conditioning regimen의 사용과 T cell이 제거된 골수를 사용하는 것이 필요하다. 기존의 high dose corticosteroid나 cyclosporine에 대하여 불응성인 이식편대숙주병의 치료를 위해서 ATG와 Mycophenolate mofetil (Cellcept®) 의 사용이나 Tacrolimus, Methotrexate와 같은 다른 면역억제제치료를 고려해 볼 수 있다. It is known that allogenic bone marrow transplantation is the most effective treatment for aplastic anemia. However, this treatment is only applicable to a minority of patients because the proportion of patients who have HLA-matched siblings about 25% to 30% of all the aplastic anemia patients. In the case of the absence of HLA-matched donor, unrelated allogenic bone marrow transplantation is considered. However, (because of severe acute and chronic GVHD and graft failure) the success rate of this approach is only 20~30%. Recently, it was reported that increased immunosuppressive condition combined with T cell depletion of the marrow graft would result in greater success. There was no case of successfully treated aplastic anemia patient by unrelated allogenic bone marrow transplantation in Korea. Here, we report a case of severe aplastic anemia successfully treated with unrelated allogenic bone marrow transplantation.
