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 purpose of this study was to improve bone formation and shorten the period involved in distraction osteogenesis using sodium fluoride (NaF). This has been used in managing osteoporosis for several decades. This study was carried out on 40 New Zealand white rabbits. Twenty animals were used for a control group (no medication) and 20 for the experimental group. NaF 1 mg/kg/day was administered to each experimental animal via drinking water beginning 4 weeks prior to surgery and continued until sacrifice for examination. A distraction device was applied to the left mandible along a plane perpendicular to the direction of osteotomy. After a 5-day latent period, the mandibles were lengthened at 1 mm per 24 hours for 10 days. Five rabbits from each group were sacrificed on the 1st day, 2nd week, 4th week and 8th week of the consolidation period. After lengthening, all the rabbits developed a severe cross-bite. By the 4th week, cortical continuity was seen. Bone densities at the site of bony lengthening were measured by quantitative computer tomography (QCT) and dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The results were as follows: the measurements of the experimental group were significantly higher than of the control group by the 1st day of the consolidation period (p<0.05) and insignificantly higher after the 2nd week. Histologically, in the experimental group, there were more osteoblasts, increased and thickened trabeculae and more mature lamellar bones than in the control group. This study showed that osteogenesis of the experimental group was significantly higher during and immediately after distraction. Our study suggested that the use of NaF could improve bone formation and decrease the period of distraction osteogenesis if a safe dose and method of fluoride administration can be determined for growing humans.

본 연구에서는 PCR을 이용하여 국내시장에 유통중인 원료콩과 가공식품에 epsps 또는 pat 유전자가 삽입된 유전자재조합 콩(GMS)의 사용여부를 모니터링하였다. 이러한 GMS의 검출을 위해 3쌍의 primer set을 제작하였고, 각각의 primer들은 GMS에 삽입된 유전자와 특이적으로 반응하여 PCR산물을 생성하였다. 2001년 표시제가 시행되기 이전에 생산된 총 가공식품과 이후의 제품에 대해 각각 모니터링을 수행하였으며, 표시제 이전에 생산된 제품의 경우 대부분의 미국산 원료에서 esps가 삽입된 GMS가 검출되었으나, 표시제 이후에는 검출되지 않았다. A method using PCR was developed for the monitoring of genetically modified soybean (GMS) and GMS derived foods utilized in the market. We designed 3 pairs of specific oligonucleotide primers based on epsps and pat inserted in GMS and ferritin gene as internal standards. Template DNAs isolated from soybean and processed foods were used for multiplex PCR with 3 primer sets. PCR, used with specific primer sets for GMS detection, showed the amplified DNA fragments with GMS template DNA. In this study, GMS containing epsps was detected from soy processed foods manufactured before GM food labeling system, however, GMS containing epsps or pat was not detected from soy processed foods manufactured after GM food labeling system.

Background: Micafungin, a potent inhibitor of 1,3-β-D-glucan synthase, is a novel antifungal agent of the echinocandin class. In vitro study showed that micafungin was effective against Aspergillus species as well as Candida species, but clinical data on the prophylactic efficacy against invasive fungal infections (IFIs) other than candidiasis are still lacking. Materials and Methods: We identified 60 consecutive adult hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients who received at least 3 doses of micafungin during neutropenic period. Micafungin was started as an alternative in patients who were intolerant or had adverse events (AEs) to primary prophylactic antifungal agents. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records and analyzed the efficacy and safety of micafungin for prophylaxis against IFIs. Results: The patients either had autologous (n=9) or allogeneic (n=51: 1 syngeneic, 24 sibling, 26 unrelated donor) HSCT. Itraconazole oral solution (n=58) was the most frequently used first line antifungal agent for prophylaxis and was administered for median 11 days. The most frequent cause of switch to micafungin was vomiting (n=42). The duration of neutropenia and micafungin administration was median 13 and 12 days, respectively. A successful outcome was achieved in 45 (75%) patients. Empirical antifungal therapy was initiated in 13 (22%) patients. There were 2 cases (3.3%) of breakthrough fungal infections which comprised a probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and a possible invasive fungal sinusitis. There was no case of invasive candidiasis. A total of 53 (88%) patients experienced at least one AE regardless of causality during micafungin administration. The most frequent AEs were hypokalemia, vomiting, diarrhea, and elevated serum aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase. Among the aforementioned AEs, only 1 case of diarrhea could be classified as a probable relation with micafungin when causality was assessed. There was no AEs that caused discontinuation of micafungin. Conclusions: Micafungin seems to be a safe and effective agent for prophylaxis of IFIs including aspergillosis as well as candidiasis in HSCT recipients. However, further large, prospective, and randomized comparative studies are warranted for aspergillosis.

Background The olive founder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is a saltwater fsh, which is valuable to the economy. The olive founder strives to adapt to environmental stressors through physiological, biochemical, and transcriptional responses. The rise in water temperature threatens the growth, development, reproduction, and survival of olive founder. Each organ in the olive founder can diferentially respond to heat stress. Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate organ-specifc transcriptional changes in olive founder tissues during heat stress. Methods In this study, transcriptome dynamics of the gill, liver, and muscle of olive founder to acute or chronic heat stress were investigated. Results Principal component analysis plotting revealed that the transcriptome of each organ is quite separated. K-means clustering, gene ontology, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis showed the diferential transcriptome responses of each organ to heat stress. Heat stress commonly afects the pathways involved in the correct protein folding, DNA repair, and cell cycle. Conclusion Our results may provide a valuable molecular basis of heat acclimation in fshes.

김진우,최영길,김영설,김광원,김선우,양인명,윤현구,우정택 대한내과학회 1986 대한내과학회지 Vol.31 No.5

Our study was desinged to observe the ACTH response to ovine CRF in healthy men and to observe the effect of bromocriptine or cyproheptine on ACTH and cortisol response induced by ovine CRF in healthy men. We have hypothesis that if hromocriptine or cyproheptatine inhibits the secretion of ACTH induced by ovine CRF, they decrease the secretion of ACTH in the pituitary level. The result were followings: 1) Plasma ACTH reached a peak of 1.5 and 1.6 times the basal level in response to ovine CRF at 10 min, and 30 min, respectively and decreased to the basal level at 90 min. 2) Cyproheptadine or bromocriptine did not inhibit the response of ACTH to ovine CRF. 3) We suggest that cyproheptadine or bromocriptine does not inhibit the ACTH secretion in the normal pituitary gland.

In order to establish the optimum process parameters and diamond saw blade composition for machining natural stone, the chip formation process and the wear process must be understood. Diamond saw blade is one of the most effective, versatile, and extensively used methods of processing rock and other hard materials, such as granite, marble, concrete and asphalt. For many years, it has been known that chip thickness is one of the most significant in the understanding of the sawing process, and other variables such as force and power have been correlated with it. In this study, mathematical relations of a material chipped by a single grit of the saw blade will be undertaken. The material chipping geometries have been mathematically defined and derived as maximum chip thickness.

산지하천에서 빛과 초식에 의한 부착조류의 생체량변화

김현우,김현주,김진수,윤해순,주기재 東亞大學校附設基礎科學硏究所 1998 基礎科學硏究論文集 Vol.15 No.1

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.

Kim, K.J., Ahn, N.Y., Cheon, W.K., Park, J.S., Hong, C.B., Shin, Y.J., Kim. S.H., Kim, T.H., Lee, J.E. Relationship between Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene and body composition in middle-aged women. Exercise Science, 13(2): 233-240, 2004. Previous studies have been found for the polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene being involved in human obesity, We examined relationship between the Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene and body composition. Subjects were consisted of obese group (N=94) and normal weight group (N=95) in middle-aged women. Body weight, %fat, BMI, skinfold thickness, body circumferences, and WHR we measured for the analysis of the detailed physique. Leptin receptor polymorphism was detected by PCR-RELP assays. The Gln223Arg polymorphism in the leptin receptor gene was no significant difference between obese and normal weight group, and heterozygous for the leptin receptor gene showed the highest values in both groups. The allele frequency was no significant difference between obese and normal weieht group. Body weight and BMI showed a significant (p<0.05) difference between mutant homozygous and heterozygous of the Gln223Arg in the leptin receptor gene in both groups. Hip and high circumferences showed a significant (p<0.05) difference between mutant homozygous and heterozygous of Gln223Arg in the leptin receptor gene in both groups. Although it was no significance, skinfold thickness of mutant homozygous group showed a high values than mutant heterozygous group in obese group. Therefore the Gln223Arg polymorphism of the leptin gene receptor not appeared to be a risk factor for obesity in middle-aged Korean women, but we suggest that the Gln223Arg polymorphism of the leptin gene receptor affect to the body composition.
