<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) has an anti-inflammatory action in acute pancreatitis (AP). However, its mechanism of action and natural compounds/drugs to induce HO-1 in pancreas are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the regulatory mechanisms of HO-1 during AP using desoxo-narchinol-A (DN), the natural compound inducing HO-1 in the pancreas. Female C57/BL6 Mice were intraperitoneally injected with supramaximal concentrations of cerulein (50 μg/kg) hourly for 6 h to induce AP. DMSO or DN was administered intraperitoneally, then mice were sacrificed 6 h after the final cerulein injection. Administration of DN increased pancreatic HO-1 expression through activation of activating protein-1, mediated by mitogen-activated protein kinases. Furthermore, DN treatment reduced the pancreatic weight-to-body weight ratio as well as production of digestive enzymes and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Inhibition of HO-1 by tin protoporphyrin IX abolished the protective effects of DN on pancreatic damage. Additionally, DN treatment inhibited neutrophil infiltration into the pancreas via regulation of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 (CXCL2) by HO-1. Our results suggest that DN is an effective inducer of HO-1 in the pancreas, and that HO-1 regulates neutrophil infiltration in AP via CXCL2 inhibition.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Desoxo-narchinol-A (DN) is a natural compound of HO-1 inducer in pancreas. </LI> <LI> Mechanism of DN-induced HO-1 is mediated by MAPK/Activator Protein-1/HO-1 signaling. </LI> <LI> DN-induced HO-1 blocks neutrophil infiltration into pancreas via inhibition of CXCL2. </LI> <LI> DN inhibits cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) and AP-associated lung injury. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

As medical technology progresses rapidly, there is a rise in the average age along with the Korean dietary lifestyle becoming more westernized, which leads to an increase in the number of vascular disease patients in Korea. Thus, we need to manage the medical information of a disease systematically in order to diagnose and treat constructively. However, since there has been no standardized method of man agement to date, a great deal of information could not be properly utilized nor studied. Therefore, the departments of Cardiology, Radiology and Neurology of Samsung Seoul Hospital recently got together to develop an information management system called the Vascular Data System. This program was developed to be run on win98 O/S, upper Pentium Ⅲ, and upper 128 MB Memory, and its source code is Dephi 4.0. It was configured for the user to set the configurations as well as do a variety of search and analysis. If this program were to be updated continuously, it may be used extensively as well as in various parts of clinical research activities.

Lee, Sang Choel,Han, Seung Hyeok,Li, Jin Ji,Lee, Sun Ha,Jung, Dong-Sub,Kwak, Seung-Jae,Kim, Seung Hye,Kim, Dong Ki,Yoo, Tae-Hyun,Kim, Jin Hyun,Chang, Se-Ho,Han, Dae Suk,Kang, Shin-Wook International Society of Nephrology 2009 Kidney international Vol.76 No.8

Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an anti-oxidant enzyme normally upregulated in response to oxidant injury. Here we determined the role of HO-1 in podocyte apoptosis in glomeruli of streptozotocin-treated rats and in immortalized mouse podocytes cultured in media containing normal or high glucose. HO-1 expression, its activity, the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 protein, and active caspase-3 fragments were all significantly higher in isolated glomeruli of diabetic rats and in high glucose–treated podocytes. These increases were inhibited by zinc protoporphyrin treatment of the rats or by HO-1 siRNA treatment of the podocytes in culture. The number of apoptotic cells was also significantly increased in the glomeruli of diabetic rats and in high glucose–treated podocytes. Inhibition of HO-1 accentuated the increase in apoptotic cells both in vivo and in vitro. Our findings suggest that HO-1 expression protects against podocyte apoptosis under diabetic conditions.

Objectives : To observe the effect of acupuncture treatment in chronic shoulder pain patients. Methods : 36 voluntary patients were randomly assigned to an acupuncture treatment group(E GrouP, n=18) and a control group(C GrouP, n=18). The E Group patients received acupuncture treatment on LI_(15), TE_(14), GB_(21) and Master Dong's acupuncture points, Shin-gwan and Gyun-joong, twice a week for four weeks. The C Group patients received no treatment. All patients in both groups were instructed to practise self exercise in their daily lives. Evaluations were made at baseline and after four weeks of study. The Constant Shoulder Assessment(CSA), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI) and the patient's subjective pain was measured by Visual Analogue Scale(VAS). The obtained data was analyzed. Results '. The E Group showed significant(p<0.05) improvement in CSA, SPADI and VAS after four weeks of treatment. The C Group showed significant(p<0.05) improvement in CSA, but the change of SPADI and VAS was insignificant(P>0.05). CSA and SPADI of E Group significantly(p<0.05) improved compared to the C GrouP, but the difference of VAS change in the two groups was insignificant(p>0.05). Conclusions : Four weeks of acupuncture treatment significantly improved CSA, SPADI and VAS. The improvement of CSA and SPADI was significant(p<0.05) compared to untreated patients.

신동희,권은선,문승식,김만영,정종연,허진호 한국전과정평가학회 2004 한국전과정평가학회지 Vol.5 No.1

본 연구의 목적은 일정한 논리적 절차를 거쳐서 객관적인 전과정평가의 우선순위를 선정하기 위한 일반적인 방법론의 개발이다. 우선 전과정평가 대상이 되는 제품(산업군)의 우선순위를 평가하기 위해서 제품의 환경성과 관련된 환경규제, 국내외 전과정평가 수행사례, 유해물질 등을 평가항목으로 설정하였다. 설정된 평가항목들에 대한 자료조사 및 분석을 통하여 세분화한 데이터베이스를 생성하였으며, 또한 학계 및 산업계의 의견을 반영하기 위해 전과정평가 전문가 및 산업계 관계자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사결과를 바탕으로 각각의 평가항목 및 세부평가항목의 가중치를 부여하였고, 각 평가항목별로 점수를 설정하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 방법론은 우선순위를 비교해야하는 제품(산업군)들이 각각의 평가항목에서 설정해놓은 해당 점수를 부여받게 된다. 부여받은 각 평가항목의 점수들을 모두 합산하면 평가대상이 되는 제품(산업군)에 대해 하나의 우선순위 평가 점수를 갖게 된다. 이와 같은 과정으로 방법론이 구축되었으며, 사례연구를 통하여 방법론의 타당성을 검증하였다. 이렇게 산출된 우선순위 평가점수를 평가하고자하는 제품(산업군)들과 비교하여 높은 점수를 갖는 제품(산업군)이 전과정평가를 먼저 실시하는 것이 바람직하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있다. The purpose of this study is to develop a general method to decide the priority of LCA application through a logical procedure. First of all, evaluation categories were developed to decide priority of subject products(industrial groups). The evaluation categories consist of environment regulations related to subject product, LCA case studies, hazardous substances, etc. The subdivided database was constructed through researching and analyzing information about the selected evaluation categories. In addition, a questionnaire was conducted to reflect the opinions from academic and industrial circles. Based on the result of the questionnaire, each evaluation category and sub-evaluation category were weighed differently, and certain points were assigned to them. According to the method developed in this study, comparing industrial groups or products for prioriting will have its total score that is a sum of points assigned to each evaluation category. This results that an industrial group or product having higher score than the others becomes the subject to apply LCA.
