CTLA-4, a T cell activation antigen and a homologue of CD28, was originally identified as a gene by a series of reverse genetic approaches. While CD28 molecule has been characterized well as a stimulator of T-cell function via enhanced lymphokines production and stablilization of those mRNA, most of the functions of CTLA-4 remain unknown. It has been widely accepted that CTLA-4 functions as an immune suppressor which is down-regualting the function of CD28. We previously showed that 34 KD form of this antigen mainly expressed CD8+ subset, a cytotoxic or suppressor, of activated peripheral blood lymphocyte. Based on our previous finding this study was conducted to further characterize immunological function of CTLA-4 especially in terms of involvement of this molecule in T-cell effector function mediating target cell cytotoxicity. 4 human T cell clones with different target cytotoxicities were employed in this study. NBL46 (CD4+) and NBL77 (CD8+) were cytotoxic and NBL32 (CD4+) and NBL58 (CD 8+) were non-cytotoxic to target LBF cell in target cell chromium release assay. And in Western blot assay 34 kD antigen was detected in NBL46 (CD4+) and NBL77 (CD8+) clones but not in NBL32 (CD4+) and NBL58 (CD8+) clones. It was summarized that expression of the CTLA-4 antigen was associated with cytotoxicity but not with subset phenotypes of T cells. In conclusion CD8+ T subset of PHA-stimulated PBL was major and only CTLA-4 producer and this molecule was induced during mid to late stage of T cell activation. The cytotoxicity of T cell clones to its target cell was directly correlated with its CTLA-4 production and vice versa. And it was highly suggested that primary function of CTLA-4 may involved in T cell effector function which mediates target cell killing.

Locoregional recurrence is the most common type of recurrence in surgical operation of gastric adenocarcinoma, and peritoneal dissemination is one of the most difficult problems in advanced gastric adenocarcinoma treatment. Because the peritoneal cavity is the most common site of the first recurrence after gastric cancer resection, intraperitoneal chemotherpy seems a logical choice for cancer chemotherapy. The Mitomycin C(MMC) adsorbed by the activated charcoal particles(CH) is relatively released when the drug concentration surrounding the carbon particles becomes low in the peritoneum of the peritoneal cavity. For the intraperitoneal chemotherapy on the advanced gastric adenocarcnoma, mitomycin C adsorbed on activated carbon particles was administered in the peritoneal cavity just before abdominal wall closure. The closed drainage tubes were inserted in the peritoneal cavity and clamped for tuo hours after completion of operation. MMC concentrations were serially measured in peritoneal fluid, plasma and urine at 2hour, 48 hour, 72 hour and 168 hour following its administration in order to study the efficacy of the MMC-CH as a drug delivery system. There were minimal toxicities in born marrow, liver, and gastrointestinal system after intraperitoneal MMC-CH administration. The data of this study suggested that MMC-CH may have a somewhat more beneficial effect than surgery alone when administered in optimal dose and schedules, but the MMC concentration of the peritoneal fluid was not sufficient to eradicate remnant cancer cells, and effective duration of maintenance was only below 24 hours in the peritoneal fluid and plasma.

This paper presents an approach to obtain a reduced neuro-fuzzy model for a plan. To decide which rules we may eliminate dependancy in rough set theory is used. The rapid convergence of the number of the redundant rules must be accomplished by our method. We don't need to cluster the input space from the raw data and furthermore don't worry about ε-completeness, which we have to consider when clustering the initial input space. However many rules it has, neuro-fuzzy model can be reduced rapidly for dependency seek for every rule worthless. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of using dependency to measure the contribution of any rule to the model.

국균증은 토양, 유기체 그리고 모든 형태의 유기물 잔사에 광범위하게 존재하는 국균 (Aspergillus) 속에 의하여 발병한다.이 균의 포자는 공기 중에서 전염될 수 있으므로 가장 흔한 감염 진균 중 하나이다.부비동에 발생한 국균증은 초기 임상 증상이 만성 부비동염과 유사하며, 방사선 사진 등을 이용한 검사상도 일반 세균성 감염과 구별하기가 매우 어렵다.대개는 병리조직학적 검사로 국균을 확인해서 확진을 내리게된다.국균증의 치료는 외과적으로 상악동내의 병소를 완전히 제거하고 비강에로 충분한 공기를 통기시키는 것이 가장 중요하며 보조적으로 전신적인 항진균제를 사용해야한다. 증례는 40세와 24세인 여자 환자들로서 전신적으로는 건강했으며 임상적 방사선적으로 만성 상악동 증세를 보였다.상악동 근치술을 시행하면서 국균종으로 여겨지는 암갈색 덩어리들이 관찰되었고 술 후 병리조직검사상 국균증으로 진단되었다.국균증으로 진단 후 보조적으로 전신적 항진균제를 투약하였으며 재발없이 치유되었다. Aspergillus is a fungus of the Acetomyces class that is most commonly encountered in the human environment.Aspergillosis of the maxillary sinus is not common and it requires special consideration to diagnose and eradicate. The disease is characterized by a wide range of initial symptoms, and should be considered as a possible diagnosis in sinusitis refractory to antibiotics and antral lavage. Generally the diagnosis of sinus aspergillosis can be confirmed by histologic examination, however, characteristic radiographic appearance such as coherene of radiodense sinus concretions can be found by careful examination of the radiograms. The choice of treatment of maxillary sinus aspergillosis is radical surgery with adjunctive systemic antifungal therapy. We experienced two cases of maxillary sinus aspergillosis, which initially diagnosed as chronic maxillary sinusitis and showed a necrotic mass intraoperatively and histologically diagnosed as aspergillosis.We reports theses cases with review of literature.

A mirror cam mechanism, a kind of conjugate cam mechanism, consists of two cams, two rollers, and two links. Since profiles of two mirror cams are identical, a simultaneous machining of two cams is achievable. Some machining errors on cam profiles do not result in the internal acting force, which often causes problems in high speed cam mechanism, between two links. Also, since angular accelerations of two links are same, the internal acting force by the difference of the angular accelerations does not occur in the mechanism. Thus the mirror cam mechanism is very useful in high speed machinery. This paper studies a design method as well as a machining method, and develops an exclusive CAD/CAM software for mirror cam profiles. The developed CAD/CAM software is applied to a typical mirror cam mechanism, and a mock-up equipment is built in order to test the machined mirror cam. Experimental investigations show that the contact between cam surface and roller surface according to cam rotation agrees well with the simulation on the developed CAD/CAM software.

This experiment was conducted to examine effects of different polyethylene film mulching, pinching methods, and shading level on growth and root yield of Bupleurum falcatum L. Plant height, leaf length, leaf width, stem diameter, root length, number of lateral roots and number of branches were fewer in a polyethylene film mulching than in a non-mulching. In a non-mulching, plant height was highest at a non-pinching and leaf length, leaf width, root length, root diameter, number of lateral roots, number of branches were greatest at the third pinching (25 Aug.) among the pinching treatments. In a polyethylene film mulching, plant height was highest at a non-mulching and leaf length, leaf width, stem diameter, root length, root diameter were greatest at the third pinching (25 Aug.) among the pinching treatments. Characteristics such as fresh aboveground weight, fresh root weight, dry aboveground weight, dry root weight were greatest in a polyethylene film mulching and total yield per 3.3㎡ was greatest in a non-mulching between polyethylene film mulching and non-mulching. Root yield in a non-mulching was two fold greater than in a polyethylene film mulching, and in a non-mulching, was much greater at the third-pinching (25 Aug.) among the pinching treatments. As the shading level was increased from 0 to 90%, plant height was increased from 83.4 to 100.3cm. Stem diameter, root length, and root diameter were decreased with the increased shading level. Fresh aboveground and root weights were decreased as shading level was increased.

Bucillamine is a novel cysteine derivative with two free intramolecular sulfhydryl groups, and has a preventive and therapeutic effect on adjuvant arthritis, suggesting its antirheumatic action. With respect to the effect on the immune system, bucillamine-exerted such immunoregulating actions are to nomalize an excessive reduction or acceleration in immune reaction. It is useful not only in patients with early stage of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but also in those with active RA retained for more than 10 years. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two bucillamine tablets, Rimatil^TM (Chong Kun Dang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) and Bucilin^TM (Kuhn Il Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Eighteen normal male volunteers. 23.67±2.09 years in age and 65.03±6.73㎏ in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized 2×2 cross-over study was employed. After three tablets containing 100㎎ of bucillamine per tablet were orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentrations of bucillamine in serum were determined using GC/MS with mass selective detector. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as AUC_t, C_max and T_max were calculated and ANOVA test was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters. The results showed that the differences in AUC_t, C_mex and T_max between two tablets were -0.29%, -3.20% and 8.22%, respectively, when calculated against the Rimatil^TM tablet. The powers (1-β) for AUC_t and C_max were 84.31% and 91.16%, respectively. Minimum detectable differences (Δ) at α=0.10 and 1-β=0.8 were less than 20% (e.g., 18.58% and 16.51% for AUC_t and C_max, respectively). The 90% confidence intervals were within ±20% (e.g., -12.77∼12.20 for AUC_t and -14.30∼7.90 for C_max). Two parameters met the criteria of KFDA for bioequivalence, indicating that Bucilin^TM tablet is bioequivalent to Rimatil^TM tablet.

This paper proposes and efficient learning method for improving the training performance of the neural networks using a hybrid of conjugate gradient algorithm and dynamic tunneling system. The conjugate gradient algorithm, which is the fast gradient algorithm, is applied for high speed optimization. The dynamic tunneling system, which is the deterministic method with tunneling phenomenon, is applied for global optimization. Converging to the local minima is estimated by dynamic tunneling system. The proposed method has been applied to the parity check and pattern classification. The simulation results show that the performance of proposed method is superior to those of a gradient descent algorithm and a hybrid of gradient descent and dynamic tunneling system.

Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), an endogenous component of the L-carnitine family, is naturally occurring molecule synthesized from L-carnitine (LC) by carnitine acetyl transferase. ALC has been shown to improve the cognitive performance of patients suffering from dementia of the Alzheimer's type and proposed for treating Alzheimer's disease in pharmacological doses. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two ALC tablets, Nicetiler^TM (Dong-A pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) and Neurocetil^TM (Kyung-Dong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration. Twenty six normal male volunteers, 22.80±2.76 year in age and 63.07 7.98㎏ in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized 2×2 cross-over study was employed. After one tablet containing 500㎎ of ALC was orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentrations of ALC in serum were determined using HPLC with fluorescence detector. Because of the presence of endogenous ALC, the calibration was performed using dialyzed serum. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as AUC_t, C_max and T_max were calculated and ANOVA was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters. The results showed that the differences in AUC_t, C_max and T_max between two tablets were 2.72%, -0.65% and -8.42%, respectively, when calculated against the Nicetile^TM tablet. The powers (1-β) for AUC_t and C_max were 94.87% and 87.17%, respectively. Minimum detectable differences (Δ) at α=0.05 and 1-β=0.8 were less than 20% (e.g., 15.58% and 19.16% AUC_t and C_max, respectively). The 90% confidence intervals were within ±20% (e.g., -11.84∼6.41 and -10.57∼11.88 for AUC_t and C_max, respectively). Two parameters met the criteria of KFDA for bioequivalence, indicating that Neurocetil^TM tablet is bioequivalent to Nicetile^TM tablet.

Purpose : The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone mineral density of iliac and tibial bone which are frequently selected as autogenic bone graft donor sites, and to evaluate the efficiency of this method as a guideline for the selection of bone graft donor site. Materials and Methods : In this study 61 male and 70 female volunteers at Chungbuk National University Hospital were involved between Jan. 1998 to Sept. 1999. We measured bone mineral density of the iliac and the tibial bone using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. We evaluated the data using the SAS system for Windows and bone mineral density of the lumbar was used for control. Results : Age showed the highest correlation in correlation matrix between physical and bone variables. Height and weight showed lower correlation of linear increment. In man, the change of bone density according to age demonstrated linear decrease irrespective of the lumbar, ilium, and tibia. In woman, the change of bone density according to age showed cubic form, which increased in the third and forth decade. So it had a peak bone mass on about 35 year-old, thereafter, the change of bone density slowly decreased until 50 year-old, but it rapidly decreased after 50 year-old and it slowly decreased again after 65 year-old. Both in all subjects and subject with osteoporosis, the change of bone mineral density according to age showed statistically significant decrease in lumbar and tibia, but ilium was irrespective. Conclusion : In patients of aged or with osteoporosis, ilium demonstrated less tendency of decrease in bone mineral density than tibla. So this preliminary study suggested that ilium seemed better donor site for autogenic bone graft than tibia.
