We analyzed haplotypes for 22 Y chromosomal STRs (Y-STRs), including 17 Yfiler loci (DYS19, DYS385a/b, DYS389I/II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DY438, DYS439, DYS448, DYS456, DYS458, DYS635 and Y-GATA-H4) and five additional STRs (DYS388, DYS446, DYS447, DYS449 and DYS464), and Y chromosomal haplogroup distribution in 270 unrelated individuals from the Pathans residing in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan using in-house multiplex PCR systems. Each Y-STR showed diversities ranging from 0.2506 to 0.8538, and the discriminatory capacity (DC) was 73.7% with 199 observed haplotypes using 17 Yfiler loci. By the addition of 5 Y-STRs to the Yfiler system, the DC was increased to 85.2% while showing 230 observed haplotypes. Among the additional 5 Y-STRs, DYS446, DYS447 and DYS449 were major contributors to enhancing discrimination. In the analysis of molecular variance, the Pathans of this study showed significant differences from other Pathan populations as well as neighboring population sets. In Y-SNP analysis, a total of 12 Y chromosomal haplogroups were observed and the most frequent haplogroup was R1a1a with 49.3% frequency. To obtain insights on the origin of Pathans, the network analysis was performed for the haplogroups G and Q observed from the Pathans and the Jewish population groups including Ashkenazim and Sephardim, but little support for a Jewish origin could be found. In the present study, we report Y-STR population data in Pathans of Pakistan, and we emphasize the need for adding additional markers to the commonly used 17 Yfiler loci to achieve more improved discriminatory capacity in a population with low genetic diversity.

Y chromosome single nucleotide polymorphisms (Y-SNPs) are useful markers for reconstructing male lineages through hierarchically arranged allelic sets known as haplogroups, and are thereby widely used in the fields such as human evolution, anthropology and forensic genetics. The Y haplogroup tree was recently revised with newly suggested Y-SNP markers for designation of several subgroups of haplogroups C2, O2b and O3a, which are predominant in Koreans. Therefore, herein we analyzed these newly suggested Y-SNPs in 545 unrelated Korean males who belong to the haplogroups C2, O2b or O3a, and investigated the reconstructed topology of the Y haplogroup tree. We were able to confirm that markers L1373, Z1338/JST002613-27, Z1300, CTS2657, Z8440 and F845 define the C2 subhaplogroups, C2b, C2e, C2e1, C2e1a, C2e1b and C2e2, respectively, and that markers F3356, L682, F11, F238/F449 and F444 define the O subhaplogroups O2b1, O2b1b, O3a1c1, O3a1c2 and O3a2c1c, respectively. Among six C2 subhaplogroups (C2b, C2e, C2e1*, C2e1a, C2e1b and C2e2), the C2e haplogroup and its subhaplogroups were found to be predominant, and among the four O2b subhaplogroups (O2b*, O2b1*, O2b1a and O2b1b), O2b1b was most frequently observed. Among the O3a subhaplogroups, O3a2c1 was predominant and it was further divided into the subhaplogroups O3a2c1a and O3a2c1c with a newly suggested marker. However, the JST002613-27 marker, which had been known to define the haplogroup C2f, was found to be an ancestral marker of the C2e haplogroup, as is the Z1338 marker. Also, the M312 marker for the O2b1 haplogroup designation was replaced by F3356, because all of the O2b1 haplotypes showed a nucleotide change at F3356, but not at M312. In addition, the F238 marker was always observed to be phylogenetically equivalent to F449, while both of the markers were assigned to the O3a1c2 haplogroup. The confirmed phylogenetic tree of this study with the newly suggested Y-SNPs could be valuable for anthropological and forensic investigations of East Asians including Koreans.

Oh, Y.N.,Lee, H.Y.,Lee, E.Y.,Kim, E.H.,Yang, W.I.,Shin, K.J. Elsevier Science 2015 FORENSIC SCIENCE INTERNATIONAL GENETICS Vol.15 No.-

In this study, 363 Korean father-son haplotype transfers in 351 families were analyzed using an in-house multiplex PCR system for 14 Y-STRs (DYS385a/b, DYF387S1, DYS391, DYS449, DYS460, DYS481, DYS518, DYS533, DYS549, DYS570, DYS576, DYS627 and DYS643), that included 11 loci newly added to the PowerPlex Y23 system or the Yfiler Plus system. The Y-STRs showed gene diversity values ranging from 0.2499 to 0.9612; the multicopy Y-STR loci DYS385 and DYF387S1 had high gene diversity of 0.9612 and 0.9457, respectively. In addition, DYF387S1, which has two copies, showed three alleles in seven individuals, and micro-variant alleles were observed in 14 individuals at four loci (DYS448, DYS518, DYS570 and DYS627). Among 351 haplotypes for the 11 newly added Y-STRs, 350 different haplotypes were observed, with an overall haplotype diversity of 0.9999 and discrimination capacity of 99.72%. In 363 haplotype transfers from 351 pedigrees, 29 single-step mutations were observed at 11 Y-STRs. Locus-specific mutation rate estimates varied from 0.0 to 1.93x10<SUP>-2</SUP>, with an average estimated mutation rate of 6.66x10<SUP>-3</SUP>. Two father-son pairs had mutations at two different loci in 11 Y-STRs. The number of pairs with mutations at multiple loci increased to five when the mutation event was investigated for haplotype transfer at 28 Y-STRs including 17 Yfiler loci and 11 Y-STRs examined in this study: four father-son pairs had mutations at two loci, and one pair had mutations at three loci. Overall, mutations were frequently observed at DYS449, DYS576 and DYS627 loci, which are known to be rapidly mutating Y-STRs. Mutation rate estimates at most loci were not significantly different from rates in other populations, but estimates for DYF387S1, DYS518 and DYS570 were considerably lower in the Korean population than in other populations.

To see whether there is any differencies in RNA dependent DNA polymerase activities between monoclonal antibody-producing hydridoma cells and non-producing hybridoma cells, Balb/c female mice were immunized with the purified viral surface protein of D-variant of encephalomyocarditis virus and then fused with myeloma cells (NR-1). After cloring, monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma cell lines were separated from non-producing hydridoma cell lines. RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activities were measured in the supernatant of monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma clones and non-producing hybr idoma clones, and myeloma cells as control, Monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma cells showed statistically significant higher activity as compar compare to that of nonproducing hybridoma cells. To find whether RNA-dependent DNA polymerase releasing cells aware secreting or budding C-type virus particles, those cells were examined with electron microscope. The hybridoma cell which secrete large amount of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase shows significant number of extracellular C-type virus particles. In constrast, non-producing hydridoma cells contains a lot of intracellular C-type virus particles. It is concluded that monoclonal antibody-producing hydridoma cells released particles. It is concluded that monoclonal antibody-producing hydridoma cells released significant amount of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase land extracellular C-type virus particles, while non-producing hydridoma cells showed less release of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase and contains intracellular C-type virus particles.

Y₂O₃(99.9%)와 BaCO₃(99.9%) 및 CuO(99.9%)를 사용하여 Y₁Ba₂Cu₃O_(7-x)(123) 분말을 발화합성법에 의해 제조하였다. 발화전 용액을 여러 가지 pH로 변화시켜 제조하였으며, 이 분말을 성형하여 열처리 온도와 시간 변화에 따른 상형성과 반응특성을 조사하였다. 시료의 조성과 조직의 특성은 ICP와 SEM을 이용하여 측정하였고, Y-Ba-Cu-O계의 상형성과 전화율을 결정하기 위해 X선 회절분석을 하였다. 발화합성법을 이용하여 pH 7(±0.3)에서 제조된 123 분말이 순도와 균일성 및 반응특성에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다. pH 7(±0.3)에서 제조된 분말을 이용한 123 상생성에 따른 활성화에너지(ΔE_n)는 191 kJ/mol으로서 고상반응법의 230 kJ/mol에 약 13% 정도 더 낮았다. The Y₁Ba₂Cu₃O_(7-x)(123) superconductor powders were prepared by pyrophoric synthesis method(PSM) using Y₂O₃(99.9%), BaCO₃(99.9%), and CuO(99.9%) powders. The phase formation and reaction kinetics of 123 superconductor manufactured with powders prepared in various pHs of pyrophoric synthetic solution have been studied through the experiments at various heat treatment temperatures and times. Inductively coupled plasma(ICP) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) measurements were performed to examine the composition and morphology of the sample. X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis was done to determine phase formation and conversion ratio of Y-Ba-Cu-O systems. The 123 powder prepared at pH 7(±0.3) yields the best result in terms of purity, homogeneity, and reactivity. The activation energies(ΔE_n) of 123 phase formation were found to be 191 kJ/mol and 230 kJ/mol in solid state reaction method and pyrophoric synthesis method, respectively.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify college student's perception and practice of 'National Cancer Prevention Actions' and the factors that influence the perception and practice. Method: The participants were 310 undergraduates selected by convenience sampling at colleges in Seoul. Instrument was 2014 Survey of Perception and Practice of National Cancer Prevention Actions by National Cancer Center(2014), and has been modified for the purpose of the study. The data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe test with SPSS 23.0 Windows software. Results: The most recognized action for cancer prevention in college students was "Do not smoke, also avoid smoking smoke"(96.8%) while the most unrecognized was "Get a type B hepatitis vaccination"(58.7%). The most practiced action for cancer prevention in college students was "Sexually as to safe sex"(94.8%) while the most unpracticed was "Exercise five times a week or more, for at least 30 minutes a day"(33.9%). Among general characteristics, participants' age (t=-2.015, p<.05), major (F=3.109, p<.001), and residential type (F=4.959, p<.01) were statistically significant in the recognition of Cancer Prevention Actions and major(F=3.341 p<.05) and residential type(F=3.827, p<.05) were also significant in the practice of Cancer Prevention Actions. Among health characteristics, health concern(F=3.154, p<.05) and education in cancer(t=-3.112, p<.01) showed statistically significant differences in the recognition of Cancer Prevention Actions while health concern(F=7.896 p<.001) and subjective health status(F=9.913, p<.001) showed differences in the practice of Cancer Prevention Actions. Conclusion: These findings showed the gap between the perception and practice of cancer prevention actions. Considering the importance of individual characteristics, it is essential to develop a differentiated cancer prevention education program for college students. Also, nursing intervention program should be developed to raise the alertness of cancer in order to enhance cancer preventive practice.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship among empathy ability, communication ability, and psychological burnout in nursing students on clinical practice. Method: Data was collected using questionnaires between September 20th, 2017 to January 2th, 2018. Participants of this study were 159 of grade 3 and 4 nursing students who had completed at least one semester of clinical practice experience and currently attending universities located in Seoul. Data were analyzed using percentage, average, standard deviation, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe’s test and Pearson’s correlation coefficient using the SPSS WIN 24.0 program. Results: The empathy ability was positively correlated with communication ability(r=.437, p=.000). And the communication ability was negatively correlated with psychological burnout(r=-.390, p=.000). Also the empathy ability was negatively correlated with psychological burnout(r=-217, p=.006). Conclusion: These results suggest that psychological burnout is closely related to empathy ability and communication ability. Based on these results, empathy ability and communication ability need to be increased by efficient management and intervention to decrease the degree of psychological burnout in nursing students. Also, the findings should be considered when developing plans or education programs for nursing students’ major adjustment.

연구의 목적은 다운증후군을 산전진단하기 위한 다양한 산전선별검사 (나이; 35세 이상, 임산부 혈청 marker를 이용한 triple test, 초음파; 비정상 소견, 후경부 투명대 (nuchal translucency), 후경부두께 (nuchal fold thickness))의 기여율를 비교하기 위한 것이다. 1990년 1월부터 1999년 9월까지 본원에서 산전 및 산후에 진단된 례는 총 96례 이었다. 산전 및 신생아기에 진단된 다운증후군의 빈도는 각각 68례 (71 %), 28례 (29 %)였다. 다운증후군 태아를 임신했던 임산부의 평균연령은 33±5.7세이다. 다운증후군의 1,000분만당 연도별 빈도율은 1990년부터 1999년까지 각각 0.4, 1.3, 0.7, 0.7, 1.6, 0.7, 1.2, 2.2, 2.0, 그리고 2.3 (Y=0.28±0.18 year, P=0.01)이었다. 산전진단된 다운증후군의 비율 (%)은 지난 10년간 각각 0 (0/2), 43 (3/7), 50 (2/4), 25 (1/4), 56 (5/9), 100 (5/5), 71 (5/7), 78 (14/18), 78 (14/18), 그리고 89 (17/19) (Y=12.9±8.9 year, P=0.000) 이었다. 다운증후군을 산전진단하기 위한 다양한 산전선별 검사에 따른 기여율은 35세이상의 연령에 의하면 30.2±5.6 %, triple test의 경우 18.2±3.4 %, 초음파에 의한 경우 51.7±6.3 % 이며, 초음파에 의한 산전 선별 검사가 통계적으로 유의하게 연령이나 triple test에 의한 경우 보다 다운증후군의 산전진단에 기여율이 높았다. (P=0.008) 결론적으로 본 연구에 의하면 지난 10년 동안 다운증후군을 산전 진단하기 위한 여러 선별 검사방법의 적용은 효율적이었으며, 특히 초음파에서 다양한 소견을 이용한 다운증후군의 산전선별검사는 연령이나 triple test 보다는 더욱더 의미가 있다고 추론된다. Objective : The purpose of this study was comparison of the contribution rate for prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome using various screening methods (Age: greater than or equal to 35 years old, Serum markers: Triple test, Ultrasonography: abnormal sonographic findings, nuchal translucency, nuchal fold thickness).Methods : Total 96 cases of Down syndrome, prenatally or postnatally diagnosed between Jan. 1990 and Sept. 1999, made up the study population. We got the contribution rate of various prenatal screening methods of down syndrome, and obtained the efficiency of various screening program applied for last 10 years. Results : The frequencies of Down syndrome confirmed in prenatal and postnatal were 68 (71%) and 28 (29%) in respectively. The mean age of mother of Down syndrome fetus was 33.0±5.7 years old. The frequency rate of Down syndrome was 0.4, 1.3, 0.7, 0.7, 1.6, 0.7, 1.2, 2.2, 2.0 and 2.3 a 1,000 deliveries from 1990 to 1999 (Y= 0.28+0.18 year, P=0.01). The percentage of Down syndrome diagnosed prenatally was 0 (0/2), 43 (3/7), 50 (2/4), 25 (1/4), 56 (5/9), 100 (5/5), 71 (5/7), 78 (14/18), 78 (14/18) and 89 (17/19) from 1990 to 1999 (Y= 12.9+8.9 year, P=0.000). The contribution rate of prenatal diagnosis for Down syndrome was 30.2±5.6% by age, 18.2±3.4% by triple test and 51.7±6.3% by ultrasonography, and was significantly difference among each screen methods (P=0.008). Conclusions : This study shows that our prenatal screening program is highly effective to detect Down syndrome and especially ultrasonographic findings (abnormal sono findings, Nuchal translucency, Nuchal fold thickness) may be more important than that of age or Triple test to detect the Down syndrome prenatally.
