In the present study, we investigated the effects of cuprizone on cell death, glial activation, and neuronal plasticity induced by hypothermia after ischemia in gerbils. Food was supplemented with cuprizone at 0.2% ad libitum for eight weeks. At six weeks after diet feeing, gerbils received transient forebrain ischemia with or without hypothermic preconditioning. Cuprizone treatment for 8 weeks increased the number of astrocytes, microglia, and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in the hippocampus. In addition, cuprizone treatment significantly decreased the number of proliferating cells and neuroblasts in the dentate gyrus. Brain ischemia caused cell death, disruption of myelin basic proteins, and reactive gliosis in CA1. In addition, ischemia significantly increased pro-inflammatory cytokines and the number of proliferating cells and differentiating neuroblasts in the dentate gyrus. In contrast, hypothermic conditioning attenuated these changes in CA1 and the dentate gyrus. However, cuprizone treatment decreased cell survival induced by hypothermic preconditioning after ischemia and increased the number of reactive microglia and astrocytes in CA1 as well as of macrophages in the subcallosal zone. These changes occurred because the protective effect of hypothermia in ischemic damage was disrupted by cuprizone administration. Furthermore, cuprizone decreased ischemia-induced proliferating cells and neuroblasts in the dentate gyrus

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily enzymes in mammals and plays a major role in metabolizing endogenous hormones in the liver. In recent days, CYP1A2 expression has been found in not only the liver but also other tissues including the pancreas and lung. However, little information is available regarding the expression of CYP1A2 in the ovary, in spite of the facts that the ovarian follicle growth and atresia are tightly associated with controls of endocrine hormonal networks. Therefore, the expression of CYP1A2 in the ovaries of prepubertal and pubertal rats was investigated to assess its expression pattern and puberty-related alteration. It was demonstrated that the expression level of CYP1A2 was significantly (p < 0.01) higher in the pubertal ovaries than prepubertal counterparts. At the ovarian follicle level in both groups, whereas CYP1A2 expression was less detectable in the primordial, primary and secondary follicles, the strongly positive expression of CYP1A2 was localized in the granulosa cell layers in the antral and pre-ovulatory follicles. However, the ratio of CYP1A2-positive ovarian follicle was significantly (p < 0.01) higher in the ovary of pubertal group (73.1 ± 3.1%) than prepubertal one (41.0 ± 10.5%). During the Immunofluorescence, expression of CYP1A2 was mainly localized in Fas-positive follicles, indicating the atretic follicles. In conclusion, these results suggested that CYP1A2 expression was mainly localized at the atretic follicular cells and affected by the onset of puberty. Further study is still necessary but we hypothesize that CYP1A2 expresses in the atretic follicles to metabolize residue of the reproductive hormones. These findings may have important implications for the fields of reproductive biology of animals.

The purpose of this study was to quickly and effectively identify the Nosema disease of bumblebees in Gangwon Province in Korea. Bumblebees are crucial pollinators of various crops, and microsporidia are the critical pathogens of these hosts. When bumblebees are infected with Nosema bombi, their abdomens can become distended. Paralyzed and infected workers often become sluggish and die early. We have identified the morphology of the microsporidium by light and electron microscopy, and found it to have fairly small oval spores, as has been described previously in many other articles. For the specific and sensitive diagnosis of the microsporidian parasite N. bombi in bumblebees, we have developed an improved method of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for expeditious diagnosis. Two pairs of primers were tested on N. bombi and the related microsporidia Nosema apis and Nosema sp., both of which infect Bombus ignitus and Bombus hypocrita sapporoensis. Furthermore, we have verified and analyzed the 16SrRNA sequence data of N. bombi in bumblebees by using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) server at the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

A Streptomyces sp. isolated from a soil sample collected in Taejeon, Korea has previously been found to produce two new polyene antibiotics. The two new antibiotics were named "16-methyloxazolomycin (antibacterial)" and "tetrin C (antifungal)", and their chemical structures are presented elsewhere [10, 11]. In the current study, chemotaxonomy, numerical taxonomy, and ISP methods were all employed for the taxonomic study. The spore chains were spirales and the spore surface was smooth. The spore mass was a gray series and no melanin pigment was produced. On the basis of the morphological and physiological properties, the microorganism was identified to be Streptomyces erumpens, belonging to the gray series of category 1V, as defined by Bergey`s Manual. Tetrin C at the concentration of 20㎍/ml demonstrated a potent in vivo (pot test) preventive effect against rice blast, rice sheath blight, cucumber gray mold, wheat powdery mildew, and barley leaf rust.

<P>PURPOSE: To establish optimal Doppler ultrasonographic (US) venous pulsatility index and computed tomographic (CT) criteria for right hepatic vein (RHV) stenosis after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and to compare accuracies of these methods by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study was approved by an institutional review board; informed consent was waived. Eighty patients (48 men, 32 women; mean age, 51.5 years +/- 9.2 [standard deviation]) underwent Doppler US and CT within 8 days of hepatic venography following right lobe LDLT between October 2006 and September 2008. At venography, RHVs were classified into a stenosis or nonstenosis group. At Doppler US, venous pulsatility index was defined as the difference between maximum and minimum frequency shifts divided by maximum frequency shift. At CT, diameters of anastomosis and RHV were measured; percentage of stenosis was calculated. Mean Doppler US and CT parameters in the two groups were compared; ROC analysis was performed. RESULTS: There were 30 stenotic and 50 nonstenotic RHVs. Mean venous pulsatility index and mean anastomosis diameter were significantly lower and mean percentage of stenosis was significantly higher in the stenosis than the nonstenosis group (P < .001 each). Optimal cutoffs for venous pulsatility index, anastomosis diameter, and percentage of stenosis were 0.16, 3.7 mm, and 47%, respectively. Sensitivity and specificity were 86.7% and 68.0% for venous pulsatility index, 96.7% and 88.0% for anastomosis diameter, and 96.7% and 86.0% for percentage of stenosis, respectively. At ROC analysis, anastomosis diameter (P = .002) and percentage of stenosis (P = .003) were significantly more accurate than venous pulsatility index. CONCLUSION: CT is more accurate than Doppler US for RHV stenosis after LDLT, with venous pulsatility index as the sole sonographic criterion. Patients suspected of having RHV stenosis at Doppler US may benefit from CT to reduce unnecessary venography.</P>
