Fungi belonging to the Paecilomyces spp. have recently been used as food and herbal medicines in Korea and are greatly popular as commercially available powdered supplement or dried fruiting body. Despite this acceptance and its use, little is known of the genes related to its reactive agents. Presently, We have constructed an olig-d(T) primed directional cDNA library from the silkworm Dongchunghacho, an entomopathogenic fungus, of which species is belonging to Paecilomyces spp. based on the previous identification of ITS1 and ITS2 at the molecular level and collected from Jocheon Miryang, Korea. To isolate and screen genes in the fungus, 626 expressed sequence tags(ESTs) were generated by a partial sequencing from the cDNA library. cDNA encoding the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase(Pt-GAPDH) of Paecilomyces tenuipes- Jocheon was cloned from the above cDNA library. The complete cDNA sequence of Pt-GAPDH is comprised of 1,014bp encoding 338 amino acid residues. The deduced protein sequence of Pt-GAPDH showed higher homology with Beauberia bassiana-GAPDH(93% amino acid identity). Hydropathy analysis revealed that Pt-GAPDH protein is hydrophilic. The major three amino acids in its composition of amino acid residues were alanine(11.54%), valine(9.47%) and glycine(8.88%). The Pt-GAPDH gene of Paecilomyces tenuipes entomopathogenic fungus consisted of three exons and two introns coding for 338 amino acid residues, and the genomic DNA length of the gene spans 1302bp. The accession number of the gene in GenBank are GU997099 for Pt-GAPDH cDNA and GU997102 for Pt-GAPDH genomic DNA. More investigation works including gene expression, immunological analysis etc. will be carried continuously without hesitation after this presentation.

서영범,김성욱,장재식,강혁주,이중현,윤병구,김욱년,이광헌,이구,유석동,양창헌,이정호,이영현,이창우,서정일 동국대학교 의학연구소 2000 東國醫學 Vol.7 No.-

자가면역성 간염은 대개 만성 경과를 가지며, 혈중 자가면역항체와 혈청 글로불린치의 상승, 그리고 조직학적으로 괴사 염증성 변화를 특징으로 하는 질환으로 아직 정확한 병인이 밝혀져 있지 않은 상태이다. 발병연령은 대개 젊은 영자(15-25세)에서 호발한다. 이 질환은 급성 간염의 임상경과를 보일 수 있으나, 심한 급성 간염이나 전격성 간염으로도 나타날 수 있는데, 이 경우 아주 나쁜 예후를 보인다고 한다. 치료는 자가면역성 간염 임상 경과의 다양성이나 병인, 병리기전의 불확실성에도 불구하고 대개 steroid 치료에 반응하는 것으로 알려져 있으며 대개 80%의 관해율을 나타내며 궁극적으로 간경변으로의 진행을 막을 수 있는 것으로 보인다. 저자들은 58세 남자에서 발생한 급성의 경과를 가지고 심한 황달을 동반한 자가면역성 간염을 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic necroinflammatory liver disorder of unknown cause associated with circulating autoantibodies and a high serum globulin level. The age of onset of AIH show a peak between the age of 15 and 25 years. AIH can develop and be manifested as acute hepatitis, but severe form of acute hepatitis or fulminant hepatic failure has a poor prognosis. Although AIH is likely to progress from chronic active hepatitis to cirrhosis, steroid therapy can control the disease activity, prolong survival, improve the quality of life , and defer liver transplantation. In the present report we describe a 58-year-old man who admitted because of progressive jaundice and fatigue. He was diagnosed with AIH from laboratory test result showing positivity for antinuclear antibodies, anti-smooth muscle antibodies, and negativity for hepatitis viral markers and from liver biopsy. Steroid therapy, oral administration of prednisolone, was effective in improving the liver function test. Following liver biopsy 6 months after onset shows markedly improved necroinflammatory activity.

Current and Future Perspectives in Craniosynostosis

Kang, Seok-Gu,Kang, Joon-Ki The Korean Neurosurgical Society 2016 Journal of Korean neurosurgical society Vol.59 No.3

Craniosynostosis has a varied clinical spectrum, ranging from isolated single suture involvement to multi-sutural fusions. Greater understanding of the pathogenesis of craniosynostosis has led to the development of practical treatment protocols. Three stages of growth have determined the approach to managing craniosynostosis : the early period, up to 12 months; the intermediate period, from 1 to 10 years; and the late period, beginning at 10 years. This review discusses current surgical management and future perspectives in craniosynostosis.

A case of primary adenosquamous carcinoma of the liver

Gu Hyum Kang,Byung Seok Lee,Dae Young Kang 한국간담췌외과학회 2013 한국간담췌외과학회지 Vol.17 No.1

Adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) is a rare tumor of the liver, which carries a poor prognosis. It has been reported mostly in the form of case studies. Recently, we experienced a case of primary ASC of the liver that has been preoperatively considered as cholangiocelluar carcinoma of the liver. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, as well as transitional area, including the transformation of adenocarcinoma to squamous cell carcinoma. The patient remained well with no evidence of post-resection complication or recurrence for 15 month.

HCC : PE-077 ; Primary adenosquamous carcinoma of the liver: A case report

( Gu Hyum Kang ),( Dae Young Kang ),( Byung Seok Lee1 ) 대한간학회 2012 춘·추계 학술대회 (KASL) Vol.2012 No.-

Background: Adenosquamouscarcinoma is a rare tumor of the liver, which carries a poor prognosis. It has been reported mostly in form of case studies. From five hepatobiliary ASC for the past 10 years in our institute, one primary hepatic ASC was observed. We describe a case of primary hepatic ASC preoperatively diagnosed as CCC, and attempting to explore it clinicopathologically. Case: We experienced a case of primary adenosquamous carcinoma of the liver preoperatively considered as cholangiocelluar carcinoma (CCC) of the liver. MRI from our hospital showed 5cm sized lobulated mass with dilatation of peritumoral intrahepatic duct (IHD) in Left segment of the liver which was consistent with hepatic CCC and no evidence of any abnormal lymphadenopathy in significant size. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma as well as transitional area including the transformation of adenocarcinoma to squamous cell carcinoma. Conclusions: In our case, microscopically the tumor was composed of adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma as well as transitional area including the transformation of adenocarcinoma to squamous cell carcinoma. This is in accordance with the microscopic studies of four other hepatobiliary carcinoma of our institute. The adenocarcinoma component arising from the main biliary duct seemed to differentiate into the squamous cell carcinoma component.

Corepressor MMTR/DMAP1 Is Involved in both Histone Deacetylase 1- and TFIIH-Mediated Transcriptional Repression

Kang, Bong Gu,Shin, June Ho,Yi, Jae Kyu,Kang, Ho Chul,Lee, Jong Joo,Heo, Hyen Seok,Chae, Ji Hyung,Shin, Incheol,Kim, Chul Geun American Society for Microbiology 2007 Molecular and cellular biology Vol.27 No.10

<B>ABSTRACT</B><P>A transcription corepressor, <I>M</I>AT1-<I>m</I>ediated <I>t</I>ranscriptional <I>r</I>epressor (MMTR), was found in mouse embryonic stem cell lines. MMTR orthologs (DMAP1) are found in a wide variety of life forms from yeasts to humans. MMTR down-regulation in differentiating mouse embryonic stem cells in vitro resulted in activation of many unrelated genes, suggesting its role as a general transcriptional repressor. In luciferase reporter assays, the transcriptional repression activity resided at amino acids 221 to 468. Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) interacts with MMTR both in vitro and in vivo and also interacts with MMTR in the nucleus. Interestingly, MMTR activity was only partially rescued by competition with dominant-negative HDAC1(H141A) or by treatment with an HDAC inhibitor, trichostatin A (TSA). To identify the protein responsible for HDAC1-independent MMTR activity, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen with the full-length MMTR coding sequence as bait and found MAT1. MAT1 is an assembly/targeting factor for cyclin-dependent kinase-activating kinase which constitutes a subcomplex of TFIIH. The coiled-coil domain in the middle of MAT1 was confirmed to interact with the C-terminal half of MMTR, and the MMTR-mediated transcriptional repression activity was completely restored by MAT1 in the presence of TSA. Moreover, intact MMTR was required to inhibit phosphorylation of the C-terminal domain in the RNA polymerase II largest subunit by TFIIH kinase in vitro. Taken together, these data strongly suggest that MMTR is part of the basic cellular machinery for a wide range of transcriptional regulation via interaction with TFIIH and HDAC.</P>
