Park, Sang-Won,Lee, Chan-Ho,Kim, Yeong Shik,Kang, Sam Sik,Jeon, Su Jin,Son, Kun Ho,Lee, Sun-Mee The Japanese Pharmacological Society 2008 JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGICAL SCIENCES Vol.106 No.1

<P>This study examined the effects of baicalin, a bioactive flavonoid isolated from <I>Scutellariae Radix</I>, on carbon tetrachloride (CCl<SUB>4</SUB>)-induced liver injury. Mice were treated intraperitoneally with 0.5 ml/kg CCl<SUB>4</SUB> and different groups of animals received 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg baicalin. At 24 h after the CCl<SUB>4</SUB> treatment, the level of serum aminotransferases and lipid peroxidation was significantly elevated, whereas the hepatic glutathione content was decreased. These changes were attenuated by baicalin. The histological studies showed that baicalin inhibited the portal inflammation, centrizonal necrosis, and Kupffer cell hyperplasia, which are the three most common characteristics of CCl<SUB>4</SUB>-induced liver damage. The serum level and mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α were markedly increased by the CCl<SUB>4</SUB> treatment but suppressed by baicalin. The mRNA and protein expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase and heme oxygenase-1 increased significantly at 24 h after the CCl<SUB>4</SUB> treatment. Baicalin attenuated the increase in the protein and gene expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase but augmented the increase in those of heme oxygenase-1. These findings suggest that baicalin protects hepatocytes from the oxidative damage caused by CCl<SUB>4</SUB>, and this protection is likely due to the induction of HO-1 expression and the inhibition of the proinflammatory mediators.</P>

강승원(Seung Won Kang),박천호(Chun Ho Pak),조용성(Yong Sung Cho) 한국원예학회 2007 원예과학기술지 Vol.25 No.3

Economical efficiency for production of high quality-potted plants was analyzed by types of irrigation system such as conventional fertigation, ebb & flow, and C-channel as subirrigation systems. After cost structure was analyzed, payback period of capital, internal rate return (IRR), and effects of reduced labor cost were estimated. The gross cost of cyclamen-producing farmers using hydroponic systems in automated greenhouses (10a) was about 100 million won. Of the gross cost, installation and operation costs occupied 74% and 25%, respectively. In the C-channel subirrigation system, gross cost was 120 million won approximately. Installation and operation costs occupied 70% and 30%, respectively. Payback period of capital was 4 years for fertigated irrigation and C-channel subirrigation system, whereas it was 5 years for ebb & flow. IRR of ebb & flow and C-channel subirrigation systems was higher than the interest rates of 4.82%, indicating economic efficiency.

In this study, To investigate the antioxidant activities of Rhaponticum uniflorum extracts (RUE), we assessed scavenging activities on DPPH, ABTS radicals, and reducing power. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities (SC50) of RUE were 96.97±1.19 μg/mL and 31.26±0.13 μ g/mL, respectively, and the reducing power significantly increased dose-dependent manner. To study the antioxidant effecters of RUE in H₂O₂ induced human keratinocytes, expression of Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were determined by Western blot and qRT-PCR. RUE induced the expression of HO-1, a critical target enzyme of Nrf2, in a concentration-dependent manner. The expression of HO- 1 mRNA was also induced in H₂O₂-treated HaCaT cells but no significant difference in the level of HO-1 mRNA was observed. Taken together, these results suggest that RUE may be useful as a potential ingredient for anti-aging products.

Shin, Tae-Kyeong,Kang, Mi-Sun,Lee, Ho-Youn,Seo, Moo-Sang,Kim, Si-Geun,Kim, Chi-Dae,Lee, Won-Suk The Korean Society of Pharmacology 2009 The Korean Journal of Physiology & Pharmacology Vol.13 No.3

This study aimed to investigate whether selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) attenuate brain injury and facilitate recovery following photothrombotic cortical ischemia in mice. Male ICR mice were anesthetized and systemically administered Rose Bengal. Permanent focal ischemia was induced in the medial frontal and somatosensory cortices by irradiating the skull with cold light laser. The animals were treated with fluoxetine or sertraline once a day for 14 d starting 1 h after ischemic insult. Treatment with fluoxetine and sertraline significantly reduced the infarct size. The Evans blue extravasation indices of the fluoxetine- and sertraline-treated groups were significantly lower than that of the vehicle group. Treatment with fluoxetine and sertraline shifted the lower limit of the mean arterial blood pressure for cerebral blood flow autoregulation toward normal, and significantly increased the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 ${\alpha}$ (HIF-1 ${\alpha}$) proteins in the ischemic region. These results suggest that SSRIs, such as fluoxetine and sertraline, facilitate recovery following photothrombotic cortical ischemia via enhancement of HO-1 and HIF-1 ${\alpha}$ proteins expression, thereby providing a benefit in therapy of cerebral ischemia.

Portable low-cost Kinect sensor was used to analyze standing balance ability of the elderly. Eighty subjects who can walk alone and have a normal cognitive level participated in this experiment. Based on Berg Balance scale (BBS) test with 52 points, subjects were divided into Healthy older (HO: 46 persons, BBS: 53.80 ± 1.19) and Impaired older (IO: 34 persons, BBS: 49.06 ± 2.03) group. Each subject performed 30 seconds four different standing balance tests (EO: Eyes Open, EC: Eyes Close, EOf: Eyes Open on foam, ECf: Eyes Close on foam). Five variables (Mean distance, Range of distance, Root mean square, Mean velocity, 95% ellipse area) were calculated from the hip joint center movement of Kinect sensor. Results showed that there were significant differences between groups for four different standing tests. Calculated variables from kinect sensor showed significant correlation with BBS score. Especially, mediolateral mean distance, mediolateral root mean square, mediolateral range of distance and 95% ellipse area showed discriminative ability for all tests. Mean values of variables of IO were higher than those of HO, which means the decreased balance ability in IO compared with HO. Therefore, it was possible to estimate simple balance assessment of the elderly using portable low-cost Kinect sensor.

A double-walled carbon nanotube oscillator encapsulating a copper nanowire

Kang, Jeong Won,Jiang, Qing,Jung Hwang, Ho IOP Pub 2006 Nanotechnology Vol.17 No.21

<P>A double-walled carbon nanotube (CNT) oscillator encapsulating a copper nanowire has been investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Our simulation results show that the excess energy due to the interactions between the copper nanowire and the outer CNT were around 1% of the excess of van der Waals energy between the inner and the outer CNTs. The classical oscillation theory and the theory given by Zheng <I>et al</I> (2002 <I>Phys. Rev. Lett.</I> <B>88</B> 045503) provide a fairly good estimate of the mass-dependent frequency of a CNT oscillator encapsulating a metal nanowire. The nanotube oscillator encapsulating a metal nanowire is found to be more dependent on the encapsulated metal mass than the metal–carbon interaction.</P>

Measurement of Cohesion Force between Diamond and Matrix in CMP Pad Conditioner

Kang Seung-Koo,Song Min-Seok,Jee Won-Ho 한국분말야금학회 2006 한국분말야금학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2006 No.1

Currently Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) has become an essential step in the overall semiconductor wafer fabrication technology. Especially the CMP pad conditioner, one of the diamond tools, is required to have strong diamond cohesion. Strong cohesion between diamond and metal matrix prevents macro scratch on the wafer during CMP Process. Typically the diamond tool has been manufactured by sintered, brazed and electro-plated methods. In this paper, some results will be reported of cohesion between diamond and metal matrix of the diamond tools prepared by three different manufacturing methods. The cohesion force of brazed diamond tool is found stronger than the others. This cohesion force is increased in reverse proportion to the contact area of diamond and metal matrix. The brazed diamond tool has a strong chemical combination of the interlayer composed of Cr in metal matrix and C in diamond, which enhance the interfacial cohesion strength between diamonds and metal matrix.
