Concentration dependences of the isotropic Raman line widths for the $ {\nu}_1$ (C-H and C-D) and the ${\nu}_2\;(C{\equiv}N)$ modes for $CH_3CN$ and $CD_3CN\;in\;CCl_4$ solutions have been investigated. For the ${\nu}_1$ modes, the dephasing seems to be a good description for the isotropic line broadening in $CCl_4$ solution even though the concentration fluctuation can reproduce the experimental results also. For the ${\nu}_2$ modes, the concentration fluctuation was the dominant mechanism for the concentration-dependent line broadening.

Solvent dependence of the static solution properties of a polymer chain was studied by static light scattering technique for polystyrene in three good solvents, toluene, tetrahydrofuran and $CCl_4$. The molecular parameters such as radius of gyration and second virial coefficients of polystyrene are found to be clearly larger in THF than the other two solvents and they are in the order of tetrahydrofuran > toluene > $CCl_4$. The radius of gyration shows the same order while the difference is smaller. Nontheless, the penetration functions are found to have a comparable value about 0.2, which confirms the universality of the penetration function in high expansion regime over different nature of solvents.

우리나라 사람들에게는 유달리 높은 간염 발병률이 나타나고 있고 더우기 바이러스성 간염의 경우 풍토병 내지 전염병이라고 할 정도의 양상을 띠고 있다. 현재까지는 이러한 간질환에 적절한 치료약이 없는 점을 감안하여 저자들은 생약으로 부터 간질환에 유효한 성분을 분리하여 치료약으로 사용할 수 있도록 하기위하여 집중적인 연구를 지난 5년간 계속하여 왔다. 연구의 내용은 동서양의 고전및 연구보문을 조사하여 간보호 및 치료학으로 사용한 생약에 관한 문헌적 조사, 이들 생약중 채집 및 구입이 가능한 식물을 구하여 생약엑기스 제조, 이들 엑기스를 간염 동물 모델의 하나인 $CCl_{4}$로 유발시킨 간독성에 대한 보호작용의 검색, 보호작용을 나타내는 생약중에서 자원적 측면을 고려하여 국내에서 많이 생산되는 차전자(Plantago asiatica seeds)를 선택하였고, 차전자로 부터 간보호 작용을 나타내는 유효성분으로 iridoid 계열물질인 aucubin을 분리하였다. 그러나 aucubin이 차전자에 소량 밖에 없으므로 aucubin이 다량 함유된 식나무(Aucuba japonica)로 aucubin 추출자료생약을 바꾼후 aucubin의 간보호 작용을 간염 동물모델인, $CCl_{4}$ D-galactosamine 및 $\alpha$-amanitin등으로 유발시킨 간독성에 대한 보호작용을 보여 주었기 때문에, 이러한 간보호작용의 기전을 규명하는 연구를 진행하였고, 다음은 aucubin 자체의 급성 독성 및 기타 독성 유발여부를 밝히는 연구 등으로 요약 될 수 있다.

We underwent this study to know correlation between the amount of portosysternic shunt/hepatic fibrosis and bioavailability parameters such as AUC, Cmax, Tmax and t1 /2 of high extraction ratio drug, propranolol, in CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis model of rats. This study describes the bioavaility study of propranolol(5 mg/kg), Shunt Index using thallium-201 per rectum scintigraphy to to measure the amount of portosystemic shunt indirectly and intrahepatic hydroxyproline content performed in the CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis model of rats.

The anti-oxidant activities of fucosterol isolated from the marine algae Pelvetia siliquosa were investigated. Fucosterol exhibited a significant decrease in serum transaminase activities elevated by hepatic damage induced by CCl$_4$-intoxication in rats. Fucosterol inhibited the sGOT and sGPT activities by 25.57 and 63.16%, respectively. Fucosterol showed the increase in the anti-oxidant enzymes such as hepatic cytosolic superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities by 33.89, 21.56 and 39.24%, respectively, in CCl$_4$-intoxicated rats.

We have synthesized $^{99m}$Tc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3)-biocytin as a new imaging agent for hepatobiliary scintigraphy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of $^{99m}$Tc-MAG3-biocytin scintigraphy in differentiating carbon tetrachloride ( $CCl_4$)-induced hepatotoxicity from $\alpha$-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT)-induced cholestasis in mice, which reflecting the differential diagnosis of neonatal jaundice caused by neonatal hepatitis from congenital biliary atresia in humans. Methods: Balb/c mice (female, 20 g, n=4-6) were pretreated with $CCl_4$(0.5 or $1.0m\ell$/kg) and ANIT ($150 or 300 m\ell$/kg) 18 h before scintigraphy. Biochemical and histopathological examinations showed a pattern of typical acute hepatitis (increase of transaminases and hepatocellular necnsis) in $CCl_4$-treated mice and cholestasis (increase of alkaline phosphatase and ${\gamma}$-glutamyltransferase, and biliary hyperplasia) in ANIT-treated mice, respectively, Mice were fasted at least 4 hr prior to the intravenous injection of $^{99m}$Tc-MAG3-biocytin (18.5 MBq/20$\mu\textrm{g}$) in 2% human serum albumin in saline. Scintigraphy was performed with a ${\gamma}$-camera equipped with a 1-mm diameter pin-hole collimator for 30 min and images were acquired every 15 s. We compared the values of physical parameters, such as peak liver/heart ratio ($${\gamma}$_{max}$) and peak ratio time ($t_{max}$) far $^{99m}$Tc-MAG3-biocytin scintigraphy. Results: Scintigraphic parameters of the $CCl_4$-pretreated (0.5 $m\ell$/kg) group showed a 81.9% decrease of r$_{max}$, and 42.2% decrease of $t_{max}$, whereas the ANIT-pretreated ( $150m\ell$/kg) group showed a 53% decrease of $r_{max}$, and 2.36-fold increase of $t_{max}$, (P<0.05). These results demonstrate that the decrease of $r_{max}$ and the shortening of $t_{max}$ are characteristic features for hepatotoxicity, in contrast to the increase of $t_{max}$ and decrease of $r_{max}$ for biliary hyperplasia. Conclusion: $^{99m}$Tc-MAG3-biocytin hepatobiliary scintigraphy can distinguish hepatitis from cholestasis in mice model and may be similarly useful in humans which differentiating the cause of neonatal jaundice in clinical study.cal study.cal study.cal study.

Hedera rhombea (HR) has been used for treatments of hemorrage, chronic catarrh, jaundice, lithisis and convulsion. This study was done to isolate active compounds that have protective effect on liver damage. BuOH and EtOAc fractions of HR recovered serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and ${\gamma}-glutamyltranspeptidase$ (${\gamma}-GTP$) activities in CCl4 treated rats. We isolated 7 phenolic compounds from BuOH and EtOAc fractions, which were identified as 3-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,4-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, 4,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid, caffeic acid, methyl 3,4-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid and methyl 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid by chemical and spectral analysis. These compounds reduced significantly serum GOT and GPT elevated by CCl4 treatment in rats, and 3-caffeoyl quinic acid, 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid and caffeic acid also showed mild inhibitory activity against human immunodeficiency virus.
