The organic electroluminescene (EL) device has gathered much interested because of its potential in materials and simple device fabrication. We fabricated EL device which have a mixed single emitting layer containing N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine [TPD] and poly(3-hexylthiophene) [P3HT]. The molar ratio between P3HT and TPD chaged with 1:1, 3:1, 5:1, 3:2 and 5:2. EL intensity of ITO/P3HT+TPD/Mg:In devices is enhanced by addition of TPD into P3HT. This can be explained that the energy transfer occurs from TPD to P3HT. Recombination probability increases in emitting layer because that TPD as hole transport material plays a role more injection hole and Mg:In (3.7eV) electrode has low work function make easily electron injection. ITO/P3HT+TPD(5:2)/Mg:In devices emit orange-red light at 28V.

Hwangryunagyo-tang (HT) is a herbal cocktail to treat insomnia induced by yin deficiency with effulgent fire. In the present study, the onset time and the duration time of sleep were measured 30 minutes after thiopental sodium injection. And c-fos immunohistochemistry was performed to find the activated nerve cells of the ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO) and tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) sites in the brain. HT significantly increased the number of activated nerve cells in the sleep-inducing center (VLPO), whereas HT significantly decreased the number of activated nerve cells in the arousal center (TMN). It could be concluded that the HT shortened the onset time and increased the duration time for sleep induced by thiopental sodium. And it was confirmed that the mechanism acted by activating the sleep-inducing center (VLPO) and suppressing the arousal center (TMN) in the brain. The results are considered to be useful as scientific evidence HT can be used clinically for the treatment of insomnia caused by yin deficiency with effulgent fire.

The inhibitory effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on the isolated intestinal strips of the tortoise (Amyda japonica), rat, rabbit and guinea pig was investigated. 1) The strips from the middle or lower part of the tortoise intestine responded with relaxation to 5-HT $(10^{-9}{\sim}10^{-5}g/ml)$, and the magnitude of the relaxation was proportional to the dose of 5-HT. The rectal part of the tortoise intestine, in contrast, showed contraction, the magnitude of which also was proportional to the dose of 5-HT. 2) Various blocking agents such as methysergide, morphine, tetracaine, nethalide, bretylium, hexamethonium, mecamylamine and chlorisondamine, showed no selective blocking activity on the relaxant effect of 5-HT on the tortoise intestine. The inhibitory effect of isoproterenol on the tortoise intestine, however, was selectively blocked by nethalide, and the stimulatory effect of 5-HT on the rectal part of the tortoise was blocked by methysergide. 3) In the presence of 5-HT, the stimulatory effect of DMPP on the tortoise intestine was remarkably attenuated, whereas that of acetylcholine and $BaCl_2$ was little affected. In the presence of isoproterenol, the stimulatory effect of acetylcholine and $BaCl_2$ were affected, but that of DMPP was little affected. 4) Large dose of 5-HT($10^{-4}$g/ml) produced inhibitory effect on the strips from the distal part of the isolated colon of the rat, rabbit and guinea pig, when the strips had been exposed to 5-HT($10^{-4}$g/ml), methysergide or phen`oxybenzamine. 5) Bretylium, as well as nethalide, abolished or remarkably reduced, in a few cases of the experiments, the inhibitory effect of the large dose of 5-HT on the distal part of the colon, whereas morphine did not affect it. 6) The ileal strips of the guinea pig also showed relaxation, as in the colonic strips, having been exposed to the large dose of 5-HT or phenoxybenzamine. This effect, however, was not obsered in the case of the rabbit ileum. 7) The property of the action-site of 5-HT in the tortoise intestine seemd to be different from the 5-HT receptors which have been revealed by several investigators. 8) Adrenergic component seemed to be participated in the inhibitory effect of 5-HT on the colon of the rat and rabbit.

최근 flexible OLED의 구동에 사용하기 위한 유기박막트랜지스터(Organic Thin Film Transistor, OTFT)의 연구에서는 용매에 용해되어 spin coating이 가능한 재료의 개발에 관심을 두고 있다. 현재 pentacene으로는 아직 spin coating으로 제작할 수 있는 상용화된 제품이 없고 spin coating이 가능한 활성층 물질(active material)로 P3HT가 쓰이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 용해 가능한 P3HT 활성층 물질과 여러 종류의 용해 가능한 게이트 절연물(gate insulator, Gl)을 사용하여 안정된 소자를 구현할 수 있는 공정을 개발하는 목적으로 metal-insulator-semironductor(MIS) 소자를 제작하여 C-V 특성을 측정하고 분석하였다. 먼저 7mm${\times}$7mm 크기의 pyrex glass 시편 위에 바닥 전극으로 $1600{\AA}$ Au을 증착하고 spin coating 방식을 이용하여 PVP, PVA, PVK, BCB, Pl의 5종류의 게이트 절연층을 각각 형성하였고 그 위에 같은 방법으로 P3HT를 코팅하였다. P3HT 코팅 시 bake 공정의 유무와 spin rpm의 변화에 따른 P3HT의 두께를 측정하였다. Gl의 종류별로 주파수에 따른 capatltancc를 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. C-V 측정 결과 PVP, PVA, PVK, BCB, Pl의 단위 면적당 capacitance 값은 각각 1.06, 2.73, 2.94, 3.43, $2.78nF/cm^2$로 측정되었다. Threshold voltage, $V_{th}$는 각각 -0.4, -0.7, -1.6, -0.1, -0.2V를 나타냈다. 주파수에 따른 capacitance 변화율을 측정한 결과 Gl 물질 모두 주파수가 높을수록 capacitance가 점점 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 1${\sim}$2nF 이내의 범위에서 작은 변화율만 나타냈다. P3HT의 두께와 bake 온도를 변화시켜 C-V 값을 측정한 결과 차이는 없었다. FE-SEM으로 관찰한 결과에서도 두께나 온도에 따른 P3HT의 표면 morphology 차이를 확인할 수 없었다. 본 연구에서 PVK와 P3HT의 조합이 수율(yield)면에서 가장 안정적이면서 $3.43\;nF/cm^2$의 가장 높은 capacitance 값을 나타내고 $V_{th}$ 값 또한 -1.6V로 가장 낮은 값을 보였다.

In the present study, effects of $\beta$-alanine, a known taurine antagonist for its structural similarity, on the adaptive regulation and kinetic behavior of the taurine transporter were investigated in the HT-29, human colon carcinoma cell line. Pretreatment of the cell with $\beta$-alanine(10mM) for varying periods from 3 to 30 hrs significantly reduced the taurine uptake compared to the value for control cells. This decrease in the taurine transporter activity was dependent on the incubation time with $\beta$-alanine, and the maximal down-regulation of the transporter activity was observed in cells pretreated with $\beta$-alanine for 24 hrs (25% of the control value, p<0.01). The taurine transporter appears to bind exclusively with $\beta$-alanine in the HT-29 cells since the same concentration of $\alpha$-alanine added in the culture medium for 24 hrs did not influence the taurine uptake. Kinetic analyses of the taurine transporter activity was performed in the HT-29 cell line with varying taurine concentration (5~60$\mu$M) in the uptake medium. Active taurine uptake was significantly lower in $\beta$-alanine pretreated cells compared to the value for control cells in the range of taurine concentration used in the experiment (p<0.001). The cells pretreated with $\beta$-alanine showed a 50% lower maximal velocity (Vmax, 1.7$\pm$2.0 nmole.mg $protein^{-1}$.$30min^{-1}$), and a 99% higher Michaelis constant (Km, 40.3$\pm$7.6$\mu$M) than the control values (3.3$\pm$1.9 nmole.mg $protein^{-1}$.$30min^{-1}$, and 20.3$\pm$2.1$\mu$M, respectively). These results on kinetic data suggest that $\beta$-alanine induced down-regulation of the taurine transporter activity was associated with decreases in both maximal velocity and affinity of the transporter.

Postbiotics are defined as probiotics inactivated by heat, ultraviolet radiation, sonication, and other physical or chemical stresses. Postbiotics are more stable than probiotics, and these properties are advantageous for food additives and pharmacological agents. This study investigated the immunostimulatory effects of heat-treated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LM1004 (HT-LM1004). Cellular fatty acid composition of L. plantarum LM1004 isolated form kimchi was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry detection system. The nitric oxide (NO) content was estimated using Griess reagent. Immunostimulatory cytokines were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Relative protein expressions were evaluated by western blotting. Phagocytosis was measured using enzyme-labelled Escherichia coli particles. L. plantarum LM1004 showed 7 kinds of cellular fatty acids including palmitic acid (C16:0). The HT-LM1004 induced release of NO and upregulated the inducible NO synthase in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 levels were also increased compared to control (non-treated macrophages). Furthermore, HT-LM1004 modulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) subfamilies including p38 MAPK, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase. Therefore, these immunostimulatory effects were attributed to the production of transcriptional factors, such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and the activator protein 1 family (AP-1). However, HT-LM1004 did not showed significant phagocytosis of RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Overall, HT-LM1004 stimulated MAPK/AP-1 and NF-κB expression, resulting in the release of NO and cytokines. These results will contribute to the development of diverse types of food and pharmacological products for immunostimulatory agents with postbiotics.

본 연구는 겨울과 봄철의 CO₂ 시비 토마토 온실에서 낮과 밤의 온도 변화에 따른 CO₂ 농도 변화를 구명하고 계산된 CO₂ 공급량을 비교하고자 수행하였다. 온실 내 CO₂ 농도는 2022년과 2023년의 겨울철 실험 온실에서 생육단계가 LAI 2.0인 대표적인 날들 중 누적광량 차이로 인한 평균 온도가 다른 날을 선정하여 분석하였다. 평균 온도 18℃ 이상의 경우(고온, HT), CO₂ 공급 시간대(10:00-13:00) 이후 13, 14, 15, 16시에 각각 31.7, 26.8, 23.8, 22.4℃일 때 CO₂ 농도는 459, 299, 275, 239µmol·mol^-1이었고 평균 온도 18℃ 이하의 경우(저온, LT), 22.0, 18.9, 15.0, 13.7℃일 때 각각 500, 368, 366, 364µmol·mol^-1으로 HT에서 CO₂ 감소량이 LT보다 유의적으로 높았다. 야간 CO₂ 농도는 HT의 경우 오후 6시(346µmol·mol^-1) 부터 서서히 증가되어 오전 3시(454µmol·mol^-1)에 가장 높았으며 9시간 동안 약 100µmol·mol^-1이 증가되어 시간당 약 11µmol·mol^-1이 증가되었고(토마토 240개체, 엽면적 330m²), LT에서는 그 증가폭이 낮았다. 봄철 CO₂ 시비 온실에서 CO₂ 시비 개시 직전(오전 7:30)에 측정된 CO₂ 농도는 야간온도가 15℃ 이상의 경우(HT)는 15℃ 이하의 경우(LT)보다 3-4배 높은 것으로 나타났으며 그날의 계산된 공급 CO₂ 시비량도 HT에서 적었다. 본 연구결과에서 야간 CO₂ 농도는 재배 시기에 따른 온도의 영향을 받으며, 야간에 증가된 CO₂는 광합성 작용의 주요 공급원이 된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이를 고려한 CO₂ 공급 모델식 개발이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

It has been known that clozapine is more selective mesolimbic dopamin $D_2$ receptor antagonist and related to 5-HT receptor. In this study, we wxamined the plasma homovanillic acid(HVA), serotonin(5-HT), and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid(5-HIM) levels in refractory schizophrenics during clozapine treatment. And we assessed the effects of clozapine on these plasma monoamine metabolites and their association with psychopathology and treatment response. Eight refractory schizophrenic patients(DSM-IV) have entered the study for 3 months during clozapine treatment. Patients were admitted to the inpatient sevice and withdrawn from all neuroleptics for 7-14 days but exceptionally occasional doses of lorazepam was given if needed for behavioral control. The dose of clozapine was titrated as tolerated to 800mg/day. The plasma HVA. 5-HIM and 5-HT levels were measured before treatment and following 2nd week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th during treatment. Psychopathology was assessed with Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and Positive and Negative Synrome Scale(PANSS) before and during clozapine treatment. During clozapine treatment, no statistically significant changes were found in plasma HVA, 5-HIM, 5-HT levels, and HVA/5-HIM ratio between baseline and following 2nd week, 4th week, 8th week, 12th week. However, the change in plasma 5-HIAA/5-HT ratio from baseline to 4th week was statistically significant. Generally, changes of plasma HVA, 5-HIAA, 5-HT levels and HVA/5-HIAA ratio were not associated with psychopathology but 5-HIAA was associated with in positive symptoms and general psychopathology of PANSS. These results suggest that clozapine has been found to have relatively weak dopaminergic blokade and stronger serotonergic antagonism.
