Increasing evidences suggest that ischemia-induced vascular damage is an integral step in the cascade of the cellular and molecular events initiated by cerebral ischemia. In the present study, employing a mouse brain endothelioma-derived cell line, bEnd.3, and oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) as an in vitro stroke model, the role of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-${\kappa}B$) activation during ischemic injury was investigated. OGD was found to activate NF-${\kappa}B$ and to induce bEnd.3 cell death in a time-dependent manner. OGD phosphorylated neither 32 Ser nor 42 Tyr of $I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$. OGD did not change the amount of $I{\kappa}B{\alpha}$. The extents of OGD-induced cell death after 8 h, 10 h, 12 h and 14 h of OGD were 10%, 35%, 60% and 85%, respectively. Reperfusion following OGD did not cause additional cell death, indicating no reperfusion injury after ischemic insult in cerebral endothelial cells. Three known as NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitors, including pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) plus zinc, aspirin and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), inhibited OGD-induced NF-${\kappa}B$ activation and increased OGD-induced bEnd.3 cell death in a dose dependent manner. There were no changes in the protein levels of bcl-2, bax and p53 which are modulated by NF-${\kappa}B$ activity. These results suggest that NF-${\kappa}B$ activation might be a protective mechanism for OGD-induced cell death in bEnd.3.

$SF_6$와 $NF_3$는 디스플레이 장치의 제조공정 중 $SiN_x$박막을 건식식각공정에서 사용되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 이 두 가스에 대한 건식식각의 특성을 관찰하기 위해서 CCP-RIE를 이용하여 가스와 산소의 유량비($SF_6$/$O_2$>, $NF_3$/$O_2$), 압력, 전력 비(13.56 MHz/2 MHz)를 변화시키는 다양한 공정조건하에서 실험을 진행하였다. 이 실험에서 $NF_3$를 이용한 $SiN_x$ 박막 건식식각률이 $SF_6$를 이용한 건식식각률보다 모든 공정 조건하에서 높게 나타났다. 불소원자의 OES 강도와 V/I probe 를 이용하여 건식식각률과 비례하는 상관관계 변수를 발견하였고 이를 플라즈마 변수와 관련하여 해석하였다.

A series of N-substitutedaryl-3-phenylpropanamide derivatives were synthesized and their inhibitory activities on LPS-induced NF-$1{\kappa}B$ transcriptional activity on RAW 264.7 cells were evaluated. Cl substituted derivatives (1e, 1f) have shown more potent activities than parent hit compound KL-1156.

본 연구에서는 양액재배 시 발생되는 폐양액의 적절한 농업적 이용방안을 강구하기 위해 폐양액의 비료 효과시험, 토양컬럼 시험, 그리고 작물 재배시험을 수행하였다. 폐양액의 비료 효과시험은 무기질소를 기준으로 질소비료와 폐양액의 토양 처리에 따른 열무의 생육특성과 토양의 화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 폐양액 비료 효과시험과 작물 재배시험을 위한 토양에 대한 폐양액의 처리는 무처리; A, 질소비료 100%; B, 질소비료 70%+폐양액 30%; C, 질소비료 50%+폐양액 50%; D, 질소비료 30%+폐양액 70%; E 총 5개 처리구로 하였다. 토양컬럼 시험을 위한 토양에 대한 폐양액의 처리는 무처리, 질소비료 100%, 폐양액 50%+질소비료 50% 3개 처리구로 하였다. 폐양액의 화학성은 pH 6.0, EC 2.4dS·m^-1, 총인(T-P) 28mg·L^-1, 암모늄태 질소(NH₄-N) 5.0mg·L^-1, 질산태 질소(NO₃-N) 301mg·L^-1로 나타났다. 토양의 화학성은 pH 5.51, EC 0.31dS·m^-1, 유기물 2.08g·kg^-1, 질산태 질소 9.64mg·kg^-1, 암모늄태 질소 3.20mg·kg^-1으로 나타났다. 질소비료 50% 이하와 폐양액 50% 이상의 비율이 열무 생육에 효과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 폐양액을 질소비료와 함께 혼합하여 적용한 C-E 처리구에서 토양의 이화학성은 질소비료만을 적용한 B 처리구와 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 토양컬럼 시험 결과 질소비료 100%와 폐양액 50%+질산비료 50% 처리구의 NO₃와 NH₄의 농도는 큰차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 폐양액을 화학비료의 표준시비량을 기준으로 이용하여 토양에 처리하면 토양 내 질소 성분의 이동과 주변의 영향은 일반 화학비료와 유사하게 나타나는 것으로 판단된다. 열무 토경재배에 폐양액과 질소비료를 혼합하여 사용하면 폐양액의 재이용으로 환경적 부담도 줄일 수 있고, 질소비료의 사용량도 줄일 수 있어 농가에 경제적 부담 감소와 열무 생산량 증대 효과도 기대할 수 있다.

This study is aimed at the development of a runoff forecasting model by using the Fuzzy inference system and Neural Network model to solve the uncertainties occurring in the process of rainfall-runoff modeling and improve the modeling accuracy of the stream runoff forecasting. The Neuro-Fuzzy (NF) model were used in this study. The NF model, recently received a great deal of attention, improve the existing Neural Networks by the aid of the Fuzzy theory applied to each node. The study area is the downstreams of Naeseung-chun. Therefore, time-dependent data was obtained from the Wolpo water level gauging station. 11 and 2 out of total 13 flood events were selected for the training and testing set of model respectively. The schematic diagram method and the statistical analysis are conducted to evaluate the feasibility of rainfall-runoff modeling. The model accuracy was rapidly decreased as the forecasting time became longer. The NF model can give accurate runoff forecasts up to 4 hours ahead in standard above the Determination coefficient $(R^2)$ 0.7. In the comparison of the runoff forecasting using the NF and TANK models, characteristics of peak runoff in the TANK model was higher than ones in the NF models, but peak values of hydrograph in the NF models were similar.

Nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$) has been considered as one of the major targets for therapeutic agents of diverse human diseases. In the previous studies, 6-hydroxy-7-methoxychroman-2-carboxylic acid N-phenylamide (KL-1156) and chroman-2-carboxylic acid N-(4-chlorophenyl)amide were identified as good inhibitors of NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. In this continuous study, we describe the synthesis and NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitory activities of chroman derivatives containing N-heteroaryl groups for exploration of SAR (structure-activity relationship). In addition, inhibitory effects of cell proliferation are evaluated against human cancer cell lines (NCI-H23 and PC-3).

It was previously found that melittin inhibited $NF-{\kappa}B$ activity by reacting with signal molecules of $NF-{\kappa}B$ which is critical contributor in cancer cell growth by induction of apoptotic cell death. We here investigated whether melittin inhibits cell growth of human prostate cancer cells through induction of apoptotic cell death, and the possible signal pathways. Melittin ($0{\sim}1\;{\mu}g/ml$) inhibited prostate cancer cell growth in a dose dependent manner. Conversely related to the growth inhibitory effect, melittin increased the induction of apoptotic cell death in a dose dependent manner. Melittin also inhibited DNA binding activity of $NF-{\kappa}B$, an anti-apoptotic transcriptional factor. Consistent with the induction of apoptotic cell death and inhibition of $NF-{\kappa}B$, melittin increased the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins caspase-3, and Bax but down-regulated anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. These findings suggest that melittin could inhibit prostate cancer cell growth, and this effect may be related with the induction of apoptotic cell death via inactivation of $NF-{\kappa}B$.

The present study showed that silymarin, a polyphenolic flavonoid isolated from milk thistle (Silybum marianum), inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced morphological changes in the mouse RAW264.7 macrophage cell line. We also showed that silymarin inhibited the nuclear translocation and transactivation activities of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-${\kappa}B$), which is important for macrophage activation-associated changes in cell morphology and gene expression of inflammatory cytokines. BAY-11-7085, an NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitor, abrogated LPS-induced morphological changes and NO production, similar to silymarin. Treatment of RAW264.7 cells with silymarin also inhibited LPS-stimulated activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). Collectively, these experiments demonstrated that silymarin inhibited LPS-induced morphological changes in the RAW264.7 mouse macrophage cell line. Our findings indicated that the most likely mechanism underlying this biological effect involved inhibition of the MAPK pathway and NF-${\kappa}B$ activity. Inhibition of these activities by silymarin is a potentially useful strategy for the treatment of inflammation because of the critical roles played by MAPK and NF-${\kappa}B$ in mediating inflammatory responses in macrophages.

This work aimed to elucidate the anti-inflammatory effects of ethyl acetate fraction from Cnidium officinale Makino with a cellular system of LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 and THP-1 cells. Some key pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediators including NO, iNOS, $PGE_2$, COX-2, TNF-${\alpha}$, NF-${\kappa}B$ p50 and NF-${\kappa}B$ p65 were studied by sandwich ELISA and western blot analysis. Ethyl acetate fraction could significantly inhibit the production of NO, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, iNOS and COX-2 in LPS-stimulated cell than that of single LPS-stimulated. And ethyl acetate fraction suppresses the activation of NF-${\kappa}B$ p50 and NF-${\kappa}B$ p65. All the results showed that ethyl acetate fraction had a good anti-inflammatory effect on LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 and THP-1 cells. Taken together, the anti-inflammatory actions of ethyl acetate fraction from Cnidium officinale Makino might be due to the down-regulation of NO, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, iNOS and COX-2 via the suppression of NF-${\kappa}B$ activation.
