This paper is analyzed the charge trapping and electrical properties of 0(Oxide), NO(Nitrided oxide) and ONO(Reoxidized nitrided oxide) as dielectric films in MIS structures. We have processed bottom oxide and top oxide by the thermal method, and nitride(Si$_{3}N_{4}$) by the LPCVD(Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition) method on P-type(100) Silicon wafer. We have studied the charge trapping properties of the dielectrics by using a computer controlled DLTS system. All of the dielectric films are shown peak nearly at 300K. Those are bulk traps. Many trap densities which is detected in NO films, but traps. Many trap densities which is detected in NO films. Varing the nitride thickness, the trap densities of thinner nitride is decreased than the thicker nitride. Finally we have found that trap densities of ONO films is affected by nitride thickness.

Pseudomonas sp. DJ77로부터 클로닝된 glutathione S-transferase 유전자(phnC)의 염기서열을 결정하였다. 603bp의 open reading frame(ORF)이 존재하였고 개시코돈 앞에서 Shine-Dalgarno sequence를, 종결코돈 뒤에서는 terminator sequence를 발견하였다. phnC 유전자에서 만들어지는 phnC 단백질은 21,416 Da으로 SDS-polyacrylamide gel 전기영동 결과와 일치하였다. PhnC는 Bulkholderia cepacia LB400, Cycloclasticus oligotrophus RB1의 GST와 각각 53.7%, 49%의 높은 상동성을 나타냈다. 아미노산 서열의 상동성과 필수잔기들의 존재유무로 판단할 때 PhnC GST는 theta class GSTs와 진화적으로 유연관계가 높았지만 alpha, mu, pi, sigma class GSTs에서 구조적, 기능적으로 중요하다고 알려진 아미노산 잔기들이 PhnC GST에도 보존되어 있었다. 또한, phnC 유전자의 위치가 C. oligotrophus RB1, B. cepacia LB400 등의 GST 유전자 위치와 유사하다는 점에서 PhnC 효소는 난분해성 방향족 탄화수소의 분해에 관여하는 것으로 생각된다.

To investigate the ultrastructural features of rat back skin tumor induced by 7, 12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene(DMBA), morphological changes during carcinogenesis were undertaken by the light and the electron microscopes. On the light microscopic levels, dysplasia was observed at the 6th week of treatment with 0.5% DMBA, hyperplasia at the 8th week, and carcinoma in sitv or invasive carcinoma at the 12th week. In addition to those characteristics, papillomatosis was observed at the 18th week. Under the electron microscopy, intercellular spaces were enlarged in the early phase. Nucleolar enlargement, the increase of free ribosomes, the condensation of tonofibrils, and the irregular arrangement of desmosomes appeared at the 6th week of application. Thereafter, the degradation of desmosomes and the discontinuity of basal lamina were characterized. And then, epidermal cell processes were protruded toward the connective tissue at the site of discontinuity of basal lamina at the 12th week. At the 14th to 18th week, DMBA-induced fibrosarcomas or papillomas were observed.

Ginseng (the root of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer, Araliaceae) has been used for traditional medicine in China, Korea, Japan and other Asian countries. It is most often used as a general tonic, and it involves a wide range of pharmacological actions, such as antiaging, adaptogen-like effect to foreign deleterious infringement, immunoenhancement, antistress, antitumor, and antioxidant actions. Red ginseng showed anticarcinogenic activity against various chemical carcinogens in mouse and cancer-preventive effect of human being as on mice in experimental and epidemiological studies. In the present study, we have found the protective properties of red ginseng against vinyl carbamate (VC) which is the proximate carcinogen of ethyl carbamate and its ultimate carcinogenic epoxides. Red ginseng exhibited dose-dependent inhibition on the mutagenci activities of boty VC in the presence of S9 mix and vinyl carbamate epoxide (VCO) without metabolic activation in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535. Formation of DNA adducts from VCO was also attenuated in the presence of red ginseng. Oral administration of red ginseng prior to the topical application of each of the above carcinogens and TPA treatment resulted in significant reduction in both incidence and multiplicity of skin tumors in mice. These results indicate that red ginseng possesses a strong chemopreventive effect against mouse skin carcinogenesis induced by VC or VCO.

Austenite formation and Low temperatures mechanical properties of HSLA steel of different starting structures have been studied by intercritical annealing(IA). The different starting structures are: ferrite+pearlite(FP1), martensite(M1), cold worked ferrite+pearlite(FP2) and cold worked martensite(M2). In most cases tensile strength and elongation was increased by decreasing the testing temperatures regardless of the IA time. Tensile strength of the cold worked starting structures was higher than that of the non-cold worked starting structures. However not any noticeable difference in elongation was found between two cases. Low temperatures impact properties were affected by the starting structures. Charpy V-notch impact transition temperatures of the M-starting structures were around $-40^{\circ}C$, and those of the FP starting structures were around $-10^{\circ}C$. Impact energy was lower in the cold worked specimens than in the non-cold worked specimens at the same starting structures. DP structure obtained from the M-starting structure has shown superior low temperatures mechanical properties than the DP structure obtained from the FP-starting structure.

Cyclosporin-A(CsA)는 장기와 조직 이식에 따른 거부반응을 조절하기 위해 사용되는 면역억제제로, 이식의학의 발달과 더불어 사용량이 증가하고 있다. CsA의 부작용중의 하나인 치은과증식은 30-50%의 빈도로 발발하고 있다. 최근 macrolide 계열의 항생제인 azithromycin을 이용하여 이런 부작용을 억제시킨다는 임상 보고가 있어서, 이를 실험적으로 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 CsA를 투여한 적이 없는 환자에서 정상 치은조직을 채취, 치은섬유아세포를 배양하였다. 우선 CsA에 대한 치은섬유아세포의 반응을 보기 위해 다양한 농도($10^{-8}-10^{-10}$g/ml)로 처치하여, 세포 증식량과 교원질 합성량을 MTT assay와 Sirol Collagen Assay를 이용하여 측정하였다. 이에 반응을 보인 조건과 세포를 대상으로 다양한 농도($10^{-8}-10^{-10}$g/ml)의 azithromycin을 CsA와 동시 처치하여 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. CsA는 일부 치은섬유모세포의 증식을 증가시켰다. 그러나 Collagen 합성능에는 변화를 주지 않았다. 2. Azithromycin은 정상 치은섬유아세포의 증식능에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 3. Azithromycin은 CsA 에 반응을 보인 세포의 증식을 감소시켰으며, 이는 정상 수준과 유사하였다. 이상의 결과에서 azithromycin이 CsA에 의한 치은과증식 치료에 유익하다고 사료된다.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the normal morphogenesis, maintenance, and repair of matrix and also have important functions in pathologic conditions characterized by excessive degradation of extracellular matrix, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, periodontitis and in tumor invasion and metastasis. In this study, expression of MMP-1 and -2 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) was examined and compared with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and surgical findings. MMP mRNAs in the retrodiscal tissue samples were detected by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction. TMJ internal derangement (ID) was categorized as normal disc position, disc displacement with reduction, early stage of disc displacement without reduction (DDsR) and late stage of DDsR. TMJ osteoarthrosis (OA) was classified with normal, mild and advanced OA. The amount of synovial fluid collection was divided into not detected, small, large and extremely large amount on MR T2-weighted imaging. Perforation and adhesion were examined during open surgery of the TMJ. Six out of 37 samples were excluded because of little amount of extracted total mRNA. MMP-2 mRNA was detected whole joints, and so the MMP-2 mRNA seems to be expressed normally in retrodiscal tissue. However, MMP-1 mRNA was expressed in 8 of 31 joints. Frequencies of MMP-1 mRNA expression according to the TMJ IDs, amount of synovial fluid and surgical findings made no significant difference. MMP-1 mRNA was detected more frequently in OA groups (7/16 joints, 43.8%) than in normal bony structure group (1/15 joints, 6.7%). Expression of MMP-1 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue might be related with OA of the TMJ.

To find the monthly variation of kalopanaxsaponin contents in the leaves of Kalopanax pictus with thorns (KPT) and with no thorns (KPN), the leaves monthly collected from May to September were extracted with MeOH and then the kalopanaksaponin fractions were prepared. KPT collected on May showed the lowest saponin content of the KPTs whereas KPT on August exhibited the highest saponin content. From September, the saponin content in the loaves decreased. The highest saponin content was shown to be 7.3% in KPN collected on August. Evaluation of six kalopanaxsaponins A, I, J, B, H and K (KPA, KPI, KPJ, KPB, KPH, and KPK) were performed using TLC densitometer. In this measurement, considerably higher KPB and KPH, both hederagenin bisdesmosides, were found whereas very low contents In monodesrnosides KPI and KPJ were observed. In conclusion, it was shown that the leaves of KPN of August could be a biomaterial source for the kalopanaxsaponin fraction. It was also suggested that measurement of the weight of kalopanaxsaponin fraction and the content of KPB as the representative compound for kalopanaxsaponins will be used for the quantitative evaluation of the kalopanaxsaponins of K. pictus.
