생쥐 배반포로부터 내부세포괴(inner cell mass, ICM)를 outgrowth로 분리하여 증식 시킴으로써 배아주(embryonic stem, ES)세포를 확립하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 과배란처리와 교미에 의해 생산된 ICR 생쥐의 3.5일 배반포를 sDMEM내의 배아성 섬유아단흥배양층에 배양하여 ICM세포의 증식을 조사한 결과, 3.5일부터 분리한 ICM세포들은 배양 7, 8일에 각각 1,500 및 3,200세포의 미분화세포로 증식하였다. 이들 세포의 계대배양에 의해 잠정적인 ES세포 colony를 얻었으며 10회의 계대배양후에도 그 형태가 변하지 않았다. 이들 세포는 다능성의 분화능을 보여 전형적인 ES세포 형태를 보였다. 이 같은 결과는 ICR배반포에서 outgrowth로 분리한 ICM으로부터 ES세포 확립이 가능함을 보여준 것이다.

In order to investigate the retinoic acid indticed-differentiation of F9 teratocarcinoma stem cell, we have analyzed the change of cell morphology and laminin expression after exposure to retinoic add and cyclic AMP. It is shown that undifferentiated F9 stem cells grow as closely packed colonies, and it is difficult to distinguish cell-cell boundaries. After retinoic add and dibutyryl cyclic AMP treatment, F9 cells assume a flat morphology characterized by perinuclear granules and arrest growth. According to Northern blot analysis, laminin expression was increased markedly after retinoic acid treatment. Laminin Bi gene expression was increased at least 30-fold and laminin B2 gene expression was increased approximately 20-fold during differentiation process. Employing immunofluoresence analysis, it was proved that the synthesis of laminin protein was low level in F9 stem cell whereas it became high level in retinoic acid treated F9 cell and the laminin protein was largely accumulated in the cell surface. Our results suggest that induction of laminin Bi and B2 genes m F9 cells is retinoic acid-mediated control, and morphological change and differentiation of F9 cells might be associated with laminin gene expression.

Reactivation of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) from latency is often fatal to immunocompromised individuals. To understand the effect of HCMV on human monocytes where HCMV establishes latency, two human monocyte cell lines at different stages in differentiation, THP-1 and HL-60 were infected with HCMV. While the viability and morphology of HL-60 cells were not significantly affected by HCMV, the viability of THP-1 cells was dramatically decreased by HCMV infection. THP-1 cells infected with HCMV became aggregated and adhered to the surface of culture dishes, probably due to the increased expression of adherence molecules CD11b on the infected THP-1 cells. THP-1 cells established a latent HCMV infection were induced to differentiate by treatment with TPA and hydrocortisone. Recovery of infectious HCMV from the culture supernatant of differentiated THP-1 cells was dependent on the time of induction of differentiation after HCMV infection. Thus, in vitro model of reactivation of HCMV from latently infected monocytes was established.

The purpose of this study was carried out to investigate the effects of plant growth regulators on in vitro propagation of Liliem cernum Komarov. Small bulblets were poliferated from callus explants after 2 weeks and leaf, root and bulb were formed after 4 weeks culture. Leaf differentiation was promoted vigorously by the combination of TDZ 0.1 mg/L and NAA 0.01 mg/L(87.5%). The rate of root differentiation was the greatest at BA 0.2 mg/L alone(81.8%). The rate of callus formation was the high in medium containing TDZ. The number of bulblets and leaves formed in bulb scales was the greatest at TDZ 0.1 mg/L(5.7). Also, the longest length of total length, leaf and root length were in Zeatin 1.0 mg/L + NAA 0.1 mg/L(10.5 cm). However the longest bulblet was in TDZ 0.1 mg/L(1.4 cm).

This study was carried out to determine the effects of plant growth regulators on organogenesis from Cymbidium kanran and Cymbidium hybrida. Optimal rhizome formation from Cymbidium kanran was obtained on MS medium with 10 ppm kinetin+2 ppm NAA. and optimal protocorm formation from Cymbidium hybrida was obtained on MS medium with 10 ppm kinetin+0.05 ppm NAA. However, in this study the optimal media for the callus induction from both explants was not identified. Optimal shoot induction from rhizome of Cymbidium kanran was obtained on MS medium with 10 ppm BA+2 ppm NAA and 5 ppm BA+2 ppm NAA. Optimal shoot induction from protocorm of Cymbidium hybrida was obtained on MS medium with 10 ppm kinetin+2 ppm NAA.

The effect of medium composition on PLB formation and multiplication and shoot regeneration was studied to establish the micropropagation system of the tropical orchid Phalaenopsis. The highest frequence of PLB formation resulted from the VW medium with 1.2 times ion concentration, 1% sucrose, 1.5g/L PVP or 2.5g/L active charcoal, apple and potato extract and 4g/L gellan gum. The highest ratio of PLB multiplication was obtained from the VW medium with 2% sucrose, apple and potato extract and cotton plate. The shoot regeneration was the most effective with the hyponex medium with 3% apple, 3% potato and 4% banana extract.

This experiment was conducted to identify the optimal in vitro propagation condition of Cnidii rhizoma (Cnidium officinale Makino). It was effective to reduce contamination and improve regeneration of shoot when shoot tips taken in July were cultured in 1/2 strength Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 500 mg/L carbenicillin disodium 1.0 mg/L BA and 1.0mg/L $GA_3$followed by surface sterilization of explant source in solution of 1% sodium hypochlorite for 20 minutes. When shoot tips were 쳐cultured in 1/2 strength MS medium with 0.5 mg/L BA and 60 g/L sucrose, shoot elogation and subsequent multiplication of the formed shoot were favorable than in other media. Regenerants were well rooted in 1/2 strength MS medium containing 3.0 mg/L NAA.

전반적인 피부세포의 생리적 지능 자하로 인한 자연노화와 더불어, 여러 피부 스트레스 요인들이 다양하게 작용하여 발생하는 외인성노화를 방지하거나, 개선할 수 있는 항노화소재로서의 개발 가능성을 알아보기 위해, 예로부터 항염활성이 있다고 알려진 oleanolic acid(OA)를 포함한 ursolic acid(UA), betulin, betulinic acid(BA) 등의 triterpenoids가 어떻게 피부에서의 항노화 활성을 나타내는지를 알아보았다. 시험 결과, OA는 자외선에 의한 각질형성세포에서의 PGE$_2$ 생성과 섬유아세포(NHF)에 의한 matrix metalloproteinase-1(MMP-1) 분비를 억제하였다. 그리고, NHF의 procollagen 생성을 촉진하였으며, 이런 procollagen 생성촉진활성이 in vivo에서도 발현되는 것을 무모생쥐의 실험을 통해서 확인하였다. 또한 OA는 각질세포의 증식과 분화를 촉진하여 표피세포로 하여금 세라마이므와 필라그린 생성을 증가시키도록 하는 작용도 있음을 보여주었다. 더불어 실험한 UA, betulin, BA 들은 비록, betulin, BA의 경우 세포 독성이 다른 물질 들에 비해 높았고, UA가 각질세포의 분화를 오히려 억제하는 양상을 보이기는 했지만, 대부분의 기능은 OA와 유사하였다. 피부세포보호작용과 진피 기질물질에 대한 작용, 그리고, 표피의 장벽기능과 보습기능에 대해 시험한 본 연구는, 식물성분인 triterpenoids가 피부를 위한 항노화소재로서의 개발 가능성이 있음을 확인하는 계기가 되었고, 그 중에서도 OA가 보다 우수한 항노화 소재가 될 수 있음을 시사하고 있다.

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a plasticize. known as one of endocrine disruptors. The present study was carried out to investigate the ultrastructural changes of prepubertal rat testis after oral administration of DEHP in dosages of 1 g/kg, 3 g/kg or 5g/kg in 0.5 ml of corn oil daily for a week. This study revealed the DEHP inhibited the development of seminiferous tubules and induced structural changes on various cell types of the rat testis. Leydig cells, Sertoli cells and the developing germ cells seemed to be impaired their differentiations in terms of the structural changes of cell organelles. The increase of heterochromatin in amount were common features in all 3 cell types. In addition, the Leydig cells were characterized by the increases in number and size of lysosomes and the scantiness of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The Sertoli cells became irregular in nuclear envelope and the cytoplasm decreased, but the number of lysosomes and vacuoles seemed to be increased. There were some indications of necrosis of the germ cells, such as vacuolized nucleus and segregated nucleolus. These detrimental effects of DEHP on the rat testis were dose dependent and suppressed spermatogenesis decreasing developing germ cells in number and appearances. The effect of DEHP on ultrastructure of rat testis, as its known physiological functions, seems come from the decreased level of testosterone by Leydig cells, followed by the abnomalities of Sertoli cells and the germ cells.
