최근 고기능성 화장품이 출시되면서 기능성 원료가 빛, 열, 산소에 매우 불안정하여 다양한 방법으로 안정성을 높이려고 연구되어 지고 있다. 특히, 카테킨은 주름 개선에 탁월한 원료이지만 빛, 열, 산소에 매우 불안정하다. 본 연구에서는 카테킨을 3Dimension화 하여 안정성 및 피부 침투를 높였다. 1 dimension으로 sol-gel method로 실리카를 다공성으로 만들어서 다공성 부문에 카테킨을 흡착시킨다. 2 dimension으로 다공성 실리카에 흡착디어진 카테킨을 non-phospholipid 베지클을 이용하여 solid lipid nanoparticle(SLN)을 만든다. 마지막으로 3dimension은 SLN되어진 카테킨을 skin lipid matrix를 이용하여 lameller phase self organization시킨다. 3 Dimension-카테킨은 일반적인 리포좀에 비해 빛과 열에 대한 color 안정성을 chromameter로 측정한 결과 5-10배 더 안정하였으며, HPLC 분석 결과 카테킨의 생존율이 3-5배 더 개선되었다. 또한 penetration effect를 측정한 결과 일반 리포좀보다 더 깊게 침투되었다. Wrinkle reduction effect를 한달 후에 측정한 결과 일반 리포좀보다 주름이 현저하게 감소되었다. 이러한 여러 가지 실험을 위해서 Laser light scattering system, cryo-SEM, chroma meter, HPLC, image analyzer, microfludizer 등을 사용하였다.

CT 촬영 장치를 기반으로 한 MAGAT (Methacrylic Acid, Gelatin gel And THPC) 정상 산소 중합체 겔 선량계의 화합물 조성비와 CT 영상 스캔 인자의 변화에 따른 선량 반응성을 평가하였다. 다양한 농도의 메타크릴산(MAA, MethAcrylic Acid)과 젤라틴을 조성하여 MAGAT 선량계를 제작하고 20 Gy까지의 방사선을 조사하였다. 조사된 겔 선량계는 CT 촬영 장치(Brilliance Big bore scanner, Phillps, Netherlands)를 이용하여 다양한 스캔 인자(관전압, 관전류, 단면두께)로 같은 위치에서 20회까지의 CT 영상을 획득하였다. 획득된 영상으로 $N_{CT}$-선량 반응곡선($N_{CT}$-dose response), 선량 감도(dose sensitivity), 선량 분해능(dose resolution)을 측정, 평가하였다. 각 조성비 별 MAGAT 선량계의 $N_{CT}$-선량 반응곡선에서 메타크릴산과 젤라틴의 양이 증가함에 따라 기울기와 절편이 증가하였다. 선량 감도는 $0.338{\pm}0.08$에서 $0.859{\pm}0.1$까지 나타났고 메타크릴산이 증가, 젤라틴이 감소할수록 증가하였으나 그 변화는 메타크릴산 농도의 증가에 따라 감도가 증가되는 것에 비해 아주 작은 변화를 보였다. 선량 분해능은 약 2.6에서 6 Gy까지 다양하게 나타났으며 감도와 영상 내의 노이즈에 의해 큰 변화를 보였다. 영상 스캔 인자의 변화에 대한 반응곡선은 관전압, 관전류, 단면두께의 변화에 따른 곡선의 기울기와 감도는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았으나 영상 내의 노이즈(평균 CT number의 표준편차)는 위의 3개의 인자가 증가할수록 감소함을 보였다. 본 연구는 CT 촬영장치를 이용한 MAGAT 중합체 겔의 선량 반응성을 평가하여 적정한 조성비와 스캔 인자를 얻을 수 있었으며 CT를 기반으로 한 3차원 선량계를 간단하고 효율적으로 임상에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Objective: To explore the differential protein expression profile in EC304 gastric cancer cells induced by alphastatin. Methods: Cultured EC304 cells in the exponential phase of growth were randomly divided into alphastatin and control groups. Total proteins were extracted and the two dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) technique was applied to analyze differences in expression with ImageMaster 2D Platinum 5.0 software. Proteins were identified using the MASCOT database and selected differently expressed proteins were characterised by western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results: $1350{\pm}90$ protein spots were detected by the ImageMaster software in the 2-DE gel images from the control and alphastatin groups. The match rate was about 72-80% for the spectrum profiles, with 29 significantly different protein spots being identified, 10 upregulated, 16 downregulated, two new and one lost. The MASCOT search scores were 64-666 and the peptide matching numbers were 3-27 with sequence coverage of 8-62%. Twenty-three proteins were checked by mass spectrometry, including decrease in Nm23 and profilin-2 isoform b associated with the regulation of actin multimerisation induced by extracellular signals. Conclusion: The proteome in EC304 cells is dramatically altered by alphastatin, which appears to play an important role in modulating cellular activity and anti-angiogenesis by regulating protein expression and signal transduction pathways through Nm23 and profilin-2 isoform b, providing new research directions for anti-angiogenic therapy of gastric cancer.

In the post-genome era, analysis of the cellular transcriptome using microarray or the cellular proteome using a 2-D gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry are most widely used. Stroke is one of the most important causes of death along with cancer and cardiac disease. When pathological change of cells in developed from cerebral ischemia accompanied by stroke administration of neuroprotective drugs before stroke can decreases the degeneration of neuronal cells. The purpose of the present study was to assess the neuroprotective effect and protein expression after administration of P004, middle cerebral artery model of cerebral ischemia in rats. SD rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion. P004 (1,000 mg/kg) was administered 2 times at 0, 90 minutes after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). Rats were killed at 48 hours, and infarct area and volume were determined by histology and computerized image analysis. We investigated the protein expression profile on the global ischemia induced by MCAo. This proteomic analysis enable us to identify several proteins differently expressed in infarct brain tissue. The aims of this study were to do investigation comparing the neuroprotection activities of P004 and to understand the mechanism of acted as neuroprotective drug.

Streptococcus mutans, one of a major causal agents of dental caries, is component of the dental plaque and produces various organic acids such as lactic acid as the end-product of glycolysis. In this study, we isolated S. mutans from Korean children with caries and also investigated the expression of protein under acid stress. S. mutans was identified at the species level using a 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing comparison method. The primer specificity was tested on eleven S. mutans strains isolated from Korean children with caries. The data showed that eleven strains are S. mutans. At treatment of concentration of 20 mM lactic acid in the mid-log phage, K-7 exhibited the highest maximum culture OD compared with those of other groups. As a consequence, we examined the expression of protein under 20 mM lactic acid stress using S. mutans K-7. The results of 2D gel electrophoresis by image analysis showed that thirteen proteins are up-regulated under the stress. Further study is being focused on amino acid analysis by mass spectrometry in order to analyze those spots.

The breeding of yaks is highly seasonal, there are many crucial proteins involved in the reproduction control program, especially in follicular development. In order to isolate differential proteins between mature and immature follicular fluid (FF) of yak, the FF from yak follicles with different sizes were sampled respectively, and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) of the proteins was carried out. After silver staining, the Image Master 2D platinum software was used for protein analysis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) was performed for differential protein identification. The expression level of transferrin and enolase superfamily member 1 (ENOSF1) was determined by Western blotting for verification analysis. The results showed that 2-DE obtained an electrophoresis map of proteins from mature and immature yak FF with high resolution and repeatability. A comparison of protein profiles identified 12 differently expressed proteins, out of which 10 of them were upregulated while 2 were downregulated. Western blotting showed that the expression of transferrin and ENOSF1 was enhanced with follicular development. Both the obtained protein profiles and the differently expressed proteins identified in this study provided experimental data related to follicular development during yak breeding seasons. This study also laid the foundation for understanding the microenvironment during oocyte development.
