In this note we construct an anti-symplectic involution on the non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold which is constructed by Thurston and show that the quotient of the Thurston's 4-manifold is not symplectic. Also we construct a non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold using the Gomph's symplectic sum method and an anti-symplectic involution on the non-$K\ddot{a}hler$, symplectic 4-manifold.

2-( β-Alkoxyvinyl)-4-(1-hydroxyalkyl)pyrroles (14) were synthesized from 4-acylpyrrole-2-carboxylates (8) by sequential reduction of their acyl and alkoxycarbonyl groups to give 4-(1-hydroxyalkyl)pyrrole-2-carbalde-hydes (13) followed by Wittig reaction of the aldehydes with the ylide of alkoxymethylphosphonium chloride. Diels-Alder reaction of 2-(β-alkoxyvinyl)-4-(1-hydroxyalkyl)pyrroles with trans-methyl β-nitroacrylate gave 6-alkoxy-3-(1-hydroxyalkyl)-5-nitro-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole-4-carboxylates (3).

Three inherently chiral calix[4]arenes 3-5 were synthesized as racemate starting from the ethylation at 1.3-distal hydroxy groups of calix[4]arene 2 which has two phenyl groups at upper rim in AABB fashion, and then two remaining hydroxy groups were acetylated by treatment with acetyl chloride in the presence of NaH to produce calix[4]arene 4. Treatment of 4 with AlCl3 under Fries rearrangement conditions, only one acetyl group was rearranged to the para-position to afford calix[4]arene 5 with AABC substitution pattern at the upper rim of calix. The structure of chiral calix[4]arenes were confirmed based on NMR and massspectra.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-caner effect of cobrotoxin on the prostatic cancer cell line (PC-3).The goal of study is to ascertain whether cobrotoxin inhibits tile cell growth and cell cycle of PC-3, or the expression of relative genes and whether the regression of PC-3 cell growth is due to cell death or the expression of gene related to apoptosis. Methods : After the treatment of Pc-3 cells with cobrotoxin, we performed 형광현미경, MTT assay, Western blotting, Flow cytometry, PAGE electrophoresis and Surface plasmon resonance analysis to identify the cell viability, cell death, apoptosis, the changes of cell cycle and the related protein, Adk, MAP kinase. Results : 1. Compared with normal cell, the inhibition of cell growth reduced in proportion with the dose of cobrotoxin(0-16nM) in PC-3. 2. Cell viabilities of 0.1, 1, 4nM cobrotoxin treatment were decreased and those of 8, 16nM were decreased significantly. 3. S phase of cell cycle was decreased at the group of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16nM cobrotoxin, but M phase was increased at 0.1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16nM cobrotoxin. 4. Cox-2 expression after cobrotoxin was peaked at 12hours and was decreased significantly after 6, 12, 24 hours. 5. The expression of Cdk4 was decreased dose-dependently at 1, 2, 4, 8nM cobrotoxin and was decreased siginificantly at 4, 8nM Cyclin D1 was decreased at 1, 2, 4, 8nM and Cycline E was not changed. Cycline B was decreased at 1, 2, 4, 8nM dose-dependently and was decreased siginificanlty at 2, 4, 8nM. 6. The expression of Akt was decreased at 1, 2, 4, 8nM dose-dependently and was decreased significantly at 2, 4, 8nM. 7. ERK was increased at 1, 2nM and decreased at 4, 8nM, p-ERK was increased at 1, 2, 4 nM, but decreased at 8nM. JNK and p-JNK were increased at 1, 4, 8 nM. p38 was increased at 2nM p-p38 was increased at lnM but decreased significantly at 2, 4, 8nM. 8. The nucli of normal cells were stained round and homogenous in DAPI staining, but those of PC-3 were stained condense and splitted. Apoptosis was increased dose-dependently at 2, 4, 8, 16nM and increased significantly at 2, 4, 8, 16nM. 9. Bax wasn`t changed at 1, 2, 4, 8nM and Bcl-2 was decreased significantly at 1, 2, 4, 8nM. Caspase 3 and 9 weren`t changed at 1, 2, 4nM but were decreased significantly at 8nM. Conclusions : These results indicate that cobrotoxin inhibits the growth of prostate Cancer cells, has anti-cancer effects by inducing apoptosis.

Various rates of 2, 4-2 were sprayed on 2 and 3 year old ginseng plants as fouler spray to define the critical concentration. No apparent plant injury was noticeable for those ginseng plants when application concentration of 2, 4-D doubled the recommended dosage (70 mil 10a). Neither abnormal fouler change occurred nor any inhibition in leaf and stem growth was resulted for the plants treated with 2, 4-D concentrated two times of the recommended dosage. When the rates of 2, 4-D application were increased greater than this level, injury ratings increased linearly with the rates of 2, 4-D application and plant growth was inhibited. Ethylene gas was not produced from the ginseng plant treated with 2 times concentrated 2, 4-D, how- ever the ginseng plants produced 0.03 to 0.09 ppd ethylene gas when the rate of application were increased 3 and 4 times, respectively. On the other hand the soybean treated with the recommended amount of 2i-D produced ethylene gas of 10-20 times higher compared with ginseng plants and died. Photosynthesis ability of the ginseng leaf was significantly decreased by 2, 4.D fouler application but it was recovered 4 weeks after 2, 4-D fouler treatment. The herbicide 2, 4-D was appreciated to 2, 3 and 4 years old ginseng plants as fouler spray with the rates of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 times of the recommended dosage to define the effects of 2, 4-D on the plant growth and root yield of the ginseng, There were no significant differences in the leaf and stem growth between untreated and 2, 4-D treated plant. Berry maturing of 3 and 4 year old ginseng was not influenced by 2, 4-D. The root weight of 4 years old ginseng plant was not reduced b). application of 2, 4-D concentrated 2 times of the recommended dosage. Application time of the herbicide 2, 4-D had no effects on the leaf or stem growth of 2, 3 and 4 year old year old ginseng plants. When the ginseng seedling was treated with 2, 4-D, detrimental phenomena as stem bending and deceleration of seedling leaf margin occurred, but stem bending was recovere d in a few day.

To evaluate an effect of xanthine oxidase(XO) reaction system on the carbon tetrachloride($CCl_4$) metabolism, $CCl_4$ was given twice at 0.1ml/100g body wt. at intervals of 18 hour to the rats and those pretreated with allopurinol (50mg/kg. body wt.). The influence of XO on the metabolism of $CCl_4$ was focused on the degree of liver damage and the activities of a $CCl_4$ metabolizing marker enzyme, glucose-6-phosphatase. The increasing rate of liver weight per body weight and the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase to the control group were more decreased in allopurinol-pretreated rats than in those treated with $CCl_4$ alone. The liver XO activities were more increased in $CCl_4$-treated rats than the control group and the $CCl_4$-treated rats pretreated with allopurinol showed a decreased activities of XO compared to the $CCl_4$-treated rats. The type conversion (type D --> type O) rate was more decreased tendency in allopurinol pretreated rats than those treated $CCl_4$ alone. In dialyzed liver enzyme preparations, all of the xanthine oxidase activities: $CCl_4$-treated, allopurinol and $CCl_4$-treated rats pretreated with allopurinol showed the more increased Vmax value than the control group, but similar Km value. Moreover, $CCl_4$-treated rats pretreated with allopurinol showed the more increased Vmax value than the group treated with $CCl_4$ alone. In conclusion, it can not be negate the possibility of metabolism of $CCl_4$ by the xanthine oxidase enzyme system.

Exchange reaction mechanisms of the Pb(II) ion for the complexes between Pb(II) ion and nitrogen oxygen donor macrocyclic ligands, such as 1,13-diaza-3,4 : $1011-dibenzo-59-dioxacyclohexa-decane(NtnOtnH_4)$, 1,15-diaza-3,4 : $1213-dibenzo-5811-trioxacycloheptadecane(NenOdienH_4)$, and 1,15-diaza-3,4 : $1213-dibenzo-5811-trioxacyclooctadecane(NtnOdienH_4)$, were studied by $^{207}Pb-NMR$ spectroscopy in N,N'-dimethylformamide(DMF) solutions. The associative-dissociative mechanism dominated in $NtnOtnH_4-Pb(II)$ and $NtnOdienH_4-Pb(II)$ system. For $NenOdienH_4-Pb(II)$ system, the bimolecular exchange mechanism prevailed below $-5^{\circ}C$, and both bimolecular exchange and associative-dissociative mechanism dominated above $+5^{\circ}C.$ The order of activation energies for dissociation was $NtnOdienH_4\;<\;NtnOtnH_4\;<\;NenOdienH_4$ which was reverse to the order of stabilities.
