환경 스트레스 신호 인지부터 스트레스 반응 유전자의 발현에 이르는 신호전달 네트워크에 있어서, 스트레스 반응 프로모터의 cis-조절 요소와 거기에 결합하는 다양한 전사인자는 환경 스트레스에 대한 식물의 적응을 조절한다. 애기장대 AP2/ERF 전사인자 패밀리 중 그룹 VII ERF는 RAP2.12, RAP2.2, RAP2.3, AtERF73/HRE1, AtERF71/HRE2 유전자를 포함하며, 저산소 스트레스 반응에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 HRE1 프로모터의 저산소 반응 부위를 동정하였다. 이를 위해 1,000 bp, 800 bp, 600 bp, 400 bp, 200 bp, 100 bp, 그리고 50 bp HRE1 프로모터 부위를 포함하는 벡터를 제작하여 프로모 터 활성을 분석한 결과, -200에서 -100 프로모터 부위가 HRE1의 저산소 반응에서 중요함을 확인하였다. HRE1의 -200에서 -100 프로모터 부위에는 저산소 반응 cis-조절 요소로 알려진 ERF-결합 부위와 DOF-결합 부위가 존재하는데, 이는 HRE1의 발현이 ERF 전사인자와 DOF 전사인자에 의해 조절될 수 있음을 시사한다. 전체적으로, 본 연구를 통해 HRE1 의 저산소 스트레스 반응에는 -200에서 -100 프로모터 부위에 존재하는 cis-조절 요소가 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 확인하였다.

Objectives: Sunghyangjunggisan (SHJS) is a commonly prescribed drug with a wide neuropharmacological spectrum. The water extracts of SHJS were found to be protective against neurotoxicity elicited by deprivation of serum and glucose. Methods: The morphological examination and Hoechst staining of nucleus also clearly showed that the extracts attenuated the cell shrinkage, membrane blebbing, representing typical neuronal apoptotic phenomena and nucleosome-sized fragmentation under the microscope in PC 12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. Results: Activation of protein kinase A (PKA) with dibutyl-cAMP and forskolin also protected during glucose deprivation, although it was not additive with the effect provided by phorbol ester. Interestingly, treatment with the protein kinase A inhibitor, KT5720, was not neuroprotective in the presence of SHJS. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to characterize the neuroprotective binding of nuclear proteins to consensus sequences for AP-l, nuclear factor kappa B ($NF-{\kappa}B$) after glucose deprivation. When PC 12 cells are induced to undergo apoptosis by serum deprivation, AP-l and $NF-{\kappa}B$ DNA binding activity transiently increases to a slight degree. This stimulation is blocked by the water extracts of SHJS. The site of action of the drugs appeared to involve specific inhibition of AP-1 and nuclear factor kB binding activity. Conclusions: Taken together, these results suggested the possibility that the extracts of SHJS might provide a neurotrophic-like activity in PC 12 cells.

The endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) to the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) has recently been considered a safer alternative and less invasive approach than the traditional transoral approach because the complications associated with the latter are avoided or minimized. Here, we present two challenging cases of CVJ pathologies. The first case involved os odontoideum associated with anterior displacement of the occipitocervical junction where the EEA was used, followed by C0-C1-C2 fusion using a posterior approach to decompress the CVJ, and was complicated by rhinorrhea and Candida albicans meningitis. The second case involved basilar invagination with syringomyelia previously treated using a posterior approach, where aggravation of neuropathic symptoms required combined treatment with EEA and occipitocervical fusion of C0-C2-C3-C4, with the postoperative course challenged by operative site infection requiring drainage with debridement and antibiotic therapy. The EEA is an alternative approach for accessing the CVJ in well-selected patients. Knowledge of EEA complications is crucial for the optimal care of patients.

"Phosphotriester Method"에 따라 모형 oligodeoxyribonuclotide로서 EcoRI인식자리를 지닌 육량체 GpApApTpTpCp를 화학적으로 합성하면서, 이 과정에 포함되는 반응물의 보호, 축합 보호기의 제거, 생성물의 정제, 정량 및 확인작업의 전반에 걸쳐 기존 방법에 대한 평가와 개선을 수행하였다. 소량체합성의 기본 단위는 이량체로 함이 효유적이며, 착합단계의 수득율은 이량체＞사량체＞육량체의 순으로 감소함을 알았다. UV/IR분광법 및 hplc/tlc크로마토그래피법을 이용함으로써 미량의 시료를 사용하여 Oligonucleotide를 합성함에 수반되는 정량/확인의 난점을 해결하였다. 또한 5'-OH가 노출된 nucleotide 중 전자를 과량 사용하여 반응시키고 산처리하여 탄산수소나트륨 수용액으로 세척하는 것이 양호한 방법임을 알았다. 아울러 합성에 관련된 nucleotide와 그 유도체를 분광학적 크로마토 그래피자료를 수록하였다.

$Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{0.8}Y_{0.2}Cu_{2}^{16}O_{8+\delta}$의 $^{16}O$이 $^{18}O$으로 치환되는 $^{16}O-^{18}O$ 교환반응의 결정학적 위치 의존성에 대하여 고찰하였다. $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{0.8}Y_{0.2}Cu_{2}^{16}O_{8+\delta}$의 라만스펙트럼 측정결과 297, 464, $623cm^{-1}$에서 라만밴드가 관찰되었으며 이들은 모두 시료중의 $^{16}O$이 $^{18}O$으로 치환됨에 따라 저파수측으로 이동하였다. 이러한 동위체 치환에 따른 저파수측으로의 이동속도는 297, $464cm^{-1}$ 라만밴드의 경우 거의 같았지만 $623cm^{-1}$ 라만밴드의 경우 두 라만밴드보다 현저히 늦었다. 이는 $^{16}O-^{18}O$ 교환반응이 산소의 결정학적 위치에 의존한다는 사실을 시사한다. 이로부터 정방정계를 가정하고 623, 464, $297cm^{-1}$ 라만밴드를 각각 $O_{pl}(A_{g}),\;O_{ap}O_{Bi}$의 모드로 귀속하였다.

This article comes up with a new method which is based on the visual characteristic of the objects and machine learning technology to achieve semi-automated recognition of the personnel, machine & materials of the construction sites. Balancing the real-time performance and accuracy, using Faster RCNN (Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Networks) with transfer learning method appears to be a rational choice. After fine-tuning an ImageNet pre-trained Faster RCNN and testing with it, the result shows that the precision ratio (mAP) has so far reached 67.62%, while the recall ratio (AR) has reached 56.23%. In other word, this recognizing method has achieved rational performance. Further inference with the video of the construction of Huoshenshan Hospital also indicates preliminary success.

Purpose: To study the relationship of the 1st to 2nd intermetatarsal angle(1-2 IMA) between the intra-operative and weight bearing postoperative anterior-posterior(AP) radiography, and evaluate the intra-operative predictability for the postoperative 1-2 IMA after proximal metatarsal osteotomy(PMO) in the hallux valgus deformity. Materials and Methods: 20 cases of moderate to severe hallux valgus patients were included in this study. After the oblique PMO(Ludloff procedure) was performed and the osteotomy site was fixed temporarily, the AP view was taken intra-operatively. About 10 weeks after surgery, postoperative weight bearing AP view was taken. The pre -. intra -, and postoperative 1-2 IMAs were compared and ana lysed statistically. Results: The 1-2 IMAs of the weight bearing preoperative, non-weight bearing intra-operative and weight bearing postoperative AP view were $15.9^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ},\;4.7^{\circ}{\pm}2.1^{\circ}$, and $6.8^{\circ}{\pm}2.5^{\circ}$ (Mean${\pm}$SD) respectively. The postoperative 1-2 IMA was greater than intra-operative measurement by $2.1^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$ (range; $-1^{\circ}$ to $6^{\circ}$) which was stastistically significant(p<0.05). To get less than $9^{\circ}$ postoperatively as an average normal, intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be within $3.8^{\circ}$ to $5.2^{\circ}$ (95% confidence interval), and intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be within $3.4^{\circ}{\pm}$to $5.4^{\circ}$(95% confidence interval) to get more than $6^{\circ}$ difference between preoperative and postoperative 1-2 IMA, which is regarded as more than average correction by the distal metatarsal osteotomy. Conclusion: In hallux valgus surgery, it should be considered that intra-operative 1-2 IMA was less than the postoperative. To achieve postoperative 1-2 IMA less than $9^{\circ}$ and more than correction angle of $6^{\circ}$, it is suggested that the intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be measured less than about $5^{\circ}$.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify the optimal insertion angle between the skin and the needle in ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein (IJV) catheterization with trauma patients. Methods: From March 2012 to December 2012, consecutive trauma patients who were planned to receive IJV catheterization were prospectively enrolled. We measured the distances from the skin to IJV's anterior-posterior (AP) vessel wall on the longitudinal scan's midline in supine-positioned patients. We calculated the AP diameter of IJV and the angle between skin and the imaginary line from the puncture site to the IJV's internal center on screen's midline (defined as optimal angle which is considered as the safest approach) on the longitudinal scan. We divided the patients into 3 groups based on the CVP (low CVP <5 $cmH_2O$, $5{\leq}$ middle CVP ${\leq}10\;cmH_2O$, and high CVP>10 $cmH_2O$) and compared their mean anterior posterior (AP) diameters and optimal angles. Results: A total of 56 patients were enrolled. Of these 21 were women(35.4%). The mean AP diameter of low CVP group was significantly lower than middle and high CVP groups($0.68{\pm}0.30$, $1.06{\pm}0.31$, and $1.23{\pm}0.49$ cm respectively, p=0.003 vs. 0.002). There was no significant difference among 3 groups' mean optimal angles ($28.1{\pm}6.1$, $30.1{\pm}4.5$, and $28.0{\pm}5.0$ degree respectively). Conclusion: The optimal angle between the skin and the needle in ultrasound-guided IJV catheterization with trauma patients is not changed as about 30 degrees regardless of CVP even though IJV's diameter is altered in proportion to the CVP.

The cats gene encodes the major catalase in Sreptomyces coelicolor, whose production increases upon H$_2$O$_2$treatment. Besides the previously identified primary promoter (catApl), a minor promoter (catAp2) was newly assigned by S1 nuclease mapping. The catAp2 transcript was observed transiently upon entry into the stationary phase in liquid culture and upon differentiation on solid plates, whereas the level of catApl transcription did not chance significantly during this growth transition. ThecatApl promoter was transcribed by the major vegetative RNA polymerase holoenzyme containing $\sigma$$\^$HrdB/, whereas the catAp2 was transcribed in vitro by the holoenzyme containing $\sigma$$\^$R/ that is activated under oxidative conditions. The cia-element regulating the H$_2$O$_2$-inducibility of catApl was identified within the 23 bp inverted repeat sequence located between -65 and -43 of the catApl promoter. We roamed this sequence HRE (H$_2$O$_2$-responsive Element). The distal half of the inverted repeat was more crucial for H$_2$O$_2$-dependent induction of the catApl transcript than the proximal half. HRE most likely serves as a binding site for the H$_2$O$_2$-responsive repressor CatR.
