원자력 시설 이용 증대에 따른 불의의 방사선 사고에 대비하여 방사선 작업종사자의 피폭시 진단을 위한 검사방법이 필요하다. 이 방법은 검사를 위한 검체의 채취가 용이하고, 짧은 시간내에 간편하게 많은 Sample을 처리하여야 한다는 조건을 만족시켜야 한다. 인체의 다양한 조직 및 세포 중에서 위의 조건을 만족시킬 수 있는 말초 혈액의 림파구는 비교적 방사선에 대한 감수성이 높다고 알려져 있으며, 채집 또한 용이하여 생물학적 선량 측정의 도구로써 이용가치가 높아 방사선 작업 종자사나 피폭 가능성이 있는 사람의 screening test에 사용될수 있다. 정상인에 있어서의 림파구내 미세핵 존재 여부와 방사선 피폭량에 따른 미세핵 발생빈도를 시험관내 실험을 통하여 표준화시켜 향후 방사선 피폭시 피폭선량을 역으로 산출해 낼 수 있는 방사선 장해의 평가 기술 개발의 기초자료를 마련하기 위하여 본 실험을 시행하였다. 정상인으로 부터 혈액을 채취하여 림파구만을 Ficoll-Hypaque gradient 방법으로 추출하여 배양한 다음, 본 치료방사선과의 중성자 치료기 (MC-50, scanditronix)와 Co-60 teletherapy unit(Theratron-780, AECL)를 이용하여 방사선 조사를 시행하였다. Cytokinesis-block method를 이용하여 첫번째 분열을 한 림파구에서 미세핵(Micronucleus)을 현미경을 통하여 계수한 다음, 이의 선량-반응 관계식을 linear-quadratic model을 사용하여 구하고, 이를 근거로 하여 gamma-ray에 대한 중성자의 Relative biological effectiveness (RBE)를 산출하였다. 방사선에 피폭되지 않은 림파구의 미세핵 발생빈도는 binucieated cell한 개당 $0.013{\pm}0.0002$로써 사람에 따라 통계학적으로 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그림 2와 3에서 보는 바와 같이 개개인으로부터 얻은 data는 감마선과 중성자선 모두에서 선량-반응 곡선의 linear-quadratic equation에 잘 일치하였다. 감마선과 중성자선 모두에서 선량에 따른 미세핵의 발생빈도는 선량이 높을수록 비례하여 증가하였는데, 감마선의 경우에는 $r^2=1.000,\;x^2=0.7074$, p=0.95였으며, 중성자선인 경우에는 $r^2=0.996,\;x^2=7.6834$, p=0.11 였다. 이를 linear-quadratic model로 분석하면, 가장 적합한 선은 감마선인 경우에는 y= ($0.31{\pm}0.049)\;D+(0.0022{\pm}0.0002)\;D^2+(13.19{\pm}1.854$) 였으며, 중성자선인 경우에는 y=($0.99{\pm}0.528)\;D+(0.0093{\pm}0.0047)\;D^2+(13.31{\pm}7.309$) 였었다. 감마선에 대한 중성자선의 상대적 생물학적 효과비 (RBE)는 y=aD+$bD^2$+c를 다음과 같은 식으로 변형시켜 계산하였다. $$\frac{[-a{pm}\sqrt{a^2-4b\;(c-y}}]}{2{\times}6}$$ 미세핵 발생빈도가 세포당 0.05와 0.8사이에서의 중성자선의 상대적 생물학적 효과비는 $2.37{\pm}0.17$ 이었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 선량에 따른 미세핵 발생빈도는 기존의 방사선 감수성 test의 결과와 대동소이하여, 앞으로 방사선 감수성을 측정하는 방법으로 이용할 수 있으며, 또한 실험방법이 비교적 간단하며 짧은 시간에 결과를 도출할 수 있어 생물학적 선량측정 도구로써 널리 이용될 수 있을 것으로 생각되어 진다.

노루궁뎅이는 담자균문, 민주름버섯목, 산호침버섯과에 속하는 식의약용버섯으로 예로부터 위궤양이나 위암의 치료에 효과가 있으며 생쥐의 Sarcoma 180과 Ehrlich Sarcoma에도 효과가 있다고 알려져 왔다. 노루궁뎅이의 자실체로부터 중성염용액, 열수 및 메탄올 등을 이용하여 조다당류를 추출하고 ICR mice에 주사하여 항암 및 면역증강 효과를 조사하였다. Sarcoma 180, HepG2, HT-29, NIH3T3 등의 세포에 대한 세포독성을 조사한 결과 $10{\sim}2,000\;{\mu}g/ml$의 조다당류 농도에서 각각의 암세포는 세포독성을 거의 나타내지 않았다. Sarcoma 180으로 접종된 ICR mouse에 자실체에서 추출한 각각의 조다당류를 투여한 실험군은 대조군에 비해 수명이 각각 29.1~54.1% 연장되었다. 노루궁뎅이 자실체를 중성염 용액으로 추출한 조다당류는 $50\;{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 비장세포의 수를 2.9배 증가시켰으며 또한 중성염 추출 조다당류를 $200\;{\mu}g/ml$의 농도로 투여한 실험군 생쥐의 B 임파구 alkaline phosphatase의 활성은 대조군에 비해 5.5배의 증가하였다. 중성염 용액 추출 조다당류를 50 mg/kg body weight의 농도로 투여한 실험군 생쥐의 총 복강 세포 수와 백혈구의 수는 대조군에 비하여 각각 4배와 2.3배로 증가하였다. 또한 면역 관련 장기인 간, 비장 및 흉선의 체중에 대한 무게 비율은 대조군에 비하여 유의성을 보이지 않았다. 따라서 노루궁뎅이의 자실체에서 추출한 조다당류는 생쥐의 면역을 증강시키고 생쥐의 Sarcoma 180에 대해 항암효과를 나타내었다.

A 7 years old, female and neutered ferret (Mustela putorius furo) was presented to local animal hospital due to lethargy, anorexia and hypothermia. Radiography, ultrasonography and blood test were performed. On the basis of clinical signs and tests, this case was presumed to be lymphoma. In consideration of this ferret's condition, chemotherapy was carried out for the treatment. However, the ferret died a few days. After necropsy, metastatic tumors were observed over abdomen. All tumors were packed with homologous lymphocytes with pleomorphic changes and numerous mitotic figures. Consequently, this masses were diagnosed as B-cell gastrointestinal lymphoma, which were negative for CD3 on immunohistochemistry.

Objectives: This study evaluates anti-stress and sleep-inductive effects of Dongshingihyeolyangsubang (DSGYSB) on rats induced by chronic mild stress (CMS). Methods: Twenty-five healthy rats were randomly divided into five groups: normal, CMS (Control), DSGYSB50, DSGYSB100, and DSGYSBS200. All rats except the normal group were exposed to unpredictable stress conditions such as water deprivation, empty bottles, and forced treadmill. A week after starting the experiment, rats in DSGYSB50, DSGYSB100, and DSGYSB200 groups were fed orally with water once a day for two weeks. Then blood samples were taken from the rats for analysis of complete blood count, AST, ALT, and glucose. Noradrenaline, corticosterone, serotonin, GABA and melatonin were measured by ELISA kit. BDNF, CREB, TrkB and $TNF-{\alpha}$ were measured by RT-PCT. Results: In Noradrenaline contents, the DSGYSB200 group revealed significant decrease compared to the control group. In corticosterone contents, the DSGYSB200 group revealed significant decrease compared to the control group. In serotonin contents, the DSGYSB200 group revealed significant increase compared to the control group. In GABA contents, the DSGYSB50, DSGYSB100, and DSGYSB200 groups revealed significant increase compared to the control group. In the activity of BDNF, the DSGYSB50, DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups revealed significant increase compared to the control group. In the activity of CREB, the DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups revealed a significant decrease compared to the control group. In the activity of TrkB, the DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups revealed significant decrease compared to the control group. In the activity of $TNF-{\alpha}$, DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups revealed significant decrease compared to the control group. In glucose contents, the DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups revealed significant decrease compared to the control group. In the leukocyte changes, white blood cells, neutrophil, lymphocytes, and monocyte significantly increased in the DSGYSB100 and DSGYSB200 groups than the control group. In the erythrocyte changes, hemoglobin significantly increased in the DSGYSB200 group than the control group. Conclusions: Results suggest that Dongshingihyeolyangsubang has anti-stress and sleep-inductive effects on rats induced by CMS.

Purpose: Lymphocyte subset recovery is an important factor that determines the success of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Temporal differences in the recovery of lymphocyte subsets and the factors influencing this recovery are important variables that affect a patient's posttransplant immune reconstitution, and therefore require investigation. Methods: The time taken to achieve lymphocyte subset recovery and the factors influencing this recovery were investigated in 59 children who had undergone HSCT at the Department of Pediatrics, The Catholic University of Korea Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, and who had an uneventful follow-up period of at least 1 year. Analyses were carried out at 3 and 12 months post-transplant. An additional study was performed 1 month post-transplant to evaluate natural killer (NK) cell recovery. The impact of pre- and post-transplant variables, including diagnosis of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNAemia posttransplant, on lymphocyte recovery was evaluated. Results: The lymphocyte subsets recovered in the following order: NK cells, cytotoxic T cells, B cells, and helper T cells. At 1 month post-transplant, acute graft-versus-host disease was found to contribute significantly to the delay of $CD16^+/56^+$ cell recovery. Younger patients showed delayed recovery of both $CD3^+/CD8^+$ and $CD19^+$ cells. EBV DNAemia had a deleterious impact on the recovery of both $CD3^+$ and $CD3^+/CD4^+$ lymphocytes at 1 year post-transplant. Conclusion: In our pediatric allogeneic HSCT cohort, helper T cells were the last subset to recover. Younger age and EBV DNAemia had a negative impact on the post-transplant recovery of T cells and B cells.
