A cDNA (Oslls1) encoding Lls1-homologue of maize was isolated from cDNA library of rice (Oryza sativa cv. Ilpum). The 2,138 bp of full length Oslls1 clone contains an open reading frame of 1,623 nucleotides encoding 575 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of Oslls1 has a high level of homology with chlorophyll a oxygenases of Arabidopsis thaliana (67%) and Marchantia polymorpha (65%). Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA indicates the existence of a small gene family for Oslls1 in the rice genome. The expression of Oslls1 mRNA was induced in leaves and germinating seeds. Treatment of $H_2O$$_2$significantly down-regulated Oslls1 expression. The expression of Oslls1 mRNA was consititutively down-regulated in the blm, a rice mutant exhibiting spontaneous necrotic lesions. These results suggest that this Oslls1 gene may be involved incell death mechanisms in the blm mutant of rice.

This paper presents a digital modeling technique for the distributed parameter system. The basic idea of the proposed technique is to discretize a continuous system with respect to the spatial coordinate using the approximate methods such as bilinear method and backward difference method. The response of the discretized system is analyzed by Laplace transform and Z transform. The computational result of the proposed technique in a torsional shaft is compared with the exact solution and the result of the finite element method.

본 연구는 돌연변이원인 자외선과 ethyl methanesulfonate(EMS) 그리고 bleomycin(BLM)을 전처리한 HeLa 세포에서 세포막에 존재하는 glycoconiugates에 미치는 이들 돌연변이원의 효과를 밝히기 위하여 세포생존 실험법과 Lectin cytochemistry법으로 조사하였다. 1 mM EMS를 전처리한 후 10 mM EMS를 처리한 군의 세포생존율은 10 mM EMS를 단독처리한 군의 세포생존율 보다 더 높았다. 그리고 10 mM EMS 단독처리군 보다 1 mM EMS를 전처 리 한 후 10 mM EMS를 처리한 군에서 Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)은 더욱 강한 양성반응을 보였다. 반면에 succinylated wheat germ agglutinin (SWGA)는 10 mM EMS 단독처리군과 1 mM EMS를 전처리한 후 10mM EMS를 처리한 군에서 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과들을 종합해 볼 때, HeLa세포에서 EMS에 대한 획득된 저항성은 다내약제성 또는 적응반응과 관련되는 원형질막의 sialic acid를 포함한 glycoconiugates와 관계 될 것으로 추측된다.

Investigation with $^{57}Co-Bleomycin$ in patients with the various cancers and in tumor bearing animals are descirbed. In the patients, $^{57}Co-Bleomycin$ appears to be one of the useful tumor-seeking radiopharmaceuticals, and worth applicable to clinical uses. Labelled yield of $^{57}Co-Bleo$ was about 97 % by thin layer chromatography. The pyrogen free tests were performed to meet U.S.P. critical ranges. In clinical studies with $^{57}Co-Bleo$, 4 cases out of 5 patients with lung cancer., 2 cases among 3 thyroid cancer patients, and all 3 hepatoma patients showed positive tumor scans. The patients with stomach cancer, and the esophageal cancer showed false negative scintigraphy. A case with pulmonary tuberculosis showed a positive scan while liver abscess showed a negative picture. The merits of $^{57}Co-Bleomycin$ scintigraphy seems to be its relatively high affinity to tumors and low radiation hazard in spite of long physical half life.

Basolateral and brush border membrane (BLM and BBM) vesicles of renal proximal tubules were prepared from adult male New Zealand White rabbits to evaluate as a potential model for assessment of nephrotoxicity. PAH uptakes using BLMV, glucose and leucine uptakes using BBMV were measured in the rabbits treated cephaloridine. In addition, urinalysis and histopathological studies were performed to investigate the correlationship with membrane vesicle uptakes. The results were as follows: (1) the activite of Na+, K+ -ATPase was enriched 12.3-fold in vasolateral memvrane vesicles (BLMV) and the specific activity of alkaline phosphatase in purified brush border memvrane vesicles (BBMV) was enriched 10.1-fold compared with each of microsomal homogenate. (2) In the uptake experiments, cephaloridine decreased initial and probenecid-sensitive PAH uptakes in BLMV. (3) Cephaloridine tested decreased initial and phlorizin-sensitive glucose uptakes in BBMV. (4) Cephaloridine tested decreased initial and Na+-dependent leucine uptakes in BBMV. (5) Cephaloridine tested significantly increased the urinary excretion of glucose and activity of ${\gamma}$-GTP. (6) Cephaloridine tested caused moderate necrotic changes in renal tubular cells and formation of urinary cast in the lumina of Henle's loop and collecting tubules besides the swelling of renal tubules.

Pulmonary fibrosis is a serious lung disease that occurs predominantly in men. Genistein is an important natural soybean-derived phytoestrogen that affects various biological functions, such as cell migration and fibrosis. However, the antifibrotic effects of genistein on pulmonary fibrosis are largely unknown. The antifibrotic effects of genistein were evaluated using in vitro and in vivo models of lung fibrosis. Proteomic data were analyzed using nano-LC-ESI-MS/MS. Genistein significantly reduced transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1-induced expression of collagen type I and α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) in MRC-5 cells and primary fibroblasts from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Genistein also reduced TGF-β1-induced expression of p-Smad2/3 and p-p38 MAPK in fibroblast models. Comprehensive protein analysis confirmed that genistein exerted an anti-fibrotic effect by regulating various molecular mechanisms, such as unfolded protein response, epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling, cell death, and several metabolic pathways. Genistein was also found to decrease hydroxyproline levels in the lungs of BLM-treated mice. Genistein exerted an anti-fibrotic effect by preventing fibroblast activation, suggesting that genistein could be developed as a pharmacological agent for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary fibrosis.

Sirt1, a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ($NAD^+$)-dependent histone deacetylase, is known to deacetylate a number of proteins that are involved in various cellular pathways such as the stress response, apoptosis and cell growth. Modulation of the stress response by Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) is achieved by the deacetylation of key proteins in a cellular pathway, and leads to a delay in the onset of cancer or aging. In particular, Sirt1 is known to play an important role in maintaining genomic stability, which may be strongly associated with a protective effect during tumorigenesis and during the onset of aging. In these studies, Sirt1 was generated in stably expressing cells and during the stimulation of DNA damage to examine whether it promotes survival. Sirt1 expressing cells facilitated the repair of DNA damage induced by either ionizing radiation (IR) or bleomycin (BLM) treatment. Fastened damaged DNA repair in Sirt1 expressing cells corresponded to prompt activation of Chk2 and ${\gamma}$-H2AX foci formation and promoted survival. Inhibition of Sirt1 enzymatic activity by a chemical inhibitor, nicotinamide (NIC), delayed DNA damage repair, indicating that promoted DNA damage repair by Sirt1 functions to induce survival when DNA damage occurs.

Ten (E)-and (Z)-isomers of 2-phenylcyclopropylamine (PCA), 1-Me PCA, 2-Me-PCA, N-Me-PCA, and N, N-diMe PCA and fifteen o-. m-, p- isomers of (E) PCA with substituents of Me, Cl, F, OMe, OH were synthesized in this laboratory and tested for the inhibition of rat brain mitochondrial MAO-A and MAO-B. The effects of substituents, their positions, and stereochemistry on the inhibition were assessed for the compounds with substituents at cyclopropyl and amino groups and QSAR analyses were performed using the potency data of ring-substituted compounds. The best correlated QSAR equations are as follows : pI$_{50}$ = 0.804 $\pi^2$-0.834 Blo-1.069 Blm + 0.334 Lp-1.709 HDp +7.897 (r = 0.945, s =0.211, F = 16.691, p = 0.000) for the inhibition of MAO-A;PI$_{50}$= 1.815$\pi$-0.825 $\pi^2$-1.203R + 0.900 Es$^2$ + 0.869 Es$^3$ + 0.796 Es$^4$-0.992 HDp + 0.562 HAo + 3.893 (r = 0.982, s =0.178, F = 23.351, p = 0.000) for the inhibition of MAO-B. Based on the potency difference between stereoisomers of cyclopropylamine-modified compounds and an QSAR cavity near para position, two hydrophobic carities interacting with Me group, a hydrophobic site near para position, and an amino group binding site and that in addition to the same two hydrophotic cavities, hydrophotic area, steric boundaries, hydrogen-acceptor site, and amino group binding site, another steric boundary near para position and a hydrogen donating site near ortho position constitute active sites of MAO-B.

As the second-largest 1st degree of ecological zone in Kangwon Province, Pyeongchang County is expected to play an important role in expanding the protected areas of the Republic of Korea. However, Pyoungchang County is expected to experience an increase in demand for development due to the 2018 Winter Olympics. Problems related to various stakeholders and limited budget will arise regarding the issue of expanding the protected areas. In this study, in order to effectively control these problems, we designed expansion plans for the 1st degree ecological zoning map areas and the observed data of threatened species I and II in Pyoungchang County by using the MARXAN Software. As for the methods, we first set the planning units(PUs) for the spatial analysis. The PUs include boundary length, land cost, land status, etc. Then, we made the input data by controlling the conservation features, BLM(Boundary Length Modifier) and iteration numbers. There are two measures for the establishment of the protected areas, one of which only concerns with the ecological priority, and the other with combining the land cost on forest. The one illustrated shows that the larger patches that include the conservation feature was selected as a candidate of the protected areas. The other one presented shows that inexpensive land cost areas were selected. As this study produces visual results and enables an efficient application of various values in selecting protected areas, we believe that it will be useful to various stakeholders in spatial decision-making process.
