Peptides have been developed for in vivo imaging probes against to the specific biomarker in the biological process of living systems. Peptide based imaging probes have been applied to identify and detect their active sites using imaging modalities, such as PET, SPECT and MRI. Especially, tumor receptor imaging with the peptides has been widely used to specific tumor detection. This review discusses the targeting peptides that have been successfully characterized for tumor diagnosis by receptor imaging.

Amylases catalyze the hydrolysis of starch material and play central roles in carbohydrate metabolism. The structure and a size exclusion column chromatography proved that the enzyme is a dimer in solution. The N -terminal segment of the enzyme folds into a distinct domain and comprises the enzyme active site together with the central (${\alpha}$/ ${\beta}$)$\sub$8/ barrel of the adjacent subunit.(omitted)

Particulate matter (PM) is a mixture of microscopic solid inhalable particles including airborne liquid droplets, and it is implicated with several diseases. The eye does not have a protective barrier among the human organs, consequently it get directly exposed to environmental substances such as PM. The scarcity of treatments for damage to the eyesight and the vision and eye structure being closely related to the structure and function of the central nervous system highlights the cruciality of novel therapeutics. In this study was conducted using in vivo zebrafish vertebrate model which is a useful model due to the conserved genes between human. We found that protective effect of Octopus minor extract against particulate matter-induced adverse effects on eye development in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos by regulating antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mRNA expression.

O-Methylation is a common substitution reaction found in microbes as well as in mammalians. Some of the O-methyltransferases (OMTs) have broad substrate specificity and could be used to methylate various compounds. DnrK from Streptomyces peucetius encodes an anthracycline 4-O-methyltransferase, which uses carminomycin as a substrate, and its crystal structure has been determined. Molecular docking experiments with DnrK using various flavonoids were successfully conducted, and some of the flavonoids such as apigenin and genistein were predicted to serve as substrates. Based on these results, O-methylations of various flavonoids with the DnrK were successfully carried out. The methylation position was determined to be at the hydroxyl group of C7. Important amino acid residues for the enzymatic reaction of DnrK with apigenin could be identified using site-directed mutagenesis. Molecular docking could be useful to predict the substrate specificity ranges of other OMTs.

생체정보 컴퓨팅은 생체신호 센서와 컴퓨터 정보처리를 융합한 정보시스템에 기초하여 컴퓨팅시스템 뿐만 아니라 빅데이터 시스템에 크게 영향을 미치고 있다. 이러한 생체정보는 지금까지의 텍스트, 이미지, 동영상 등의 전통적인 데이터 형식과는 달리 생체신호의 의미를 부여하는 값은 텍스트 기반으로 표현되고, 중요한 이벤트 순간은 이미지 형식으로 저장하며, 시계열 분석을 통한 데이터 변화 예측 및 분석을 위해서는 동영상 형식 등 비정형데이터를 포함하는 복합적인 데이터 형식을 구성한다. 이러한 복합적인 데이터 구성은 개별 생체정보 응용서비스에서 요구하는 데이터의 특징에 따라 텍스트, 이미지, 영상 형식 등으로 각각 분리되어 요청되거나, 상황에 따라 복잡 데이터 형식을 동시에 요구할 수 있다. 기존 생체정보 컴퓨팅 시스템들은 전통적인 컴퓨팅 구성요소, 컴퓨팅 구조, 데이터 처리 방법 등에 의존하므로 데이터 처리성능, 전송능력, 저장효율성, 시스템안전성 등의 측면에서 많은 비효율성을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 생체정보 처리 컴퓨팅을 효과적으로 지원하는 생체정보 빅데이터 플랫폼을 구축하기 위해 개선된 바이오센싱 융합 빅데이터 컴퓨팅 아키텍처를 제안한다. 제안 아키텍처는 생체신호관련 데이터의 저장 및 전송 효율성, 컴퓨팅 성능, 시스템 안정성 등을 효과적으로 지원하며, 향후 생체정보 컴퓨팅에 최적화된 시스템 구현 및 생체정보 서비스 구축을 위한 기반을 제공할 수 있다.

This study was carried out to analyze the disparities of basic living infrastructure between Guns(rural counties), and between Eups/Myuns(rural districts) in Jeollanam-do province. For the purpose of this study, dimensions of regional disparity in basic living structure were measured by 3 components ; road, public water service and sewage disposal. By utilizing the published statistics, this study has examined 8 Guns(counties) containing Eup and Myon in Jeollanam-do province which can represent 4 different rural areal types, respectively, i,e. mountainous, semi-mountainous, flat and seashore areas. The data acquisition time of this study is fixed on end of 2009 year in order for possible collections of the most recent published statistics. It presents evidence on the magnitude and evolution of discussion of regional disparities between Guns(counties), and between Eup & Myon, and between Myons in Jeollanam-do province even though infrastructure provision level of Jeollanam-do rural areas are much more improved than the past. Concludingly, the existing disparities in this area is meaningful and so, it should be seriously reconsidered when deciding local government's budget allocation priority.

Two hepcidin paralogs (ojhamp1 and ojhamp2) were isolated and characterized from a euryhaline Javanese ricefish (Oryzias javanicus: Beloniformes). The ojhamp1 cDNA encoded 90 or 91 amino acids (aa) of a typical HAMP1 preproprotein. This preproprotein is believed to cleave and yield the 66 or 67 aa-proprotein, followed by the 26 aa-mature peptide, composed of 8 conserved cysteine residues and the QSHL amino terminal motif. The ojhamp2 cDNA encoded 89 aa of HAMP2 preproprotein, cleaved to yield a 65 aa proprotein, and subsequently the 25 aa-mature peptide. The mature OJHAMP1 possessed a cationic isoelectric point (pI), whereas OJHAMP2 had an anionic charge. At the genomic level, both ojhamp1 and ojhamp2 share a conserved tripartite structure (three exons interrupted by two introns) with other vertebrate hepcidin genes. However, the ojhamp1 was shown to exist as two distinct mRNA species, encoding 90 or 91 aa, due to alternative splicing at the junction site between intron I and exon II. Both ojhamp1 and ojhamp2 transcripts were detected in a wide range of tissue types with varying levels of basal expression, although the highest expression was observed in the liver for both isoforms. Transcriptional response to bacterial challenge using Edwardsiella tarda showed that ojhamp1 was moderately upregulated in the liver but remained unchanged in the kidney. However, the ojhamp2 was significantly suppressed in both the kidney and liver, suggesting a potential diversification between the two paralogs.

In this study, in order to improve the disadvantages of the environmental error of the infusion set that performs infusion therapy in the existing clinical practice and to maximize the user's convenience by miniaturizing the existing infusion pump system, the structure of the muscle pump of the human vein was imitated. As a double check valve method, a method for preventing the backflow of fluid and discharging a constant fluid in one direction by external pressure was proposed. The proposed bio-mimic muscle pump uses a check valve that controls the flow of fluid in one direction and a silicone tube with elasticity, and a chamber is constructed. A peristaltic pump for applying intermittent pressure to the tube chamber was constructed using a multi-cam structure roller. In order to verify the performance of the proposed pump, optimization was performed while changing the number of multi-cam rollers and adjusting the speed of the roller driving motor, and the reproducibility of the instantaneous discharge amount and the continuous discharge amount of the pump was compared and tested. The performance of the muscle pump proposed in this study was verified through experiments that it can inject up to 1L of fluid within 12 hours, and that it is possible to inject the fluid with an accuracy of ±0.1ml. Real-time monitoring of the fluid injection volume through the bio-mimic muscle pump proposed in this study not only increases the convenience of the administrator, but also provides a precise fluid administration environment to more patients at a low cost, and additionally applies bubble detection and occlusion detection technology If so, it is believed that a safer medical environment can be provided to patients.
