This study was carried out to investigate the effects of enzyme activities on male Sprague-Dawley rats intoxicated by CCI4 on IS(Godulbaegi) diets for 4 weeks. We divides into 5 diet groups which were normal diet(N), normal diet intoxicated by CCI4(NC) and 3 IS diets ; leaves diet(ILC), roots diet(IRC) and mixed diet of leaves and roots which were also injected by CCI4 3 times for 4 weeks. The activity of glutamic pyruvic transaminase(GPT) in serum in NC was higher than in N as we expected. The GPT activites and the values of malondial-dehyde(MDA) of IS groups were all lower than in NC, IC as lowest. The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in NC was higher than in N and IS groups had values less than the values of N. Catalase showed similarity in results as above. The values of glutathione S-transferase(GST) and cytochrome P-450 in NC were lower than in N. IS groups had higher values than in NC. Godulbaegi might be important not only as one of the traditional Korean foods but also as therapeutic agent for hepatotoxicity and for shortening the recovery time in liver disease.

Effects of aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang at Kansu(BL_{18}$) and Tamsu(BL_{19}$) on the Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase(GOT), Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase(GPT), Lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) and blood pictures in rat with $CCI_4$ were determined. In the group with $CCI_4$ the activity of GOT, GPT and LDH showed a tendency to increase, however these values showed a tendency to decrease by the aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang throughout experimental days and these values were recovered to those of control group on the last experimental days. Counts of RBC and Hemoglobin showed a tendency to decrease in rat with $CCI_4$, however these decreased values were recovered by the aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang and on the last experimental days, these values were similar to those of control group. In the $CCI_4$ group, counts of WBC and the proportion of Lymphocytes showed a tendency to increase and the proportion of Neutrophils showed a tendency to decrease, however these values showed a rapid recovery by the aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang. In the meridian point of Kansu and Tamsu, the effects of aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang on recovery of liver function showed no difference. Results from this study indicate that the aqua-acupuncture with soshiho-tang can improve the liver function in rat with $CCI_4$.

본 논문에서는 Multi-Carrier CDMA 시스템 성능 열화의 주요 원인인 다중 접속 간섭 (MUI : Multi-User Interference)이 존재하는 이동 통신 채널 환경에서 MUI 제거를 위한 성능 개선 기법으로 동일 채널 간섭 제거기를 적용하여 성능 개선 정도를 평가하였다. 성능 해서 결과, 동일 채널 간섭 제거기를 적용함에 의해 BER 성능이 매우 개선되며, 특히 Eb/No 값을 높일수록 성능 개선 효과가 현저히 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 예를 들어 Eb/No=12 ㏈로 데이터 서비스 (BER =$10^{-5}$ )를 지원하고자 하는 경우, 동일 채널 간섭 제거기를 사용하지 않으면 4명의 사용자밖에 지원할 수 없지만, 동일 채널 간섭 제거기를 사용하면 약 30명의 사용자까지 지원할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 $E_{b/}$ $N_{o}$ 를 고정시키고 통일 채널 간섭 제거기를 적용하면 BER면에서 약 5 x $10^{-3}$ 정도의 성능 개선 효과가 나타남을 알 수 있었다.다.

An aqueous extract of oriental herbal composition named Onchengyeum and curcumin, an antioxidant isolated from turmeric (Curcuma Zonga L.) reduced hepatotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride ($CCI_4$). Improved liver function was observed by measuring the activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CRE), total cholesterol (T-CHO), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-CHO), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-CHO), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB) and total bilirubin (BIL) in serum. Hepatic parameters monitored were levels of cholesterol (CHO), triglyceride (TG), and malondialdehyde (MDA) and activities of cytochrome P450 (CYP), NADPH-CYP reductase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). The histopathological examination showed that the treatment of Onchengyeum and curcumin relieved the ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes which had been generated by $CCI_4$. The results suggested that hepatoprotective effects of Onchengyeum and curcumin possibly are due to their promising antioxidative activity.

Effects of forced physical exercise on the CCl4 hepatotoxicity were examined in adult female rats. Rats were treated with CCl4 (2 mmol/kg, ip) and introduced into a cylindrical cage rotating at 9 rpm for 20 min/hr for 6 hr. Eighteen hr following the termination of exercise serum sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) activities and glucose-6-phosphatase activity were determined as parameters for hepatotoxicity. Physical exercise inhibited the $CCI_{4-}$induced increases in SDH, GOT, GPT activity, and glucose-6-phosphatase activity were determined as parameters for hepatotoxicity.

Background: Thrombospondin-4 (TSP4) upregulates in the spinal cord following peripheral nerve injury and contributes to the development of neuropathic pain (NP). We investigated the effects of cyanocobalamin alone or in combination with morphine on pain and the relationship between these effects and spinal TSP4 expression in neuropathic rats. Methods: NP was induced by chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve. Cyanocobalamin (5 and 10 mg/kg/day) was administered 15 days before CCI and then for 4 and 14 postoperative days. Morphine (2.5 and 5 mg/kg/day) was administered only post-CCI. Combination treatment included cyanocobalamin and morphine, 10 and 5 mg/kg/day, respectively. All drugs were administered intraperitoneally. Nociceptive thresholds were detected by esthesiometer, analgesia meter, and plantar test, and TSP4 expression was assessed by western blotting and fluorescence immunohistochemistry. Results: CCI decreased nociceptive thresholds in all tests and induced TSP4 expression on the 4th postoperative day. The decrease in nociceptive thresholds persisted except for the plantar test, and the increased TSP4 expression reversed on the 14th postoperative day. Cyanocobalamin and low-dose morphine alone did not produce any antinociceptive effects. High-dose morphine improved the decreased nociceptive thresholds in the esthesiometer when administered alone but combined with cyanocobalamin in all tests. Cyanocobalamin and morphine significantly induced TSP4 expression when administered alone in both doses for 4 or 14 days. However, this increase was less when the two drugs are combined. Conclusions: The combination of cyanocobalamin and morphine is more effective in antinociception and partially decreased the induced TSP4 expression compared to the use of either drug alone.

고려인삼에서 분리한 폴리아세틸렌 성분인 파낙시돌, 파낙시놀과 파낙시트리올의 사염화탄소로 유도된 마우스와 흰주의 지질과 산화와 효소적 또는 비효소적으로 유도된 시험관내 과산화 지질 형성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 정상 또는 사염화탄소 처리된 마우스와 흰쥐에 대한 폴리아세틸렌의 효과를 혈청과 간 과산화 지질수준과 혈청효소 (GOT, GPT, LDH) 활성을 측정함으로써 관찰하였다. 간 마이크로좀 내 cytochrome P-450 함량과 aniline hydroxylase와 aminopyrine demethylase 활성도 측정되었다. 정상 마우스에 폴리아세틸렌을 처리한 경우 파낙시놀의 경우를 제외하곤 간과 혈청의 과산화 지질 형성과 혈청효소들의 활성에 변화가 없었으며, 파낙시놀은 간의 지질 과산화를 억제하였다, 폴리아세틸렌 성분들은 사염화탄소로 유도된 간의 과산화지질형성에 대한 보호작용을 나타내었고, 혈청지질과산화 수준을 낮추었다. 또한 사염화탄소로 유도된 LDH의 혈액내 유출에 대한 보호작용이 있으나, 혈청 GOT와 GPT 수준엔 영향을 주지 않았다. 사염화탄소는 cytochrome P-450 함량과 aniline hydroxylase, aminopyrine demethylase 활성을 낮추었으며, 이 경우 폴리아세틸렌은 효과를 나타내지 못하였다. 반면, 사염화탄소 없이 폴리아세틸렌만 처리한경우, 파낙시돌과 파낙시놀은 aniline hydroxylase를 세폴리아세틸렌성분은 aminopyrine demethylase를 유도하였으며, cytochrome P-450엔 영향을 주지 않았다. 시험관내 간 마이크로좀의 지질 과산화는 폴리아세틸렌 첨가시 농도에 비례하여 억제되었다.

Background: The mechanism of peripheral axon transport in neuropathic pain is still unclear. Chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13) and its receptor (C-X-C chemokine receptor type 5, CXCR5) as well as GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1) play an important role in the development of pain. The aim of this study was to explore the axonal transport of CXCL13/CXCR5 and GAT-1 with the aid of the analgesic effect of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) in rats. Methods: Chronic constriction injury (CCI) rat models were established. BTX-A was administered to rats through subcutaneous injection in the hind paw. The pain behaviors in CCI rats were measured by paw withdrawal threshold and paw withdrawal latencies. The levels of CXCL13/CXCR5 and GAT-1 were measured by western blots. Results: The subcutaneous injection of BTX-A relieved the mechanical allodynia and heat hyperalgesia induced by CCI surgery and reversed the overexpression of CXCL13/CXCR5 and GAT-1 in the spinal cord, dorsal root ganglia (DRG), sciatic nerve, and plantar skin in CCI rats. After 10 mmol/L colchicine blocked the axon transport of sciatic nerve, the inhibitory effect of BTX-A disappeared, and the levels of CXCL13/CXCR5 and GAT-1 in the spinal cord and DRG were reduced in CCI rats. Conclusions: BTX-A regulated the levels of CXCL13/CXCR5 and GAT-1 in the spine and DRG through axonal transport. Chemokines (such as CXCL13) may be transported from the injury site to the spine or DRG through axonal transport. Axon molecular transport may be a target to enhance pain management in neuropathic pain.
