  • Objectives : This study was aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Bogijetongtanggammi-bang (BJTG) on injury of the peripheral nerve tissues. Methods : Rats were divided into 2 groups. The rats of the first group were injected with Taxol (1.25 mg/kg) to their sciatic nerves, once each. The sciatic nerves of the rats of the second group were crushed by forcept for 30 seconds. Rats were administered with BJTG (400 mg/kg) or 0.9% saline for 5 days. Changes of DRG neurons, Schwann cells, Cdc2, caspase 3. phospho-p44/42 Erk1/2, phospho-vimentin and ${\beta}1$ integrin were observed by fluorescent microscope and analysed in western blot. Results : In Taxol-treated SD rat models, BJTG up-regulated neurite outgrowth, Schwann cells, Cdc2 and phospho-Erk1/2, and down-regulated caspase 3. In pressure-injured rat models, BJTG up-regulated axons of sciatic nerve, Schwann cells, Cdc2, phospho-vimentin, ${\beta}1$ integrin, and down-regulated caspase 3. Conclusions : Taken together, BJTG was promotive of nerve regeneration on SNI as well as Taxol-induced nerve injury. BJTG had a pharmaceutical property enhancing recovery of injured peripheral nerves and could be a candidate for drug development after further research.

  • The meiotic process from the primordial stage to zygote in female germ cells is mainly adjusted by post-transcriptional regulation of pre-existing maternal mRNA and post-translational modification of proteins. Several key proteins such as the cell cycle regulator, Cdk1/cyclin B, are post-translationally modified for precise control of meiotic progression. The second messenger (cAMP), kinases (PKA, Akt, MAPK, Aurora A, CaMK II, etc), phosphatases (Cdc25, Cdc14), and other proteins (G-protein coupled receptor, phosphodiesterase) are directly or indirectly involved in this process. Many proteins, such as CPEB, maskin, eIF4E, eIF4G, 4E-BP, and 4E-T, post-transcriptionally regulate mRNA via binding to the cap structure at the 5' end of mRNA or its 3' untranslated region (UTR) to generate a closed-loop structure. The 3' UTR of the transcript is also implicated in post-transcriptional regulation through an association with proteins such as CPEB, CPSF, GLD-2, PARN, and Dazl to modulate poly(A) tail length. RNA interfering is a new regulatory mechanism of the amount of mRNA in the mouse oocyte. This review summarizes information about post-transcriptional and post-translational regulation during mouse oocyte meiotic maturation.

  • Forty-five adults with type IV-A choledochal cysts (CDC) who underwent extrahepatic cyst excision from January 2013 to December 2021 were followed up for a median interval of 25 months (range, 2 to 10 years) to observe the long-term complications in the remaining intrahepatic cyst. Late complications in varying combinations were seen in 10 patients, which included cholangitis and/or intrahepatic stones in 9 patients, intrahepatic bile duct stenosis with stones in 2 patients, anastomotic stricture in 6 patients, and left lobar atrophy with intrahepatic stones in 3 patients. Out of 6 patients who required re-do hepaticojejunostomy (HJ), three patients had left lobe atrophy with patent HJ anastomosis and a recurrent attack of cholangitis on follow-up at 3, 8, and 10 years. Complications occur frequently after extrahepatic cyst excision for type IV-A CDC and require a long-term follow-up.

  • Cordycepin은 Cordyceps militaris에서 처음 유래된 nucleoside adenosine 유도체의 일종으로 면역증강 및 항암활성을 포함한 다양한 약리 기능이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 LNCap 인체 전립선 암세포 모델을 이용하여 cordycepin에 의한 항암활성 기전을 연구하였다. Cordycepin 처리에 따라 LNCap 세포는 처리 농도 의존적으로 증식이 억제되었으며, 이는 apoptosis 유발과 연관성이 있음을 poly ADP-ribose polymerase의 단편화 현상과 Annexin V 염색에 의한 정량적 분석으로 확인하였다. Cordycepin 처리에 따른 flow cytometric analysis 결과로서 cordycepin이 세포주기 G2/M기 정체 현상을 유발하였음을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 cyclin B1 및 cyclin A의 발현 감소와 연관성이 있었다. 또한 cordycepin이 처리된 LNCap 세포에서 cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p21Waf1/Cip1의 발현이 증가되었지만, CDK2, CDC2 및 Cdc25C의 발현에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않았으며, cordycepin에 의하여 증가된 p21 단백질은 CDK2 및 CDC2와의 복합체를 형성하고 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 LNCap 전립선 암세포에서 cordycepin에 의한 G2/M 및 apoptosis 유발은 p53 비존적인 CDK inhibitor p21의 발현 증가가 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 보여주는 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the anti-proliferative mechanism by Trichosanthes kirilowii (TCK) in MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cell. In this study, we used human breast cancer cell line, Michigan cancer foundation-7 cells (MCF-7 cells). They were co-incubated with 30~200 ${\mu}g$/ml TCK for 48 hours, and cell viability was measured by Water-soluble tetrazolium salt-1 (WST-1) assay. After MCF-7 cells were exposed to 60 ${\mu}g$/ml of TCK for 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours, We performed flow analysis cytometry sorting(FACS) and western blot analysis. We investigated the effect of dose-dependent cell growth inhibition by TCK, which could be proved by WST-1 assay. Also, flow cytometry analysis showed that TCK increased percentage of subG1 phase and G2/M phase cell cycle. In addition, TCK induced apoptosis through the expression of caspase-9, -3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(PARP) activation. Moreover, we showed that ATM-dependent G2/M phase arrest by DNA damage and phosphorylation of chk2, cdc25C, cdc2(Tyr15). Taken together, these results suggest that by G2/M phase arrest through DNA damage and inducing of apoptosis through intrinsic pathway, TCK may have potential tumor suppressor in breast cancer.

  • HnRNPK is a multifunctional protein that participates in chromatin remodeling, transcription, RNA splicing, mRNA stability and translation. Here, we uncovered the function of hnRNPK in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. hnRNPK was mutated in the C2C12 myoblast cell line using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. A decreased proliferation rate was observed in hnRNPK-mutated cells, suggesting an impaired proliferation phenotype. Furthermore, increased G2/M phase, decreased S phase and increased sub-G1 phase cells were detected in the hnRNPK-mutated cell lines. The expression analysis of key cell cycle regulators indicated mRNA of Cyclin A2 was significantly increased in the mutant myoblasts compared to the control cells, while Cyclin B1, Cdc25b and Cdc25c were decreased sharply. In addition to the myoblast proliferation defect, the mutant cells exhibited defect in myotube formation. The myotube formation marker, myosin heavy chain (MHC), was decreased sharply in hnRNPK-mutated cells compared to control myoblasts during differentiation. The deficiency in hnRNPK also resulted in the repression of Myog expression, a key myogenic regulator during differentiation. Together, our data demonstrate that hnRNPK is required for myoblast proliferation and differentiation and may be an essential regulator of myoblast function.

  • Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is a treatment modality whereby chemotherapy is used as the initial treatment of HNSCC in patients presenting with advanced cancer that cannot be treated by other means. It leads to shrinkage of tumours to an operable size without significant compromise to essential oro-facial organs of the patients. The molecular mechanisms behind shrinkage due to NACT is not well elucidated. Materials and Methods: Eleven pairs of primary HNSCCs and adjacent normal epithelium, before and after chemotherapy were screened for cell proliferation and apoptosis. This was followed by immunohistochemical analysis of some cell cycle (LIMD1, RBSP3, CDC25A, CCND1, cMYC, RB, pRB), DNA repair (MLH1, p53) and apoptosis (BAX, BCL2) associated proteins in the same set of samples. Results: Significant decrease in proliferation index and increase in apoptotic index was observed in post-therapy tumors compared to pre-therapy. Increase in the RB/pRB ratio, along with higher expression of RBSP3 and LIMD1 and lower expression of cMYC were observed in post-therapy tumours, while CCND1 and CDC25A remained unchanged. While MLH1 remained unchanged, p53 showed higher expression in post-therapy tumors, indicating inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. Increase in the BAX/BCL2 ratio was observed in post-therapy tumours, indicating up-regulation of apoptosis in response to therapy. Conclusions: Thus, modulation of the G1/S cell cycle regulatory proteins and apoptosis associated proteins might play an important role in tumour shrinkage due to NACT.

  • The effect of human MutY homolog (hMYH) on the activation of checkpoint proteins in response to hydroxyurea (HU) and ultraviolet (UV) treatment was investigated in hMYH-disrupted HEK293 cells. hMYH-disrupted cells decreased the phosphorylation of Chk1 upon HU or UV treatment and increased the phosphorylation of Cdk2 and the amount of Cdc25A, but not Cdc25C. In siMYH-transfected cells, the increased rate of phosphorylated Chk1 upon HU or UV treatment was lower than that in siGFP-transfected cells, meaning that hMYH was involved in the activation mechanism of Chk1 upon DNA damage. The phosphorylation of ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein (ATR) upon HU or UV treatment was decreased in hMYH-disrupted HEK293 and HaCaT cells. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments showed that hMYH was immunoprecipitated by anti-ATR. These results suggest that hMYH may interact with ATR and function as a mediator of Chk1 phosphorylation in response to DNA damage.

  • 목적: K562 세포의 방사선에 의한 세포 사망은 mitotic catastrophe 현상이 위주로 나타나지만 herbimycin A (HMA)에 의하여 apoptosis 반응이 촉진되는 반면 genisteln에 의하여 두 가지 형태의 세포사망이 모두 억제된다. 본 연구에서는 HMA와 genistein에 의한 K562세포의 방사선 유도 세포주기 조절 변화와 세포 사망 양상의 연관성을 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법: 지수증식기의 KS62 세포에 6 MV 선형가속기(Clinac 1,m C, Varian)를 이용하여 200~300 cGy/min의 선량률로 10 Gy를 균일하게 조사하였다. HMA와 genistein은 각각 250 nM와 25$\mu$M농도로 방사선 조사 후 즉시 투여하였다. 실험에서는 세포주기, 오절인자의 발현 및 활성, 노화 및 분화정도 등에 있어서의 시간에 따른 변화를 조사하였다. 결과: 방사선 단독조사에서 KS62세포는 G2기의 정체를 보였으나 정상적인 053을 가지는 세포와는 달리 지속적인 세포주기의 정체를 보이지 않았다. G2정체가 유지되는 동안 cyclin Bl의 점진적인 증가를 관찰할 수 있었으며, 이는 염색체의 복제가 완료되지 않은 상태에서 M기로 진행하여 미성숙한 염색체 응축과 mitotic catastrophe 현상이 나타나는 것과 일치한다. 방사선 조사와 함께 HMA를 투여한 경우에는 G2정체가 빠르게 해소되었으며 동시에 Gl기에서 세포가 정체되는 양상을 보였다. 세포주기 조절인자 cdc2 kinase 활성 증가와 cyclln I와 A 발현 및 CDK2 활성의 감소 등의 현상으로 설명되며, 이는 apoptosis의 증가와 연관성을 갖는다. 반면 genistein의 경우에는 cyclin Bl과 떨cfsc 발현 및 cdc2활성이 모두 감소하는 등 G2정체를 계속 유지하였다. 이와 함께 방사선에 의한 노화와 megakaryocyte로의 분화도 지속되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 결론: HMA와 genistein에 의한 KS62세포의 방사선 유도 세포사망의 변화는 세포주기 조절과 밀접하게 연관되어 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 다양한 방사선 유도 세포사망의 기전을 이해하는 데 독창적인 모델을 제공하며, 방사선을 이용한 암 치료법의 개발에 새로운 표적을 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
