Congenital aniridia is a rare ocular malformation that presents with severe hypoplasia of the iris and various ocular manifestations. Most cases of congenital aniridia are known to be related to mutations in the paired box gene-6 (PAX6 ), which is an essential gene in eye development. Herein, we report a familial case of autosomal dominant congenital aniridia with four affected members in 3 consecutive generations and describe the detailed ophthalmologic findings for one of these members. As expected, mutational analysis revealed a nonsense mutation (p.Ser122*) in the PAX6 gene. Thus, our findings reiterate the importance of PAX6 mutations in congenital aniridia.

In order to detect poisonous or physiologically active constituents in the Higher Fungi growing in Korea, forty three species including two varieties were collected in Kyung Ki and Chung Cheong Buk Do Provinces and subjected to systematic extraction with two kinds of organic solvents. The extracts were examined for alkaloid by adding alkaloid reagents. Of these fungi, three species, Geaster fimbriatus, Lampteromyces japonicus and Pseudocolus schellenbergiae, gave positive confirmatory tests.

This study uses distributed parameter systems as the spatial discretization technique, modelling in lumped parameter systems, and applies orthogonal transform and the Picard's iteration method to high order partial differential equations and matrix partial differential equations. In exercising optimal control of distributed parameter systems, excellent consequences are found without using the existing decentralized control or hierarchical control method.

We tested whether ginsenosides $Rg_3$-standardized ginseng extract (RGE) has anti-stress effects in restraint-stressed animals. RGE increased time spent in the open arms and open arm entries in the elevated plus-maze test. In addition, RGE blocked the reduction of center zone distance and stereotypes behaviors in the open-field test. RGE also increased head dips in stressed mice, indicating anxiolytic-like effects. Stress decreased movement distance and duration, burrowing, and rearing frequency but increased face washing and grooming. RGE significantly reversed burrowing and rearing activity in stressed mice. In addition, we measured sleep architecture in restraint stressed rats using EEG recorder. Stress increased rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, but total sleep and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep were not changed. RGE did not affect sleep architecture in stressed rats. These behavioral experiments suggest that RGE has anti-stress effects in restraint-stressed animal models.

Epidermal nevus syndrome is a rare disease consisting of epidermal nevus and multisystem pathologic conditions associated with anomalies in the central nervous system, bone, eye, heart, vasculature and genito-urinary system. Hypophosphatemic rickets has been rarely observed in association with this syndrome. We report a case of hypophosphatemic rickets as sociated with epidermal nevus syndrome with review of the literature. (J Korean Soc Pediatr Nephrol 2005;9:263-268)

Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is a rare neoplasm comprising approximately 1% of all salivary gland neoplasms. Histopathologically, the carcinomas are characterized by a dual cell population of an inner duct-forming epithelium and an outer myoepithelial cell. They are characterized by their variable clinical course and a lack of features that predict clinical outcome. The following report describes our experience with this type of tumor. We suggest that radiation therapy and long term follow-up will be necessary because this tumor have a high risk of locoregional aggressiveness.

Hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) is the most common cause of acute renal failure in young children. It is classically characterized by the triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and uremia. Further, not only is intussusception one of the differential diagnoses of HUS but it may also become a complication during disease progression. We report a case of HUS. preceded by intussusception in a previously healthy 17-month-old boy. The patient presented at the emergency department with bloody stools that developed the day after reduction of intussusception. HUS was diagnosed 4 days after the reduction of intussusception. The patient was provided only supportive care and his laboratory test findings were normal at discharge.

The backbone molecular dynamics of the C-terminal part of the mouse Cdt1 protein (tCdt1, residues 420-557) was studied by high field NMR spectroscopy. The Secondary structure of this protein was suggested by analyzing of chemical shift of backbone atoms with programs TALOS and PECAN, together with NOE connectivities from 3D $^{15}N-HSQC-NOESY$ data. Measurement of dynamic parameters $T_1,\;T_2$ and NOE and limited proteolysis experiment provided information for domain organization of tCdt1(420-557). Analysis of the experimental data showed that the C-terminal part of the tCdt1 has well folded domain for residues 455-553. The residues 420-453 including ${\alpha}-helix$ (432-441) are flexible and probably belong to other functional domain in intact full length Cdt1 protein.
