Effect of chitosan oligo saccharides (COS) on the level of serum lipids, antioxidant enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation was investigated in rats fed with high cholesterol diet for 4 weeks, The rats were divided into three experimental groups that is, high cholesterol diet group (0.5% cholesterol; control). high cholesterol diet and 1.0% or 2.0% COS-supplemented groups (COS I , COS II). Serum total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride level were significantly decreased and relative HDL-cholesterol level in total cholesterol significantly increased in COS II group. Liver TBARS level and activities of SOD and catalase of COS I were also significantly reduced. These results suggest that supplement of chitosan oligosaccharides reduce levels of serum cholesterol and reduce oxidative damage by activating hepatic antioxidative defense system in rats fed with high cholesterol diets.

The C-terminal 393 bp region of the human interleukin-16 (IL-16) gene was cloned and expressed in E. coli along with mammalian cell lines. Recombinant IL-16 expressed from E. coli was 22 kDa on SDS-PAGE and showed 260% of chemoattractant activity at a concentration of $0.1\;{\mu}g/ml$. HeLa, COS, and Neuro-2a cells were transduced by recombinant retrovirus vector pLNC/IL-16/IRES/TK and the intracellular and secreted amounts of IL-16 produced by HeLa/IL-16/TK, COS/IL-16/TK, and Neuro-2a/IL-16/TK cells were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). HeLa/IL-16/TK $(1{\times}10^5)$ and COS/IL-16/TK $(1{\times}10^5)$ cells secreted 36.1 and 13.3 ng of IL-16 for 48 h, respectively. Forty-nine ng and 86.4 ng of IL-16 remained in the cell lysates of HeLa/IL-16/TK and COS/IL-16/TK. Intracellular and secreted amounts of IL-16 from Neuro-2a/IL-16/TK $(5{\times}10^5)$ cells during 24 h cultivation were 50 ng and 3.3 ng, respectively. Also, HeLa and COS cells wee stably transfected with mammalian expression vector pCRIII/IL-16. Both culture media and cell lysates prepared from HeLa/IL-16 cells and COS/IL-16 cells showed chemoattractant activity ranging from 190% to 460% as compared to the control experiment. Expression of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV0tk) gene in pLNC/IL-16/ IRES/TK bicistronic retroviral expression vector was verified by performing a genciclovir (GCV) sensitivity assay. Finally, IL-16 repressed Tat-transactivated human immunodeficiency virus type 1 long terminal repeat (HIV-1 LTR) promoter activity.

The term "P2 sir-associated helper inefficiency" has been used to define the inefficient helper capability of P2 sir mutants for their satellite bacteriophage P4. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors overcoming P2 sir-associated helper inefficiency. At first, we verified whether the P2 cos region containing P4 sid71 cosP2 could overcome P2 sir-associated helper inefficiency with P2 sir3. The result was that P4 sid71 cosP2 could not overcome P2 sir-associated helper inefficiency with P2 sir3. Instead of cos region of P2, the size of the DNA packaged into a $P2_{sir}$-sized head seems to be important for overcoming P2 sir-associated helper inefficiency. In the present work, three kinds of P4 derivatives with packaged DNA sizes between those of P4 ost1 and P4 ost2, were constructed through DNA manipulation. In one P4 derivative, P4 sid71 delRI::apr, the size of the packaged DNA was identified with a CsCl buoyant equilibrium density gradient experiment. According to the burst sizes of the P4 derivatives, they could overcome P2 sir3-associated helper inefficiency. The size of the P4 derivative DNA suitable for packaging into a $P2_{sir3}$-sized head was 28-29 kb.

Background: Propofol (2.6-diisopropylphenol) is a widely used intravenous anesthetic agent for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia during surgeries and sedation for ICU patients. Propofol has a structural similarity to the endogenous antioxidant vitamin E and exhibits antioxidant activities.13) However, the mechanism of propofol on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury has yet to be fully elucidated. We investigated how P-PostC influences the autophagy and cell death, a cellular damage occurring during the H/R injury. Methods: The groups were randomly divided into the following groups: Control: cells were incubated in normoxia (5% CO2, 21% O2, and 74% N2) without propofol treatment. H/R: cells were exposed to 24 h of hypoxia (5% CO2, 1% O2, and 94% N2) followed by 12 h of reoxygenation (5% CO2, 21% O2, and 74% N2). H/R + P-PostC: cells post-treated with propofol were exposed to 24 h of hypoxia followed by 12 h of reoxygenation. 3-MA + P-PostC: cells pretreated with 3-MA and post-treated propofol were exposed to 24 h of hypoxia followed by 12 h of reoxygenation Results: The results of our present study provides a new direction of research on mechanisms of propofol-mediated cytoprotection. There are three principal findings of these studies. First, the application of P-PostC at the onset of reoxygenation after hypoxia significantly increased COS-7 cell viability. Second, the cellular protective effect of P-PostC in H/R induced COS-7 cells was probably related to activation of intra-cellular autophagy. And third, the autophagy pathway inhibitor 3-MA blocked the protective effect of P-PostC on cell viability, suggesting a key role of autophagy in cellular protective effect of P-PostC. Conclusions: These data provided evidence that P-PostC reduced cell death in H/R model of COS-7 cells, which was in agreement with the protection by P-PostC demonstrated in isolated COS-7 cells exposed to H/R injury. Although the this study could not represent the protection by P-PostC in vivo, the data demonstrate another model in which endogenous mechanisms evoked by P-PostC protected the COS-7 cells exposed to H/R injury from cell death.

The physicochemical and sensory qualities of pumpkin jams, in which sucrose was replaced with oligosaccharides, were investigated during storage at 20$^{\circ}C$. pumpkin jam was prepared with steamed grind pumpkin, mixed with either sucrose only(50％), corn syrup(COS, sucrose 30％＋COS 20％), fructooligosaccharide (FTO, sucrose 30％＋FTO 20％), isomaltooligo saccharide (IMO, sucrose 30％＋IMO 20％), or galactooligo-saccharide(GTO, sucrose 30％＋GTO 20％). The final sweetness of each pumpkin jam was 64$^{\circ}$ Brix. During 60days of storage there were no differences in acidity and pH among the treatments. Reducing sugar content was higher in the pumpkin jam containing COS compared to 次e others. During storage Lightness(Hunter L), redness(a value) and yellowness(b value) increased, of which L and b values were the highest in COS, and the a value were higher in sucrose compared to the other sugars. Adhesiveness and hardness of textural properties were the highest in sucrose. Sensory evaluation results showed that the mean scores of over-all acceptability during storage did not significantly decrease until the 30th day of storage, compared to the freshly made jams. Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of pumpkin jams during storage in a PCA plot were comprised of the first principal component (99.44％) and the second principal component (0.54％).

Background: This study investigated the effect of remifentanil pretreatment on Cos-7 cells exposed to oxidative stress, and the influence of remifentanil on intracellular autophagy and apoptotic cell death. Methods: Cells were divided into 4 groups: (1) Control: non-pretreated cells were incubated in normoxia (5% $CO_2$, 21% $O_2$, and 74% $N_2$). (2) $H_2O_2$: non-pretreated cells were exposed to $H_2O_2$ for 24 h. (3) RPC+$H_2O_2$: cells pretreated with remifentanil were exposed to $H_2O_2$ for 24 h. (4) 3-MA+RPC+$H_2O_2$: cells pretreated with 3-Methyladenine (3-MA) and remifentanil were exposed to $H_2O_2$ for 24 h. We determined the cell viability of each group using an MTT assay. Hoechst staining and FACS analysis of Cos-7 cells were performed to observe the effect of remifentanil on apoptosis. Autophagy activation was determined by fluorescence microscopy, MDC staining, and AO staining. The expression of autophagy-related proteins was observed using western blotting. Results: Remifentanil pretreatment increased the viability of Cos-7 cells exposed to oxidative stress. Hoechst staining and FACS analysis revealed that oxidative stress-dependent apoptosis was suppressed by the pretreatment. Additionally, fluorescence microscopy showed that remifentanil pretreatment led to autophagy-induction in Cos-7 cells, and the expression of autophagy-related proteins was increased in the RPC+$H_2O_2$ group. Conclusions: The study showed that remifentanil pretreatment stimulated autophagy and increased viability in an oxidative stress model of Cos-7 cells. Therefore, we suggest that apoptosis was activated upon oxidative stress, and remifentanil preconditioning increased the survival rate of the cells by activating autophagy.

Conchiolin is a complex protein which is secreted by the mollusc's outer epithelium to be the organic basis of mollusc shell. This study is to investigate a potential anti-inflammatory activity of conchiolin of oyster shell (COS). We tested the effects of COS on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE 2) in a murine macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7. COS inhibited production of NO and PGE2 in a dose dependent manner and also decreased the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$ ($TNF-{\alpha}$) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). These results suggest that COS can inhibit production of pro-inflammatory mediators and might be a useful source to treat inflammation.
