Background and Objective: Coptidis Rhizoma is a medicinal herb known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of CR on the experimental burn elicitation in vitro and in vivo. Material and Methods: In order to know the antioxidant effect on skin cell of mice after burn elicitation, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was measured. In vitro, the RAW 264.7 macrophage cells were treated with lipopolysaccharides for experimental inflammation. iNOS mRNA expression was observed after CR-treatment. In order to know effects on the skin regeneration in the burned mice, we counted the nitric oxide (NO) in blood. We also observed the histological structure in the epidermal basal layer and the dermal section, and we studied changes of angiogenesis in the capillaries surrounding the basal layer and dermal papilla. The changes of transcription of iNOS mRNA (inducible nitric oxide synthase mRNA) and changes of NF-${\kappa}$B (nuclear factor ${\kappa}$B) p65 positive reaction were also observed to investigate the changes of the stress in the skin. Results: The results indicated that CR has significant effects on the antioxidant effect on skin cells of mice after burn elicitation by increasing SOD activity in the in vitro test. It seemed that CR decreased the amount of NF-${\kappa}$B which induced the iNOS mRNA dose-dependently and suppress activating NO and angiogenesis. Furthermore, CR facilitated the process of skin recovery after experimental burn. Conclusion: CR can be applied for burned skin via antioxidant effect and skin regeneration.

This study was conducted to elucidate the pathogenesis of Aujeszky's disease virus(ADV) by histopathologic examination. The first Korean ADV Isolate, which was isolated from piglets with clinical signs of Aujeszky's disease in Yangsan(YS) county, Kyungnam province, was inoculated into 32 days old piglets with a dose of $10^{5.9}$$TCID_{50}/ml$ through intranasal or intramuscular route. These piglets were sacrificed at intervals of every 24hrs for 8 days. The virulence of YS strain was determined by the observation of clinical signs, gross findings, and histopathologic changes in tissues. The virus recovery test was performed from brain, spleen, lung and tonsil in cell culture. The pathogenesis of YS strain was determined by the observation of histopathologlc lesions in CNS and neuronal tracts. The major clinical signs were fever, anorexia, dyspnea, constipation, tremor, ataxia, circling movement, hindleg paralysis and salivation. The clinical signs were more severe in piglets of the group inoculated intranasally than those of the intramuscularly inoculated gorup. Lymphocytopenia was detected on day 5 to day 6 postinoculation (PI). The ADV was recovered from the tissue homogenates of tonsil, lung, spleen and cerebrum in cell culture. The highest virus titer was detected from tonsil between day 6 and day 7 PI. Reddish sublobar consolidation foci were scattered in the apical and cardiac lobes of lung. Although yellowish necrotic foci were detected in tonsil and liver, hemorrhagic lesions were mainly observed in heart, kidney and lymph nodes. Histopathologically, degeneration and necrosis of nerve cells, nonsuppurative meningoe-ncephalitis, nodular gliosis and perivascular cuffings were observed in CNS. Multifocal fibronecrotic foci were observed in lung, liver, lymph nodes and spleen. The major pathologic changes were detected in the midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata. Eosinophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies were mainly observed in epithelia and /or macrophages of tonsil, liver, lung, spleen and submandibular lymph nodes, and neurons of brain, respectively. Observation of viral particles at various stages of replication were possible from the endothelial cells of the alveolar capillaries and tonsillar crypt epithelia by transmission electron microscope.

An epidemiologic study on pleuropneumonia in the slaughter pigs(Chonan and Asan area, Chungnam province, Korea) during the period of January 1994 through December 1995 was conducted. Isolation of A pleuropneumoniae was attempted in 425 pigs with pneumonic lesions. Biochemical properties, antimicrobial susceptibility, serotypes and pathogenicity of isolated A pleuropneumoniae were investigated. In addition, outer membrane protein(OMP) of the Isolates were extracted to determine its properties and immunogenicity in both mice and piglets The results obtained through this study were summarized as followed ; 1. Of 3, 395 slaughter pigs, pleuropneumonia was observed in 425 pigs(10.6%). A pleuropneumoniae was isolated from 22 pigs(5.2%) out of 425 pigs with pneumonic lesions. The biochemical properties of all isolates were same as those of reference A pleuropneumoniae strain. Among 22 isolates, 9, 1 and 12 isolates were serovar 2, 3 and 5, respectively. 2. The results of antimicrobial susceptibility test revealed that the isolates showed high susceptibility to ciprofloxacin and cephalothin, moderate susceptibility to amikacin, gentamicin, kanamycin and streptomycin, and low susceptibility to erythromycin, tylosin and sulfadimethoxin. 3. The isolates were varied in pathogenicity to mice. Median lethal dose of LE9402(serovar 2) and LE9511(serovar 5) were $9.2{\times}10^7$ CFU and $2.8{\times}10^7$%CFU, respectively. Specific pneumonic lesions were observed from the infected mice with clinical signs. Bacteria recovery rate was high in the lung, but low In heart blood and tracheas. 4. Serovar 2 was found to be more pathogenic than serovar 5 in guinea pig. Mortality on guinea pigs inoculated with serovar 2($5.4{\times}10^8-5.4{\times}10^6$CFU) and serovar 5($2.8{\times}10^8-2.8{\times}10^6$ CFU) was 20~40% and 40~80%, respectively. A severe hemorrhagic lesions and focal pneumonic lesions were observed from dead guinea pigs. Bacteria recovery rate was relatively higher in the lung than that of other organs. 5. In the SDS-PAGE analysis, OMP-enriched fractions of both isolates and reference strains contain common peptide bands equivalent to molecular weight of 17, 27, 42, 52 and 95Kd. In addition to common peptide bands, the bands which are specific to each isolate were also observed. The profiles of Sephadex G25 fractions showed 3 major peaks. The common peptide bands which were observed by SDS-PAGE of the crude OMPs were found in the peaks 1 and 2. 6. The OMPs extracted from serovar 2(LE9402) and serovar 5(LE9511) provided high level of protection in mice(70~80%) and pigs(100%). All animals inoculated with OMPs were seroconverted, showing micro-agglutination titer of 640 to 1280.

APA-01, which is an aqueous extract of five Chinese herbs, is a modified formula of Huoxiang-Zhengqi-San. The effect of new herb extract on immune response was investigated. The parameter examined to assess apparent immune response of APA-01 in mice included changes of body weight, relative weight of immune organs, cell proliferation and cytokine gene expression. The body weight and relative weight of immune organs were not significantly changed among the tested groups. In the spleen cell prolijeration assay, APA-01 increased the cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Methotrexate (MTX), an agent of immune suppression, inhibited the spleen cell proliferation (IC/sub 50/: 800㎍/㎖). However, APA-01 significantly inhibited the suppression of mouse spleen cell proliferation. Therefore, it seems that APA-01 has a reducing effect of immune suppression. Immunomodulatory effect of APA-01 was further investigated using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in mouse spleen cells. In RT-PCR test, APA-01 enhanced the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA in a dose-dependent manner. In spite of immune suppression by MTX, COX-2 mRNA was induced by co-treatment with APA-01. These results suggest that APA-01 stimulates the proliferation of spleen cells, regulates the expression of COX-2 mRNA, and accelerates the recovery of inhibition of spleen cell proliferation induced by MTX, thus providing the immunological basis for clinical benefit of APA-01.

The bioequivalence of two nilvadipine products was evaluated in 16 normal male volunteers (age 22-32 yr, body weight 57-80 kg) following sidle oral dose. Test product was Overca $l_{R}$ tablet (Choong-Wae Pharm. Corp., Korea) and reference product was Nivadi $l_{R}$ tablet (Hyundai Pharm. Corp., Korea). Both products contain 4 mg of nilvadipine. One tablet of the test or the reference product was administered to the volunteers, respectively, by randomized two period cross-over study (2$\times$2 Latin square method). The determination of nilvadipine was accomplished using a validated capillary column GC with electron-capture detection. As a result of the assay validation, the quantiflcation of nilvadipine in human plasma by this technique was possible down to 0.5 ng/ml using 1 ml of plasma. Absolute overall recovery from five replicate analyses of nilvadipine-spiked sample were 88.4$\pm$ 10.24% (mean$\pm$ 5.D.) for human plasma of 10 ng/ml. The coefficients of variation (C.V.) were less than 20% and the actual concentration of nilvadipine measured by GC ranged from 80 to 99% in all plasma. Average drug concentrations at each sampling time and pharmacokinetic parameters calculated were not significantly different between two products (p>0.05); the area under the curve from time zero to 8 hr (AUCo-$_{8 hr}$) (22.8$\pm$5.90 vs 22.2$\pm$6.10 ng . hr/ml), maximum plasma concentration ( $C_{max}$) (10.0$\pm$2.85 vs 9.3$\pm$3.28 ng/ml) and time to reach maximum plasma concentration ( $T_{max}$) (1.2$\pm$0.31 vs 1.3 $\pm$0.47 hr). The differences of mean AU $Co_{8hr}$ $C_{max}$, and $T_{max}$ between the two products (2.25, 7.65, and 10.30%, respectively) were less than 20%. The power (1-$\beta$) and treaeent difference (7) for AU $Co_{8hr}$, and $C_{max}$ were more than 0.8 and less than 0.2, respectively. Although the power for Tmax was under 0.8, Tm\ulcorner of the two products was not significantly different from each other (p>0. 05). These results suggest that the bioavailability of Overeat tablet is not significantly different from that of Nivadil tablet. Therefore, two products are bioequivalent based on the current results.sults.lts.lts.lts.

비글견에서 remifentanil/ketamine 점적 투여 병용마취법과 remifentanil/propofol 점적 투여 병용마취법이 심폐기능에 미치는 영향에 대하여 비교평가하였다. 14 마리의 비글견을 이용하였다. 실험견은 acepromazine (0.1 mg/kg, 피하)과 medetomidine (20 ${\mu}g$/kg, 정맥내)으로 전처치하고, Group P는 정맥 내 propofol 1 mg/kg, Group K는 정맥 내 ketamine 5 mg/kg으로 마취 유도 하고, 이 후 실험군별로 고정된 용량의 remifentanil (0.5 ${\mu}g$/kg/min)과 ketamine 0.1 mg/kg/min 또는 propofol 0.3 mg/kg/min을 3 시간 동안 투여하였다 (Group K와 Group P). 동맥혈압, 심박수, 호흡 수, 혈액가스분석과 마취회복기 동안의 행동변화를 측정하였다. 또한 toe-web clamping 검사를 통해 마취 깊이를 평가하였다. 외과적 마취기는 두 군 모두에서 전 시간 동안 유지가 되었다. Group K의 수축기 동맥혈압, 평균 동맥혈압, 동맥산소 분압, 동맥 산소 포화도는 Group P에 비해 정상 범위 내에서 현저히 높았으며 Group K의 이산화탄소 분압은 Group P에 비해 현저히 낮았다. 그러나 이완기 동맥혈압, 심박수, 호흡수에서는 현저한 차이가 없었다. 점적투여 중단시점부터 발관까지의 평균시간은 Group K에서 현저히 감소되었지만, 평균 sitting time은 Group P에서 현저히 감소되었다. 평균 head-up time과 평균 walking time은 현저한 차이가 없었다. Group K에서는 약간의 근강직, 머리 흔듬, 혀로 핥는 동작이 회복기에 관찰되었다. 결론적으로, Group K가 Group P보다 심폐 기능에서 더 좋았다. 즉, remifentanil/ketamine을 이용한 점적투여 병용마취법이 remifentanil/propofol을 이용한 점적투여 병용마취법 보다 3 시간의 마취 유지에서 보다 나은 방법으로 판단되었다.

목적 : 임상에서 발생빈도가 높은 위선암, 폐선암, 망막세포종, 자궁경부 편평상피암의 4가지 인 체암세포주(MKN-45, PC-14, Y-79, HeL)를 이용하여 방사선조사후 세포생존분획 및 세포생존곡선의 모양을 결정하는 지표를 구하고 방사선조사후 손상 회복정도를 측정하여 이들 여러 지표간의 상관관계 여부를 구명하기 위하여 본실험을 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 :각 세포주의 방사선감수성을 보기 위하여 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 및 10Gy의 방사선을 1 회 조사하였고 방사선조사후 준치사손상 회복정도를 보기 위하여 5Gy씩 2회의 방사선조사를 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 및 24시간 간격으로 시행하였다. 세포의 생존분획은 $Sperman-K\"{a}rbor$ 방법으로 세포집락형성능력을 측정하여 산출하였으며 생존곡선의 수학적 분석은 linear-quadratic(LQ), multitarget-single hit(MS) 모형과 mean inactivation $dose(\v{D})$를 이용하였다. 결과 : 방사선조사후의 세포생존 실험결과 2Gy에서의 세포생존분획(SF2)은 0.174에서 0.85까지 다양하게 나타났으며 Y-79는 유의하게 낮은 SF2를, PC-14는 높은 SF2를 나타내었다(p<0.05, t-test). LQ model로 분석한 방사선 세포생존곡선의 분석결과 Y-79, MKN-45, HeLa, PC-14에서 ${\alpha}$가 각각 0.603, 0.355, 0.275, 0.102이었고 ${\beta}$는 각각 0.005, 0.016, 0.025, 0.027이었다. MS model로 분석한 결과는 Y-79, MKN-45, HeLa, PC-14에서 Do가 각각 1.59, 1.84, 1.88, 2.52였고 n은 0.97, 1.46, 1.52, 1.69를 보였다. 한편 Gauss-Laguerre방법으로 계산한 $\v{D}$는 Y-79, MKN-45, HeLa, PC-14에서 각각 1.62, 2.37, 2.61, 3.95였다. SF2가 감소함에 따라 ${\alpha}$값은 증가하였고 Do, $\v{D}$값은 감소하였으며 이들간의 Pearson 상관계수는 각각 0.953, 0.993, 0.999였다. (p<0.05). 분할조사에 의한 준치사손상 회복정도는 약 4시간 내외에 포화상태에 도달하였으며 포화상태의 recovery ratio(RR)는 2에서 3.79 사이였다. RR은 방사선감수성의 지표인 SF2, ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, Do, $\v{D}$과 통계학적으로 유의한 상관관계를 나타내지 않았다. 결론 : 본 연구의 결과 네가지 인체상피암세포주의 내재적 발사선감수성은 서로 상이하였으며 Y-79가 가장 민감하였고, MKN-45와 HeLa는 각각 중등도의 방사선감수성을 나타냈으며 PC-14는 방사선감수성이 가장 낮았다. 이와같은 감수성의 차이는 SF2, ${\alpha}$, Do와 $\v{D}$의 차이로 나타났으며 띠들간에는 밀접한 상관관계를 나타내었다. 방사선에 의한 준치사손상 회복력은 MKN-45와 HeLa에서 높게 나타났고 회복력과 방사선감수성과는 무관하였다. 각 암세포주에 따르는 이와같은 지표들은 향후 방사선치료 효과를 높이기 위한 방사선생물학 실험의 기초 자료로서 이용되어 질 수 있을 것이다.
