The factors affecting thermostability and reactivation of peroxidase from soybean sprouts(Glycine max L.) were investigated. The enzyme was the most stable at pH 7.0 and below 60oC. Thermostability of the enzyme was reduced by addition of sodium chloride and saccharides. The partially inactivated enzyme by heat treatment at 75oC for 10 min was reactivated up to 211.5% at the optimal reactivation condition. The optimal pH and temperature for reactivation of the enzyme were pH 9.0 and 40oC, respectively. The reactivation was completely inhibited by addition of sulfhydryl reagent such as L cysteine.

We studied the inhibitory effect of Green Life Enzyme (GLE) on compound 48/80-induced anaphylactic response in a murine model. GLE inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylactic shock at the dose of 10 g/kg by 87.5%. When GLE was given as pre-treatment at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1.0 g/kg, it inhibited passive cutaneous anaphylaxis activated by anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) IgE. In addition, GLE (0.1 mg/ml) inhibited anti-DNP IgE-induced tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$ production from mast cells by 69% compared to saline value. These results indicate that GLE may possess anti-anaphylactic and anti-inflammatory activity.

The Hafnia alvei aspartase activity with acetic anhydride treatment gradually increased and reached 7.5-fold that of the native one. The activity of the acetylated aspartase was a little higher than that of the native enzyme, indicating that the cooperativity between a substrate and enzyme is increased. The optimum temperature of the native asparatse was $45^{\circ}C$, and that of the acetylated enzyme shifted to $40^{\circ}C.$ The pH vs. the activity profile of the acetylated asparatse was also different from that of the native enzyme. The initial velocity pattern of the acetylated aspartase intersects to the left of the ordinate, indicating the sequential kinetic mechanism other than a rapid equilibrium ordered one. The reciprocal plots for aspartate of the native aspartase were curved, but those of the acetylated aspartase were linear, indicating the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The helical content of the acetylated aspartase was rather decreased to $9{\textperthousand}$ than that $(63{\textperthousand})$ of the native one.

7S globulin has been isolate from the defatted soybean meal(glycine max,. merill) by Sepharose-6B column chromatography and CM-Sephadex column chromatography. Coagulum of 7S globulin formed at a temperature of $65^{\circ}C$ in microbial enzyme treatment. In order to characterize the structure of the coagulum, three kinds of coagulum (enzyme-, calcium-and acid-induced coagulum)were compared througth the Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). The network structure was found to be of two levels. First, there was an appearance on the molecular level in the form of strands. Second, there was a denser network with a fine structure.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase, leading to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which affects multiple organs and systems. Current treatments for MPS II include enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) to reduce the accumulation of GAGs. HCT has the potential advantage that donor-derived enzyme-competent cells can provide a continuous secreting source of the enzyme. However, HCT as a treatment for MPS II remains controversial because its effectiveness is unclear, particularly in terms of neurological symptoms. To date, several clinical experiences with HCT in MPS II have been reported. In this paper, we review post-HCT outcomes in the previously published literature and discuss the effects of HCT on each of the clinical signs and symptoms of MPS II.

For cationization, if chitosan, which has the affinity for a human body and reacts easily without inducing any pollution, is used, cationization of Tencel blended fabrics can be expected and further expansion of its use as a new susceptible material can be expected. Therefore, in this study, in order to compare a Tencel/cotton and a Tencel/Cotton/PET as Tencel blended fabrics with a Tencel single fabric, the fabric samples were used and processed with chitosan after NaOH pretreatment and enzyme treatment thereof, and then its adherent efficiency was enhanced by using a crosslinking agent, and then it was got to be finished with a softener. The fibril of Tencel fabric was controlled by enzyme treatment so that the surface of the Tencel blended fabrics got to be smooth. Chitosan adhered to the surface of the Tencel blended fabrics in the form of particles through its processing with chitosan. Chitosan treatment caused little change in the crystal structure thereof and the thermal stability of the Tencel/Cotton/PET fabric was slightly improved. The total hand value(THV) calculated on the basis of the change due to chitosan treatment was increased in all samples.

Wool has excellent properties, such as heat retention, absorbency, and elasticity, but it has a disadvantage in washability because the fabric will felt and shrink greatly. Felting causes the interlocking of the fiber surface scales with one another. Therefore, the studies on wool finishing have been focused on shrink proofing. Precedent researches on wool shrink proofing are mostly on eco-friendly method. using enzyme. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of L-cysteine, EDTA in papain treatment of wool fabrics. The specific contents of study are as follows. Depending on pH, temperature, treatment time, enzyme concentration and L-cysteine, EDTA concentration, weight loss, tensile strength, whiteness, SEM were examined. Each papain treatment conditions depending on L-cysteine, EDTA were optimized from these properties. Papain had very low activation without activators. The optimum conditions of papain treatment were pH 7.5, temperature $75^{\circ}C$, time 30minutes(L-cysteine), 180minutes(EDTA) and papain concentration 5%(o.w.f.). In the use of papain 5%(o.w.f.), the activators optimum concentration was L-cysteine 2%(o.w.f.), EDTA 7%(o.w.f.)

The present study, to evaluate the effect of vitamin E on the oxidative stress in STZ-treated rat and BB rat, was investigated the biochemical enzyme activity in the serum, and malondialdehyde and carbonyl group in the RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction after vitamin E and/ or insulin treatment. Results obtained through the experiments were summarized as follows; 1. Effect of vitamin E and/or insulin treatment in STZ-treated rat 1) Lipid peroxidation level in RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction was significantly decreased in vi. tamin E and/or insulin treatment group, and especially more significantly decreased in vitamin E with insulin treated group. 2) Protein oxidation level in RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction was significantly decreased in vitamin E and/or insulin treatment group. And it was especially more significantly decreased in RBC membrane and liver of vitamin E with insulin treated group. 3) In the enzyme activity in the serum, the activity of AST and ALT was not altered in all experimental group. The increased ALP activity in STZ-treated group was significantly decreased in insulin treated group and vitamin E with insulin treated group. 4) Decreased level of albumin and creatinine after STZ treatment was significantly increased in vitamin E and/or insulin treated group. 5) Level of glucose, cholesterol and triacylglycerol in serum: Glucose level was not significantly different in vitamin E treated group compared to STZ control group. But it was significantly different in the insulin treated group and vitamin E with insulin treated group compared to STZ control group. The cholesterol content in the serum was significantly increased in STZ control group compared to normal control group. And except low dose vitamin E treatment group, it was significantly decreased in vitamin E and/or insulin treated group compared to STZ control group. The triacylglycerol content in the serum was significantly decreased in STZ control group and increased in high dose vitamin E treated group and vitamin E with insulin treated group. But it was not significantly different in low dose vitamin E treated group and insulin treated group compared to STZ control group. 2. Effect of vitamin E and/or insulin treatment in BB rat 1) Lipid peroxidation level in liver was decreased by vitamin E with insulin treatment compared to insulin treatment. But it was not different in microsomal fractions. 2) Protein oxidation level in liver and microsomal fraction was decreased by vitamin E with insulin treatment compared to insulin treatment only in microsomal fractions. These results suggest that the combination treatment of vitamin E and insulin could prevent the oxidative change of lipid and protein of the RBC membrane, liver and microsomal fraction in STZ-treated rats and BB rats.

본 연구는 환경 문제점으로 대두되고 있는 슬러지의 효과적인 저감을 위한 방법으로서 효소를 이용하여 슬러지상 유기물의 가용화율을 높여서 소화조 내에서 미생물의 소화효율을 높이기 위한 것이다. 효소에 의한 슬러지의 가수분해 효율을 높이기 위하여 소량의 오존 (0.02 g $O_3$/g SS, 0.03 g $O_3$/g SS)으로 슬러지를 처리한 후 다양한 효소로 슬러지의 가수분해를 유도함으로써 슬러지의 SCOD를 높여 유기물의 가용화를 향상 시켰다. 여러 가지 효소 중 (Protease, $\alpha$-amylase, glucosidase, lipase)에서 protease가 가장 높은 슬러지의 가수분해 효율을 나타내었다. 오존과 효소로 전처리를 실시한 경우 오존 처리만 한 슬러지에 비해 SCOD 증가량이 높게 나타났으며, 단일 효소보다는 복합 효소를 사용했을 때 유기물의 가용화에 더 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 효소 전처리시, 효소의 최적온도 조건 (50-6$0^{\circ}C$)을 맞추어 주었을 경우가 상온에서 효소 전처리를 실시했던 경우에 비해 SCOD값이 1.5-2배 정도 증가하여, 더 높은 가수분해 효율을 보였다. 반면, 소화반응에 있어서는, 효소 전처리를 실시한 슬러지와 효소 전처리를 실시하지 않고 오존전처리만을 실시한 슬러지의 소화반응을 비교해 본 결과, 효소전처리를 실시한 슬러지의 SCOD 및 TCOD의 감소량이 오존처리만 실시한 슬러지에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 단일효소보다도 복합효소에서 높은 SCOD와 TCOD의 감소량을 나타내었다. 따라서, 슬러지를 효소로 전처리하는 것은 슬러지 저감에 효과적으로 작용할 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 이러한 슬러지의 효소 전처리 방법은 다양한 다른 슬러지 처리방법과 함께 슬러지 처리효율을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 유용하게 이용될 수 있으리라 기대된다. 건전한 환경관리를 위한 유역관리기술 개발의 방향 등을 정리하도록 한다.O와 DABA에 반응하는 자외선 조사에 따른 $^1O_2$의 생성은 taurine의 영향을 받지 않았다.

Tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$ ($TNF{\alpha}$) and the angiotensin system are involved in inflammatory diseases and may contribute to acute kidney injury. We investigated the mechanisms by which $TNF{\alpha}$-converting enzyme (TACE) contributes to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced renal inflammation and the effect of TACE inhibitor treatment on LPS-induced cellular injury in human renal proximal tubule epithelial (HK-2) cells. Mice were treated with LPS (10 mg/kg, i.p.) and HK-2 cells were cultured with or without LPS ($10{\mu}g/ml$) in the presence or absence of a type 1 TACE inhibitor ($1{\mu}M$) or type 2 TACE inhibitor ($10{\mu}M$). LPS treatment induced increased serum creatinine, $TNF{\alpha}$, and urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor, mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), and TACE increased, while angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) expression decreased in LPS-induced acute kidney injury and LPS-treated HK-2 cells. LPS induced reactive oxygen species and the down-regulation of ACE2, and these responses were prevented by TACE inhibitors in HK-2 cells. TACE inhibitors increased cell viability in LPS-treated HK-2 cells and attenuated oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines. Our findings indicate that LPS activates renin angiotensin system components via the activation of TACE. Furthermore, inhibitors of TACE are potential therapeutic agents for kidney injury.
