Diazepam, a benzodiazepine (BDZ) agonist, produces sedation and flumazenil, a BDZ antagonist, blocks these actions. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of BDZs on cortical electroencephalogram (EEG) in rats. The recording electrodes were implanted over the frontal and parietal cortices bilaterally, and the reference and ground electrodes over cerebellum under ketamine anesthesia. To assess the effects of diazepam and flumazenil, rats were injected with diazepam (1 mgHg, i.p.) and/or flumazenil ( 1 mg/kg, i.p.), and the EEG was recorded before and after drugs. Normal awake had theta peak in the spectrum and low amplitude waves, while normal sleep showed large amplitude of slow waves. The powers of delta, theta and alpha bands were increased during sleep compared with during awake. Diazepam reduced the mobility of the rat and induced sleep with intermittent fast spindles and large amplitude of slow activity, and it produced broad peak over betaL band and increased the power of gamma band, which were different from EEG patterns in normal sleep. Saline injection awakened rats and abolished fast spindles for a short period about 2-5 min from EEG pattern during diazepam-induced sleep. Flumazenil blocked both diazepam-induced sleep and decreased the slow activities of delta, theta, alpha and betaL, but not of gamma activity for about 10 min or more. This study may indicate that decrease in power of betaL and betaH bands can be used as the measure of central action of benzodiazepines, and that the EEG parameters of benzodiazepines have to be measured without control over the behavioral state by experimenter.

We observed that the growth and physiological change in Haliotis discus discus by low-dose irradiation with gamma ray.Irradiation with gamma ray was undertaken by using the low-level irradiation facility ($^{60}CO$) in cooperation with the Institute of Nuclear Science and Technology at Jeju National University. The parent abalones were attached one by one and then fixed by using the rubber band to the front side of the fabricated case for irradiation with gamma ray. The experimental plots of irradiation with gamma ray were set as 10, 15, 20 and 25 Gy and the 25 female abalones and 10 male abalones were utilized for each experimental plot. The sperms and eggs were fertilized by setting an interval for each dose to prevent mixing with other experimental plots when fertilizing the sperms and eggs for each dose of irradiation with gamma ray. As for the fertility, it was confirmed to be 85% the control and 10 Gy groups, whereas it was found to be 80%, 65% and 50% in the 15 Gy, 20 Gy and 25 Gy groups, respectively. As a conclusion, the hatching rate and attachment rate were higher at 10 and 15 Gy than the other experimental plots, and the growth rate was higher at 20 Gy than the other experimental plots. Also the changes in lysozyme activity in accordance with the stress of water temperature were found to have a significant increase in the other experimental plots as compared with the control plot at the end of 0 h. The changes in lysozyme activity have remained constant in all the experimental plots at the end of 12 h. These results allowed us to confirm that lysozyme was undertaking the biodefense action by reacting sensitively to the stress of water temperature in the control experimental plot. As for the other experimental plots, they are believed to avoid the biodefense mechanism due to the high degree of anti-parasite mechanism and anti-viral mechanism. Thus, it is believed that it would be imperative to conduct development and research on breeds that were potent for environmental tolerance by applying the method of irradiation with gamma ray to other marine animals and plants.

Purpose: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a device that activates the sensorimotor cortex through electrodes attached to the surface of the skin. However, it is difficult to expect positive changes if the recipient is not attentive to the motion. To complement the perceived cognitive limitations of FES, we attempted to investigate the changes of sensorimotor cortex activity by simultaneously providing action observation with FES. Methods: Electroencephalogram was measured in 28 healthy volunteers. Relative band power over the sensorimotor cortex was analyzed and compared in three conditions: during rest, during FES alone, during action observation with FES. Results: The results showed significant differences in each relative band power. Relative alpha power and relative beta power were the lowest by application of FES combined with action observation, while the relative gamma power was the highest. Conclusion: These results suggest that combining FES with observation could be more effective than FES alone in neurorehabilitation.

Extracellular cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) from Paenibacillus sp. JK-12 was purified through sev-eral purification steps consisting of ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatographies on DEAE-sephadex A-50 and Mono QIM HR5/5. The purified CGTase exhibited a single band on SDS-PAGE and was estimated to be approximately 82 kDa. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 7.2 as determined by isoelectric focusing. The CGTase from Paenibacillus sp. JK-12 had a transglucosylation activity at the C-2 position of L-ascorbic acid. The optimum pH and temperature for the CGTase activity were 8.0 and 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme activity was stable from pH 6.0 to 9.() and at temperatures up to 55$^{\circ}C$ at pB 8.0, having 80% residual activity. The activity of the CGTase was strongly resistant to metals such as A $g^{+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$ but slightly inhibited by H $g^{+}$, N $i^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$. The enzymeproduced $\alpha$ -cyclodextrin ($\alpha$-CD) and $\beta$-CD as the main products from starch, but not ${\gamma}$-CD.X>-CD.

생쥐의 백혈병세포 L1210과 항암제에 대하여 내성이 유도된 L1210AdR, L1210VcR과 L1210Cis에서 glutathione의 농도와 glutathione의 합성 조절에 관여하는 ${\gamma}$-glutamylcysteine synthetase(GCS)와 ${\gamma}$-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), 세포 이물질을 축합하는데 촉매하는 glutathione S-transferase(GST)의 효소 활성도와 유전자의 발현 여부를 관찰하였다. 세포내 glutathione농도(${\mu}M/mg$ protein)는 L1210이 $0.41{\pm}0.003$, L1210AdR가 $0.73{\pm}0.006$, L1210VcR은 $1.16{\pm}0.060$, L1210Cis가 $2.19{\pm}0.282$으로 모세포에 비하여 내성세포에서 통계적으로 유의한 증가를 관찰하였다. Buthionine sulfoxamine(BSO)를 1 ${\mu}M$농도로 첨가하여 12시간 배양한 세포들에서의 glutathione농도는 L1210이 88%, L1210AdR가 85%, L1210VcR이 89%, 그리고 L1210Cis는 79%의 감소를 보였다. GCS의 활성도(nM/mg protein/min)는 L1210이 104인데 비하여 L1210AdR가 128, L1210VcR는 227, 및 L1210Cis는 212로 증가하였다. GGT의 활성도(nM/mg protein/min)는 L1210이 $2.15{\pm}0.531$이었고, L1210AdR은 $2.80{\pm}0.498$, L1210VcR은 $2.42{\pm}0.389$, 그리고 L1210Cis는 $2.98{\pm}0.623$으로 내성인 세포들에서 증가하였으며 L1210AdR과 L1210Cis에서 유의하였다. GST활성도(nM/mg protein/min)는 L1210이 $16.70{\pm}4.798$이었고, L1210AdR은 $14.51{\pm}3.402$, L1210VcR은 $19.52{\pm}4.255$, L1210Cis $17.77{\pm}4.495$로 L1210VcR과 L1210Cis가 약간의 증가를 보였으며, L1210AdR은 오히려 감소를 보였다. DNA의 slot blot에서 GCS, GGT, GST 유전자의 모세포와 내성세포간에 별다른 차이를 보이지 않았다. Northern hybridization에서 GCS는 약 4.5kb 크기의 band, GST-${\pi}$는 약 1.05kb 크기의 band를 보였으며 내성세포 모두에서 발현 증가가 관찰되었다. GGT의 경우 크기가 다른 6개의 band가 보였으며 특히 11.5 kb크기의 band에서 L1210AdR과 L1 210VcR의 발현이 증가하였으며, L1210VcR에서는 L1210과 다른 내성세포에서 보이는 1.95kb크기의 band가 보이지 않고 2.2kb 크기의 다른 band가 관찰되었다. 이상에서 L1210AdR과 L1210VcR의 내성에는 mdr1 유전자가 관여하고, L1210Cis의 내성에는 특히 glutathione이 중요하다. GCS, GGT 및 GST등의 활성도 및 유전자의 발현도 내성세포들에서 증가하였으며 이중 GCS는 내성세포내의 glutathione 합성에 가장 중요한 조절인자라 할 수 있다.

Objective: Psychomotor imagery has been widely used to improve motor performance and motor learning. Recent research suggests that during visualization, changes occur in neurophysiological networks that make physical practice more effective in configuring functional networks for skillful behaviors. The aim of our pilot study was to determine if there was change and to what extent there was differentiation in modulation in electroencephalography (EEG) frequencies between visualizing a state of rest and a state of exercise performance and to identify the preponderant frequency. Design: Quasi-experimental design uncontrolled before and after study. Methods: EEG brain wave activity was recorded from 0-40 Hz from nine cerebral cortical scalp regions F3, Fz, F4, C3, Cz, C4, P3, POz, and P4 with a wireless telemetric EEG system. The subjects, while sitting on a chair with eyes closed, were asked to visualize themselves in a state of routine rest/relaxation and after a period of time in a state of their routine exercise performance. Results: The gamma frequency, 31-40 Hz, (${\gamma}$) was the predominant wave band in differentiation between visualizing a state of rest versus visualizing a state of exercise performance. Conclusions: We suggest these preliminarily findings show the EEG electrocortical activity for athletes is differentially modulated during visualization of exercise performance in comparison to rest with a predominant ${\gamma}$ wave band frequency observed during the state of exercise. Further controlled experimental studies will be performed to elaborate these observations and delineate the significance to optimization of psychomotor exercise performance.

강낭콩을 가열한 후 B. subtilis ATCC 51189로 발효시켜 새로운 활성 단백질의 생성여부를 확인하였다. 생강낭콩의 수용성 단백질은 열처리에 의하여 감소하였으며, 발효과정에서 단백질의 양은 변화하지 않았으나, 새로운 아미노산이 합성되었다. 생강낭콩의 수용성 단백질(raw protein, RP)은 분자량 118 kDa의 PHA(phytohemagglutinin)의 전형적인 모습을 보였으나, 열처리한 단백질(heated protein, HP)의 경우, RP의 band는 사라지고, 저분자 peptide로 변화되었으며, 발효과정에 의하여 분자량 18.0 kDa의 새로운 단백질(fermented protein, FP)이 생성된 것을 확인하였다. 또한, RP는 128 HU, HP는 4HU, FP는 32HU의 적혈구응집효과를 보였으며, 위암세포(SNU-1)에 대하여 RP 및 FP는 비교적 높은 농도($IC_{50}$/ $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)에서 항암활성을 보였다. 그리고, RP 및 FP의 경우 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL에서 림프구 증식효과를 보였고, IFN-${\gamma}$, IL-12의 분비를 촉진하였다. 그러나 HP는 항암효과, 림프구 증식효과, cytokine의 분비촉진효과를 보이지 않았다. 따라서, 강낭콩 lectin은 가열에 의하여 활성물질이 파괴되나, B. subtilis에 의한 발효과정에서 새로운 cytokine 분비촉진물질이 생성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
