최근 생물정보 기술이 암 진단의 새로운 방법으로 관심을 모으고 있다. 다양한 기계학습 기법이 적용되어 우수한 결과를 얻고 있지만 의학 분야에서는 정확률이 높은 분류기뿐만 아니라 획득된 분류규칙을 사람이 분석하고 이해할 수 있어야 한다. 생물정보 기술에서 많이 이용되는 유전자 발현 데이터는 데이타 내에 수천 내지 수만의 변수가 존재하며, 직접 이들 사이의 복잡한 관계를 표현하고 이해하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위해 유전자 발현 데이타에서 분류에 유용한 특징들을 추출하고 산술 연산자 기반 유전자 프로그래밍으로 암 분류규칙을 생성하는 방법을 제안한다. 림프종 유전자 발현 데이타에 대하여 실험하여 96.6%의 인식률을 얻었으며, 획득된 분류 규칙을 분석하여 다양한 지식을 발견할 수 있었다.

Digoxigenin (DIG) was used to prepare nucleic acid probe for the detection of RNA of potato leafroll virus (PLRV) in the potato leaf extracts. The 0.6 kb coat protein (CP) gene cDNA of PLRV in plasmid pSPT 18 vector was labeled with digoxigenin by in vitro run-off transcription and then used for cRNA probe. In the several buffers tested for increase the total RNA extraction efficiency AMES buffer was the most suitable for this detection method. The RNA extracts from potato leaves shown symptoms of PLRV were dot blotted onto nylon membrane and hybridized with labeled RNA probes. After hybridization, labeled RNA bound to PLRV RNA on membrane was detected with anti-digoxigenin alkaline phosphatase. 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate/nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) salt and CSPD were used as substrate for colorimetric and film exposure detection, respectively. These detection methods were very sensitive allowing for detection of 1/32 diluted total RNA extract from 100 mg leaf tissue.

Researches on chromosome are very significant in cytogenetics since a gene of the chromosome controls revelation of the inheritance plasma The human chromosome analysis is widely used to diagnose genetic disease and various congenital anomalies. Many researches on automated chromosome karyotype analysis has been carried out, some of which produced commercial systems. However, there still remains much room for improving the accuracy of chromosome classification. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for reconstruction of the chromosDme image to improve the chromosome classification accuracy. Morphological feature parameters are extracted from the reconstructed chromosome images. The reconstruction method from chromosome image is the 32 direction line algorithm. We extract three morphological feature parameters, centromeric index(C.I.), relative length ratio(R.L.), and relative area ratio(R.A.), by preprocessing ten human chromosDme images. The experimental results show that proposed algorithm is better than that of other researchers'comparing by feature parameter errors.

Microarray 로 표현되는 유전자 발현 데이터는 일반적으로 샘플(sample) 수에 비해 많은 수의 유전자를 포함한다. 피처 추출은 이러한 데이터에 기계학습 방법론을 효과적으로 적용하기 위한 방법 중 하나로, 학습성능을 향상시키고 계산 시간을 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 중요한 피처들을 발견할 수 있다는 점에서 큰 의미를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 베이지안 신경망(Bayesian Neural Network)에 기반 한 자동유효성탐지(Automatic Relevance Detection, ARD) 기법을 사용하여 유전자 발현 데이터에서 학습 오류를 줄이는 동시에 학습에 필요한 최소한의 유전자 집합을 추출할 수 있는 방법을 제시했다. CAMDA 2003에서 제시된 폐종양 환자의 유전자 발현 데이터에 대해 실험한 결과, 12600 개의 유전자 중에서 가장 중요하다고 여겨지는 187 개의 유전자를 발견했으며, 높은 학습성능을 달성했다.

Background: Gastric cancer as one of the most important diseases affecting health in all worldwide. Current studies have confirmed associations of cytokine gene polymorphisms with the risk of gastric cancer development. The current research aimed to assess the association of IL-1B+3954 genotypes with the risk of gastric cancer in the Iranian population. Materials and Methods: This case-control study covered 49 gastric cancer patients compared to 53 cancer free individuals as a control group. Genomic-DNA extraction was carried out from bioptic samples of patients and peripheral blood of healthy volunteers. Polymorphism of IL-1B +3954 genotypes were analysed with a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Results: The frequencies of IL-1B +3954 A1A1, A1A2 and A2A2 genotypes in healthy individuals were 26.4, 66 and 7.6 %, respectively. However, in gastric cancer patients, A1A1, A1A2 and A2A2 with 4.1, 51 and 44.9% were observed (p<0.05). Conclusions: The findings of our results show a positive association between the IL-1B+3954 genotype distribution and the risk of gastric cancer disease in the Iranian population.

The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify the bacteria in osteomyelitis lesion of 3 patients. Two lesions were due to the post-infection after extraction. The other was resulted from mal-fixation of both sides of mandibular angles. Pus samples were collected by needle aspiration from the lesion and examined by culture method. Bacterial culture was performed in three culture systems (anaerobic, $CO_2$, and aerobic incubator). Identification of the bacteria was performed by 16S rRNA gene cloning and nucleotide sequencing method. Our results showed that Streptococci species was predominantly isolated in both lesions of extraction socket. Only one species (Proteus vulagris) was detected in lesion of mandibular angle. This study was not sufficient to identify the causative bacteria in those osteomyelitis. However, our data may be offered the clue to solve the problem.

Objectives : Proinflammatory process has been implicated as an underlying mechanism of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Previous studies have suggested a possible role of lymphotoxin alpha (LTA) gene in the development of schizophrenia and have prompted further investigation in bipolar patients. Association of the LTA +252A/G polymorphism with susceptibility to bipolar I disorder itself as well as with vulnerability among a subset of psychotic bipolar patients were tested. Methods : DNA extraction was done by a standard method and genotyping was carried out by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method in 114 Korean patients with bipolar I disorder and 202 healthy controls. SPSS v18.0 was used for statistical analysis. Comparisons of the genotype and allele distributions in LTA +252A/G polymorphism were made using a chi-square test. The genotype and allele associations were also evaluated using odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Statistical significance was accepted when p was < 0.05. Results : No significant association was found between the LTA +252A/G polymorphism and bipolar disorder. However, LTA +252G allele was present with significantly higher frequency among bipolar patients with psychotic features compared to those without (${\chi}^2$ = 4.69, p = 0.034, OR = 2.495, 95% CI = 1.069-5.827). Conclusion : The results suggest that the allele LTA +252G of the polymorphism may be associated with the psychotic subset of bipolar disorder but not with bipolar I disorder itself. Adequately powered subsequent studies should be conducted.

Background: Angelica gigas, A. sinensis, and A. acutiloba are commercially important in the herbal medicine market, and among them, A. gigas has the highest economic value and price. However, their similar morphological traits are often used for fraud. Despite their importance in herbal medicine, recognition of the differences between Angelica species is currently inadequate. Methods and Results: A multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was developed for direct detection and identification of A. gigas, A. sinensis, and A. acutiloba. The gene for the distinction of species was targeted at ITS in the nucleus and trnC-petN gene in chloroplasts. The optimized multiplex PCR in the present study utilized each Angelica species-specific primer pairs. Each primer pair yielded products of 229 base pairs (bp) for A. gigas, 53 bp for A. sinensis, 170 bp for A. acutiloba. Additionally non-specific PCR products were not detected in similar species by species-specific primers. Conclusions: In the present study, a multiplex-PCR assay, successfully assessed the authenticity of Angelica species (A. gigas, A. sinensis, and A. acutiloba). and whole genome amplification (WGA) was performed after DNA extraction to identify, the species in the product. The detection method of raw materials developed in the present study could be applied to herbal medicine and health functional food management.

Generally, the direct sequencing through PCR is faster, easier, cheaper, and more practical than clone sequencing. Frequently, standard PCR amplification is usually interpreted by mispriming internal or external regions of the target template. Normally, DNA fragments were eluted from the gel using Gel extraction kit and subjected to direct sequencing or cloning sequencing. Cloning sequencing has often troublesome and needs more time to analyze for many samples. Since touchdown (TD) PCR can generate sufficient and highly specific amplification, it reduces unwanted amplicon generation. Accordingly, TD PCR is a good method for direct sequencing due to amplifying wanted fragment. In plants the 5S-rRNA gene is separated by simple spacers. The 5S-rRNA gene sequence is very well-conserved between plant species while the spacer is species-specific. Therefore, the sequence has been used for phylogenetic studies and species identification. But frequent occurrences of spurious bands caused by complex genomes are encountered in the product spectrum of standard PCR amplification. In conclusion, the TD PCR method can be applied easily to amplify main 5S-rRNA and direct sequencing of panax ginseng cultivars.
