An experiment was conducted to investigate correlations of litter size and average serum progesterone concentrations during pregnancy with mammary gland growth and development at parturition. Twenty ewes (5, 9, 4, and 2 ewes carrying 0, 1, 2, and 3 lambs, respectively) were used to measure weekly serum progesterone concentration during pregnancy. At parturition, the experimental ewes were slaughtered for determination of mammary gland growth and development at parturition (mammary dry fat-free tissue [DFFT], DNA, RNA, collagen, protein, and glycogen). Correlation of mammary DFFT with litter size and averages serum progesterone concentrations were 0.75 and 0.72, respectively. Litter size or maternal serum progesterone concentrations did not correlate with the mammary DNA concentration. However, litter size or maternal serum progesterone concentrations positively correlated (p < 0.01) with the mammary RNA and protein concentrations, but negatively correlated with the mammary collagen (p < 0.01) and. glycogen (p < 0.05) concentrations. Litter size or maternal serum progesterone positively correlated (p < 0.01) with the total mammary DNA, RNA, collagen, protein and glycogen contents. These results implied that the increased concentrations of progesterone with the increased litter size during pregnancy improved mammary gland growth and development at parturition.

In 2007, 43.5% mortality of the cultured oyster population occurred in Gamak Bay. Mortality rapidly increase in September and peak in October. To prevent future mass-mortality event, we investigated spawning and variation of oyster body composition. The main spawning period of culture oyster occurred from August to September. Condition index and body composition (protein and glycogen) appeared to be influenced by the spawning activity. Condition index and glycogen content in September were lowest (13.5% and 5.6 mg/g, respectively). However, protein, lipid and glycogen contents did not rapidly recover after the spawning activity. The data indicates that mass-mortality of cultured oysters in Gamak Bay may be due to deteriorated health, spawning activity, stress of the high water temperature and decreasing food resources.

엽산을 뽕잎에 각 농도별(100, 200 및 300$\mu$g/ml)로 처리하여 4령 또는 5령 누에에 첨식시킨 결과 전견중, 견층중, 산란성 및 부화율과 같은 실용형질이 향상되었으며 대조구에 비해 경과일수도 통계적인 유의성 있게 단축되었다. 지방체의 glycogen과 단백질 함량의 증가는 유의성이 없었으나 체액중 trehalose는 모든 처리구에서 증가되었으며, 지방체와 체액중의 단백질 함량은 100$\mu$g/ml구에서 유의적으로 높았다. 그러나 300$\mu$g/ml구에서는 체액중 단백질 함량은 오히려 감소하였다.

The present study is aimed at finding the effect of B-20 drops, a homoeopathic formulation, in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. B-20 drops comprises of the constituents derived from plants and other natural sources, and are generally prescribed by the homoeopathic physician, in cases of hyperglycemia and diabetes. The elevated levels of fasting blood glucose and pancreatic lipid peroxides observed in rats treated with STZ were significantly reduced by the treatment of B-20 drops. The reduced liver glycogen contents were also brought back to near normal level by B-20 drops treatment in STZ diabetic rats. STZ induced histopathological changes in pancreas and liver was also partially reversed by B-20 drops. The findings indicate that B-20 drops help in improving the glycogen stores in the liver and prevents STZ induced damage through free radicals by decreasing the pancreatic lipid peroxides levels.

The histological changes of gill, liver, spleen and muscle, and respiration and blood variables and liver glycogen content were examined in black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegeli. Fish were exposed to a high level of total ammonia nitrogen (10.4 mg/l) and recovered from exposure $(0.4{\pm}0.2mg/l)$ in a closed recirculating seawater system. In the process of exposure, mortality was $9\%$, and hyperplasia, necrosis or inflammation appeared in all tissues except for muscle. Oxygen consumption was decreased by $49\%$, and red blood cell (RBC) number, hematocrit and hemoglobin concentration were significantly decreased, while plasma glucose contents, activities of glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (GPT) increased. Liver glycogen content significantly increased from $6.6\%\;to\;10.4\%$. A large amount of hemosiderin was observed in the splenic tissue. During the recovery period, RBC number, hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, GOT and GPT activities were returned to the normal status. Histological status of liver tissue was returned to the normal, but liver glycogen content was not recovered. During the recovery period, spleen melanin-macrophages temporarily increased, but subsequently decreased to the normal status.

동죽은 자숙하여 천일건조시료, 열풍건조시료로 만들어서 일반성분과 정미성분으로 알려져 있는 핵산관련물질, 유리아미노산, glycogen의 함량의 변화를 비교하였다. 일반성분은 가공전후에서 큰 차이가 없었으나 회분함량은 가공후 21.5%가 증가하였다. 핵산관련 물질은 생시료에는 ATP, ADP, IMP 및 Hypoxanthine이 많았으나 건조시료에서는 ATP는 상당량(78%)줄었고 다른 핵산관련물질도 모두 줄어들었다. 유리아미노산은 glycine, alanine 및 arginine이 전체 유리아미노산의 85%를 차지하고 있었으며 건조후 유리아미노산은 전체적으로 생시료의 60%정도를 함유하고 있었다. 동죽자건품의 중요한 정미성분은 glycine, alanine, arginine과 같은 유리아미노산 및 ATP 분해생성물이라고 추정할 수 있다.

Objective: We have tested our hypothesis that inclusion of purified glycerol as a replacer of portions of dried distillers grain with solubles (DDGS) would affect growth performance, rumen fermentation and blood parameters, carcass and sensory traits, reducing sugar and glycogen contents, and volatile compound profiles in longissimus thoracis (LT) in Korean cattle steers. Methods: A total of 20 Korean cattle steers (27.0±0.2 months old; 647±10.5 kg body weight [BW]) were assigned to a conventional control group or a glycerol group (3.17% purified glycerol addition as a replacement for DDGS and molasses). The steers were individually allowed to receive the experimental concentrate at the daily amount of 1.5% of their individual BW and a total 1.0 of kg/d of rice straw twice daily. The feeding trial was conducted for a period of 20 weeks. Results: Glycerol supplementation (GS) increased (p = 0.001) concentrate intake. However, GS did not affect (p>0.05) average daily gain, feed efficiency, and ruminal volatile fatty acid concentrations. GS tended to increase (p≤0.10) serum glucose concentrations at the 16th and 20th weeks. GS decreased (p = 0.001) LT pH. GS did not affect (p>0.05) carcass traits and the chemical or physicochemical compositions, reducing sugar or glycogen contents, sensory traits, and most of volatile compounds in the LT. Conclusion: The inclusion of purified glycerol as a replacement for DDGS in the finishing diet did not affect growth performance, rumen fermentation parameters, and carcass quality in Korean cattle. The purified glycerol could be used as a substitute for other energy sources such as DDGS in beef cattle, depending on the price.

식이성 단백질 함량이 toluene에 의한 간 손상에 어떠한 영 향을 미치는지를 검토할 목적으로 흰쥐를 저 단백식이 (casein 7%, LP) 및 고단백식이 (casein 20%, SP)로 성장시킨 후 체중 100g당 toluene과 olive oil의 동량흔액 0.2ml를 1일 1회 4번 투여한 다음 24시간 후 처치하였다. 체중 100g당 간무게는 SP군이 대조군에 비하여 약 28%, LP군은 약 17%의 유의한 증가를 보였으며 혈청 xanthine oxidase(XO)활성은 SP군에서는 약 35%의 유의한 증가를 나타내었으나 LP군에서도 증가되었으나 유의성은 없었다. 한편 toluene투여로 인한 간 glycogen, glutathione(GSH) 함량 감소율에 있어서는 SP군이 LP군 보다 높게 나타났으며 간세포의 대조군에 대한 cytosol, mitochondria 단백함량 감소율 역시 SP군이 LP군 보다 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 그리고 병리조직검사 소견에서는 SP군에서 swelling 정도가 LP군에 비하여 심화되어 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

Streptozotocin(STZ)을 45mg/kg.b.w의 용량으로 흰쥐의 미정맥에 투여 한 후 유발된 당뇨 흰쥐에게 1일 1회 7일간 1,000mg/kg의 용량으로 도라지 뿌리 에탄올 추출물을 투여 후 glucose 함량과 당대사에 관여하는 효소인 glucose-6-phosphatase(G-6-Pase) glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase(G-6-PDH), glucokinase(GK)활성과 glycogen 함량, triglyceride(TG), total cholesterol등의 지질대사에 관여하는 물질들을 측정하였다. 그 결과 도라지 뿌리 에탄올 추출물 투여군이 glucose, TG, total cholesterol등의 함량과 G-6-Pase 활성의 유의적인 감소(p<0.05)를 나타내었으며 glycogen 함량과 HDL-cholesterol, G-6-PDH, GK의 활성이 유의적인 증가(p<0.05)를 나타내었다. 이와 같이 도라지 뿌리 에탄올 추출물이 항당뇨 개선효과를 갖는 유효성분을 함유하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
