내열성 alkaline phosphatase의 탐색을 위해 극도호열균중에서 Thermus caldophilus GK24 균주를 선정하였다. 이 균주를 이용하여 basal salts에 sodium glutamate, bactotryptone, glucose 및 yeast extract를 첨가시킨 배지에서 alkaline phosphatase 생산을 검토하였다. 그 결과 sodium glutamate가 alkaline phosphatase 유도에 효과적인 것으로 판명되었다. Alkaline phosphatase 생산을 위한 최적유도용 배지는 basal salts에 0.3% sodium glutamate, 0.2% bactotryptone, 0.5% glucose를 첨가한 것으로 효소활성은 기본배지보다 약 6배, 표준배지 보다는 약 27.5배 증가하였다. T. caldophilus GK24 alkaline phosphatase는 유도효소로 판명되었다. 무기인산 결핍시에 효소가 생산되며, 생육배지에 무기인산을 첨가하면 효소합성에 저해효과가 있었다.

We investigated the seasonal variability of tree alkaline phosphatase activity in seawater and alkaline phosphatase hydrolysable phosphorus (APHP) at 3 stations in Hiroshima Bay using alkaline phosphatase extracted from the dinoflagellates Alexandrium tamarense and Gymnodinium catenatum. The dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) was lower than $1\;{\mu}M$ all samples; the lowest values were in May. The amount of APHP was high at the surface and bottom waters of all stations in May, showing DIP-depleted conditions. In August and November, the amount of APHP was much less than the amount of APHP in May, indicating that the availability of dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) for these species was low and/or uptake during the dinoflagellate blooming might have occurred in the area. The results obtained from short-term variations of AP activity might suggest that the growth of dinoflagellates in this season may be partly supported by the AP produced by other diatoms.

We investigated variations in alkaline phosphatase (APase) activity and alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzable phosphorus (APHP) in northern Gamak Bay from September to December 2009. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) decreased gradually, and the DIN/DIP ratio was higher than the Redfield ratio (16) based on molecular concentrations during most of the observation period. The total APase (T-APase) activity increased with decreasing DIP concentration; i.e., the Relationship between T-APase and DIP showed a high negative correlation (r=-0.80, P<0.001), with APase activity being a good indicator of DIP limiting the Redfield ratio. The T-APase was positively correlated with the concentration of chlorophyll a (r=0.73, P<0.001). This suggests that a major portion of APase activity in northen Gamak Bay seawater is attributed to phytoplankton. The proportion of APHP among dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) was low in September and high in November. Thus, APase-producing phytoplankton may be able to grow by utilizing APHP as a phosphorus source in autumn when DIP is limiting. Thus, APase activity and the use of DOP by phytoplankton may play an important role in the growth of phytoplankton under DIP limiting conditions such as those of northern Gamak Bay.

This study was performed to investigate therapeutic effects of Carthami Semen, Paeoniae Raidx extracts and chitosan on the growth and differentiation of human periodontal ligament cell. We found that co-treatment of methanol extracts of Carthami Semen and chitosan significantly increased the growth of human periodontal ligament cell. However, the sigle treatment groups of the extracts showed only 20-30% of the growth increase. Alkaline phosphase activity, one of differentiation markers, was increased approximately 1.5- fold by co-treatment of methanol extract of Carthami Semen and chitosan and calcified nodule formation was also increased at the similar levels as the alkaline phosphatase. But the single treatment groups showed only 20-30% increases. These results suggest that Carthami Semen and chitosan co-treatment can be used efficiently for periodontium regeneration.

This study was performed to investigate therapeutic effects of Achyranthis Radix extract and chitosan on the growth and differentiation of rat calvarial cells. it was found that treatment of methanol extract of Achyranthis Radix for 2 days caused 2.4-fold increase in the growth of rat calvarial cells. However, chitosan treatment caused only 1.9-fold increase in the cell growth. Treatment of methanol extract of Achyranthis Radix for 14 days caused 2-fold increase in the growth of rat calvarial cells. Alkaline phosphatase activity, one of the markers for bone cell differentiation, was increased approximately by 1.7-fold and 2.9-fold by the treatment of methanol extract of Achyranthis Radix for 2 days and 14 days, respectively. These results suggest that Achyranthis Radix extract could be beneficial for bone regeneration.

This study was undertaken to assess the effects of demethylchlortetracycline on bone growth of mandibular symphyseal region in rats. Demethylchlortetracycline at 30mg/kg body weight, respectively, were daily administered by mouth to the sewen female rats from 10th day of pregnancy to 13th day. Thirty six new-born rats from these experimental animals were used for histological examination at 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 days. All these new-born rats were killed by an overdose of ether. Mandibular bodies were removed and fixed in $10\%$ neutral formalin,. Carney and aceton. Specimens were embedded, sectioned and stained with H-E, Van Gieson, PAS and prepared for alkaline phosphatase. The results were as follows; 1. Until erupting of incisors, hyaline cartilage was located in relatively large symphyseal space, but bone trabeculae of ossifying area at incisal side were arranged irregularly in experimental group. 2. During this period, PAS reaction was moderately positive, but alkaline phosphatase reaction was slightly positive. 3. By erupting or incisors, symphyseal space appeared narrower like control group, but alkaline phosphatase reaction tended to slow down. 4. By erupting of molars, symphyseal space appeared muck narrower, and cartilane plate was reduced and aealed off like control group. Alkaline phosphatase reaction tended to slow down severely.

This study was conducted to investigate changes in blood enzyme parameters and to evaluate the relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), antler growth and body weight during the antler growth of sika deer (Cervus nippon). Serum enzyme activity and IGF-1 concentrations were measured in blood samples collected from the jugular and femoral veins at regular intervals during the antler growth period. Blood samples were taken in the morning from fasted stags (n = 12) which were healthy and showed no clinical signs of disease. Alfalfa was available ad libitum and concentrates were given at 1% of body weight to all stags. The experimental diet was provided at 9 am with water available at all times. There were no significant differences in alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase during antler growth, but alkaline phosphatase concentrations increased with antler growth progression, and the highest alkaline phosphatase concentration was obtained 55 days after antler casting. Serum IGF-1 concentrations measured from blood samples taken from the jugular vein during antler growth, determined that levels of IGF-1 was associated with body weight and antler growth patterns. Serum IGF-1 concentrations were higher at the antler cutting date than other sampling dates. Antler length increased significantly during antler growth (p<0.001), and there was a similar trend to between right and left beams. Body weight increased with antler growth but was not significant. Consequently it appeared that serum alkaline phosphatase concentration was related to antler growth and both antler growth and body weight were associated positively with IGF-1 concentrations during antler growth.

The present study was designed to investigate cellular regulation of phosphate metabolism between catabolically repressed and derepressed states in yeast (Saccharomyces uvarum). The activities of various phospatases and the contents of phosphate compounds were detected according to the culture phase and various phosphate concentrations. As the results, Saccharomyces uvarum derepressed many phosphate metabolizing enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and ATPase more than ten fold simultaneously during catabolic repression (phospgate and sugar starvation). At the same state, the amounts of orthophosphate, nucleotidic labile phosphate and acid soluble polypgosphate were increased, compared to basal levels of normally cultivated cells. $Mg^{++}-stimulated$ type among all phospatases was appeared to have most of the enzyme activity. It could be postulated that $K^+ -stimulated$ alkaline phosphatase was directly or indirectly correlated with the synthesis of acid insoluble polyphosphate $Mg^{++}-stimulated$ phosphatase with the degradation of polyphosphates. In case of cultivation in the medium supplemented with sugar and phosphate (catabolic derepression), phospgatase activities except for alkaline phosphatase were decreased rapidly through the progressive batch culture, After 12 hrs culture, at early exponential phase, the cellular accumulation of acid insoluble polyphosphate increased about 5 fold, compared to those of the starved cells. Under catabolic repression, it could be postulated that intracellular phosphate metabolism was regulated by derepressions of phosphatases. The function of polyphosphate system was shown to compensate the ATP/ADP system as phosphate donor and energy source especially during catabolic repression.

Alkaline phosphatase (APase) was found to be inducible in Anabaena sp. strain CA Growth was less than control in presence of most amino acids except glycine and serine, but most amino acids enhanced APase activity. Highest APase activity was recorded in tyrosine supplemented culture followed by hydroxyproline, cystein, valine and glutamic acid. Threonine supplemented material showed lowest APase level (1.8 nmol/mg protein/min). Lactose, glucose, sodium pyruvate and succinate stimulated growth but not APase activity. APase activity was high in the presence of sucrose, mellibiose, mannitol, arabinose, maltose and sorbose, even though the growth in these supplements was less than in control. Organic phosphate sources supported good growth of the organism. Best growth occurred in presence of inorganic phosphate, adenosine diphosphate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate or ribulose 1,5-diphosphate, followed by other phosphorus sources tested. APase activity in presence of any of the organic phosphate sources was 3 to 5 fold low as compared to phosphate limited culture. Also, there was no APase activity in cultures grown on inorganic phosphate. These data indicate that most amino acids and a few carbohydrates (sucrose, mellibiose, arabinose and sorbose) are suitable for APase production. Lactose, glucose, pyruvate or succinate may be used as a carbon source during photoheterotrophic growth of the cyanobacterium. Glycine and serine are preferred nitrogen sources for its growth. Phosphate repressible APase activity has been found in Anabaena sp. strain CA.

In order to study the growth and maturation of ovarian follicle, the localization and activity of alkaline phosphatase(ALPase) and adenosine triphosphatase(ATPase) of the granulosa cells and theca layer were examined according to the follicle size, the follicle state and the ovarian cyclic phase in pig. Theca interna of the small follicles was more heavyly localized with reaction product by the activites of ALPase and ATPase than that of the large follicles. It is assumed that, as the follicles proceed to growth and maturation, antrum formation is the result of the follicular fluid accumulation by means of active transport by the activities of ALPase and ATPase in theca interna. The activities of ALPase and ATPase in atretic follicles were higher than those of normal follicles. These results imply that the mechanisms of follicle maturation and atresia are different according to the phase of ovarian cycle.
