This study was initially explored to procure biomaterials capable of inhibiting cancer cell growth from nine Persicaria species (Polygonaceae). The extract of P. nepalensis that was selected from the initial screenings was further fractionated to identify bioactive compounds. The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction was shown to be the most active in the inhibition of cell growth against six cancer cell lines (IC₅₀ value of 3.77-12.87 ㎍/ml). Phytochemical study led to the isolation of two galactolipids of 1,2-di-O-linolenoyl-3-O-β-D-galactospyranosyl-sn-glycerol (1) and 1-O-linolenoyl-3-O-β-D-galactospyranosyl-sn-glycerol (2) from the hexane fraction and three phenylpropanoyl sucroses of lapathoside A (3), vanicoside B (4) and lapathoside C (5) from the EtOAc fraction. These isolated compounds have not been reported from this plant. Compounds 3 and 4 exhibited the effective growth inhibition against a panel of cancer cell lines (IC₅₀ value of 6.90-18.09 μM). In addition, the anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated to determine lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) formation in RAW264.7 mouse macrophage cells. The EtOAc fraction (IC₅₀; 34.14 ㎍/ml) and its constituents, 3 (8.55 μM) and 4 (7.83 μM) were shown to be effective in the inhibition of LPS-induced NO production. Therefore, compounds 3 and 4 were considered to be active constituents for anti-inflammatory and antitumor activity from P. nepalensis.

Due to wide abuse of antibiotics both in human and livestock use, the advent and spread of multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogens becomes a serious health problem all over the world. Since the development of new antibiotics is at a standstill in pharmaceutical industry, the choice of therapeutic antibiotics is getting narrower. In this study, in an effort to search new antibiotics, the antimicrobial activity of Paenibacillus DY1 isolated from Korean soil was characterized on its growth inhibition spectrum against various health threatening MDR strains, with its stability and chemical structure. Extracellular culture filtrate of Paenibacillus DY1 effectively inhibits the growth of all the tested MDR enteropathogenic Eshcherichia coli, enterohemolytic E. coli, and enterotoxigenic E. coli strains, at a similar level to that on the nonresistant control E. coli strains. It showed significant growth inhibition effect against the causative agents of class one legal communicable disease, MDR Salmonella typhi, MDR Salmonella paratyphi A, food poisoning bacteria, MDR Salmonella typhimurium, and other MDR Salmonella spp. The growth of all of 10 different MDR Shigella spp. strains and 6 different Vibrio spp. strains tested was also inhibited. The antimicrobial activity of Paenibacillus DY1 was well preserved after heat treatment, and was also stable in both alkaline and acidic environment. The antimicrobial activity was partially purified with Diaion HP20 column and TLC. By NMR study, the putative structure of the activity was postulated as an alkane having hydroxyl groups.

Background: Ginseng black spot disease resulting from Alternaria panax Whuetz is a common soil-borne disease, with an annual incidence rate higher than 20-30%. In this study, the bacterial strains with good antagonistic effect against A. panax are screened. Methods: A total of 285 bacterial strains isolated from ginseng rhizosphere soils were screened using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and the Oxford cup plate assay. We analyzed the antifungal spectrum of SZ-22 by confronting incubation. To evaluate the efficacy of biocontrol against ginseng black spot and for growth promotion by SZ-22, we performed pot experiments in a plastic greenhouse. Taxonomic position of SZ-22 was identified using morphology, physiological, and biochemical characteristics, 16S ribosomal DNA, and gyrB sequences. Results: SZ-22 (which was identified as Brevundimonas terrae) showed the strongest inhibition rate against A. panax, which showed 83.70% inhibition, and it also provided broad-spectrum antifungal effects. The inhibition efficacies of the SZ-22 bacterial suspension against ginseng black spot reached 82.47% inhibition, which is significantly higher than that of the 25% suspension concentrate azoxystrobin fungicide treatment (p < 0.05). Moreover, the SZ-22 bacterial suspension also caused ginseng plant growth promotion as well as root enhancement. Conclusion: Although the results of the outdoor pot-culture method were influenced by the pathogen inoculum density, the cropping history of the field site, and the weather conditions, B. terrae SZ-22 controlled ginseng black spot and promoted ginseng growth successfully. This study provides resource for the biocontrol of ginseng black spot.

발효액중에 생성된 에탄올의 농도가 균의 성장 및 에탄올 앵성속도에 미치는 영향을 연속발효법으로 연구하였다. 그 결과 생성된 에탄올의 농도 $20g^{-1}$에부터 균의 비성장속도가 급속히 저하되나 에탄올의 생성속도는 에탄올 농도가 $60g^{-1}$ 이상이 되어야 저해되는 것을 알았다. 이러한 현상은 Zymomas mobilis 균에서 특이하게 보고되었던 균성장(Anabolism)과 당대사(catabolism)사이에의 연결에 분리가 일어나는 소위 uncoupling현상이 에탄올 농도에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 판단되었다.

The effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha $(TNF-{\alpha})$ on growth and tubular formation of bovine aortic endothelial cells were examined using an in vitro angiogenesis model system. The growth of endothelial cells was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner when the cells were cultured with $TNF-{\alpha}$ for 3 days, but $TNF-{\alpha}$, at the concentration of 1 nM or higher, produced a growth inhibition of endothelial cells when the cells were cultured for 8 days. The endothelial cells incubated with $TNF-{\alpha}$ for 48-h exhibited a typical morphologic change. Then, they showed a fibroblastoid organization of overlapping, elongated, and spindle-shaped cells. $TNF-{\alpha}$, at the concentration of O. 1 nM or higher, inhibited the tubular formation of vascular endothelial cells in an in vitro anglogenesis model using a 3-dimensional culture system.

The physiological characteristics of cultures of very high cell mass (e.g. 10g cell mass/L), termed“ultrahigh cell density cultures”is reviewed. A close relationship was found between the length of the optical path (OP) in flat-plate reactors and the optimal cell density of the culture as well as its areal (g m$\^$-2/ day$\^$-1/) productivity. Cell-growth inhibition (GI) unfolds as culture density surpasses a certain threshold. If it is constantly relieved, a 1.0cm OP reactor could produce ca. 50% more than reactors with longer OP, e.g. 5 or 10cm. This unique effect, discovered by Hu et al. [3], is explained in terms of the relationships between the frequency of the light-dark cycle (L-D cycle), cells undergo in their travel between the light and dark volumes in the reactor, and the turnover time of the photosynthetic center (PC). In long OP reactors (5cm and above) the L-D cycle time may be orders of magnitude longer than the PC turnover time, resulting in a light regime in which the cells are exposed along the L-D cycle, to long, wasteful dark periods. In contrast, in reactors with an OP of ca. 1.0 cm, the L-D cycle frequency approaches the PC turnover time resulting in a significant reduction of the wasteful dark exposure time, thereby inducing a surge in photosynthetic efficiency. Presently, the major difficulty in mass cultivation of ultrahigh-density culture (UHDC) concerns cell growth inhibition in the culture, the exact nature of which is awaiting detailed investigation.
