NC/Nga mice with contact dermatitis induced using DNCB were applied with GJHB(祛風燥濕解毒方), and its influence on the expressions of IgE, immune related cytokines, and immunoglobulins were tested. The results were obtained as follows ; GJHB significantly redued the production of IgE compared to the control. GJHB significantly reduced the amount of IL-4 within the suspension of spleen cells, but significantly induced the production of $IFN-{\gamma}$, compared to the control. GJHB significantly reduced the production of IL-6 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ in the serum compared to the control. GJHB significantly suppressed the concentration of IgM, IgG2a, IgG2b in the serum. However, no significant decrease of IgG1 was observed. From the results above, GJHB suppressed the intermediate factors during the hypersensitive immune response as well as suppressing the generation of inflammation related cytokines. Therefore, anti-allergic effect of GJHB on the contact dermatitis through immune modulation was confirmed.

The induced resistance of cucumber leaves treated with oligochitosan to the infection of the cucumber powdery mildew, Sphaerotheca fuliginea, was investigated using transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that when the plants were treated with oligochitosan and challenged with inoculum, a significant decrease of the disease occurred. The mycelial development in the treated leaves was markedly inhibited. The cytoplasm of the powdery mildew mycelium was aggregated, with its organelles disintegrated and the cytoplasm collapsed. The protoplasm in haustoria became electron-dense. Haustoria became malformed, their organelles disintegrated, the hausterial wall thickened and eventually the whole complex necrotized. The host cells produced defence structures and materials associated with infection and a hypersensitive response. The host cell wall was thickened and deeply stained; several layers of papilla structure were produced under the cell wall; dark materials were deposited between the cell wall and plasmalemma; extrahaustorial plasmalemma was deeply stained and extrahaustorial matrix appositions had large deposits of electron-dense material; the cytoplasm was disordered, host organelles disintegrated and eventually the whole host cell disintegrated and necrotized.

Sixty-seven isolates of bacterial spot pathogen (Xanthomonas spp.) collected from six provinces of Korea were tested for the identification of their pathotypes and determination of their distribution throughout Korea in an effort to genetically manage the disease. Near isogenic lines of Early Calwonder (Capsicum annuum) pepper plants carrying $Bs_1$, $Bs_2$ and $Bs_3$, and PI235047 (C. pubescens) were used as differential hosts. Race P1 was found to be predominant, followed by race P7, and races P3 and P8 were also observed. This is the first report of races P7 and P8 in Korea. The races P7 and P8 were differentiated from the former races P1 and P3, respectively, on the basis of their ability to elicit hypersensitive reactions to PI235047.

In order to test the functionality of Panax ginseng thioredoxin 1 (PgTRX1) isolated from fermented wild ginseng roots, a transient effect on physiological activity were performed over a short time frame using the Agrobacterium infiltration technique. The PgTRX1 gene isolated from fermented wild ginseng was confirmed to have a size of 579 bp, and the expression of PgTRX1 was the highest in the sample after 6 h of fermentation. As a result of constructing this gene and confirming the infiltration reaction mediated by Agrobacterium in tobacco leaves, it was found that the expression of the NbHSR203j gene was also induced as PgTRX1 expression increased. As a result of measuring the biological activity of the infiltration samples, the total phenol content increased by 35.45±1.84 to 49.01±1.84 ㎍ GAE/mL compared to the control, and the total flavonoid amount of 9.52±0.41 to 9.82±0.25 ㎍ QE/mL was slightly high. From these results, Agrobacterium-mediated PgTRX1 appears to be related to the hypersensitive response induction mechanism of plants and the production of secondary metabolites such as phenolic substances.

Background: Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) is an acquired disease which etiology remains unknown. It is characterized by the development of sensitivity to certain chemical products. Most of the hypotheses formulated to explain the syndrome associate it to a previous exposition to some kind of volatile chemical. University researchers in chemical laboratories suffer a phenomenon of multi-exposition to chemical agents at low concentration during long periods of time although in an irregular form. Many of these chemical agents have similar properties to those suspicious of causing MCS. This article studies the prevalence of MCS in laboratory researchers. Methods: The study group is university researchers in chemical laboratories. The control group was obtained from administrative personnel who work in the same universities and therefore, are not exposed to chemical products from the laboratories, but have the same exposition to the rest of environmental polluting agents from the area and from the buildings of the university. In this study, it is used the Quick Environmental Exposure and Sensitivity Inventory (QEESI) (sensitivity of 92%/specificity of 95%). Results: The results showed that the prevalence of MCS for the university researchers is not related to exposition by inhalation to multiple chemical agents, at low concentration. Conclusions: The results disagree with one of the main etiological hypotheses of MCS, which is based on the existence of hypersensitive people, who presents a response after prolonged expositions to very low concentrations during a long period of time.

Obejectives : The purpose of this study was to analyze the papers from 2015 to 2019 to identify trends in gastrointestinal studies in Korean medicine. Methods : The search for related papers was conducted in 10 oriental medicine journals that were actively reported and published, easy to search using the Internet, and freely accessible to researchers. Results : There were many studies related to the stomach, and in particular, there were many papers confirming the effectiveness of Korean medicine treatment for functional digestion, hypersensitive intestinal syndrome, and gastrointestinal reflux diseases. It is regrettable that only about 60 papers of research on gastrointestinal diseases have been published in 10 journals over the past five years of research on gastrointestinal diseases. Conclusions : These results suggest that the need to promote practical research on functional gastrointestinal disorders should be evaluated higher in the Korean medical community, and the development of gastrointestinal-related treatments for Korean medicine can improve the quality of life for all of us.

Perioperative anaphylaxis, although rare, is a severe, life-threatening unexpected systemic hypersensitivity reaction. Simultaneous administration of various drugs during anesthesia, the difficulty of communicate with patients in sedation and anesthesia, and coverage of the patient with surgical drapes are considered to be factors that impede early recognition of anaphylactic reactions. It is very important to perform an intradermal skin test because antibiotics are the most common cause of perioperative anaphylaxis. We report a case of negative-intradermal skin test antibiotic anaphylaxis mistaken for local aesthetic systemic toxicity without increase of serum tryptase for confirmative diagnostic biomaker during surgery under brachial plexus block. It is not possible to exclude the danger of anaphylaxis completely, even if it is negative-intradermal skin test and normal tryptase level. Therefore, anesthesiologists should be closely monitored and treated early for antibiotics related hypersensitive reaction, like other medicines during anesthesia.

Erwinia amylovora and E. pyrifoliae are the causative agents of destructive diseases in both apple and pear trees viz. fire blight and black shoot blight, respectively. Since the introduction of fire blight in Korea in 2015, the occurrence of both pathogens has been independently reported. The co-incidence of these diseases is highly probable given the co-existence of their pathogenic bacteria in the same trees or orchards in a city/district. Hence, this study evaluated whether both diseases occurred in neighboring orchards and whether they occurred together in a single orchard. The competition and virulence of the two pathogens was compared using growth rates in vitro and in planta. Importantly, E amylovora showed significantly higher colony numbers than E. pyrifoliae when they were co-cultured in liquid media and co-inoculated into immature apple fruits and seedlings. In a comparison of the usage of major carbon sources, which are abundant in immature apple fruits and seedlings, E. amylovora also showed better growth rates than E. pyrifoliae. In virulence assays, including motility and a hypersensitive response (HR), E. amylovora demonstrated a larger diameter of travel from the inoculation site than E. pyrifoliae in both swarming and swimming motilities. E. amylovora elicited a HR in tobacco leaves when diluted from 1:1 to 1:16 but E. pyrifoliae does not elicit a HR when diluted at 1:16. Therefore, E. amylovora was concluded to have a greater competitive fitness than E. pyrifoliae.

Erwinia amylovora causes a devastating disease called fire blight in rosaceous trees and shrubs such as apple, pear, and raspberry. To successfully infect its hosts, the pathogen requires a set of clustered genes termed hrp. Studies on the hrp system of E. amylovora indicated that it consists of three functional classes of genes. Regulation genes including hrpS, hrpS, hrpXY, and hrpL produce proteins that control the expression of other genes in the cluster. Secretion genes, many of which named hrc, encode proteins that may form a transmembrane complex, which is devoted to type III protein secretion. Finally, several genes encode the proteins that are delivered by the protein secretion apparatus. They include harpins, DspE, and other potential effector proteins that may contribute to proliferation of E. amylovora inside the hosts. Harpins are glycine-rich heat-stable elicitors of the hypersensitive response, and induce systemic acquired resistance. The pathogenicity protein DseE is homologous and functionally similar to an avirulence protein of Pseudomonas syringae. The region encompassing the hrpldsp gene cluster of E. amylovora shows features characteristic of a genomic island : a cryptic recombinase/integrase gene and a tRNA gene are present at one end and genes corresponding to those of the Escherichia coli K-12 chromosome are found beyond the region. This island, designated the Hrp pathogenicity island, is more than 60 kilobases in size and carries as many as 60 genes.
