Two cases with papillary cystic neoplasm of the pancreas are reviewed and discussed. Up to recently, the tumors have been misclassified as nonfunctioning islet cell tumor or carcinoma, acinar cell carcinoma, papillary cystadenocarcinoma, or pancreatoblastoma. It frequently has been managed with aggressive surgery such as pancreatoduodenectomy. The tumors are well encapsulated and the cut surfaces are characteristically solid and hemorrhagic. Ultrasonography and CT scan are the most useful tools for the diagnosis. The neoplasms usually behave like a very low grade malignancy, so complete removal is the treatment of choice for the tumor arising anywhere in the pancreas. We have a boy and a girl who have papillary cystic neoplasm. The boy was 12 years old and the girl was 14 years old. Both underwent distal pancreatectomy and the progress were uneventful.

PALMIWON is composed of 8 oriental herbs which has been known to show some pharmacological effects in kidney, blood vessels and immune systems, and used for the treatment of kid ney disease, hypertension, nervous disease and diabetic mellitus in the Orient for a long time. Based on our previous report that PALMIWON showed different effects on immune cells and ${\beta}$-cells, the immunoreactivity of ICSA (Islet Cell Surface Antibody) with ${\beta}$-cell (RINm5F) and the cell proliferation and function of interleukin-1${\beta}$ damaged ${\beta}$-cells in the presence of PALMIWON were examined. It was observed that PALMIWON significantly inhibited the immunoreactivity of ICSA with ${\beta}$-cell, and markedly increased cell proliferation and insulin release of interleukin-1${\beta}$ damaged ${\beta}$-cells.

The present study was undertaken in order to elucidate the effect of pretreatment with Saengchinyanghyoltang(SYT) on changes in serum glucose level, body weight. water consumption. serum insulin concentration and activities of pancreatic enzymes in rats treated with streptozocin(STZ)-induced diabetic state. Histological studies were also carried out to elevate the effects on pancreatic tissues and Langelhans islet cells. SYT pretreatment in STZ diabetic rats inhibited the rise of fasting serum glucose concentration and water consumption. Pretreatment with SYT significantly increased the concentration of blood insulin and body weight changes compared to the STZ-treated group. Pancreatic lipase and trypsin activities were increased. but amylase activity was decreased and pancreatic ${\beta}-cell$ was destroyed by STZ but. pretreatment with SYT prevented these STZ-induced changes.

Alloxan is a diabetogenic agent which destroys the beta-cell of the Langerhan's islet of pancreas and it disturbs the secretion of insulin. It is known that alloxan interfers with the hepatic enzyme activity and some aspect of the other metabolism. The author attempted to investigate the influence of reserpine upon the serum transaminase activity, blood sugar and serum total cholesterol contents of rabbit treated alloxan. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. The serum GOT and GPT activity of alloxanized rabbit pretreated with reserpine showed marked decrease compared with alloxan control group. 2. The blood sugar level of alloxanized rabbit pretreated with reserpine showed lower than the alloxan control group. 3. The total cholesterol level of alloxanized rabbit pretreated with reserpine was lower than that of alloxan control group.

Four out of 15 dogs were successfully induced diabetes mellitus with intravenous iqiection of 30 mg of streptozotgin and 50 mg of alloxan monohydrate per kilogram body weight and maintained more than 9 weeks without iqiection of insulin or oral hypoglycemic sgent Histopathologicallyi these four dogs have typical diabetic lesions such as degeneration and vacuolation of pancreatic islet cells, and fatty change of liver at necropsy in the end of study. Serum glucose level increased dramatically at 24 hours post-injection but serum fructosamine level increased gradually and reached plateau at 31-41 days post-injection of streptozotocin and alloxan. Serum fructosamine concert%lion correlated very well with serum glucose concentration of preceding 4-7 weeks in experimentally induced diabetic dogs. Our data suggest that serum fructosamine reflects mean glucose concentration of preceding 4-7 weeks in experimentally induced diabetic dogs.

Shrimp of the family Stenopodidae occurr in tropical, subtropical and warm temperate parts of the world. Thirty-seven species of four genera (Juxtastenopus, Odontozona, Richardina, and Stenopus) of the family Stenopodidae have been reported in the world. Among them, only Stenopus hispidus of the family Stenopodidae has been recorded from Korean waters. The stenopodid shrimp, Odontozona arbur is reported for the first time from Korea. During a taxonomic survey of the deacapod crustaceans in Korean waters, O. arbur was collected by scuba diving in approximately 14 m depth from the Munseom Islet, in Jejudo Island on 28 Jun 2018. Odontozona arbur is the second species of the family Stenopodidae in Korea. It is easily distinguished from other species of this family in Korea by the entire dorsal surface of the abdominal somites. The morphology of this species is described and illustrated herein.

Ultrastructural characteristics of hemocytic differentiation pathway in Sericinus montetla Grey were observed with transmission electron microscope. Hemocytic differentiation took place in loose islets of hemopoietic organs as indicated by the presence of differentiating hemocytes; prohemocytes, plasmatocytes, granular cells and spherule cells. They are differentiatied from the stem cells through individual cell lineages. However, differentiating aspects of the oenocytoids were not observed. According to Brehelin and Zachary (1986), the premature hemocytes around the hemopoietic organs were classified into five types; prohemocytes, plasmatocytes, granular cells, spherule cells and oenocytoids.

Although insulin has been available for the treatment of diabetes mellitus for more than half a centry, the deficiency of conventional insulin therapy for diabetic patients have, to this date, not been satisfactorily overcome by any method. The development of potential delivery systems for insulin is highly important to prevent excessive fluctuation of plasma glucose levels, which results in long term complications in the diabetic. There are three major approaches toward development of glucose responding insulin delivery systems: A bioengineering approach is to devise mechanical components capable of releasing insulin in amounts appropriate to varying blood-glucose requirements. A biological approach relies upon cultured, living pancreatic beta cells encapsulated to constitute an insulin delivery unit. A biochemical approach is to synthesize a stable and biologically active glycosylated insulin that is complementary to the binding sites of lectin. This paper will cover several specific areas, including pancreatic transplantation(total or isolated islet cells), artificial pancreases(bioengineering or biological approach), controlled delivery system, glucose sensitive membrane systems, and a self-regulating insulin delivery system.

This study was carried out to determine the lethal water temperature and lethal concentrations of phnol and lead on Anodonta woodiana collected from Bam islet in Han river, Seoul, Korea. Lethal temperature$(LT_{48,50})$ on a woodiana was $37-38^{\circ}C$, and lethal concentrations$(LC_{50})$ of phenol and lead nitate were 1200 ppm and 220 ppm, respectively.
