Squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) of head and neck(SCCHN) is the sixth most common human malignant tumor. However, despite advances in prevention and treatment of SCC, the five-year survival rates for patients remain still low. To improve the outcome for patients with SCCHN, novel treatment strategies are needed. Overexpression of the epidermal growth factor(EGF) and activation of its receptor(EGFR) are associated with progressive growth of SCCHN. Vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) signaling molecules are related with neoangiogenesis and vascular metastasis of SCC. In this study, we determined the therapeutic effect of AEE788(Novartis Pharma AG, Basel, Switzerland), which is a dual inhibitor of EGFR/ErbB2 and VEGFR tyrosine kinases, on human oral SCC. At first, we screened the expression of EGFR, c-ErbB2(HER-2) and VEGFR-2 in a series of human oral SCC cell lines. And then we evaluated the effects of AEE788 on the phosphorylation of EGFR and VEGFR-2 in a oral SCC cell line expressing EGFR/HER-2 and VEGFR-2. We also evaluated the effects of AEE788 alone, or with paclitaxel(Taxol) on the oral SCC cell growth and apoptosis. As a result, all oral SCC cells expressed EGFR and VEGFR-2. Treatment of oral SCC cells with AEE788 led to dose-dependent inhibition of EGFR and VEGFR-2 phosphorylation, growth inhibition, and induction of apoptosis. Moreover, AEE788 sensitizes the cells to paclitaxel-mediated toxicity and apoptosis. These data mean EGFR and VEGFR-2 can be reliable targets for molecular therapy of oral SCC, and therefore warrant clinical use of EGFR/VEGFR inhibition in the treatment of patients with recurrent or metastatic oral SCC.

양식 산업의 문제점인 어병균을 방제하기 위한 생물 전구체의 개발을 목적으로 해산어의 내장 추출물에서 어병균인 Vibrio anguillarum의 생육을 저해하는 새로운 균주를 분리, 동정하여 Bacillus amyloliquefaciens H41으로 명명하고 생육특성 및 생육저해인자 생성 조건을 검토하였다. 분리 균의 생육 최적 조건은 기본배지로 1% peptone, 질소원으로 1.5% yeast extract, 탄소원으로 1% sucrose, 0.5% NaCl, 금속이온으로는 0.05% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_20$이었으며 pH는 7.0-8.0, 온도는 $28-35^{\circ}C$에서 20시간의 진탕배양이었다. V. anguillarum 생육 저해물질은 B. amyloliquefaciens H41의 배양 상등 액에서 볼 수 있었는데 paper-disk 법으로 투명환의 생성여부로 확인하였다. 분리 균에 의한 생육저해 물질 생산 최적 조건은 1% peptone, 1.5% yeast extract, 1% NaCl, 0.05% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_20$, 1%의 sucrose이었으며 최적 pH는 7.5, 최적온도는 $35^{\circ}C$이었다. 분리 균은 최적 배양조건하에서 저해물질을 배양 후 16시간부터 24시간대에 가장 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 저해 활성반응은 분리 균에서는 저해 활성을 나타내었으나 B. amyloliquefaciens KCTC1724 표준균주에는 저해활성을 나타나지 않는 대조를 보였다. 또한 분리 균에 의해 생산된 저해물질은 V. anguillarum 에는 생육 억제 효과를 나타내었으나 다른 인체 병원성 Vibrio에는 전혀 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타나 균주 선택성이 특이적이었다.

어류 질병 치료를 위한 probiont의 개발에 목적을 두고 어병균 Vibrio anguillarum NCMB1의 생육에 저해물질을 생산하는 Bacillus amyloliquefaciens H41균주를 분리하고 이 물질의 특성을 규명하기 위하여 정제를 시행하였다. 분리 균을 배양한 배양 상등액을 70% 염석, 투석하여 조 효소액으로 제작하고 조 효소액을 DEAE-sephadex, A-50 ion exchange chromatography, sephadex G-200 gel filtration column chromatography을 통하여 정제하고 SDS-PAGE 를 통하여 단일밴드를 확인하고 최종 회수율 2.9%을 얻을 수 있었으며 40.8배의 정제된 V. anguillarum NCMB1 생육저해물질을 얻을 수 있었다. 정제된 저해물질은 저해정도에 따라 단위를 설정하여 활성을 측정하였으며, 분자량은 48 kDa 로 확인되었으며 정제물질의 활성을 위한 최적 반응 pH와 온도는 pH 7.5와 $30^{\circ}C$로 확인되었다. 금속이온의 효과에 있어서는 $CoCl_2$, $HgCl_2$, $ZnSO_4$, $AgNo_3$에서는 완전히 저해되는 양상을 나타내었고 $MgSO_4$, $MnSO_4$에서 미미한 효소활성의 증가를 나타내었다. 그리고 염에 관한 안정성은 일반 해수의 농도인 3%의 농도에서도 활성을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다. 정제된 저해물질을 현재 상업적으로 사용하고 있는 화학처리제나 항생제와 함께 효율성을 비교 해 보았을 때 저해물질은 약 78%의 저해 활성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었고 항생제보다는 효율성이 낮았으나 독성검사를 위해 정제물질을 살아있는 어류에 투여하였으나 어떤 해수어도 폐사하지 않는 것으로 보아 어류 자체엔 독성을 나타내지 않는 물질로 나타났다. 따라서 B. amyloliquefaciens H41 균주가 생산하는 정제 물질이 V. anguillarum 생육에 저해물질로 작용하는 것으로 밝혀졌으며 친환경적인 특성을 가진 물질로 밝혀졌다.

A crude extract of Smphytum officinale L. (comfrey) was for its ability to inhibit he growth of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and expression of the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-II) gene. The DNA synthesis of hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, Hep G2, Hep 3B, and PLC/PRF/5 was inhibited by a crude extract of Smphytum officinale in both a time- and a dose-dependent manners. This plant extract also inhibited expression of the IGF-II gene. Since IGF-II exerts a mitogenic effect on Hep G2 cells, these results suggest that the growth inhibition by Symphytum officinale extract is, in part, mediated through the inhibition of IGF-II gene expression.

Cell survival is the result of a balance between programmed cell death and cellular proliferation. Cell membrane receptors and their associated signal transducing proteins control these processes. Of the numerous receptors and signaling proteins, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is one of the most important receptors involved in signaling pathways implicated in the proliferation and survival of cancer cells. EGFR is often highly expressed in human tumors including oral squamous cell carcinomas, and there is increasing evidence that high expression of EGFR is correlated with poor clinical outcome of common human cancers. Therefore, we examined the antiproliferative activity of gefitinib, epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI), in head and neck cancer cell lines. SCC-9, KB cells were cultured and growth inhibition activity of gefitinib was measured with MTT assay. To study influence of gefitinib in cell cycle, we performed cell cycle analysis with flow cytometry. Western blot was done to elucidate the expression of EGFR in cell lines and phosphorylation of EGFR and downstream kinase protein, Erk and Akt. Significant growth inhibition was observed in SCC-9 cells in contrast with KB cells. Also, flow cytometric analysis showed G1 phase arrest only in SCC-9 cells. In Western blot analysis for investigation of EGFR expression and downstream molecule phosphorylation, gefitinib suppressed phosphorylation of EGFR and downstream protein kinase Erk, Akt in SCC-9. However, in EGFR positive KB cells, weak expression of active form of Erk and Akt and no inhibitory activity of phosphorylation in Erk and Akt was observed. The antiproliferative activity of gefitinib was not correlated with EGFR expression and some possibility of phosphorylation of Erk and Akt as a predictive factor of gefitinib response was emerged. Further investigations on more reliable predictive factor indicating gefitinib response are awaited to be useful gefitinib treatment in head and neck cancer patients.

The purpose of this study was to investigate relationships between adolescent's behavioral inhibition and social anxiety focused on the moderating effects of perceived parental rearing behaviors. Subjects were 749 7th through 9th grade students attending schools in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. Major findings were that (1) boys' and girls' behavioral inhibition was an important factor predicting social anxiety; and (2) perceived parental rearing behaviors played the role of moderating variables on the influence of behavioral inhibition of boys' and girls' social anxiety. In the boys' group, perceived intrusion had a moderating effect on the relationships between behavioral inhibition and social anxiety; in the girls' group, perceived warmth and perceived granting of autonomy acted as moderating variables on social anxiety.

These studies were conducted to investigate the antiinflammatory effects and the mechanism of action of natural products. We used the methods of "carrageenan induced foot edema" , "PAF (platelet activating factor) induced foot edema" , "inhibition test of vascular permeability" , "inhibition test of white blood cell migration" , "formation of granuloma" and "adjuvant induced arthritis" to examine the antiinflammatory erects of Angelica gigas, Ledebouriella seseloides, Ginkgo biloba and Bamboo salt (Jukyom). The oral administration of the water extract of Angelica gigantis radix, the methanolic extract of Ginkgo folium and the aqueous solution of Bamboo salt showed antiinflammatory effect on carrageenan and PAF induced foot edema in SD rat at a dose of 1 g/kg. The same administration of methanolic extract of Ginkgo folium also inhibited the vascular permeability in mice. The aqueous solution of Bamboo salt inhibited the formation of ganuloma in SD rats at a oral dose of 1 g/kg. Angelica gigantis radix seems to have antiinflammatory effect by inhibition of PAF.

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.
