Every non-associative algebra L corresponds to its symmetric semi-Lie algebra $L_{[,]}$ with respect to its commutator. It is an interesting problem whether the equality $Aut{non}(L)=Aut_{semi-Lie}(L)$ holds or not [2], [13]. We find the non-associative algebra automorphism groups $Aut_{non}\; \frac\;{(WN_{0,0,1}_{[0,1,r_1...,r_p])}$ and $Aut_{non-Lie}\; \frac\;{(WN_{0,0,1}_{[0,1,r_1...,r_p])}$ where every automorphism of the automorphism groups is the composition of elementary maps [3], [4], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11]. The results of the paper show that the F-algebra automorphism groups of a polynomial ring and its Laurent extension make easy to find the automorphism groups of the algebras in the paper.

This study was carried out to investigate the callus formation and to determine the composition and contents of the Hee amino acids in seedlings and callus of Rhodiola sachalinensis. The callus formation from the part of seedling-roots was the most effective on MS (Murashige and Skoog) media supplemented with 2.0 mg $L^{-1}$2,, 4-D included in 1.0 mg $L^{-1}$ kinetin than the other experimental plots which prepared with the different concentration of the various growth regulators. Free amino acids extracted from the explants and the callus were a total of 25∼26 kinds. Especially, the basic amino acids such as arginine, lysine and histidine released in callus were found relatively in a large quantity. These results suggest that the cultured callus of Rhodiola sachatinensis could induce for the mass production of the other useful ingredients.

When cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L NAA alone or 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BA, immature zygotic embryos of Stewartia koreana formed embryogenic calli and somatic embryos. In investigate effect of sucrose concentration on somatic embryo development, embryogenic calli were transferred to MS basal medium containing 1.5,3, 6 or 9% sucrose. The greatest frequency of somatic embryos was obtained on medium containing 6% sucrose. However addition of 1.5 or 9% sucrose to medium inhibited somatic embryo germination and development into normal plantlet After 5 weeks of hardening culture on medium containing 6% sucrose, somatic embryos were transferred to half strangth MS medium supplemented with 0.1% charcol, wherein these embryo developed into the normal plantlets.

Background/Objectives: Despite multiple approaches of treatments for salivary duct carcinoma, there has been a need for more successful treatment methods because of its poor prognosis. Treatment options like immunotherapy using new technologies have been attempted. Based on recent study results indicating that targeting programmed death receptors are effective in treating various cancers, this study aimed to identify the frequency of PD-L1 expression and its impact on survival rate in salivary duct carcinoma. Materials & Methods: We studied 33 patients with salivary gland cancer who were available for histologic specimens. We examined the expression of PD-L1 in the tissues and analyzed the association with the survival rate and the association with various clinical parameters. Results: According to this study and review of similar studies, we discovered that the expression of PD-L1 in salivary duct carcinoma was lower than other types of cancers. The impact of PD-L1 on survival rate also showed inconsistency in salivary duct carcinoma. Conclusion: Immunotherapy by PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade in salivary duct carcinoma needs further evaluation for clinical application.

Mushrooms were collected at Mt. Gyeryong, Mt. Chilgab, Mt. Ducyu, Mt. Chiri, Mt Songri and the regions of Chungnam Province for 15 months from July, 1983 to October, 1984. They were classified into 19 species, four varieties and one form of Lactarius. These species were grouped into six sections according to Hesler and Smith. Of these Lactarius, nine species and four varieties appeared to be newly found ones.

It has been shown that CA repeats in the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of bcl-2 mRNA contribute the constitutive decay of bcl-2 mRNA and that hnRNP L (heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L) interacts with CA repeats in the 3'-UTR of bcl-2 mRNA, both in vitro and in vivo. The aim of this study was to determine whether the alteration of hnRNP L affects the stability of bcl-2 mRNA in vivo. Human breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells were transfected with hnRNP L-specific shRNA or hnRNP L-expressing vector to decrease or increase hnRNP L levels, respectively, followed by an actinomycin D chase. An RT-PCR analysis showed that the rate of degradation of endogenous bcl-2 mRNA was not affected by the decrease or increase in the hnRNP L levels. Furthermore, during apoptosis or autophagy, in which bcl-2 expression has been reported to decrease, no difference in the degradation of bcl-2 mRNA was observed between control and hnRNP L-knock down MCF-7 Cells. On the other hand, the levels of AUF-1 and nucleolin, transacting factors for ARE in the 3'UTR of bcl-2 mRNA, were not significantly affected by the decrease in hnRNP L, suggesting that a disturbance in the quantitative balance between these transacting factors is not likely to interfere with the effect of hnRNP L. Collectively, the findings indicate that the decay of bcl-2 mRNA does not appear to be directly controlled by hnRNP L in vivo.

Hypocotyl explants of flowering cabbage were precultured on MS medium without kanamycin and then cocultured with Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404;;pGA875 harboring insect resistantce proteinase inhibitor II(PI-II) gene in MS liquid medium adjusted pH 5.5 for 72hr. These explants were transferred to MS medium containing 20 mg/L kanamycin, 500 mg/L carbenicillin, and 1 mg/L BA. The explants were subsequently subcultured every 2 weeks. After 4 weeks of subculture, kanamycin-resistant shoots were obtained from selection medium. Leaves of putative transformants survived on MS selection medium containing 30 mg/L kanamycin. Incoporation of the PI-II gene into flowering cabbage was confirmed by PCR analysis of genomic DNA. Southern blot analysis showed that ECL-labeled probe for PI-II gene was hybridized to the expected amplified genomic DNA fragment of about 500 by from transgenic flowering cabbage.

Large offshore structure are to be considered for oil storage facilities , marine terminals, power plants, offshore airports, industrial complexes and recreational facilities. Some of them have already been constructed. Some of the envisioned structures will be of the artificial-island type, in which the bulk of structures may act as significant barriers to normal waves and the prediction of the wave intensity will be of importance for design of structure. The present study deals wave scattering problem combining reflection and diffraction of waves due to the shape of the impermeable rigid upright structure, subject to the excitation of a plane simple harmonic wave coming from infinity. In this study, a finite difference technique for the numerical solution is applied to the boundary integral equation obtained for wave potential. The numerical solution is verified with the analytic solution. The model is applied to various structures, such as the detached breakwater (3L${\times}$0.1L), bird-type breakwater(318L${\times}$0.17L), cylinder-type and crescent -type structure (2.89L${\times}$0.6L, 0.8L${\times}$0.26L).The result are presented in wave height amplification factors and wave height diagram. Also, the amplification factors across the structure or 1 or 2 wavelengths away from the structure are compared with each given case. From the numerical simulation for the various boundary types of structure, we could figure out the transformation pattern of waves and predict the waves and predict the wave intensity in the vicinity of large artificial structures.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Xanthium sibiricum Patr. on carcinogenesis. Method: Water extract from Xanthium sibiricum Patr. (XPW) was prepared and investigated for the potential antitumor activity and inhibition of benzo[a]pyrene-DNA adduct formation and free radical formation. Result: It was shown that the water possess considerable toxicity toward tumor cell lines. Concentration of XPW at 1.0 mg/mL and 2.5 mg/mL resulted in more than 30% inhibition of growth in HeLa cells. Toxicity of XPW to A549 revealed that 54% inhibition of growth at concentration of 2.5 mg/mL. At concentrations of 0.5 mg/mL, 1.0 mg/mL and 2.5 mg/mL of XPW, the binding of [$^3H$]B[a]P metabolites to DNA of human Chang cell was inhibited by 19%, 33%, and 41%, respectively. There 18% and 32% inhibition in the free radical formation with XPW at the concentration of 1.0 mg/mL and 2.5 mg/mL, respectively. Conclusion: Water extract from Xanthium sibiricum Patr. (XPW) has antitumor and cancer chemopreventive activities.
