  • . Mediator of transcriptional regulation is the evolutionary conserved coactivator complex that plays He central role in the integration and recruitment of diverse regulatory signals and transcription machinery to certain promoters. In yeast, each Mediator subunit is required for transcriptional regulation of a distinct group of genes. In order to decipher the mechanistic roles of Mediator proteins in regulating developmental specific gene expression, we isolated, and analyzed a multiprotein complex containing Drosophila Mediate. homologs (dMediato.). dMediato. interacts with several sequence-sperific transcription factors and basal transcription machinery, and is critical for activated transcription in response to diverse transcriptional activators. In order to elucidate the function of Mediator in metazoan development, we isolated mutants of a conserved Mediate. subunit, Drosophila Med6 (dMed6). dMed6 null homozygotes failed to pupate and died in the third larval instar. Larval mitotic cells and most imaginal discs showed severe defects in proliferation, but no apparent morphological defect was observed in other larval tissues. Clonal analysis of dMed6 mutant cells revealed that dMed6 is essential for cell viability and proliferation of most adult cell types. Drosophila cDNA microarray, quantitative RT-PCR, and in situ expression analyses of developmentally regulated genes in dMed6 mutants showed that transcriptional activation of a subset of genes involved in neuroblast proliferation in the larval brain were most affected. Our results suggest that dMed6 is required in most for transcriptional regulation of a subset of genes important for cell proliferation and metabolism.

  • Canine osteosarcoma is the most common bone tumor in dog and is characterized by locally aggressive and highly metastatic behavior [1]. Generally malignant tumors meta stasizes by hematogenious routes and rarely through lymphatic pathway, and the lymph node is uncommon metastatic site [2,3]. In this case, the patient has a typical osteosarcoma on his proximal humerus that is the common form of canine OS [4,5]. But the tumor made severe metastatic form to the right axillary lymph node which has a diffuse contribution of osteoid matrix all of the tissue. So, the case is the valuable topic for evaluate the correlation of metastasis to lymph node which is near the primary tumor region and pro gnosis of canine appendicular osteosarcoma. (omitted)

  • 본 연구는 의학 분야 Web DB의 품질평가를 위해 무료 PubMed와 상용 Embase DB를 선행연구 분석을 통해 품질평가 기준을 추출하여 객관적으로 측정하기 쉬운 평가항목을 중심으로 발견적ㆍ실무적 비교 평가를 실시한 것이다. 그 결과 PubMed는 최신성, 저널 형태의 논문 비중, 초록 보유 자료와 영어자료의 비중, 전자 저널 원문 링크 출판사 수, 자관 소장여부를 표시하는 LinkOut과 구입비용에서 우수하였다. 반면 Embase는 포괄성, 제약과 화학 분야, 수록정보의 다양한 형태에서 우수하였다. 따라서 상용 DB 도입의 타당성 검토와 이용자 교육 및 도서관 정보서비스는 이러한 두 DB의 품질평가 결과를 바탕으로 이루어져야 한다.

  • When the lowest dose level compared with zero-dose control has significant difference in effect, it is referred as minimum effective dose (MED). In this paper, we discuss several nonparametric methods for finding MED using updated rank at each sequential test step in small sample size and suggest new nonparametric procedures based on placement. Monte Carlo Simulation is adapted to compare power and Familywise Error Rate(FWE) of the new procedures with those of discussed nonparametric tests for finding MED.
