본 연구에서는 복분자(라즈베리)의 돼지 비장 임파구에 대한 면역 반응을 조사하였다. 복분자의 70% 에틸 알코올 추출물을 돼지 비장 임파구에 처리하였다. 복분자의 추출물은 비장 면역세포의 증식을 촉진하였으며, 복분자(라즈베리)의 추출물은 돼지 비장 임파구에 대해 CD3-T 세포, CD4-T 세포와 B 세포의 구성분을 증가시켰다. 복분자 추출물은 비장 임파구 세포의 활력을 증가시킴으로써 면역반응을 향상시켰다. 본 연구에서 우리는 돼지 비장세포에 복분자 추출물을 처리한 결과 8개의 유전자 발현이 증가되었음을 확인했는데, 이들 중에는 세포구조와 면역반응에 관여하는 유전자가 포함되었다. 특히 microtubule-associated protein 4, cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain, tumor necrosis factor alpha, 및 lymphotoxin-beta receptor precursor 유전자 발현이 증가되었다. 한편 10개의 유전자는 복분자 추출물에 의해 그 발현이 감소되었다.

The objective of this study was to elucidate the dynamics of microtubules in post-ovulatory aging in vivo and in vitro of mouse oocytes. The fresh ovulated oocytes were obtained from oviducts of superovulated female ICR mice at 16 hours after hCG injection. The post-ovulatory aged oocytes were collected at 24 and 48 hours after hCG injection from in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Immunocytochemistry was performed on ${\beta}$-tubulin and acetylated ${\alpha}$-tubulin. The microtubules were localized in the spindle assembly, which was barrel-shaped or slightly pointed at its poles and located peripherally in the fresh ovulated oocytes. The frequency of misaligned metaphase chromosomes were significantly increased in post-ovulatory aged oocytes after 48 hours of hCG injection. The spindle length and width of post-ovulatory aged oocytes were significantly different from those of fresh ovulated oocytes, respectively. The staining intensity of acetylated ${\alpha}$-tubulin showed stronger in post-ovulatory aged oocytes than that in the fresh ovulated oocytes. In the aged oocytes, the spindles had moved towards the center of the oocytes from their original peripheral position and elongated, compared with the fresh ovulated oocytes. Microtubule organizing centers were formed and observed in the cytoplasm of the aged oocytes. On the contrary, it was not observed in the fresh ovulated oocytes. The alteration of spindle formation and chromosomes alignment substantiates the poor development and the increase of disorders from the post-ovulatory aged oocytes. It might be important to fertilize on time in ovulated oocytes for the developmental competence of embryos with normal karyotypes.

A new piperazine derivative, 8J-8029, is a synthetic anti-cancer agent which exhibits both microtubule and topoisomerase II inhibiting activities. In this study, we investigated the ability of 8J-8029 for anti-angiogenesis and apoptosis. 8J-8029 decreased the bFGF-induced angiogenesis in the CAM and the mouse Matrigel implants, in vivo. 8J-8029 inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion, tube fonnation, and expression of MMP-2 in BAECs. In addition, 8J-8029 reduced the cell viability in HepG2 cells, caused the production of fragmented DNA and the morphological changes corresponding to apoptosis. 8J-8029 also elicited the release of cytochrome c and the activation of caspase-3. Taken together, these results suggest 8J-8029 may be a candidate for anti-cancer agent with the ability to inhibit the angiogenesis of endothelial cells and to induce the apoptosis of tumor cells.

Like many fungal pathogens, the conidium and appressorium play key roles during polycyclic dissemination and infection of Magnaporthe oryzae. Ran-binding protein microtubule-organizing center (RanBPM) is a highly conserved nucleocytoplasmic protein. In animalia, RanBPM has been implicated in apoptosis, cell morphology, and transcription. However, the functional roles of RanBPM, encoded by MGG_00753 (named MoRBP9) in M. oryzae, have not been elucidated. Here, the deletion mutant ΔMorbp9 for MoRBP9 was generated via homologous recombination to investigate the functions of this gene. The ΔMorbp9 exhibited normal conidial germination and vegetative growth but dramatically reduced conidiation compared with the wild type, suggesting that MoRBP9 is involved in conidial production. ΔMorbp9 conidia failed to produce appressoria on hydrophobic surfaces, whereas ΔMorbp9 still developed aberrantly shaped appressorium-like structures at hyphal tips on the same surface, suggesting that MoRBP9 is involved in the morphology of appressorium-like structures from hyphal tips and is critical for development of appressorium from germ tubes. Taken together, our results indicated that MoRBP9 played a pleiotropic role in polycyclic dissemination and infection-related morphogenesis of M. oryzae.

미세소관(microtubule) 위를 이동하는 키네신은 분비소포를 이동시키는 운동단백질이다. KIF5s (KIF5A, KIF5B and KIF5C)는 세포막으로 싸인 각종 세포 내 소기관과 결합하여 미세소관을 따라 목적지까지 이동시킨다는 결과는 알려져 있지만, 어떻게 상대의 cargo를 인식하는지는 밝혀지지 않았다. 본 연구는 KIF5B의 결합 단백질을 동정하기 위하여 효모 two-hybrid system을 사용하여 KIF5B와 특이적으로 결합하는 Myo9b을 확인하였다. Myo9b는 액틴위를 이동하는 운동단백질로 다른 KIF5s들과도 결합함을 효모 two-hybrid assay로 확인하였다. 또한 Myo9s의 GTPase 활성화 단백질(GAP) 영역은 KIF5B와 결합하는데 필수영역임을 확인하였고, 이러한 단백질간의 결합은 Glutathione S-transferase (GST) pull-down assay를 통하여서도 확인하였다. 생쥐의 뇌 파쇄액에 KIF5B들의 항체로 면역침강을 행하여 Myo9s 단백질을 확인한 결과, KIF5s는 Myo9s 단백질과 특이적으로 함께 침강하였다. 이러한 결과들은 kinesin-I는 액틴 결합 운동단백질과 직접 결합함을 보여준다.

인삼 (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) 캘러스 조직으로부터 분리한 원형질체를 DMSO가 O％에서 8％까지 여러 가지 농도로 첨가된 원형질체 배양배지 (1 mg/L 2,4-D, 4 mg/L NAA, 1 mg/L BAP, 0.4 M mannitol 및 0.8% agar가 첨가된 MS배지)에서 배양하였다. DMSO가 첨가되지 않은 배지에서 배양된 원형질체의 세포벽 재생률은 약 62%이고 세포분열빈도는 약 7％이었다. 반면에, 1% DMSO가 첨가된 배지에서 배양된 원형질체의 세포벽 재생률과 세포분열빈도는 각각 약 83%와 약 27%로 높게 나타났다. 그러나 배양된 원형질체의 세포활성은 배지에 첨가된 DMSO의 유무나 농도와는 관계없이 모든 배지에서 83∼88%로 차이를 보이지 않았다. 1% DMSO가 첨가된 배지에서 3일 동안 배양된 원형질체를 투과전자현미경으로 관찰하면 원형질막 근처에 평행으로 배열하고 있는 미소관들이 관찰되었다. 또한 원형질막 표면에는 세포벽 성분인 cellulose fibril들이 연결되어 다발을 형성하고 있는 것이 주사전자현미경으로 관찰되었다. DMSO가 첨가되지 않은 배지에서 배양된 원형질체에서는 이러한 전자현미경적 구조들이 관찰되지 않았다. 원형질체 배양배지에 첨가된 DMSO는 미소관편제센타 (MTOC)의 형성에 의하여 세포벽 재생과 세포분열을 유도하는 것으로 생각된다.

P48 Ebp1 is expressed in rapidly proliferating cells such as cancer cells and accelerates cell growth and survival. However, its expression pattern and role in central nervous system development have not been studied. Here, we demonstrated the spatiotemporal expression pattern of p48 Ebp1 during embryonic development and the postnatal period. During embryonic development, p48 Ebp1 was highly expressed in the brain. Expression gradually decreased after birth but was still more abundant than p42 expression after birth. Strikingly, we found that p48 Ebp1 was expressed in a cell type specific manner in neurons but not astrocytes. Moreover, p48 Ebp1 physically interacted with beta tubulin but not alpha tubulin. This fits with its accumulation in distal microtubule growth cone regions. Furthermore, in injured hippocampal slices, p48 Ebp1 introduction promoted axon regeneration. Thus, we speculate that p48 Ebp1 might contribute to microtubule dynamics acting as an MAP and promotes CNS axon regeneration.
