This study was conducted to evaluate the disinfection effects of Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli treated with 461-nm LED and pH 5 at $15^{\circ}C$ for 10 h. S. aureus strains were decreased by about 4 log CFU/mL after 461-nm LED irradiation treatment alone for 10 h. E. coli strains were inactivated by irradiation. However, when microorganisms were subjected to a combined treatment of 461-nm LED and pH 5, both strains were inactivated by irradiation for 7 h. The highest D-value was 5.05 h for S. aureus ATCC 27664 and the lowest D-value was 1.39 h for E.coli O157: H7 ATCC 35150 (p<0.05) with 461-nm LED irradiation. For the combined treatment (461-nm LED and pH 5), the highest D-value was 1.58 h for S. aureus ATCC 19095, whereas the lowest D-value was 0.83 h for S. aureus ATCC 27664 (p<0.05). These data showed that bactericidal effects of a combination of pH 5 with 461-nm LED irradiation were enhanced compared to 461-nm LED irradiation alone.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of restorative materials on the marginal leakage of wedge-shaped class V cavity. The study was performed in vitro in 25 defect-free permanent, extracted teeth. Wedge-shaped class V cavities were prepared and then the teeth were randomly selected and restored according to the following. Group A : restoration with Tetric Ceram(composite resin) Group B : restoration with Tetric flow(flowable resin) Group C : restoration with Compoglass after acid etching(compomer) Group D : restoration with Compoglass(compomer) Group E : restoration with Fuji II LC improved(resin-modified GIC) After thermocycling, the specimens were immersed in 5% basic fuchsin solution for 6 hours and sectioned longitudinally through the center of the restoration. The degree of marginal leakage was measured as the extent of dye penetration under the stereomicroscope. The data were analysed using one-way ANOVA. When significant differences found, multiple comparisons were made using Duncan's Multiple Range Test. The results were as follows: 1. The occlusal margins of all groups except for Fuji II LC improved showed lesser leakage than gingival margins and there was statistically significant difference(p<0.05). 2. At the occlusal margins, group A, B showed same marginal leakage scores, and others were decreased as group C, D, E in that order. There were statistically significant difference between group A, Band group D, E, group C and group E(p<0.05). 3. At the gingival margins, group B, C showed same marginal leakage scores, and others were decreased as group A, D, E in that order. But there was statistically significant difference between group B, C and group E(p<0.05). 4. In the Compoglass restoration, acid-etching technique was beneficial for marginal sealing ability at all of margins. But there was no statistically significant difference (p>0.05). In the restorations for wedge-shaped class V cavities, resin restoration with acid etching technique is recommended.

Platinum(II) complexes(where, $[Pt(L)_2X_2]$; L=isoxazole(isox), 3,5-dimethylisoxazole(3,5-diMeisox), 3-methyl,5-phenylisoxazole(3-Me,5-Phisox), and 4-amino-3,5-dimethylisoxazole(4-ADI); X=Cl, Br) with planar ligands are investigated on antitumor activity by MM2 and EHMO calculations. It was found that, the net atomic charges of the halogen atoms in all of cis-, trans-isomers are greater than that of the nitrogen with planar form, indicating that ionic character of Pt-X bond is greater than that of Pt-N. Also, the ${\sigma}MO$ energy level($E{\sigma}_{(Pt-X)}$) of the interaction between $d_{x2-y2}$ orbital of Pt atom and $p_x$ orbital of X found to be higher than that of between $d_{x2-y2}$ orbital of Pt atom and $p_x$ orbital of N about all the complexes. It is found that bond strength of between Pt and X atom is weaker than that of between Pt and N atom. The ${\sigma}MO$ energy level($E{\sigma}_{(Pt-X)}$) of trans- complexes found to be higher than that of cis- complexes, as a result of bond strength of Pt-X in cis- and trans-complexes, for all the complexes. The degree of dissociation of X atom in Pt-X bond for trans-complexes are related to antitumor activity and the logIA value of inhibitory activity coefficient(IA).

Let $p(z)$ be an analytic function defined on the open unit disk D and $p(0)=1$. Condition ${\beta}$ in terms of complex numbers D and real E with -1 < E < 1 and ${\mid}D{\mid}{\leq}1$ is determined such that $1+{\beta}{\prec}\frac{1+Dz}{1+Ez}$ implies $p(z){\prec}\sqrt{1+z}$. Furthermore, the expression $1+\frac{{\beta}zp^{\prime}(z)}{p(z)}$ and $1+\frac{{\beta}zp^{\prime}(z)}{p^2(z)}$ are considered in obtaining similar results.

To develop new therapy for prevention and treatment of hair loss is very important according to increase of the number of hair loss people. The aim of this study was to investigate the hair growth promoting effects of pectin lyase-modified red ginseng extract (GS-E3D). We examined antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, human hair dermal papilla cells (HHDPC) proliferation, and testoterone-induced $5{\alpha}$-reductase inhibitory effects. GS-E3D show not only 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and xanthine oxidase inhibitory effects as an anti-oxidant property, but also lip-oxygenase and hyaluronidase inhibitory effects as an anti-inflammatory property. Human hair dermal papilla cells proliferation by GS-E3D was higher than those of minoxidil or finasteride, using the positive controls. Moreover, GS-E3D exhibited $5{\alpha}$-reductase inhibitory activities after stimulating by testoterone. The present results indicate that GS-E3D has a potential to be as an hair growth promoting agent for cosmetic materials.

Effects of Estradiol-$17\beta(E_2)$ and 2, 4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2, 4-D) on vitellogenin(VTG) production were investigated in primary hepatocyte culture of olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. Highest survival rate of hepatocyte were observed at $27^{\circ}C$, which markedly declined equal to 50% of those of $15^{\circ}C$. Vitellogenin production peaked at the concentration of $10^{-6}M\;E_2$. No effect was observed on VTG production at various concentrations of 2, 4-D. However, a low concentration of 2, 4-D (ie, $10^{-8}M$) only appeared increased VTG production. $E_2$ or $10^{-8}M$ 2, 4-D-primed VTG production was markedly inhibited by the addition of $10^{-6}M$ tamoxifen to the culture medium(P<0.01). Inhibition was not affected by combinational treatment with $10^{-6}M$ $E_2$ and $10^{-6}M$ 2, 4-D. These results from the current investigation suggest that 2, 4-D mimics $E_2$, but the mechanism of reaction in inducing the $E_2$ receptor are different in VTG production in oliver flounder hepatocytes.

We investigated the effects of sodium butyrate, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on the cell cycle progression in human monocytic leukemia U937 cells. Exposure of U937 cells to sodium butyrate resulted in growth inhibition, G1 arrest of the cell cycle and induction of apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner as measured by MTT assay and flow cytometry analysis. The increase in G1 arrest was associated with the down-regulation in cyclin D1, E, A, cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) 4 and 6 expression, and up-regulation of Cdk inhibitors such as p21 and p27. Sodium butyrate treatment also inhibited the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein (pRB) and p130, however, the levels of transcription factors E2F-1 and E2F-4 were not markedly modulated. Furthermore, the down-regulation of phosphorylation of pRB and p130 by this compound was associated with enhanced binding of pRB and E2F-1, as well as p130 and E2F-4, respectively. Overall, the present results demonstrate a combined mechanism involving the inhibition of pRBjp130 phosphorylation and induction of Cdk inhibitors as targets for sodium butyrate that may explain some of its anti-cancer effects in U937 cells.

Let R denote a commutative noetherian ring, and let 𝐱 := x1, …, xd be an R-regular sequence. Suppose that 𝖆 denotes a monomial ideal with respect to 𝐱. The first purpose of this article is to show that 𝖆 is irreducible if and only if 𝖆 is a generalized-parametric ideal. Next, it is shown that, for any integer n ≥ 1, (x1, …, xd)n = ⋂P(f), where the intersection (irredundant) is taken over all monomials f = xe11 ⋯ xedd such that deg(f) = n - 1 and P(f) := (xe1+11, ⋯, xed+1d). The second main result of this paper shows that if 𝖖 := (𝐱) is a prime ideal of R which is contained in the Jacobson radical of R and R is 𝖖-adically complete, then 𝖆 is a parameter ideal if and only if 𝖆 is a monomial irreducible ideal and Rad(𝖆) = 𝖖. In addition, if a is generated by monomials m1, …, mr, then Rad(𝖆), the radical of a, is also monomial and Rad(𝖆) = (ω1, …, ωr), where ωi = rad(mi) for all i = 1, …, r.
