암을 포함한 다양한 인간의 질병 발생이 circadian clock 유전자의 변형된 발현 양상과 깊은 연관관계를 나타내고 있다. 세포 주기와 세포 성장은 circadian rhythm과 연결되어 있으며, 이를 조절하는 clock 유전자의 비정상적인 발현은 결국 종양 발생과 암의 발달을 유발하게 된다. Circadian clock에 관한 분자적 기전은 다수의 clock activator와 clock repressor의 통합적인 조절에 따른 전사 및 번역이 포함된 음성피드백 고리로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 circadian rhythm의 자동조절 기전에 의해 전체 유전체의 약 10~15%가 전사 수준에서 영향받는 것으로 나타났다. 많은 clock 유전자들 중, Period 1 (Per1)과 Period 2 (Per2)는 clock repressor 유전자로 정상적인 생리적 리듬을 조절하는 것에 기여한다. PER1과 PER2는 cyclin, CDK, CKI를 포함하는 세포 주기 조절자의 발현에 관여함이 밝혀졌으며, 다양한 암에서 PER1과 PER2의 발현 감소가 보고되었다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 PER1과 PER2의 circadian rhythm에서의 분자적 기능과 종양 발생과 관련된 PER1과 PER2의 하위 표적인자에 대해 살펴보고, 암 치료를 위한 새로운 치료 표적과 암의 예후를 예측하기 위한 분자 지표로써의 PER1과 PER2의 가능성에 대해 서술하고자 한다.

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs)는 다양한 세포기능을 조절하는 중요한 사이토카인 중 하나이다. 최근 BMP와 일주기 유전자들이 연관되어 있다는 연구결과들이 보고되고 있지만 조골세포에서 일주기 유전자인 Per1의 역할은 아직 명확하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 조골세포 분화에서 Per1의 역할을 조사하였다. MC3T3-E1 세포에서 BMP2 처리에 의해 Per1 mRNA 발현과 luciferase 활성이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 Per1 과발현 실험을 통해서 Per1 유전자가 Runx2, ALP, OC의 발현을 증가시켰으며 ascorbic acid와 ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate에 의한 ALP 염색과 석회화가 Per1 과발현에 의해 더욱 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과는 일주기 리듬을 조절하는 Per1 유전자가 조골세포의 분화를 촉진하는 인자로 작용함을 시사한다.

Previous reports have demonstrated that genetic mechanisms greatly mediate responses to drugs of abuse, including methamphetamine (METH). The circadian gene Period 2 (Per2) has been previously associated with differential responses towards METH in mice. While the behavioral consequences of eliminating Per2 have been illustrated previously, Per2 overexpression has not yet been comprehensively described; although, Per2-overexpressing (Per2 OE) mice previously showed reduced sensitivity towards METH-induced addiction-like behaviors. To further elucidate this distinct behavior of Per2 OE mice to METH, we identified possible candidate biomarkers by determining striatal differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in both drug-naïve and METH-treated Per2 OE mice relative to wild-type (WT), through RNA sequencing. Of the several DEGs in drug naïve Per2 OE mice, we identified six genes that were altered after repeated METH treatment in WT mice, but not in Per2 OE mice. These results, validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, could suggest that the identified DEGs might underlie the previously reported weaker METH-induced responses of Per2 OE mice compared to WT. Gene network analysis also revealed that Asic3, Hba-a1, and Rnf17 are possibly associated with Per2 through physical interactions and predicted correlations, and might potentially participate in addiction. Inhibiting the functional protein of Asic3 prior to METH administration resulted in the partial reduction of METH-induced conditioned place preference in WT mice, supporting a possible involvement of Asic3 in METH-induced reward. Although encouraging further investigations, our findings suggest that these DEGs, including Asic3, may play significant roles in the lower sensitivity of Per2 OE mice to METH.

HyPer is the genetically encoded biosensor of intracellular hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$), the most stable of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by living cells. HyPer has a high sensitivity and specificity for detecting intracellular $H_2O_2$ by confocal laser microscopy. However, it was not known whether high speed ratiometric imaging of $H_2O_2$ by HyPer is possible. We thus investigated the sensitivity of HyPer in detecting changes to the intracellular $H_2O_2$ levels in HEK293 and PC12 cells using a microfluorometer imaging system. Increase in the HyPer ratio were clearly evident on stimulations of more than $100{\mu}M$ $H_2O_2$ and fast changes in the HyPer ratio were observed on ratiometric fluorescent images after $H_2O_2$ treatment. These results suggest that HyPer is a potent biosensor of the fast temporal production of intracellular $H_2O_2$.

Drug addiction influences most communities directly or indirectly. Increasing studies have reported the relationship between circadian-related genes and drug addiction. Per2 disrupted mice exhibited more vulnerable behavioral responses against some drugs including methamphetamine (METH). However, its roles and mechanisms are still not clear. Transcriptional profiling analysis in Per2 knockout (KO) mice may provide a valuable tool to identify potential genetic involvement and pathways in enhanced behavioral responses against drugs. To explore the potential genetic involvement, we examined common differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the striatum of drug naïve Per2 KO/wild-type (WT) mice, and before/after METH treatment in Per2 KO mice, but not in WT mice. We selected 9 common DEGs (Ncald, Cpa6, Pklr, Ttc29, Cbr2, Egr2, Prg4, Lcn2, and Camsap2) based on literature research. Among the common DEGs, Ncald, Cpa6, Pklr, and Ttc29 showed higher expression levels in drug naïve Per2 KO mice than in WT mice, while they were downregulated in Per2 KO mice after METH treatment. In contrast, Cbr2, Egr2, Prg4, Lcn2, and Camsap2 exhibited lower expression levels in drug naïve Per2 KO mice than in WT mice, while they were upregulated after METH treatment in Per2 KO mice. qRT-PCR analyses validated the expression patterns of 9 target genes before/after METH treatment in Per2 KO and WT mice. Although further research is required to deeply understand the relationship and roles of the 9 target genes in drug addiction, the findings from the present study indicate that the target genes might play important roles in drug addiction.

The molecular components that generate and maintain circadian rhythms of physiology and behavior in mammals are present both in the brain (suprachiasmatic nucleus; SCN) and in peripheral tissues. Examination of mice with targeted disruptions of either mPer1 or mPer2 has shown that these two genes have key roles in the SCN circadian clock. Here we show that loss of the clock gene mPer2 affects forced locomotor performance in mice without altering muscle contractility. A proteomic analysis revealed that the anterior tibialis muscles of the mPer2 knockout mice had higher levels of glycolytic enzymes such as triose phosphate isomerase and enolase than those of either the wild type or mPer1 knockout mice. In addition, the level of expression of HSP90 in the mPer2 mutant mice was also significantly higher than in wildtype mice. These results suggest that the reduced locomotor endurance of the mPer2 knockout mice reflects a greater dependence on anaerobic metabolism under stress conditions, and that the two canonical clock genes, mPer1 and mPer2, play distinct roles in the physiology of skeletal muscle.

This study is to set up a model of minimum and optimum standards for college and university library building areas in Korea. The results of this study are summarized as follows: 1. minimum standards(proposal) At first, Areas needed by factors of space component are as follows: User space --- 0.45 $m^{2}$ per student. Collection space --- 0.0107 $m^{2}$ per volume Staff space --- 10.1 $m^{2}$ per person Space attached to user, collection and staff space --- 5% of the sum of user, collection and staff areas(0.041 $m^{2}$ per student). Nonassignable space --- 25% of the sum of user, collection and staff areas (0.21 $m^{2}$ per student). Next, the formula to calculate the total area of the college and university library building is as follows: N = 0.45T $m^{2}$(a) + 0.0107V $m^{2}$(b) + 10.1S $m^{2}$(c) + 0.05(a+b+c) $m^{2}$, NS = 0.25N $m^{2}$. 2.

Nonassignable space --- 25% of the sum of user, collection and staff areas(0.38 $m^{2}$ per student). Next, the formula to calculate the total area of the college and university library building is as follows: N = 0.64T $m^{2}$(a) + 0.01V $m^{2}$(b) + 9.7S $m^{2}$(c) + 0.05(a+b+c) $m^{2}$, NS = 0.25N $m^{2}$.
