Our previous proteomic study demonstrated that oxidative stress and antioxidant delphinidin regulated the cellular level of $p27^{kip1}$ (referred to as p27) as well as some heat shock proteins in human colon cancer HT 29 cells. Current study was conducted to validate and confirm the regulation of these proteins using both in vitro and in vivo systems. The level of p27 was decreased by hydrogen peroxide in a dose-dependent manner in human colon carcinoma HCT 116 (p53-positive) cells while it was increased upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide in HT 29 (p53-negative) cells. However, high concentration of hydrogen peroxide (100 ${\mu}M)$ downregulated p27 in both cell lines, but delphindin, one of antioxidative anthocyanins, enhanced the level of p27 suppressed by 100 ${\mu}M$ hydrogen peroxide. ICR mice were injected with varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, delphinidin and both. Western blot analysis for the mouse large intestinal tissue showed that the expression of p27 was upregulated by 25 mg/kg BW hydrogen peroxide. To investigate the association of p27 regulation with hypoxia-inducible factor 1-beta (HIF-$1{\beta}$), the level of p27 was analyzed in wild-type mouse hepatoma hepa1c1c7 and Aryl Hydrocarbon Nuclear Translocator (arnt, HIF-$1{\beta}$)-defective mutant BPRc1 cells in the absence and presence of hydrogen peroxide and delphinidin. While the level of p27 was responsive to hydrogen peroxide and delphinidin, it remained unchanged in BPRc1, suggesting that the regulation of p27 requires functional HIF-$1{\beta}$. We also found that hydrogen peroxide and delphinidin affected PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway which is one of upstream regulators of HIFs. In conclusion, hydrogen peroxide and antioxidant delphinidin seem to regulate intracellular level of p27 through regulating HIF-1 level which is, in turn, governed by its upstream regulators comprising of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. The results should also encourage further study for the potential of p27 as a biomarker for intracellular oxidative or antioxidant status.

This study was designed to investigate the protective effect of Bojungbangam-tang Ethanol Extracts (EBJT) on cisplatin and hydrogen peroxide-induced cytotoxicity of human endothelial cell line ECV304 cells. After cells were treated with cisplatin and hydrogen peroxide, MTT assay was performed for cell viability test. To explore the mechanism of cytotoxicity, we used the several measures of apoptosis to determine whether this processes was involved in cisplatin and hydrogen peroxide-induced cell damage in ECV304 cells. Also, cells were treated with EBJT and then, followed by the addition of cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide. Cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide decreased the viability of ECV304 cells in a dose-dependent manner. ECV304 cells treated cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide were revealed as apoptosis characterized by nuclear staining. EBJT protected ECV304 cells from cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide-induced nuclear fragmentation and chromatin condensation. Also, EBJT inhibited the cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide-treated ECV304 cells. According to above results, EBJT may protect ECV304 cells from the apotosis induced by cisplatin or hydrogen peroxide.

This studies were carried out in summer season to increase high temperature tolerance using hydrogen peroxide treatments on cucumber in greenhouse. The water stress of cucumber in greenhouse by the hydrogen peroxide treatments showed as control>250 mM>500 mM treatments in order. The photosynthesis rate of cucumber at $30^{\circ}C$ did not show difference with each hydrogen peroxide treatment in temperature controlled greenhouse. However, the photosynthesis rate of cucumber in the control and hydrogen peroxide treatments at $40^{\circ}C$ was significantly different. The photosynthesis rate of cucumber in combined treatment with 1,000 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}\;CO_2$ supply and hydrogen peroxide was also higher than control, however, there was no different of photosynthesis in 250 mM and 500 mM treatment. The value of $F_v/F_m$ and $F_m/F_o$ of chlorophyll fluorescent in 500 mM hydrogen peroxide treatment at $40^{\circ}C$ was highest. Also the activity of POD, the antioxidant enzyme, was higher with high hydrogen peroxide concentration than the other treatments. The high temperature limits for growth were $43^{\circ}C$ in the control, $44^{\circ}C$ in the 250 mM and $46^{\circ}C$ in the 500 mM according to analyze chlorophyll fluorescent $F_o$. The high temperature tolerance in cucumber increased approximately $3^{\circ}C$ by the hydrogen peroxide treatments under this experiment conditions.

로켓추진기관에 있어 과산화수소는 단일추진제와 이종추진제의 산화제로 사용되어 왔다. 과산화수소는 추력기용으로 사용된 최초의 단일추진제였으나, 후에 보다 비추력이 높고 저장성이 좋은 하이드라진으로 대체되었고, 터보펌프 구동용으로는 여전히 사용되어지고 있다. 이종추진제의 산화제로서는 1970년대까지 사용되었다. 1990년대에 들어서 저비용, 친환경적인 개발이 중요하게 대두되면서 과산화수소는 다시 개발자들의 관심의 대상이 되었다. 과산화수소의 저장성능이 과거에 비해 크게 개선되었으며, 케로신/과산화수소를 추진제 조합으로 사용하는 경우 케로신/액체산소를 사용하는 경우에 비하여 가속성능은 다소 떨어지나, 높은 추진제밀도와 O/F 비로 인하여 유사한 가속성능을 얻을 수 있으며, 연소생성물 역시 더욱 청정하였다.

Sex hormones not only regulate external sexual characteristics but several internal biochemical processes. It is well accepted that life-span of female is longer than that of male. Life-span is closely related with aging process in which free radicals are known to be involved. We investigated the effect of testosterone on free radical generating systems and lipid peroxidation based on the sexual difference. Lipid peroxide levels of male and female mouse were increased proportionately with age, especially in male mouse. Increase in enzyme activity of aldehyde oxidase with age was observed in male mouse, while no siginificant change in enzyme activity was found in female mouse. Enzyme activity of xanthine oxidase also showed similar results. It, however, was not significant statistically. Lipid peroxide level and xanthine oxidase type conversion ratio of male and female mouse liver homogenate incubated at $37^{\circ}C$, increased remarkably in proportion to incubation time, especially in male mouse. Lipid peroxide level and aldehyde oxidase activity were measured in normal male mouse, castrated mouse and testosterone treated-castrated mouse. Castrated mouse group showed decrease in lipid peroxide level and aldehyde oxidase activity compared with normal group. Treatment of castrated mouse with testosterone, however turned the level of lipid peroxide and aldehyde oxidase activity back to normal. From the above results, it might be concluded that testosteron could increase the activities of free radical generating enzymes which would result in the formation of lipid peroxide, consequently leading to aging.

This study was carried out for the purpose of developing environmental friendly and effective chemical treatment method for the disease control in the land-based flounder culture which is industrially popular in the coastal area in Korean. The chemicals such as flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus and their effects on the fish based on the 24hr-$LC_{50}$, $LT_{50}$, 24-hour survival rate at each experimental concentration, recovery rate of the survived individual from chemical treatment, and the histological change of the gill after chemical treatment were investigated and analyzed. The 24hr-$LC_{50}$ was 321.65 ppm for formalin, 419.62 ppm for chlorine dioxide, and 395.97 ppm for hydrogen peroxide, respectively. The $LT_{50}$ was 15-hour for formalin, 17-hour for chlorine dioxide and 24-hour for hydrogen peroxide, respectively. Fishes exposed to the experimental concentration of three chemicals were quickly susceptible in the order of formalin, chlorine dioxide and hydrogen peroxide with a trend of shorter half lethal time at higher concentration. Initial survival rate of the flounder soon after chemical treatment was the highest in the hydrogen peroxide treatment compared with the other two chemicals. The histological damage by the hydrogen peroxide treatment was negligible compared with the other two chemicals. Accordingly, hydrogen peroxide treatment showed the lowest toxicity compared with the other two chemicals to the experimental fishes.

본 연구는 파프리카 재배농가에서 과산화수소를 이용하여 여름철 고온극복에 관한 연구수행 결과이다. 고온기 과산화수소(순도 30%)를 0.3%로 희석하여 5일주기로 살포한 결과 파프리카의 엽이 두꺼워지고 기공저항 속도가 낮아 순조로운 증산작용이 가능하였다. 주당 착과수는 무처리에 비하여 약 2개가 많았다. 또한 과산화수소처리에 따라 엽내 과산화수소량이 증가하는 경향이었고, 항산화효소인 catalase와 peroxidase의 활력이 증가되었다. 여름철 파프리카 재배에서 가장 많이 발생하는 흰가루병 방제를 위하여 농약사용이 불가피한 상황이지만 생산물의 농약잔류 등으로 사용에 많은 제한이 있는 현 상황에서 과산화수소의 주기적인 이용으로 흰가루병을 방제할 수 있고 생산량도 높일 수 있어 금후 파프리카 재배농가의 많은 이용이 기대 된다.

과산화수소를 이용한 펜톤(Fenton)산화법은 수처리 및 토양 복원분야에서 활용되는 친환경 산화방법이다. 이 방법으로 오염물질을 제거할 때, 오염물의 농도에 따라 과산화수소의 농도를 적절하게 조절하는 것이 상당히 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 HRP (horseradish peroxidase) 효소를 이용한 전기화학적 바이오센서를 제조하고 효소의 활성과 과산화수소의 검출 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. SPCE (Screen Printed Carbon Electrode)의 작업 전극 표면에 키토산과 AuNP를 이용하여 HRP를 전착하였다. 이 후, 전위주사법(CV)과 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법(EIS)을 이용하여 효소의 고정화를 확인하였다. 또한 시간대전류법(CA)과 UV 분광법으로부터 HRP 효소의 활성을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 제조한 바이오센서를 PBS 전해질에 담그고 과산화수소를 적정하여 CA 분석으로부터 전극에서 발생하는 전류를 측정하였다. 발생 전류는 과산화수소의 농도에 대하여 선형적으로 증가하였으며, 전류로부터 과산화수소의 농도를 예측할 수 있는 검정곡선을 도출하였다.
