Dielectric properties of $xBaTiO_3-(1-x)CoFe_2O_4$ composite materials have been investigated. Dielectric properties of $BaTiO_3$, $CoFe_2O_4$ and $0.5BaTiO_3-0.5CoFe_2O_4$ samples show frequency dependence, which is classified as relaxor behavior with different relaxing degree. The relaxor behaviors were described using the modified Curier-Weiss and Vogel-Fulcher laws. Among three above samples, the $BaTiO_3$ sample has highest relaxing degree. Photoluminescence spectral indicated defects, which might in turn control relaxing degree.

Defensins, cysteine-rich cationic polypeptides released from neutrophils, are known to have powerful antimicrobial properties. In this study, we sacrificed 30 rats to investigate the effects of ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 on detrusor muscle contractions in isolated rat bladder. From the experiments we found relaxing effects of ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 on the contractions induced by phenylephrine (PE) but not by bethanechol (BCh) in the detrusor smooth muscles. To determine the mechanisms of the effects of ${\alpha}$-defensin 1, the changes of effects on PE-induced contraction by ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 pretreatment were observed after pretreatment of Rho kinase inhibitor (Y-27632), protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor (Calphostin C), potent activator of PKC (PDBu; phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate), and NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitors (PDTC; pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate and sulfasalazine). The contractile responses of PE ($10^{-9}{\sim}10^{-4}$ M) were significantly decreased in some concentrations of ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 ($5{\times}10^{-9}$ and $5{\times}10^{-8}$ M). When strips were pretreated with NF-kB inhibitors (PDTC and sulfasalazine; $10^{-7}{\sim}10^{-6}$ M), the relaxing responses by ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 pretreatment were disappeared. The present study demonstrated that ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 has relaxing effects on the contractions of rat detrusor muscles, through NF-${\kappa}B$ pathway. Further studies in vivo are required to clarify whether ${\alpha}$-defensin 1 might be clinically related with bladder dysfunction by inflammation process.

In order to investigate the pharmacological action of combined preparation of crude drugs, 'Oyo-Tang' were studied. 'Oyo-Tang' consist of Glycyrrhizae Radix, Ephedrae Herba, Armenicae Semen, Platycodi Radix and Nepetae Herba. They have widely been prescribed in Oriental Medicine for controlling of cough, asthma, nasal abstraction, pharygeal pain and hoarseness. Experimental studies were implemented on analgesic, sedativc, anticonvulsive and ileum relaxing actions. The results of the studies were as follows; Significant anticonvulsive action was recognized by fraction IIII. Sedative and analgesic actions were noted by fraction I and III. Relaxing action was shown on the extracted ileum in mice, antagonistic actions were seen on $BaCl_2-induced$ contraction of the ileum of mice and Histamine-induced contraction of the ileum of guinea-pigs that the relaxing effect of the intestinal smooth muscle was recognized.

본 연구에서는 콜린성 기전에 반응하여 분비되는 내피 의존성 이완물질(endothelium-derived relaxing factor, EDRF)나 nitric oxide(NO)가 마취 흰쥐의 뇌혈류 자가조절기전에 관여할 가능성을 관찰하였다. Acetylcholine($10^{-9}-10^{-6}M$)을 포함한 mock 뇌척수액(CSF)을 관류시 뇌연막 동맥은 농도에 의존하여 이완반응 나타내었고(평균; $19.3{\pm}1.7{\mu}m$, n=36), 이러한 이완반응은 $N{\omega}$-nitro-L-arginine(L-NNA, $10^{-5}M$)에 의해서 억제되었을 뿐 아니라 methylene blue($10^{-6}M$)나 oxyhemoglobin($10^{-6}M$)에 의하여도 억제되었다. 한편 이러한 acethlcholine에 의한 뇌연막동맥의 이완반응을 매게하는 무스카린 수용체는 무스카린 수용체 길항제의 봉쇄효과를 관찰한 실험에서 $M_1$과 $M_3$ 아형으로 생각되었다. L-Arginine을 함유한 mock CSF로 관류시 일어나는 일시적인 혈관이완반응은 NY 83583 ($10^{-5}M$)에 강력히 억제되었으나 L-NNA ($10^{-5}M$)에 의해서는 억제되지 아니하였다. 한편 acetylcholine과 L-arginine에 의한 혈관이완반응은 ATP-sensitive $K^+$ 통로 봉쇄제인 glibenclamide에 의해 유의하게 봉쇄되었다. 나아가 뇌연막동맥의 직경 변화를 동맥압의 변화에 대하여 검정한 결과 혈관이완과 혈관수축의 희귀 직선의 경사도는 $10^{-5}M$ L-NNA의 전처치에 의하여 영향을 받지 아니하였으나, $3{\times}10^{-6}M$ glibenclamide에 의해 유의하게 감소되었다. 이러한 결과로 보아 혈압하강에 대해 쥐의 뇌연막동맥에 나타나는 혈관이완반응은 EDRF(NO)에 의해 매개되지 않는다고 사료된다.

Experimental studies were made with Melilotus officinalis extract which was extracted from flowers and leaves of Melilotus officinalis Dsr. (Leguminosae). In this paper, acute toxicity, analgesic action, prolongation of hypnosis time by induced pentobarbital-Nain mice, antiinflammatory effect in rats and effects on isolated intestines of mice and rats were studied, The result was as follows; 1. Very low toxicity in mice. 2. Analgesic action was recognized markedly in mice. 3. Prolongation of hypnosis time induced by pentobarbital-Na in mice was shown. 4. Relaxing action was shown on the isolated ileum in mice and antagonistic action was seen on $BaCl_2-induced$ contraction of the ileum that the relaxing effect of the intestinal smooth muscle was recognized. 5.Antiinflammatory effect was shown markedly in mice. 6.Hypotensive and vaso-dilating actions due to the vascular smooth muscle relaxation were noted in rabbits.

In this paper, a new numerical method of finding the roots of a nonlinear system is proposed, which extends the conventional fixed point iterative method by relaxing the constraints on it. The proposed method determines the real valued roots and expands the convergence region by relaxing the constraints on the conventional fixed point iterative method, which transforms the diverging root searching iterations into the converging iterations by employing the metric induced by the geometrical characteristics of a polynomial. A metric is set to measure the distance between a point of a real-valued function and its corresponding image point of its inverse function. The proposed scheme provides the convenience in finding not only the real roots of polynomials but also the roots of the nonlinear systems in the various application areas of science and engineering.

Objectives : Riding stance has been basic traning of chinese martial arts and Gi-gong. The aim of this study is to observe history, methods, effect of riding stance. Methods : Compare riding stances of each family of martial arts and Gi-gong. Result : 1. Since Wang, the father of Daesung-Gwon had created Chamjang-gong, riding stance becomes a independent foam of Gi-gong 2. The essential method of riding stance is Relaxing the upper body, straightening the spine and putting stress on inner side of the legs. 3. Putting stress on inner legs help relaxing upper body. 4. Riding stance is very similar to horse-back riding. 5. Relaxation must be done for effective riding stance training. Conclusions : Riding stance is necessary for stressful modern people.

The use of relaxing cosmetic products is more and more widespread on the self care market, since stress is considered as a major cause of discomfort in modem life. Cortisol, the stress hormone, helps the human body to regulate itself by acting on carbonhydrate, proteins and fat metabolisms. IgA are immune molecules involved in the stress response of the human body. The less the human body is stressed, the more the salivary IgA rate increases. Salivary cortisol and IgA have the advantage of being easily assessed with non invasive methods. Finally, conductance is the measurement of the modification in the electrical resistance of the skin. By this means, the measurement of the conductance enable the assessment of somebody's stress.(omitted)
