The present study was aimed to investigate whether ethanol-extract of Allium wageki has an ameliorative effect on the renal function in high fructose-diet induced hypertensive rats .. The urine osmolality (Uosmol) was decreased in rats with high fructose-diet (60%) during the whole experiment period without change of the urine volume (UV). The urinary excretion of sodium (UNaV) and chloride (UCIV) were decrease significantly in rats with fructose-induced hypertensive rats, whereas urinary excretion of potassium (UKV) was Increased. The creatinine clearance (Ccr) and solute-free water reabsorption were also decreased by treatment of fructose-rich diet. Among these renal functional parameters, Ccr was partially restored by the administration of ethanol-extract of Allium wageki. The Uosmol was also partially restored by the administration ethanol-extract of Allium wageki at the end of the experimental period. Taken together, ethanol-extract of Allium wageki has the ameliorative effect on glomerular filtration rate in rats with high fructose-diet induced hypertension.

In order to investigate the effect of tempring treatment on the mechanical properties of ausformed martensite in Fe-30%Ni-0.35%C alloy, the hardness, yield strength and elongation were examined by tensile test. 1. The strength of deformed austenite in Fe-30%Ni-0.35%C alloy was increased due to the work hardening induced from the dislocation density increased during deformation. The strength of ausformed martensite was increased because of defects inherited from deformed austenite by martensitic transformation. 2. The ductility of ausformed martensite was shown a nearly constant values independent of deformation degrees because of the interaction of multiple factors such as increased retained austenite, formation of void and decrement of twin in ausformed martensite. 3. The strength of ausformed martensite by tempering treatment was shown a little decrement up to $340^{\circ}C$, especially showed remarkable softening resistance in higher deformation degrees. 4. Virgin martensite and ausformed martensite were shown a maximum yield strength by clustering in tempering at $100^{\circ}C$ and above $100^{\circ}C$, yield strength was very small decreased due to the decrement of solute carbon by the destruction of clustering. 5. The decomposition of retained austenite was not shown up to $450^{\circ}C$ in ausformed martensite with tempering treatment, and the matrix was rapidly softening because of the decomposition of martensite and the formation of reversed austenite with tempering above $400^{\circ}C$.

Glioblastoma is the most frequent and most aggressive brain tumor in adults. Solute carrier family 8 member 2 (SLC8A2) is only expressed in normal brain, but not present in other human normal tissues or in gliomas. Therefore, we hypothesized that SLC8A2 might be a glioma tumor suppressor gene and detected the role of SLC8A2 in glioblastoma and explored the underlying molecular mechanism. The glioblastoma U87MG cells stably transfected with the lentivirus plasmid containg SLC8A2 (U87MG-SLC8A2) and negative control (U87MG-NC) were constructed. In the present study, we found that the tumorigenicity of U87MG in nude mice was totally inhibited by SLC8A2. Overexpression of SLC8A2 had no effect on cell proliferation or cell cycle, but impaired the invasion and migration of U87MG cells, most likely through inactivating the extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK)1/2 signaling pathway, inhibiting the nuclear translocation and DNA binding activity of nuclear factor kappa B ($NF-{\kappa}B$), reducing the level of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)-its receptor (uPAR) system (ERK1/2-$NF-{\kappa}B$-MMPs/uPA-uPAR), and altering the protein levels of epithelial to mesenchymal transitions (EMT)-associated proteins E-cardherin, vimentin and Snail. In addition, SLC8A2 inhibited the angiogenesis of U87MG cells, probably through combined inhibition of endothelium-dependent and endothelium-nondependent angiogenesis (vascular mimicry pattern). Totally, SLC8A2 serves as a tumor suppressor gene and inhibits invasion, angiogenesis and growth of glioblastoma.

This study was carried out to develop the efficient freeze concentration process of milk through controlling the recrystallisation phenomena of ice. Freeze-concentration was progressed with multi-stage freeze concentrator and there was artificial temperature control to induce recrystallisation phenomena. In each stage of freeze concentration process, the regular recrystallisation time was fixed as 1, 2, 4 and 8 hr to compare the solute increment, yield, brix and ice-crystal size among experimental conditions. Higher concentration as total solids was observed due to the elapse of recrystallisation time, and the maximum total solids in final products: 32.67% was obtained at the ripening time of 8 hr in two-stage process. This result was excessively high concentration comparing to the existing researches and presented the possibilities of milk freeze concentration in the dairy industry, The results of brix and ice-crystal size showed the direct correlation with the recrystallisation time that meant the increased processing time showed the increment of brix and ice-crystal size. Obtained results were numerically modelled to predict the progress of concentration in the industrial process and all of them had fairly high R2 of determination. Therefore, we regarded that these numerical models could be utilized for the development of efficient technology in industrial freeze concentration process.

기능성 헤테로 고리 화합물의 구조 이성질체를 정상 및 역상 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 분리하고, 이들 분리를 위한 최적 조건을 알코올 변형체(modifier)를 포함한 삼성분 이동상(ternary solvent system)을 이용하여 조사했다. 삼성분 이동상의 경우 알코올 변형체가 컬럼의 활성 표면에 우선적으로 상호작용하여 비활성화(deactivation)시킴으로써 용질의 머무름을 감소시키고 꼬리 끌림(tailing)을 억제하여 분리선택성이 좋아지는 것으로 보인다. 구조 이성질체 분리의 경우 정상 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용할 경우가 분리 선택성이 더 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 헤테로 고리 화합물들의 머무름 거동은 역상 액체 크로마토그래피의 경우는 시료와 정지상과의 소수성 상호작용등으로 설명할 수 있었고, 정상 액체 크로마토그래피의 경우는 시료 분자와 충진제의 흡착표면과의 흡착력으로 설명할 수 있었다.

Glucose is a major source of metabolic fuel and lipid and protein syntheses. Transport of glucose into the cell is regulated by an action of glucose transport.associated transporters, especially solute carriers 2A (Slc2a, protein symbol GLUT). The present study was focused on examination of mRNA expression of various Slc2a isoforms in the epididymis during postnatal development. Total RNAs isolated from different epididymal segments (caput, corpus, and caudal epididymis) were utilized for real-time polymerase chain reaction analyses. Results showed that Slc2a 1, 3, 4, 5, and 8 were expressed in the entire epididymal regions. In addition, the abundance of these Slc2a isoforms' transcripts was different within each epididymal regions. Moreover, the present study showed differential expression of these Slc2a isoforms among different epididymal segments according to postnatal ages. The current study suggests that glucose transport in the epididymis via various Slc2a isoforms would be necessary for maintenance of the epididymal functions.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reduction effect of non point source (NPS) pollution in Haean highland agricultural catchment ($62.8km^2$) for 13 BMP scenarios under RCP (Representative Concentration Pathway) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios. Under the present climate condition, the BMP (best management practices) reduction efficiency of SS (suspended solid), T-N (total nitrogen), and T-P (total phosphorus) showed +25.7%, +4.2%, and +16.1% for VFS (vegetative filter strip), +0.1%, +15.6%, and +5.7% for FC (fertilizer control), and +6.3%, -2.9%, and +3.9% for RSM (rice straw mulching) respectively. In general, effective was the best for SS and T-P reductions, and the FC was the best for T-N reduction. The negative effect of T-N on RSM was induced by increase in infiltration and solute transport to baseflow. Under the future climate change scenarios, the SS, T-N, and T-P reduction efficiency showed the range of +1.9~+11.6%, -1.9~+0.2%, and +5.3~+11.9% respectively. The 3 BMPs (VFS, FC, and RSM) application in the future showed negative and little differences (-0.5~+1.6%) for SS and T-N reduction efficiencies while T-P reduction efficiency showed +0.3~+7.6% comparing with the baseline period. To achieve an increase in the reduction efficiency of future SS and T-N by +2~+10%, the combined application of more than two BMPs is necessary.

Penicillium fellutanum produces a phosphorylated, choline-containing extracellular peptido-polysaccharide, peptidophosphogalactomannan (pPxGM) (8). The $\^$13/C-methyl labeled pPxGM ([methyl-$\^$13/C]pPxGM) was prepared from the cultures supplemented with L-[methyl-$\^$13/C]methionine or [2-$\^$13/C]glycine and was used as a probe to monitor the fate of phosphocholine in this polymer. Addition of purified [methyl-$\^$l3/C]pPxGM to growing cultures in low phosphate medium resulted in the disappearance of [methyl-$\^$13/C]phosphocholine and -N,N'-dimethyl-phosphoethanolamine from the added [methyl-$\^$13/C]pPxGM. Two $\^$l3/C-methyl-enriched cytoplasmic solutes, choline-O-sulfate and glycine betaine, were found in mycelial extracts, suggesting that phosphocholine-containing extracellular pPxGM of P.fellutanum is a precursor of intracellular choline-O-sulfate and glycine betaine and thus of phosphatydilcholine (l0). $\^$13/C-Methyl-labeled cells grown in 3 M NaCl-containing medium showed 2.6- and 22-fold more accumulation of $\^$13/C-methyl labeled choline-O-sulfate and glycine betaine, respectively, originated from the extracellular [$\^$13/C-methyl]pPxGM than those grown without added NaCl. The results suggest that, in addition to glycerol and erythritol, glycine betaine and choline-O-sulfate and thus choline are also osmoprotectants and hence that pPxGM is involved in osmotolerance of this fungus (11). Taken collectively, the $\^$l3/C- and $\^$31/P-NMR analyses of cytosolic solute pools and structural modulation of extracellular pPxGM corresponding to environmental stimuli in P. fellutanum, provided evidence that pPxGM is involved in cellular choline metabolism, osmotolerance, and recycling of metabolites.
