  • Industrial development has increase consumption of crude oil and environmental pollution. A large number of microbial lipolytic enzymes have been identified and characterized to date. To development for a new lipase with catalytic activity in degradation of crude oil as a microbial enzyme, Acinetobactor sp. B2 was isolated from soil samples that were contaminated with oil in Daejon area. Acinetobactor sp. B2 showed high resistance up to 10 mg/mL unit to heavy metals such as Ba, Li, Al, Cr, Pb and Mn. Optimal growth condition of Acinetobactor sp. B2 was confirmed $30^{\circ}C$. Lipase was purified from the supernatant by Acinetobactor sp. B2. Its molecular mass was determined to the 60 kDa and the optimal activity was shown at $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 10. The activation energies for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl palmitate were determined to be 2.7 kcal/mol in the temperature range 4 to $37^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was unstable at temperatures higher than $60^{\circ}C$. The Michaelis constant $(K_{m})\;and\;V_{max}$ for p-nitrophenyl palmitate were $21.8{\mu}M\;and\;270.3{\mu}M\;min^{-1}mg\;of\;protein^{-1}$, respectively. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by $Cd{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Hg^{2+},\;EDTA$, 2-Mercaptoethalol. From these results, we suggested that lipase purified from Acinetobactor sp. B2 should be able to be used as a new enzyme for degradation of crude oil, one of the environmental contaminants.

  • 목 적 : RDS 발생과 BPD로의 이행을 예측 할 수 있고, 스테로이드 치료에 새로운 지표로서 사용 될 수 있는 SP-A1의 유전자 대립형질의 한국분포 및 빈도를 밝히고 새로운 종류의 유전자 대립형질을 발견하기 위하여 본 연구를 하였다. 방 법: 2002년 1월부터 2002년 4월까지 순천향대학교 천안병원, 경희대학교병원 신생아실에 입원한 정상 신생아 100명을 대상으로 하여, SP-A1 유전자의 대립 형질을 위해 시발체(primer) 765/787, 767/768, 788/21를 이용하여 증폭 시킨 후 19, 50, 62, 133, 219 위치의 nucleotide를 알아보기 위하여 각 위치에 맞는 제한 효소(restriction enzyme)를 이용하여 (PCR-cRFLP-based methodology) 자른 후 전기 영동 하여 염기서열의 차이를 알아냈다. 결 과 : 아미노산 염기 서열의 차이에 의하여, 6A, $6A^2$, $6A^3$, $6A^4$, $6A^8$, $6A^9$, $6A^{10}$, $6A^{11}$, $6A^{12}$, $6A^{13}$, $6A^{14}$, $6A^{15}$, $6A^{16}$, $6A^{17}$, $6A^{18}$, $6A^{20}$ 등의 16개의 대립형질이 발견되었으며, SP-A1 중 $6A^3$ 45%, $6A^2$ 21%의 분포를 보였고, $6A^4$, $6A^8$, $6A^{14}$도 1% 이상의 분포를 보였다. 이외에도 6A, $6A^9$, $6A^{10}$, $6A^{11}$, $6A^{12}$, $6A^{13}$, $6A^{15}$, $6A^{16}$, $6A^{17}$, $6A^{18}$, $6A^{20}$의 대립형질이 6%의 분포를 보였으며, SP-A1의 Genotype은 $6A^26A^3$, $6A^36A^4$, $6A^36A^3$, $6A^26A^4$ 등이 88% 이상의 빈도를 보였다. 결 론 : RDS에 대해 보호체(protector)로 작용하는 $6A^3$의 빈도가 많은 것으로 보아 실질적으로도 우리나라에서 RDS의 발생률이 적을 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 우리나라에 많은 빈도를 보이는 $6A^3$는 다른 대립형질에 비해 스테로이드를 사용 할 때 유전자 발현에 많은 억제를 보여 숙주 반응에 중요하게 작용하는 SP-A의 혈청 내 농도가 적을 것으로 추측되어, 감염에 노출 될 위험이 많으므로 우리나라에서는 스테로이드 치료에 있어서 많은 연구가 있어야겠다.

  • 5-Lipoxygenase (5-LO) plays a pivotal role in the progression of atherosclerosis. Therefore, this study investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in 5-LO expression on monocytes induced by LPS. Stimulation of THP-1 monocytes with LPS ($0{\sim}3{\mu}g/ml$) increased 5-LO promoter activity and 5-LO protein expression in a concentration-dependent manner. LPS-induced 5-LO expression was blocked by pharmacological inhibition of the Akt pathway, but not by inhibitors of MAPK pathways including the ERK, JNK, and p38 MAPK pathways. In line with these results, LPS increased the phosphorylation of Akt, suggesting a role for the Akt pathway in LPS-induced 5-LO expression. In a promoter activity assay conducted to identify transcription factors, both Sp1 and NF-${\kappa}B$ were found to play central roles in 5-LO expression in LPS-treated monocytes. The LPS-enhanced activities of Sp1 and NF-${\kappa}B$ were attenuated by an Akt inhibitor. Moreover, the LPS-enhanced phosphorylation of Akt was significantly attenuated in cells pretreated with an anti-TLR4 antibody. Taken together, 5-LO expression in LPS-stimulated monocytes is regulated at the transcriptional level via TLR4/Akt-mediated activations of Sp1 and NF-${\kappa}B$ pathways in monocytes.

  • Many mouse models of rheumatoid arthritis have been identified, but only a limited number are present for axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA). Collagen Ab-induced arthritis (CAIA) is one of the most widely used mouse models of arthritis, and it is complement-dependent. We found that mice developing CAIA also developed spinal lesions similar to those found in AxSpA. To induce CAIA, mice were injected intraperitoneally at day 0 with anti-collagen Abs, followed by LPS injection at day 3. CAIA mice demonstrated a significant kyphosis through the spine, as well as hypertrophic cartilage and osseous damage of the intravertebral joints. Immunohistochemical staining of the kyphotic area revealed increased complement C3 deposition and macrophage infiltration, with localization to the intravertebral joint margins. Near Infrared (NIR) in vivo imaging showed that anti-collagen Abs conjugated with IRDye® 800CW not only localized to cartilage surface in the joints but also to the spine in arthritic mice. We report here a novel preclinical mouse model in which, associated with the induction of CAIA, mice also exhibited salient features of AxSpA; this new experimental model of AxSpA may allow investigators to shed light on the local causal mechanisms of AxSpA bone and soft tissue changes as well as treatment.

  • A gene coding for ${\beta}-xylosidase$ in alkalophilic Bacillus sp. YC-335 isolated from soil was cloned into Escherichia coli HB101 using plasmid pBR322. The recombinant plasmid pYK40 was isolated, and the cloned HindIII fragment was 15 kilobases (kb). To reduce the size of the inserted DNA fragment of pYK40, the 15 kb HindIII fragment was subjected to a series of subclonings. A 6 kb subfragment was found to code for ${\beta}-xylosidase$ activity, and the recombinant plasmid was named pYK44. Southern hybridization analysis revealed that the cloned gene hybridized with 3.5 kb, 1.5 kb, and 1.0 kb of HindIII cleaved chromosomal DNA from Bacillus sp. YC-335. ${\beta}-xylosidase$ activity produced by recombinant E. coli was found to be 11 times higher than that produced by Bacillus sp. YC-335. Xylan was required to induce the production of ${\beta}-xylosidase$ in Bacillus sp. YC-335.

  • Chemical investigation on a colonial marine tunicate, Didemnum sp. led to the isolation of a series of indole alkaloids including a new (1) and two known metabolites (2-3). Based on the spectroscopic analysis including 1D and 2D NMR along with MS spectra, the structure of 1 (16-epi-18-acetyl herdmanine D) was elucidated as a new amino acid derivative. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by comparison of specific rotation with the known compound. The structures of compounds 2 and 3 were also identified as bromoindole containing compounds N-(6-bromo-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-L-arginine and (6-bromo-^1H-indol-3-yl) oxoacetamide, respectively, based on $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR data, MS data and specific rotation value. Their pharmacological potentials as antibacterial agents and FXR antagonists were investigated, but no significant activity was found. However, the structural similarity of compound 1 to compound 4 suggested the anti-inflammatory potential of compound 1.

  • Hesperidin, a flavanone present in citrus fruits, has been studied as potential therapeutic agents that have anti-tumor activity and apoptotic effects in several cancers, but there is no report about the apoptotic effect of hesperidin in human malignant pleural mesothelioma through the specificity protein 1 (Sp1) protein. We investigated whether hesperidin inhibited cell growth and regulated Sp1 target proteins by suppressing the levels of Sp1 protein in MSTO-211H cells. The $IC_{50}$ value of hesperidin was determined to be 152.3 ${\mu}M$ in MSTO-211H cells for 48 h. Our results suggested that hesperidin (0-160 ${\mu}M$) decreased cell viability, and induced apoptotic cell death. Hesperidin increased Sub-$G_1$ population in MSTO-211H cells. Hesperidin significantly suppressed mRNA/protein level of Sp1 and modulated the expression level of the Sp1 regulatory protein such as p27, p21, cyclin D1, Mcl-1, and survivin in mesothelioma cells. Also, hesperidin induced apoptotic signaling including: cleavages of Bid, caspase-3, and PARP, upregulation of Bax, and down-regulation of Bcl-$_{xl}$ in mesothelioma cells. These results show that hesperidin suppressed mesothelioma cell growth through inhibition of Sp1. In this study, we demonstrated that Sp1 acts as a novel molecular target of hesperidin in human malignant pleural mesothelioma.
