부교감신경 또는 교감신경섬유가 흰쥐 혀 미각샘의 구조와 분비기능에 미치는 영향을 조사할 목적으로 성체 흰쥐의 양쪽 혀인두신경 또는 혀밑신경을 절단한 후 혀 미각샘의 형태학적 변화를 3일부터 21일까지 관찰하였고, PSA, UEA I, GSL I $B_4$, ECL, DBA, SBA, HPA, SJA 및 sWGA의 9가지 렉틴을 이용한 렉틴조직화학을 실시하여 미각샘의 복합당질의 특성과 분비양상을 비교하였다. 혀인두신경을 절단한 혀 미각샘은 3일군부터 장액샘꽈리에서 세포질 공포가 나타났으며 10일군에서는 공포가 매우 커지고 미각샘의 구조가 급격히 퇴화되었다. 반면, 혀밑 신경을 절단한 혀 미각샘의 구조는 대조군에 비하여 형태학적 변화를 보이지 않았다. 렉틴조직화학의 결과 대조군에서 혀 미각샘은 ${\alpha}$-D-galactose, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 및 N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oligomer 성분의 복합당질을 합성하였고, 혀인두신경을 절단한 10일군부터 그 양은 급격히 감소하였다. 그러나, 혀밑신경을 절단한 혀미각샘의 복합당질 양상은 21일군까지 대조군과 차이를 보이지 않았다. 이러한 결과들은 부교감신경섬유를 포함한 혀인두신경이 흰쥐 혀 미각샘의 구조 유지와 분비기능에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있음을 제시한다.

Sialic acid is a sugar typically found at the N-glycan termini of glycoproteins in mammalian cells. Lec3 CHO cell mutants are deficient in epimerase activity, due to a defect in the gene that encodes a bifunctional UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase/ManNAc kinase (GNE). Sialic acid modification on the cell surface is partially affected in these cells. We have mutagenized Lec3 CHO cells and isolated six mutants (termed C2m) deficient in the cell surface expression of polysialic acid (PSA). Mutant C2m9 was partially defective in expression of cell-surface PSA and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) binding, while in the other five mutants, both cell-surface PSA and WGA binding were undetectable. PSA expression was restored by complementation with the gene encoding the CMP-sialic acid transporter (CST), indicating that CST mutations were responsible for the phenotypes of the C2m cells. We characterized the CST mutations in these cells by Northern blotting and RT-PCR. C2m9 and C2m45 carried missense mutations resulting in glycine to glutamate substitutions at amino acids 217 (G217E) and 256 (G256E), respectively. C2m13, C2m39 and C2m31 had nonsense mutations that resulted in decreased CST mRNA stability, and C2m34 carried a putative splice site mutation. PSA and CD15s expression in CST-deficient Lec2 cells were partially rescued by G217E CST, but not by G256E CST, although both proteins were expressed at similar levels, and localized to the Golgi. These results indicate that the novel missense mutations isolated in this study affect CST activity.

I examined the projection of glutamatergic neurons in the lateral reticular nucleus into ansiform (crus l and ll) and paramedian lobules in the rat cerebellum using immunocytochemical methods with antiserum against glutamate combined with WGA-HRP histochemistry. The projections of glutamatergic neurons from the lateral reticular nucleus to crus l were most extensive in number among the three injection cases and the majority of projections originated at the dorsal to dorsomedial region of the ipsilateral magnocellular nucleus. Glutamate-immunoreactive cells projecting to crus ll were less extensive in number than those projecting to crus l and were mainly localized at the dorsomedial portion of the ipsilateral magnocellular nucleus. Double-labelled neurons projecting to crus l or crux ll were also located at ipsilateral subtrigeminal as well as contralateral magnocellular nuclei. Glutamatergic neurons projecting to paramedian lobules were moderate in number and mainly located at the dorsal area of the ipsilateral magnocellular nucleus. A few double-labelled cells were also found at ipsilateral subtrigeminal or contralateral magnocellular nuclei. The present study suggests that glutamate-immunoreactive neurons at the dorsal to dorsomedial magnocellular division of the lateral reticular nucleus may participate in the excitatory control of target neuronal activities at ipsilateral, posterior hemispheric lobules of the rat cerebellum.

Lectin-conjugated praecoxin A is a compound, which is combined Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA) Lectin with praecoxin A and also known to have an anti-tumor activity. In our lab, in order to investigate its immune reaction other than the anti-tumor activity ever known, we examined cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-12 through their mRNA expressions, which are generally secreted by macrophage both in vivo and in vitro. To analyze, we used RT-PCR for total RNAs of macrophages. As a result, we obtained that both in vitro and in vivo, lectin-conjugated praecoxin A showed an interesting increase on IL-6 and IL-12 even though it may be little hard to say the conjugated form is absolutely more effective than that of lectin or praecoxin A alone for immune response activities. Those results suggest that the conjugated form may give an additional opportunity in a future therapeutic use over its immuno activation properties.

$SO_2$ 폭로군의 기관 상피층의 섬모에서 DBA 및 SBA는 50ppm 이하 $SO_2$ 폭로군에서는 대조군에 비해 증가하였으며 sWGA 및 UEA-1은 대부분의 $SO_2$ 폭로군에서 대조군에 비해 증가하였다. 섬모세포에서 LCA 및 Con A는 100ppm 및 200ppm $SO_2$ 폭로군에서 대조군에 비해 약간 증가하였다. 배상세포에서는 대부분의 렉틴의 반응성이 50ppm 이하의 $SO_2$ 폭로군에서는 증가하였다가 100ppm 및 200 ppm $SO_2$ 폭로군에서는 현저히 감소하였다. 장액선포에서는 LCA 및 Con A는 모든 $SO_2$ 폭로군에서 대조군보다 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 점액선포에서는 대조군에서 관찰되지 않았던 RCA-1은 50ppm 및 100ppm $SO_2$ 폭로군의 일부 선포에서 증가하였다. 위의 결과로 보아 $SO_2$는 기관에 심대한 병리조직학적 변화뿐만 아니라 glycoconjugates대사에 심대한 영향을 미쳐 심한 병변을 야기시킴을 알 수 있었다. 전반적으로 $SO_2$의 호흡기 영향은 고농도로 갈수록 심한 영향을 나타내었다. 저농도에서도 폭로 시간이 길어짐에 따라 나타나는 $SO_2$의 영향이 고농도와 유사한 경향을 나타내며 또한 모든 $SO_2$의 농도를 비교해보면 폭로 시간이 길어질수록 그 영향이 더 심하게 나타났다.

Age at first calving is an important trait for achieving earlier reproductive performance. To detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for reproductive traits, a genome wide association study was conducted on the 96 Hanwoo cows that were born between 2008 and 2010 from 13 sires in a local farm (Juk-Am Hanwoo farm, Suncheon, Korea) and genotyped with the Illumina 50K bovine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chips. Phenotypes were regressed on additive and dominance effects for each SNP using a simple linear regression model after the effects of birth-year-month and polygenes were considered. A forward regression procedure was applied to determine the best set of SNPs for age at first calving. A total of 15 QTL were detected at the comparison-wise 0.001 level. Two QTL with strong statistical evidence were found at 128.9 Mb and 111.1 Mb on bovine chromosomes (BTA) 2 and 7, respectively, each of which accounted for 22% of the phenotypic variance. Also, five significant SNPs were detected on BTAs 10, 16, 20, 26, and 29. Multiple QTL were found on BTAs 1, 2, 7, and 14. The significant QTLs may be applied via marker assisted selection to increase rate of genetic gain for the trait, after validation tests in other Hanwoo cow populations.

Lectin binding assay was conducted on 3 A. tamarense isolates (AT-A, AT-2 and AT-6). Fatty acid composition of all 3 isolates was analyzed, and total carotenoid content and $\beta$-carotene were also determined. AT-A and AT-2 treated with different lectins in this study showed the positive response, whereas potentially toxic AT-6 did not bind DBA lectin, regardless of different growth phase, but conjugated ConA, PNA, RCA, SBA, UEA and WGA. It is possible that DBA is a desirable method for rapid and easy discrimination of highly toxic A. tamarense. AT-A, AT-2 and AT-6 comprised saturated fatty acids (49.0-61.9%), monounsaturated fatty acids (8.0-20.5%) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (23.2-30.5%). In particular, 22:6 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid in AT-6 had a high abundance, compared with AT-A and AT-2. However, carotenoid content and $\beta$-carotene were not contributed to discriminate each isolate. Due to variability in biochemical composition at different isolates, possibly DBA and 22:6 (n-3) polyunsaturate fatty acid provide a good information for discrimination of AT-6.

Lectin-conjugated praecoxin A, which has developed as a missile antitumor drug, is the one that has conjugated with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), a kind of carbohydrate-binding protein (lectin) especially bound to melanoma. Praecoxin A is a kind of tannin extracted and purified from plants. Beside this direct antitumor effect as tannins, we have examined an activation of macrophage by lectin-conjugated praecoxin A. We also confirmed the gene expression of IL-1 $\beta$, both in vitro and in vivo. We added 1, 10, 100 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mι of lectin-conjugated praecoxin A, 10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mι of lectin, 10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mι of praecoxin A to normal murine macrophage and analyzed the extracted total RNAs by RT-PCR after 4, 8, 12, 24 hours. Our data demonstrated that lectin-conjugated praecoxin A increased IL-1$\beta$, mRNA expression in a dose dependent manner. However, the effectiveness of lectin-conjugated praecoxin A was not superior to lectin and praecoxin A.
